High Martial Arts: Liver Becomes the Master of the Universe

Chapter 182 Vitality Index 5560! Hell-level mission! Shocking the progress of the three powerful figures!

"Have three more people died?"

"what's the situation?"

Qin Feng looked at the task panel with a puzzled expression.

The intelligence section has been updated once again.

[Target's latest vitality index estimate: 6000.0 points]

Six thousand points!
Qin Feng clearly remembered that the last time he checked this task, Shi Dang's vitality index was 5400 points.

That was just over two years ago!

"In other words, in just over two years, Shi Dang has increased his vitality index by a full six hundred points!"

This served as a stark warning to Qin Feng.

That's incredibly fast!
It's gotten to a point that's completely unreasonable and suffocating!

This means that in just over two years, Shi Dang must have sacrificed a large number of powerful heads and souls to the "Lord of the Skull" he believed in through endless and bloody killings!
Such rapid improvement!

Even with his perfect skills and abundant resources, he couldn't match Shi Dang's rate of improvement.

Qin Feng's gaze continued downwards.

[Updated Known Abilities: The target has been confirmed to have mastered multiple "Level 4 Killing Techniques" and has cultivated them to the "Minor Completion" level. According to the latest intelligence, the target, with the assistance of a large number of "Khorne" followers, successfully escaped from the pursuit of a Level 7 "Mountain and Sea Realm" warrior of the Empire, using the "Blood Blade" killing move.]

"Level four killing technique, minor mastery... and has even grasped the killing move..."

Qin Feng looked at the intelligence report and fell silent.

He subconsciously glanced at his attribute panel, which only he could see.

In the "Killing Techniques" section, the third-level spear technique he was so proud of, which he had only just begun to learn—"Qiankun Spear"—appeared so inconspicuous.

He had only just mastered a "Level 3 Killing Technique" that did not involve the use of mental power, reaching the minor completion stage.

Shi Dang, on the other hand, had already cultivated the "Level 4 Killing Technique," which required the use of mental power and was more powerful and unpredictable, to the "minor success" level. He had even comprehended his own killing move!
And he was even able to escape from a level seven "Mountain and Sea Realm" expert!

Although the intelligence mentioned that there was "the assistance of a large number of Khorne believers".

But the fact that he was able to do this is enough to prove how terrifying and troublesome Shi Dang's strength has become!
"I'm not... fast enough."

"I should work even harder."

Qin Feng slowly closed the task page.

The heavy pressure that had just been suppressed once again, like dark clouds, enveloped his heart.

The relentless race between himself and his one and only nemesis is far from over, and it's far too early to relax.

……

Time is the fairest, yet most ruthless, measure in the universe.

It never stays for anyone.

Whether it's a martial artist immersed in secluded cultivation or a fallen being roaming and killing across the starry sea.

Another decade has passed in the blink of an eye.

……

Canaan Star Martial Arts University, the exclusive maintenance base for the "Fearless" battle group.

Qin Feng's figure appeared here once again.

He sent his "Minglong Type I" power armor, which had been battered and bruised in multiple places during a mission, into the repair channel.

Then, just like countless times before, I quietly found a corner and leaned against the cold alloy wall to wait.

These past ten years have been both incredibly fulfilling and incredibly arduous for him.

Qin Feng is like a fully wound-up, never-ending spinning top.

He's either on a mission or in seclusion, practicing spiritual cultivation.

He is racing against time.

During these ten years, he successfully performed 130 "merging of the orifices".

To date, the "Great Sun Aperture" within his body has successfully fused 196 times!
His vitality index also soared steadily, reaching 5560 points!
This is a terrifying number that would leave any genius of the same level who has cultivated the "Supreme Harmony Technique" speechless.

However, Qin Feng did not become arrogant.

Years of fighting in blood and fire have made his heart as calm as a rock.

"Ten years ago, Shi Dang already had a vitality index of 6000, and it will only get stronger now."

"My current vitality index is only catching up with his ten years ago."

While waiting for the power armor to be repaired, Qin Feng quietly looked at the familiar, bustling maintenance base in front of him.

He saw many unfamiliar, energetic, and vibrant "new" faces.

I also saw many "older students" like him, whose faces had long lost their childishness and whose eyes were full of composure and determination.

He just watched all of this quietly.

A sense of déjà vu, as if from another world, welled up in my heart.

