Chapter 135 - The Heart Excising Hand Versus the Raging Berserker Tide (2/2)
“The kid is here?” Cook placed his ‘tasty and delicious food’ in front of Qin Fen. “I knew you would come, so I made them specifically for you.”
“Thank-you.” Qin Fen began to eat under the watchful gaze of Gale Riley.
Cook realized that there was something off with Gale Riley’s gaze at this time. He asked, “Hey, Mr. Hide-and-Seek. What are you looking so weirdly at Qin Fen for?”
Gale Riley spoke at this moment. His tone seeped indescribably with a gratification. “He has changed. His one trip outside has led to huge changes within him.”
“Changed?” Cook studied Qin Fen carefully as well. He nodded his head, very much agreeing. “You’re right! He has now killed, so his body has that blood aura. He can barely be considered a true soldier.”
“That’s not it. There’s more.” Gale Riley wagged his wrist. “I’m not talking about this. I’m talking about the change with his aura and energy as a martial artist. He clearly has one of the hegemonic ways where only he reigns supreme, yet he can barely hide this aura and energy within his body. This is not just a change in strength. It is a change in the cultivation of martial arts.”
The several drill instructors all studied Qin Fen once more at this time. Gale Riley could be said to be the most capable expert on concealment out of everyone present.
A master of concealment is also a master of vision. Such a person is an expert in concealing his own aura, and such a person often possesses the ability to see through another person’s concealed aura.
Gale Riley was undoubtedly one of the best. His words possessed authority in the hearts of all the drill instructors.
Everyone studied Qin Fen carefully for quite some time before Gale Riley spoke some concluding words. “It looks like going out on the mission has helped you quite a bit.”
Qin Fen smiled, but he didn’t explain. Though he had really benefited from the mission in the Sky Battle Net, this was not the sole source for his increase in strength. The crazy consecutive fights on the Sky Battle Net had helped him enormously as well.
“Drill Instructor Cook, I had a friend look over the nutrient pills you gave me.” Qin Fen didn’t forget about the matter with Enzo Rota as he ate. “He said that he hopes to learn from you for three months.”
“Three months?”
Aside from Cook, the drill instructors revealed boundless disdain from their eyes. Though everyone was a rookie in the field of pharmaceuticals, they all knew Cook’s strength in this field. They knew how deep and profound his skills were. They weren’t things that could be learned in three years or even thirty years.
Cook smiled and said, “So three months you say? Not a problem. If he passes my test, even three years is fine with me. However, if he can’t pass, don’t say I haven’t given you face when the time comes Little Qin.”
Qin Fen smiled and continued to eat his meal. Enzo Rota wasn’t someone who liked to toot his own horn. His habitual silence made every word he spoke worth its weight in gold. Anything he said, he could certainly do. Though Cook’s strength was strong in this field, Old Enz’s strength should be enough to shock these drill instructors without any major problems.
Squad Leader Hao was very puzzled over Qin Fen’s calmness. This kid was behaving way too calm. Could it be that his friend had some aspect to him that far exceeded that of ordinary people?
Qin Fen finished enjoying this rich and ‘tasty’ meal. He stood up and gently warmed up his limbs and chest. “Drill Instructor Butcher, are interested in a….”
Qin Fen had yet to finish issuing his challenge when the two chopsticks that Butcher played in his hand turned into two dark streaks of lightning that shot toward Qin Fen’s chest.
Butcher attacked with five-star meteor level strength in the first instance. The attack power of the two chopsticks could pierce wood and shatter stone.
Qin Fen had long since become used to Butcher’s style of attacking without warning. The joint of his ankle suddenly expanded in all directions. The ceramic tiles beneath his feet instantly cracked with countless webs. The Dragon Guard, which he knew all too well, reappeared at this moment, allowing him to dodge the two chopsticks.
Bang! Bang! The two chopsticks were nailed into the wall, and the ends of the chopsticks continued to vibrate, letting out humming sounds. Butcher had already thrown himself upon Qin Fen in an explosive manner. The muscles of his palm rapidly squirmed as they transformed shapes. Its formless sound pierced toward Qin Fen’s heart.
It was the Heart Excising Hand! Butcher pursued the path of slaughter, and he had created his own unique skill. The skill involved compressing muscle to change shape, condensing the hand to become a weapon that’s in no way inferior to a block of steel. He had once relied on this technique to excise the hearts from the bodies of over thirty or so enemies on the battlefield.
Qin Fen didn’t dare to act even the slightest bit negligent at all. His expanded ankle suddenly shrunk, all the expansion of flesh completely shifted to the sole of his feet. The floor shattered in a giant jolt, and as the ceramic tile shattered, Qin Fen flickered to the side of Butcher’s side. The Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, already pressurized, was combined with the Raging Berserker Tide and completely unleashed!
A palm pushed out, generating screaming winds. True energy spurred the blood within the body to surge audibly! Butcher only felt the scene before his eyes turn pitch-black. It was really as if he stood in the middle of the ocean. He hastily loosened his killer knife hand strike, and the muscles of his arms and forearms rapidly expanded. The muscles bulged wide, forming two shields of flesh that forcefully rammed over.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Qin Fen unleashed his palms without holding anything back. Each wave grew stronger than the previous, and he simply forced the five-star meteor level Butcher to fly out the canteen. Butcher’s body heavily smashed into a tree, large enough that two people needed to hold hands to wrap their arms around, before stopping.
The large tree, often calm, let out rustling sounds, and quite a number of leaves fell down slowly from its branches.
Qin Fen seized dominance in one move. He didn’t go chasing after Butcher. He had ample confidence is this attack of his.
