Chapter 35: One Slash

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The night was dark and the moon was cold.

Under the thick night sky, the blank-faced Di Jin finished his cultivation that day and opened his eyes. Under his blank face, there was a hidden sharpness. He reached into his arms. He took out a purple-black skull from his pocket and held it tightly. His voice was low. “I’m going to take action at noon tomorrow. You can arrange the rest.”

“Understood.” A blurry voice came from the skull’s mouth.

Di Jin’s fingers lightly tapped on the table as he recalled the information he had obtained over the past few days.

“Cen Qingci’s cultivation is at the seventh stage of the Martial Entry-Level, and her combat strength is extraordinary. She can fight against someone at the eighth stage of the Martial Entry-Level, and it’s suspected that she has a treasure that can increase her combat strength.

“It’s said that if she uses her treasure, she can kill her way to Level Eight Martial Realm! However, this woman’s vigilance is poor and she doesn’t have much vigilance. As long as I take advantage of her unpreparedness, I’m 80% confident that I can kill her in one go! I definitely won’t give her a chance to use the treasure.”

Di Jin analyzed in his heart.

The reason why he chose the time was at noon, not at night was due to the consideration that night was the strongest period for night patrollers. Naturally, he could not attack when the other party was at her strongest.

After these few days of observation, Di Jin was not worried that he would not be able to kill Cen Qingci.

As a bounty hunter, although he was only the weakest bounty hunter at the bottom, this was not the first time he had killed such a rising genius.

He knew very well that although these newly-emerged geniuses had extraordinary talent, a lot of room for growth, and battle prowess that exceeded their cultivation realms, pride was a common problem for them.

Even if they knew about the existence of bounty hunters, they would not take these bounty hunters seriously.

Although Cen Qingci was not such a proud genius, she had clearly not suffered any setbacks and her vigilance was too poor. This was especially so in the Golden Cloud City. She was completely unguarded and treated this place as her own home. She felt that she would definitely be safe here.

Such a genius was undoubtedly the easiest to kill.

Now, in Di Jin’s eyes, Cen Qingci was basically a dead person. At the same time, he had already told the spy in Golden Cloud City about the timing of his attack. The other party would make arrangements to help him escape Golden Cloud City.

Di Jin silently planned tomorrow’s operation in his mind.

Although the target this time was easy to kill, he did not underestimate it. After all, they were hunting in Gold Cloud City. There was still some danger.

Just as Di Jin was devoting himself to planning, he felt the Qi and blood in his body fluctuate. “Hmm?” He could not help but feel puzzled.

The reason why bounty hunters like them had powerful disguise abilities was mainly because of a special cultivation technique they cultivated.

This cultivation technique could make their qi and blood stay in a motionless state, making them look like ordinary people. One could not determine their true cultivation through their qi and blood fluctuations.

Logically speaking, his Qi and blood should be in this motionless state.

Why would there be a sudden fluctuation?

Not only that, Di Jin could also feel the fluctuation of his blood and qi becoming stronger and stronger. In just a few seconds, it was as if the calm water had turned into turbulent waves. As a result, his cultivation of Martial Entry-Level Eight was completely unleashed, and he could no longer hide it.

Everything happened too quickly. Before Di Jin could react, the blood in his body was already boiling. Then, there was a bang.

His blood and Qi exploded!

His body exploded into a bloody mist. This explosion caused by his blood and Qi caused his skin to split open on the spot, and blood flowed from his entire body.

Under the moonlight, on the roof of the inn where Di Jin lived. A black figure silently lurked here. The moment he detonated the mark, his entire body immediately fell. He broke through the roof and jumped down.

Xiao Shi held a long saber in his hand. This was the spoils of war he obtained after killing the chief of Gale Stockade. It was a Martial Entry-Level weapon that happened to replace the Black Gold Sword.

The moment he jumped down from the roof, he raised the long saber in his hand and used the force of the fall to slash at Di Jin.

The Heavenly Cycle of the Night Tiger in his body allowed his slash to be greatly enhanced in the dark night. It slashed out a force that was far more ferocious and powerful than during the day, tearing the air and producing a sharp explosion.

Killing intent surged in Xiao Shi’s eyes.

In his plan this time, he was only prepared to slash once. This is his strongest attack! On the way down, Xiao Shi roared in his heart again. “Activate!”

He activated the mark on the saber. This was the mark he had condensed with half a black ink stone before he attacked.

As the mark was activated, the shocking weight of the black ink stone was immediately added to the saber, causing the entire saber to become extremely heavy. The sudden increase in weight caused the blade to fall at an astonishing speed.

Xiao Shi even felt that his entire body was being dragged down by this astonishing weight.

From the moment Xiao Shi detonated the mark to the moment he broke through the roof and unleashed his strongest strike, it was only a matter of seconds.

It was so fast that Di Jin had no time to react. However, as a bounty hunter, he could still react instinctively in such a crisis. He stretched out his hands at the same time and slapped the long saber that was falling down. He tried to use his palms to clamp the long saber and block it.

However, the moment he touched the long saber, an indescribably terrifying gravity suddenly erupted from the saber.

There was a crack.

Both his arms were broken at the same time. His legs were also trembling. He could not stand steadily and knelt on the ground.

“This... what!!” Di Jin’s face contorted in shock.

As his arms broke, his palm could no longer hold the long saber. The blade light flashed down from the top of his head, swept past his body, and slashed the tiles under him, leaving a straight and huge crack that spread from his body to his back.

Fear, shock, panic, stun, and other emotions remained on Di Jin’s face forever. A line of blood appeared on his forehead. This line of blood instantly spread to his chin, then across his chest, and all the way down.

Plop.

Blood spurted out, and his entire body split into two with the blood line as the center.

Xiao Shi’s left hand grabbed the ground as fast as lightning. As fast as he could, he picked up the items that Di Jin had dropped after his death and threw them into his storage bag along with the extremely heavy saber in his hand.

Then, he used Arc Flash and shattered the wall of the room. He rushed out of the inn and ran along the path outside the inn. As he ran, he quickly took off his clothes and threw them into his storage bag before changing into the night patroller’s clothes.

After doing all of this, his figure suddenly paused. He turned around and rushed back in the direction he came from. It was as if a patrolling night patroller had heard the commotion in the distance and quickly rushed over to check on the situation.
