Slaughter to Prove Your Dao: Unlock the Great Sage Equal to Heaven at the Start!

Chen was questioned.

To catch the thief, first catch the king. Once you take out the two strongest, the rest of the henchmen are no threat.

Gu Xiaoyun frowned slightly, focused her mind, and the silver light between her brows intensified:

"We can give it a try. But it will take time to investigate further."

"Moreover... once my spiritual eyes penetrate the energy shield and pinpoint their exact location..."

"Given the sensitivity to energy at the mid-level of the four realms, it is highly likely that it will be detected."

Chen Xing remained calm:

"So what if you noticed?"

"We came here to kill them anyway, so exposing ourselves doesn't matter."

Gu Xiaoyun glanced at him, at his always calm and expressionless face.

It seems that he really doesn't care at all about being "discovered by the middle level of the four realms".

A sense of absurdity welled up in her heart again, but she said nothing more.

He simply nodded and said, "Wait for me for three minutes."

She closed her eyes, and the silver light on her forehead seemed tangible.

He activated his spiritual eye with all his might, attempting to penetrate the energy shield deep underground and pinpoint the location precisely.

Chen Xing was on high alert, his sharp eyes scanning for any possible changes.

Three minutes later, Gu Xiaoyun opened her eyes.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his breathing became slightly rapid, indicating that he had expended a lot of energy.

"Locked up. Three underground levels in the East Wing, at the deepest point, a separate room."

"Both of the mid-level four realm cultivators are inside, their qi and blood fluctuations are stable, it seems they are..."

"To rest or to discuss something."

"In addition, those six peak-stage third realm cultivators are located in several other rooms on the second and third basement levels."

"There are also about forty peripheral members from the first and second realms, scattered throughout the passageways and guard posts on various levels."

"very good."

A cold glint flashed in Chen Xing's eyes.

"Plan remains unchanged. Clear the outer perimeter first, then charge in."

"You point out the location, I'll get to work. Let's finish this quickly."

Gu Xiaoyun nodded and closed her eyes again.

The Spirit Eye switches to a low-cost passive perception mode.

He accurately reported the location of every sentry and patrolman to Chen Xing.

The movement trajectory, and even the momentary weaknesses in the circulation of Qi and blood.

Chen Xingru blended into the ghostly night, and with the aid of the Shadow Shuttle battle suit, his aura almost completely disappeared.

Carrying the Sky-Splitting Staff, he began a silent sweeping operation, following Gu Xiaoyun's instructions.

The first sentry was hidden in the shadow of the iron beams of the towering mining frame.

With a slight movement of his feet, Chen Xing activated his somersault cloud, and his body floated up as if weightless.

The Heaven-Splitting Staff, imbued with hidden force, struck the back of his neck.

The sentry's body went limp and he collapsed, where Chen Xing gently laid him down.

The second sentry, hiding behind an abandoned minecart, was vigilantly looking around.

With keen eyesight, they could see through the mine cart and pinpoint its location.

Chen Xing circled around to the side and rear, and with a swift chop, precisely severed his heart meridian.

The third one, the fourth one...

The two worked together seamlessly and were incredibly efficient.

Those members of the Shadow Outer Circle who are at the first and second realms.

It was cleaned up silently before any alarm could be sounded.

When Chen Xing occasionally encountered patrol teams of three, he would use a freezing spell to instantly control the situation.

Then, with a flurry of stick strikes, a triple kill was achieved.

In less than half an hour, all thirty-odd Shadow members on the surface and in shallow underground around the mining area were eliminated.

A faint smell of blood filled the air.

But the darkness and the desolation of the abandoned mining area concealed all of this perfectly.

The two sneaked into the main entrance, following an abandoned mine tunnel covered in dust and cobwebs.

They entered the underground without making a sound.

The second basement level has even more complex passageways, resembling a maze.

But with Gu Xiaoyun's spiritual eyes guiding the way and her discerning judgment, all obstacles became insignificant.

They avoided populated areas and targeted gaps in patrol routes and blind spots in surveillance to continue clearing the area.

Just as they cleared out the last peak-stage third realm cultivator from the second underground level and were preparing to head to the third level—

Woo-woo-woo-woo!

The piercing alarm suddenly blared from all directions!

Red warning lights flashed wildly in the dimly lit corridor!

The entire underground space was instantly enveloped in blinding red light and heart-pounding alarm sounds!

"We've been discovered!" Gu Xiaoyun's expression changed slightly, and her soft sword instantly came out of its sheath, gleaming with silver light.

Her spiritual eyes instantly detected it deep underground.

Those two powerful auras, belonging to the middle level of the fourth realm, were like ferocious beasts that had been awakened.

It erupted with a roar and rapidly approached their location!

Moreover, both the front and back of the passage.

The sound of dense and rapid footsteps could also be heard, indicating that a large number of armed men were closing in!

"Perfect."

Chen Xing seemed completely unconcerned about the piercing alarm; he gripped the Sky-Splitting Staff tightly.

The crimson flame patterns on the stick began to glow faintly, "to save us the trouble of searching for them one by one."

No sooner had he finished speaking than they appeared at the corner of the passage ahead.

