Chapter 159: Strike to Kill
Chapter 159: Strike to Kill
"Target spotted!"
Fang Xing's mental cultivation had reached an immaculate state, his mud pill palace akin to an indestructible vajra relic, impervious to all evil influences.
Not only could he easily withstand the spiritual pollution of a high-level minion, but he could also largely ignore the mental assault of a high-level familiar.
The martial will is forever the foundation of a warrior!
With such mental fortitude, it meant that even when facing a high-level familiar, his ability to draw his blade and strike was unaffected!
Of course, the question of who would perish after he drew his blade was a significant concern.
But at the very least, he wouldn't be slaughtered indiscriminately and still had the freedom to act.
This was extremely important in an ambush!
"Die!"
Fang Xing's Ghost Head Blade let out a thunderous roar, and behind him appeared the figure of an ominous ghostly deity.
Under the Dragon-Tiger Domain, this ghostly figure became more lifelike and ferocious, with a green face, sharp fangs, a leopard's head, and tiger's eyes. It let out a deafening roar as it brandished its blade and chopped downward!
Ghost God Slash—Slayer of Ghost Gods!
Shriiing!
Fang Xing and his blade moved as one, and the astonishing blade aura was like a toppling heavenly pillar, crashing down onto the monster that was formed by countless human shapes.
Puff!
Just like a hot knife through butter, the defense of this high-level minion was shredded like paper, and the Ghost Head Blade directly cleaved through its flesh and blood.
Terrifying blade energy overflowed, tearing through every part of the monster's body.
With one strike, Fang Xing had already appeared behind the monster.
The monster's body was split into four pieces, exploding like a watermelon, and countless blood gushed out.
"Hmm?"
Fang Xing's instincts told him that something was amiss.
The amount of blood this monster had seemed a bit too much?
Even the sense of caution in his Yintang acupoint, between his eyebrows, did not relax for a moment!
Whoosh!
Suddenly, amidst the overflowing blood, strange blood beads emerged one after another, forming a dense net that covered the sky and descended upon Fang Xing.
Their speed was astonishing, breaking through Fang Xing's blade light defense and landing on his body.
Sizzle!
Several blood beads landed on his clothes, immediately emitting white smoke and corroding countless holes, before drilling into his skin as if they had a life of their own.
Clang! Clang!
But the next moment, dragon and elephant roars reverberated around Fang Xing, and his skin turned golden, resembling a golden Arhat.
—Dragon-Elephant Vajra Unbreakable Divine Ability!
This divine ability, which many Martial Golden Core and even Vajra Realm warriors struggled to learn, provided Fang Xing with an incredible defensive boost.
The blood beads could only make a metallic clanging sound when they landed on him.
Moreover, accompanied by an ancient dragon and elephant's roar, the vital energy around his body erupted.
With the amplification of the Great Vajra Prajna divine power, the protective vital energy around his body slightly trembled, and those blood beads completely turned into smoke and disappeared...
At the edge of Fang Xing's ears, he seemed to hear countless faint, miserable screams.
These screams seemed to come from a single entity, yet also from countless entities, overlapping with each other and carrying an even more severe spiritual pollution than before.
Across from him, the remaining blood beads suddenly fused together, forming a blood clot the size of a human head, which continued to elongate, resembling a dark red shadow...
"Formidable... With this hiding ability and surprise attack, most of the outdoor teams would probably be finished..."
After all, Fang Xing was a top student who had scored almost full marks in the Extraterrestrial Atlas exam, and he immediately recognized what he was facing: "A Blood Demon Child?"
The Blood Demon Child was a familiar of the extradimensional evil god codenamed 'Infinite Blood Sea'. They had unique ecology, customs, and even their own civilization!
They fanatically worshiped the extradimensional evil god known as 'Infinite Blood Sea' and believed themselves to be the descendants of gods born from the blood sea.
This familiar was adept at using blood to hide and restore itself, giving off a sense of blood worship.
Moreover, there was the possibility of advancement within their race.
Most of them were low-level minions, called 'Blood Droplets', which could hide within the blood of other life forms with blood and manipulate their actions.
Then there were the 'Blood Demon Children', high-level minions formed by the aggregation of numerous 'Blood Droplets'.
It was said that above the Blood Demon Child was the familiar-level 'Blood God Child'.
The Blood God Child was a terrifying demon comparable to the Martial Golden Core or even the Vajra Realm. Each time one appeared, it would bring about countless casualties.
'No, even this Blood Demon Child... It knows how to hide. If it were any other outdoor warrior, they might not have fared so well...'
"Izag...ustar..."
At this moment, a string of incantations escaped from the Blood Demon Child.
The incantations were awkward and hoarse, like the collective voices of countless people, each syllable pushing the limits of the human eardrum.
Along with the incantations, Fang Xing saw a vision of a blood sea before him.
"The Blood Demon Child's spell-like ability..."
He suddenly shouted, and the sounds of dragons and tigers reverberated loudly around him.
The powerful martial will was like a gale, sweeping across the Blood Demon Child, causing ripples along the edges of its blood-colored shadow.
"The life form of the Blood Demon Child is very peculiar... It might be a collective consciousness... When dealing with this familiar that aggregates and disperses unpredictably, the sharpness of one's weapon is useless..."
