Roars echoed as tens of thousands of Fierce Beasts reached the bottom of the city walls.
Chen Fan remained calm, his attention not on the Beast Tide below, but within his Elixir Field and Sea of Qi.
The two thousand-plus Sword Qis behind him each consumed around ten thousand points of True Qi. In other words, after condensing this many Sword Qis, his True Essence was exhausted.
He did this intentionally.
Firstly, even without the support of True Qi, his Physical Attributes had reached more than three hundred thousand points, making it hard even for a full-force blow from a Commander-level Fierce Beast to injure him.
Secondly, he wanted to see the recovery effect of the Longevity Technique (Water).
The facts proved the recovery effect was indeed amazing. In just two seconds, the exhausted True Qi in his body increased by more than twenty thousand; the True Qi Amount recovered each second was nearly ten thousand.
"If I had more True Qi, the recovery speed could be even faster."
Chen Fan’s eyes revealed a look of anticipation.
The consumption unable to catch up with the recovery—this might not be an impossible wish.
In the next moment, he glanced downwards and moved his mind.
The two thousand-plus Sword Qis behind him seemed to gain life, emitting a faint humming sound, then flew downward.
The Sword Qis moved extremely fast. The Fierce Beasts closest to the city walls were still maintaining their charging posture.
With a flash of white light,
huge heads fell to the ground, crimson blood gushing out from their severed necks, and their bodies collapsed only after running a certain distance.
In the blink of an eye, over ten thousand Fierce Beasts were decapitated.
The two thousand-plus Sword Qis had depleted less than twenty percent.
This scene utterly stunned everyone on the city walls.
Were they dreaming?
So many Fierce Beasts, some of which were Elite-level Fierce Beasts, all dead within an instant?
And how many bullets had they previously used to kill this many Fierce Beasts?
"Roar!"
From a distance came an angry roar,
somewhat different.
Clearly, it was one of the three Commander-level Fierce Beasts.
From the beginning, they had been standing far outside the range of artillery fire, and now, they stood less than twenty miles from Anshan City, seemingly with rage burning in their eyes.
They had thought that capturing this small human city would be a piece of cake, and indeed, things had progressed just as they expected. Some damage along the way was also normal.
But just as they were about to secure victory, something unexpected happened.
On the city walls, there was actually a powerful human warrior.
Someone swallowed and said.
"I think so too. In this short while, haven’t over eighty to a hundred thousand Fierce Beasts died to those Sword Qis?"
"Yeah, I’m dumbfounded; are those beasts idiots? They know they’re going to die if they charge forward but still keep rushing in?"
"What do you know? Those Fierce Beasts are dumb; they lack intelligence. Only the three Commander-level Fierce Beasts have some smarts, but compared to us humans, they’re far inferior."
"Exactly. Besides, isn’t it better this way? If they were as smart as humans and knew how to evade, they wouldn’t be so easy to kill."
"Absolutely."
Many people nodded continuously.
"But on the other hand," someone raised their head, looking at Chen Fan with admiration, "this Chairman Li of ours is incredible. His skills are like those of Immortals in Xianxia novels, slaying Fierce Beasts as if they were slicing vegetables."
"Yeah, we put in so much effort and exhausted our ammunition to kill and injure tens of thousands of Fierce Beasts. But Chairman Li, in just a few minutes, killed nearly double that."
"No wonder he’s the chairman of the Awakened Association, so powerful."
Praise filled the air.
In the distance, Sun Wei and the others felt something odd as they listened.
If they were not mistaken, this Sword Qi should be a Martial Artist’s technique, right? How come the chairman of the Awakened Association is also a Martial Artist?
"I’ve heard that top-tier Awakeners are also Martial Artists. I was skeptical before, but seeing it with my own eyes today, I know it’s true," Sun Wei said with a bitter smile.
