However, Yashiro's raised hand blade failed to strike down because Levi had already grabbed Yashiro's wrist.

Li Wei laughed and said, "Are you that afraid of me? We've only just met, and you're already trying to run away. Can't you be like Goenitz and fight alongside me properly?"

Without hesitation, Yashiro thrust his knee forward, aiming for Li Wei's groin. However, to Yashiro's horror, Li Wei took the blow head-on without any defense, yet still smiled and appeared completely unharmed.

“A true strong person’s body is stronger than that of an ordinary person, even in the most vulnerable parts,” Li Wei said with a smile.

"You monster!" Yashiro said through gritted teeth.

"To be called a monster by a monster that is not human, I am truly honored," Li Wei laughed.

Li Wei grabbed Yashiro's hand and pulled him towards himself. In the instant Yashiro lost his balance, and with a heavy punch aimed directly at Yashiro's abdomen, the immense force sent Yashiro flying, crashing through the hotel wall and falling to the ground.

Li Wei chased after him and, from his vantage point, delivered a powerful punch to Yashiro, who was still in mid-air. Yashiro landed like a cannonball, creating a large crater in the street.

Chapter 1. The Newcomer of the Orochi Blood

Yashiro spat out blood, feeling his internal organs shaking. In a simple contest of physical strength, he was still superior to Goenitz. However, Goenitz had completely crushed him in the purest form of power. How could anyone not be terrified of such a being?

Li Wei landed lightly, assuming a Wing Chun stance. Qi Yashiro, who had just stood up from the pit, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and felt his internal organs rapidly repairing themselves. He knew that Li Wei was just playing cat and mouse with him and had no real intention of killing him. In fact, Li Wei had no intention of killing him at all.

Yashiro said, "Wing Chun... this isn't your real fighting style. That powerful punch just now was completely different from Wing Chun."

"Oh, you saw right through me. In that case, how about this one?" Li Wei instantly changed his stance, now with his legs slightly bent, adopting a Jeet Kune Do posture, lightly rubbing his nose with his fingers, and revealing a confident smile.

Yashiro's face darkened, and he said, "Are you playing me?"

Yashiro could sense that this was definitely not Li Wei's true fighting style, but it also showed how profound Li Wei's martial arts skills were, and how he could easily master many different styles.

Li Wei said, "You guessed right, but unfortunately, I won't give you any reward."

Yashiro knew that the person in front of him was clearly toying with him. The man named Li Wei from Okinawa was a taboo of the Orochi clan. Because of the failure of the last operation, dozens of clan experts were lost. Li Wei was already a nightmare for the Orochi clan.

While feeling fear, Yashiro was also puzzled as to why Li Wei would appear in Europe at this time. Was it a coincidence? Or had Goenitz's plan been leaked?

Yashiro immediately took off. His speed far exceeded that of ordinary people. At full speed, he was faster than a regular family car and had already covered a great distance in an instant.

He can maintain this speed for half an hour, which is enough to keep him away from most dangers.

Just as Yashiro Nanakase breathed a sigh of relief, a voice that sent chills down his spine rang out.

"Running so fast, where are you trying to go? Our battle is far from over," Li Wei laughed.

In terms of running speed, Yashiro is far from being his match. Yashiro has mastered the power of the earth. As long as his feet are on the ground, he can receive continuous buffs, just like Antaeus, the son of Poseidon in ancient Greek mythology. This is a comprehensive buff.

It is precisely because of this that Yashiro possesses immense power unmatched by any other member of the clan, and his ground movement speed can reach that of a wartime propeller-driven fighter jet.

This ability made him virtually invincible in the past, as he possessed the dual advantages of strength and speed. Whether fighting or retreating, he always maintained the initiative. However, now, a monstrous human completely overwhelmed his advantages.

"How is this possible?!" Yashiro exclaimed in surprise, and he immediately slammed on the brakes, changed direction instantly, and continued to escape in another direction.

"It's useless. When it comes to speed, I won't lose to anyone. Apart from a certain 'Lightning Walker,' no one can be faster than me," Li Wei laughed.

Yashiro looked like he'd seen a ghost, then swung his fist at Li Wei. Fighting at supersonic speed was one of his specialties; using this ability, he feared no one except Goenitz, who had absolute air superiority.

"Give it to me!" Yashiro twisted his body, and his full-force punch tore through the air, creating a momentary vacuum. The speed of this punch had reached Mach 6 or higher. This was his ultimate killing move, "Judgment of Doomsday".

This move is known as the "Volcano Fist" by players of the King of Fighters series, and it is also one of the moves with the highest damage output in the game.

"Muda muda muda!!! Your purity isn't high enough!" Li Wei let out a villainous laugh, stretched out his right hand, and caught Yashiro's "Judgment of Doomsday" head-on.

As if nothing had happened, Li Wei made no effort to absorb the force, relying solely on his physical strength to completely withstand Yashiro's final, deadly attack. Because he absorbed all the impact, the surrounding environment suffered minimal damage. This terrifying blow, aside from shattering the windows of nearby buildings, caused no additional harm...

