81: Chapter 81 You believe what she said?

"You are courting death!"

Hearing the words "Lie down," Captain Zhang Yan's already gloomy face instantly twisted, and her beautiful eyes erupted with tangible malice and killing intent.

She waved her hand violently, her voice as sharp as fingernails scraping against glass: "Fire your arrows! Shoot him into a pulp!"

"Click! Click! Click!"

More than a dozen elite guards from the Fifth Squad did not hesitate in the slightest, their fingers forcefully pulling the triggers of their armor-piercing heavy crossbows.

"Hum—!"

A dozen steel crossbow bolts, engraved with armor-piercing runes, instantly tore through the air, emitting a terrifying, scalp-numbing screech.

They transformed into an airtight net of death, crazily enveloping Qin Feng's vital points.

The armor-piercing crossbow bolts were extremely fast; they could easily pierce through the protective Qi of a Mortal Stage 9 cultivator.

Firing simultaneously at such close range, for anyone else, this would be a hopeless situation with almost no chance of survival.

However, facing this lethal trap...

"Swish!"

There was not a trace of panic in Qin Feng's eyes; "Clear Wind Shadow" was instantly pushed to its limit!

The Stage 9 Qi in his Meridians surged wildly. He actually left a realistic afterimage in place, while his real body slid across the ground at a bizarre angle that defied the natural limits of human skeletal structure.

"Puff! Puff! Puff!"

The dozen armor-piercing crossbow bolts ruthlessly pierced through the afterimage, sinking deep into the rocks and soil behind, kicking up a sky full of dust!

"What?!" Captain Zhang Yan's pupils contracted violently.

Before she could react...

"Whoosh— Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

Sliding along the ground, Qin Feng's hands swept across his waist as if performing a magic trick.

The power-generating technique of "Inch Radiance" exploded instantly!

Six pitch-black steel flying knives, infused with powerful Qi, transformed into six death warrants from the Grim Reaper. They broke the sound barrier, surging against the flow from within the dust, and shot out violently!

"Splat! Splat! Splat..."

A series of bone-chilling sounds of flesh being pierced rang out densely.

The six elites of the Fifth Squad standing in the front row didn't even have time to let the cruel smiles on their faces fade before a burst of blinding blood erupted from their throats in unison.

The armor-piercing crossbows in their hands clattered to the ground, and as they clutched their spurting necks with both hands, they fell straight backward.

But this was merely the beginning...

Qin Feng's figure twisted in mid-air like a ghost, his feet stamping heavily against a nearby ancient tree to vault into the air.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Several more flashes of cold light appeared in mid-air, as if they had eyes of their own, accurately and unerringly sinking into the foreheads of the remaining crossbowmen.

In just two short breaths of time.

Beneath the cliff, apart from Captain Zhang Yan and Vice Captain Zhang Hu, the dozen elite subordinates brought along had all turned into cold corpses!

"Thud."

Qin Feng landed steadily from mid-air.

But after landing this time, his body swayed violently, and he dropped heavily onto one knee on the bluestone slab.

"Hoo... Hoo..."

He hung his head, his chest heaving violently as he gasped for breath, his forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

The violent fluctuation of Qi that had previously enveloped his body now became chaotic and weak.

It appeared that killing the Peak Mortal Stage 9 Dark Gold Terror Bear just moments ago, combined with the instantaneous burst of extreme movement techniques to kill over a dozen people, had completely drained the last bit of his reserves.

Seeing his subordinates, who had been like demons, die in an instant, Vice Captain Zhang Hu's face, already swollen like a pig's head, instantly drained of all color.

Extreme fear caused his legs to go weak, and with a "thump," he actually fell straight to his knees, kowtowing frantically toward the kneeling Qin Feng.

"Grandpa Qin, Grandpa Qin, spare me! It was all my sister who forced me to come! It was all that bitch with the petty mind; it has nothing to do with me, it's not my business..."

As Vice Captain Zhang Hu kowtowed, tears and snot streamed down his face, and he was so scared he became incoherent.

"You are the bitch, you useless piece of trash! Get up!"

