Rise to God with Life Skill Professions-Chapter 336 - 326: Scapegoat, Counterattack

When the last ray of moonlight was devoured by dark clouds, the momentum of both sides in the confrontation reached its peak, as if a spark would explode the entire battlefield.

"Kill!"

The Fox Girl raised her fair hand gently, a cold gleam flashing in her eyes.

This command was like a torch thrown into a gunpowder barrel, instantly igniting a murderous atmosphere.

Hu Long was the first to strike.

The long blade at his waist rang sharply as it was unsheathed, enveloped with violent True Essence and Divine Sense, transforming into a silver streak that slashed straight at Qin An’s head.

As a master immersed in Great Success of the Inner God Realm for years, the power of this slash was enough to terrify ordinary cultivators.

Nine Inner God Realm experts attacked simultaneously, the Mountain Patrol Silver Generals and the Fox Girls unleashed their killing moves, the overwhelming pressure advancing like tidal waves.

Under such siege, even a strong practitioner in the Great Success of Inner God Realm couldn’t escape death.

Qin An took a deep breath, then his eyes suddenly focused, slicing horizontally with his long blade.

The Cold Star Saber flashed with Six-Colored True Essence, intertwined with the Power of Divine Sense, carrying a world-destroying force that collided with several attacks.

The next moment, a huge roar echoed across this wilderness.

Qin An felt violent tremors from Cold Star, as though it was shaking through his entire body along the blade.

Dharma Image of Heavenly Physician!

Without hesitation, Qin An exercised True Essence, deploying the Dharma Image of Heavenly Physician.

A golden dharma image gathered behind Qin An, emanating a holy aura that inspired longing.

"Boom!"

The remaining attacks crashed onto the dharma image.

The golden light outside the dharma image didn’t last a moment, suddenly dissipating.

Qin An was jolted, blood flowing from his mouth, his steps faltering slightly, as he arrived before a nearby Fox Girl, and swung a blade horizontally.

The Fox Girl looked at the approaching straight blade, yet her eyes bore a trace of calmness, as if she didn’t care.

Qin An immediately became alert, executing Dragon Roar Shadow Step, his figure abruptly retreating.

As his form left the original spot, a bloody fist descended from the sky, fiercely pounding the ground.

The ground cracked, with a huge pit spreading out.

Qin An paused slightly, focusing ahead.

The Fox Girl sighed: "Pity, didn’t fall into the trap, I’ve already researched your moves thoroughly, only wanting to first kill a Fox Girl, seize her demon sense, and then use your Blood Burning Secret Skill to cope."

Along with Fox Girl’s voice, a swarm of blood qi rose from the Fox Girls and Mountain Patrol Silver Generals.

The blood qi intertwined, forming a ten-zhang-high blood-colored shadow.

The shadow bore the visage of a Fox Girl, as well as the form of Hu Long and other Mountain Patrol Silver Generals, appearing frightful and irresistible.

Qin An wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, raising his eyebrows: "Had I continued attacking just now, this fist would surely have struck me dead on the spot."

Speaking amidst the True Essence flow, the healing ability carried by the dharma image had nearly healed Qin An’s wounds.

Yet a considerable amount of True Essence was consumed.

The Fox Girl leisurely approached, crushing the earth beneath her feet, a blood-colored shadow behind her let out a silent roar: "Being discovered doesn’t matter, anyway today you cannot escape, everyone, activate the Blood God Secret Technique!"

Today, she must make Qin An die.

This matter is extremely important.

If Qin An doesn’t die, she cannot possibly break through to the Unity Realm with her lifespan.

Only by eradicating Qin An can she pray for the envoy to inform the top powers, granting her the chance to breakthrough.

Therefore, before coming, she had thoroughly studied all of Qin An’s cultivation techniques.

Initially expecting Qin An to fall into the trap, unexpectedly, this little bastard turned out to be so cautious.

But none of that mattered, what mattered was, today Qin An would not escape.

With the Fox Girl’s words, the blood-colored figure suddenly raised its fist, fiercely striking toward Qin An.

Ten zhang high, its body was immense, like a small mountain, chilling one’s heart.

This punch was not just a simple move.

