"Hao Tan, right?"
Finally, Hao Tan waited until the killer with the silver mask in front of him spoke.
The other party's voice was extremely cold, as terrifying as if the King of Hell was calling his name.
And without waiting for Hao Tan's response, he continued talking, as if he was sure of Hao Tan's identity, and the questioning was just to prepare him for death.
"Are you ready to die?"
"Uh hehe..." Hao Tan sneered awkwardly after hearing this. Although he was very confident in his own strength, he thought that even if he couldn't defeat the Skynet killer in front of him, he should be able to escape unscathed. After all, the opponent, as a killer, appeared in front of him. In front of him, the opportunity has been lost.
But for some reason, there was still a trace of nervousness in his voice: "When... did Skynet's killers become so upright? Silver medal killers, only killers who have killed acquired extreme masters can get the silver mask, but Assassination and head-on confrontation are never the same thing. If you hide in the dark and plot against me, you might be able to succeed, but you chose to stop me in the street, are you looking down on me?"
At this moment, Hao Tan is more willing to believe that the legends about the Skynet killer are spread through false rumors and spread more and more evil.
Because then he would have a chance to live.
To be honest, he didn't even see clearly how the other party appeared in front of him just now.
If the other party had made a sneak attack, he might be in a rage by now.
However, the opponent chose to confront him head-on. He must be quite confident in his own strength, right?
This is his opportunity and he must seize it.
His question at this moment was to test the depth of the other party, because he could not see any information from the other party that could judge the strength.
However, the man with the silver mask in front of him ignored his question and just continued what he had said before.
"Are you ready? Your time has come."
"!"
Hearing these words that sounded like judgment, Hao Tan's nerves suddenly became tense.
He focused all his attention on the killer in front of him, and secretly mobilized his internal strength, always preparing to deal with the opponent's attack and launch a counterattack.
However, he didn't know that the face under the silver mask looked at him so nervously, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly, that was a smile.
The next moment, a scene that shocked Hao Tan happened.
If he hadn't locked onto the opponent's figure with all his concentration, he would have thought he had seen it wrong.
The silver-masked man in front of him turned into two afterimages like clones, quickly approaching him.
This is because the speed of the man in front of him is so fast that he can't see clearly clearly, so everything looks so erratic.
"What a terrifying speed..."
Surprised, Hao Tan couldn't think anymore. He raised his leg and used his proud leg skills to attack crazily at the afterimage that he could barely catch with his naked eyes.
Bang bang bang——
The sound of breaking through the air continued with his kicking movements, and countless leg shadows rushed toward the silver-masked killer.
However, the next moment, what sounded was Hao Tan's own scream.
Click——
"ah--"
His eyes widened in pain, and there was severe pain in his legs, as well as the sound of bones breaking.
His leg did hit the target, but it was like kicking an iron plate.
The next moment, Hao Tan was knocked back by a huge force and flew backwards, hitting the wall on the side of the street.
The man in the silver mask stopped and his figure became clear again. He looked at Hao Tan with some disappointment and commented lightly: "The speed of the kick is okay, but the strength is too weak."
In that lightning-fast moment, the man in the silver mask easily caught Hao Tan's kick, which was so fast that it left an afterimage, and launched an attack on the fragile joints of the leg.
In other words, his overall speed is faster than Hao Tanqi
The speed of his legs was more than a little faster.
"snort."
Hao Tan snorted with a ferocious face when he heard this. Stand up holding on to the wall.
"I admit that you are faster and stronger than me, but you are still a little short of trying to kill me just because of that."
From the brief confrontation just now, he judged that the killer was much faster than himself and had strong finger strength.
Yes, the opponent did not use any internal force in the blow just now, but used his hands to form claws, which easily broke through the zhenqi defense wrapped around his legs.
There is no doubt that the killer in front of him must be a master of external martial arts, and he is also a master of external martial arts such as eagle grasping technique.
Although the opponent was indeed very strong, after understanding the opponent's tactics, Hao Tanfei was not so afraid.
His little injury was nothing.
