Chapter 14 Yin Xin's Joy

Elder Yin Xin cut off the sound transmission with Supervisor Zhou Shengtai. He could not help but laugh out loud, drawing puzzled gazes from the surrounding enforcement Disciples.

"Why is Elder Yin so happy?"

"Who knows."

Elder Yin Xin glanced at his subordinates, his expression turning stern, and he said coldly: "Silence! Stay focused!"

The subordinates were so startled they shivered, lowered their heads, and continued working.

Elder Yin Xin looked up again, focusing his attention on the projection Formation Plate of Yun Bai.

At this moment, Yun Bai had just finished a one-sided slaughter of the Demon Birds.

"Very good, that's it," Yun Bai thought to himself.

He piloted his flying boat as if strolling through a courtyard high in the sky. Manipulating his Flying Sword was as natural as moving his own fingers and arms; it was effortless. He was confident that even if a dozen Peak First Realm Demon Birds surrounded him, he could easily annihilate them!

"I can now precisely manipulate fifteen Flying Swords. If I concentrate fully, my limit should be eighteen. But there is no need for me to push myself that hard."

Although he could manipulate eighteen Flying Swords simultaneously, it consumed a massive amount of his Divine Sense and energy. This was disadvantageous for completing his "three-day monster clearing" mission, which required sustained combat.

"Demon Birds are usually in groups of three or five; the largest group I've encountered so far is eight. Ten Flying Swords are enough." Yun Bai weighed the options in his mind and arrived at the number "ten." At the same time, Xiao Liu also provided the same answer after some calculations.

Ten Flying Swords. With one fewer, hunting efficiency dropped significantly; with one more, hunting efficiency did not improve much, but the consumption of Divine Sense increased drastically.

"Next, I will try to fuse the Daoist Thunder Technique into my Flying Swords." Yun Bai's restless heart could no longer be contained.

Ever since his Thunder Technique reached Minor Achievement, he had not truly tried it out.

"My current hunting speed is already at the limit under normal circumstances, yet I have absolutely no confidence in surpassing Brother Zhou. Perhaps he has already hunted over a hundred. If I want to go further, I can only rely on the Thunder Technique."

According to the classics Yun Bai had consulted, fusing the Thunder Technique not only significantly increased the lethality of the Flying Swords in terms of power but also enhanced their speed!

If the speed and power of the Flying Swords were great enough, Yun Bai could try to manipulate the Flying Swords outside the range of his Divine Sense control, launching them like cannonballs.

Although the Flying Swords would lose maneuverability and their power would drop significantly once they left the Cultivator's Divine Sense control area, the boost from fusing the Thunder Technique could partially offset this.

Yun Bai's strategy was to use this method to increase the range of the Flying Swords and ensure that their power could instantly kill monsters.

As long as the Flying Sword's speed was fast enough, the maneuverability of changing direction flexibly in the air could be partially sacrificed. As long as the Flying Sword's power was great enough, even if some damage was lost, it could still guarantee an instant kill on a monster.

This was the "brute force" approach. Only someone like Yun Bai would think of such an unconventional strategy. Ordinary Cultivators simply didn't have the conditions for it.

Like other Grade B teams, they relied on firearms and Spirit Treasures to kill enemies. However, Demon Birds above the Late Stage of the First Realm had already cultivated scales capable of weakening damage, and their bone and muscle strength had also greatly increased.

In many cases, the damage from firearms was slightly insufficient, and the attack range of Spirit Treasures controlled by First Realm Cultivators was limited. Therefore, many Grade B teams were eager to engage in close-quarters combat when killing aerial monsters.

However, the cunning Demon Birds had long since figured out the Human Race's tactics; they knew that if they couldn't win, they would scatter and flee. They would then launch surprise attacks and harassment for revenge when the Human Race relaxed, which could be considered a guerrilla warfare strategy.

Monsters also communicated with each other. If a tactic was used too often, the monsters would communicate and learn among themselves, eventually developing countermeasures.

