Chapter 25: Chapter 25: All Must Die

The divine skill of Frenzy unleashed, causing a drastic shift in momentum.

The Dragon and Elephant Void Scripture whirled within Qin Ze's dantian like a rapidly spinning top, blasting forth the essence of dragons and elephants.

This was what it meant to exude overwhelming presence; Qin Ze embodied it now. Findd new stories at novelhall.com

With two fists thrusting out, a cloud of dust erupted around them, making Qin Kun feel as if the end was upon him. Gritting his teeth, he struggled to meet the attack head-on.

"Roar..."

A deafening boom echoed through the night sky.

Under the dark canopy, birds took flight in alarm, and the forest grew oppressively still. The five outer disciples surrounding the burly man stared blankly at Qin Ze...

The burly man was deeply shocked, never expecting Qin Ze to wield the divine skill of a beastial demon, let alone one that doubled in power. A huge question mark formed in his mind: Who was this person? How could he unleash the divine skill comprehended by beastial demons?

Having cultivated martial arts for decades, he knew all too well the might of divine skills and the arduousness of comprehending them. Even with his vast experiences, he couldn't fathom how Qin Ze had managed to grasp the divine skill of a beastial demon.

The intense shock kept pounding against his heart, building up until it became a raging sea, churning violently.

"Huff... Huff... Huff..."

Qin Ze panted slightly, secretly marveling at the absurdity of Frenzy.

He had unleashed the skill, depleting more than half of his qi reserves. Such a technique demanded immense qi to sustain, and Qin Ze had felt it as he released it.

However, Qin Kun had escaped in the training grounds before; this time, Qin Ze wouldn't give him another chance.

Death was inevitable.

Lying on the ground, Qin Kun was consumed by despair. He never imagined that even after taking the Pill of Blazing Sun, he would still be no match for Qin Ze. That last blow had shattered his internal organs, and unless he consumed a superior pill for cultivating the foundation, he had little chance of survival.

"I have a question for you. What exactly is our enmity? Why does your father insist on killing me?" Qin Ze was puzzled, a question that had plagued him for a long time. He searched his memories in vain, unable to recall any offense he had committed against Qin Xiangtian.

He couldn't comprehend how such deep hatred could exist between members of the same clan, driving them to such lengths to eliminate each other.

Qin Kun's pained laughter echoed coldly, "Ha... ha..."

The laughter intensified, causing him to cough violently, spitting out blood as he glared darkly at Qin Ze. "Want to... know why? Ha... ha... Because you're a disgrace to the Qin family, always bringing shame wherever you go, ha... ha..."

Qin Ze's lips curled into a faint smile as he stepped on Qin Kun's chest, leaning down to whisper softly in his ear, "Rest assured, your father will come looking for you soon..."

With that, Qin Ze pressed down with all his might, causing a series of cracking sounds as Qin Kun's ribcage shattered. Qin Kun's eyes widened, a look of agony etched on his face.

His body convulsed a few times before going rigid...

Dead.

For this single crystal core, they had lost twelve of their brothers.

He felt immense guilt, which was why, after unleashing his Condensed Qi into Weapons to severely injure the Golden-Rigid Ape, he had smiled and awaited death, believing it to be the only way to redeem himself.

But Yun Man had saved him. Now, as he gazed upon the crystal core once more, his eyes were filled with self-reproach.

"The crystal core, from a fifth-rank beastial demon... ha-ha..." Qin Kun swallowed hard, his eyes gleaming with greed, completely consumed by excitement.

The fifth-tier crystal core could propel him to the Realm of Spirit Condensation within just three years. By then, at the tender age of nineteen, Qin Ze would shock not only Qinghe City but the entire Da Li Dynasty.

"Give it to me, quickly!" Qin Kun's excitement bordered on maniacal as he watched Qin Ze approach, suddenly shouting, "Stop, stop there! Throw it to me, now, throw it!"

Qin Ze took a couple more steps forward, now within thirty meters of Qin Yang. This distance, he could cover in half a second... half a second...

He shifted his weight slightly, planting his right foot firmly and leaning forward. With Qin Kun's eyes locked on him and the steel blade pressed against Yun Man's throat, Qin Ze halted, smiled at Qin Kun, and then gently tossed the crystal core into the air...

Qin Kun's gaze was immediately drawn to the shimmering crystal core in the night.

Simultaneously, Qin Ze roared, "Die!"

His legs propelling him forward like unleashed steeds, he charged at an incredible speed.

Qin Kun felt a gust of wind slam into him, startling him. He tried to swing his blade, but found it immobilized.

The tip of the blade was pinched between two fingers. Qin Ze looked at Yun Man calmly and said, "Close your eyes, it'll be over soon."

Yun Man obeyed like a well-behaved child, closing her eyes and feeling a warmth rise within her, as if grasping a lifesaver in the middle of a raging ocean.

"I told you, you'd die miserably, very miserably."

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. With one hand gripping the blade and the other clamping down on Qin Kun's right arm, Qin Ze exerted a tremendous force. "Crack, crack..."

Qin Kun's right arm bones shattered, his face turning pale as he let out a howl, his left hand summoning all his strength to strike Yun Man's back...

"Looking for death."

As Qin Ze disabled Qin Kun's right arm, he pulled Yun Man into his embrace and countered with a single palm. The veins in his arm bulged, and powerful qi condensed into a fierce strike that met Qin Kun's left palm head-on.

"Snap!"

Qin Kun's left arm bone burst out of his shoulder socket, spurting blood in all directions.

A piercing scream erupted from Qin Kun's lips, his eyes rolling back in agony.

Without giving Qin Kun any chance to react, Qin Ze swiftly flipped the long knife in his right hand, gripping the hilt firmly, and delivered a fierce downward strike.

Qin Kun's body was cleaved in two, ending his life instantly.

"Sin Value +1, current Sin Value: 7..."
