Chapter 2 - Killing someone

Zhao Tiezhu's furious figure seemed to slow down in his eyes. The trajectory of each movement, the exertion of muscles, the circulation of qi and blood... all become clear and visible.

He could even 'see' the blood gas inside Zhao Tiezhu's body that had spiraled out of control due to the explosion of the Blood Pill, as well as several nodes that had become fragile due to forced lifting.

At the same time, countless battle scenes, techniques, and experiences are imprinted in his physical memory as if they were innate.

Turn sideways, take steps, and spin your waist.

Li Fan's body, at an incredible angle and speed, avoided the punch that Zhao Tiezhu was determined to win in a moment of desperation.

Then, with his right hand in the shape of a palm knife, he did not attack Zhao Tiezhu's vital points, but accurately cut three inches below Zhao Tiezhu's left rib.

That is a key hub for the operation of the Explosive Blood Pill's medicinal power.

Uh

Zhao Tiezhu let out a muffled groan, and a severe pain came from his left rib, causing a sudden disorder in his qi and blood circulation.

He stumbled and his attack faltered.

Li Fan seized the fleeting opportunity and stepped forward with his left foot to grab Zhao Tiezhu's heel, while his right elbow hit Zhao Tiezhu's chest with a hammer like force!

Bang!

The dull sound of impact.

Zhao Tiezhu spewed out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards.

But Li Fan's movements haven't stopped yet.

He followed Zhao Tiezhu like a shadow and caught up before he landed. His right hand formed a claw with five fingers and grabbed Zhao Tiezhu's throat.

Then, taking advantage of the momentum of the forward charge, with Zhao Tiezhu's body, he pressed hard on the ground!

Boom!

Zhao Tiezhu's back of the head slammed heavily onto the compacted ground.

Dust is flying.

Li Fan pressed one knee against Zhao Tiezhu's chest, his right hand tightly gripping his throat, and his left hand pressing down on his struggling left hand.

The whole process flows like clouds and water, lightning fast.

From Zhao Tiezhu swallowing medicine and exploding to being subdued by Li Fan on the ground, it only took two or three breaths.

The whole room fell silent once again.

This time, I couldn't even hear my breathing.

All the disciples looked blankly at the center of the field, as if they had been cursed.

Did Li Fan win?

Not only did you win, but you also won so cleanly, so... crushing?

A mortal laborer who subdued an inner disciple who swallowed the Explosive Blood Pill and temporarily achieved perfection the day after tomorrow?

This is not subversion of cognition, but a challenge to the common sense of heaven!

Li Fan felt the faint struggle of Zhao Tiezhu beneath him, slowly exhaling a murky aura.

The effect of basic combat instinct infusion is fading, but the feeling of controlling everything just now has made him addicted.

Is this... power?

Ding! [Desperate Anti Kill] mission completed

The prompt sound of the system carries a clear appreciation:

[ Basic Shock Value ]: 25 points (extreme reversal, visual impact MAX)

Ding! Detected that the host has completed the first kill (about to), unlocked the achievement of 'Decisive Kill', and rewarded with 100 B points! "

Current B-value: 429 points! "

Golden Lottery! 429 point installation B value!

Li Fan's heart was pounding.

But he quickly calmed down and looked at Zhao Tiezhu, who was being pressed under him.

Zhao Tiezhu is not dead yet, but his vital points have been restrained, and with the backlash of the Blood Breaking Pill, he is powerless to resist. He stared fixedly at Li Fan, filled with resentment, fear, and pleading.

Li Fan remained silent for a few seconds.

He knows that this matter cannot be resolved today.

Defeating Zhao Tiezhu in public has already formed a bitter grudge. If he is released, with Zhao Tiezhu's vengeful personality, he will definitely try his best to seek revenge in the future. Although I have a system now, my strength is still weak, and it's easy to dodge the obvious but difficult to defend against hidden arrows.

Besides

Zhao Tiezhu's secret of using human blood for cultivation was publicly exposed by himself, and the rules of the sect will never tolerate him. But Zhao Tiezhu is still an inner disciple, is there any backing behind him? Will the sect, in order to maintain face, suppress things and even sacrifice themselves as a laborer?

Countless thoughts flashed through Li Fan's mind.

Finally, he remembered the nominal disciples who had been beaten and even beaten to death by Zhao Tiezhu in his original owner's memory.

I remembered the undisguised and crazy killing intent that Zhao Tiezhu had when he swallowed the Explosive Blood Pill just now.

In the world of demons, the law of the jungle prevails.

Being soft hearted means being cruel to oneself.

