"Where did he go?"
The man's heart sank as his target, Lin Qi, vanished from sight, his very presence completely disappearing.
"Did he notice me?"
"No way. How could a mere Third-Circle martial artist detect my tracking techniques?"
Instinctively rushing out from his hiding spot, his sharp eyes scanned the parking lot filled with hundreds of cars, searching for his target.
"Damn it!"
Suddenly realizing his mistake, he cursed himself for charging recklessly into the open. He'd unknowingly played right into his opponent's hands.
Whoosh!
A sudden surge of danger sent his instincts into overdrive, his body instinctively shifting sideways.
From the corner where he'd been hiding, a cold gleam flashed as Lin Qi's face appeared in his vision.
Lin Qi had already opened his metal cylinder, removed the silver spear tip of his fifth-stage weapon. Xiaochan activated the control system, and the liquid metal surged to life.
Within moments, the metal flowed and expanded, solidifying into a sturdy black gun body.
The 100-kilogram Black Long Spear materialized in his hands.
He'd removed his windbreaker, revealing his sleek combat suit underneath.
Hidden in the shadows, holding his breath and concealing his presence, Lin Qi had waited for the moment his opponent exposed himself.
At that instant, he unleashed the Sky-Shaking Spear Techniques with full force, his entire body erupting with power like a volcanic eruption.
His muscles tensed, his resilient skin channeling Vital Force into the spear, the energy flowing smoothly through his body.
With tremendous force, he thrust the spear forward, the tip cutting through the air like a Stone Sunder, creating a whistling wind as it pierced the air.
First Move of Sky-Shaking Spear Techniques - Stone Sunder!
In that split second, the man turned his head, barely managing to sidestep as Lin Qi's spear zipped past him.
So fast!
Lin Qi frowned. His opponent's reaction speed was incredible!
This must be a Fourth-Circle martial artist. There's no way a mere Third-Circle could dodge that.
Without hesitation, he continued his attack, sweeping the spear sideways, releasing another wave of Mountain-Shaking Force.
Second Move of Sky-Shaking Spear Techniques - Sweeping Thousand Armies!
The man was equally surprised, feeling an immense force heading his way that would crush his head to pieces if it connected.
Instinctively, he drew the sharp sword at his waist, using it to intercept Lin Qi's spear tip.
Clang~
The tremendous force sent the man flying backward.
Bang!!
His body crashed into a white car, the impact area caving in deeply, embedding his body within.
Lin Qi stopped his attack, feeling a strong counter-force reverberate through his arm.
His expression grew serious. This opponent was strong, fast, and managed to draw his sword and counter even when caught off-guard by a surprise attack.
If this man had been the one to initiate the ambush, Lin Qi would have been severely injured, if not killed.
Fortunately, he'd managed to turn the tables.
Bang!
The man climbed out of the wrecked car, slamming his palm against the door and leaving a deep imprint.
Wearing a mask, his hat had fallen off, revealing his true face.
This was an unremarkable man in his early thirties, someone who'd blend right into a crowd.
However, his body began exuding a terrifying aura, Vital Energy surging - unmistakably the power of a Fourth-Circle martial artist.
"A national-level genius indeed. I never expected you'd actually detect me."
"You truly are a top-tier talent, a Third-Circle with the Body Constitution of a Fourth."
Standing up, he tore his coat off, revealing a sleeveless shirt and a gleaming silver sword.
His lean, compact muscles showed extreme physical conditioning.
Lin Qi could sense the terrifying power contained within.
Swinging his sword into a fighting stance against Lin Qi, he began to change.
His dark skin started shifting from flesh tone to deep green, and his aura changed accordingly.
What was this?
Lin Qi had never seen anything like it. The man's aura was becoming non-human. The deep green skin and rapidly intensifying power reminded him of an insect - a praying mantis.
Otherworld's Disaster Beasts were all animal-based, no insects. But this man gave off exactly that vibe - a human insect hybrid.
Suddenly, Lin Qi understood - this was a member of the Vermin God Cult.
So this assassin had come to kill him?
Swoosh~
Bang!
Lin Qi suddenly stomped both feet into the ground, shattering the cement surface into a spiderweb pattern with deep footprints.
He launched the first attack, his power erupting like a tiger pouncing, swinging his Black Long Spear with Mountain-Shaking Force flowing through it.
Channeling his Vital Force and over 6000 kilograms of strength, the strike came down like a mountain collapsing.
Whoosh~
Facing Lin Qi's attack, the assassin sneered, his body instantly moving at blinding speed, effortlessly dodging through the flurry of spear strikes.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Lin Qi had already removed the Gravity Ring. This was his peak combat strength!
So fast!
Dang! Dang!!
The assassin swung his sword to intercept Lin Qi's Black Long Spear, sparks flying as their weapons clashed.
Their Vital Forces collided as well.
Lin Qi could feel the assassin's sword was no ordinary weapon, at least a third-stage blade.
Otherwise, a common sword would shatter instantly against his fifth-stage spear tip.
The assassin's muscles tensed as his sword flashed, creating a flurry of strikes from all directions, surrounding Lin Qi like a swarm.
Each strike was like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows.
The momentum of the battle suddenly shifted.
The assassin moved like a nimble praying mantis, his form incredibly agile, his sword slicing through the air like a scythe.
Lin Qi's Mind's Eye reached its peak, spinning his spear into a defensive stance.
Bang!
The assassin's sword sliced effortlessly through car bodies and doors around them like soft tofu.
Puu~
A strong sense of danger made Lin Qi barely dodge in time, but the sword tip grazed his face, spraying blood.
Dang!
Lin Qi felt completely overwhelmed. His opponent was a Fourth-Circle martial artist, with sword techniques roughly at his own level, though not as refined.
But the assassin's Body Constitution completely dominated his, overpowering him in every way.
Another collision sent tremendous force through Lin Qi's body from the assassin's sword.
His arms went numb and tingly, pain shooting through his palms, his throat convulsing.
His entire body flew backward like a ragdoll, crashing into a black minivan.
The vehicle caved in from the impact, windows shattered, glass shards flying everywhere.
Keh~
Feeling intense pain, Lin Qi gritted his teeth and stared at the assassin.
"This is the power of the Vermin God's genes. Absolutely incredible!" The assassin swung his sword, his mind racing with excitement.
Endless power surged through his body. To him, Lin Qi was just a toy at the Third Stage.
Lin Qi now realized the assassin's power clearly exceeded the Fourth Stage.
"This guy's strength and speed are beyond Fourth Stage. If this continues, I'll definitely die!"
"I love killing you so-called geniuses."
"No more delays!"
"Kid, die!" The assassin grinned cruelly, his killing intent exploding.
Sensing the danger, Lin Qi didn't hesitate. Instantly, he focused his mind, beginning to activate the Minor Divine Ability - Golden Vajra Transformation.
Boom!!
In an instant, his chest burned with heat, his body seemingly igniting in that single moment.
