Chapter 739: They Want to Kill You! (2)

The huge orc covered in steel needle-like black fur specially took out a combined array formation. This combined array formation could condense their strength in a short period of time and play the role of one plus one greater than two. It was very suitable for them to attack. It could be said that under such a joint attack, they could even have the powerful combat strength to fight the Daolord.
“One more question.” The old man with three scabbards on his back frowned and said, “How can we quietly approach him without him sensing it?”
Because their current identities were all disciples of the Dao Ancestor, hence, they could sense each other’s location. They were not worried that they would not be able to find Xiao Shi. No matter where Xiao Shi was, they could clearly sense his location.
However, if all of them collectively attacked Xiao Shi, Xiao Shi would definitely sense it. In the current situation, once Xiao Shi discovered that they were all gathering towards him, he would definitely know that they had ill intentions. He would definitely think of a way to escape.
The silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord would also sense it. If the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord interfered, it would be very difficult for their encirclement to succeed.
In their opinion, the most ideal situation was no different from quietly approaching without Xiao Shi and the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord noticing. They did not give Xiao Shi any chance to prepare and caught him off guard.
The silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord could not provide support in a short period of time as well. This was the easiest way to kill Xiao Shi.
“I can block it for a short time.” The boy, with a sun pattern on his glabella, said.
Everyone’s eyes lit up. In this way, as long as Xiao Shi and the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord could not sense their location, they could launch a surprise attack and kill him.
At this moment, Xiao Shi’s realm and strength were not only increasing, his level of life had also undergone a qualitative change. He carefully sensed his Slaughter Dao. His Slaughter Dao was somewhat different from other Slaughter Dao.
Under normal circumstances, the Slaughter Dao was fixed in terms of power, strength, and so on. There would not be much fluctuation or change. However, his Slaughter Dao had an important characteristic that other Slaughter Daos did not have—Growth!
His Slaughter Dao could grow and strengthen continuously. The main way to grow and strengthen was through the number of kills. To put it simply, the more he killed, the stronger his Slaughter Dao would be.
This number of kills did not depend on the number of kills he had made in a short period of time, but on the total number of kills in his life. Apart from the number of kills, the strength and cultivation of the person he killed were also very important.
Now, in order to understand his Slaughter Dao more clearly, Xiao Shi simply manifested his Slaughter Dao.
With a thought, fine black threads instantly covered his entire body like meridians. Every black thread that appeared on his body represented his previous kill. Moreover, as he killed in the future, these black threads will continue to increase. Every black thread would bring him a powerful increase in combat strength.
One of the black threads was the most obvious among all the black threads. This was because this black thread represented the Daolord that Xiao Shi had once killed. The power contained in the black thread was the most shocking. It was far from what the other black threads could compare to.
“In other words, as long as I keep killing, especially those experts, my Slaughter Dao will become stronger and stronger!” Xiao Shi’s eyes lit up. Although the Slaughter Dao he controlled this time was only an inferior-class mortal Dao, he felt that with the growth of this Dao, once it grew up under his constant killing, it would definitely not be weaker than those superior-class mortal Dao.
In fact, when Xiao Shi controlled this Dao, he could completely upgrade it to a superior-class mortal Dao. But he thought about it carefully. He felt that he should still leave the spot of superior-class mortal Dao to the Dao that he needed to control in the future. In any case, the three Daos he could control had to be a Heavenly Dao, a superior-class mortal Dao, and an inferior-class mortal Dao.
No matter what, he needed an inferior-class mortal Dao. In that case, he might as well use the Slaughter Dao as an inferior-class mortal Dao.
Of course, the increase in his strength from the Slaughter Dao still needed Xiao Shi to verify it in actual combat. Now that he had successfully grasped the first Dao, he began to ponder about the other two Daos.
Next, he would master two Daos. One was superior-class mortal Dao, and the other was the Heavenly Dao. These two Daos would definitely not be simple.
Xiao Shi did not have any good thoughts right now. For the remaining two Daos, he did not intend to control the existing Dao. Instead, he was prepared to create his own Dao according to his own situation.
Since ancient times, only the Dao Ancestor and the leaders of the various eras could create the Dao. There had never been a Daolord who could create his own Dao. Even the most outstanding Daolord of the various eras could not create his own Dao.
But before Xiao Shi went to the Beginner Martial Era, he already had the thought of creating his own Dao. It was not that he was overestimating himself. His confidence mainly came from an item that had dropped when he first killed the Sages.
[Name: Dao Foundation]
[Type: Foundation Stone for Dao Creation]
[Grade: Sage]
[Introduction: This is the foundation and prerequisite for creating the Dao.]
[Remark: With a Dao Foundation, you will have the chance to create a Dao.]
With this item, Xiao Shi had the ability to create his own Dao. But just relying on a Dao Foundation was not enough to directly complete the creation of a new Dao. He still needed many Dao Origins.
“In other words, no matter what kind of Dao I create next, the Dao Origin is something I have to have.”
Xiao Shi was deep in thought. Just as he was thinking, he felt a jade slip in his storage space vibrate. This jade slip was given to him by the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord. Both parties used it for voice transmission.
Now, as Xiao Shi picked up this jade slip, Daolord Silver Eye’s voice immediately sounded from the jade slip. “Hurry up and come to me! I feel that… they want to kill you!”
“Hmm?” Xiao Shi frowned slightly. “What do you mean?”
The silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord immediately told Xiao Shi about the situation after Xiao Shi killed many Sages of the Wu Empire, causing the others to be unable to continue staying in the Wu Empire.
Even though these people did not reveal killing intent in front of the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord, he knew what they were thinking. So he immediately reminded Xiao Shi. “Come to the location I specified immediately. I’ve established a shelter here that can allow you to hide. This way, they won’t be able to sense your location.” The silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord said anxiously. He didn’t want to see Xiao Shi killed.
However, Xiao Shi’s eyes lit up. He had yet to think of hunting them, but they were asking for death? He was about to reject the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord’s good intentions.
Suddenly, he had a thought. He pondered over Daolord Silver Eye’s way of doing things. If he appeared fearless in front of him, this fellow would probably immediately inform the others not to send them to their deaths.
After all, to the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord, he was like a peace envoy. He did not want to see Xiao Shi die. Similarly, he did not want to see others die.
“I can’t alert the enemy.” Thinking of this, Xiao Shi immediately revealed a trace of anxiety. “Where is it? I’ll be right there!”
The silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord did not suspect anything. He immediately told Xiao Shi the location of the shelter and asked him to rush over as soon as possible..