It was only when they encountered someone like Yun Bai that things changed. When the Demon Birds saw that Yun Bai was just a lone Innate First Realm Human Race member, they thought he was easy to bully. But they never expected to be killed by his long-range methods before they could even get close.

Often, the monsters were killed by Yun Bai before they even had a chance to issue a warning and pass the message along.

Xiao Liu and Yun Bai had long since realized this, so Yun Bai was constantly updating his tactics while hunting tirelessly everywhere. He was worried that the monsters would recover and run as soon as they saw him from afar. If that happened, his hunting efficiency would definitely plummet to the bottom.

"Central Zhenxing, Yuan Gang clear liquid. Eight Dragons gather at the shelter, Yin light pours out. High Immortal Zi Ce, Red Phoenix white wings. Transforming into all phenomena, merging with my traces..." Yun Bai chanted, and what he was reciting was the "Thunder Rising Incantation."

At the same time, his Clone manipulated the Flying Sword, attempting to generate a trace of lightning power on it.

He stared intently at the blade of the Flying Sword. He saw faint electric arcs appearing on it, accompanied by a crackling sound.

"Is it working?" Yun Bai felt excited. He had actually succeeded on the first try!

He saw the sound of electric arcs on the Flying Sword becoming increasingly distinct, with lightning flickering across the blade.

The first, the second, the third... one by one, the Flying Swords began to emit lightning. Yun Bai tried bringing the Flying Swords closer, and the lightning between them actually linked up, forming a large net of electricity composed of the Flying Swords.

"It worked, it worked!" Yun Bai was overjoyed.

Yun Bai used the Formation Plate on the flying boat to lock onto the next target of monsters.

"Kill!" Yun Bai thought.

More new monsters were about to suffer.

In the blink of an eye, Yun Bai, carrying the power of thunder, plunged straight into the flock of birds.

The scene was chaotic for a moment. The originally calm monsters were terrified by the sudden thunder and scattered in all directions.

The thunder on the Flying Swords emitted a dull, loud boom in the air. Some Demon Birds were struck, letting out shrill screams, while others barely escaped, only to panic and crash into Yun Bai's Flying Swords the next second.

In just a moment, another group of Demon Birds was wiped out.

The air was filled with a strange smell.

The overflowing scent of blood, the stench of the Demon Birds, and the pungent smell of burning were all mixed together, making one feel uncomfortable.

"Again!" Yun Bai's eyes lit up. This Thunder Technique certainly didn't disappoint him. If he tried a few more times, his hunting speed would definitely be able to improve further.

On the other side, Supervisor Zhou Shengtai was also killing crazily.

A huge scroll floated in front of him, projecting a phantom image of mountains and rivers into the Void Realm, covering a hundred meters around him. As long as he approached the Demon Birds, they would lose their senses and crash into his flying boat, allowing him to slaughter them at will.

But Supervisor Zhou Shengtai was still uneasy; he would occasionally transmit his voice to ask Elder Yin Xin: "Old Yin, how many has he killed now?"

"He has already killed over a hundred, five fewer than you."

"Hahaha, very good, very good. Compared to me, he's still a bit green." Supervisor Zhou Shengtai laughed heartily and hurried to the next location.

A moment later, Supervisor Zhou Shengtai asked again.

"Two fewer than you."

"Hmph, this kid is biting close. It seems I need to step it up." Supervisor Zhou Shengtai thought to himself.

Supervisor Zhou Shengtai gritted his teeth and rushed to the next location.

A moment later.

"How many does he have now?"

"One more than you."

"How is that possible! How did he suddenly overtake me?" Supervisor Zhou Shengtai was so angry his teeth itched. "How did a First Realm kid like him manage that!"

"You have basically exhausted all your methods now. But he hasn't; he used a Daoist Thunder Technique to kill the monsters from hundreds of meters away." Elder Yin Xin saw Supervisor Zhou Shengtai jumping with anxiety and couldn't help but sigh. He was also shocked by Yun Bai's god-like speed of improvement.

He had been paying close attention to Yun Bai's actions, so naturally, he saw the progress in Yun Bai's tactics and techniques clearly.

A true Genius! This was his evaluation of Yun Bai.