Now, a full sixty-two years have passed since he stepped into the gates of Canaan Star Martial Arts University.

And only eight years remain until that once-in-a-century, grand battle ranking tournament is completely over.

Over the past twenty-two years, he has completed more than one hundred "warrior-level" team missions.

His accumulated battle team competition points have long since exceeded the 3,000 mark.

That requires 100 points to redeem the [C-level Customized Resource Pack].

He had already obtained the [Grade B Customized Resource Pack], which required 1000 points to redeem.

The so-called "customized resource package" is actually a collection of cultivation resources and special equipment that are automatically selected and packaged by the system based on his strength and needs.

Qin Feng felt that there was nothing particularly special about it.

Perhaps it's because his resource pack level isn't high enough?

What would the [Grade A Customized Resource Pack], which requires 10,000 points to redeem, look like?

Qin Feng shook his head, deciding to stop thinking about it.

He began to silently reflect on his progress in "killing techniques" over the past ten years.

The ten "Level Two Killing Techniques" he initially obtained from the battle group had been honed through hundreds of life-and-death battles, and he had already mastered them all to the point of "control".

And the third-level spear technique he had spent a great deal of effort to master—the "Qiankun Spear"—was successfully cultivated to the "perfect" state through repeated battles and insights.

Furthermore, he also comprehended the ultimate move of this spear technique—[Heaven and Earth]!
However, it was precisely because he devoted a great deal of energy to this profound and extensive "Qiankun Spear" that he was able to achieve this.

As a result, he hasn't had much time in the past ten years to refine his own unique killing techniques.

"With my current strength, it's time for me to take on a 'hell-level' mission."

Qin Feng made a decision in his heart.

The contribution points and reputation rewards for "Hell-level" missions are several times higher than those for "Warrior-level" missions.

With his current vitality index of 5560 points and his combat skills that are no longer what they used to be, it is difficult for him to feel the deadly danger that forces him to improve when he goes to carry out "Warrior-level" missions.

……

When Qin Feng finished repairing his power armor and returned to his private dormitory, which had long been like a second home,

He didn't immediately go to the mission panel to filter out the "hell-level" missions filled with death and temptation.

He simply sat quietly cross-legged.

A moment later, he dialed the number he had been calling every single day for decades.

The screen lit up, and a kind face, weathered and worn, yet incredibly familiar, appeared on the screen.

It was his father, Qin Dahai.

For more than 20 years, Qin Feng has never stopped talking to his family.

After receiving the top-tier medicine that could regenerate severed limbs sent back by Qin Feng, Qin Dahai, the father, had already recovered his full health.

But the erosion of time is something that no medicine can reverse.

Only a leap in life level can break the shackles of lifespan!

Because of the deep-seated wounds she sustained on the battlefield when she was young, and because she missed the best time for treatment later on in order to treat Qin Feng's stubborn illness.

This resulted in Qin Dahai's hidden injuries being extremely serious.

The method he practiced was the most basic, intermediate-level method for opening the mind. The number of acupoints was small, and their quality was also poor.

In addition, he has been unable to make any breakthrough progress in the cultivation of "spiritual power" for a long time.

All of this resulted in his martial arts path being stuck at the fifth-level martial artist stage, unable to advance any further.

His vitality index was only around 100 points, which would be the lowest among all level 5 martial artists if placed in Canaan Star Martial Arts University.

Seventy-nine years have passed since Qin Feng was born.

Qin Feng's father, who is forty years older than him, is almost 120 years old.

For a level 5 martial artist with a vitality index of only 100 points, this age is already visibly a sign of entering old age.

In the video, the father's hair was already completely white.

The wrinkles on his face were as deep and dense as if they had been carved by a knife.

Qin Feng could even see a trace of lingering weariness, a sign of "aging," in his slightly cloudy eyes.

"Ah, Father, I'm getting old."

On the other end of the video, Qin Dahai looked at his son, who was already exceptionally brave and had a calm and steady demeanor, and a smile of relief mixed with a touch of sadness appeared on his face.

"I reckon I'll never be able to get that damn mental strength to the required standard in this lifetime."

"Feng'er, I don't know how much longer I have to live."

"But Dad's life was worth it! It was really worth it!"

"I can die in peace knowing that I have raised such a renowned and unparalleled genius as you!"

His voice was somewhat hoarse, carrying the characteristic weakness of an elderly person.