Li Fan's eyes gradually turned cold.

He grabbed Zhao Tiezhu's right hand by the throat and slowly tightened it.

No... don't... "Zhao Tiezhu's throat was hoarse as he begged for mercy, his eyes filled with despair.

Li Fan bent down and whispered in his ear, using a voice that only two people could hear:

In the next life, don't provoke people you shouldn't provoke

Click.

Clear bone cracking sound.

Zhao Tiezhu's body suddenly stiffened, his eyes widened to the limit, and then his pupils dilated.

Breath, cut off.

Li Fansong opened his hand and slowly stood up.

He looked at Zhao Tiezhu's body without much emotion in his heart. Perhaps it is the influence of the Purple Gold Demon Vein, perhaps it is a change in mentality after crossing over, or perhaps it is the inherent rules of this cruel world.

He just feels... a little tired.

All around, there was a complete silence.

All disciples looked at Li Fan with the same eyes as monsters, fearful, reverent, and incredulous.

Li Fan glanced at them without saying a word, bent down and groped around Zhao Tiezhu a few times, and found a small cloth bag - a storage bag, which is a standard equipment for disciples of the Purgatory Sect. The space inside is not large, but there should be something.

He put the storage bag into his arms, then turned around and prepared to leave the shooting range.

But at this moment——

Stop

A sharp shout came from the entrance of the shooting range.

Three people dressed in the attire of inner disciples walked briskly, led by a middle-aged man with a gloomy face and a goatee.

His name is Liu Deacon, responsible for managing the shooting range and nominal disciples, and he is also Zhao Tiezhu's immediate superior.

Upon seeing the body of Zhao Tiezhu on the ground, Steward Liu's face instantly turned pale.

He pointed at Li Fan, his voice trembling with anger: 'You, how dare you kill an inner disciple! You are so brave!'

Li Fan stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Director Liu with a calm expression.

Deacon Liu, Zhao Tiezhu used human blood to practice 'Blood Evil Fist', which violated the rules of the sect. Just now, he even publicly took the Explosive Blood Pill to try to kill me. I was forced to defend myself, what's wrong with that

Fart! "Steward Liu roared," You said he used blood to cultivate. What evidence is there? As for the Blood Explosion Pill... it was clearly committed by you, a lowly servant, who attacked Zhao Tiezhu. B had to take banned drugs to protect himself! As a result, you still hit the killer in pain! "

Two inner disciples behind him also took a step forward, oppressed by the momentum of the day after tomorrow.

Now, kneel down and confess your guilt immediately! Follow me to the court for trial! Otherwise, you will be executed

Deacon Liu's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

Zhao Tiezhu is his person who has helped him with a lot of dirty work over the years. And Zhao Tiezhu knows some of his secrets. Now that Zhao Tiezhu is dead, what if there is any leverage left behind

We must control this laborer as soon as possible, either make him bear all the charges, or... make him shut up forever!

Li Fan looked at the flickering eyes of Director Liu and understood it in his heart.

This is going to confuse right and wrong, kill people to silence them.

He laughed.

Laughing coldly.

Director Liu, are you saying I launched a surprise attack

Li Fan pointed to the disciples around him who had not yet recovered from the shock.

With so many eyes watching, Zhao Tiezhu took action first, swallowed the medicine and exploded, intending to kill me. How could I launch a surprise attack

Deacon Liu sneered, "They are all nominal disciples with low status. What they say can be counted? Who knows if they have been threatened by you

He looked around and said sternly, "Tell me! Did this scoundrel launch a surprise attack on Senior Zhao

The disciples looked at each other with anger but dared not speak.

Mr. Liu has been accumulating power in the shooting range for a long time, and no one dares to offend him.

Li Fan shook his head.

Sure enough, reasoning is useless.

He took a deep breath and looked at Steward Liu, 'So, Steward Liu has made up his mind to frame me?'

So what? "Said Steward Liu in a gloomy tone." Just a lowly servant, kill him. You were lucky enough to kill Zhao Tiezhu. He was careless. Is it possible that you still want to resist

He gave a glance.

Two disciples from the inner sect behind simultaneously attacked Li Fan, one from the left and one from the right!

This time, they learned from Zhao Tiezhu's lesson, did not underestimate the enemy, cooperated tacitly, and blocked all retreat routes for Li Fan!

Li Fan's eyes froze.

The effect of 'Basic Battle Instinct Infusion' has ended, and now he can only rely on the physical body of the Purple Gold Demon Vein and the remaining battle memories from just now.

One on two, both parties are in the middle of the day after tomorrow and are prepared

hard.

But it's not impossible.

