What a pity.
This rage is aningless.
No evidence was left, and Light City still doesn’t know who did it!
However, Gu Shen has a vague intuition that Jia Wei will target him again. That Great Knight’s sense of "enemy locking" is extrely sharp.
The previous clash at the small yard of Xuankong Mountain on the North Continent is still fresh in Gu Shen’s mind.
"I need to be careful... can’t et Jia Wei alone."
That’s also why he quickly left the W4 district.
The battle between Vermilion Bird and Jia Wei before... Gu Shen watched the entire fight "closely."
The killing power displayed by the Fourth-order Transcender was terrifying!
Even if he successfully broke through and beca Deep Sea Ninth Layer, he would still be suppressed!
"What a sha, the hidden fourth-order in Light City seed a bit weak..."
Gu Shen felt so regret.
He originally thought that this confrontation with Shadow could help him break through the bottleneck of the eighth layer.
But unexpectedly.
This battle did not bring any breakthrough.
Shadow was violently beaten by Vermilion Bird, with a comprehensive decline in vitality... setting aside all this, even in a peak state, Shadow would struggle to exert any combat power if Gu Shen ca to confront him.
Shadow is an assassin, always hidden in darkness, initiating the attack.
Once the assassin loses the initiative, he ceases to be a threat.
"However... it’s not entirely fruitless."
Gu Shen raises his palm.
In the palm of his hand, there are two daggers, one long and one short.
Both daggers originate from Qiaxike Town, the legendary forging town on the Northern Continent Border; the Raging Red war of that year caused Qiaxike Town to be lost in the river of history...
Now, there are not many Extraordinary knives left from this legendary town.
"Rend, Break Source."
Gu Shen squints his eyes, weighing the two short daggers.
The quality of these two daggers is very good, and if evaluated, they could even be considered "A-grade," but when horizontally compared, they are slightly falling behind among the sa A-grade sealed artifacts.
But for an "assassin," two such daggers might as well be Divine Artifacts!
Break Source can cut off the flow between Extraordinary Essences.
Rend can shred the connection between materials!
When combined, there is nothing in this world that cannot be destroyed in assassination!
"These two daggers are suitable for close-range assassination."
Gu Shen murmurs to himself: "To them, I am a more suitable master than Shadow."
The concealnt of Netherworld Fire is stronger than that of Shadow!
Unfortunately, after leaving the W4 district, Gu Shen lost track of Vermilion Bird, otherwise, he was actually quite interested in eting the Source Tower Divine Envoy again, especially since the latter was just heavily beaten by Jia Wei.
Beating soone when they are down, that is sothing Gu Shen loves to do and is best at.
"It’s ti to go back..."
Gu Shen turns his hand over, putting away the daggers.
"The first hunt in South Cave should be ending soon?"
...
...
"Ha!"
A childish shout explodes in the primitive forest.
Hundred Explosion Finger Tiger shatters the air, sending a circle of dust into the air!
In black clothes, Gu Xiaoman knocks down a giant ape.
With the fall of the giant ape, the forest raises a cloud of dust, eventually returning to calm, leaving only Xiaoman’s shouting echoing between the trees.
The place looks empty and silent.
But in reality... just a hundred ters behind Gu Xiaoman, a white-clothed figure silently follows.
Bai Xiu quietly stands atop the towering ancient tree, concealing his presence, saying nothing.
This external hunt is Gu Xiaoman’s first Transcendent battle in life.
Without encountering a life-and-death crisis.
Bai Xiu won’t make a move.
In half a day, Gu Xiaoman has already killed seven Extraordinary Creatures. These big creatures are not weak, about the sa level as Deep Sea Third Layer. These are "chosen" by Bai Xiu, the best opponents for an Initial Stage Transcendent.
Extraordinary Creatures retain their ferocity, but aren’t too strong!
Gu Xiaoman’s performance did not disappoint him.
True to being the future "Lord of Wine," Xiaoman is absolutely a genius in combat. In her first Transcendent confrontation, she needed an endurance strategy, relying on her tenacious stamina to gradually exhaust the black bear’s energy to win.
Afterwards, she beca more and more adept.
While fighting this giant ape, she had already mastered the crucial techniques in close combat.
Withdrawing and attacking!
With each clash, she controls her strength, avoiding the giant ape’s sharpness when it aggressively displays its ferocity, and exerting full strength when it’s insufficiently prepared. Thus, maintaining the original "endurance" strategy, only the battle process is greatly shortened.
After about forty minutes, the giant ape couldn’t endure and was worn down, knocked down by her!
Gu Xiaoman crouches down, waving to disperse the dust, pulling out a small knife she carries, muttering: "Bloodletting... tendon-cutting..."
She holds the knife, gesturing in the air.
"We’ll handle the rest."
A familiar voice cos from behind Xiaoman.
Shen Li, Zhuang Su, and Adam, walk in from the depths of the forest.
Thanks to Gu Shen’s negotiation with Yuan Shuo City, this external hunt is pushed forward by followers of the Storm Church. The Neutral and Eastern Continent Transcendent’s main force only needs to gradually follow.
As for the three of them, they have maintained contact throughout.
Shen Li is responsible for protecting Adam.
Zhuang Su follows Adam, collecting experintal data... The so-called "bloodletting" and "tendon-cutting" are actually preliminary steps in collecting information on the gigantified creatures’ transcendence.
These operations are quite bloody, not suitable for children.
