Becoming a Saint Starts with Copying Martial Arts

Chapter 132 Kill Ao Xiong

Chapter 133 Kill Ao Xiong

"A third type of Qi?" Ao Xiong was shocked. He thought that two types of Qi were already abnormal enough, but he did not expect there to be a third type.

Each type of qi has a different effect. A martial artist can adjust different qi to fight the enemy according to the situation, which will give them a huge advantage.

"This person possesses multiple types of internal energy, each with drastically different effects. Either his physique is special, or his cultivation method is unique. If it's the latter, I will definitely snatch it and see what kind of martial art can have such miraculous effects!"

Ao Xiong had a sudden thought and unleashed a slash from afar. Flames swirled on the blade, and true energy surged forth, condensing into an arc-shaped blade aura that swept across the sky, heading straight for Lin Qing.

Lin Qing's arm injury was almost healed, and a green aura rose from his body. Suddenly, he dodged the flaming blade.

boom!

A deafening roar came from behind him; the blade's energy struck an abandoned wooden house, causing it to explode and flames shooting into the sky.

Lin Qing's heart also stirred slightly. He thought to himself that no True Yuan Realm martial artist should be underestimated, even if they were old. The destructive power of True Qi was too astonishing. Just now, that sword energy strike could have instantly killed any True Gang Realm martial artist. Even Lin Qing couldn't withstand it.

Ao Xiong missed with his first strike, then swung his sword repeatedly, unleashing nine consecutive slashes, nine arc-shaped flame blades hurtling towards Lin Qing from different directions.

Lin Qing continued to urge the Qingfeng Gang Qi to strengthen himself, swaying left and right, dodging and weaving, creating gusts of wind.

Several blades of energy grazed past him, but he managed to dodge them in time.

Boom boom boom!

With a series of booming explosions, many houses in the vicinity were hit by the blade energy, causing violent explosions and turning to ashes in the flames.

Lin Qing glanced around, and in an instant, a sea of ​​fire appeared around him.

"True Yuan martial artists are terrifying. If their true energy is not exhausted, they are difficult to defeat even if there are thousands of people, and even if there are ten thousand men, they cannot withstand them."

Lin Qing thought to himself, "Thank goodness I have the Qingfeng Gang Qi to protect me. Otherwise, even with my lightning-fast movements, I wouldn't be able to dodge it. This sword energy is just too fast."

At this moment, Ao Xiong also abandoned this method of attack. Every time he unleashed a blade of energy, a large amount of true energy would be lost from his body.

Now, after a battle, his internal energy reserves have dropped to less than 30%.

Once his true energy is exhausted, he is no match for Lin Qing with just his physical body.

At this moment, Lin Qing also noticed this scene, and suddenly his figure flashed, and he pounced on him again.

With the aid of a gentle breeze and powerful energy, his body moved as gracefully as the wind and as agile as a ghost. In an instant, he approached and struck Ao Xiong's head with a palm.

Ao Xiong swung his sword, and Lin Qing immediately reached out, his body swaying as he moved to the other side and attacked again.

Ao Xiong immediately sheathed his sword to parry, but Lin Qing was faster, reaching out and grabbing Ao Xiong's right wrist.

"not good!"

Ao Xiong was startled and tried to break free, but he felt Lin Qing's hand gripping his arm like an iron clamp, making it impossible for him to break free.

Lin Qing twisted the arm forcefully, causing Ao Xiong's arm to flip at an odd angle, and the knife in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.

Taking advantage of the situation, Lin Qing delivered a knee strike to Ao Xiong's lower abdomen. In that instant, he transformed his Qingfeng Gangqi into Tathagata Gangqi, greatly increasing the power of his punches and kicks.

Ao Xiong's protective inner energy suddenly collapsed, his body arched up, and he felt excruciating pain in his internal organs.

"Prepare to die!"

Lin Qing raised his hand and struck again, his palm surrounded by a water-blue aura. This was another type of qi called Ice Heart Qi, which could freeze the human body, damage the internal organs, and greatly reduce or even stop the flow of qi and blood.