"Wait for Dad, the day he leaves. After that, remember to maintain good relations with your uncle's family, and also with your two cousins."

"They are among the top 100 martial arts universities in the Starry Sky. Although they are not as good as you, they are still rare geniuses. They may be able to help you in the future."

"..."

His father was very talkative, and Qin Feng just listened quietly.

Half an hour later, the light screen slowly dimmed.

"Be careful, Feng."

This was the last sentence Qin Dahai, the father, left for him before hanging up the phone.

Qin Feng sat quietly in the center of the dormitory, remaining motionless for a long time.

The image of his father's wrinkled and aged face, and the complex emotions in his cloudy eyes—a mixture of relief and a sense of melancholy and reluctance at the approaching end of his life—lingered in his mind.

He knew that his father was truly getting old.

"Hamer."

Qin Feng said, "Open the event mission panel and filter the missions. Select the mission level as—[Hell Level]!"

"Yes, Master."

Hammer's efficiency was as fast as ever.

The next second, the once vast list of "Warrior-level" missions vanished from Qin Feng's sight.

Instead, there are new missions, hundreds of times fewer in number, but each one radiating a chilling, blood-red glow.

[List of Hell-Level Quests]

Every task here represents extreme danger and extreme reward.

Qin Feng's gaze quickly swept over the titles of these tasks.

[Mission: Hunt down "The Throat of the Void"—a fully grown, Level 6 cosmic behemoth capable of devouring starships]

[Mission: Infiltrate the forbidden forging world of the "Cult of the Machines" and steal the construction blueprints of the "Immortals" legion]

[Mission: Survive in the Wailing Abyss for 100 days and bring back a sample of the Heart of the Abyss]

……

His gaze finally settled on one of the tasks that made him pause slightly, even taking his breath away.

[Quest Name: Purification of the Blood God's Nest]

[Mission Objective: Completely eliminate the "Blood Blade" Khorne cultists who are based on the "Abandoned World" planet K-13.]

[Task Type: Team Task (Requires 4 Players)]

[Mission Difficulty: Hell Level]

[Mission Rewards: 80000 Contribution Points, 240000 Warband Reputation Points, 5000 Competition Points]

Atrocities against believers!

Another Khorne believer!

A chilling glint flashed in Qin Feng's eyes.

When he saw the terrifyingly generous mission rewards, Qin Feng began to calculate.

"One mission can earn you 240,000 Warband Reputation points!"

"Right now, I'm still more than a million reputation points and the corresponding resources needed to complete the refining of all the acupoints."

"That is to say..."

"If I can successfully complete four or five of these 'hellish' missions, I can gather all the resources I need!"

He directly chose to submit his application to join the team.

However, just when he thought that, as countless times before, his application would be approved quickly...

A cold, red system notification popped up.

Your application to join the team has been rejected by the team leader.

Furthermore, below the rejection message, there was a brief message from the team leader.

[Message from "Long Yu": My strength is too weak, and the mission is too dangerous. I cannot accept this offer.]

Too weak?

Qin Feng was taken aback.

He subconsciously clicked on his personal profile panel.

Only then did he realize that what was displayed was old information from before his last seclusion.

Name: Qin Feng

[Level: Level 5 Martial Artist]

Vitality Index: 4800 points

[Year of Enrollment: 58]

【…】

No wonder the other party rejected her without hesitation.

After all, the "hell-level" missions are comparable to the difficulty of floors 61-90 of the Canaan Tower, and are designed for warriors with a vitality index of 5000+.

A martial artist with a vitality index of less than 5,000 points trying to participate in this level of mission is seen by others as either courting death or a delusional "slacker" trying to freeload off the rewards.

Moreover, the enrollment period was only 58 years.

Qin Feng immediately started working on the backend of his personal profile.

He corrected his information to the latest status.

Name: Qin Feng

[Level: Level 5 Martial Artist]

Vitality Index: 5560 points

[Killing Technique Levels: Level 1 Killing Technique (Mastery of Ten Techniques), Level 2 Killing Technique (Mastery of Eleven Techniques), Level 3 Killing Technique (One Technique Perfected, Killing Move Already Comprehended)]

[Year of Enrollment: 62]

After demonstrating their strength in the most direct way.

Qin Feng submitted his application to join the team once again.

This time, the application was not rejected instantly.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, the system finally sent a new prompt.

Your application to join the team has been approved.

Immediately following was the second message from the team leader, "Long Yu".

