“Shi Jinlun!”
“Shi Zhinie!”
“How is this possible?!” Zhou Wencen and Li Lilou exclaimed.
“Shi Zhinie? Shi Jinlun? What are they…”
Swoosh!
Before Su Jingxing could finish speaking, a cold, bloodthirsty, crazy, and fanatical gaze swept towards the opening where Zhou Wencen, Li Lilou, and Su Jingxing stood.
“He…”
Boom!
A loud bang interrupted Zhou Wencen’s words.
It was the owner of the bloodthirsty gaze, the tall figure covered in blood. His aura burst forth and turned into a blood-colored pillar of light as he dashed towards the opening.
As for the unibrow man whose chest was pierced through, he shattered into a dozen pieces with a loud bang.
Boom!
The air exploded and the ground blew up.
Su Jingxing took multiple steps back, and Zhou Wencen and Li Lilou did the same. They both used their lightness skills to dodge the blood-colored pillar.
Although the latter missed, it charged out of the cave and buried into the ceiling of the corridor, creating a huge pit immediately.
Countless gravel mixed with powder scattered in the corridor.
Roar!
A beast-like roar resounded throughout the base before the dust settled.
Su Jingxing released his true energy and swept away the dust. What he saw was a tall figure covered in blood coming down from the ceiling and standing in the corridor. His body was surrounded by a fierce and tyrannical aura.
A long blood-colored snake…
No, a lifelike blood-colored long wyrm coiled and twisted around the tall figure as it emitted boundless blood energy.
Under this blood energy, Su Jingxing felt as if a mountain was pressing down on his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe. His blood was surging.
His limbs trembled uncontrollably, but his body remained stiff on the spot, unable to move at all.
Fear that he had never felt before struck his heart.
Danger!
Extreme danger!
Facing this blood-colored wyrm, a shiver that came from the depths of his soul crawled into Su Jingxing’s heart with everything. It was so stimulating that his entire body trembled and his mind went blank. While he was sincerely terrified, his survival instincts made him visualize a secret ability in his mind.
The Demonic Heaven Trampling Elephant Diagram!
This was the last mental secret ability recorded in the secret manual of the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven by the Wei ancestors. Su Jingxing had only simulated it in his mind and never tested it out.
The reason was that his soul power was insufficient.
But at this moment, in the face of the terrifying might of the blood-colored flood dragon, fear came from the depths of his soul. The Demonic Heaven Trampling Elephant Diagram automatically circulated, mobilizing little soul power to visualize the Heaven Trampling Elephant in his mind.
In the end…
Su Jingxing only heard a short elephant trumpet. He didn’t even manage to visualize a vague image of the Heaven Trampling Elephant before he felt a sharp pain in his brain and regained consciousness.
Even though he had failed, this clarity allowed Su Jingxing to leave the fear of the blood-colored wyrm and regain control of his body.
As soon as he regained freedom, he threw a punch at the tall figure covered in blood.
The true energy cultivated circulated was 200 years!
The strength amplified by the Hundred Steps Reigning Fist was fully unleashed, stacking with each step.
In an instant, a force of more than 200,0000 catties broke through the air, triggering a loud bang. In a flash, it ruthlessly collided with the tall figure that was about to pounce towards Su Jingxing.
The terrifying power shattered the figure’s surrounding energy in an instant. Then, it struck the tall figure and forcefully tore apart the blood-colored wyrm dragon that coiled around his body.
Bam!
Accompanied by an angry roar, the crimson wyrm exploded, transforming into countless streams of blood-red energy that surged into the surroundings, shattering the air and blowing up the walls.
The tall figure was pushed forward as well. He flew backward at lightning speed and crashed through multiple walls.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Deafening explosions were continuously heard along with the dust that rose.
Until the sounds faded and stopped completely, the huge base then regained some of its vitality.
Moments later, screams, wails, growls, and moans could be heard from every corner.
Su Jingxing leaned against the wall in exhaustion, his heart beating fast.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
For the first time in his life, Su Jingxing felt that listening to his own heartbeat was such a wonderful feeling.
“Thank… Thank you…”
More than 10 meters away, Zhou Wenchan leaned against the wall and looked at Su Jingxing. As he thanked him, he panted heavily.
Li Lilou was more or less in the same state. He was panting like an ox and there was still fear lingering on his face.
“Martial… Martial Art True Intent! S-Shi Zhinie, actually… actually condensed Martial Art True Intent! H-He actually successfully, successfully advanced to third-grade!”
Third-grade?
Martial Art True Intent?
“No! He hasn’t!”
Yan Yuanfeng’s voice rang out. He, who was still in shock, slowly walked out from behind Su Jingxing, Li Lilou, and Zhou Wen Cen.
“Shi Zhinie hasn’t reached the third-grade yet. The Martial Art True Intent of that blood-colored wyrm was not completely solid either!”
