Tokyo Knights: The Odd Jobs X Files

Besides its miraculous effects, the cultivation of the "Blood Hand Skill" is also extremely strange.

Ordinary martial arts techniques involve circulating qi through the meridians, but the "Blood Hand Miracle Skill" uses blood and qi as the flow to carry true qi. Therefore, when practicing this skill, the blood and qi in the hands condense and change various colors.

The extraordinary skill is divided into nine levels. Only when you reach the fourth level can you be considered to have entered the field. When you practice the skill, your hands will turn from white to red, and then from red to black. The successor of the Patching Heaven Pavilion used the fourth level of "Blood Hand Extraordinary Skill" to combine with the "Undying Seal Technique" to create the "Black Hand Demon Skill".

With Li Xin's yang energy "supplying" her, Mao Lixia's cultivation of the "Blood Hand Miracle Skill" went exceptionally smoothly. She reached the sixth level in a short time, and her hands turned white when she practiced the skill. Therefore, it was no longer appropriate to call her martial art "Black Hand Demon Skill"; it should be called "White Hand Demon Skill."

Thanks to Li Xin's help, Mao Lixia mastered the "Blood Hand Skill" to the sixth level, while Li Xin himself became even more extraordinary.

With the "War God's Record" as the general outline of martial arts, Li Xin, who already practiced both Yin and Yang, was not only achieving twice the result with half the effort when practicing the "Mastery of the Root of All Laws Wisdom Scripture", but also making rapid progress. He could not only practice both the light and dark volumes at the same time, but also made rapid progress. Even the "Blood Hand Miracle Skill" progressed by one level every day, and in less than half a month, he had practiced it to the eighth level of "Blood Hand".

After mastering the "Bloody Hand Skill" to the eighth level, one can not only unleash various kinds of true energy, but also manipulate the opponent's qi and blood.

Just now, when Nuga was making his move, the "Orochi Power" suddenly went out of control. It was Li Xin who interfered with the "Orochi Blood" with the "Blood Hand Technique," causing the "Orochi Blood" to congeal and become dormant.

This is equivalent to a fully loaded truck traveling at full speed on a highway, suddenly having its brakes slammed on. The truck stops, but the cargo, due to inertia, crashes into the front of the truck, potentially causing serious injury to Nuga.

The "blood of the great serpent" fell silent, and the wrathful self-healing ability also became ineffective, which can be said to be a double benefit for Li Xin.

Li Xin subdued Nuga with the "Blood Hand Miracle Skill," while what severely injured Vega was another method from the "Mastery of All Laws Root Source Wisdom Scripture"—the "Spirit Refining Technique."

This is a method for cultivating mental strength, which Mao Lixia also practices to improve her Taoist cultivation. It also includes many mental attack techniques.

However, Li Xin was a novice in the art and knew he was no match for Vega, a master of mental strength. He had pretended to be poisoned to show weakness and lure Vega into attacking him with his mental strength.

When Vega attacked his enemy with his mental power, it was also when his mental defense was at its weakest. Li Xin made his move at this moment, using his mental power to strike Vega's mind, causing him to bleed from all seven orifices and suffer great mental damage.

Besides training mental strength, the "Spirit Refining Technique" has many other amazing effects. For example, two people who practice the "Spirit Refining Technique" can communicate with each other through mental connection within a certain distance, which is like having a private chat.

With Li Xin and Mao Lixia's spiritual cultivation, the two can communicate telepathically even when they are five kilometers apart using the "Spirit Refining Technique".

With Mauricea having subdued Lei Dao, and Donovan finally revealing himself after hiding, Li Xin's side can now come to an end.

With a single, devastating blow to Nuga and Vega, Li Xin only needs to exert a little more effort to completely eliminate these two!

Fearing that his hard-earned situation would be ruined, Li Xin used the "Scripture of Wisdom that Controls All Laws and Their Roots" to solidify the space around Nuga and Vega, sealing off Vega's last possibility of teleportation, and then unleashed a palm strike called "Buddha Moves Mountains and Rivers".

"Buddha Moves Mountains and Rivers" is upright and straightforward, without any fancy moves, but it is the most powerful of the first six moves of "Buddha's Palm".

The Buddhist power contained within is the nemesis of Nuga's "Orochi Power" and Vega's spiritual power, which is formed from negative emotions such as despair and fear. Li Xin is confident that this move is enough to completely kill Nuga and Vega.

