Chapter 100

As the large handprint and the dual claws officially touched, Long Taiyang felt his blood and qi shaken to instability. The fierce dark force and the impact kinetic energy surged like a mountain flood, causing the force from his palms to his shoulders, back, and waist to be momentarily stifled. The subsequent exquisite killing moves were temporarily unable to be executed due to the overwhelming force.

What a tremendous power! Long Taiyang did not underestimate Li Pu. This move was already his all-out effort. However, he did not expect this young man's physical strength to be so formidable! It was simply illogical.

One can generally gauge a person's strength by their physique and age. The young man in front of him was not old enough, and his physique appeared average, yet the physical strength he unleashed far exceeded that of most of his opponents.

It was as if he had been modified.

While he might not understand, if we set aside techniques, realms, spirit, and experience, in terms of pure极限力量 (extreme strength), every tendon, every bone, and every organ of Li Pu, who had undergone countless trials and near-death experiences, had been treated, reformed, and optimized by the Life Blueprint. He was no less powerful than a Dan Qi Martial Saint who had tempered his body and blood, and even surpassed them!

However, Li Pu himself was not feeling too well. His arm, which had been fiercely grabbed by Long Taiyang's ten fingers, was penetrated by ten powerful dark forces. Not only did it make his arm's blood and qi stagnate, but the tough tendons inside, taut like steel wires, also felt as if they might snap.

The young man's physical strength was not like that of a naturally powerful person like Swallow Star, but his cultivation and realm were clearly beyond the Transformation of Qi stage, and he might have already formed a Dan. Apart from his physique, his force emission techniques, fighting style, and experience were all superior to Li Pu's. Li Pu knew that, according to the logic of normal martial arts, if the fight continued, his chances of winning were extremely slim.

But that was just the logic of normal martial arts.

Li Pu's slightly injured wrist sank, and he launched another strong attack without hesitation. The Life Blueprint immediately began to repair the damage. This advanced, unknown technology, more advanced than the nanobots in science fiction, used the organic matter stored in his body to quickly repair any internal injuries.

According to legend, only a land-bound Immortal who had achieved the ultimate state of indestructibility could use the profound Inner Vision realm to stimulate body cells to repair internal and external injuries. However, from the day Li Pu obtained the Divine Warrior Armament, he had already gained this special ability, which was typically possessed by land-bound Immortals.

Moreover, it was even more efficient. Managed entirely by the intelligent AI, monitored by the Life Blueprint, Li Pu did not need to be distracted at all.

As long as his vital organs were not hit, or he did not suffer major wounds or lose any body parts, Li Pu estimated that it would be difficult for him to lose in a one-on-one fight due to injuries.

Since that was the case, let's see who has more stamina. I can automatically heal every round! Li Pu's face was solemn, but he inwardly smirked.

Long Taiyang did not know Li Pu's true capabilities and felt that he could injure the young man in front of him with each attack. Under the fierce and continuous assault, it would not take many rounds to bring down this young man with boundless potential.

The young man's physical strength was extremely formidable, but it was not to the point where he could not handle it. In each high-speed round, he could use his exquisite and precise dark force techniques to inflict some damage on the opponent. Over time, even an iron man would collapse.

What a pity! Long Taiyang could not help but sigh, feeling confident of his victory. The unknown Chinese youth in front of him, who was protecting the girl, was truly brave to stand up to a world-class expert like himself.

However, in his dictionary, bravery and stupidity were the same. Stupidity was synonymous with death.

Li Pu and Ji Wangyue were evenly matched against Long Taiyang and Hu Qinglan. However, the Raven King had sent a total of seven subordinates, and Long Taiyang and Hu Qinglan were only of medium caliber among them.

Among them was Omega Yuriko, a high school girl with superpowers who was fearless and prioritized emotion over reason.

She was quite dismissive of Long Taiyang and Hu Qinglan's interference. She could easily and cleanly take care of those two. World-class mercenaries were just pawns of her teacher.

She was the most valued and powerful student of Teacher Medusa. One day, when the elderly Teacher Medusa passed away, she might have the chance to inherit the position of Raven King. At that time, she would not want any strange titles like Raven King. She could be the Witch Omega, the Queen of Snakes, or anything else!

So, at least she would complete the first task given by her teacher beautifully.

