Under every strike, Qin Fen could feel the energy and blood churn in his chest from the impact. This was the first time he met such a tough opponent since he started on the martial dao. His opponent’s combat power was comparable to the six-star level. If his opponent’s power of energy was at the six-star level as well, then his inner organs would have been harmed by the impact of the attack and Qin Fen would have been forced to retreat.
A four-star warrior using a biochemical beast was practically a six-star meteor level machine of destruction! Qin Fen’s Dragon Elephant Prajna Art’s power was no longer unparalleled on the same level. When faced with Sajjad, Qin Fen had no choice but to admit that his opponent was far more bold and fierce. Every time Sajjad struck with his arm, Qin Fen felt a fiery pain.
He was waiting for the instant Sajjad’s momentum weakened.
Though one becomes powerful when using a biochemical beast, there was never anything perfect in this world. In the case of a level two fusion, the enormous combat power stimulated by the biochemical beast couldn’t be sustained for long. If the user couldn’t end the battle quickly and overused the biochemical beast, they would become burdened instead.
Sajjad was finding Qin Fen to be a big headache. He already used six punches! It was already a miracle for a four-star warrior to take on two punches without losing under normal circumstances. However, this opponent clearly and surprisingly cultivated in the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art. This was a martial art that strengthened one’s body and power to the maximum, but it wasn’t necessarily superior to other martial arts. It should be a piece of cake for a meteor level expert to handle a cultivator in the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art.
Why won’t his bones break? Has he really cultivated in the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art? Why does it feel like the energy that protects his body is like that of the Golden Bell Shield?
Roar!!!
Sajjad was really mad now. He had to eliminate his opponent in the fastest time possible and flee this place immediately! With how difficult it was to handle this one recruit, heaven knows just how monstrous the hidden net was outside.
Sajjad unleashed a seventh fist, increasing the power once more. Qin Fen blocked with his arm. His feet were unable to hold him firm, and he was pushed back a couple dozen meters in a single breath, leaving a lengthy series of footprints down his path. His right arm ached as if it was going to break.
Sajjad seized the advantage with this punch. He pounced upon Qin Fen, seeking to eliminate this opponent with the next punch.
Qin Fen continued to retreat back without stopping. His left arm reached toward his lower back at lightning speed. The pouncing Sajjad suddenly felt the cloud of death hover within his heart.
What’s this!?
Before Sajjad could stop his body, Sajjad saw Qin Fen’s left hand whip out from behind his back with a new gun! The length of this gun was absolutely ridiculous among handguns. Even someone who didn’t know anything about guns would be able to sense its explosive power and destructive capabilities based on its shape alone.
Qin Fen’s lips curved in a faint smile. His retreat of thirty meters had given him enough time to pull out the gun and shoot.
Since I can’t make you exhaust all of your strength, then I’ll just kill you with a gun!
The fierce battle within the hall rang with a gunshot of unprecedented power. The gun in Qin Fen’s hand shook at the same time the shot rang out. It was as if it could fall apart at any moment.
Such an item could only be used in bad situations! Qin Fen felt a bit of helplessness toward the gun in his hand the moment he fired. He reckoned that he could only use the gun two more times before it would fall apart.
Splat!
Sajjad, who had sprung up in the air, did a rapid roll in the air. An odd shout had come out of his mouth as he landed on the ground, and blood could be seen around his shoulder.
The biochemical beast, materialized to a physical state, had been pierced through by the bullet along with Sajjad himself.
The power of the gun was super shocking!
Qin Fen secretly yelled how lucky he was to himself. If Sajjad’s biochemical beast wasn’t at level two fusion, but at level three fusion or level four fusion, this cheap and ad-hoc assembled of a gun might not have been able to injure Sajjad.
Qin Fen had used a cheap ad-hoc gun to injure a warrior who possessed a biochemical beast worth large sums of money. This made Qin Fen feel quite happy inside. It looked like biochemical beasts didn’t make one unparalleled. At the very least, level two fusion biochemical beasts were still lacking!
“An excellent gun! And excellent marksmanship!”
Sajjad grimaced from the pain, but there was still excitement and praise within his eyes. Something rarely seen by the naked eye began to happen with the wound in his shoulder. It was slowly healing. The biochemical beast was using the ability that came with level one fusion.
“However, there are many flaws with your gun.” Sajjad slowly said, “At the very least, you’re unable to catch my brain that operates at the speed of the six-star meteor level.”
Qin Fen was silent. What Sajjad said was true. If Qin Fen really could grasp all of his opponent’s movements and actions, then the bullet just now wouldn’t have hit the shoulder but the heart or the forehead.
“I cannot kill you, and you cannot kill me.” Sajjad slowly retreated back toward the window that no longer had glass and said, “Then, next time, we will….”
“You want to leave?”
As Xue Tian’s voice rang in the air, a black object appeared in the space above Sajjad’s head. The speed of this object was far slower than that of a bullet. Sajjad, fearful of Qin Fen taking the advantage of firing his gun, didn’t dare to spring back in retreat. He could only move his feet quickly.
Clatter…
The fist-sized black object suddenly turned into a giant black net. It enveloped the space with a ten-meter radius around Sajjad’s body’s location.
A criminal-catching net!
This was something the special forces police used to capture criminals alive.
Sajjad’s lips curved with a hint of disdain. He raised his hands to grab, twist, and tear!
What? Sajjad was stunned. Normally the criminal-catching net would simply be destroyed with his hands like this. Why was it that this net was…?
You want to tear it apart? Xue Tian laughed. He knew that if his master were to find out that the net could be torn apart with that sort of strength, his master would simply tear himself apart.
In the instant where Sajjad was mentally shocked, the weapon of explosive power in Qin Fen’s hands rang out once more. Sajjad’s heart tensed up, and his biochemical beast’s powerful capabilities enveloped a side of his body.