Li Fan didn't retreat, but instead rushed towards the person on the left. At the moment when the other person's fist approached him, his body twisted strangely, narrowly avoiding him. At the same time, he pointed his right hand together and pointed towards the other person's armpit!

That person's reaction was not slow, he dodged sideways, but Li Fan's move was just a feint, the real killing move was the left leg sweep that followed closely behind!

Bang!

The person was swept in the calf and stumbled backwards.

But the attack from the person on the right has already arrived!

Li Fan didn't have time to completely dodge, so he had to reluctantly turn sideways and use his shoulder to withstand a punch.

Bang!

A heavy sense of impact came, Li Fan snorted and took two steps back, his shoulders burning with pain.

The body of the Purple Gold Demon Vein is very strong, but it still suffered some minor injuries after a full attack in the mid day after tomorrow.

Sure enough, it's just a bit of brute force, rough skills! "Director Liu saw this and felt relieved. He smirked and said," Let's go together and take him down

Two inner disciples pounced again.

Li Fan gritted his teeth and was about to give it his all.

Suddenly——

Ding! Detected that the host is under siege, meeting the conditions of 'overcoming adversity and installing B'! "

Release instant task: [One person controls the entire venue]

Task content: Defeat or intimidate all attackers, establish authority

Task reward: Based on performance, bronze~silver lottery will be awarded, with a B-value of 200-500 points

Reminder from the system: The host currently has a B value of 429 points, which can be redeemed for 'One time B special effect · Wangba Qi' (consuming 400 points). After release, it will have a strong spiritual deterrent effect on cultivators below the king level, lasting for 3 seconds. Do you want to exchange it? "

Li Fan's eyes lit up.

The domineering aura of a king? It sounds very intimidating!

Exchange

Ding! Spend 400 points to install B value and exchange it for 'One time Install B Effect · Wangba Qi'! "

Use it

Next second.

A terrifying pressure that is indescribable and seems to originate from the depths of the soul, centered around Li Fan, erupted with a loud bang!

That's not the pressure of cultivation, nor the intimidation of killing intent.

But rather a sense of oppression at a higher level of the essence of life! Like ants facing dragons, mortals facing gods!

The two inner disciples who rushed towards Li Fan were the first to bear the brunt.

They feel like their hearts are being held tightly by an invisible big hand! Blood clotting! The soul trembled! An instinctive and irresistible fear instantly overwhelmed all consciousness!

Pluck! Pluck!

The two of them collapsed to the ground, their faces pale and trembling, without even the courage to look up at Li Fan!

And Mr. Liu, the cultivator who will be perfected the day after tomorrow, is not much better either.

His legs were weak, almost kneeling down, his teeth chattering, and his gaze towards Li Fan was filled with terror and despair!

What kind of pressure is this?!

The elders of the Primordial Realm within the sect do not have such a terrifying aura!

Who exactly is this miscellaneous worker?!

Li Fan himself was a bit surprised.

The effect of this' domineering aura 'is even more powerful than he imagined.

He took the opportunity to take a step forward and looked down at Director Liu, who was lying limp on the ground, with a cold voice:

Mr. Liu, do you still think I'm a surprise attack now

Mr. Liu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but under the terrifying pressure, he couldn't even utter a word.

Li Fan bent down and pulled off Liu Deacon's storage bag from his waist, then searched the storage bags from the two inner disciples as well.

After completing these tasks, the 3-second duration of the pressure just ended.

But the three of them, Mr. Liu, were already scared out of their wits and still collapsed on the ground, afraid to move.

Li Fan stood up straight and looked around.

All the disciples looked at him in awe, and many instinctively lowered their heads when they met his gaze.

Li Fan took a deep breath and spoke loudly:

Today's incident is evident to all. Zhao Tiezhu violated the rules of the gate, and Liu, the steward, reversed right and wrong, intending to harm me. I, Li Fan, am just fighting back in self-defense

He paused for a moment, his voice suddenly turning cold:

"From today on, the shooting range is my the final say."

Anyone who disagrees can come forward

No one responded.

Even Zhao Tiezhu in the later stage of the day after tomorrow has died, and Liu, the successful steward the day after tomorrow, has been scared and paralyzed. Who dares to refuse?

Li Fan nodded in satisfaction and looked at Deacon Liu, "Deacon Liu, could you please handle Zhao Tiezhu's body? Also, do you know what to say about today's matter

Deacon Liu nodded in excitement and said, "I know! Zhao Tiezhu used human blood to cultivate and became obsessed, attempting to kill his fellow disciples. He was stopped by Senior Brother Li... no, he unfortunately died in a fierce fight! I saw it with my own eyes

Li Fan smiled and said, "Very good

He ignored everyone and turned around, walking towards the outside of the shooting range.

