I hacked through the chaotic world with my blade

"Brother Cui, what's wrong?"

The martial arts school trainees saw Brother Cui stand up with a heavy expression, looking into the distance, and they didn't know what was happening.

They were still immersed in the joy of becoming stronger in the future.

"A terrifying figure is coming."

Hearing these words.

Everyone's faces instantly changed. In their hearts, Brother Cui was very formidable, so if even he said a terrifying figure was coming, it must be incredibly terrifying.

In the darkness.

A figure approached slowly, neither hurried nor slow.

Everyone focused their gaze, seeing the figure was obviously human.

Could it be a zombie?

But it was somewhat different from what they imagined. If it were a zombie, it would definitely make a low groaning sound, but there was no sound at all now.

Soon, the figure appeared in front of them, and the faint light of the bonfire illuminated the figure.

Zombies...

No mistake, it was a zombie, looking like an ordinary one.

However, this ordinary zombie gave off a strange feeling, a bit sly, tilting its head and showing a chilling smile.

Damn...

Seeing this, they already knew this was far from an ordinary zombie; there must be something wrong.

"A strange zombie."

Cui Xiaofei narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the figure. Just as he was observing the zombie, suddenly, the zombie rushed at him swiftly, turning into a blur.

"Huh?"

Slosh!

Cui Xiaofei looked down at his empty right arm, blood gushing from the wound.

"Such speed."

The trainees watched Brother Cui with concern. The zombie appeared out of nowhere and attacked without a word, cutting off Brother Cui's arm. The scene genuinely shocked them.

Cui Xiaofei frowned slightly; the severed wound moved, growing a new arm.

He turned to look at the mysterious zombie in the distance.

The zombie held the arm, its face showing a sinister smile, biting into the arm with a crunch, then spat the flesh out as if disgusted by how it tasted.

Tossing the arm aside indifferently.

"Roar"

It roared at Cui Xiaofei.

"An impressive zombie. Your genes must be incredibly strong then." A hint of excitement appeared in Cui Xiaofei's eyes. After becoming a Mutant, he walked further down this path and knew better than anyone the importance of enhancing genes.

He could clearly sense changes in his own genes.

This couldn't be explained by science.

It might be the unique inner vision ability resulting from his blending of zombie genes.

If one were to describe it as gene unlocking.

He had already unlocked it three times.

Neither ordinary people nor Awakeners could unlock genes; perhaps only by fusing zombie genes and reaching a mixed stage could one unlock genes.

After the third gene unlocking, he could clearly feel his own changes. When he truly released this power, his form would change.

He was unwilling to call this form an aberration, believing instead it was his original body unable to withstand such fearsome power, thus enhancing and transforming itself.

The mysterious zombie saw Cui Xiaofei regrow his arm, showing a look of surprise. With a bang, the ground suddenly cracked, and it turned into a streak of light, rushing in, intending to pierce Cui Xiaofei's chest with its five fingers.

Clack!

The mysterious zombie's five fingers were just centimeters from his chest when he caught the wrist.

"You really are strong, but don't push it too far."

Cui Xiaofei shouted angrily, startling the mysterious zombie, which showed a curious look. With a crack, Cui Xiaofei crushed the mysterious zombie's wrist, making it stagger backward from the injury.

Staring at the crushed, bloody mess of a wrist, as if unable to accept it, it patted the dangling hand, which now had no feeling.

The mysterious zombie's expression gradually turned cold. With the other hand, it quickly severed the injured hand and then regrew a new hand.

In the eyes of the watching trainees, this was simply a battle between monsters.

Both severed arms, and severed hands could regrow.

It was incredibly terrifying.

They were all thinking, could they possibly have this ability too?

Just as they were thinking.

The intense battle had already erupted in front of them.

They couldn't see the two figures at all, only hearing the loud clashes, each collision producing terrifying impacts.

Although they were merely bystanders.

They were filled with excitement all the same.

"Terrifying, really terrifying, so this is Brother Cui's strength."

"And that zombie is also terrifying, okay? A zombie that looks no different from a human is truly that powerful?"

"If ordinary people encountered such a zombie, wouldn't they be doomed?"

"Not just doomed, they'd be dead before they knew it."

While they were having a heated discussion.

The situation on the scene changed.

In their eyes, Brother Cui let out a low growl, his signature flesh wings unfolding from his back, the raging aura causing their hearts to tremble.

Slosh!

The mysterious zombie looked down at its pierced abdomen, showing an incredulous expression, as if it hadn't expected... it would end up like this.

"Surprised?"

Cui Xiaofei's voice reached the mysterious zombie's ears. Before it could react, with a slosh, his hand covered the zombie's head. With a fierce squeeze, the zombie's head exploded like a watermelon, crimson viscous fluid flowing between his fingers.