Faced with the deadly attack, Vega naturally wanted to escape by teleporting. However, his mind was injured, and the solidifying force around him was interfering with his teleportation. Forcing a teleportation only made him vomit blood and worsen his injuries.

Sensing Vega's teleportation attempt had failed, Nuga looked at him. This ruthless figure only needed a moment's thought to know what to do. He glanced at Vega and gave him a look: "Vega, it's up to you now!"

Suddenly, Nuga's body began to swell uncontrollably, a manifestation of the "Serpent's power" raging within him.

You can't control the power of Orochi without the blood of Orochi, right? Since you can't control it, then don't try to control it at all, just self-destruct!

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, Nuga resolutely chose to self-destruct, thinking that if he was going to die, no one else would get away with it.

The raging "Orochi Power" transformed into a destructive force, erupting from the center of Nuga and forming a massive explosion capable of destroying everything.

Li Xin was shocked to see this scene. Behind him were the fighters who participated in "DOA". Nuga's self-destruction might not be able to hurt Li Xin, but it could definitely drag these fighters down to hell with him.

Therefore, Li Xin transformed the "Buddha Moves Mountains and Rivers" and used the "Scripture of Wisdom that Controls All Dharmas and Their Roots" to turn the illusory into the real, transforming the air in front of him into an invisible barrier as solid as a copper wall and iron wall, to resist Nuga's self-destruction.

But how violent is the "Serpent Power"? Previously, Nuga had been driven to self-destruction by the "Serpent Power". Now, Nuga, with his extraordinary strength, has detonated the "Serpent Power" within him. Even Li Xin finds this power troublesome.

The qi barrier formed by the "Scripture of Wisdom that Controls All Laws" shattered, forcing Li Xin to retreat to the middle of the fighting fighters. He used "Buddha's Light" to create a huge turquoise lotus platform, using the lotus platform formed by his true qi to protect the fighters.

The impact of the self-destruction shattered Li Xin's air barrier, and naturally also shattered the solidified space around Vega. However, Vega's body also continuously cracked during the impact.

Despite his body disintegrating, Vega remained indifferent as a blood-red prosthetic eye was propelled by the shock of the explosion and flew over his head.

Vega's eyes glowed red as he roared, his body shattering in the impact. A blue-purple light detached from his shattered shell and rushed towards the prosthetic eye.

The blue-purple light enveloped the prosthetic eye. Freed from the constraints of his physical form, he found it even easier to use his mental power. He silently chanted "teleport," and with a flash of blue light, the blue-purple light and the prosthetic eye disappeared together in the explosion.

Evil won't disappear, and we won't end this so easily. Just wait, we'll be back!

"Vega said silently before teleporting away."

Chapter 702 What a pair of star-crossed lovers

Nu Jia's self-destruction not only impacted fighters like Li Xin, but also affected the "Freedom Survivor," the stage for the "DOA" fighting tournament.

The self-destruction of an extraordinary powerhouse is no ordinary event. Even though the power of Nuga's self-destruction mainly radiated in all directions, even if only a small portion landed at the feet, it would still be a huge disaster for this giant ship.

The giant ship was tossed and turned in the sea by the impact of the self-destruction. Finally, it could not bear the weight and a huge crack appeared in the middle. The hull began to break apart and a large amount of seawater rushed in. This largest luxury cruise ship in the world was about to repeat the history of the Titanic.

In the banquet hall, the guests, who had been thrown about by the jolting, were numb.

What the hell is this? We came to watch a fighting tournament, and it's turned into a Titanic movie for us!

Even more troublesome than these guests was Donovan.

With his two most important allies, Nuga and Vega, dead, what should he do next?

Lei Dao, Lei Dao! I still have Lei Dao! As long as Lei Dao catches Fim...

Just as Donovan's hope began to rise, he saw Fim slowly walk down the stairs and address the panicked guests around him: "Don't worry, everyone, the 'Freedom Survivor' has excellent emergency response measures. Please don't panic. Follow the staff in an orderly manner to board the lifeboats. There is another 'DOATEC' cruise ship nearby, so you don't need to worry about not receiving orderly rescue."

Fim's appearance brought joy to the guests, who were saved, but plunged Donovan into despair, for he was doomed.

Donovan knew very well that there were only two possibilities for Fim's presence here at this time: either Rado had betrayed him and joined Fim, or Rado had not betrayed him but had been subdued or killed by Fim's men.