Surrounding it was a terrifying Qi Blood Power spreading, rapidly closing in on Qin An.

Whether it be this fist or that Qi Blood Power, as long as they bind Qin An, they will absorb all flesh and blood on him.

This is the strongest secret technique Fox Girl possesses—the Blood God Great Technique.

She had continually collected cultivator’s refined blood for this purpose.

Before coming, everyone drank a cup of refined cultivator’s blood.

It was refined to the extreme, enough to last for more than half an hour.

In this half-hour, not to mention that Qin An is only at the initial comprehension of Inner God Realm, even if an Inner God Realm Perfection were here, they’d have no choice but to surrender.

The Qi Blood Power had been pushed to its limit by the Fox Girl and others.

Qin An suddenly sighed deeply, sheathing his sword, watching the Qi Blood Power surge, but his eyes remained incredibly calm.

This calm expression immediately sent shivers down the spines of the Fox Girl and others.

For some reason, seeing the little bastard’s expression gave Fox Girl a sense of unease.

"Truly foolish." Qin An said slowly.

With just one sentence, everyone present froze like wooden chickens.

"I have the Blood Burning Secret Skill, why dare to use Qi Blood Power against me?"

Upon these words, amid the shocked stares of everyone, the blood god shadow fiercely struck Qin An.

"Boom!"

In this terrifying boom, Qin An suddenly shattered into countless fragments.

Fox Girl stood frozen in place, and the other Fox Girls together with Hu Long and the others were stunned by this scene.

"Earlier I felt him drawing away part of the Qi Blood Power, but this Qi Blood Power was like an ocean to him, hence he stopped drawing away." Fox Girl’s face remained calm and serene, slowly speaking.

Hu Long frowned: "This little bastard overestimated his strength, therefore during the draw, was smashed into pieces by the blood god shadow’s fist."

Other three Mountain Patrol Silver Generals nodded slightly.

"Avenging today’s grudge is truly a blessing."

The other Fox Girls also let out a sigh of relief.

Qin An brought them great pressure, especially Carefree Mountain, repeatedly facing crises at his hands.

Even instilling an invisible fear of Qin An within them.

Now Qin An finally died, to them it’s actually a great joy.

The Fox Girl’s expression was solemn, as if she sensed something was amiss.

Killing Qin An today seemed too simple.

But the fact was undeniable, Qin An was truly dead beyond any doubt.

"Let’s return to Carefree Mountain first." The Fox Girl thought for a moment, waving her hand to make the decision.

The numerous fox girls responded all at once.

Hu Long said blandly, "From now on, you and I have no further ties. If anything happens in the future, don’t come looking for me."

After speaking, he waited no longer for the Fox Girl’s response and quietly left with three Mountain Patrol Silver Generals.

The Fox Girl watched the figures disappear, the coldness in her eyes growing stronger: "No ties? If you think there can be no ties, that’s impossible. When Carefree Mountain needs you in the future, if you refuse, I’ll expose your matters to the Evil Extermination Bureau."

Thinking of this, the Fox Girl’s heart was filled with delight.

The thrill of avenging a great vendetta mixed with the satisfaction of manipulating the Mountain Patrol Silver Generals of the Evil Extermination Bureau.

It even caused her body to tremble slightly.

"Once we get back, find me several human cultivators. I want to have a good time." The Fox Girl ordered, leading the group of fox girls into disappearance.

The place fell into silence, as if no battle had ever occurred here.

...

A hundred miles away, in a quiet forest.

Qin An strolled out, reaching into his robe to take out a thin, glowing needle.

"The Substitute Needle truly is a treasure for escaping." Qin An said indifferently.

Just now, in the face of that terrifying remnant of the Blood God, he wanted to absorb its qi blood power for his own use, but found that the power was vast like mountains and seas, completely unusable.

At the critical moment, Qin An activated the Substitute Needle, creating a fake body in place, while his real body fled a hundred miles away, thus temporarily preserving his life without any loss.

Qin An put away the Substitute Needle, his eyes glinting coldly: "I thought I would have to wait to avenge this, but unexpectedly, it gave me an unexpected gain. Tonight, I’ll stir up a bloody storm."