[Message from "Dragon Jade": Please immediately proceed to the "Fearless" Legion's A-1 teleportation area for a strength verification. This is a matter of life and death, and cannot be taken lightly. Please understand.]

Qin Feng immediately understood what the other party meant.

No sooner had he been rejected than he drastically "updated" his own strength stats.

This behavior is highly suspicious to anyone.

It's perfectly normal for the other party to suspect that you're exaggerating your strength just to get a free mission.

Qin Feng not only didn't find this caution offensive, but instead came to appreciate the captain, whom he had never met before, even more.

This means that he is someone who is extremely responsible for his own life and the lives of his teammates.

Without delay, Qin Feng immediately activated the teleportation array and headed to the designated meeting point.

……

"Fearless" Chapter, A-1 Teleportation Zone.

This is a top-tier assembly point specifically prepared for elite teams undertaking "hell-level" and "nightmare-level" missions.

The space here was more spacious and solemn than any teleportation zone Qin Feng had ever been to before.

The entire hall has a cold, dark gold metallic feel, giving people an extremely solemn and oppressive feeling.

Qin Feng's figure appeared on the teleportation platform.

As soon as he stepped out, he saw three figures standing quietly not far away.

Two of them appeared to have just finished a sparring match in a "private battle space".

The leader, however, watched them silently.

He was a young man with a tall and straight figure, a handsome face, and a gentle and modest temperament, like an ancient scholar who had read extensively in poetry and literature.

But Qin Feng could sense a terrifying power, as vast and unfathomable as an abyss, deep within his seemingly peaceful eyes.

This person must be Long Yu, the captain of this mission.

The two martial artists who had just finished their battle, one of them showed a hint of regret and resentment on his face after leaving the combat space, but in the end, he still clasped his hands in a very nonchalant manner towards Long Yu. "Senior Long Yu, I was outmatched. My strength is not enough to participate in this mission. I won't hold everyone back."

After saying that, he decisively chose to leave the team.

The gentle young man he addressed as "Senior Long Yu" nodded slightly to him and said, "Qin He, your strength is already quite formidable. However, this mission was indeed far too dangerous. Once you have mastered the 'Overturning Sea Blade' technique, we welcome you to join us again at any time."

The martial artist named "Qin He" nodded, said nothing more, and disappeared into the teleportation light.

The other was a tall, voluptuous female martial artist dressed in a close-fitting, fiery red combat suit.

A confident smile played on her lips.

Long Yu nodded to her and said, "Wen Muyun, welcome to the team."

"Thank you, Senior Longyu."

The female martial artist named "Wen Muyun" responded with a smile.

After dealing with all of this, Long Yu's gaze finally fell on Qin Feng, who had just arrived.

Qin Feng said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Senior Long Yu, I am Qin Feng."

"it is good."

Long Yu nodded gently in return.

His gaze lingered on Qin Feng for a moment, as if he were assessing something.

After a moment, he spoke, "Junior Brother Qin Feng, please add me as a friend on the subspace network. Then, please come to my private battle space and spar with me."

"clear."

Qin Feng nodded slightly.

This is the most crucial "interview".

Only in actual combat can they demonstrate the strength to match "hellish" missions.

Only then could he gain the captain's approval.

"clear."

Faced with Long Yu's gentle yet undeniable invitation, Qin Feng's reply was concise and powerful.

He quickly accepted the friend request sent by Long Yu on his personal terminal.

Immediately afterwards, a private battle invitation from Long Yu popped up.

Qin Feng accepted without hesitation.

hum-

The scene before my eyes changed in an instant.

The solemn and oppressive, dark gold teleportation hall receded like the tide.

Instead, there is a vast, pure white virtual space composed of the most basic data streams.

This is the "private combat space" of Canaan Starry Sky Martial Arts University, the most direct and effective place to test a martial artist's true strength.

A hundred meters in front of Qin Feng, Long Yu's tall and straight figure appeared.

Neither of them opted to equip themselves with heavy power armor.

A set of close-fitting, streamlined black lightweight armor appeared on Qin Feng's body.

He held in his hand a virtual alloy spear provided by the subspace private domain combat system.

Opposite him, Long Yu's attire was equally simple.

A set of light armor in one color, and a long alloy sword.

"The rules are simple."

Long Yu's voice rang out in the pure white space, "Do not lock the vitality index, do not restrict any killing methods."

