A Martial Saint in Chaotic Times: Starting with Grinding Proficiency

Chapter 102 Massacre

Zhou Yuan caught a glimpse of five dark figures out of the corner of his eye, and his heart skipped a beat.

When did these five people appear?

My six senses have long been enhanced, and I can perceive the slightest movement around me, yet I completely failed to notice their presence.

This ability to conceal one's presence is not something that can be achieved with ordinary martial arts skills.

Moreover, their target was actually Lü Chong!

In the brief moment that Zhou Yuan was distracted, Zhao Qingfeng's knife and Du Chong's palm were already upon him.

A strong sense of crisis brought him back to his senses.

Zhou Yuan exerted force with his right hand, punching Duan Fei, who was tightly hugging his waist, hard in the back of the heart.

Bang!Bang!

Amidst the dull thuds of the blows, Duan Fei's body trembled violently, yet he stubbornly held on with his last breath, his arms tightly gripping Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan only had time to turn to the side and use his right shoulder to block Zhao Qingfeng's Bloodthirsty Blade.

Tear!

The blade sliced ​​through the clothes, penetrating deep into the flesh, drawing a trail of blood.

Despite the excruciating pain, Zhou Yuan remained silent.

Because on the other side, Du Chong's insidious palm strike had already landed solidly on his left arm.

A chilling force instantly penetrated his body, damaging his meridians.

Zhou Yuan's entire left arm suddenly went numb, and then a layer of visible black color rapidly spread from the palm print.

poisoned!

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battle...

The five members of the Dark Abyss silently entered the battle.

They didn't make any unnecessary moves; their attacks were always the most direct and lethal.

puff!puff!puff!

Several bandits who were still resisting didn't even see the figure clearly before their throats were slit open, and they fell down with faces full of astonishment.

The already exhausted patrol soldiers collapsed instantly when faced with the attack of these five fresh troops.

"Who goes there!"

Xue Min was both shocked and furious. She forced back the enemy in front of her with a shot and turned around to intercept him without thinking.

However, she was facing five perfectly coordinated assassins.

Five people attacked her simultaneously from five different angles, their fists, palms, fingers, and claws sealing off all her escape routes.

Xue Min only had time to hold the spear horizontally in front of her chest before five forces struck her simultaneously.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, the steel spear in Xue Min's hand bent instantly. She was thrown back by a tremendous force, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and her body went limp as she collapsed, unconscious on the spot.

one move!

With just one move, he severely injured a genius at the peak of the Yi Jin Realm!

The five members of the Dark Abyss group didn't even glance at her. The elder in the lead moved swiftly and appeared beside Lü Chong, lifting her up with one hand and hoisting her onto his shoulder.

The entire process was completed without any delays.

"Walk!"

The old man gave a low shout, and the five people were about to leave.

"Put him down!"

Zhou Yuan's eyes were bloodshot; these five people were clearly taking advantage of his misfortune!

He wanted to chase after them, but Zhao Qingfeng and Du Chong held him back.

"Zhou Yuan, don't waste your energy."

Du Chong struck successfully, a cruel smile appearing on his face.

"My Five Poison Palm technique was originally prepared for that old bastard Zhu Xiaowen. Once a martial artist at the fourth level of Body Tempering is afflicted by this poison, their meridians will rot from the inside out, inch by inch, beyond the saving grace of even a god!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuan's heart sank.

He could feel the chilling aura emanating from his left arm spreading rapidly, causing blood and qi to stagnate and life to cease wherever it passed.

"roar!"

Zhou Yuan let out a roar that sounded inhuman.

Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill, Second Level, Full Power Operation!

The immense force of six thousand jin was unleashed without reservation.

He ignored Zhao Qingfeng and Du Chong's attacks, letting the blades and palm strikes land on his body, creating clouds of blood mist.

He poured all his strength into his fists and slammed them into Duan Fei, who was already unconscious in his arms.

His fists blurred into afterimages, delivering over a dozen punches that landed squarely on Duan Fei's head and arms.

The cracking sounds of bones breaking were so dense they seemed to come together in one continuous burst.

Under Zhao Qingfeng's horrified gaze, Duan Fei's head exploded on the spot, and the two arms that were tightly locking Zhou Yuan were brutally smashed into a pulp.

Release the restraints!

Zhou Yuan suddenly looked up, his crimson eyes fixed on the distance.

The figures of the five members of the Dark Abyss had already disappeared into the distance behind the rain.

Xue Min lay in a pool of blood not far away, her fate unknown.

The dark spots on his left arm had spread to his shoulder, and a piercing pain and numbness were intertwined, eroding his sanity.

"Second brother!"

When Zhao Qingfeng saw Duan Fei's miserable state, his eyes instantly turned bloodshot.

"I'll make you pay with your life!"

Completely consumed by hatred, he raised the Bloodthirsty Blade and charged at Zhou Yuan once more.

Du Chong, on the other side, looked at Zhou Yuan at this moment and felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet and straight to the top of his head.

Run! We have to run right now!

The thought popped into his head.

Zhou Yuan slowly turned his head, his cold eyes landing on Zhao Qingfeng who was rushing towards him.

He didn't dodge; instead, he took a step forward and met the attack head-on.

There are no moves, no techniques, only the most primal clash of forces.

boom!

Fist and knife clashed once more.

This time, Zhao Qingfeng could no longer hold the demon sword in his hand.

The Bloodthirsty Blade flew out of his hand and pierced the ground diagonally in the distance.

Zhou Yuan's fist, however, continued its momentum and landed squarely on Zhao Qingfeng's chest.

Click!

The sound of the sternum collapsing could be clearly heard.

Zhao Qingfeng's massive body flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground.

Zhou Yuan caught up, straddling him, and his fist, as big as a casserole dish, filled with killing intent, slammed down wildly.

One punch, two punches, three punches —

The earth trembled, and rain mixed with blood splashed everywhere.

With a few punches, Zhao Qingfeng's body was hammered into the bluestone ground more than half a foot deep, and he was no longer heard from it.

Du Chong, who was watching from a distance, felt his legs go weak and almost collapsed to the ground.

died!

Zhao Qingfeng, the leader of Qinglong Village in Black Wind Mountain and a peak Marrow Cleansing Realm cultivator, was beaten to death!

Along with the second-in-command Duan Fei, the entire leadership of Qinglong Village was wiped out by this young man alone!

He pulled up Qin Lie, who was already terrified, and turned to run.

He then realized that the man in the straw hat who had been hiding in the shadows had disappeared without him noticing.

Zhou Yuan slowly stood up and turned his gaze to the direction Du Chong had fled.

He wanted to give chase, but the deadly poison in his left arm suddenly erupted at that moment.

A strong wave of dizziness washed over him, causing him to sway and nearly fall over.

We must not recklessly expend our energy and blood.

He forcibly suppressed the urge to pursue and looked around.

The square was littered with corpses and rivers of blood.

The remaining bandits dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground, trembling.

The remaining five or six patrol soldiers were looking at him with a mixture of awe and fear.

Zhou Yuan took a deep breath, forcibly calming his churning blood and qi.

Lü Chong has been captured; this matter must be reported immediately.

He walked up to a soldier in armor and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Take Commander Xue, and—their corpses."

Zhou Yuan pointed to the corpses of Zhao Qingfeng and Duan Fei on the ground.

"Back to the city!"