He didn’t dare dispel the materialized turtle shield. He used the body to take on the gun’s explosive power head-on. If he didn’t have the materialized turtle shield to block, the bullet absolutely would not leave behind a mere tiny hole. Sajjad could tell from the high-speed rotating winds generated by the bullet that it was very likely that a hole the size of an infant’s arm would be pierced straight through him.
Splat!
Blood sprayed through the air. Sajjad endured the pain and instantly caused power to course to his hands. His shoulders unfurled and…
Rip…
Xue Tian’s web wasn’t designed to handle six-star meteor level experts at all. It could capture five-star meteor level experts fine, but it was just a little bit insufficient when it came to the current Sajjad.
Qin Fen felt an enormous amount of hatred boil in his heart when he saw the criminal-catching net being ripped apart! His cheaply assembled ad-hoc gun had a different problem besides not being effective just now. It was impossible to shoot with it quickly in rapid-fire. Otherwise, Qin Fen would have shot three bullets, which would have been enough to take Sajjad’s life.
However, the gun in Xue Tian’s hand sounded out the instant Sajjad tore apart the criminal-catching net. Though he couldn’t compare to Qin Fen in marksmanship, he was only lacking by a mere sliver. Then there was also the fact that Sajjad’s mind was completely focused on dealing with the criminal-catching net. In this moment of distraction…
Xue Tian’s gun was different from Qin Fen’s gun. It wasn’t as explosive, but its continuous rapid-fire was on a very high level.
Four consecutive shots were fired. The first shot was blocked by the materialized turtle shield, but the other three shots bore into Sajjad’s shoulder. As the spray of blood erupted into the air, Qin Fen’s Dragon Elephant Prajna Art coursed into his legs, creating an enormous driving power. He was already upon Sajjad’s side in the blink of an eye.
A single Qin Fen was hard enough to deal with. The sudden appearance of a fresh military recruit, along with the deadly gun, Sajjad knew that it was now impossible to kill the two gunners. He simply turned without looking back, endured his injuries, and jumped out the window.
You want to escape? Qin Fen’s third gunshot rang out! The weapon of explosive power had reached its end of life at this moment, simply shattering to pieces from the recoil.
The third bullet was the first to completely pierce through Sajjad’s body. Fresh blood sprayed high into the air from the wound, and the injured Sajjad made a flick of his wrist, causing a steel wire to shoot toward a building twenty meters away…
Qin Fen was half a step too late by the time he leaped to the window. Sajjad had already used the steel wire to create a distance of fifteen meters. If Qin Fen was stubborn, he could kill Sajjad in the air, but then he would be forced to face a fall from the fifth floor. The fifth floor was actually the seventh story. The first and second stories were the parking lot. Qin Fen didn’t believe that he could smoothly land on the ground without any injuries after killing Sajjad.
Qin Fen gave the fleeing and heavily injured Sajjad a deadly stare before letting out a long breath. When Sajjad’s turtle biochemical beast sprayed out with blood from being injured, Qin Fen didn’t notice at all where the blood landed. It just so happened to land on Qin Fen’s chest, on the location of Qin Fen’s biochemical beast egg.
The biochemical beast egg that Lin Liqiang gave him had yet to show any signs of hatching to this day. The few blood drops of the turtle biochemical beast landed on the egg, and the blood was absorbed into the egg so quickly that it couldn’t be seen with the naked eye.
The biochemical beast egg’s shell shimmered with a metallic luster before returning to its usual calm.
Qin Fen didn’t notice this change, and Xue Tian was focused on firing at Sajjad. He really didn’t notice the fact that Qin Fen was carrying a biochemical beast egg on his person.
“Fuck! I can’t believe that this bastard actually has a biochemical beast!” Xue Tian smacked the window frame in frustration. “He’s too strong!”
Sajjad went through two buildings, not daring at all to tarry. The last gunshot had simply pierced his lungs. If the turtle hadn’t altered the trajectory of the bullet slightly, his heart would have been the one pierced with a gaping hole.
“Butcher, why aren’t you going to kill him?”
Phoenix’s voice slowly echoed in the spot where Sajjad ran past a dozen seconds before.
“Kill him? I can naturally kill him an instant when he’s in that sort of state.” Butcher laughed very confidently. Sajjad had run past him just a moment early, and the terrorist hadn’t discovered him at all. If Butcher wanted to make a move, he could totally take Sajjad’s life in an instant.
“It’s just that I suddenly felt that this terrorist will be unwilling to allow his plan to fail.” Butcher’s eyes squinted. “He’s been injured by Qin Fen to this extent, so he has to be extremely angry. Based on his personality, he’ll likely continue with the attack on the concert, and the target won’t just be the fans. His target will include the two super-popular twin empresses.”
“I never thought that you, who only know how to kill, actually have the expertise of Hao the Trickster.” Phoenix faintly smiled as she said, “You want to extend Qin Fen’s mission?”
“I am very much lacking when compared to Trickster Hao.” Butcher thought about every time Squad Leader Hao tricked him and was forced to step down gracefully. “I need to cultivate good habits in Qin Fen. One must do things cleanly and thoroughly. He needs to sort out the horrible mess he created on his own.”
“It looks like y’all really care about that kid.” Iron Hand had hurriedly made his way over by now. He just so happened to hear the dialog between the two. “It’s good to be concerned, but be careful not to spoil him when you’re focused on his growth.”
“Spoil?” Butcher sneered. “What we’re going to do is toss the lion cub down the cliff and let it climb up by itself. If this is called spoiling someone, then I have no words to say.”
Iron Hand shrugged, having nothing further to say. Compared to Butcher, Phoenix, and the others, he, a special force soldier, really wasn’t much in the eyes of others.