Fang Xing sheathed his Ghost Head Blade on his back and extended three fingers.
Golden light emanated from his body, resembling a golden Arhat, and vital energy condensed on his fingers, faintly glowing with starlight.
—Star Martial Three Extremes!
—Great Vajra Prajna Power!
Even more terrifying was the concentration of his aura, as the Black Dragon and White Tiger roared, transforming him into a Tai Chi Furnace!
"Kill!"
Fang Xing executed the Dancing Sky Step, appearing in front of the Blood Demon Child in the blink of an eye as if he had teleported. His three fingers struck the blood shadow.
A thunderous boom echoed through the void, and the blood shadow disintegrated, with tiny blood beads scattering in all directions...
Roar!
Fang Xing's expression turned solemn as he set up the Dragon-Tiger Stance.
His spine straightened like a mighty dragon, his bones resonating with tiger-like roars, and his qi and blood surged like mighty rivers, transforming him into a blazing furnace!
His domain power expanded, enclosing the furnace entirely and trapping countless blood droplets inside.
Then, with the convergence of the dragon and tiger, yin and yang united! Fang Xing's terrifying martial will raged like a furnace, incinerating every last blood droplet.
In his ears, terrible howls reverberated incessantly, like the dying curses and grievances of countless beings...
But they were futile!
His mental fortitude was akin to the indestructible vajra relic, impervious to all evil influences.
Finally, as the last blood droplet evaporated, the entire secret realm battlefield trembled violently! The endless black mist that shrouded the distant skies began to dissipate, revealing massive fissures...
Through the silvery cracks, Fang Xing glimpsed countless honeycomb-like structures and numerous secret realm battlefields, both large and small.
"So this is... the true form of the transcendental space battlefield?"
"Those secret realms are like the spaceships used by the clans to descend... Now that the clan is dead, the secret realm battlefield is also collapsing..."
"Once the Omniscient Brain detects this spatial fluctuation, it will start extracting people!"
Fang Xing glanced regretfully at the small town and rushed in, quickly sending valuable items back to the cultivation world.
The collapse of the secret realm was swift, and by the time it was halfway through, Fang Xing finally felt the pull from the spatial warehouse.
Whoosh!
A flash of silver light, and his figure vanished.
Then... a terrifying spatial storm ravaged the area, tearing the secret realm to shreds...
...
Spatial Warehouse.
Fang Xing's figure reappeared, and he picked up the phone and other technological items nearby.
[Ding! Body scan complete. No pollution or hidden injuries detected...]
[Reserve Second Lieutenant Fang Xing, you have gained 100 military merits!]
The feedback from the 'Omniscient Brain' was timely.
Immediately afterward, the metal door of the spatial warehouse opened with a boom.
Fang Xing strode out, and countless gazes converged on him.
"You're the only one left? This battle must have been intense!"
"Dumbass, he registered for a solo mission!"
"Impressive!"
"This is Fang Xing, the top student from Blue Star University and first on the Battle Rankings!"
...
Countless eyes fixed upon him, most of them filled with goodwill.
After all, they were comrades-in-arms, fighting together to protect the human race.
Fang Xing nodded slightly and made his way to the square, browsing through the military merit board.
"There are indeed quite a few good things... even a spaceship?"
Fang Xing's eyes widened as he scanned the list, his eyes gleaming with desire.
For the original owner, buying a house in Blue Star was a lifelong dream.
As for a private spaceship, owned only by the super-rich?
He wouldn't even dare to dream about it.
But for Fang Xing, it was time to start preparing for his new ride.
"During the holidays, I can take my private spaceship and travel to the most famous entertainment planets in the Federation to indulge in all sorts of pleasures... That would be amazing."
Fang Xing stroked his chin, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "I've heard that the industries there are highly developed... There are even specialized nations that allow customers to enter as specific adventurer identities and interact with various female characters... In other words, it's like a brand new 'transcendental' experience, with a level of realism that surpasses any virtual reality game..."
"Hmm... Why am I thinking about this?"
"As expected, the only important things in life are killing and that... After experiencing life and death battles, it's normal for primitive desires to surge."
Fang Xing quietly analyzed his inner thoughts before returning to his dormitory and sitting down cross-legged to meditate.
Theoretically, after completing today's mission, he would have a month of vacation.
However, many interns would force themselves to take on more missions to earn military merits and buy cultivation resources, often leading to tragic endings.
Even a team like Huyan Qiusui's could suffer casualties if they weren't careful.
That was the cruelty of the battlefield!
"After the senior year of university, you can choose to continue interning until graduation or break through to the Martial Golden Core and pursue a master's degree..."
"After experiencing life and death, the campus sparring matches do feel like child's play..."
"Not to mention the items that can be exchanged for military merits are even more high-end and abundant than those offered by Blue Star University..."
This was normal. After all, Blue Star University was just one university, while the battlefield rewards were contributed by the entire human race.
Fang Xing's gaze shifted, and he spotted a strange spiral test tube on the exchange list he had just downloaded.
"Universal Yin-Yang Qi... Exchange requirement: 1,000 military merits."
