Chapter 1272: Warriors
The Golden Silk Moth is actually not some kind of high-level beast. It is not even on the same level as Golden Ape.
It is mediocre in terms of bloodline at best. The only reason it even became mediocre is because of its bloodline art. When they are in a group or even when they are with some friendly creatures in their wild, they can activate this art with external assistance.
It is very rare for them to do it. But once it does, the results are actually pretty good.
Currently, in front of Sam, there are around a dozen warriors standing with fully body armors made of this woven golden silk, and even their weapons are enhanced with this silk.
Their auras are fierce and raging at the same time refined. This is the effect of the Golden Silk Moth. After the bloodline art was used, the allies of the golden moth would be assisted by it in the best way possible.
In this case, these warriors' powers would be enhanced by these golden armors and weapons created by its silk.
The golden silk moth works best when the allies are of neutral energy. Sometimes, it tends to conflict with the elemental energies which will later bring more harm than good for the allies if used like these armors.
So, they would be provided with some other assistance like, creating distractions to the opponents or using the golden silk to create shields to block the attacks of the opponent.
Sam really felt excited about this battle. He even made the first move.
He shot multiple energy bullets at a rapid pace.
The moth spat out a large amount of silk which was instantly woven into a large blanket which took the hit of all the energy bullets.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
The series of explosions tore the blanket into multiple pieces with a lot of holes, but the blanket is being quickly woven again and within a few seconds, it turned as good as new.
Sam raised an eyebrow as he looked at the large silk moth in ridicule. He kept on shooting the energy bullets at the blanket, since all the attackers are warriors trying to close the distance, he let them do it while he focused on that large blanket.
He made it riddled with holes and the moth is trying to recover the blanket with its best effort at an equally rapid pace.
Meanwhile, the Warriors closed the distance until Sam is in their attacking range. They surrounded him completely and got ready to attack.
Sam waited for them to make a move as the silk moth seemed to have realized this and started converting the blanket into smaller blankets that could help them in defense.
A swordsman made the first move at Sam, which he blocked directly with the staff and gave him a head butt, when another attacker was about to make a move from the rear, he tapped staff on the ground letting an energy wave sweep him away while Sam ducked from a saber strike from the left.
He swept the staff horizontally on the ground to make the saber user lose balance when he did, he gathered the energy at the top of the staff and hit the guy in the face as he fell down.
The small silk blanket came in between as the staff and the warrior's face were about to meet.
*BOOM*
An explosion occurred at the point of contact, but most of it was negated by the blanket which turned into a bunch of rags that fell everywhere around. But the guy was not unscathed.
The explosion was strong enough to make his face disfigured as well as to throw him away.
Sam smiled as he aimed the staff at the same guy once again and shot an energy bullet.
The blanket didn't make it time and
*BOOM*
The explosion destroyed the armor of the target and made him crash into the ground.
Meanwhile, Sam took a staff hit from some other guy and almost got stabbed by a sword which he barely managed to block in it.
He jumped upwards and shot eight energy bullets at eight different people which were blocked by the silk blankets in process of which the eight people were unable to attack Sam for that brief moment.
Sam took this chance and attacked the one nearest to him.
He used the void style with an energy bullet, the silk blanket exploded by the first one and the second explosion made the target lose a chunk of flesh on the chest along with the silk armor, Sam took this chance and lunged forward with landing one final blow, killing him.
As soon as he was done with that, Sam hurriedly used the energy barrier to block the attacks coming from the rear.
But he was a tad bit late and he felt a slash on his back. His black cloak was cut and he was scraped lightly.
Sam took in a cold breath and looked at the attacker. It is actually the only Middle Stage transcendent cultivator left in the sect. The sect leader.
Sam looked at him coldly and lunged forward as he repeatedly tapped the staff on the ground in the process.
Energy rippled as large craters were formed while blowing everyone in the surroundings of.
Sam skid on his peg leg as he dodged the sword strike and the blockage of the silk blanket as he swung his staff sideways aimed at the legs of the sect leader.
The armor plate made of the golden silk suddenly materialized outwards and blocked the staff strike, Sam just smiled and the first rectangular section of the staff opened up.
*BOOM*
The energy beam was launched and Sam used the recoil to roll away.
A bunch of silk blankets that were helping the other attackers moved rapidly, but they were unable to reach the spot in time, and even the ones that reached didn't manage to block the attack fully. The sect leader lost a leg in the process.
Sam stood up quickly and swung the staff at the head of the sect leader who fell forward from the rear.
The blankets that were coming to block the leg changed their direction to block the blow and two blankets coiled around the staff's rectangular section as they forcefully tried to dissipate the energy gathered around it.
Sam channeled that gathered energy to the tip as he used void style to land the blunt blow on that guy's head which was blocked by the silk sheets.
But the staff went through the blankets, even though most of the attack was dissipated…
*BOOM*
There is a small explosion at the rear of the head.
The skull was cracked open with blood and brain matter gushing out.
The leader was dead.
*SCREEECH*
Sam looked at the Golden Silk Moth that is doing the screeching sound. It seems like it was genuinely hurt by the death of the sect leader.
Instantly all the silk that was spread around became active, even the warriors who were covered in the full body armor suddenly lost control of their bodies.
The silk moth is not controlling their body directly, rather it is moving the silk armor in such a way that the body would move according to its will. No matter how much the warriors tried, they couldn't make a move at all.
Sam tapped the staff and a barrier appeared around him as the silk tried to drill through it from different directions.
He used the energy bullets which went past the barrier to shoot down the weapons and attacks that were coming at him.
Sam finally started feeling the pinch as he felt a bit exhausted.
He is expending too much energy. The energy levels of this body are certainly not as good as his original one.
Sam could only sigh and made his best move.
He stabbed the tail end of the staff into the ground and energy gathered into it as each and every lock of the staff opened.
With a lot of clicking sounds, a bunch of protrusions appeared all over the surface of the staff. The three energy bullet shooters at the handle, the first section which opened up, before, also had another protrusion on the opposite surface.
The tail end opened up like a flower.
The third second with a bunch of small needle-like protrusions in all four faces while the second section of the staff opened up to reveal something similar to that of an oscillating piston.
Energy gathered as the piston moved rapidly creating ripples in the surroundings. But the ripples are not chaotic or extremely powerful, they gentle and they are only creating more ripples. The energy gathered at the protrusions and in a count of three, all the bullets and beams were launched along with the void style at the oscillation of the piston.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM**BOOM* *BOOM**BOOM*
The rapid explosions covered the whole area with bright energy lights while Sam just stood there, along with the normal explosions, that came from the energy bullets and the energy beams, the real damage done by the piston in the second section which seemed to be the least harmful of them all.
The energy ripples that were rapidly but gently propagated by this and the trigger of the void style created a bunch of small but rapid explosions that made destroyed everything in the path.
When the dust settled not a single dead body was intact and there is not a single golden thread visible.
Even the golden Silk moth far away was covered in blood and it is no longer floating in the air.
