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

Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Warm dappled sunlight cast on the floor of the meditation room on the third floor of Villa No. 7 in Tinglanyuan.

Chen Xing stood by the window, gazing at the bustling crowds and vibrant scene on the distant campus.

He has just finished the initial adaptation and power control training of the SS-level Undying Battle Saint Body.

The purplish-gold blood and qi within his body slowly returned to calm.

Lin Moyan will arrive in three days.

Twenty days later, it will be the freshman competition at Shenzhen Wuhan University.

I heard that the quality of this year's freshmen is extremely high, with six provincial top scorers enrolling early.

This includes Qiu Wenwen.

I wonder if there's anyone who can get him to take things a little more seriously?

The excitement from his leap in strength was still lingering in his body, but Chen Xing's eyes...

But it was calmer than ever before.

He knew that the real danger never disappeared just because you became stronger.

It will only strike again in a more brutal manner.

As if to confirm his premonition.

hum.

On the inside of my left wrist, there was a silver-white mission recorder chip.

Without warning, it trembled slightly and emitted a faint warmth.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Xiao's expression turned serious.

A voice, completely different from his usual lively self, resounded directly in his mind.

It uses the highest priority encrypted communication channel:

"Brother Xing, urgent intelligence."

"We have just intercepted an encrypted signal from the direction of Cave 079 via the war zone's internal communication network. Decryption is complete."

Chen Xing's eyes narrowed, but he didn't respond; he just listened quietly.

"Signal content displayed,"

Xiao Xiao's voice was cold.

"Inside Cave 079, there exists a high-ranking figure codenamed 'Master'."

"It has been confirmed that the ambush plan at Broken Soul Valley has completely failed."

"After all its forces, including the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, were annihilated, it went into a state of rage."

"It has reissued the bounty order against you within its sphere of influence."

"The bounty level has been directly upgraded from 'high priority' to 'killable' level."

"Ranked among the top three on its internal bounty list."

"At the same time, your bounty includes monster materials and energy crystals."

"And the quotas of certain 'resources' in human society have been increased tenfold from the original level."

"This means that, going forward, not only will the monsters in the 079 Demon Cave attack you with even greater recklessness."

"Those human traitorous organizations that are affiliated with the Demon Cave, as well as some desperate outlaws attracted by high bounties."

"They might see you as a walking treasure trove and hunt you down at all costs."

Chen Xing's face remained expressionless, but his eyes grew even colder.

Xiao Xiao paused for a moment, then continued:

"Also, there are new developments from the 'Shadow' organization."

"They seem to have direct contact with the higher-ups at the 079 Demon Cave."

"After learning of the deaths of Mr. Wang and others, they came from several other war zones."

"At least three core members with strength at the middle level of the fourth realm have been urgently transferred and are secretly assembling in the southern war zone."

"The purpose... is self-evident; it's most likely aimed at you."

"They won't give up after one failure; instead, they'll put in even more effort."

"To save face and ensure that 'that person's' orders are fulfilled."

"Three in the middle of the four realms..."

Chen Xing repeated it in a low voice, his tone flat.

There was no trace of fear in his voice; instead, there was a hint of cold amusement.

Xiao Xiao said worriedly:

"Brother Xing, the middle level of the fourth realm and the lower level of the fourth realm are completely different concepts."

"Their blood quality, energy control, and combat experience far surpass those of the lower ranks."

"Especially for organizations like Shadow that walk in the shadows, the methods of their core members are even more mysterious and difficult to guard against."

"Although you have broken through, but..."

"When I killed those of lower rank in the four realms..."

Chen Xing interrupted her, his voice still calm, yet carrying an undeniable certainty.

"I was at the peak of the second realm, with an S-rank talent. Now, I am at the lower level of the third realm, with an SS-rank talent."

Xiao Xiao's voice stopped abruptly, as if she was choked by this simple comparison.

She paused for two seconds, then said with a hint of helplessness and sigh:

"...That's true. Their abnormal growth rate is something they simply can't keep up with or predict."

"They thought the forces they sent would be enough to crush you, but they didn't know that you were no longer the 'peak second-realm genius' they had in their intelligence."

Chen Xing's gaze returned to the bright sunlight outside the window.

But his eyes were colder than the shadows outside the window.

