Night without Borders

Chapter 142: Unexpected and Surprising Gains

In the dark night, the vast plains are covered with dense forests.

A half-human-high weasel spoke human language and stood in front of them. Its yellow fur was as shiny as silk. It was wearing a lapis lazuli armor and a helmet. With the faint electric light lingering around its body, it looked extraordinary.

"What do you want to do by blocking my way?" Qin Ming asked.

"This young man is ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. He has slaughtered all the young and strong men in Wolf Ridge, and yet he still asks questions even though he already knows the answer." The weasel acted in an air of being a conscientious person.

"What does it have to do with you?" Qin Ming asked coldly.

The tall and thin weasel stood there and said, "As fellow wolves, they all have to call me Uncle Huang. What do you think?"

Qin Ming took a closer look and confirmed that it was a yellow-skinned animal, not a wolf. He said, "If you miss your nephews, then follow them. The whole family will be together."

"My name is Huang Yuan. I don't kill nameless people. Young man, I'll give you a chance to leave your name." The weasel slowly pulled out the black "long knife" from behind.

Compared to it, the pitch-black knife was very long, almost as long as it was tall.

"Why are you, a weasel, pretending to be so powerful in front of me!" Although Qin Ming said this, he did not dare to be careless, because he actually felt that this weasel was quite dangerous!

He drew his sword and stared at the yellow-skinned man in front of him.

"In recent years, I have seen many young faces who are even more radical than you. They are full of passion and have entered this land of divine sorrow, wanting to slay demons and protect the people living on the border."

Huang Yuan's cyan gold armor clanged, and he used his pair of small claws to adjust his helmet to make it more upright. Then his claws glowed, and he held the black knife, pointing it at his opponent.

Qin Ming was stunned. This vast plain full of life was actually called the Land of Gods' Sorrow? It was probably related to the god-like creatures.

Huang Yuan said calmly: "In the end, guess what happened to those passionate young people? They are all dead. Well, I still have some collections. I took a piece of bone from their middle fingers."

It touched a bone string hanging on its chest with the handle of the knife and said, "As the saying goes, the heart is connected to the ten fingers, which is also called the heart bone. I have collected thirty-five heart bones. If you add you, the number of thirty-six Tiangang will be complete."

Qin Ming realized that the yellow-skinned creature wanted to provoke him, but he did feel murderous intent rising in his heart. What it said was true, and those were indeed the finger bones of a young human!
He did not act rashly. Although he was a newborn, he had accumulated some consciousness and wisdom. Now his instincts and intuition were extremely sharp.

Qin Ming realized that there should be two creatures lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to cooperate with the yellow-skinned man to deliver a fatal blow to him.

He couldn't help but sigh that even a weasel understood strategy. On one hand, it tried to provoke him, while on the other hand, it was preparing to cooperate with his helpers in secret to achieve a perfect strangulation.

Huang Yuan smiled faintly and said, "Haha, I feel the most accomplished when I kill passionate young geniuses like you, because it's like extinguishing the passion of your entire race and cutting off your future."

Qin Ming moved, threw away the mother knife of the mother-and-child knife, and directly used the mutton-fat jade iron knife, but he did not infuse the skylight energy into it for the time being, so it was not dazzling now.

The weasel's body was covered with electric light, and it was controlling the strong wind. Holding the hilt of the knife tightly, it seemed as if it was flying with the knife, rising off the ground with the sound of wind and thunder. It was so fast!
Suddenly, Qin Ming stopped, and then rushed to the side and rear at a high speed. A dazzling light burst out from the mutton-fat jade iron knife, and the white blade hummed.

In the dense woodland, there were actually two humans lurking, one male and one female. They were in different positions, cooperating with the yellow fox to form a triangle. They wanted to attack from the side and rear.

Now Qin Ming turned and rushed towards the man, with a domineering wind force flowing through his body, like a passing hurricane, breaking all the branches blocking the road along the way, and many plants and trees exploded.

The bright light of the knife burst out like a thunder in the woods, and he immediately chopped at a man about thirty years old.

There was no doubt that this was an outsider saint. At this moment, his pupils contracted and he shouted, "Brother, don't get me wrong, we are one of you!"

However, the pitch-black spear in his hand stabbed forward mercilessly. As long as the opponent hesitated for a moment, he would have the upper hand and could even kill the opponent with one stab.

Qin Ming chopped down with his sword, and with a clang, the black spear broke into two pieces.

Moreover, he did not pause for even a moment, the mutton-fat jade iron knife in his hand burst into light like a dazzling sun.

"You..." The outsider saint panicked. This turned out to be a jade iron knife. He wanted to dodge, but found that his speed was no match for the other party.

He blocked with his broken spear, but it was like rotten wood in front of the mutton-fat jade iron knife, and it was vulnerable. With a clanging sound, it was cut into about a foot long.

