I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

Above the wilderness, a dark red streak of light was tearing through the sky at an astonishing speed.

Chi Xiao stepped into the void, and with each step he took, a low, booming sound echoed in the air.

The heavy sword on his back was not drawn, but the sharp sword intent it emitted had already shattered the clouds within a radius of several kilometers.

As the only "Greedy Wolf" in Jiangcheng, Chixiao had long been accustomed to loneliness.

This loneliness stems not only from the generational gap in strength, but also from a growing despair about the world.

He looked up and glanced at the sky shrouded in gloom.

According to top-secret intelligence from within the Tianxuan Division, it wasn't just Jiangcheng.

At this moment, the border defenses of the Dragon Kingdom are in dire need of attention in many places.

A royal-level beast has appeared in the sea, and a demonic ape is slaughtering a city in the far north.

Even in Kyoto and Shanghai, there are constantly being infiltrated by otherworldly demons.

It's fair to say that this world is completely rotten.

On the surface, the Dragon Kingdom is one of the five great powers, but its reserves of high-level martial artists are almost exhausted.

The rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.

Beneath this prosperous world lies devastation; humanity is like a dancer on the edge of a cliff, a single misstep plunging into an abyss.

"Is Jiangcheng also going to fall?"

Chi Xiao muttered to himself, a look of weariness in his eyes.

Qin Zhenshan sent out a distress signal very urgently, saying that he had encountered a beast tide of city-destroying magnitude, and even twenty lord-level beasts had appeared.

Twenty heads.

Even Chixiao would have to be on high alert when facing an attack of this scale.

He originally thought that when he arrived, he would see ruins, the severed limbs and remains of the Po Jun Si warriors, and Qin Zhenshan's face filled with despair.

He had even prepared for the worst—if Jiangcheng couldn't be defended, he would do everything in his power to ensure the evacuation of that group of talented individuals.

As long as the green hills remain.

But just as he approached the center of the northern defense line and his mental energy instinctively spread forward, his brows suddenly furrowed.

"That is..."

Chi Xiao's figure suddenly paused for a second in mid-air.

He sensed an extremely chaotic and terrifying aura surging towards him from ahead.

It's not human fear.

It was a strange beast.

In his perception network, the violent aura representing the alien beast was now like a tsunami, receding madly into the depths of the wilderness.

That sense of orderly rout was like encountering a natural enemy.

"Did Qin Zhenshan use space-based weapons?"

Chi Xiao was puzzled, but his speed increased.

No.

A second-tier city like Jiangcheng simply doesn't have the authority to deploy that level of weaponry.

Could it be that reinforcements from other cities have arrived?

No, there is no sign of any expert of the same level moving within a radius of 500 kilometers.

With this inexplicable emotion, Chixiao stepped across the last two kilometers of buffer zone and landed on the cliff of C3 area.

He originally intended to descend as a savior to intimidate the beasts.

But his first action after landing was not to draw his sword, but to freeze in place.

He witnessed a massacre.

No, to be precise, it was an extremely violent yet aesthetically pleasing hunt.

In the center of the image, a young man in tattered armor is holding down a raging bull with one hand.

That's a fourth-tier lord!

A beast known for its brute force, capable of smashing down a building!

At this moment, it was like a calf waiting to be slaughtered, frantically pawing at the ground, but it couldn't move an inch no matter what it did.

Chi Xiao narrowed his eyes, and his previously nonchalant expression completely disappeared.

He's an expert.

He could clearly see that the ground beneath the young man's feet was cracked in a radial pattern.

That was absolute power suppression.

"Peak of the second tier?"

Chi Xiao finally sensed Shen Tian's blood and qi fluctuations, and a hint of absurdity flashed in his eyes.

He had lived in Jiangcheng for five years and had never heard of any second-tier martial artist who could beat a fourth-tier lord to a pulp.

Followed by.

The young man moved.

Chi Xiao felt a dazzling purple lightning flash before his eyes.