“If it was, the Martial Art True Intent wouldn’t be shattered so easily!”
As he spoke, agitation appeared on Yan Yuanfeng’s face. He looked at Su Jingxing with a fanatical gaze and said excitedly, “Of course, this doesn’t affect Guest Elder Lin. Although Shi Zhinie isn’t a true third-grade, he’s still invincible among fourth-grade martial artists. Guest Elder Lin was able to shatter his Martial Art True Intent with a single punch and send Shi Zhinie flying a hundred meters out. Even if the power of this punch isn’t as strong as third-grade martial artist’s, it isn’t much inferior!”
“Th-that’s right. We owe it to Guest Elder Lin. Otherwise, we would have already died in the hands of Shi Zhinie,” Zhou Wencen said gratefully again.
“I was defending myself too.”
Su Jingxing spoke in a low voice. His eyes flickered as he looked in the direction of the hole where the tall figure covered in blood disappeared into. This tall figure was also the previous patriarch of the Shi Family, Shi Zhinie. Su Jingxing’s heart raced.
Su Jingxing had a very deep impression of this formidable man who had single-handedly built up the Shi Family to become the top family clan of the Western District.
He probably wouldn’t be able to forget him in the short term.
“He’s not dead.”
Su Jingxing lowered his voice. “This previous patriarch of the Shi Family is in a very strange state. The Shi Jinlun that you people just called out to earlier had died in his hands!”
“That’s right. Shi Zhinie killed Shi Jinlun. If I’m not mistaken, he has suffered a Qi Deviation.”
Li Lilou took a deep breath and said.
“What? Shi ZHinie killed Shi Jinlun?” Yan Yuanfeng cried out in alarm. “Isn’t Shi Jinlun his son? Did the old man take the wrong medicine? He even killed his own son? Even if he has suffered Qi Deviation, he shouldn’t have become like this!”
“Qi Deviation?” Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows.
“I already said that he has suffered from Qi Deviation. Shi ZHinie has lost his rationality. He doesn’t recognize Shi Jinlun. In his mind right now, there’s only madness, killing, and bloodthirst,” Zhou Wencen said angrily. “Under such circumstances, there’s nothing surprising that Shi Jinlun appeared beside him and was killed by him. It’s completely expected.”
Er…
Yan Yuanfeng smacked his lips.
“You all seem to know that something will happen to Shi Zhinie?” Su Jingxing asked.
“That’s right. Guest Elder Lin is unaware, but our families have always been wary of the Shi Family. The problem lies with Shi Zhinie.”
Li Lilou took a deep breath and said seriously, “That old bastard Shi Zhinie has always wanted to replace my Li Family and become the number one martial arts family in Qinghe City.
“In order to achieve this goal, he will do anything.
“A few years ago, we received news that we didn’t know whether was true or not. Shi Zhinie had obtained a heretic art!”
“Heretic art?” Yan Yuanfeng exclaimed. “How come I don’t know?”
Li Lilou ignored him and continued, “Shi Zhinie seemed to have obtained a heretic art. It was rumored that it could allow him to advance to the third-grade. In order to verify the authenticity of this news, we sent many people to infiltrate the Shi Family to gather information, but we never found anything.
“It wasn’t until this time, when all of our people were captured and brought to this secret base, that I was 90% certain that Shi Zhinie had indeed cultivated a heretic art.”
“When I heard that loud crash and caught the strong scent of blood, I further confirmed that Shi Zhinie had succeeded in doing so!
“However, it was a little unexpected that he would suffer from Qi Deviation. But on second thought, it made sense. How could it be possible for a heretic art that depends on using a large amount of blood to be successfully cultivated and bring one to the third-grade to be completely risk free?”
“Including Martial Art True Intent,” Zhou Wencen added. “The Martial Art True Intent condensed through cultivating heretic art might be stronger, but correspondingly, it’s also harder to control!”
“Martial Art True Intent? Shi Zhinie succeeded?”
A clear voice sounded.
Li Linzhou, Wang Tiedao, a muscular man, and a woman with a large leopard cat beside her walked down the corridor where Su Jingxing, Li Lilou, and the others were.
“Qi Xinjue, Fourth Sister Qi. Zhao Zhongyi, Chief Zhao. And Commander Li, Boss Wang, you’re finally here.”
Yan Yuanfeng turned his head and looked at them. He grinned and said, “You guys missed the good show just now. It’s such a pity. As for Shi Zhinie, that’s right. He condensed Martial Art True Intent, but in the end, it was shattered by a single punch from Guest Elder Lin!”
Li Linzhou, Wang Tiedao, and the others lifted their heads and looked at Su Jingxing in surprise.
“It’s true,”
Seeing this, Li Lilou chimed in, “Shi Zhinie has advanced to the third-grade, but his realm is not stable. The Martial Art True Intent condensed is also not complete and could dissipate at any time. Most importantly, he advanced to the pseudo third-grade through cultivating a heretic art. Even though he made a breakthrough, he has also suffered Qi Deviation.”
