Upgrade Specialist in Another World-Chapter 1308: Even Ants Can Kill An Elephant

“Almost…the Abyssal Snake and the others are nearly here!! I just need to last until the Phantasm is gone! I can turn the tides if they get here! I can’t lose…I can’t die!!”

Gu Lianhun was looking especially maniacal right now. Blood seeped from his wounds and evaporated the moment it left his body. A giant gray figure stalked behind him like a demonic entity. When it was fully materialized, the figure howled and beat its arms to its chest before coming forward to block both Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint’s attacks.

The battle was at its climax. All three Saints were building up their energy to unleash their ultimate moves. Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint were both doing fine since their injuries were at a minimum, but Gu Lianhun was like a spent arrow. He was basically using the last of his reserves to pull off this final stand.

It was only the thought that the Interdimensional Phantasm would be gone soon and that his reinforcements would soon arrive that kept Gu Lianhun sane. If not for those two, he would’ve fallen into despair a long time ago.

“Eh?!”

As he was concentrating and waiting to ward off the enemy attacks, Gu Lianhun suddenly caught wind of something strange. Looking up, he saw…a large group of people!

A long distance away from him stood what seemed to be nearly a hundred individuals!

Their combined auras rolled outward in large waves. Though it was hard to tell who was what or how strong any individual was, Gu Lianhun could sense that there were roughly twenty Soul Emperors and even more Soul Kings in attendance!

They weren’t hiding at all. A mighty army of powerful soul cultivators were flying for him!

“Wh—what is this!?”

He didn’t understand what was going on—what were so many people doing here!? It already boggled the mind when Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint appeared ‘out of thin air’. But then to have so many people come out again?!

“They’re…don’t tell me…no!!”

Gu Lianhun was astounded to see so many people. It didn’t take him long to figure out the reason before letting out a horrified expression!

……

Whilst Gu Lianhun was busy with Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint, Bai Yunfei brought out a multitude of people from the Core World to the edge of the battlefield. Behind him stood Chu Yintian, Yang Yao, Xiao Binzi, Jing Mingfeng, Xiao Qi, Long Lan, Ge Yiyun, Li Chengfeng, Zi Jin, Kou Changkong, Huangfu Nan, Tang Xinyun, and even more…

The entirety of the Soul Emperors and Soul Kings from the Crafting and Fate Schools were here!!

“Take action, everyone!”

They were all connected to one another via the Charm Bracelet. Now that the enemy was aware of their presence, Bai Yunfei hadn’t any desire to wait any longer. It was the time for action!!

Every behind him took action at the same time he did. Working together, they all began to use their soulforce!

“Bzz…”

The air hummed fiercely as their combined soulforce began to leave behind a physical effect on the space around them!

However, it wasn’t the elemental energy that was being disturbed. What the group was doing was…a soul attack!

The combined forces of twenty Soul Emperors and dozens of Soul Kings were unleashing a soul attack!

……

“No—aghh!!!!”

At last the signs of despair began to show on Gu Lianhun’s face. Howling in terror, he began to explode with even more power!

He was pretty much a candle with not much left to burn, but somehow, it was as if someone had swapped out the burnt out candle wick with a fresh new one! His aura was absolutely brimming with power!

He was burning up his soul!

This was without a doubt the actions of a man with nothing to lose and everything to gain!

The combined soul attacks of Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint was a hard one to stomach, but Gu Lianhun could handle that. But the combined forces of the ‘army’ behind Bai Yunfei? The combined soul attacks of that many people was definitely not manageable! Even for a Saint!

Ants. Thats what these people should’ve been. Bothersome ants that couldn’t amount to anything by themselves. But when enough ants were gathered…even an elephant could be brought down!

The soul attacks of the army of people became a tremendous wave of near-transparent energy to steamroll toward Gu Lianhun!

“Boom boom boom boom boom…”

There was a collision of energies, but no explosion. The soul attack of the rekindled Gu Lianhun was vying for supremacy against the unified soul attack of everyone else.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh…”

Several people cried out in the crowd behind Bai Yunfei. The weaker of the Soul Kings were the first to give out against the face of Gu Lianhun’s soul attack.

“Haha!! Bothersome pests! To even dare act against me…you’ll all die for this!!”

Gu Lianhun’s composure was all but gone. The insanity of the situation combined with his decayed mental state caused him to lose himself even as his energy was returning to him.

“Whoosh! Whoosh!!”

Then two beams of white and red light came shooting across the skies!

Though Gu Lianhun managed to ward off the soul attacks of everyone else, he had failed to realize Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint’s own attacks!

“Boom!!”

“Pft!!”

A blanket of elemental ice covered the area around Gu Lianhun while a burst of fire exploded where he stood. Then the Flame Dragon Crescent Blade clove through the two to strike at Gu Lianhun!

Against the first two attacks, Gu Lianhun was able to offer up a meager defense to avoid the worse. But the same wasn’t true for the Flame Dragon Crescent Blade. It embedded itself deep into his chest before the force behind the soul armament sent the man flying away with a devastating wound on him!

“Hah…hufff…no…no! I…if I die…you all die with me!!”

As vehement as he was at the situation, Gu Lianhun was also extremely dumbfounded. How did things end up this way? He only had to wait a minute or two more! But then these ‘ants’ came out of nowhere and became instrumental in his defeat!

The final string of rationality snapped. In his final moments to live, Gu Lianhun began to radiate with a chaotic burst of energy!

He was going to self-destruct!

……

“Ahh? Trying to self-destruct? In your dreams!!”

Bai Yunfei roared the moment he felt the first signs of Gu Lianhun’s aura fluctuating. Immediately, he and the still-standing people behind him launched a second soul attack!

And this time, Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint joined them!

“Die! Die!!”

“Ahh!!!”

So caught up was Gu Lianhun in his attempt to take the others with him that he failed to take into account that they would use another soul attack on him. Like a wooden boat in a violent storm, Gu Lianhun’s soul was immediately assaulted and shattered into pieces like glass!

As his life was leaving him, Gu Lianhun distinctly felt a fuzzy white light surround his person before hearing someone cry out a single word…

“Seal!!!”
