At a corner outside the shopping center, dozens of Martial Guards were trapped inside by hundreds of Sea Sirens, none had arrived yet.
Zhou Leng looked towards the vicinity again, scattered battles were still ongoing, he took out the Apprentice Martial Guard Token and placed it on himself.
Instead of charging towards the encircled Martial Guards, he followed the Martial Guard Code and rushed towards the scattered individuals engaged with Sea Sirens.
Zhou Leng delivered a flying kick, sending a Sea Siren's head flying off from behind.
"Follow me, let's kill the Sea Sirens together, being isolated increases the chance of dying."
The young person battling the Sea Sirens glanced at the Martial Guard Token on Zhou Leng's chest, then at the surrounded Martial Guards, and nodded forcefully.
Subsequently, Zhou Leng swept through the nearby scattered Sea Sirens like autumn leaves, gathering over thirty people and charging towards the besieged Martial Guards.
Zhou Leng had long observed those Sea Sirens, three Vitality Stage Sea Sirens were blocked by three Martial Guard experts, one of whom was Deputy Captain Zeng Lanli from the previous joint capture of Demon Worshipers.
Among the remaining Sea Sirens, a quarter were in the Body Refining Stage, the rest were in the Blood Transporting Period.
The overall strength was crushing the encircled Martial Guards.
A Sea Siren issued commands, separating more than fifty Sea Sirens, charging towards Zhou Leng's team.
"Do not be afraid, they are all ordinary Sea Sirens. Prepare defenses and create hunting opportunities for me."
With Zhou Leng saying this, the others responded in unison.
They witnessed Zhou Leng's bravery firsthand, even a Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren was killed by Zhou Leng in a surprise attack.
A normal Early Stage Body Refining person couldn't even kill a Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren with three consecutive punches to the back.
"I'll hold off that Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren." A slightly chubby middle-aged man followed closely behind Zhou Leng, he was the only Late Stage Body Refining person in the team.
As Zhou Leng walked, he said, "You go first, attract the attention of that Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren, I'll follow up."
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Alright!"
As he spoke, he surprisingly surpassed Zhou Leng, charging towards the Late Stage Sea Siren.
The Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren directly confronted the middle-aged man.
The people behind watched Zhou Leng's back, some sighed, some were helpless.
But no one blamed Zhou Leng.
After all, expecting an Early Stage Body Refiner to face a Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren was still too much.
At the moment the middle-aged man engaged with the Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren, he suddenly felt the wind rushing from above.
He glanced out of the corner of his eyes and saw Zhou Leng leaping high, surpassing the Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren.
Using the Sea Siren as a pillar, he stepped on its head, stepping over more with each foot.
The Sea Sirens' heads either burst open or were stepped into their chest cavity, falling one after another.
The people behind saw Zhou Leng take one with each step, like a heavenly killing god.
More than fifty Sea Sirens gathered together, possessing formidable strength, but facing Zhou Leng who had just perfected the Flying Cloud Leg Technique.
Under the Mid-Stage Body Refining, beneath Zhou Leng, one kick led to death.
Unable to hide, block, or escape.
Zhou Leng was airborne like a crane, stepping on Sea Siren heads, running back and forth among the Sea Siren team, killing more than half of them.
The others followed, counter-encircling the Sea Siren squad.
Zhou Leng flipped over suddenly, using the Lightweight Skill, silently appearing behind the Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren.
Great River Entering the Sea, seemingly ordinary, directly striking the back.
The Sea Siren's heart suddenly stopped, vision darkened, falling straight forward.
The middle-aged man was prepared, punching the Sea Siren's neck.
With a crack, shattering the Sea Siren's neck bone.
The two continued to attack, tearing off the Sea Siren's head, turning back to the others, killing the remaining Sea Sirens.
"Thank you for coming to rescue... Zhou Leng?" Zeng Lanli shouted.
Zhou Leng loudly said, "Captain Zeng, you hold off the three Vitality Stage ones, we'll handle the rest slowly."
"Alright! Everyone listen up, hold off the Sea Siren experts. Reinforcements will arrive soon!"