“Qi Deviation? Hmph, good!” The muscular man, Zhao Zhongyi, sneered.
“Unexpected, so unexpected!” Wang Tiedao sighed.
“Where is he now?” Li Linzhou frowned. “How is Shi Zhinie doing?”
“There, it’s in the deepest part over there.” Yan Yuanfeng turned around slightly and pointed at the large hole in the wall that Shi Zhinie had made.
“This was created by Guest Elder Lin.” He raised his eyebrows. “Guest Elder Lin destroyed his Martial Art True Intent with a single punch and sent Shi Zhinie flying. He’s most likely lying unconscious in the ruins.”
“No, he’s here.” Su Jingxing tensed up.
Li Lilou, Zhou Wencen, Wang Tiedao, Zhao Zhongyi and the rest also felt their hearts racing.
Li Linzhou immediately pulled out a long sword that was like water. He aimed at the hole and released streaks of sword energy.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Sword energy tore through the air, heading straight for the depths of the hole.
“Move, everyone else, quickly leave this place!”
With a solemn expression, Li Lilou ordered his men to leave quickly.
“Yes, yes. Everyone, retreat immediately!”
Yan Yuanfeng snapped back and called for his men to leave the base.
In the pseudo third-grade, even if his foundation was unstable from just making the breakthrough, the strength he possessed was not something that martial artists in the lower ranks could resist.
Even for sixth-grade or fifth-grade martial artists, few would be able to withstand it.
Su Jingxing was different.
He was an exception. The existence of a cheat ability was not something others could compare to.
Shi Zhinie had suffered Qi Deviation. He had lost all rationality and was bloodthirsty and violent.
To be honest, there was no need for Su Jingxing to fight him head-on.
However, if this previous patriarch of the Shi Family were to regain consciousness and sought revenge on him, he would be in deep trouble.
Other than a few Shi descendants who were still alive, the rest of the Shi Family was almost completely wiped out by him.
Once Shi Zhinie sobered up, he would definitely seek revenge.
Finding Su Jingxing was within expectation.
Although Su Jingxing had disguised his appearance and never showed his face, no one could guarantee that he would always be safe.
The best way was to nip the problem in the bud.
In other words, Shi Zhinie must die!
Now that there were so many people, if they attacked together, there was a high chance that they would be able to kill this martial artist in the pseudo third-grade.
After all, Li Lilou, Zhou Wencen, Wang Tiedao, Yan Yuanfeng, Zhao Zhongyi, Qi Xinjue, and Li Linzhou all had a reason to kill him.
Although Li Linzhou was the Commander of City Governance of Qinghe City’s Martial Suppression Office, he didn’t seem to have any grudges with the Shi Family.
Yet, on the contrary, once Shi Zhinie regained consciousness, Li Linzhou would be the first person he kills.
This was because Li Linzhou had approved the Lin Family’s duel application against the Shi Family.
If Li Linzhou wasn’t the referee, the Shi Family wouldn’t have bothered with Lin Tuotian.
The Shi Family suffered heavy casualties, and Li Linzhou had a part in it.
Under such circumstances, would Shi Zhinie let Li Linzhou off?
Impossible!
Whether it was for himself, or to safeguard the stability in Qinghe City, Li Linzhou had to kill Shi Zhinie.
Thus, there was no need to say anything, no need to signal with their eyes, the seven of them made their decision at the same time.
Get rid of Shi Zhinie!
“Let’s go outside!”
Li Lilou’s expression changed when he saw a tall figure stepping out from the ruins. He shouted in a low voice,
“We can only join forces against him if we go outside.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he retreated swiftly towards the exit of the base.
Zhou Wencen, Yan Yuanfeng, Wang Tiedao, Qi Xinjue and the rest followed closely behind.
Su Jingxing thought for a moment and also moved towards the exit.
There were too many passageways in the base, the area of activity was limited, it was disadvantageous for the encirclement.
It would be easier to kill Shi Zhinie if they went to the open area outside.
Everyone knew this.
Because of this, everyone quickly left the base.
“Roar!”
Almost at the same time, a beast-like roar resounded throughout the mountain.
Boom!
The sound of air exploding came from the base.
The group had just left the base and were waiting outside.
Hearing this roar, everyone’s expressions changed.
Qi Deviation!
Shi Zhinie was still in a state of Qi Deviation!
In this state, he feels no pain, no emotions, only knows killing.
Surrounding and killing him was undoubtedly the most difficult.
But in this situation, they had to take action.
“Roar!”
The roar echoed throughout the mountain peak.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the ground shook.
While everyone watched, Shi Zhinie who was covered in blood with a crimson red wyrm coiling around him appeared once more.
That’s right, Shi Zhinie had manifested the Martial Art True Intent shattered by Su Jingxing again!
