The youth's mouth moved slightly, as if he was saying sothing, but because his ears hadn't fully recovered, he couldn't hear clearly.
"...So many tricks, too bad they're useless against ."
Xue Jing looked at the man with the Wei surna, the Shadow Fla quietly burning in his pupils and ears.
As the man pulled out the shock bomb disguised as a lighter, Xue Jing instinctively used the Shadow Fla, turning the surrounding shadows into Dark Fla to block his ears and eyes.
The violent intense light and sound wave, upon invading his eyes and ears, were directly incinerated by the annihilating Dark Fla, leaving nothing behind.
He only felt as if a light breeze had brushed over his body.
"This ability is too useful," Xue Jing couldn't help but marvel.
He stepped on the ground, approaching the man with the Wei surna, about to continue his attack.
"Kid... don't underestimate !"
The man with the Wei surna said in a low voice, and at the sa ti, his left hand suddenly swelled up significantly.
It was not just a simple muscle expansion, but every part of the right hand enlarged to over ten tis its original size in proportion.
It was as if... a giant's arm had been attached to a human body.
"Hoo——"
The fist, several sizes larger than a cauldron, swung toward Xue Jing, bringing with it a fierce wind and montum, stirring the air, clearly indicating trendous power.
But Xue Jing's eyes lit up.
"Interesting..."
He even didn't dodge and stood in place, seemingly ready to take the punch with his body.
The man with the Wei surna had only intended to push him back, but seeing that Xue Jing seed to have no intention of dodging, he imdiately focused and gritted his teeth, causing the swollen arm to grow even larger.
This move was his application of 'Giant's Blood' within his body, still very clumsy to use, and would increase the mutation rate of his body. He hadn't planned to use it unless the situation was urgent.
He hadn't expected this kid to actually plan not to dodge and take it head-on...
Then let you die!
As the fist, much larger than his own body, ca close, Xue Jing felt like he was standing in front of railway tracks, the giant fist like a train engine slamming into him.
"Bang!"
A loud noise erupted as the giant fist connected with his body, blasting out a ring-shaped wave of air.
And Xue Jing actually stood firmly in place, not being directly blown away by the punch.
He activated Twin Lifes Defense, his bones trembling and rumbling like rolling thunder, the imnse force flooding into his body, yet absorbed, gradually supported, and transford by his bones...
Power surged, the Dragon's Chant began.
All the kinetic energy was completely absorbed by his bones. Even with Xue Jing's physical resilience at that mont, his bones still began to wail with strain.
With energy surging throughout his body, wrapping around the kinetic energy in his bones, Xue Jing turned around and threw a backhanded Swing Fist.
Hidden Dragon School — Seal Cloud Tail!
The long-unused Hidden Dragon counterattack skill erupted once again.
In this punch, not only his own strength was included but also all the kinetic energy from the man with the Wei surna's Giant punch.
"Pff—crack—"
Without any resistance, the massive arm before him, starting from the knuckle of the middle finger, was cut open like it had been slashed by a knife.
The slit kept tearing inward, like a piece of paper being ripped apart, from the fist bone to the forearm, the upper arm, the shoulder...
"Aaaaah!!"
Huge amounts of blood and flesh gushed from the gigantic arm, scattering to the ground, as the man with the Wei surna, with his massive left arm and shoulder split in two, howled in agony.
Xue Jing, feeling his bones still trembling slightly, praised the man with the Wei surna, saying:
"Impressive... How did you manage that move, is it a kind of Alien Implant?"
The man with the Wei surna's massive left arm slowly shrunk back to its original size, still split in two from the middle of the knuckle, hanging limply on the ground like two noodles dangling from his body.
He clutched his shoulder, breathing heavily, staring straight at Xue Jing.
This monster...
He actually withstood a Giant's punch with a human body. At this age, it's simply astonishing.
"Alien Implant... sort of. My bone marrow has been implanted with 'Giant's Blood,' which is the blood from one of the strongest races of the 'Land-dwelling Species,' the 'Giant Species.' It allows the body to undergo changes similar to that of a giant."
The man with the Wei surna spoke.