Either way, it's a dead end for Donovan.

No, that's not right, he still has one last way to survive!

Donovan feigned composure and said to Fim, "Fim, do you remember your lovers? They're visiting my house right now. Let me go back, and I'll release them immediately."

Although Donovan believed he was in the best of luck, he was a cautious man who always left himself an out.

Before the "DOA" competition began, he ordered his men to capture Fim's lovers. He knew Fim's character well; he was a womanizer but also a man of deep affection. He had deep feelings for each of his lovers, especially Maria, who was his most beloved lover and Helena's mother. With these people as bargaining chips, he could not only escape this calamity but might even be able to turn defeat into victory!

But then Fim smiled slightly and said to Donovan, "Do you think you can still leave now that things have come to this?"

Seeing that Fim refused to let him go, a cold glint flashed in Donovan's eyes, and he said, "You forced me to do this!"

Donovan pulled out a satellite phone and said into it, "Just kill any woman you like!"

He has seven hostages, so killing one wouldn't hurt him, just to let Fim know he wasn't joking!

Donovan gave the order, but the reply came not from his men, but from a stranger: "Your men have all been killed. Mr. Fim's lovers are safe now. As for you, you can choose your own grave."

Seeing Donovan's shocked expression, Fim couldn't help but laugh: "You can think of capturing my darlings, do you think I can't think of protecting them? Ashin's friends have been with Maria and the others the whole time. Your people were taken care of before they even got close to them."

"Then why did they call me back and say that the person had been caught...?"

"Because the call I made was fake, I'm sorry, I lied to you."

A child's voice came through the satellite phone, and then the call was disconnected.

Donovan lowered his hand helplessly and said with a dejected smile, "I never thought I would lose to you!"

In Donovan's view, Fim has always been a visionary. It was thanks to him that "DOATEC" gradually defeated other military enterprises and became the leader in the European military industry. All of this stemmed from his efforts!

"You brought this all on yourself."

Fim looked at Donovan with a complicated expression. He never expected that he and his old friend, who had fought alongside him to build the empire, would end up in this situation.

The guests had no time to pay attention to the standoff between Fim and Donovan; they were too busy escaping to care about the love-hate relationship between the two old men.

Even if a giant ship like the "Freedom Survivor" were to sink, it would be an extremely long process. With a small number of passengers and enough lifeboats, even a slow evacuation would be sufficient for them to leave.

But in a situation like this, who would leisurely evacuate? So even with the on-site staff constantly providing guidance, a stampede still occurred—these usually impeccably dressed members of high society were no more vulnerable than ordinary people when their lives were threatened, after all, they truly had vast fortunes to inherit!

In contrast to the guests, the fighters seemed much more relaxed.

Thanks to Li Xin's protection, the fighters were not affected by the explosion of the giant ship. Although the explosion caused the ship to shake, the shaking was nothing to the fighters.

As the impact of the self-destruction dissipated, Li Xin looked towards the site of the explosion and was shocked to see a huge crack appear in the giant ship.

He first concentrated his true energy in both hands, crushing the modified warriors into mincemeat from a distance, and then said to the fighters participating in the competition, "You guys retreat first!"

As he spoke, Li Xin activated the "Scripture of Wisdom that Exhausts All Laws and Their Roots," radiating his spiritual power outwards.

Under Li Xin's guidance, the surrounding seawater seemed to come alive, rising into waves without wind, and two towering waves converged on the giant ship, one after the other.

However, after the two giant waves merged, they did not crash onto the giant ship. Instead, they acted like two giant hands, carefully supporting the giant ship and closing it up from the point where the cracks were widening and it was about to break in two.

Seawater, which is normally formless, suddenly became as hard as iron, and actually held up the giant ship.

In the sea, countless fish remained motionless, as if frozen in amber, staring at this strange scene with innocent eyes and bewildered expressions.

Transforming reality into illusion, and controlling all things—this is the "Scripture of Wisdom that Controls the Roots of All Laws"!

Upon witnessing such an astonishing sight, the fighters who were preparing to evacuate were all stunned.

Is this something a human could do? They were just competing against monsters like that!? Were they even worthy?

Seeing that the fighters were stunned, Li Xin shouted, "Let's go!"

Do you really think Li Xin's internal energy is inexhaustible? Using the "Mastery of All Laws and Roots of Wisdom Scripture" like this is a huge drain on Li Xin, and he can only last for a few hours.

