My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences - Chapter 344

344 Blood Burst Technique! Another Qin Huai?
Qin Huai recalled the endless stream of fallen elder brothers and the bloody scene atop the tower in Pingnan City… He found the idea of keeping such things as pets unbearable.

“Let’s go,” he said, glancing at the map before dismissing Zhou Cunzhong with a wave of his hand.

But there was a silver lining. The appearance of these pets, born with demonic bloodlines, would enhance the efficacy of his blood burst technique.

…

By the afternoon, Qin Huai was strolling through the Blood Poison Gang’s territory, seeming as if nothing was amiss.

!!
Eyes covertly followed him. These were the underlings of Yin Rongen and Huang Qiguang, continually probing for Qin Huai’s weaknesses, yearning to eliminate him.

Late into the night, Qin Huai donned a fresh outfit. He silently scaled the wall and rapidly faded into the darkness. He moved with caution, winding his way around, ensuring no one tailed him before heading towards the Thunderbolt Gang’s dock.

The docks under the control of the four gangs were typically guarded by experts at the fourth-level bone pattern realm. At least a dozen elite warriors of various sizes were stationed on the dock – a formidable force that could lay waste to many smaller sects in the outer city.

Qin Huai came to a halt at the fourth pier of the river, which was under the Thunderbolt Gang’s control and the furthest from their main base. He stared at the well-lit pier, his eyes narrowing slightly. He gauged the wind’s direction and stealthily shifted to the most advantageous position. Then, with a flick of his sleeve, he sprayed a large cloud of poison fog.

After a considerable amount of time, Qin Huai rose and approached silently. A few Thunderbolt Gang martial artists lurking in the desolate alley ahead of him widened their eyes upon spotting Qin Huai. An attempt to shout was made, only for the realization to hit that no sound could be produced.

Blood vessels burst in his eyes as he clawed at his own throat, a vicious expression on his face before he collapsed to the ground. His fall wasn’t particularly loud, but in the stillness of the night, it could be heard within a radius of several meters.

Regrettably, those within hearing distance had already succumbed. Qin Huai easily dispatched these minor nuisances and, in a blink of an eye, had stealthily approached the dock.

The Thunderbolt Gang warriors, who were stationed there, had all retreated into the fortresses flanking the dock for the night. Based on Zhou Cunzhong’s information, these two fortresses also extended three stories underground.

Qin Huai directed his gaze at the door of the fortress. He pushed it open, and the hinges creaked.

“Who’s there?” Two inebriated Thunderbolt Gang warriors noticed Qin Huai, garbed in a bamboo hat and black attire, and sobered up instantly.

“Beware…” one started to shout but was interrupted as the flaming long sword in his hand swept towards Qin Huai.

The other brandished his sword and charged directly at Qin Huai. The two powerful blood refiners exhibited exceptional battle strength and awareness.
Unfortunately, the gap in their power levels was too wide. They moved fast, but Qin Huai was faster. The latter swung in the air, releasing ten dragons’ might with his slash.

“True qi, long dragon whip!”

Thrust!

Blood spurted as the decapitated bodies crumbled to the ground. The next moment, a rumbling echoed from beneath the fortress.

Qin Huai swung open the gate, unleashing his blood burst technique. A dozen blood-red tigers and wolves surged forth, charging into the fortress. He followed, descending slowly into the underground.

Within the fortress, several Thunderbolt Gang martial artists hastily moved to open the doors. Suddenly, they halted.

“Do you hear that? Those hurried footfalls,” one said. “It doesn’t sound human.”

“Could it be a demonic beast?” another speculated.

“I recall today’s list had a batch of wolves and horses with demon bloodlines. They’re all pets sold to high-ranking individuals,” a bone pattern realm expert murmured.

“Isn’t the sale of such creatures prohibited?” A youthful Thunderbolt Gang martial artist looked horrified.

“Those high-ranking folks are accustomed to luxurious lives. They fancy such entities,” the bone pattern realm expert replied, his lips curled in scorn. “Don’t worry. Someone higher up will handle it. We’ll still profit… What’s there to fuss about? We even get an extra share from this deal.”

Listening intently, they confirmed the sound was indeed of four-legged creatures running.

“Probably some mishap by those youngsters,” the bone pattern realm warrior surmised, rolling up his sleeves. “Open the gate!”

The gate creaked open, revealing a group of blood-colored tiger wolf cubs whimpering at them. “Just as I thought,” the bone pattern realm expert chuckled. “But why are they blood-colored?”

The next moment, white spots on the beasts’ foreheads exploded. A group of people, including several bone pattern realm experts, were instantaneously turned into a bloody mist.

From a distance, Qin Huai emerged and continued his journey underground, while bone pattern realm experts successively charged out.

“Who dares trespass?”

“How dare you offend the Thunderbolt Gang?”

Furious shouts reverberated through the walls. An expert at the third-level bone pattern realm, defying gravity by running upside down on the ceiling, charged toward Qin Huai.

“Showoff,” Qin Huai whispered. Wounds appeared on his body, transforming into blood wolves that pounced on the bone realm expert. In a flash, the blood wolves had sunk their teeth into him.

Boom!

The blood burst technique detonated, leaving the expert as a pile of dismembered limbs.

“Ding! You have collected a [Thunderbolt Blade Technique Essence (Red)], [Thunderbolt Blade Technique] experience points +100,000!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Four Walls Kick Technique Essence (Orange)], [Four Walls Kick Technique] experience points +23,333!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Four Walls Kick Force Comprehension], [Four Walls Force] +2%!”

Experience orbs floated towards him.

“As expected, killing is the fastest way to gain experience points,” Qin Huai mused, looking at the orbs. With the accumulated experience points, he could roughly estimate how much more he needed to upgrade his nine dragons true qi Technique.

He continued deeper, eliminating all remaining Thunderbolt Gang martial artists in the fortress.

“My luck isn’t the best. The fourth or fifth-level bone pattern realm expert must be in another fortress,” he muttered. He then turned and ascended to the first floor.

Suddenly, a bellow echoed from outside, “I’m Poison Dragon Qin Huai, and I’m here tonight to claim your lives!” The entire dock seemed to quiver.

Qin Huai frowned. “Who’s impersonating me?”