"I will only defend and not attack."

"You used all your strength to attack me."

"Until I believe you are capable enough to participate in this mission."

"clear."

Qin Feng nodded slightly in confirmation.

"So……"

Long Yu's eyes, which were as deep as an abyss, suddenly became sharp as knives. "Let's begin."

The moment the words fell.

A terrifying aura, so powerful that it caused the entire virtual space to tremble slightly, suddenly erupted from Long Yu's seemingly gentle and jade-like body!

7200.0 points!
That terrifying life force, representing the theoretical limit of the fifth level of the Supreme Harmony Technique, the "Harmony Realm," belonging to the "Minor Limit" level of experts, swept through the entire space like an invisible storm!

Faced with this imposing aura, Qin Feng felt as if he were confronting a vast, unfathomable sea of ​​stars.

Powerful and unfathomable.

This is the strength possessed by the three top level 5 warriors of the Fearless Battle Group!
However, Qin Feng's gaze remained unwavering.

Qin Feng showed no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, a long-lost and incredibly fervent fighting spirit surged within him!

He hasn't encountered an opponent for far too long who can make him go all out without reservation!
"Please give me your guidance, senior!"

With a low shout, Qin Feng moved!

boom--!
The ground beneath his feet suddenly exploded!

His vitality index of 5560 points was completely unleashed at this moment!

Even more terrifying was that his monstrous body, which had long surpassed common sense and was comparable to a "starry sky behemoth," also unleashed a terrifying power far exceeding the limits of his vitality index at this moment!
He was like an electromagnetic cannonball fired from the barrel, capable of tearing through the armor of a starship, carrying a terrifying power that could tear everything apart. In an instant, he covered a distance of a hundred meters and appeared in front of Long Yu!
The spear in his hand transformed into a black lightning bolt, thrusting straight toward Long Yu's chest in the simplest and most direct way!

This shot contained no killing intent.

All that exists is the purest, most extreme power and speed!

Faced with this lightning-fast shot, a hint of surprise appeared on Long Yu's usually gentle and refined face for the first time.

He neither retreated nor dodged.

He simply held the alloy longsword horizontally in front of him.

"clang--!!!"

A deafening, piercing metallic clang, as if it could rip one's eardrums apart, exploded with a deafening roar!
The spear tip and the blade collided precisely.

A visible, transparent ripple of energy spread outwards from the two of them!
Qin Feng felt as if his spear had struck an unshakeable, ancient divine mountain.

A vast yet incredibly concentrated power emanated from the blade, bringing his advance to an abrupt halt.

On the other side, Long Yu remained completely still.

But the pure white data floor beneath his feet cracked and spread for dozens of meters, centered on his feet!
He felt a barely perceptible, tingling tremor in the web of his hand that was gripping the knife hilt.

"What a powerful force!"

A genuine admiration flashed in Long Yu's eyes.

"The pure kinetic energy contained in this shot has far exceeded the range that a vitality index of 5500 points should have!"

"Your physical aptitude is very high."

He offered his assessment gently.

Then, with a slight tremor, he deflected Qin Feng's spear with his longsword.

"continue."

His eyes were full of anticipation.

"Let me see your true offensive methods!"

"it is good!"

Qin Feng's fighting spirit was completely ignited!
He held nothing back anymore!
The next second, his entire demeanor suddenly changed.

"Thousand-Army Spears"! "Dragon and Snake Spears"! "Wind and Thunder Long Staff"!
He had already mastered all the killing techniques he had cultivated to the point of "control," and he could wield them with ease and fluidity!

His spear thrusts were sometimes like a thousand troops charging forward, majestic and powerful, filled with the brutality of iron and blood!
At times, it is like a dragon or snake rising from the land, unpredictable and treacherous. The shadow of the gun changes constantly within a small space, cunning and ruthless, aiming straight for the vital points!

At times, it was also accompanied by the power of wind and thunder. Every thrust of the spear seemed to be accompanied by the sound of thunder. It was extremely fast and extremely fierce!
And amidst this storm of spear attacks, he also mixed in fist and palm techniques that had also reached the point of "control"!
The Ferocious Bird Fist! The Mountain-Crushing Fist! The Jade-Shattering Hand!
He would sometimes abandon his gun and fight the knife with his fists, displaying unparalleled ferocity!
At times, while thrusting his spear like a dragon, his left hand would transform into a palm and strike the dragon jade's defensive blind spot in a bizarre manner!