Watching her brother act like mud that couldn't be plastered onto a wall, Captain Zhang Yan was so angry she nearly bit her silver teeth to pieces.

She kicked Vice Captain Zhang Hu violently, her narrow eyes fixed intently on the erratic-breathing Qin Feng, a cold and smug, cruel smile curling the corner of her lips.

"Vice Captain Zhang Hu, you idiot, open your dog eyes and look clearly!"

Captain Zhang Yan pointed at Qin Feng, her voice filled with the arrogance of one who controls everything, and said coldly: "The flying knives at his waist are all used up. Furthermore, having just killed the Dark Gold Terror Bear and dodged the armor-piercing crossbows, his physical strength has long since reached its limit!"

"He is now just a spent arrow, without even the strength to stand up! Why are you still kneeling? Go, kill him with one slash!"

Hearing his sister's angry rebuke.

Vice Captain Zhang Hu froze for a moment, then looked up and examined him carefully.

Sure enough, Qin Feng was still kneeling on one knee, his body still "trembling" slightly, his hands empty, and even that gaze that had looked down upon the world had dimmed significantly.

"Is... is he really a spent arrow?"

The fear in Vice Captain Zhang Hu's eyes receded instantly like a tide, replaced by an extreme madness—the feeling of having survived a disaster and now borrowing authority to act fierce.

"Damn it, I was almost bluffed by you again!"

Crawling up from the ground, Vice Captain Zhang Hu picked up a thick-backed broadsword that had fallen nearby, the flesh on his face twisting into an ugly shape.

He brandished the blade, stepping toward Qin Feng, even deliberately slowing his pace to enjoy the pleasure of a cat playing with a mouse.

"Qin Feng, aren't you very arrogant? When you slapped me, weren't you very cocky?!"

Vice Captain Zhang Hu walked to within three feet of Qin Feng, raised the broadsword in his hand, and roared down at him: "Right now, you are just a dead dog waiting for me to slaughter you."

"Go to hell!!!"

Accompanied by a roar, the muscles in Vice Captain Zhang Hu's arms bulged, and the thick-backed broadsword, carrying a shrill wind, slashed down fiercely!

If this strike landed, even rock would be split in two.

Captain Zhang Yan stood not far away, arms crossed over her chest, a sense of satisfaction at her successful revenge already flashing in her eyes.

However, at the critical moment when the cold blade was less than half an inch from his head.

Qin Feng, who had been hanging his head and "gasping" for breath, suddenly raised his head!

"Boom—!!!"

"Heavenly Tyrant Body" was forcibly activated. Unparalleled, violent power, like a long-dormant volcano, exploded within Qin Feng's body! Purple-gold Qi and blood surged out through his body, directly forming a terrifying wave of air around him.

He simply raised his right hand, clenched his five fingers into a fist, and slammed it out against the thick-backed broadsword descending upon his head!

"Bang!!!"

A deafening metallic explosion rang out beneath the cliff!

In Vice Captain Zhang Hu's ghost-struck, horrified gaze, the thick-backed broadsword made of hundred-refined steel in his hand actually shattered inch by inch from the blade upon impact with Qin Feng's unadorned, flesh-and-blood body.

Countless sharp steel fragments flew in all directions!

"This is impossible!" Vice Captain Zhang Hu let out a shrill, distorted scream.

But Qin Feng's fist did not weaken in the slightest.

After shattering the broadsword, his arm, like that of a god or demon, carried a terrifying, unstoppable force and slammed fiercely into Vice Captain Zhang Hu's chest.

"Crack—!"

Vice Captain Zhang Hu's sternum instantly caved in, and his entire chest cavity, as if struck by a siege hammer, exploded into a horrifying bloody hole.

His two-hundred-plus-pound body stiffened violently, and blood sprayed wildly from his mouth.

Qin Feng slowly withdrew his fist and straightened his body, watching Vice Captain Zhang Hu, whose life force was rapidly fading.

He raised his hand and casually wiped the blood from his knuckles, his tone flat and without a ripple, saying: "You believe whatever she says? Idiot!"