Qin Ming's last slash of the sword cut off the broken spear and also cut off the man's arm, causing blood to splatter everywhere.

As soon as the man screamed, Qin Ming cut his body in half with a knife. His Tianguang power was no match for him and he died on the spot.

Qin Ming turned around suddenly, because the yellow fox was coming at him at an incredibly fast speed. It had lightning and thunder on its body, accompanied by strong winds, and its feet did not touch the ground. It really looked like it was flying like a sword.

clang!
Although Huang Yuan was short, only as tall as an adult man's waist, he was incredibly strong. He clashed with Qin Ming with his swords, causing a sharp metallic collision sound.

There was a serious crack on its black "long sword". It can be imagined that the material of this sword is actually very extraordinary. Even after being cut by the jade iron sword, it did not break into two pieces.

This is the trophy obtained by the yellow-skinned man after killing a human young genius.

"So powerful!" It was quite shocked. How could humans of this age stop it?

It is also an old monster that has evolved for many years. Even many human saints are no match for it, and it has enslaved two of them.

As a result, a newcomer, barely a teenager, was able to battle it head-on!

In an instant, the two men fought with their swords dozens of times, sparks flew everywhere, and finally the yellow-skinned man's black sword broke into pieces, and the tip of the sword fell to the ground.

It panicked and quickly retreated, keeping a distance.

Qin Ming naturally would not let it go. He chased it relentlessly, entangled it and fought with it with a knife.

He was really surprised that this yellow-skinned guy actually mastered a very powerful sword technique and had achieved great attainments, as if he had practiced for decades and had quite the demeanor of a master.

In fact, this weasel is indeed very talented. After practicing swordplay for more than ten years, it has acquired the demeanor of a master. It can be considered a "genius" among its species.

However, the yellow fox was even more shocked, as it was at a disadvantage!
In the Land of God's Death, its bloodline mutated and evolved into strands of strange blood, which was equivalent to several decades of additional cultivation, but in the end it was not as good as a human teenager.

The female outer saint tried several times to step forward to help Huang Yuan, but she couldn't keep up with the speed and retreated.

Qin Ming and the yellow-skinned man fought with swords, showing his profound attainments in swordsmanship. He had already cut open its blue-gold armor, leaving two wounds on its body.

Huang Yuan was angry. He really couldn't stop this young man. He considered himself a master of swordsmanship and was very famous on this plain, but it was becoming increasingly difficult.

With a clang, its black "long sword" broke into two pieces, the armor on its chest was cut open, the scales were shattered, and a deep bloody wound appeared again.

With a whoosh, it suddenly soared into the sky and flew into the night sky!
Earlier, when it was flying on a sword, it actually had a pair of hidden flesh wings, which vibrated slightly at the back, but now they were fully opened and it stood in the air.

"I can't believe that my Master Huang, who is famous for his Wind and Thunder Sword in the Shenshang Plain, would be defeated by a young boy in the end!" Huangpizi was very angry.

Qin Ming had a cold face. He was very dissatisfied with himself. He actually fought with a yellow fox for such a long time. It was a bit outrageous!

He didn't understand the value of this yellow-skinned animal, it was indeed very famous!

Qin Ming ignored it and walked towards the woman with a knife. She spoke quickly: "I was forced to help it. I have been enslaved by it in recent years. Thank you for saving me today."

"I see that you are not confused and can communicate normally, but you just helped the evildoer. Your hands must be stained with the blood of your fellow tribesmen in recent years, right?" Qin Ming asked.

“No, no, I was wrong!” The woman panicked and her face turned pale. Even Master Huang was not his opponent, how could she resist?

Qin Ming attacked without mercy. After several fierce collisions with her, he chopped off the woman's head with a "puff". Blood gushed out and the body fell to the ground.

Huang Yuan in the air is not simple. He has mastered the human's sky light power, but now it is all restrained, and a brilliant light is emitted from his brows.

It didn't stop just now because it was transforming its own power!
"Many people have forgotten how I rose to prominence in the past." As a yellow-skinned creature, it has a racial innate ability, which is that its spiritual realm is exceptionally powerful.

It restrained the power of heavenly light, and a dazzling light of consciousness emanated from its forehead, as if to distort the space, causing the tall treetops on its side to shake violently and then explode.

It swooped down and shouted, "Those who rely on their physical bodies to fight are all inferior creatures!"

Qin Ming really wanted to kill it with one blow. This yellow-skinned creature actually engaged in ethnic discrimination. Did it think it was so ethereal?
When the so-called power of the spiritual realm poured down, the spiritual light turned into a tangible long sword and slashed towards Qin Ming. He simply clenched his fists and blasted upwards.

The light of Qin Ming's integrated fist was extremely dazzling, like a flapping golden crow tearing through the night sky and burning everything. The so-called spiritual light was instantly ignited.

The tangible "spiritual sword" broke, disintegrated, and turned into flames.

