The Legendary Man novel Chapter 1259

The black arrows, ensnared by the verdant life force, quickly disintegrate like sand.

Subsequently, the remnants of those arrows started to flow on the ground like water.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

A soft rustling sound rang out. The native cultivators looked down at the black dust on the floor, which was growing rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the dust transformed into numerous creatures over half a human’s height, resembling enormous cockroaches.

Swoosh!

Those giant beetles fluttered their wings and charged madly at those native cultivators, spewing disgustingly foul-smelling slime from their mouths. The unexpected disruption threw the indigenous cultivators into disarray.

“Now’s our chance!”

Stellario took the lead. Under his control, those beetles pulled away from the chaotic scene, flapping their wings and twisting their bodies clumsily as they rearranged themselves to serve as the quattro’s stepping stones.

As God Realm cultivators, they could easily travel by stepping on even branches or leaves, let alone those sturdy beetles.

As their figures dashed past atop the native cultivators, Jonathan took out a few grenades from his storage ring and hurled them downward.

Explosions sounded in their wake, followed by a chorus of angry curses.

“Hurry up! Those beetles won’t be able to kill God Realm cultivators. They can, at most, buy us some time by creating disturbances. If we let them catch up to us, we’ll be truly done for.”

The top of the mountain measured several hundred meters high, but the actual climbing distance was significantly longer.

Moreover, those in pursuit were also moving at high speed.

The natives’ physical prowess was extraordinary, to begin with. At that moment, they had rested sufficiently while waiting for Jonathan and his party’s arrival. Hence, those indigenous cultivators swiftly closed the gap to within twenty to thirty meters behind the quattro.

Jonathan gazed at the steep mountainside ahead, figuring they would undoubtedly have to slow down upon reaching the unfavorable terrain.

By then, those native cultivators, who were already close, would catch up with them.

“You three go on. I’ll cover you!” Jonathan said while thrusting a stream of spiritual energy from both hands, propelling the trio upward to the mountaintop.

“Mr. Goldstein!” Hayden exclaimed with his eyes widened.

Meanwhile, Merilyn silently grabbed Hayden’s and Stellario’s shoulders and exerted force to push the duo up. “I’ll go relieve him!”

Brandishing her spear, Merilyn launched herself upward from the mountain wall past two knife-wielding opponents. Kill!

Her spear glinted as she stabbed downward.

At the same time, Jonathan cast a large spiritual net at the crowd below.

“Merilyn, hold them off for a few moments for me!” Jonathan landed on the steep slope, his feet digging deep into the hard rock.

Without uttering a word, Merilyn used her spear to impale all the cultivators trapped in Jonathan’s net. She then transfixed her spear into the mountainside and yanked hard on the handle, using her spear as a slingshot to stop her descent entirely.

Her body turned into a blur as she traversed another twenty meters or so and landed in front of Jonathan.

The mountainside was incredibly steep, almost at a right angle.

Therefore, the two would have to dig their feet into the stone to remain upright.

From their point of view, their pursuers appeared as if they were sprawled on the ground.

A few blade-wielding opponents attacked. Merilyn parried their weapons, not letting a single blow reach Jonathan.

Meanwhile, Jonathan was continuously gathering and channeling spiritual energy into the mountainside below his feet.
