Gu Qing Shan looked at the bone spikes on his back and sighed.
He tilted his head and spoke to the Holo-Brain on the ground: "Record: A Man Killer Fiend's 5th stage has appeared, other than a Martial Saint, a 4th stage Elementalist, or a deeply awakened God's Chosen, no one else is a match"
"Recorded. Beginning image input." A female voice came from the Holo-Brain, "Furthermore, I need to remind sir Gu Qing Shan, according to your recorded battle model, sir also has no way of winning against the opponent"
"I have to stall him, otherwise these people will all die" Gu Qing Shan said.
Impartial Goddess paused a bit, then quickly spoke: [Currently dispatching reinforcements, please hold your ground sir]
Gu Qing Shan lightly nodded.
He looked at the young man and spoke with a serious expression: "Nice to meet you"
The young man was a bit surprised, then replied: "Nice to meet you"
Gu Qing Shan then spoke to the Holo-Brain: "Although I've been infected, a few basic human habits haven't been removed, like greeting and greeting"
[Recorded]
Gu Qing Shan looked at the young man again, asking: "Do you still remember your family?"
With a 'bang', the Holo-Brain was shattered into pieces by the bloody light.
The young man showed a mocking expression, asking: "Shouldn't you be writing your will now? Or could it be that the words just now were your will? "
"Seems like you do remember, but you don't want to mention it" Gu Qing Shan looked at the broken Holo-Brain and scowled: "Randomly destroying other people's things, no manners"
Hearing that, the young man froze.
A second later, a thick mist of blood came from his body. Streams of blood, both bright and dark, turned into flames, burning on his hand.
"Bastard, you dare say I don't have manners" the young man's blood-red eyes were filled with madness.
"I'll kill you right now!"
The bone spikes on his back expanded again, the mist of blood attached to them, wriggling like a living pair of wings.
Spreading his wings, the young man leapt up.
He reached his hand out to Gu Qing Shan from afar.
Gu Qing Shan's heart jumped, feeling an intense sense of danger.
[Ground Shrink] activated!
Boom!
A blood-red flame appeared out of nowhere, blasting a deep hole where Gu Qing Shan was standing.
"Dead — no, where is he?" The relaxed expression on the young man's face suddenly froze.
Gu Qing Shan leaped up from below him and flew towards him.
"How strange. Did he just disappear in an instant?" The young man was not worried at all about the incoming opponent. He only cared about murmuring.
"But what can we do?" His body moved to meet Gu Qing Shan.
The two of them rapidly approached each other.
Gu Qing Shan pointed her sword forward, activating her Secret Art [Water Flow Severance].
Looking at the sword aura on the sword, the young man had a bad feeling. He suddenly accelerated, turned into a twisted blood-red light, and circled to the back of Gu Qing Shan.
"It's over," he said.
At some point, his fingers had become as long as a sharp knife.
The young man grabbed Gu Qing Shan's back with both hands.
Gu Qing Shan withdrew her sword and slashed behind her.
The sword aura on the sword dissipated, replaced by a layer of irregular lightning.
This strike was so precise that it didn't seem like a sudden change of attack.
From drawing, to sheathing, and then attacking again, the entire process was as natural as flowing water.
The hand blade clashed with the sword.
[Uncontrollable] activated!
"Ah!"
The young man screamed in pain, his arms abruptly bent backwards.
A chance!
Gu Qing Shan followed up with another strike.
The young man couldn't control his body, but he borrowed the momentum of leaning backwards to dodge the strike.
Gu Qing Shan took advantage of the situation and attacked again.
Boundless sword phantoms drifted around the blade — — [Crescent Slash]!
Gu Qing Shan's entire body turned into a white crescent sword phantom that flashed through the air.
The young man was cut in half, then blown away by the sharp wind generated by the sword.
Gu Qing Shan landed.
The entire exchange only took a few seconds.
In just a few seconds, the two of them had exchanged offense and defense several times, but the victor was already decided.
The group of soldiers and Professionists were stunned. No one could've thought that the battle would be over in just a few breaths' worth of time.
But Gu Qing Shan didn't relax at all.
He looked up with a solemn expression towards the sky.
The two halves of the corpse turned into a blood glow and fused back together.
The young man appeared in front of everyone without a scratch.
"So a human's skill can be this strong"
He crossed his arms, tilted his head and sighed.
"But like I said, in front of absolute power, no matter how skilled you are, it's useless" he smirked and looked at Gu Qing Shan.
"You're right" Gu Qing Shan put her sword in the air and took out a bow.
The Night Rain.
He took out an arrow and put it on the bowstring.
The young man was surprised.
He was staring at the bow, but couldn't sense it at all.
This caused him to be slightly surprised and bewildered.
Gu Qing Shan didn't care about what he was thinking and shot.
Rapid Fire!
Riding Wind!
Shifting Flurry!
Shifting Flurry!
Shifting Flurry!
There were 10 arrows in a row. Gu Qing Shan used Shifting Flurry three times in a row to cut off all of the young man's escape routes.
"Oh my god!" someone shouted from the crowd.
No matter how strong a swordsmanship is, it's still within the realm of human comprehension, but such eerie archery is something no one has ever heard of before.
The young man tried to run left and right, but was continuously hit by arrows. He couldn't help but temporarily land and hide behind the statue.