The steps are calm, and the back is upright.

The sunset stretched his shadow long.

On the shooting range, there was silence.

Until Li Fan's figure disappeared around the corner, everyone dared to breathe heavily.

My goodness... Li Fan... no, Senior Brother Li

It's too scary, the momentum just now

Is he really a laborer? Could it be some big shot pretending to experience life

The shooting range will change in the future

The sound of discussion buzzed out.

Deacon Liu struggled to get up and looked in the direction of Li Fan's departure, his eyes mixed with fear, resentment, but more importantly... deep fear.

He looked down at Zhao Tiezhu's body and gritted his teeth.

Take Zhao Tiezhu's body away and report it according to what was just said

...

After leaving the shooting range, Li Fan did not return to the dilapidated house where the servants lived, but instead found a secluded corner of the back mountain.

He leaned against a large stone and took a long breath.

Too many things happened today.

System activation, bloodline transformation, first time installing B, first time killing, first time... establishing power.

Very tired, but also very exciting.

He touched the four storage bags in his arms - Zhao Tiezhu's, Liu Deacon's, and the two inner disciples'.

System, open the mall and I'll see what I can buy

The light curtain unfolds, and a dazzling list of products appears.

Li Fan directly selects the "100-500 pack B value range".

He currently has a B-value (429-400) installed at 29 o'clock, although it's not much, you can take a look at what cheap goods are available.

List refresh:

[ Healing Powder ]: 10 o'clock (for treating common injuries)

[ Qi Returning Pill ]: 3:00 pm (quickly restore a small amount of true qi)

[ Basic Interest Collection Technique ]: 50 points (hiding breath, unable to see through beyond one's own great realm)

[Swift Steps]: 80 points (Yellow Step Lower Body Technique, increases movement speed)

[Blaze Palm]: 100 points (lower level attack martial arts in the Yellow Rank)

[ Small Gathering Spirit Array Disk ]: 150 points (set up a simple gathering spirit array to improve cultivation speed)

Li Fan was dazzled by the sight.

There are many good things, but what he lacks the most now is actually... cultivation techniques.

He has top-notch qualifications and bloodlines, but his cultivation level is still ordinary, and he doesn't even know the most basic way to introduce qi into his body.

System, is there a suitable technique for me to practice now? Requirements: fast speed, strong power, preferably... B grid should be higher. "

Filtering for host

Recommendation: [Swallowing Heaven Demon Skill (Qi Refining Chapter)], Price: 300 points with B value. "

Skill Description: This is a basic chapter created by an ancient demon master. Its speed of devouring spiritual energy is ten times that of ordinary skills, and the quality of the magical energy cultivated is extremely high. It has the characteristic of 'devouring' and can slowly plunder the opponent's spiritual energy. B-level Evaluation: High (name domineering, effect domineering)

Li Fan's eyes lit up.

Swallowing Heavenly Demon Skill! The name sounds amazing!

But... 300 o'clock, he only has 29 o'clock now.

System, if I were to draw a lottery now, would there be a high probability of winning a good technique

The lottery pool contains all things, with a probability of about 15% for the technique. Bronze lottery mainly focuses on yellow level items, silver lottery mainly focuses on mysterious level items, and gold lottery mainly focuses on earth level items

Li Fan thought for a moment.

He now has one bronze, one silver, and one gold lottery opportunity.

Let's try the bronze lottery first

Ding! Spend Bronze Lottery x 1, start the lottery

The big spinning wheel in my mind spins rapidly and stops after a second.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining: [Cleaning Talisman × 10] (a disposable item that can clean the body and clothing)

Li Fan: "

Although very practical, I always feel like it's almost meaningless.

Silver Lottery

Ding! Spend silver lottery x 1, start the lottery

The turntable rotates again.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining: [Xuantie Heavy Sword] (a low-level treasure of Xuanjie, weighing 300 pounds, with no sharp edge, can be smashed or shot, and has special effects on low-level body protection techniques)

A dark and simple heavy sword appeared in Li Fan's hand.

Heavy and weighty. Li Fan waved twice, creating a fierce momentum. With his current physical strength, using this heavy sword is just right.

Not bad, at least it's not a cleaning talisman, "Li Fan put the heavy sword into the system space (which comes with 1 cubic meter of storage space after system activation), rubbed his hands," Finally... the golden lottery

Ding! Spend gold lottery x 1, start the lottery

The golden wheel appeared and slowly rotated.