"Kill me." Yashiro gave up resisting. Faced with a strongman like Li Wei who completely overwhelmed him, he could no longer muster any will to fight back. Continuing to fight would only result in more humiliation, so he might as well die and wait for the next World Awakening.

As long as Orochi is not destroyed, Jeji can be reborn by simply waiting for time to pass, whether he is killed or sealed away. Therefore, he is not afraid of death. For him, it is just a matter of changing his identity in the blink of an eye.

In any case, the personality of the power inheritor will eventually be devoured by him, and he doesn't need to wait long.

Li Wei punched Yashiro to the ground and said, "Kill you? That's too boring. Keeping you alive is more interesting to me. Of course, I'll have to restrict your freedom for now."

Last time, Levi obtained some Serpent blood from Goenitz and actually managed to figure it out. He had figured out the composition of the Serpent blood in Goenitz's body, but because of the lack of reference points, he still needed the Serpent blood from other masters.

Without an awakened power inheritor, there's no research value. While Mature was asleep, Levi took a sample of her blood. An unawakened Jeji power inheritor's blood is no different from an ordinary person's.

Li Wei has cultivated Goenitz's serpent blood using cultivation techniques and now has a reserve of two liters. This blood is a good auxiliary material for refining weapons. Adding serpent blood during the refining process can make the finished product of higher quality.

Inside the system, Li Wei also found the option to exchange for Orochi's Blood. The price was a bit expensive, so since he could obtain the sample himself, there was no need to spend his precious points.

In Li Wei's view, Jeji did not unleash the full power of the Great Serpent within him; he simply used it crudely without understanding its true nature. This power would be more useful in Li Wei's hands.

Not only can it be used as a material for refining weapons, but it can also be used to refine pills or directly make tonics. This stuff is much more nourishing than donkey-hide gelatin or ginseng, but ordinary people are very weak and may even explode from the effects of such tonics.

Chapter. Goenitz is defeated

Li Wei knocked Yashiro unconscious with a punch and then sealed him away with layers of magic. The sealed Yashiro completely lost his sense of the outside world and fell into nothingness.

Mentioning Yashiro, who was now as listless as a salted fish, Li Wei directly threw him into his sea of ​​consciousness and began a series of inhumane experiments on him in the laboratory on the floating island.

Li Wei was using Yashiro to extract Orochi's blood. In the laboratory on the floating island, Yashiro was turned into a living blood-producing machine by Li Wei, who continuously fed him nutrients and then converted them into Orochi's blood. In just half a day, Li Wei obtained a liter of fresh Orochi's blood in this way.

Because of the nutrients infused by the cultivation method, Yashiro's body did not experience any negative effects. When Li Wei threw him out of the sea of ​​consciousness, he was just as he was before entering the sea of ​​consciousness.

Yashiro still had some value, so killing him at this point would be the least profitable option. Li Wei chained up the still unconscious Yashiro and took him back to the base that Krauser's clone had prepared for him.

Levi did not intend to let Goenitz come into contact with Shermie or Weiss, after all, it would not be in line with his plan. Compared to facing more unstable factors, Levi preferred the plan he had previously formulated.

The method is quite old-fashioned, still the very traditional hero saves the damsel in distress. Don't underestimate this old trick; for thousands of years, this approach has led to many happy marriages.

As the saying goes, if the conditions are right, go for it; if not, create them. Vis is currently in crisis, and Levi only needs to appear at the right time. As for Shermie, Levi has also arranged a suitable "plot" through the Krauser puppet, enough to create an opportunity for him to play the hero and save the damsel in distress.

They kept track of Goenitz's location, and around midnight, Goenitz landed at the nearest airport and then headed towards them.

By reading Yashiro's memories, Levi already knew that Goenitz's target for this operation was Shermie, and that Shermie's existence was something Yashiro had discovered.

Having learned the other party's purpose, Li Wei understood the situation and intercepted Goenitz outside the small town. Goenitz, possessing short-range travel capabilities, took an unconventional approach, directly approaching from the air.

This method, appearing and disappearing without a trace, can completely bypass the spies planted by the Krauser puppets and abduct people without anyone noticing.

Unfortunately, Goenitz encountered Levi, the Fourth Calamity who had activated a cheat code, so Goenitz suffered another tragedy.

High in the air, Goenitz saw Livy's face, which had left a deep impression on him, and his expression instantly turned extremely ugly.

"Yo, we meet again, Goenitz." Levi said with a smile, carrying the unconscious Yashiro.

Goenitz said, "Yasashiki has fallen into your hands. It seems you know about my plan."

Li Wei laughed and said, "This guy is very stubborn, so I used some tricks and finally got the information I wanted. You came for Sharmi, right? I'm sorry, your plan is going to fall through."

Goenitz said, "I can give up Shermie. Tell me what price I need to pay to get Yashiro back."