"What you're doing is useless," the young man shouted in disdain.
Layers of bloody light flowed from his body, the arrows stuck in his body seemed to have melted and slowly disappeared.
"It's useless" at the same time, Gu Qing Shan sighed and said.
The difference between their cultivation is too great, he's only using his skill to temporarily hold on.
Gu Qing Shan tapped her Inventory Bag, took out a pill and swallowed it.
Her spirit energy is quickly decreasing, the number of times she can attack is decreasing, so she needs to replenish it with pills.
A second later, the bloody figure suddenly leapt forward, heading straight for Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan raised her bow and shot again!
Great Shot!
Bombardment!
The young man was sent flying, but he didn't care at all, slowly turned around in mid-air and rushed down again.
Gu Qing Shan's bow moved, Shifting Flurry!
The grey figures in the sky drew irregular arcs of arrows, like flying snakes, chasing after the Man Killer Fiend.
"Ahahaha, it's useless, your arrows can't kill me!"
I know very well how powerful the enemy's arrows are, so this time, even if I have to take some damage, I have to kill him!
The young man turned into a bloody figure, his speed explosively increased.
The bloody figure twisted and went past the sharp arrows, heading straight for Gu Qing Shan.
His hands turned into a blood-colored blade, preparing to borrow the momentum to cut her in half.
The young man smirked, waiting for that moment to come.
A second later, the bow in his hand disappeared.
The sword was once again in his hand, pointing straight at him.
At this point, there was only a meter between the two of them, the moment of life and death.
The young man's speed was already at its limit, seeing this, he knew it wasn't good — — -oh no, there's no time to dodge!
Gu Qing Shan took that chance and activated her sword seal.
Secret Art, [Water Flow Severance]!
Dong dong dong dong dong!
The sword phantoms condensed into a mass, exploding layer by layer like a cannon, hitting the young man 5 times in a row, leaving behind his tattered body.
Bam.
With a dull thud, the young man fell to the other side of the square, heavily hitting the ground, kicking up a cloud of grey mist.
"Well done!" cried one of the majors.
Everyone else also sighed in relief.
Gu Qing Shan scowled, holding her sword horizontally in front of herself.
"Stand up, this kind of attack won't kill you" he said.
The young man moved a bit, pushed himself off the ground and stood up.
"What a surprise" the young man said, "unfortunately you're not a Man Killer Fiend, otherwise I'd want to take you as my subordinate"
In his eyes, there was admiration and surprise, but even more than that, there was boundless hatred and killing intent.
"You can't pay me" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Hmph, seems like I'll have to spend a bit more effort today to finish this hunt" saying so, the young man walked towards Gu Qing Shan step by step.
But at this time, all the Professionists' Holo-Brains lit up at the same time.
Impartial Goddess' voice came from inside.
[Martial Saint Zhang Zong Yuan will arrive at the battlefield in 1 minute, sir Gu Qing Shan, please hold your position]
The young man's pupils dilated.
He grew up hearing the name of Martial Saint Zhang Zong Yuan, so his hesitation turned into fear.
I can't afford to get hurt again. Although I'm currently the strongest Man Killer Fiend, there are still countless competitors lurking in the shadows.
While he was hesitating, Gu Qing Shan raised her bow again, pulled out an arrow and aimed at him.
"Damn it"
He cursed, turned into a blood light, and quickly left.
Gu Qing Shan waited for a bit longer before slowly lowering the Night Rain.
He finally calmed down a bit.
This battle was extremely dangerous, the other party was too strong, every second felt like he was walking on a tightrope.
"His evolution speed is quite fast, but he's still too immature in battle"
Saying so, he tapped his Inventory Bag, took out a pill and put it in his mouth.
His spirit energy is about to run out, if it weren't for his rich battle experience and not showing any signs of losing, the other party would've already started to retaliate.
This terrifying monster is the same as a Martial Saint, a 4th stage Elementalist, or a deeply awakened God's Chosen, it's not something he can handle right now.
Just like the Man Killer Fiend said, his cultivation is still a bit too weak.
And just like the Man Killer Fiend said, if it weren't for his swordsmanship being so high that the monster couldn't even take him down with its strength.
If it was any other cultivator, they would've already been killed by the monster.
"Is the Martial Saint coming?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Impartial Goddess answered: [It won't be that fast, it'll take another 10 minutes]
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised: "Then say 1 minute"
Impartial Goddess answered: [This is the newest strategy]
Gu Qing Shan commented: "Not bad, you can even lie now"
Impartial Goddess asked: [Is that a compliment?]
Gu Qing Shan answered: [This time it is. Also, tell the Martial Saint that he doesn't need to rush, he can take his time]
Gu Qing Shan walked in front of everyone, asking: "Can you still move?"
They nodded and stared at him as if they were looking at a tyrannosaurus rex in human skin.
"Very good, let's go back quickly, as soon as the Man Killer Fiend leaves, a large number of Man Eater Fiends will come"
As Gu Qing Shan said so, she looked at the red Man Eater Fiend's corpse, then at the exhausted Professionists and soldiers.
"Who still has the strength to carry this thing back with me"
"Me!" everyone who could still move answered at the same time.
Gu Qing Shan looked at them in surprise.
"So many people, alright, carry it"