Li Fan held his breath.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining: [ Divine Action Variety ] (Medium Rank Body Technique)

Description of martial arts techniques: This is a top-level light skill originating from a certain martial arts world, which has been systematically modified and is suitable for the cultivation world. It is divided into three layers: applying oil to the soles of the feet (small range flickering and moving), gecko climbing walls (flying eaves and walls, short distance stepping), and loach drilling holes (extremely flexible, can shrink bones and shape, penetrate narrow gaps). When practiced to perfection, the body is like a ghost, coming and going like the wind

Li Fan's eyes are bright!

Middle rank body technique! Still a modified martial arts divine skill!

This wave of blood earned!

He is currently attacking physical bodies with the Purple Gold Demon Vein and combat instincts, defending against the Purgatory Gold Body with the Divine Realm (although he has not started practicing yet, he has the foundation), and now he lacks a good body technique!

The ever-changing nature of divine actions perfectly complements the shortcomings!

Learn

Countless profound meanings about the operation of body techniques flooded into Li Fan's mind, and he instantly mastered the first layer of the trick of "applying oil to the soles of his feet".

With a thought in his mind, his steps changed, and he shuttled through the narrow mountains and rocks like a ghost. His speed was more than twice as fast, and his trajectory was erratic and elusive.

Good body technique! "Li Fan was overjoyed.

Now, all we need to do is practice the techniques to officially enter the realm of cultivation.

He looked at the remaining 29 points to install B value, and then looked at the "Swallowing Heaven Demon Skill (Qi Refining Chapter)" in the mall.

We still need 271 points.

We need to find a way to earn some more B value... "Li Fan rubbed his chin." Or, take a look at what's good in the storage bag

He first opened Zhao Tiezhu's storage bag.

The space is not large, about one cubic meter, and there are various things piled up inside:

Several tens of taels of silver, several sets of laundry, a few bottles of low-level healing medicine, a martial arts manual for 'Bloody Fist', and... a small wooden box.

Li Fan opened the wooden box and found three pills the size of longan with a dark red color, emitting a faint bloody aura.

Explosive Blood Pill... "Li Fan recognized it as the banned substance that Zhao Tiezhu had just swallowed.

The side effects are significant, but it can save life or turn the tide at critical moments.

He carefully stored it away.

Then open Mr. Liu's storage bag.

The space is slightly larger, and there are also more things: over 100 taels of silver, a bottle of "Qi Gathering Pill" (an auxiliary cultivation pill suitable for the afterlife), some miscellaneous materials, and an account book.

Li Fan opened the account book and narrowed his eyes.

There are some "grey incomes" recorded above in the shooting range: deducting food subsidies for nominal disciples, reselling low-level medicinal herbs provided by the sect, and even... privately selling "beating quotas" for live targets to some inner sect disciples with special preferences.

Ah, it's really not a good thing, "Li Fan sneered and put away the account book, which might be useful in the future.

Finally, there are storage bags for two inner disciples, nothing special, just some ordinary pills and silver.

After counting the four storage bags, the harvest was still decent: over two hundred taels of silver, some elixirs, a martial arts manual, three blood boosting pills, and a black book.

But... there is no cultivation technique.

The introductory technique of the Purgatory Sect can only be obtained by becoming an outer disciple. Outsiders and nominal disciples are not worthy of cultivation.

Li Fan sighed.

It seems that we still need to rely on installing B values.

He was thinking about where to install another wave of B when the system's prompt suddenly sounded:

Ding! The host has been preliminarily established, and the first phase of the long-term mission 'Rise of Power' has been released

Task content: Establish your own power within the Purgatory Sect, capture at least 10 subordinates, and control the shooting range area

Task reward: Based on completion and power quality, rewards will be given with a B-value of 500-2000 points, and a random draw of 1 will be conducted. "

Task deadline: 7 days

Li Fan's eyes lit up.

Controlling the shooting range and subduing subordinates... doesn't this task seem difficult?

Today he stood tall at the shooting range and has already established a preliminary reputation. Mr. Liu was scared out of his wits and temporarily dared not make any mistakes. Those nominal disciples are even more reverent.

Just a little operation

Li Fan stood up, patted the dust on his body, and looked into the depths of the Purgatory Sect.

Let's start with the shooting range first

When I have power and earn enough to play B-value, I can exchange it for 'Swallowing Heaven Demon Skill'

A glimmer of expectation flashed in his eyes.

This demon world should also hear my name Li Fan

sundowners.

Li Fan's figure disappeared at the end of the winding mountain road.

And the night of the Purgatory Sect has just begun.
