Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog-Chapter 402 - 265: Kill Through!

One person? Alone?

In the hall, the broad-shouldered, stout Great Tribe Chief Hu Heida’s eyes revealed an expression of total disbelief.

"Are you sure you saw clearly, is it really that Chen Ku from Qiu Dragon Mansion? And not some Grandmaster?" the Second Village Chief hoarsely questioned.

Daring to storm their Three Dragon Mountain alone, which had over a thousand brothers, required both prowess and bravery that should not belong to a mere junior.

Unless it was someone like that Grandmaster Qin Yuxian.

A Seventh Realm expert might have the confidence and ability to charge through thousands of armies alone.

"This... that youngster reported his name, claiming to be Chen Ku, wielding a stick and charging up the mountain. We don’t know if it’s truly the same person, but... the One Thought Cliff has already fallen."

The youngster anxiously spoke up:

"Maybe he’s already fighting at the Hundred Feet Ladder by now!"

The three Mountain Kings could no longer sit still.

"Hurry, quickly go to the mountain top to see."

The Great Tribe Chief’s heart trembled; his Three Dragon Mountain had several natural barriers, One Thought Cliff being one of them—built close to the cliffside—with a narrow path that usually allowed only two or three people to pass at a time.

Prior official armies had come for bandit suppression; he only needed to station a hundred and twenty brothers there to hold off thousands.

Now,

it was breached by one person.

If One Thought Cliff was overtaken, only the Hundred Feet Ladder was left, and beyond it lay Cloud-climbing Peak...

The three Chiefs did not dare delay in the slightest, immediately departing the hall to the watchtower position on Cloud-climbing Peak, overlooking from a height, able to see the steep path to the mountain top barely three or four miles away.

There was originally no mountain path there. After they occupied the mountain, they captured craftsmen and spent months constructing the mountain path, with two hundred soldiers and a hundred crossbowmen stationed there.

This kind of natural barrier was difficult for the official army to cross.

Yet under Hu Heida’s gaze, he saw below the ladder, a youth clothed in Silver Light Armor, draped in a civil and military robe, with hair hanging to his eyebrows, wielding a Coiled Dragon Staff, entering into their ladder path.

The long staff, glowing with a dark red light, resembled a black dragon spitting flames, or a giant python thrashing about, moving as if a wheel was turning...

Ah ah ah ah!!!

Every swing sweeps out, either smashing or pounding, exploding into a mass of flesh beneath the staff!

The two hundred soldiers swarmed him, only to be fiercely dashed in like a ferocious tiger into a flock of sheep, unable to get within a yard of him, forced to cry out, retreating again and again.

The three Chiefs watched in shock and terror.

Simultaneously, a thought surged in their hearts:

"This isn’t a youth; it’s clearly a flying general from the battlefield!"

Seeing the second natural barrier about to be breached by the youth wielding his staff.

"Release arrows! Quickly release arrows!!"

Even the Third Village Chief was urgently calling out, shouting down the mountain:

"Stop him!"

"Quickly, quickly, fetch my armor and weapon!" Hu Heida looked on anxiously and angrily; anxious because the youth was about to reach the stockade, and angry at the uselessness of the brothers he raised!

"Brother, we’ll go with you!"

The Third Village Chief was trembling with fear:

"But first, first let loose a wave of arrows below, wear down his Qi Power; if a few arrows hit, even if not, his stamina will be depleted, then when we strike, we might have a better chance!"

...

Chen Ku’s Coiled Dragon Staff, with the support of his Five Elements True Qi, its stick technique could be extended or shortened directly towards the second natural barrier.

Evil Qi reminders from the Transformation Diagram came one after another.

Including the Evil Qi from fighting up from the mountain foot, he had already killed over three hundred bandits in one breath, yet showed no trace of mental fatigue.

It was because he had already activated Cheng Qingniu’s [Killing Heart Method] while ascending, his mental state indifferent and ruthless, only a pursuit of mowing down the charge.

With Chen Ku’s movement technique and strength, even without using any stick technique, simply smashing and thrusting was beyond what ordinary bandits could withstand.

"Ghost!"

"Evil ghost that can’t be killed!!"

In less than half a teapot’s time, the surrounding fear-filled hoarse cries of bandits began to retreat, fleeing, like encountering serpents and scorpions!

They retreat, Chen Ku advances!

Gripping the Coiled Dragon Staff, he plunged forward ruthlessly, without mercy or compassion.

For a simple reason, even without the Killing Heart Method maintaining his mental state, Chen Ku understood clearly—the Jianghu was divided into White Dao and Black Path, while he did not deny few good things existed on the White Dao, the Black Path certainly had none.

Especially bandits occupying the mountain as kings, robbing houses—no need to worry about accidentally killing good people.

Moreover, if one does not kill, how can it be called suppressing bandits?

How can one achieve merit?

At this moment, under the mental state of the Killing Heart Method, striking without hesitation soon left only a handful of soldiers from the two hundred guarding the ladder.

Swish swish swish!!! 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

And at this time, arrows rained down incessantly from mid-air.

These were the Three Dragon Mountain archers, hidden along the ladder, bending bows and drawing arrows, instantly releasing a hundred arrows soaked in oil, pouring down towards him.

"Shoot him! Shoot him dead!!"