But the other party is truly at the end of his rope.
As a killer, not only did he not choose a sneak attack, but he also found out the martial arts methods of the target. Isn't this a dead end?
Thinking of this, Hao Tan was even a little happy.
However, before Hao Tan could be happy for long, the next moment, the actions and words of the silver-masked killer made his nerves tense again.
"Do you really think so?"
It was a mocking voice with an extremely playful tone.
The words fell.
The figure of the killer wearing a silver mask in front of him became blurry again, and his whole person turned into an afterimage.
And this time... faster than before!
Seeing this, Hao Tan's pupils suddenly shrank.
He realized that the killer in front of him had shown mercy just now!
"Damn..."
Hao Tan felt a pang in his heart, angry and anxious.
How can any killer go out of his way to show mercy to his target when assassinating him? ? Is this person really here to assassinate, not to tease me? ?
"Damn you, even if it means losing my life, I will fight you today, watch your moves!"
With that said, Hao Tanyun gathered all his energy and prepared to use his trump card.
This move has extremely side effects, and he would not use it unless absolutely necessary.
"Soul-destroying claw!"
I saw strange infuriating energy gathering on Hao Tancheng's clawed hands, attacking towards the oncoming silver-masked killer at an extremely terrifying speed.
This is why Hao Tan is not afraid of techniques such as Eagle Claw Kung Fu. After all, he himself also practices Claw Kung Fu, and it is also a superior internal skill and mental method. It is infinitely stronger than the external skills, so how can he be afraid? !
However, facing the so-called 'soul-killing claw', the eyes exposed under the oncoming silver-masked killer's mask remained calm, as if he had expected the opponent to have this move, and his movements did not stop at all and continued to face him. And up.
Hao Tan felt happy when he saw this. Of course he knew the reason why the other party was so confident.
After all, although his soul-destroying claw is extremely fast, it is still much slower than his opponent's, and it is impossible to hit it under normal circumstances.
However, what he really relied on was never the soul-destroying claw itself!
"You've fallen into a trap!"
As the two approached, suddenly, the strange black energy on Hao Tan's claws turned into threads and wrapped around the attacking hands of the silver-masked killer.
This is the most difficult part of his Soul-Destroying Claw, its accompanying ability - Soul-Destroying Silk.
"Hahaha! Where can you run now!? If you are entangled in my soul-destroying silk thread, no matter how fast you are, it will be useless! Without internal strength, you cannot resist me! Just wait to die!"
"Oh, is it so?"
"Forehead……!?"
Not long after Hao Cigan was happy, his eyes became dull.
The two people passed each other, and Hao Tan's figure paused suddenly like a puppet that had lost its strings, and then fell down helplessly.
Until his death, Hao Tan was still wondering about the lightning flash just now.
What happened between the stones.
Because he didn't see anything clearly.
It was a small flash of black light, a black light that seemed to be able to swallow all life.
The silver-masked killer stood behind the fallen Hao Tan without looking back. He raised his hand to observe the energy remaining in his hand and felt a sigh of relief.
"Internal strength, it's such an enviable thing. If I didn't have the backup plan, it would be really difficult."
This killer with a silver mask was naturally Qin Yu who was out training.
Sun Haoran told him that the best way to gain experience is to fight, and fight to the death.
But it's not that easy to always find someone who can fight to the death with you, and you can't kill innocent people indiscriminately just to train yourself.
So he chose to become a Skynet assassin on the external network, and specifically looked for rewards from powerful and evil villains.
In Skynet, his killer code name is Meteor, a silver medal killer who makes some acquired masters who do evil things fearful.
Today's Hao Tan is one of his chosen training targets, a master whose internal strength has almost reached the ultimate level of acquired skills.
Speaking of which, this is not a completely fair and just battle. After all, when accepting the reward, you will get information about the target, which includes the martial arts that Hao Tan is good at.
He was able to win so easily because he had the opportunity to know himself and the enemy.
Hao Tan was waiting for him with the soul-killing silk, and he also hid Yu's sword, but Hao Tan didn't know anything about him.