Urged on by Li Xin, the fighters assumed that Li Xin was struggling to perform such a technique and dared not delay him, so they quickly retreated to the lifeboat.

After the fighters left, Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, he thought of something and, while maintaining the "Scripture of Wisdom for Controlling All Laws," jumped into the sea.

Li Xin's fists emitted a chilling aura, which spread out from him and froze the seawater before it even reached the surface.

"Heavenly Frost Fist - Braving Snow and Frost!"

With one move and four techniques, the strongest move of the "Heavenly Frost Fist" was unleashed by Li Xin with power far exceeding its limits, instantly freezing the seawater around the "Freedom Survivor" into solid ice.

The giant waves carrying the giant ship turned into solid ice, completely fixing their shape. Li Xin dispersed the power of the "Mastery of All Laws and Roots Wisdom Scripture" and slowly landed on the floating ice that had been frozen by the "Heavenly Frost Fist".

After freezing the giant ship with the "Heavenly Frost Fist", Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief, while silently cursing Nurhaci in his heart: "He self-destructs every time he loses, he can't take a joke!"

The giant ship was frozen solid and there was no immediate risk of it capsizing, so the evacuation proceeded smoothly. The only problem was that the lifeboats couldn't be lowered due to the frozen seawater. However, with so many fighters around, breaking the ice and launching the ship was quite easy. In no time, everyone was transferred to another giant ship a few nautical miles away.

When the last group of people boarded the ship, Fim breathed a sigh of relief. This competition was organized by "DOATEC", and if anyone died as a result, he, as the president of "DOATEC", would be held responsible.

Just when Fim thought everything was over, one of his men suddenly came to report: "Mr. Fim, something bad has happened! Donovan and the woman next to him have escaped!"

"what!"

Fim was taken aback.

After hearing his subordinates' account, Fim learned that during the chaos, Donovan's confidants had appeared and kidnapped Donovan and Miyako.

"hateful……"

Fim was furious that the venomous snake had escaped; he feared he would have to sleep with one eye open from now on.

"Mr. Fim, please rest assured, we let the person go on purpose."

Suddenly, Gale walked over and said to Fim, "Donovan must have some other secret base. Besides him, we must also destroy all his sinful research."

Upon hearing Gale's words, Fim couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you discuss this with me beforehand?"

Seeing Gale's silent expression, Fim quickly understood that he was worried about him.

Indeed, Donovan's modified warriors were no match for Li Xin, but if deployed on the battlefield, they would be absolutely devastating weapons of war. Fim is currently standing with Li Xin and the others, but who knows if he will become interested in Donovan's research?

After figuring it out, Fim felt relieved. He asked Gale, "Are the people following Donovan reliable? We don't want to lose them."

Hayate said confidently, "Don't worry, he is the most powerful ninja in the world, and he will definitely not let Donovan escape."

That's right, the person who went to track Donovan this time was none other than Super Ninja Ryu Hayabusa.

Ryu Hayabusa hasn't shown up, not because he hasn't come, but because he's been investigating Donovan. Most of Donovan's secret bases were discovered by Ryu Hayabusa.

The task of tracking Donovan was also assigned to Ryu Hayabusa.

Poor Donovan thought he had two extraordinary experts on his side, while Fim only had Li Xin on his side, so he was fighting two against one.

But in reality, Fim's side not only has Li Xin, but also Morishia and Hayabusa. Li Xin alone is enough to defeat the combined power of the two extraordinary beings, Nuga and Vega. In other words, Fim's side still has two extraordinary beings to spare.

Given such a huge disparity in skill, how could Donovan possibly avoid defeat?

But Donovan had no idea that he and Miyako were on a speedboat, fleeing at breakneck speed.

Donovan, who always appeared to be a refined gentleman, had disheveled hair and a livid face.

With two major allies dead, his years of amassed modified warriors wiped out, and numerous research facilities destroyed, he will have no place in "DOATEC" after today. Fim will use today's great victory to completely eradicate his forces from "DOATEC"...

He lost, he lost miserably!

"No, I haven't lost! I haven't lost yet!"

Donovan's sudden remark startled Miyako, who was standing nearby.

"I still have the technology to modify soldiers, and I have several secret research institutes in Prussia. As long as these technologies remain, and as long as my research team is still there, I can make a comeback!"