Goenitz knew things were hopeless and didn't intend to continue antagonizing Levi. If the two sides fell out, he could escape, but what about Yashiro? He couldn't just abandon Yashiro here, after all, he was one of the few high-end combatants in the entire clan, and also a key link in Orochi's revival. He couldn't give up on Yashiro.

Yashiro was the best foundation for Orochi's resurrection, a fact that even Yashiro himself was unaware of. The power that Yashiro gained in this reincarnation was exactly what Orochi's "Earth" needed.

As the will of Earth, Orochi possesses all attributes, but only "Earth" and "Fire" are the most compatible with it. Using the combination of these two attributes as the basis for resurrection will allow Orochi to better restore its original form, so as to complete the cleansing of humanity and restore Earth to its most natural state.

Li Wei laughed and said, "I want the Serpent Clan's secret treasure, the Serpent Eye Jade."

Goenitz's pupils contracted; in his view, what Levi wanted was somewhat outrageous.

"Can we exchange it?" Goenitz asked.

“If you don’t mind Yashiro dying here, I can find another place,” Li Wei said with a smile.

Goenitz gritted his teeth. The Serpent Eye Jewel was one of the secret treasures of the Serpent Clan. The wearer could gain the ability to manipulate space. It was the treasure of the Serpent Clan and also a treasure that the distant land race coveted but could not obtain.

However, compared to Yashiro, the Snake Eye Jewel, being an inanimate object, is far less valuable than the perfect foundation for Orochi's resurrection. If the Snake Eye Jewel could be exchanged for Yashiro, it wouldn't be unacceptable.

Goenitz was somewhat relieved that he hadn't told Yashiro himself about the Perfect Stem. If the secret of the Perfect Stem had been exposed, who knows what kind of outrageous demands Levi would have made.

Li Wei laughed and said, "I know the Serpent Eye Jade is something you always carry with you. Give it to me, and it's a transaction between you and me."

Goenitz gritted his teeth and said, "Can you guarantee you'll keep your promise?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "No, but you have no choice. Even if you don't give it to me, I can take it myself."

The Serpent Clan's Serpent Eye Jade is even more valuable than the "divine artifacts" held by the Three Divine Artifact Families, and it is one of the few treasures in this world that can catch his eye.

The Serpent Eye Jade grants ordinary people the ability to manipulate space. If the user is already an extraordinary being, the boost will be even greater. The Serpent Eye Jade is exchanged for 4 points in the system. Li Wei, with the idea of ​​taking advantage of any opportunity, tries to pocket as many good things as possible.

Goenitz gritted his teeth, tore a magatama pendant from his neck, and said, "Give it to Yashiro."

"Give me the stuff," Li Wei said.

Goenitz tossed the magatama pendant in his hand toward Levi, and Levi, without any trickery, threw Yashiro toward Goenitz.

Goenitz caught Yashiro, while Levi obtained the Magatama pendant. Levi sensed the strange spatial power of the Magatama pendant and gained some insight. This magical pendant actually contained knowledge of manipulating space. However, this knowledge was made into something like a touch program. Ordinary people knew what it was but not why it was so, and even extraordinary beings like him could not comprehend its knowledge.

However, Li Wei was different. As an ancient Qi cultivator who pursued great freedom and transcendence, his comprehension ability was unmatched by Goenitz and others.

Goenitz and others could only use the Serpent Eye Jewel to manipulate space, while Levi learned its knowledge and fundamentally learned how to better control space—this was an advantage at its core.

Chapter 1. The Fleeting Trace

In Li Wei's view, the material of the Serpent Eye Jade itself was worthless; for a wealthy man like him, it was too brittle even to use as a table leg. However, the knowledge associated with it was invaluable. The Serpent Eye Jade was worth 4 points, and its high price was due to the knowledge it contained.

Satisfied, Li Wei tossed the Serpent Eye Jade into his sea of ​​consciousness. Looking at Goenitz's slightly disheveled back, he revealed a fox-like smile.

There's still plenty of oil left in the Orochi clan; even with its thin, flowing stream, a significant amount can still be extracted. Moreover, Li Wei clearly understands why Goenitz is unwilling to abandon Yashiro—it's precisely to revive Orochi.

Inside, Yashiro, Chris, and Shermie sacrificed themselves to revive Orochi, and even under extremely inadequate conditions, they still managed to summon Orochi.

If Goenitz hadn't been sealed away before the new year, the four Heavenly Kings of the Jedi Order might have been able to summon Orochi in its full power. At that time, even if the three Sacred Treasures families joined forces, they would still be defeated, and humanity would enter its final countdown.

Unfortunately, even with Li Wei causing trouble, Orochi still can't expect to revive in its full glory.

The revival of Orochi requires extremely complex prerequisites. Even if Yashiro is returned, it will be difficult for Goenitz to revive Orochi in a perfect state. After all, Jessiere is not yet fully assembled. Mature is already by his side and can complete the sealing at any time. Shermie and Weiss occupy two of the spots.