"My current strength can be considered to have truly reached the late acquired stage, right?"
Qin Yu assessed his own strength.
The cultivation realm of external skills cannot be divided in detail. After all, there is no internal strength, it is just exercising the body. Therefore, few people can accurately judge the specific strength of an external skills master. They can only know that the other person is very strong through various characteristics.
And now, he can defeat the ultimate acquired master by knowing himself and his enemy, and his strength should be at least in the late acquired realm.
After confirming his realm, Qin Yu felt excited.
Because Sun Haoran once told him that after reaching the ultimate level, he might be able to withstand the pressure of solving the Dantian problem.
Just one step away.
It has been eight years since cultivation.
Qin Yu has grown from an immature eight-year-old child to a top external martial arts master who is considered the number one figure in the world.
He's now just one step away from achieving a goal he's had for years, and how's that not exciting?
"It's time to go back."
After the excitement, Qin Yu shook his head slightly to calm down.
He placed Hao Tan's head in the small black box where he submitted the task, and then the whole person blended into the shadows and disappeared.
When Qin Yu appeared again, he had changed his outfit and his body shape had also changed.
That was the "Shape-Changing" technique that he learned when he was learning about medicine. Simply put, it was bone-shrinking and disguise. He could change his height, appearance, etc., even his voice.
A roar of eagles echoed across the sky.
It was Xiao Hei who came to pick up Qin Yu.
After seeing Xiao Hei flying at low altitude, Qin Yu smiled slightly, stepped up from the ground, and landed on Xiao Hei's back.
The figure of a man and an eagle streaked across the sky like a shooting star, and finally disappeared completely into the boundless night.
············
Two months later, it was Qin Yu's birthday.
On this day, the East Palace of Yanjing Town was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.
It was obviously still very early in the morning, and the streets outside the palace were already busy with traffic.
The wealthy businessmen, nobles, princes and grandsons of the entire Chu Dynasty came to congratulate each other early and walked into the palace with congratulatory gifts and invitations.
The coming-of-age ceremony for the crown prince of Zhendong Prince is a great gift to the three counties of the Eastern Region under the control of Prince Zhendong, and even to the entire Chu Dynasty.
It was a festive event for everyone, and even the emperor of the Chu Dynasty might come to congratulate him in person. Because the emperor had come once before when Qin Yu's eldest brother Qin Feng had an adult ceremony.
But these are not important to Qin Yu.
Qin Yu is very happy today.
Because this is the neatest their home has been in so many years.
Since he went to Yunwu Villa, he rarely saw his father and two brothers. But today, everyone was gathered together, and the family was enjoying themselves.
Nothing is more important to Qin Yu than this.
However, compared to when I was a child, now that I have grown up, I still have to abide by some royal etiquette.
"My son, I pay homage to my father."
In Qin De's room, the three brothers Qin Yu, Qin Feng, and Qin Zheng all came here early to pay their respects to their father with smiles on their faces.
"Hahaha, okay, everyone, get up."
Qin De felt relieved when he saw the three brothers gathered in front of him.
His three sons are all talented people.
The eldest son Qin Feng entered martial arts and is now not only a general in the army, but also became an innate master last year.
There are only a hundred innate masters in the entire Chu Dynasty. Being able to become an innate master at the age of twenty-three is considered extremely prestigious and has spread far and wide.
Although the second son Qin Zheng is not as talented as his eldest brother in martial arts, he is already more proficient than him in some aspects of governance. Nowadays, the second son is in charge of most of the affairs of the three counties in the Eastern Region.
What surprised him the most was his third son Qin Yu.
Originally, he thought that his third son could only live a normal life as an ordinary person, but he did not expect that in such a short few years, he would become a master in the acquired realm.
Thinking of this, Qin De couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
We all know that practicing external skills must go through unbearable training for ordinary people, but no matter how hard we try, we can only stop at the acquired perfection.
However, his third son's Dantian problem was born, and even the immortals could not do anything about it, which is really a pity. Otherwise, even if the internal strength talent is not good, with such hard work, talent may not be out of reach.