In an instant, the entire pure white virtual space was filled only with his ever-changing figure, and the sky full of deadly gun shadows and fist winds!
Faced with such a ferocious and relentless offensive, Long Yu remained on the defensive and never attacked.

He stood still, as if rooted to the spot, never moving an inch.

The alloy longsword in his hand transformed into an impenetrable silver light curtain, firmly protecting him within it.

No matter how fierce, unpredictable, or swift Qin Feng's attacks were.

They were all unable to break through that seemingly thin but actually indestructible barrier of blades.

Long Yu did not use any fancy killing moves, only the most basic parry, block, deflect, and lead.

Qin Feng's offensive became faster and more ferocious!

He poured out everything he had learned and understood in the blood and fire over the past decades without reservation!
Finally, after another fierce clash of guns and knives...

Using the force of the recoil, Qin Feng drifted backward dozens of meters.

He held the guns in both hands, standing in front of him, and at that moment, his entire aura calmed down.

He slowly closed his eyes.

In my mind, I conjured up the image of that eternal, immortal, and supreme figure who guarded the endless territory of the human empire.

An unparalleled majesty and authority, emanating from the emperor, began to slowly gather within him.

At the same time, the will to kill that he had cultivated over the past decades began to intertwine and merge within his body.

Ultimately, everything converged on the alloy spear in his hand!

Qin Feng's strongest killing move—[Golden Palace]!
Qin Feng moved.

He no longer unleashed the earth-shattering speed he had before.

He simply took a slow, forward step.

One step down.

He slowly thrust out the spear in his hand.

That shot looked so slow.

It was so slow that it seemed even an ordinary person could easily dodge it.

But in Long Yu's eyes, this shot sealed off all his space to dodge.

A dazzling, unprecedented light burst forth in Long Yu's eyes!
He swung his sword and unleashed a deadly move, blocking Qin Feng's [Golden Palace] killing strike.

He burst into laughter, filled with unbridled joy.

"What a brilliant move, the Golden Palace!"

For the first time, he took the initiative to raise his long sword to meet the attack!

……

The pure white virtual space slowly dissipated.

Qin Feng and Long Yu reappeared in the dark gold, solemn teleportation hall.

Qin Feng's face showed a hint of exhilaration after a moment of unbridled pleasure.

Long Yu looked at the junior in front of him with undisguised admiration and praise in his eyes.

"Your killing technique is extremely advanced."

"Your strength, endurance, and speed far exceed what a martial artist with the same vitality index should possess."

He paused, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Congratulations, junior Qin Feng."

"Successfully joined the team."
-
After Qin Feng successfully joined the team, Long Yu did not immediately take them off.

Because we are still one player short.

Qin Feng and Wen Muyun, who were standing to the side, did not ask any further questions.

They all knew that preparations for a task of "hellish" difficulty must be made with utmost care.

Every step must be done flawlessly.

It didn't take long.

The A-1 main teleportation halo, which had been silent for so long, suddenly lit up with an incomparably dazzling and blinding golden light!

The light was so intense that it even tinted the entire dark gold teleportation hall with a sacred gold hue.

Immediately afterwards, a magnificent figure, taller and more imposing than anyone else before, stepped out from among them.

He was a burly man with brilliant blond hair, as majestic and imposing as a lion.

He wore a set of heavy, golden power armor covered in ornate bas-reliefs, and above his shoulder armor was a magnificent cloak made of the fur of an unknown beast, symbolizing supreme glory.

The moment he appeared, a terrifying aura, as scorching as the sun and filled with explosive power, instantly swept through the entire hall!
Qin Feng could clearly sense that the terrifying aura of the blond, muscular man in front of him was in no way inferior to that of Captain Long Yu beside him!

Another top-tier level 5 martial artist who has cultivated his vitality index to 7200 points, the "minor limit"!
"Nissan."

Looking at the newcomer, Long Yu finally revealed a relieved smile on his gentle and refined face.

"You're finally done."

"If I can't find you again, I really don't know where to find another qualified team member. It'll be like waiting for the monkey month or the horse month."

As Long Yu spoke, he pointed to Qin Feng and Wen Muyun beside him.

"We just eliminated one player who wasn't good enough. The remaining two players are both very good and extremely strong."

He first pointed to Qin Feng and introduced him, "This is junior Qin Feng."