"They thought,"

He spoke slowly, each word seemingly chilled by ice.

"I would hide in the school, this 'safe zone,' feeling anxious and uneasy."

"Wait for their next, more sophisticated assassination, or for the hyenas drawn by the high bounty to tear them apart."

"But I will let them know,"

He clenched his fist, and a fleeting purplish-gold light flashed beneath his skin.

"The hunter and the prey, from the very beginning, they made the wrong choice."

Since the other party has raised the bounty to a kill level, and since Shadow has sent out even stronger assassins.

Since those hyenas were itching to pounce on the smell of blood...

Then he took the initiative.

Actively direct this impending bloodshed towards the enemy!

That afternoon, Chen Xing changed into a clean black combat uniform.

With the Sky-Splitting Staff on his back, he once again entered the War Academy Mission Hall.

The hall was still bustling with people, and a huge holographic screen displayed a variety of tasks.

Chen Xing walked straight to the latest self-service terminals and swiped his SS+ student card.

His fingers swiped rapidly across the touchscreen.

The options are directly filtered to be of "S" level and located in the "Southern Theater".

The screen refreshed, and a dozen or so S-rank missions with shimmering dark gold borders and exuding a dangerous aura popped up.

His gaze swept quickly across the list, finally settling on one of the tasks:

[Mission ID]: S-079-Clearance-007

[Task Level]: S

[Mission Content]: According to reliable intelligence, a human traitor organization codenamed "Shadow" is entrenched in the heart of the Southern Theater.

Its key stronghold in the Blackstone mining area has been active recently, and it is suspected that it is gathering forces and plotting something sinister.

This outpost has long been supplying intelligence and materials to Cave 079.

They also sheltered and trained traitorous martial artists, posing a great threat.

We now need to dispatch elite forces to launch a surprise attack and wipe out the stronghold, completely eradicating this cancer.

Requirement: Eliminate all Shadow Core members within the stronghold.

Destroy its command system and supply depots, and obtain as much evidence as possible of its collusion with the 079 Demon Cave.

[Mission Location]: Southern Theater Command, former Blackstone Mine Area No. 17 (now abandoned).

[Task Rewards]:

Shenzhen Wushu University credits: 3000 points

Special contribution reward (based on completion rate)

The captured supplies can be distributed proportionally.

[Task Requirements]: The recipient must possess strength at least at the fourth realm.

Or possess combat abilities sufficient to rival those of the four realms.

It is recommended to form an elite team to carry out the task, with the risk rating for a single person being "death level".

[Note]: It is known that at least two core members of the "Shadow" rank at the fourth realm are stationed at this stronghold.

The number of its subordinate armed militants is unknown, and the terrain of the mining area is complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and may contain a large number of traps and fortifications.

S-rank mission!

Target location: Blackrock Mine, Shadow Organization stronghold!

It is known that at least two mid-level experts from the fourth realm are stationed here!

The notes explicitly warn of a "death level" risk!

This is exactly what he wanted.

Without any hesitation, Chen Xing tapped the "Request Acceptance" button.

A notification pops up on the screen: "[Detecting recipient information and conditions...]"

[Receiver: Chen Xing, SS+ student of Shenzhen Martial Arts University, current realm: Third Realm Battle General (lower level).]

[Conditions not met (requires level four or above, or comparable combat power). Initiating additional combat power assessment procedure...]

[Under evaluation...Under evaluation...]

The cursor is blinking.

This time, the evaluation time seemed to be a bit longer than the last time I received an A+ level task, about ten seconds.

[Ding! Overall combat capability assessment passed! Determination: Possesses the potential to undertake S-level extermination missions.]

[WARNING: This mission is rated "Death Level" and teamwork is strongly recommended.]

[Single-person survival rate assessment is less than 10%. Confirm acceptance?]

"Confirmed." Chen Xing's voice was calm.

[Accepted successfully! Mission ID S-079-Clearance-007 is now bound.]

Please report to the Southern Theater Command (Shenzhen Branch) within three days to obtain detailed intelligence and operational clearance. Failure to report by the deadline will be considered a waiver of your right to operate.

Chen Xing put away the student card and turned to leave.

"Fellow student!" Behind the counter next to him, a staff member responsible for handling task handover said.
