Chapter 55 What's wrong with my leg?
"Walk!"
Without saying a word, Su Yu shouted and then turned and left. Feeling the slight tremor of the ground, Ju Zi, Wang Shaojie, and Ke Ke all realized that something was wrong.
They hurriedly took out their respective flying soul tools and flew in another direction, but it seemed that their flying soul tools had limited speed, and the roars of various soul beasts in the distance were getting closer and closer.
"Didn't Teacher Xuan give you any other soul tools? If this continues, I'll be caught up with sooner or later."
Su Yu, who was being carried through the air by Wang Shaojie, also felt helpless. After all, Xuan Ziwen was a peak level seven soul master. Surely Ye would prepare something for his student to protect himself.
For example, an all-terrain detection soul tool, or other protective soul tools. If you have any, take them out, bro.
Just as Su Yu was looking at Wang Shaojie with anticipation, Ke Ke's words poured cold water on him, chilling him to the bone.
Keke looked at the horde of small beasts behind her with lingering fear. "Teacher Xuan did give us soul tools, but last time, due to an accident, we had to have them repaired by Teacher Xuan, and many of the core formations malfunctioned. We didn't prepare that many this time, so..."
"So we just ran out unprepared, and now we can only wait for this wave of small beasts to dissipate?"
Although Su Yu doesn't need to exert much effort right now, feeling the approaching beast tide behind him, if they can't find a hiding place, they will surely perish under this beast tide.
Looking at the faint light still emanating from the distance, Orange calmly said, "Don't worry, we can rejoin the other students, accelerate at full speed, and use healing bottles if necessary. Let's go!"
The faint light in the distance, and the moving detection soul tool—although not an all-terrain detection soul tool, it didn't seem that complicated—were all observed by Ju Zi through the soul tool in her hand.
As the stench of blood gradually dissipated, the beast tide behind them thinned out, but a considerable number of soul beasts were still chasing after them. For soul beasts, soul masters were a tonic, after all, the flesh and blood of soul masters were incomparable to ordinary flesh and blood.
A quarter of an hour passed, and Wang Shaojie's breathing began to become somewhat unstable. While flying at full speed and carrying Su Yu, his energy expenditure was naturally greater than others.
Looking at the several wind blades hurtling towards him from behind, Su Yu was filled with despair. "Damn it, don't do this! I don't have a soul tool for flying! Please, no..."
Several wind blades pierced through Wang Shaojie's soul-guided protective shield, forcing Su Yu to break free from Wang Shaojie's soul-guided device. If he hadn't, he would have been cleaved in two by the wind blades.
"Luo Yu!"
"Wang Shaojie, what are you doing!"
"This is terrible! We need to save them quickly!"
A spherical soul tool appeared in Ju Zi's hand. With a flick of her wrist, she threw the soul tool directly to Su Yu. Fortunately, Ju Zi reacted quickly, but what happened the next moment left all three people present dumbfounded.
"Oh no! Luo Yu, dodge quickly! That's the Thousand-Year Soul Skill of the Three-Thousand-Year Gale Wolf!"
Looking at the several wind blades, and then at the spherical soul-guided protective shield in his hand that was still emitting a purple light.
At that moment, Su Yu's eyes widened like saucers, and even his face twitched. "What level is this soul tool?"
"Teacher Xuan hasn't given me the Level 4 or Level 5 certificates yet. You should take good care of yourself for now."
Fortunately, at least I have something to protect myself from, but can this thing really withstand the beast tide?
As the upper hemisphere of the spherical soul tool slowly rotated, Su Yu quickly grasped it in his hand, holding a level four soul tool protective shield, hoping it could alleviate his current predicament.
boom!
The spherical protective shield, which had just flown seven or eight meters, was hit by the wind blade. A violent roar suddenly rang out, and the spherical soul tool emitted a dazzling light at this moment. Not only were the beast tide below affected, but Wang Shaojie, Zimu, Ju Zi, and Ke Ke, who were flying in the sky, were also affected.
"You guys go first. I have a protective soul tool that Teacher Xuan gave me, so don't worry about me," Su Yu said to the group.
"No, Teacher Xuan said we have to protect you. If anything happens to you..." Orange said nervously.