The qi blood power he absorbed was now sealed within his body, rampaging like a restless beast, but was forcibly suppressed by the Six-Colored True Essence.

Mysteriously, Qin An sensed that he could use this qi blood power to locate Hu Long and the Fox Girl.

After a brief thought, he understood the reason.

The opposing party used the cultivator’s blood essence to condense the Blood God’s remnant image; as long as the blood essence in his body wasn’t gone, he could determine their location.

At present, the Fox Girl and Hu Long had already split into two groups, making it the perfect time to take them down one by one.

Qin An drew the Cold Star, his finger brushing over the blade: "Carefree Mountain’s terrain is remote, hard to locate, but with this qi blood power as a guide, the location is like an open door to me. However, before that, I can take on an assignment."

The silver badge at his waist glowed.

A light screen appeared in front of Qin An.

After a brief selection, Qin An chose a task no one had taken up.

[Annihilation of Carefree Mountain]

Due to Carefree Mountain’s secrecy, it was incredibly difficult to find, so no one had taken the task.

Fortunately, Qin An could take it on to earn some merit.

Thinking of this, Qin An tapped his finger quickly, accepting the task.

After a little contemplation, Qin An lifted the long blade and headed in one direction.

"Before wiping out Carefree Mountain, let’s have an appetizer. Our grudges will be settled today."

Qin An’s chilling voice lingered in the air, like a frost-edged blade, sending shivers down one’s spine.

...

In the desolate mountain wilderness, Hu Long and the three Mountain Patrol Silver Generals were speeding through.

They were already far from the Fox Girl, but having committed the crime of slaughtering a comrade, they felt uneasy, wanting to get as far away as possible.

Until they reached a river, they finally stopped.

Hu Long turned to face the three fellow comrades, speaking coldly, "Today’s matter must not be mentioned to anyone, not even the closest of kin, or it could bring about disaster for our entire families."

A Mountain Patrol Silver Craftsman nodded slightly: "Rest assured, after this task ends, let’s not meet for a while, and if we encounter tasks, pretend not to recognize each other."

Hu Long looked at the wide river before him: "Alright, since it’s all done, let’s part ways here."

The four of them exchanged glances, nodding in unison.

Brought together because of Qin An, and now that Qin An was supposedly killed by them, they naturally wouldn’t leave traces for the Evil Extermination Bureau.

Hu Long chose a direction, intending to leave first.

But just at this moment, a contemptuous voice echoed across the riverbank.

"The road to the Underworld is narrow, why not travel together?"

As the voice suddenly resounded, Hu Long whipped around, a look of shock and disbelief in his eyes.

"Impossible! How can it be him!"

The other three Mountain Patrol Silver Generals all turned to look into the depths of the forest.

They were all too familiar with this voice, the same belonging to Qin An, whom they believed they had just killed.

But they had seen with their own eyes Qin An perish at the hands of the Blood God’s remnant. Why was he suddenly here?

A bizarre thought kept swirling in their minds.

The figure in the forest was slowly approaching.

Footsteps sounded from afar, becoming the only rhythm in the forest.

This rhythm, accompanied by the sound of heartbeat, made each step feel like a hammer hitting Hu Long and the others.

The young man in black approached leisurely, holding a straight blade, his expression cold as ice, a ferocious killing intent hidden in his eyes.

Hu Long’s eyes widened: "Everyone, be careful!"

At this moment, he was sure Qin An was not dead, and now there were only four of them, fearing they couldn’t handle it.

As his words fell, Qin An’s figure stopped on the spot but gradually faded.

Using Dragon Roar Shadow Step, Qin An silently arrived in front of a Mountain Patrol Silver General.

In the Silver General’s fearful eyes, the Cold Star with chilling light pierced fiercely toward his chest.

The Silver General, seeing the anomaly, shouted, waving both palms in an attempt to knock the Cold Star away.

The Six-Colored True Essence, carrying the Power of Divine Sense, pierced through his palms with unparalleled speed, bringing forth a splash of blood.

"Ah!"

A scream rang out.

The Silver General watched helplessly as the straight blade plunged into his chest, powerless to resist.

Qin An leaned down, whispering softly in the Silver General’s ear: "Don’t worry, those flirtatious foxes will soon join you."
