"…"
In the eerily silent alley, as Fang Li made his declaration, and with the pervasive murderous aura spreading, Nanaya Shiki slowly tightened his grip on the knife. His eyes turned cruel as he looked at Fang Li.
Under the stifling, suffocating aura, it's hard to believe that even a pack of wolves would run away if they were present. This was the existence known as the Murdering Demon, an ultimate weapon trained solely for the purpose of killing.
Although Fang Li excelled in comprehending the nature of death in all things, even capable of using Mystic Eyes of Death Perception with great finesse, Nanaya Shiki had grown up with the sole purpose of killing from a young age, making him purer in this regard than Fang Li.
So, Nanaya Shiki's murderous aura was like a razor-sharp blade edge, pressing firmly against Fang Li's skin.
Fang Li withstood this aura, and he slowly gripped the crescent-like dagger in his hand.
He didn't use the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, nor did he assume any particular stance. Fang Li stood there casually, not even tapping into the Prana within his body, his gaze unwavering.
This seemingly nonchalant behavior seemed to provoke the simulated opponent.
"Snap…"
In the next moment, with a slight sound of his foot landing, Nanaya Shiki's figure abruptly vanished.
No, it didn't vanish.
Instead, at an astonishing speed, like a bat dissolving into the darkness, he suddenly leaped forward.
In an instant, he landed right in front of Fang Li.
"Clang…"
A somewhat glaring arc of light flickered on the blade's edge.
"Heh…"
The Murdering Demon in the dark night emitted a delighted hunting sound.
Shortly thereafter, that sharp blade violently rose, transforming into a blade of light. It was as if lightning, a high-speed slash that was beyond the comprehension of an ordinary person's vision. To Fang Li, it couldn't have been more familiar.
"Flashing Scabbard-Seven Nights!"
The technique from Nanaya Assassination, renowned for its speed, was like a moon arc appearing suddenly in the dark night. It carried a cold arc of light and slashed fiercely towards Fang Li.
In the past, when Fang Li began learning the Nanaya Assassination Technique, he had died more than once under this slash.
However, facing this potentially lethal attack this time, Fang Li remained calm. He extended his hand toward the incoming slash.
"Flashing Scabbard-One Wind!"
A ferocious grab pierced the chilly arc of light. With a series of sharp impacts, Fang Li's hand caught the slash of the Murdering Demon, who had swung with God-like Speed.
"Flashing Scabbard- Swift Wind!"
Like a gale, Fang Li's swift counter-slash pierced through the dark realm. With a series of "Chii" sounds, it moved at a terrifying speed from the bottom to the top, as if flicking upward. It carried a chilly blade aura and violently cut.
"Puchi—!"
The sound of a physical body being cut open resonated clearly in the narrow alley.
"Ah!" Nanaya Shiki let out a piercing cry.
The unavoidable strike had gruesomely cleaved Nanaya Shiki's entire body into two. It extended from his left side to his right shoulder, leaving behind a terrifying and ghastly wound.
A vast amount of fresh blood poured down, staining the ground of the alley like a head opened wide of the Water Dragon.
In this situation, Nanaya Shiki could only widen his eyes, staring at Fang Li with an incredulous look on his face.
Soon after, he slowly fell to the ground.
And with that, the battle came to an end.
The entire process took less than a second.
"Swoosh…"
The surroundings blurred once more, and the dim alley disappeared as it reverted to its sealed-off state.
Standing in the center of the training field, Fang Li's lips curled into a gradually widening smile. Eventually, his expression was filled with excitement.
Insta-kill!
Moreover, he achieved this insta-kill against the formidable opponent Nanaya Shiki!
What did this mean?
It meant that Fang Li had finally surpassed the best Murdering Demon of the Nanaya Clan in the Nanaya Assassination Technique!
With identical physical abilities, Fang Li managed to achieve this, demonstrating how great his progress was in terms of skills.
"In these six months in Jie Long Seventh Institute, my time was not wasted."
With the martial arts expertise of a grandmaster like Fan Xinglou, combined with the core of the Nanaya Assassination Technique and combat skills gathered over centuries, Fang Li's progress was remarkably fast.
"In this way, my combat style has finally taken shape."
In the world of TYPE-MOON, Tohno Shiki was almost unbeatable with the Nanaya Assassination Technique's basic self-defense techniques and the power of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
However, Fang Li had mastered the complete Nanaya Assassination Technique and exceeded Tohno Shiki in the capabilities of Mystic Eyes. With both combined, the result was bound to be terrifying.
Furthermore, Fang Li was a Genestellar, endowed with the power of Prana.
From now on, Fang Li would be a fearsome Murdering Demon as well.
"Of course, it doesn't end here."
After all, Fang Li hadn't completed the trial tower yet.
So, without further ado, Fang Li turned and left the training ground he had rented for 1000 Exchange Points less than ten minutes ago. He headed directly to the trial tower.
Over the next few days, Fang Li didn't return to the training field but kept challenging the trial tower.
According to the public information available in the Main God's Dimension, Main Divine Envoys from the Fourth Rank could begin their trials from the 20th floor, continuing up to the 40th floor.
Main Divine Envoys who reached the 40th floor were considered to have pushed the limits of the Fourth Rank. Advancing further would mean entering the Third Rank domain.
In theory, Fang Li, a recent Fourth-Rank main Divine Envoy with top-grade equipment, class power, and 60 free attribute points, might only progress five floors at most, reaching approximately the 25th floor.
However, Fang Li's performance could have astounded everyone if they had known it.
On the first day, he reached the 23rd floor.
On the third day, he was already on the 24th floor.
By the fifth day, Fang Li had advanced to the 25th floor.
On the seventh day, he made it to the 27th floor.
And by the tenth day, Fang Li had already reached the 28th floor.
In this process, not only did Fang Li gain an additional 20 attribute points, but he also broke through the 100,000 Exchange Points mark again, a true marvel!
With the allocation of all 60 free attribute points, Fang Li increased his attributes by 80 points, essentially filling nearly half of his Fourth-Rank attribute potential in just over ten days.
As mentioned before, leveling up led to immense progress for Fang Li.
His advancement was nothing short of breathtaking!