Moreover, there were five consecutive slashes that followed, but they were all pierced by Qin Ming's terrifying skylight power, like a three-legged golden crow sweeping through the long night, killing all the ghosts and monsters.

"Ah..." Huang Yuan screamed. He never expected that after converting his strength and using his most powerful consciousness, he would be defeated even more miserably.

Its mouth and nose were full of blood, and it vibrated its flesh wings and flew into the night sky, trying to escape from this place.

Qin Ming bent his bow and drew his arrow, and the arrow he used was a pitch-black jade iron arrow!

His archery skills are known to be superb and are not inferior to his swordsmanship.

Huang Yuan, who had already been severely injured, had no way to dodge. He let out a shrill scream, and a bloody hole was blown out of his body by the light contained in the arrow feathers, and he fell to the ground.

The sunlight that passed through its body tore one of its flesh wings apart!
Qin Ming moved through the woods like an agile cheetah. He came close to it in an instant and stepped on it.

Then his expression changed as he saw it was breathing hard.

Qin Ming slashed at it with the back of his knife, breaking one of its legs, and threatened, "Stop stinking, or I'll chop off your limbs right away!"

He didn't want to get stinky, so he put the jade iron knife against its neck.

"What do you want?" asked the yellow-skinned man in a trembling voice.

Qin Ming said: "I am very interested in your lightning and thunder, as well as your sword technique. Recite them to me."

"Let me go first." Huang Yuan said, wanting to negotiate terms.

With a snap, its arms were broken by Qin Ming's jade iron knife.

"I admit defeat..." Huang Yuan lowered his head and began to recite the problematic scripture.

With a snap, two more bones in its body broke.

Qin Ming said coldly: "You recite it again, and if you make a mistake every time, I will break two of your bones."

Huang Yuan's emotions fluctuated violently. The images presented by his resentment and the scriptures he recalled were all extremely clear.

Qin Ming was sure that he had obtained the complete inheritance. The lightning and thunder light and sword skills he wanted were actually a kind of inheritance - the Wind and Thunder Sword, which needed to be activated by the power of wind and thunder.

This secret book came from a young genius, but unfortunately he was killed more than ten years ago.

At the beginning, the edge of the world was not so chaotic. Huang Yuan secretly took action and killed the passionate young genius.

Moreover, what it said was true. In recent years, it has killed more than thirty human genius masters.

Qin Ming naturally would not let it go. After obtaining this extremely mysterious and extraordinary sword manual, he cut the yellow-skinned beast in half with one stroke.

"You..." It screamed, and although it was full of fear, it did not die for a while.

Purple light emanated from its heart area, flowing towards the wound, and a sweet fragrance wafted out.

"This is..." Qin Ming was surprised.

He beheaded the yellow fox, leaving it no chance to live.

Not long after, he found a purple heart in his body, carrying some special blood.

“Could this be the special species mentioned in the Fate Changing Sutra, which has evolved “strange blood” that can prolong life and improve talents? How could this yellow-skinned creature be so amazing?!”

Qin Ming was stunned. It was just a weasel, but it actually gave birth to "strange blood"!
Since it can be recorded in the "Destiny Changing Sutra", it is certainly not an ordinary thing.

Qin Ming examined it carefully, feeling both happy and regretful. The amount of "strange blood" was not much and this yellow fox was still in the growth stage. If it could accumulate for another dozens or hundreds of years and its entire body turned into strange blood, it would be truly priceless.

He estimated that according to the records in the Fate-Changing Sutra, this blood could extend his life by ten years and also strengthen his foundation!
This is more precious than spiritual substances that can help people be reborn.

Because, this is increasing potential, and spiritual matter is helping to manifest potential.

Qin Ming used the methods recorded in the Fate-Changing Sutra to burst out the light of heaven and refine the strange blood, causing it to evaporate into wisps of purple mist, which was the "miracle medicine" contained in the purple blood.

For a moment, the place was filled with purple mist and the aroma of medicine filled his nose, drowning him.

After purifying with the light of the sky dozens of times, Qin Ming inhaled the steaming purple cloud into his body. He immediately felt his whole body become light and his blood and flesh activity increased.

"Is the effect so obvious?" He was surprised. He could already feel that the miraculous medicine could prolong life and change his flesh, blood and bones.

This "strange blood" shocked him!
Qin Ming experienced it carefully and felt that his foundation was indeed stronger, but he didn't know how much it had improved.

On his way back, he had already been practicing the methods in the secret book. The wind and thunder force not only had extremely strong attack power, but could also greatly increase speed!

The value of this sword manual far exceeded his earlier expectations. Qin Ming guessed that this must be the unique skills of a certain great sect.

He kept swinging his sword, and gradually the sound of wind and thunder was heard, and the lightning that he was thinking about was looming!

Qin Ming didn't want to leave. The Land of God's Sorrow was full of opportunities. He wanted to meet a few more "Master Huangs". This time's gains made him extremely satisfied.