The Martial Guards in the corner were few in number, but experienced, the Sea Sirens couldn't handle them at the moment.
Another team of Sea Sirens charged forward, this time exceeding a hundred in number.
"Retreat to the corner!" Zhou Leng said.
The crowd leaned against the shopping center wall, avoiding encirclement.
The Sea Sirens came fiercely, Zhou Leng said to the middle-aged man, "Let me try the Late Stage Body Refining Sea Siren this time."
"Be careful." The middle-aged man lightly nodded.
Zhou Leng beckoned to the Late Stage Blue-skinned Sea Siren, speaking in Demon Language, "Dare to fight me one-on-one?"
"Step back." The Blue-skinned Sea Siren said, stopping in place, the other Sea Sirens cleared a path.
Zhou Leng raised both arms, stepping with Flying Crane Technique, slightly bending back, lowering the center of gravity.
Like lightning traversing the sky, he swept past the other Sea Sirens, charging towards the Late Stage Blue-skinned Sea Siren.
Three major groups of Sea Sirens, Fish Demon, Fish-man, Blue-skinned Sea Siren.
Fish Demons appeared as fish.
Fish-men had a fish body standing upright with human-like hands and feet.
Blue-skinned Sea Sirens, looked like humans draped in fish scales, fins, and webbed feet.
Blue-skinned Sea Sirens had lesser power and defense than Fish Demons, lesser spell prowess than Fish-men, but were most comprehensive and intelligent, having the most Demigods among their tribes.
In actual combat, they were stronger, firmly ruling the entire Sea Siren clan.
Even on land, the strength of Blue-skinned Sea Sirens was quite remarkable.
Zhou Leng, having consumed so many pills, had a wave of overflowing power within, cultivation alone couldn't fully exert it, instinctively desiring a vibrant battle.
In his eyes, flames blazed fiercely.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren was tall, exceeding 2.2 meters, grinning, exposing sharp teeth. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩
First kill the leading human in front, thoroughly collapsing human morale, then it would be easy.
Around him, water vapor quickly condensed, forming a set of armor.
Unlike those Blue Sirens and Fish-men who had been exerting themselves, he had been conserving mana.
Zhou Leng initially threw punch feints, later abandoning his usual Overlapping Waves Palm, swaying left and right, kicking towards the Blue-skinned Sea Siren like a half-moon across the front.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren stepped back.
Zhou Leng stepped forward, kicking towards the Blue-skinned Sea Siren's lower leg.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren moved sideways to dodge, but Zhou Leng's left leg suddenly thrust forward, while his right leg kicked upwards.
The step switched to a kick, connecting as smoothly as flowing water, the power undiminished, showing no flaws.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren lifted its left arm to block, while its right hand reached for Zhou Leng's ankle.
Zhou Leng kicked solidly, then swiftly withdrew his leg to avoid the Sea Siren's right hand.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren staggered from the kick, with three pieces of blue scales shattered from its forearm, sending a sharp pain through its body.
The Sea Siren was shocked in its heart; this strength was truly of the Late Stage of Body Refining.
But this person's aura was only at the Early Stage of Body Refining.
"A human genius..." It felt a thrill of surprise, raising both arms to guard, charging straight at Zhou Leng.
Over the years, the Sea Sirens had been learning human martial arts, but in a real fight, the best tactic was always close-range assault, using physical superiority to overwhelm the opponent.
Zhou Leng was intent on honing his leg techniques against the Sea Siren, crouching low and sweeping his right leg horizontally.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren leapt lightly, but Zhou Leng rose, launching a kick.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren blocked mid-air with a leg, landed on the ground, and retreated a few steps before advancing again.
The fists and palms clashed, legs and feet collided.
The two exchanged blows for forty to fifty moves, showing no flaws, evenly matched in strength.
Under their feet, the ground was littered with scales.
Zhou Leng's body was covered in bruises and purples.
Soon, Zhou Leng had gauged the strength of the Sea Siren at the Late Stage of Body Refining.
The opponent's body was too strong, relying on True Qi alone was slightly insufficient.
The fist and palm techniques lacked power.
