Starforce Warriors

Chapter 250: Grade Five Bull Demon

Chapter 250: Grade Five Bull Demon

What was Li Xiaofei planning to do? His thoughts were simple. If the enemy could advance, so could he. Why should he, a proud warrior of Great Xia, be confined to the city walls to passively wait for the star beasts to attack?

He could fight back. He could charge into the beast horde. Killing ordinary, cannon-fodder star beasts had no meaning; his target was the higher-grade star beasts. He intended to hunt down the advanced star beasts that were commanding their respective groups. That way, he could instill some fear in them.

He was strong enough that beast horde tactics were meaningless against him. Killing these lower-grade star beasts was as effortless as mowing grass. It wouldn’t even deplete his starforce qi.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

He unleashed the Six Meridian Divine Sword with a casual flick of his fingers. A faint golden dragon shadow, accompanied by a barely audible sword hum and dragon roar, sliced smoothly through the air, cutting down star beasts like grass.

After six or seven leaps, Li Xiaofei had already penetrated three kilometers into the wilderness. Ahead of him, a twenty meter tall third grade star beast known as the Explosive Bear let out a furious roar as it locked onto Li Xiaofei. It began to charge at him.

As it roared, its entire body, covered in reddish-black fur, suddenly ignited into burning black flames. It began to grow taller. Twenty-five meters, thirty meters, thirty-five meters...

This was the Explosive Bear species’ innate ability, Blazing Berserk. It could unleash more than six times its usual strength.

“Die, beast!” Li Xiaofei shouted.

He leaped into the air and stomped down with his foot.

“Grarrr...”

The third grade Explosive Bear had just begun to jump when it was immediately slammed back down by Li Xiaofei’s powerful kick. It crashed heavily to the ground with a pitiful scream, as its body exploded with a thunderous bang.

Beast bones and blood shot out in all directions like a rain of arrows. It was utterly destroyed, without even putting up a fight.

Cheers erupted from the distant city walls. Such a raw display of violent strength was a breathtaking spectacle. After Li Xiaofei’s successful strike, he didn’t bother to look back. His eyes locked onto another third grade star beast, the Tiger Tail, a thousand meters away.

With just two leaps, he descended from the sky and delivered a crushing kick that tore through the agile star beast, sending a shower of blood raining down. The surrounding beast horde trembled in fear. The ordinary first and second grade star beasts wailed and turned to flee in terror.

“This is just a warm up,” Li Xiaofei laughed heartily.

He was now feeling more savage than the star beasts themselves. He continued to leap and crash into the sea of beasts, leaving massive spiderweb-like craters hundreds of meters in diameter on the ground.

Any third grade star beast that caught his attention was marked for death. In less than ten minutes, he had brutally killed more than forty third grade star beasts. These third grade star beasts were the squad leaders of the horde and field commanders of the beast tide army. They were responsible for maintaining the formations and positions of the beast horde. After Li Xiaofei systematically took them down, the once orderly beast tide quickly descended into chaos.

Countless warriors on the distant city walls watched with their blood boiling and eyes brimming with tears. It was exhilarating and so unbelievably satisfying. In recent days, although the Goddess Ye Liuying and a few other powerful military figures had ventured outside the city to hunt high-grade star beasts, those actions were mere fleeting moments.

None of them matched the sheer, unbridled violence of Li Xiaofei's rampage. He was practically steamrolling a beast horde. The morale of the human army and the warriors on the city walls soared.

Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp...

From the depths of the wilderness, a strange fox's cry suddenly echoed. The sound wasn’t particularly loud, yet it possessed an eerie penetrative ability. It pierced through the countless roars and growls of the star beasts and reached the ears of every living being inside and outside the city walls with crystal clarity.

In the next instant, something unusual happened. The star beasts surrounding Li Xiaofei suddenly began to retreat. In the blink of an eye, a thousand-meter-wide empty space formed around him.

Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp...

The fox's cry echoed again. Li Xiaofei's heart stirred. It was the Yinji Moon Fox! This had to be the cry of the fifth grade star beast, the mastermind behind all this. It was starting to command from the shadows.

Li Xiaofei tilted his head, trying to locate the source of the sound. If possible, he wanted to take a risk and see if he could track down and eliminate that cunning fox. Ever since the Yinji Moon Fox had been injured by the Goddess, it had never shown itself again for fear of being caught by the Goddess again.

But Li Xiaofei didn’t have the same level of fame as the Goddess. If this fox let its guard down even slightly and revealed its location, he could take advantage of the situation and strike.

However, in the very next moment, Li Xiaofei realized that his plan was doomed. The ground beneath him suddenly began to shake violently.

Boom, boom!

The ground shook like a giant drum being struck by a massive hammer. A terrifying, primal aura of death emanated from the depths of the wilderness.

Li Xiaofei’s eyes narrowed. He saw purple lightning shoot into the sky just a hundred meters to the southeast. It looked like an ocean suspended above the earth. A colossal hundred meter tall star beast emerged from the wilderness.

It had the body of a human as it walked upright, but it was covered in thick, purple-black fur and had the head of an enormous bull. Its twisted horns looked like the winding mountain ranges of hell. The ground quaked with every step it took

This creature was the most powerful being Li Xiaofei had ever encountered—a monstrous bull-headed giant, its body wrapped in purple lightning, exuding an apocalyptic, ferocious energy as if it were a demon from the netherworld.

The Purple Thunder Sky-Crashing Unihorn Bull Demon! The second fifth grade star beast mentioned in the intelligence reports had appeared outside the base city. It had shown itself far sooner than expected!

Li Xiaofei was momentarily stunned, but then a look of ecstatic joy appeared on his face. This was perfect. He had been worrying about finding it, but now it had come right to. It was time to see how formidable a fifth grade star beast truly was.

According to legend, fifth grade star beasts were already intelligent beings. They possessed intelligence on par with humans, were high-level life forms, and naturally had immense strength. They would undoubtedly have an Inscribed Treasure Bone in their bodies that granted them extraordinary combat power.

Li Xiaofei stood his ground. He activated his blood and qi, gathering his strength. His state surged to its peak as he calmly waited for the Purple Thunder Sky-Crashing Unihorn Bull Demon to approach.

At that moment, from the distant city walls, he heard Ding Longao's voice.

“Li Xiaofei, get the fuck back right now!”

Even the commanding officer was swearing now. He was clearly deeply concerned about President Li’s safety.

But Li Xiaofei threw his head back and laughed heartily. “Today, watch me slay a fifth grade star beast!”

His bold declaration echoed up into the sky as he began his transformation. A vast, ocean-like qi erupted from his body, radiating outward in all directions. The ground beneath him shook as dust and debris were whipped up.

Li Xiaofei’s body swelled instantly as he grew into a six-meter-tall figure with a monster-like appearance. His outer clothing shredded and exploded off him, the fragments fluttering away like butterflies.

However, the ultra-high elasticity combat suit he had specially ordered from the light-network remained intact, fitting snugly over most of his body, ensuring that Li Xiaofei wasn’t running naked in front of countless onlookers.

Scarlet blood energy billowed around him like a fierce flame, enveloping his form. He had entered his second form. This was the first time Li Xiaofei had activated this form since merging his ninety-nine qi vortices into one, and it was far more powerful than when he had refined fifty qi vortices.

In his fully transformed state, he radiated a terrifying aura and ferocity that even surpassed that of the star beasts.

“What...?”

Ding Longao’s pupils contracted sharply. The surge of power emanating from Li Xiaofei left him utterly stunned.