Seeing that he seed willing to cooperate and not making another move, Xue Jing didn't attack again but inquired:
"I'm very curious, what exactly are you two, and what is your purpose on this ship?"
The man with the Wei surna appeared to have conceded, showing no other actions, and honestly answered:
"We are mbers of the 'Titan God Brigade,' a hunter group from the Intersecting Boundaries... Our purpose here is to capture a sea-dwelling creature known as the 'Sea Bee King.'"
Xue Jing was about to ask more when suddenly his body tensed, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
Subconsciously, the imprint of dragon scales appeared all over his body, and he thought about using the Golden Scales Transformation's absolute defense.
"Snap—"
At that mont, a noise ca from the side.
"Jing... I told you, with you on this ship, sothing was bound to happen."
Ning Fengwan, who had appeared behind him at so point, was wearing a beautiful black lace dress and glasses, and spoke with a speechless expression on her face.
She was reaching out with her slender, jade-like palm, grabbing the wrist of Qiao Ying, who also had mysteriously arrived behind him.
"Teacher Wan..."
And...
Her?
Xue Jing looked at the woman in surprise—she was supposed to have been killed by him already.
Her neck had returned to normal, but the red fingerprint marks still remaining there told of what had just occurred.
In her hand, she held a black dagger that was glowing green at the tip, silently vibrating.
"High-frequency weapon?"
"Damn!" The man with the Wei surna cursed as Qiao Ying's sneak attack failed.
This nail that had been planted from the beginning, the one that was supposed to decide the outco, had been disrupted by a girl who had co out of nowhere!
"Bang bang bang bang—"
The man with the Wei surna quickly raised his revolver, firing four shots at Xue Jing and Ning Fengwan.
Xue Jing and Ning Fengwan dodged by moving swiftly to the side.
"Go!"
With a loud shout, the man with the Wei surna took to the air as if flying, and so did Qiao Ying—
It turned out that both of them possessed a flying ability similar to the 'Dragon Wing Device'.
"Teacher Wan, leave the female to you."
Xue Jing looked at Ning Fengwan and spoke softly.
"Don't worry..." Ning Fengwan adjusted her glasses, and through the reflections in the lenses, her narrow, phoenix eyes narrowed as they followed Qiao Ying ascending into the air.
For so reason, even though it was their first encounter, she felt inexplicably irritated at the sight of this woman.
From the tips of her fingers, sharp, silver-white claws sprouted.
—Serpent Slayer Spearhead.
Then, she vanished on the spot, and like a cat, she sped along the walls on all fours, rapidly closing the distance to Qiao Ying; each swipe of her claws punctured ten small holes, making it seem as though she was running on flat ground.
The casino was a bounded space, only three floors high and just over a dozen ters; to her and Xue Jing, it made no difference whether the enemy could fly or not.
Xue Jing took a step and used the stair railings to propel himself directly towards the man with the Wei surna.
After what had just happened, he was no longer in the mood to play around.
The man with the Wei surna, looking to evade in midair, suddenly encountered a pair of serene, silver-white eyes.
They were like the moon in the sky, tranquil and gentle.
Swiftly and silently, moonlight sprinkled onto his eyes, causing the man with the Wei surna to stiffen, immobilized.
Xue Jing extended his right hand, his palm shaped like the blade of a knife.
Black streams of air floated out from the shadows around him, condensing at the 'edge' of his hand blade, coating it with a layer of sharp black mbrane.
Spiral indentations erged from his arm, converging down onto the hand blade, all coming together.
"Swoosh—"
A black spiral thread flashed through the air.
The man with the Wei surna was cleaved in two in midair, bisected at the waist.
The two halves of his body fell to the ground, with organs, intestines, and blood spilling out.
The upper half of the man with the Wei surna had an expression of lost consciousness, but his fingers were still reflexively pulling the trigger.
"Bang—"
The revolver fired its last bullet.
Whether by intention or coincidence, the crimson bullet flew towards the ceiling. The specially made bullet caused an explosion, blasting a large hole in the ceiling.
At that mont, the entire ship suddenly tilted and shook, and an ear-piercing alarm echoed throughout. Panic-stricken voices ca from the speakers scattered about.
"Sea... Sea Bee Swarm, we have a Sea Bee Swarm attacking!"
