Instructing her daughter to practice throwing knives, the police were frightened and asked to file

Only by eliminating this man can they gain true safety and survive this life-and-death struggle.

This is the cry of their hearts and their truest thoughts.

The sound of gunfire intertwined into a network, dense and chaotic, and even brought a sense of illusion and unreality to everyone present.

The smell of gunpowder, gunpowder, and blood filled the entire space, constantly assaulting the sense of smell of everyone present.

Then, where they concentrated their firepower, several blood mists instantly erupted, obscuring their vision and making it impossible for them to see the true battle situation.

They could only vaguely see a figure struggling and twisting in the blood mist. Although bullets were raining down from all directions, the figure stood firm and maintained a strange posture.

But that's it.

call.

A breeze suddenly blew by.

Richard shuddered and subconsciously stopped pulling the trigger.

The other mercenaries also released their guns, looking around with confusion, solemnity or fear on their faces.

At that moment, they all felt the strangeness of the wind, as well as the bone-deep chill and fear contained in the wind.

They seemed to be facing an invincible, insurmountable terrifying existence.

And this wind seemed to be announcing the arrival of death to them.

In this brief moment, less than a second.

call out.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed from an unknown source.

The cold light was so fast, like an invisible gas. In an instant, it approached the neck of a mercenary and flashed past.

next second.

The mercenary still maintained his previous expression, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He looked at everyone hesitantly, and then tried to twist his stiff neck to see his teammates. However, his vision was spinning.

Finally, he saw the dense forest, the sky blocked by branches, and the astonished and frightened eyes of his teammates.

And... the head that he had just lost, the neck was empty and the blood was still gushing out.

……

Bang bang bang!
Da da da!
Faint but clear gunshots were heard from the outskirts of the dense forest.

The sudden sound of gunfire made all the special forces soldiers feel nervous and their nerves tensed.

"Old Chen, did you hear the gunshot?"

The voice of his teammates immediately came from Chen Wu’s Bluetooth headset.

Chen Wu narrowed his eyes and raised his hand without hesitation, signaling the team members behind him to move in the direction where the gunshots came from.

At the same time, he pressed the Bluetooth headset communication device and said seriously: "We are already heading in the direction of the gunshots. The gunshots are likely coming from the group of mercenaries. They may have encountered some unexpected situation."

At this point, he couldn't be sure what had happened to the mercenaries that led them to open fire.

In theory, the last thing they should avoid is shooting.

After all, firing a gun means exposing your position.

But if you encounter a situation that endangers your life, it is understandable to open fire.

However, in this deep mountain forest, what kind of things or people could threaten the lives of a group of mercenaries?

Even if they encounter a tiger or an elephant, the mercenaries may not easily open fire.

Thinking of this, Chen Wu felt even heavier in the heart and his expression became unpredictable.

……

call.

The autumn wind was blowing gently, bringing a chill to the air. In the dark and gloomy forest, an atmosphere of solemnity and murder gradually thickened, making it almost hard for everyone to breathe.

A group of mercenaries stood still, guns clenched, staring in horror at their fallen companions.

There was obvious confusion in their eyes, as well as fear as if they had seen something incredible.

They were sure that they had not seen any human figure or any trace of the sword just now.

It was as if an invisible force, perhaps air flow, or perhaps some indescribable existence, suddenly rushed towards the mercenary.

Then, he died...

As they watched, lives faded.

This is a phenomenon they cannot understand.

After all, it was not a gun, nor was it some novel weapon, nor was it a physical, visible object.

That...seems to be just a stream of air!
It's very likely...it's really just a current of air.

Killing people with airflow?
This was completely beyond their understanding and overturned their common sense as human beings.

Air currents...how can they kill people?!
Richard held the pistol tightly, his throat dry. He glanced at the corpse on the ground with fear, then quickly looked around, looking for the person who might pose a fatal threat to them.

The same is true for other mercenaries.

To them, Qin Tian is a huge threat, and only by eliminating Qin Tian can they survive.