The intensity of the electric light even caused a stinging sensation on his retina.

boom!

The massive head of the Fiery Bull exploded like a rotten watermelon struck by a heavy hammer under the bombardment of purple lightning.

Chi Xiao's heart involuntarily trembled.

The speed at which he drew his sword, the ultimate control over his qi and blood, and even... the thunderous talent that carried a hint of the might of heaven and earth.

Who is this kid?

As the top fighter in Jiangcheng, Chi Xiao originally thought that there was very little in this world that could stir his heart.

But now, he feels his perception is being ripped apart.

Surprise, confusion, and then a deep disbelief.

Before he could even come to his senses...

The young man who was standing on the corpse twisted his body strangely and vanished into thin air right before his eyes.

"Spatial abilities?"

Chi Xiao's pupils contracted.

wrong.

It's not spatial stealth, it's optical stealth!

Behind the fourth-tier frost giant wolf that was preparing to escape, a vacuum passage was created in space due to the extreme power burst.

Shen Tian appeared.

He was like a treacherous thorn from the underworld, his black and gold longsword trailing a chilling crescent moon as it precisely slashed into the giant wolf's neck.

puff.

A huge wolf head shot skyward.

Shen Tian remained expressionless.

Without even glancing at the gushing fountain of blood, he lightly touched the wolf carcass with his toe, transforming into lightning once more as he rushed toward his next target.

The whole process was so smooth and fast it was breathtaking.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Shen Tian's somewhat arrogant, yet slightly fanatical, laughter echoed across the wilderness.

Chi Xiao stood on the edge of the cliff, watching Shen Tian single-handedly chasing and slashing a group of lords amidst a vast army, his mind went blank for a moment.

He originally intended to go down to rescue them.

Judging from the current situation, if he goes down there, he'll probably only end up helping others collect demon cores.

"What kind of monster is this?"

Chi Xiao's previously meditative state of mind, like that of an old monk in deep meditation, was now cracked open by a huge fissure.

He saw through every single move Shen Tian made.

It appears wild, but it is actually incredibly precise.

Every cut was made at the most vulnerable joint of the beast.

Each punch unleashed terrifying brute force several times greater than his cultivation level.

even.

In that intense fight, the kid's injuries were healing at an inhuman speed.

"Is this a talent?"

Chi Xiao muttered to himself.

Even at the headquarters of the Tian Shu Bureau, where geniuses abound, and in the "Greedy Wolf Division," a place teeming with monsters, such geniuses are extremely rare.

"How could such a young person appear in a small place like Jiangcheng?"

Chi Xiao rubbed his temples, a bitter smile appearing on his lips.

Even a composed and unflappable big shot like him felt the information overload today.

I've never seen anything like it.

The Dragon Kingdom is in a precarious situation.

But now, looking at the figure wielding a sword in the pouring rain, chasing after the beast lord who was howling in agony, a bizarre yet exhilarating thought suddenly arose in his mind.

perhaps.

This era is on the verge of collapse.

We need a genius to emerge out of nowhere and change things!

The moment Chi Xiao appeared on the battlefield, Shen Tian locked onto him using [Spider Sense].

Shen Tian realized that the peak fifth-tier expert in front of him had no ill intentions towards him.

Therefore, they did not become vigilant.

He carried a blood-dripping battle blade, his feet resting on the remains of a frost giant wolf.

He turned his head slightly, his scarlet eyes peering through the swirling dust and smoke, locking onto Chi Xiao, who stood atop the high cliff.

Shen Tian grinned, a smile that Chi Xiao perceived as highly provocative.

Right in front of Chi Xiao, he swung his knife again with a backhand motion.

Chi Xiao took a deep breath and then burst into laughter.

His heavy sword, which had never been touched before, now emitted a clear hum, as if it were yearning for battle.

"interesting."

Chixiao leaped off the high cliff.

"I'd like to see how many more surprises you can give me, kid."
