Tang Shaoyang doubled the target with [Marking Shot], to twenty void creatures that managed to pass through the tornado grinder. At the same time, he added a little more heavenly energy to his arrow. Just a little more to try the limit of the arrow from the Divine Armory.
It was equipment from a skill, it could never match the creation of the skilled craftsmen. If he had to compare the quality of the bow, it should be around Ancient to Myth Grade Equipment. The golden arrow whistled through the air and pierced twenty heads. Looking at the twenty void creatures fell at the same time gave him a satisfying feeling. The feeling was addicting as he upped the number of the target up to forty.
He did not hesitate to add more heavenly energy, realizing that it would make the arrow faster. This time he picked the target at some distance. He wanted to make it like they were falling like a domino trick. The arrow meandered through the void creatures that were not the target. When the arrow stopped at the fortieth target, the first void creature fell to its death and was followed by the second.
Tang Shaoyang kept adding more targets to [Marking Shot] until he discovered the limit with the arrow. The arrow could only hit seventy-eight void creatures before the arrow broke into pieces. He tried to reduce the heavenly energy, but it only lowered the number up to sixty-one targets.
As he enjoyed himself with his new toy, the first void creature managed to stop the arrow with its bare hand. The void creature caught the arrow before the arrow pierced its head. The creature resembled a troll, bigger and the first void creature with minimal deformed parts.
Thanks to his arrow, Avyn, and Zara did not need to fight that much. It wasn't until they also saw the creature catch the arrow. Both exchanged glances, and Zara said it first, "It's mine!"
She did not wait for Avyn to say anything back as she formed a portal next to the troll. Coming out from the portal, holding two swords in her hand. The troll was around fifteen meters tall, she flew toward the neck and tried to cut it in one strike. The black-skinned troll raised its hand, covered in void energy, and deflected the sword.
After deflecting the sword, it was followed by a punch to Zara's body. The latter had been fighting the weak void creature and was careless when she attacked the troll. She was not expecting the counter and barely made a barrier around her body that immediately broke apart from the impact.
Zara flung backward and only stopped when the distance between them was ten meters. She swung her sword backward and killed the void creatures that jumped at her. She was surrounded by the void creatures right now. That small distraction was used by the troll, by the time she tried to find the troll, the troll was right above her.
The void energy flared in its hand as it punched the Goddess of Death. But Zara was more prepared; she formed a portal in front of him, connected to another portal where the other void creatures were. The punch was quite something, killing at least more than twenty void creatures.
The troll could not pull out his punch because it came from above. When its whole right army fully entered the portal, Zara closed the portal and cut the right arm. Then she formed a portal next to her and another one next to Avyn. She left through the portal, and at the same time, hundreds of spikes made of void energy formed where she was just now. The troll could not dodge the spake as it landed on the spikes.
"They are unexpectedly stronger than the one we fought earlier, but they are still the same mindless monster." Zara tapped the side of her forehead with her index finger, "They have the strength and instinct, but not that smart. If it's smart, it will not jump at me like that. That's suicide."
The creature saw the portal, and yet it still made a decision to jump at her. With such a big body, it would be hard to maneuver in the air like the monkey they fought earlier. Then she formed the spikes, and the troll was killing itself with such a move.
"There you go, another troll!" Tang Shaoyang found a similar troll that went through the tornado blade. This one was bigger in size, around twenty meters tall, and wore armor.
Avyn did not say anything as she formed a ten-meter-long ice spear. She then threw the ice spear toward the giant troll. The troll noticed the incoming ice spear and gathered the void energy in his right hand. It was the same way the previous troll manipulated the void energy to deflect Zara's sword. But it intended to catch the ice spear instead of deflecting the ice spear.
The spear ripped apart the troll's hand and pierced through its chest. As it pierced the chest, the ice bloomed like a flower and killed the troll instantly. The giant troll fell backward and was hit by the chaos blades. The troll's body was shredded into pieces, leaving behind the lower part.
"I see… we will face stronger void creatures as we go deeper. Let's pick up the pace!" Tang Shaoyang formed another nine hundred Chaos Blades, making it one thousand Chaos Blades.
The combination of Tang Shaoyang's arrow with Avyn and Zara took care of the stronger void creatures, then slaughtered the void creatures that went past through the blade tornado. They kept going until they arrived below the Void Gate, the cracked space.
As Tang Shaoyang said, they encountered stronger void creatures, but they were not that strong to the point that troubled them. They killed them all with a little bit more effort, but they still killed them with ease. The one thousand chaos blade proved to be more effective as fewer void creatures managed to pass through.
"It's still disappointing, but it doesn't matter. They are still good materials for my summoning." Tang Shaoyang was disappointed with how weak they were, but these void creatures were still good materials for him.
"Well well well, who do we have here?" A playful voice echoed. It was not Zara or Avyn's voice, and also not one of his spirits' voices.
Tang Shaoyang, Zara, and Avyn instantaneously looked up, and a figure floated right outside the blade tornado. It was a man with dark violet skin, unnatural purple, and black eyes, and long white hair. He had a smug smile, looking straight into Tang Shaoyang's eyes.
