NOVEL NEXT Chapter 6 - I Am Not Satisfied with This Skill
Under the relentless assault of the trio, Jiaang Lin effortlessly dodged every attack with ease. No matter the angle of their onslaught, even when they seemed to have cut off all possible escape routes, Jiaang Lin slipped away like an elusive mudfish, miraculously finding a sliver of survival in the most unexpected places.
Their jaws dropped at his bizarre maneuvering skills. Without the aid of a flying sword, he could traverse a thousand meters in the blink of an eye, evading lethal blows from the most challenging angles. Such an advanced movement technique was surely far from ordinary.
Moreover, Jiaang Lin was merely a Martial Cultivator at Level 1, lacking the strength to perform spells. This indicated that he must have mastered a formidable movement martial technique to accomplish such feats that defied belief.
“He must have at least mastered a Profound Level movement martial technique!” Zhou Qin exclaimed through gritted teeth.
“I agree!” Zu Nan chimed in.
“Senior Sister, why don't we kill him and seize his movement martial technique?” Sunn Tang suggested, his eyes glinting with greed.
Jiaang Lin's eyes flashed with a deadly intent upon hearing this. If they sought his life because he had seen her body, he would have accepted his fate without protest. But the idea of them coveting his cultivation technique was something he could not tolerate.
”Our Master sent us to investigate this matter. It doesn't seem right for us to act this way,” Zhou Qin remarked, her brow furrowed, yet a spark of intrigue was unmistakable in her gaze.
Jiaang Lin's skills were at their peak, having reached the maximum level of 10. Zhou Qin tried to hide her true feelings, but Jiaang Lin saw right through her, detecting the genuine interest she harbored.
She was indeed intrigued. Zhou Qin's junior brothers, who had joined her on many demonic beast hunts, understood her well.
Sunn Tang pressed on, “Senior Sister, there's no one else around. If we kill him and leave his body in the territory of the Fire Wolves, he'll just be another unfortunate soul lost to the Flame Beasts. No one will connect it to us.”
Feeling persuaded by his own argument, Sunn Tang gave Zhou Qin a smug look, continuing his assault without pause. He then turned to her, asking confidently, “What do you say, Senior Sister Zhou Qin?”
When Sunn Tang posed his question, he was fairly certain Zhou Qin would consent, which prompted a sly grin from him.
“Senior Sister, just say yes! Consider it, it's a Profound Level movement martial technique!” Zu Nan eagerly added.
Their words only heightened Zhou Qin's curiosity. She was on the verge of giving her assent when suddenly, a chilling voice pierced the air!
“Do you still think you can kill me?” Jiaang Lin's lips curled into a cold sneer, his gaze laden with murderous intent. “Think again!”
In a flash, a deadly aura burst forth from Jiaang Lin, visibly unsettling the trio.
Skill Acquired: Tyrant Aura!
Tyrant Aura: Explosive Presence — You can stun those of a lower level than yourself!
Maximum Level Effect: Explosive Presence — You can stun those who are one great stage below your own level!
Would you like to upgrade it to maximum level?
Yes.
No.
“Doesn't this skill seem a bit lackluster? Even if I elevate it to maximum level, I can only stun those who are at most one great stage beneath me?”
Jiaang Lin was clearly underwhelmed by this ability.