If it were before, they would be full of confidence.

Twelve well-armed mercenaries versus one man, this should have been an easy victory.

however.

The development of the situation was beyond everyone's expectations and completely changed the situation.

Qin Tian first chopped off a mercenary's head with a knife at astonishing speed, and then hid in the dark.

Afterwards, he quickly struck out and took the life of another mercenary.

And now, he even displayed a ghostly attack method, as if controlling the air flow.

Is this really something humans can do?
This question arose in the minds of all mercenaries.

This is really beyond their understanding.

But that's it.

A thin layer of mist suddenly filled the dense forest.

In the mist, Qin Tian stood with his eyes closed, holding a knife in one hand and the other hand behind his back.

His face was expressionless, not a muscle in his face moved, not even his brows were furrowed.

He just stood there quietly, slowly sheathing his sword, as if he was sensing all the changes around him - breath, airflow, footsteps, emotions... all the subtle changes.

Everything seemed to be under his control, and everything seemed to be unfolding in the palm of his hand.

Then, he gently raised the hand holding the knife and turned his neck slightly, as if looking for his next target.

Then, he held the Demon-Breaking Sword and swung it forward gently.

In an instant.

The surrounding fog seemed to be affected by some force, condensing instantly and then quickly spreading, as if it was compressed to the extreme and then suddenly exploded.

However, there was not much unusual about the seemingly ordinary Demon-Breaking Sword.

There was no spectacular sight of being surrounded by air currents, nor was there the same kind of power that was carried by the air currents before.

Everything seemed ordinary and bland, and no one would think that this move could have any power.

It looked like even a three-year-old child holding a sword could easily catch it because the blade looked so gentle.

however.

Qin Tian's body was undergoing earth-shaking changes.

His body seemed to have turned into a sculpture. There was no mysterious power emerging, no power condensing. Everything seemed to have disappeared, even the organs in his body and his sense of existence seemed to have ceased to exist.

He closed his eyes, as if he couldn't feel the existence of his own body.

Qin Tian only felt as if he had... turned into a sword, a sword that was unique between heaven and earth, surpassing all other swords in the world, and truly worthy of the title of the God of Swords.

All thoughts originated from the knife itself. At this moment he could clearly sense the will of the knife.

The complete stillness and tranquility of his body and mind made him feel the wonderful changes of all this.

Just a moment ago, Qin Tian finally realized how to break through the barrier of the second level.

Pursuing inner peace and achieving harmonious unity of body and mind is undoubtedly the right direction.

However, his previous method was to seek tranquility in silence and force his body and mind to calm down. This approach was not very effective and the feedback was minimal.

But just now, Qin Tian was surprised to find that true peace is not to be sought in tranquility, but to maintain inner peace in fierce battle.

Only by maintaining inner peace in the chaos of battle can one find the secret to mastering sword energy amidst the flash of swords and shadows.

To be honest, Qin Tian couldn't be sure whether the attack just now was really sword energy.

When he swung the knife, he only felt an invisible but powerful, profound, and all-destructive force emanating from the blade and rushing straight towards the mercenary with the airflow.

Then he saw a bloody mark on the mercenary's neck.

Then the body fell to the ground and life disappeared.

Is that a sword energy? Maybe.

Isn't that sword energy? Maybe.

However, Qin Tian did not dwell on these.

What he really cares about is his current state, this unprecedented and unique state.

Practicing with the sword, he felt at this moment like a sword, the sharpest sword in the world!

The Demon-Breaking Sword in his hand is just a tool to transmit the sword force, sword energy and other attacks released by his sharp blade.

He didn't bother to figure out whether it was sword energy, nor did he consider whether he had broken through to the second level.

Qin Tian gently waved the Demon-Breaking Sword in his hand without opening his eyes. He was looming in the light mist, with light steps.

Bang bang bang! Da da da!
Gunshots suddenly rang out all around, and several bullets came with the power to break through the air and the breath of death.