Her gaze returned to Chen Xian. At some point, a short-haired girl dressed in a blue qipao, resembling Chun-Li from "Street Fighter," had appeared beside her. The short-haired girl was standing in front of Chen Xian, and she was very annoying.

Omega Yuriko thought maliciously about throwing her to the ceiling with her willpower.

But before she could mobilize the mental energy in her "virtual crown" in her brain, the "monster maid" Rebecca Robilda, who had been guarding her, moved first.

Rebecca, who had been standing quietly beside her in a Victorian-era black and white maid's uniform, looking like a cold and delicate doll, moved like a T-800 robot from the "Terminator" movies when she acted.

Cold, powerful, and filled with an extraordinary and terrifying strength.

She always carried a heavy, black umbrella with a three-centimeter-thick alloy steel handle. With one hand, she swung the umbrella, her skirt flaring as she spun and struck behind her.

The air burst, and a gale was triggered! A simple and direct sweeping strike with the umbrella had the speed and power to shatter even a thick concrete wall. It was not the result of martial arts training but a battle-tested fighting style. Simple, accurate, and swift! It was almost on par with Hu Qinglan's exquisite sword techniques, and the force even slightly exceeded that of the Dan Qi Martial Saint Long Taiyang.

Rebecca, chosen by the Raven King as a personal maid, was not only a woman but also one of the most outstanding "knights" after undergoing various modification surgeries. Before the modifications, she was the top female mercenary in all of South America. After the modifications, her physique, strength, nerve reaction speed, and various hand-to-hand and weapon combat skills (as well as serving techniques) were greatly enhanced.

As Omega Yuriko's personal bodyguard, in terms of comprehensive combat ability, she was second only to the Succubus and Omega Yuriko, almost on par with Long Taiyang.

A figure was sent flying by Rebecca's strike. It was the invited instructor Lin Jie, who had tried to secretly capture the most dangerous Omega Yuriko but failed to escape Rebecca's notice.

"Even if I can understand this woman's reaction speed, how can her strength be so great? Even a naturally powerful man like Cui Qinglang can't match her!" Lin Jie's arm was numb, and he landed lightly, rolling away like a character in an action movie.

The maid Rebecca raised the heavy alloy umbrella with one hand, aimed the tip at him, and pulled the trigger hidden inside. With a loud bang, the umbrella's tip spewed flames, and powerful military-grade shotgun shells were fired in rapid succession. If Lin Jie's movements had been a hundredth of a second slower, he would have been turned into a sieve, but his windbreaker was still riddled with holes. "Tsk..." Instructor Lin Jie nimbly dodged the "monster maid" Rebecca, who was pursuing him with the umbrella-turned-shotgun. He had intended to try to ambush Omega Yuriko, but he did not expect the Gothic maid beside her to be just as dangerous as he was.

"Wow!" The crowd in the club exploded. The hand-to-hand and cold weapon combat between the Long and Hu couple and Li Pu and Ji Wangyue might have been entertaining, but the use of firearms was a completely different matter. Apart from the students of Eagle Feather Academy, the other guests scrambled to flee toward the exits.

"Sorry, although you are not our targets, the matter is not over yet." A red-haired man smiled and blocked the exit. "If you run out and start causing a commotion, it will be a bit troublesome, so please stay for a moment."

Like swatting flies, the red-haired man, Fumou Wu Huan, casually waved his hand, and the dozen or so ordinary people who rushed over fell one by one. Each of their necks was pierced by a precisely calibrated micro-dart of anesthetic that Fumou Wu Huan had prepared.

In the blink of an eye, Fumou Wu Huan used the unique technique of "Hundred Traces Hand" to shoot darts into the necks of nearly twenty targets.

However, in the crowd, a slender woman dressed in a hoodie with a hood, resembling a street dance girl, remained unharmed. Not only did she avoid the darts, but she moved with a speed that even Fumou Wu Huan found hard to react to, closing the distance in a single step and appearing right in front of him.

Under the incomprehensible ultra-high-speed assault, the woman's hood was blown off by a tangible wave of air. She lifted her head, revealing a face of exquisite beauty, her natural fragrance wafting in the breeze. However, her eyes, like autumn water, were filled with a cold, bone-chilling, and extremely dangerous killing intent.