"There's no time, you're leaving!"
The light of the soul-guided protective shield gradually faded, and Su Yu's figure continued to fall, watching as he plunged straight into the horde of beasts.
"Luo Yu..."
Orange's voice was eventually drowned out by the roars of the beast tide, and Su Yu could no longer be seen in their sight.
Dust billowed as the beast tide gathered once more, converging on Su Yu's location.
It's over, it's all over...
Wang Shaojie, Keke, and Ju Zi all had the same thought in their minds.
Su Yu has disappeared and ended up in the most dangerous beast tide...
How are we going to explain this to Luo Yu? Are we going to say that we abandoned Luo Yu and ran away because of the beast tide?
No, no, no, you absolutely can't say that, or their days will be over.
Looking at the chaotic horde of beasts below, Keke was sweating profusely and shouted anxiously, "What are you standing there for? Quickly go find someone to help! If anything happens to Luoyu, we'll all be in trouble!"
However, with the beast tide in chaos and Su Yu missing, there's absolutely no idea where to begin searching...
The three of them each chose a direction to search for rescue. Although they already had an answer in their hearts, they just didn't want to believe the fact.
What would happen to a second-ring Soul Master who falls into a small beast tide? You can imagine what the outcome would be.
But did Luo Yu really die?
No, in fact, Luo Yu was still completely protected by the explosion of the soul tool. Although the wind blades of the Gale Wolf hit the soul tool shield and caused a violent tremor, fortunately, no cracks appeared.
Su Yu is currently unaware that the soul-guided protective shield, which has already shown signs of weakness, may not be able to hold out until someone comes to his rescue.
Either Su Yu's soul guide shield is breached by the beast tide, and he fights desperately with the soul beasts in the tide before being eaten, or he is eaten after his soul power is exhausted. It is estimated that Su Yu will fall into a coma when his soul power is exhausted. In that case, he will probably pass away peacefully without any pain.
If Su Yu hadn't managed to break free from Wang Shaojie's grasp in time, thus saving half of his body, he would have been cut in half by those seven or eight wind blades and would have been swallowed by the Meng Po soup that very night...
What the hell is a surprise? This is a surprise!
On my very first adventure, I encountered a beast tide, and I was the only one swept away by it! Is there no justice in this world?!
However, the sound waves from the explosion did not travel very far. More students nearby were alerted by the beast tide. At the same time, due to the influence of the beast tide, more students also received distress signals and rushed towards where Orange was.
"Is it really that bad?"
Looking at the soul beasts that kept attacking his soul tool, there were ten thousand-year-old soul beasts and more than two hundred hundred hundred-year-old soul beasts.
Because Su Yu had fixed the soul tool to the back of the three-thousand-year-old Gale Wolf with a soul tool base, no soul beast dared to attack Su Yu for a time.
"Then let me see which guy dares to lay a hand on me!"
His mind was racing, and he knew that the current predicament could only be maintained for a while. Su Yu could guarantee that he could kill these ten thousand-year-old soul beasts, but he couldn't guarantee that it wouldn't attract other beast tides. After all, in the forest of soul beasts, once he was injured, his chances of survival would be greatly reduced.
Because you never know what kind of terrifying monsters your bloody scent might attract.
A dark room appeared, quickly enveloping Su Yu. Black mist filled the air, and a faint smell of blood slowly wafted out from the darkness.
…………
After half an hour of searching, Orange and her two companions still found nothing. Just as they were collapsing to the ground in despair, a student appeared before them, limping.
"Sun Mingjie, is there any trace of Luo Yu?"
"I can't do anything about it. There are just too many beasts tonight. They surged in the direction you pointed out. I guess it's your junior, Luo Yu..."
"this…………"
…………
Impossible. They don't believe that Luo Yu died in the beast tide. Since they haven't seen Luo Yu's body yet, they can't conclude that Luo Yu is dead!
"Ju Zi, let's ask the teacher for help. This is something we can't handle right now." Wang Shaojie forced himself to calm down. Who could have predicted such a turn of events?
Orange's mind was in turmoil. "We're all responsible for this, but who could have predicted that Luo Yu would let us go first? But if we don't leave, we'll all die in that beast tide. But I..."