To win, leg techniques were the best choice.
Soon, Zhou Leng used the Flying Cloud Leg Technique for attack, with Overlapping Waves Palm Technique for defense, fighting more and more smoothly.
On the other side, the more the Blue-skinned Sea Siren fought, the more alarmed it became.
This human was already bruised and even had open wounds, yet seemed completely unaffected.
But its own injuries began to affect its ability to fight.
Especially since this wasn't underwater; once the scales and skin were damaged, without sufficient water replenishment, stamina would gradually decline.
By the hundredth move, Zhou Leng advanced, forcing the Blue-skinned Sea Siren to continuously retreat.
The outcome was beginning to show.
Suddenly, the Vitality Stage Sea Siren attacking the Martial Guard troops let out a roar.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren before him immediately had blood-red eyes, advancing proactively to attack Zhou Leng.
Zhou Leng didn't want to miss this excellent target, avoiding fatal moves, occasionally advancing and retreating, controlling the rhythm of the fight, continuing to use actual combat to hone his newly perfected Flying Cloud Leg Technique.
After two hundred moves, the Blue-skinned Sea Siren's movements visibly slowed, its steps unsteady.
Since it had lost its usefulness...
Zhou Leng suddenly stepped forward, punching and palming at close range, shoulder and elbow strikes, knee strikes repeatedly landing on the opponent's body with a cascading sound.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren was initially stunned by the blows, soon fighting back with bloodshot eyes.
Both combatants rained down a torrent of attacks on each other.
Suddenly, Zhou Leng withdrew, changing the tempo, repeatedly kicking.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren hurriedly blocked.
But unexpectedly, every kick from Zhou Leng contained full force, also infused with the rarely used Frost Power.
With a single kick, the Blue-skinned Sea Siren blocked with its left arm.
The second kick came, and the Blue-skinned Sea Siren blocked again.
The third kick struck, the Blue-skinned Sea Siren continued to block with its left arm.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren's left arm suddenly twisted, first twisting upwards like a flagpole.
Then moved by the leftover force, it spun like the hands of a clock.
With the connection of skin and flesh torn, the forearm flew away.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren gritted its teeth, silent, retreating not a single step, waving its intact right arm to strike at Zhou Leng.
Zhou Leng had anticipated this, without the threat of the opponent's left arm, he kicked out with his unprotected right foot.
During the kick, the right foot straightened, the leg like a long spear, converting the kick to a thrust.
The tip of the thrust foot accurately hit the inside bend of the Blue-skinned Sea Siren's elbow.
The thrust foot was like a spear point, True Qi like a sword blade.
With a sharp sound, the thrust broke the tendons, bones, and muscles at the Blue-skinned Sea Siren's elbow, rendering the arm powerless and hanging down.
With the threat of both arms gone, Zhou Leng leaned forward like a swimming fish, moving to the Sea Siren's back, locking its waist with both arms, lifting upwards.
The Blue-skinned Sea Siren's feet were off the ground, unable to leverage.
Then, Zhou Leng leaned back, his body bridging, landing the Sea Siren's head hard onto the ground.
The Sea Siren's head violently hammered onto the stone floor, its vision blackened as it spat out blood.
Zhou Leng's arms clamped like hoops, True Qi surging, the two arms thickened rapidly.
Nearby fighters were astonished to see Zhou Leng's arms swell twice their normal size.
Both sleeves exploded.
The forearms and upper arms bulged, like red-skinned gourds.
Zhou Leng stood, continuing to lift the Sea Siren off the ground, his arms clamping with force.
The Sea Siren's spine broke completely, its waist clamped down to wrist thickness.
Then, with one more push, the Sea Siren split like a twisted sausage from the waist, its body divided, blood spurting.
Zhou Leng released, shaking off the fresh blood.
The Sea Siren's life force was tenacious, the agony of its sundered waist jolting it back to consciousness.
It stared at Zhou Leng, baring sharp teeth, attempting to bite him.
Still ferocious as ever.
Zhou Leng lifted a foot and crushed the fish-like head, bursting it like a watermelon.
