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

They looked at the carcass of the alligator snapping turtle, nailed to the ground with its head almost blown off.

Looking at the horrific traces of battle around me, and feeling the lingering echoes in the air...

The chilling aura of the purple-gold staff and the destructive thunderclap were palpable on the faces of all the demonic beasts.

They all revealed incredulous horror and boundless rage.

"Chase them! They can't have gone far!"

"Seriously injured, they must still be nearby!"

A fifth-tier superior demonic tiger roared.

However, Chen Xing and Li Yixiao had already disappeared into the vast and dangerous Ten Thousand Mountains, their whereabouts unknown.

……

Dozens of miles away, deep within a mountain crevice concealed by the flow of a waterfall.

Chen Xing returned to human form, leaning against the cold, damp rock wall, barely able to move a finger.

He was gasping for breath, each breath carrying the smell of blood and a stinging pain in his lungs.

With trembling hands, he took out the last two bottles of high-concentration vitality liquid from the Void Ring.

He gulped it down in one go, and then swallowed a few pills to stabilize his soul.

Then he could no longer hold on, and his consciousness fell into a dazed state between consciousness and wakefulness.

His body instinctively activated the Thunder Breathing Technique.

Absorbing the elixirs and the scarce energy of this place, it slowly repaired its body, which was on the verge of collapse.

I don't know how much time passed, maybe an hour, maybe longer.

Chen Xing's consciousness slowly returned to normal.

The excruciating pain still spread throughout my body, but at least my life was no longer in danger.

He looked inward and saw that his injuries were still severe.

However, it is slowly and steadily healing with the abnormal regenerative power of the SS-level Undying Battle Saint Body.

His mental strength has also recovered by 10% or 20%.

He needs to regain some mobility as soon as possible, leave this place, and return to Shenzhen.

Meanwhile, in another direction.

In the mountains and forests more than a hundred miles away from where Chen Xing was located.

Li Yixiao leaned against the trunk of an ancient tree, his face still pale, but his breathing had become much more steady.

His injuries were equally severe, but the strength of Shanghai Martial Arts University and the recovery ability of the SS-level Thunder God Body made him stronger.

This helped stabilize his injuries.

He raised his head and looked southeast, in the direction of Shenzhen Wuhan University.

Deep within those cold, purple, thunderous eyes, a faint glimmer of expectation flashed and disappeared.

"Chen Xing..."

He murmured the name to himself, then turned around.

It transformed into a dim yet still swift bolt of lightning, hurtling towards the Demon City.

……

As dawn broke among the mountains, the first rays of sunlight dispelled the stench of the night.

Chen Xing drove the off-road vehicle that had been hidden outside the mountains out of the continuous green mountain range.

Xiao Xiao's voice softly came through the recorder, filled with curiosity:

"Brother Xing, you and that Li Yixiao..."

"We've been through thick and thin together this time. Do you... consider yourselves friends?"

Chen Xing stared at the winding road ahead, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke, his voice calm:

"Count as an opponent."

"Huh? An opponent?"

Xiao Xiao was somewhat puzzled.

"But you two worked so well together, he even blocked attacks for you, and you saved him too..."

"Precisely because they are rivals,"

Chen Xing interrupted her, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon, where a wider stage seemed to await.

"Only by realizing each other's strengths and weaknesses can we know how to defeat him the next time we meet."

Xiao Xiao paused for a moment, then gave a vague "oh" and muttered to herself:

"You geniuses have such strange ideas..."

Chen Xing didn't explain further, but simply pressed the accelerator lightly.

The Qitian Chariot let out a low roar and accelerated towards Shencheng.

……

The rented military off-road vehicle bumped and sped along the rugged mountain road back to Chengdu.

Chen Xing sat in the driver's seat, his face still somewhat pale.

But his eyes had returned to their usual cold and calm expression.

The emerald green murderous intent of the Demon Cave 024 was gradually left behind by the car.

He spared a sliver of his attention and sank into his consciousness. The pale golden system panel unfolded.

Current kill count: 35000 points.