Then he pointed to the voluptuous female martial artist: "This is Wen Mumu Yun."

Finally, he introduced Qin Feng and Wen Muyun: "This is Nissan. He's our last teammate on this mission. His strength is the same as mine, reaching the 'minor limit' of 7200 points of vitality index."

After the introductions, Nissan, the burly blond man with a lion-like appearance, glanced at Qin Feng and Wen Muyun.

When he saw Qin Feng, he was slightly taken aback at first, and then a big smile that showed his familiarity with Qin Feng appeared on his face.

"Hahaha! It's you two!"

He laughed heartily, his voice booming like a bell, echoing throughout the hall.

"One is 'Qin Beast,' and the other is 'Mu Yun Blade'! Both are renowned figures in Canaan!"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Long Yu's face showed a hint of doubt: "You know them?"

Upon hearing this, Nissan immediately rolled his eyes and said to Long Yu in a contemptuous tone, "You blockhead who wouldn't even look at the forum once in a hundred years, don't talk to me. I can't reason with you."

"Ok."

A helpless expression appeared on Long Yu's face.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Even if we spend all our time cultivating, it's still not enough."

"As you know, for martial artists like us who have cultivated the 'Supreme Aperture Opening Method' and the 'Supreme Aperture Integration Method,' this path is as difficult as ascending to heaven. Every step forward requires several times, or even dozens of times, more time and resources than others."

"I have no choice but to work hard. I have to keep pushing myself. I don't have time to browse forums."

Long Yu spoke these words with a nonchalant air.

But when Qin Feng, Wen Muyun, and even Nissan heard this, they were deeply moved and felt the same way.

Yes.

To achieve progress far exceeding that of ordinary people, one must put in far more effort than ordinary people.

There are never any shortcuts on this road.

However, Nissan glanced at Qin Feng, then at Qin Feng's profile, and said in an even more helpless tone, as if looking at a monster:

"Alright, alright. We can empathize, but Qin Feng, you shouldn't interfere."

He pointed at Qin Feng.

"Forty years have passed, and the enlightenment has been perfected! Now, another twenty-two years have passed, and the 'merging of the mind' has been completed nearly two hundred times!"

"It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy!"

His tone was filled with undisguised jealousy and envy.

Meanwhile, Long Yu, standing to the side, smiled and patted Nissan's broad shoulder, jokingly saying:

“Nisan, you only see the data on the surface. You can’t see the effort and sweat that goes into it behind the scenes.”

"Alright, you think you know best."

Nissan waved his hand: "Let's not waste time on that. Let's get down to business. How's the mission going?"

His face also dropped its joking expression and became serious.

Long Yu nodded and began to explain the information about this "hell-level" mission to everyone.

"This time, the 'Blood Blade' terrorist group that we are going to purify, according to the latest intelligence from the Inquisition, is very likely to have originated from that person who defected from Canaan—Shidan."

When the name "Shi Dang" was uttered by Long Yu.

A chilling, bone-deep coldness flashed deep in Qin Feng's eyes.

Long Yu continued, "This group of believers has already produced several powerful level six martial artists. The strongest of them have even mastered the strange 'level four killing technique' that Shi Dang spread, and have already entered the basics."

"so,"

His gaze swept across the three faces, and his tone became extremely solemn, "In this mission, we will face not only physical attacks, but also mental attacks that are even more dangerous."

"I demand that everyone wear the highest-level 'mental protection device' they can afford! Don't be stingy with your contribution points in this regard!"

"Because if one is corrupted by that chaotic spiritual power during battle, the consequences would be unimaginable."

After explaining these basic precautions, Long Yu then revealed a deeper piece of information that surprised even Qin Feng.

"In addition, there is one more thing that I need to let everyone know."

"Our team's mission this time, besides purifying those Khorne believers, actually has another more important, hidden purpose."

"We are actually the 'bait'."

"Bait?"

Wen Muyun's beautiful brows furrowed slightly.

"Yes."

Long Yu nodded and explained, "Intelligence suggests that Shi Dang himself is very likely active near that planet K-13. The reason we accepted this 'hellish' mission against his followers so publicly is to lure him out."

“Our team already has a senior student whose strength has reached the ‘planetary level’ and is secretly following us.”

"Once Shi Dangzhen appears, that senior will immediately strike and kill him with overwhelming force!"

"We will absolutely not give him any chance to escape!"