Relying on his keen senses, Qin Tian's steps were flexible and varied, sometimes swinging his sword to block, sometimes dodging and moving.

Countless bullets passed by him but failed to hurt him at all.

He held the Demon-Breaking Sword in one hand and the other hand was still behind his back.

It seemed as if the time had come, the knife deep in his heart was reminding him that it was time to show the unique knife intent, knife momentum and the only knife energy in the world to the outside world through the medium in his hand!

Qin Tian slowly opened his eyes expressionlessly and glanced at the position of the mercenaries who were shooting.

Then he quickly raised the Demon-Breaking Sword in his hand and rushed towards a mercenary.

When he was about to approach the target, he gently swung the knife in his hand, and a cold light flashed.

The mercenary suddenly felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet to his heart, his body trembled uncontrollably, and he didn't even have the strength to pull the trigger.

Then a sharp pain came over him and his vision gradually blurred until he lost consciousness.

Qin Tian did not stop his pace.

All he wanted now was to swing his sword and kill all the enemies in front of him.

At this time, the mercenaries led by Richard were all stunned when they saw Qin Tian appear.

Then they quickly pulled the trigger countless times, and bullets poured towards Qin Tian.

However, Qin Tian completely ignored the flying bullets. He kept waving the Demon-Breaking Sword in his hand, blocking one bullet after another.

At the same time, he did not stop his steps and kept waving the knife in his hand, and streams of air like knife energy rushed straight towards the enemy.

In an instant, a wound would turn into a new corpse.

The sound of gunfire gradually weakened, but the cold light continued to flash, and the atmosphere became more solemn and weird.

Richard's legs were shaking and the rifle in his hand had fallen to the ground.

His eyes were full of horror as he watched Qin Tian wave his hand and knock the last mercenary to the ground.

How can this be?

Richard collapsed on the ground, his eyes wide open, his breathing rapid, his heart filled with astonishment and shock.

He couldn't accept the fact that this young man killed so many mercenaries with just a knife!
This is just like the sword energy in ancient Kyushu martial arts novels!
How is this possible!
Before he could react, Qin Tian had already arrived in front of him, with the Demon-Breaking Sword pointing directly at his neck.

Those cold eyes were devoid of any emotion, giving people a machine-like cold feeling.

Under Richard's gaze, Qin Tian gently raised the Demon-Breaking Knife in his hand.

Richard stared at the knife that carried the aura of destruction. He forgot to dodge and had no intention of dodging.

He watched helplessly as the demon-destroying sword with a terrifying aura hovered gently above his head.

However, he did not feel any pain or crisis.

At that moment, the horrifying aura suddenly disappeared.

Then Qin Tian retracted the Demon-Breaking Sword and silently took a few steps back.

Richard was stunned and was about to grab the gun next to him to fight back.

But suddenly he found that his body seemed to be out of control.

His arm fell to the ground, his fingers mechanically pulling the trigger.

There was a huge wound on his chest, which was spewing blood and internal organs.

His eyes also separated, each looking at his own miserable condition.

Richard didn't even have time to spit out blood. He just sat there, staring at Qin Tian with his two wide eyes, unable to say a word.

Until both eyes lost their luster and became dull, and even this last sign of life disappeared.

All fell into silence.

At this time, Qin Tian let out a long breath and a smile appeared on his face.

He finally broke through the second level of sword.

……

rustling.

In the jungle deep in Yunhai City, a group of people were walking hurriedly. Although their steps were fast, they were orderly and not at all panicked.

popping.

Faint gunshots were still heard intermittently, but judging from the rhythm of the gunshots, the number of people in the firefight seemed to be decreasing rapidly, just like after a great war, there were only a few soldiers left on the battlefield.

However, this situation does not seem logical.

After all, intelligence showed that the mercenaries were hiding in this dense forest, and no other forces were involved here. It was impossible for them to be the special forces led by Chen Wu. They also heard the gunshots and were quickly approaching the source of the gunshots. (End of this chapter)