[Divine Position Integration Degree]: 42%.

[Supernatural Power]: ...Immobilization Technique (Minor Success).

Immobilization Technique, Minor Success Level.

It played a key role in the previous life-or-death battle against the alligator snapping turtle.

However, when facing a more powerful enemy, the control time is short.

The high energy consumption also has obvious drawbacks. It's time for an upgrade.

"Master, increase the proficiency of the Immobilization Technique from Minor Mastery to Major Mastery."

[Command confirmed!]

[Ding! Consumed 10000 kill points, Immobilization Skill proficiency increased: Minor Success → Major Success!]

A deeper understanding of "spatial confinement," "energy blockade," and "soul suppression" surged into his mind.

The Great Perfection of the Immobilization Technique significantly extends the control time and greatly reduces energy consumption.

Most importantly, it can lock onto multiple targets simultaneously for brief suppression.

Although the control effect will be weakened accordingly, its tactical value is huge in group battles and complex situations.

Nodding in satisfaction, Chen Xing took out another Grade 5 healing pill and swallowed it.

The elixir transformed into a gentle yet powerful medicinal force, nourishing his damaged internal organs, meridians, and bones.

Combined with the regenerative power of the SS-rank Undying Battle Saint Body, the injuries improved at a visible speed.

It quickly recovered to about 70-80%.

He looked at the system panel again.

In the Realm section, it is the lower level of the four realms.

To advance to the middle level of the fourth realm, 30000 kill points are required.

There are currently 25000 points remaining, and we are still 5000 points short.

"No rush, there might be other opportunities along the way."

Chen Xing pondered this in his mind, his gaze drifting towards the desolate mountain scenery rushing past the car window.

This is an extension of the outer perimeter of the 024 Demon Cave, although the density of monsters has greatly decreased.

However, occasionally some low-level monsters or desperate criminals will still appear.

It's not hard to accumulate 5000 kill points.

However, he didn't expect the next "opportunity".

It will come so swiftly, so deadly.

The off-road vehicle drove into a desolate canyon with steep cliffs on both sides.

It was already evening, and the sky was already dark.

The canyon was even darker, with only the car headlights piercing the darkness ahead.

Suddenly, a warning bell rang in Chen Xing's mind!

The Great Fiery Eyes operated automatically, uncontrollably.

A burst of golden light flashed in his pupils as he looked up at the sky!

The sky, which had been dim, suddenly turned as black as ink!

A terrifying pressure filled with ancient and evil aura.

Like the sky collapsing, it crashed down and enveloped the entire canyon!

The air froze, and the sound of the wind vanished.

Even the sound of wheels rolling over gravel seemed to be swallowed up!

Immediately following, a gigantic hand appeared, its fingertips gleaming with a chilling blue light, obscuring the sky and the sun.

It tore through the thick clouds, carrying with it a vast and destructive demonic aura.

Take a hard shot at that tiny, ant-like off-road vehicle in the canyon!

Before the hand even arrived, the terrifying wind pressure had already caused the rocky ground around the off-road vehicle to sink inch by inch!

Chen Xing could even hear the creaking and groaning of the car's metal frame as it could no longer bear the weight!

Sixth rank! And a sixth-rank demonic beast with king-level bloodline!

He took matters into his own hands!

Chen Xing instantly understood the other party's identity and purpose.

It must be a greedy hunter attracted by the White Tiger Demon Lord's thousandfold bounty!

One of them hid in the shadows, hesitated, and observed for a long time.

Ultimately, it was blinded by the terrifying bounty that was enough to allow its bloodline to advance.

They chose this moment, when Chen Xing was furthest from the protection of human powerhouses, to launch a ruthless and deadly attack!

The goal was clear, and the timing was precise.

They acted ruthlessly, without any probing or warning!

This is a very experienced one.

The cunning and cruel hunting methods of a sixth-tier demon emperor!

There's no escaping it!

Given Chen Xing's current condition and the speed of the Somersault Cloud.

There is nowhere to hide under this giant hand that covers the entire canyon!
