Chapter 13 Slaying a Rank 5
Chapter 13 Slaying a Rank 5
Qin Fengqing had just finished taking stock of her spoils and was about to leave to continue exploring.
He had to reach the village he had missed last time before time ran out, and he also had to allow some time for the journey.
Not long after he stepped outside, Qin Fengqing saw a cave warrior wearing armor rushing towards him from a distance.
After seeing Qin Fengqing, it was as if he had confirmed something.
It must be Qin Fengqing's relentless killing over the past few days that has caused such heavy losses to the underground forces.
After all, fourth-rank martial artists are a core fighting force for Tianmen City.
The loss of dozens of mid-level martial artists in just a few days is an extremely heavy loss for Tianmen City.
During Qin Fengqing's previous massacre, a few escaped. It is likely that those people reported this to their superiors, and then Tianmen City dispatched powerful individuals to try and eliminate this variable.
Qin Fengqing looked at the martial artist and noticed that he was wearing a badge the size of a coin on his chest.
"This is... a fifth-rank medal!" The medal on the chest of the cave warrior was printed with five longswords, which meant that the other party was at least a fifth-rank early stage expert.
The three people Qin Fengqing killed earlier were probably unaffiliated martial artists from Tianmen City.
This warrior should be a member of the Tianmen City army, wielding a standardized weapon, and generally only the strongest members of the army hunt alone.
The man arrived in front of Qin Fengqing at an extremely fast speed and confirmed her appearance.
He muttered something under his breath and rushed towards Qin Fengqing.
"Ya yo ko!"
Qin Fengqing knew what those words meant; they meant that she had finally found him.
He drew his longsword and thrust it at Qin Fengqing.
"Kaku!"
Qin Fengqing retreated several meters. A fifth-grade martial artist was still a challenge for him at his current level. However, for Qin Fengqing, who still wanted to go to that underground village to seize the mine, a fifth-grade underground martial artist was someone he had to face.
After creating some distance, Qin Fengqing immediately used her movement technique to run towards the mountains and forests.
Upon seeing this, the fifth-rank martial artist from the underground cave immediately sprang into action and relentlessly pursued Qin Fengqing.
The fifth-rank underground martial artist followed Qin Fengqing into the forest after seeing him enter.
Once inside, they dared not relax for a moment.
Even though Qin Fengqing's blood and qi strength was only that of a fourth-grade martial artist, he was able to kill so many mid-grade martial artists, which cannot be calculated by common sense.
From Qin Fengqing's attire, the fifth-rank martial artist from the underground cave recognized that she came from the Martial Arts University.
Such a martial artist must be killed when he is weak.
Otherwise, their cultivation level would skyrocket if they were not seen for a period of time.
Even with his fifth-rank strength, he couldn't kill as many fourth-rank martial artists as Qin Fengqing did so quickly.
......
After entering the forest, Qin Fengqing constantly used the terrain to her advantage, sometimes darting out of the bushes and sometimes flashing behind the trees.
Through constant harassment, the opponent's vital energy is continuously depleted.
The fifth-rank martial artist in that cave had only just broken through to the fifth rank, and his maximum blood energy would not exceed 2500 calories. Qin Fengqing directly consumed nearly 800 calories of his blood energy.
Qin Fengqing pretended to be completely exhausted, and then quickly fled.
Upon seeing this, the fifth-rank martial artist from the underground cave revealed a delighted smile.
He unleashed his inner energy to catch up with Qin Fengqing, leaping behind him and swiftly descending with his sword, intending to incapacitate Qin Fengqing.
Hearing the voice behind her, Qin Fengqing's lips curled into a smile: "We've fallen for their trap!"
While Qin Fengqing had his back to the cave warrior, he had already circulated his qi and blood, preparing to unleash his power.
The longsword glowed red in a place unseen by the fifth-rank martial artist in the underground cave, and Qin Fengqing turned around and slashed fiercely!
"Five cuts combined into one!" Qin Fengqing shouted.
The opponent did not immediately lower their guard. Upon seeing this, they let out a low roar, and their longsword flashed with intense light.
"Bang!"
A loud bang was heard, and the two were thrown backward by the reaction force.
The fifth-rank martial artist in the underground cave had a solemn expression. He hadn't expected that Qin Fengqin, a fourth-rank martial artist, would still have the strength to fight him after being chased for so long.
In the eyes of a fifth-rank martial artist in the underground cave, Qin Fengqing was at most a mid-fourth-rank martial artist, yet he was able to hold his own in their fight.
The opponent immediately unleashed a powerful move, wielding his sword and unleashing a surge of energy as he slashed at Qin Fengqing.
Qin Fengqing remained calm despite the situation.
"You think you're the only one with a special move? I have one too!"
"Five consecutive strikes! Sever the body! Sever the soul! Destroy the spirit! Annihilate consciousness! Death!"
"Five cuts combined into one!"
Qin Fengqing unleashed a five-hit combo, combining the five strikes into one.
It unleashed 750 units of Qi and Blood, reaching the level of a special move.
This was Qin Fengqing's final breakthrough before entering the underground cave, and it is also his strongest killing move now.
With a burst of 750 calories of energy combined with his C-grade alloy longsword, he actually cleaved the opponent's standard longsword in half.
The other person immediately showed an expression of disbelief.
"How is this possible!" the fifth-rank martial artist from the underground cave exclaimed in shock. After this outburst, he had almost no vital energy left in his body.
When he looked at Qin Fengqing, he found that her blood and energy had not declined at all.
The next moment, they stepped on trees and quickly fled into the depths of the forest.
Upon seeing this, Qin Fengqing sped away.
Although the opponent was a fifth-rank martial artist, his vital energy was completely depleted, and he didn't even have time to recover during his frantic escape.
In his current state, Qin Fengqing could easily deal with a fifth-grade martial artist whose energy and blood had been completely depleted.
With a single slash, the opponent died instantly.
Approaching the body, Qin Fengqing picked up his medal.
Upon turning it over, one discovers that the image printed on the back is not the Tianmen Tree representing Tianmen City, but rather a plant resembling a sunflower.
"These are... warriors from Dongkui City! Not warriors from Tianmen City!"
Although Dongkui City and Tianmen City did unite in their previous lives, it was almost a year later. I didn't expect there to be signs of a union now.
After thinking it over, Qin Fengqing put the medal away, planning to hand it in later at the reunion after this event. He wanted to let Hope City prepare for a possible alliance between Tianmen City and Dongkui City.
After collecting the medals, Qin Fengqing found a cloth bag on his body.
Inside was a cultivation energy stone the size of a quail egg. Qin Fengqing weighed it in her hand; it was at least 30 grams.
It seems that Dongkui City has only made initial contact with Tianmen City and no battles have broken out yet, which is why the warriors of Yaokui City are relatively wealthy.
After Qin Fengqing put away the cultivation energy stone, she checked his body again. Finding nothing else, she prepared to leave.
Qin Fengqing determined the direction and continued running deeper into the meat grinder.
Now that we're heading to that village, the round trip is very tight. We've wasted too much time on this fifth-rank martial artist in Demon Sunflower City, so we must get there as soon as possible.