A chilling, venomous aura, carrying the stench of blood, was the first to appear.

A man wearing a black, tight-fitting leather jacket, with a pale face and dark purple lips.

A middle-aged man, holding a strangely shaped, dark red, serrated longsword, slowly walked out.

He stared at Gu Xiaoyun, licked his lips with his scarlet tongue, and his eyes gleamed with lewdness and cruelty:

"Ling Tong? That girl from Jiangnan Martial Arts University, Gu Xiaoyun?"

"Tsk tsk, what a waste of such a pretty face and figure."

"I was originally planning to capture them alive for fun, but since you're courting death, I'll grant your wish."

At the same time, heavy footsteps could be heard coming from the rear passage.

A man over two meters tall with bulging muscles all over his body.

A bald, giant man wearing only leather shorts and covered in scars blocked their escape route.

His gaze swept over Chen Xing, a hint of doubt and violence flashing in his eyes:

"Shenzhen Martial Arts University? Lower-level Third Realm?"

"You think you can just trespass on my Shadow's stronghold? This isn't the way to throw your life away!"

They were attacked from both sides, and their retreat was blocked.

The cold-blooded swordsman is at the middle level of the fourth realm, with a strange aura, and is skilled in speed and the use of poison.

The bald giant is also at the middle level of the fourth realm, and he follows a path of pure power burst.

Gu Xiaoyun activated her spiritual eyes to the fullest extent, and the silver light in her eyes almost overflowed.

She quickly whispered to Chen Xing:

"Be careful of the one with the knife, codenamed 'Blood Serpent.' He's incredibly fast, and the poison on his knife is a real problem; getting it on you will cause serious trouble."

"That big guy is called 'Berserk Bear.' He's incredibly strong, but relatively slow. Don't try to outmuscle him."

Chen Xing, however, had already turned around, carrying the Sky-Splitting Cudgel.

They faced head-on the bald giant "Bear" who was blocking their retreat.

"The 'Blood Serpent' with the knife is yours."

Chen Xing's voice was calm and even, as if he were assigning a trivial task.

"This big guy is mine."

Gu Xiaoyun was stunned. Before she could react, Chen Xing had already moved!

A slight gust of air surged beneath my feet, and the Somersault Cloud provided an instant burst of acceleration!

Chen Xing charged straight at the berserk bear like a cannonball!

The Heaven-Splitting Staff in his hand was imbued with the scorching blood and energy of the Lesser Complete Nine Forms of Burning Heaven.

The first move, "Blazing Sky," is straightforward and unpretentious, simply crashing down!

A flash of furious rage at being slighted crossed the bear's eyes. He grinned maliciously, neither dodging nor avoiding the attack.

His right fist muscles suddenly swelled up as if inflated, and with a shrill whistling sound that tore through the air, he punched the falling Sky-Splitting Staff!

"court death!"

boom--!!!

Fists and sticks clashed fiercely!

A terrifying thud echoed through the passageway!

The blast of air shook the dust off the walls on both sides!

The scene that the bear had envisioned—smashing the opponent's stick with one punch and even breaking the opponent's arm—did not occur.

On the contrary, he felt a weight far greater than he had imagined, as heavy as a mountain.

A terrifying power, as hot as molten lava, emanated from the staff!

His thick arm suddenly sank, and he was so struck by the stick that he staggered back three steps!

Every step left a deep footprint on the hard concrete floor!

His eyes were instantly filled with shock: "Lower level of the Third Realm?! This power..."

However, Chen Xing's second strike, "Wildfire," was already upon them!

The force of the blows intensified, and the combined power caused the air to explode!

The bear roared and crossed its arms to block!

Bang! Crack!

The cracking sound is clearly audible!

The bear felt excruciating pain in both arms and was knocked backward by the impact once again!

Chen Xing pressed his advantage relentlessly, unleashing his third move, "Fire Serpent Dance," which followed him like a shadow, its cunning staff aimed directly at his vulnerable chest and abdomen!

On the other side, Gu Xiaoyun also got into a fight with the Blood Serpent.

Her soft sword moved as nimbly as a silver snake, its blade flashing.

Intertwined into a net, relying on the Spirit Eye's accurate prediction of the blood snake's attack trajectory.

Despite the difference in their cultivation levels, they managed to defend themselves flawlessly for a time, blocking all of the Blood Serpent's eerie and swift crimson blade light.

Unable to break through after a prolonged attack, the Blood Serpent's eyes blazed with increasing ferocity.

His figure suddenly blurred, transforming into several indistinguishable blood-red afterimages, lunging at Gu Xiaoyun from different angles!

At the same time, the blade of the blood-red saber in his hand suddenly shone brightly, carrying a sweet and foul poisonous mist that completely enveloped Gu Xiaoyun!

Gu Xiaoyun's pupils contracted, and her spiritual eyes were activated to the maximum.

I tried my best to distinguish the real body, but the opponent was too fast and left too many afterimages!

She thrust her sword at the most likely afterimage, but missed!

The real Blood Serpent appeared beside her like a ghost, its blood-red blade grinning maliciously as it pierced straight at her ribs!

They were about to succeed!

At this critical moment—

"Certainly!"