"Orange, what should we do..." Keke clenched her fists. If Luo Yu hadn't chosen to fall into the beast tide and attract all the soul beasts' attention, they would all have died in that terrifying beast tide.
"I don't know, I don't know..."
Orange's eyes were bloodshot, and her hands gripped the hem of her clothes weakly. Why was this happening? Why...?
The three were lost in thought, their hearts filled with complex emotions.
As members of the royal family, how can they expect to escape at the cost of others' lives?
"Luo Yu, you better die! We don't want you to try to be a hero and then go and die!"
Wang Shaojie stood up again, still indignant, and said, "Let's go. I'll go ask Teacher Xuan for help. You guys go find the other students and get some information. Tell them if anyone saw Luo Yu. Keke, you take good care of Ju Zi. Everyone, cheer up! We haven't seen Luo Yu's body yet, which means Luo Yu hasn't met with any misfortune!"
"Fragmentation Storm!"
The protective shield ultimately failed to hold until the rescue arrived. Su Yu sped out of the shattered soul tool, his gaze sweeping over everything filled with danger.
He had long been prepared to escape alone; to rely on his companions to come and rescue him would be tantamount to gambling with his life.
"Awooo—"
With a roar from the few thousand-year-old Gale Wolves, the surrounding soul beasts also surrounded Su Yu, and dozens of wind blades, mixed with some mutated red wind blades, attacked Su Yu.
boom!
Su Yu immediately used teleportation to dodge the attacks of numerous soul beasts. In that instant, countless mirror fragments scattered in all directions.
"Sword, come!"
A longsword formed from fragments pierced the head of a hundred-year-old soul beast. The beast immediately let out a painful howl. With the help of the mirror image transfer granted by the soul bone, Su Yu instantly cleaved the beast's head in two.
A large amount of blood splattered, and the once clean uniform of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy was instantly stained with blood.
More than a dozen Gale Wolves pounced again, surrounding Su Yu completely. In their eyes, Su Yu's escape route was now blocked. However, a soul beast is a soul beast, especially since they were hundred-year-old soul beasts that had not yet developed intelligence.
"Mirror transfer!"
A faint light appeared, and Su Yu's figure vanished. The image before them startled the dozen or so hundred-year-old soul beasts that had surrounded them. The human had simply disappeared into thin air—this was clearly impossible!
"Illusory Shadow!"
A black mist spread out, enveloping dozens of wolves outside the encirclement. Blood-red light then appeared continuously within the mist, and within a few breaths, twelve Gale Wolves had already met their demise. The fragmented twin swords in Su Yu's hand pierced the Gale Wolves' bodies without any resistance.
The Thousand-Year Gale Wolves outside also realized something was wrong and took action, unleashing their Thousand-Year Soul Skills. In an instant, a large number of wind blades dispersed the mist.
The fog dissipated, but Su Yu was still nowhere to be seen. In their eyes, this human who had fallen into the beast tide should have been their food, but he appeared and disappeared like a ghost. If Su Yu hadn't always appeared among the Gale Wolves, preventing these thousand-year-old soul beasts from intervening, these ten thousand-year-old Gale Wolves would have already swarmed him.
Dust billowed, and two identical figures reappeared, their longswords slashing fiercely at the thousand-year-old soul beast among the wolf pack. Su Yu's task now was to minimize the danger. These hundred-year-old Gale Wolves had no ability to stop him, but the ten Gale Wolves that were staring intently at him might be a different story.
If it weren't for the fear of something unexpected happening, Su Yu wouldn't want to stay among the wolf pack any longer.
The longsword clashed with the claws of the Thousand-Year Gale Wolf, and a powerful force emanated from the two swords. The Thousand-Year Gale Wolf immediately showed an opening and was repelled by Su Yu. Just as Su Yu was about to continue his attack, the surrounding wolf pack immediately surrounded him. Some spat out wind blades, while others bared their fangs and pounced on Su Yu.
"Damn it, I underestimated these Gale Wolves! Since that's the case, I'll wipe out all of you hundred-year-old soul beasts first, and then let's see if you'll still retreat after such heavy losses!"