Ao Xiong was out of balance and had no time to dodge. He was struck in the chest by a palm, and the Ice Heart Qi rushed into his body. A layer of white frost suddenly covered his body. He staggered backward and spat out a mouthful of blood. After he fell to the ground, ice shards could be clearly seen in the blood. This was a sign that the Qi had penetrated deep into his internal organs.

At this moment, Ao Xiong was in a sorry state, his eyes filled with fear and horror.

Lin Qing switched between three types of Qi in a very short time, unleashing a barrage of attacks that left him completely powerless to resist. He didn't even have time to mobilize his true Qi. He had never seen such a fighting style before, nor had he ever seen a True Qi Realm martial artist with such powerful combat strength.

Suddenly, his pupils contracted as he saw Lin Qing flick his toes, and the knife that had fallen to the ground was lifted into the air and firmly caught in his hand.

Then, Lin Qing flashed forward and swung his sword to strike.

At the critical moment, a ball of crimson energy rose up around Ao Xiong, swirling around him and condensing into a protective energy shield.

The blade struck the air shield fiercely, but failed to break through it. However, the shield's light visibly dimmed, as if it would shatter at any moment.

Lin Qing swung his sword repeatedly, unleashing seven strikes in a flash. The qi shield finally couldn't withstand the blow and shattered with a crash.

"The ninth strike!"

With a low shout, Lin Qing unleashed a fifth type of qi, purple qi wrapped around the blade, called Purple Thunder Qi, which could increase the speed of his sword strikes and punches several times over.

The slash came down like a bolt from the blue. Ao Xiong's vision went black, his head was severed, and his body crashed to the ground.

Lin Qing let out a long breath and glanced at the knife in his hand. The blade was as thin as a cicada's wing, yet indestructible, and its edge was extremely sharp. It had severed Ao Xiong's head without leaving a trace of blood, truly killing without drawing blood.

"What a fine knife!"

Lin Qing sighed, stepped forward and removed the scabbard from Ao Xiong's corpse. After searching for a while, he only found about ten silver notes, totaling 1,300 taels of silver.

He sheathed his sword, placed his hand on Ao Xiong's corpse, and a crimson aura swirled in his palm, transforming into a ball of raging fire that suddenly engulfed Ao Xiong's body. Within seven or eight breaths, the corpse had turned to ashes.

At the same time, a new soul appeared in the Record of Rebirth, which came from Ao Xiong.

"This operation was very successful!" Lin Qing thought to himself.

The four assassins, Ao Ziyi, Ao Xiong, and Ao Ziyi, can acquire a total of six martial arts skills, as well as a treasured sword.

"Let's leave here first, and sort things out slowly when we get back!" Lin Qing once again activated his Qingfeng Gangqi and used his lightness skill to quickly leave.

As the rain gradually subsided, the fire in this old residential area was quickly extinguished, leaving only ruins.

After a while, a group of constables arrived nearby, led by Wang Ling and Qiu Changming.

"Ao Xiong is dead." Qiu Changming's gaze sharpened as he saw Ao Xiong's head on the ground.

Wang Ling remained silent, pacing around the area, carefully observing every detail of the fight. A short while later, he returned to Qiu Changming's side and said coldly, "The one who attacked wasn't Deng Qianyu and her two companions, but another martial artist we've never seen before. Perhaps there are others involved. We're too late!"

"Ao Xiong's whereabouts were leaked, and he was ambushed and killed. He was too careless. This matter must be thoroughly investigated, otherwise, where will the reputation of my Soul Suppression Division be?" A hint of anger flashed in Qiu Changming's eyes.

"Ao Xiong is a very strange person. I have always suspected that he is secretly colluding with the Yin Yuan Sect, but I have not been able to expose him due to insufficient evidence. Now it seems that I may have misunderstood," Wang Ling said suddenly.

"Lord Wang, we can't make wild guesses. The most urgent thing is to catch the murderer as soon as possible!" Qiu Changming said.

"I'll go after them, you all hurry up and catch up!" Wang Ling said, then used his lightness skill to quickly leave.

Qiu Changming watched his retreating figure and shook his head slightly. In this awful weather, catching the murderer would be as difficult as climbing to heaven, and this matter would most likely end without any resolution.
