The Favored Son of Heaven

Seven terrorists snapped back to reality from their initial shock. They glanced at each other and had nothing superfluous to say between each other.

The seven people used syringes to inject something into their bodies. It was just that the locations where they injected were of different parts of the body. Some people chose to inject into their arms. Some people chose to inject into their legs. Some people directly chose to inject into their necks.

The syringe pressed down at an extremely quick speed. The seven people didn’t care at all about the pain created from the quick press of the syringes.

The liquid of the syringes was completely injected into their bodies. The complexions of the seven people instantly had great changes. Their eyes radiated with an abnormal glow in a flash, akin to that of a wild beast. The muscles on their faces, for some unknown reason, began to contort and spasm.

T24! Qin Fen’s brain flashed with this drug that Butcher had once spoken of before. This was a failed developed drug by the Federation. Originally, it was intended to stimulate the human body’s latent potential. However, the human body turned out to be far too mystical. Even though science and technology had developed to such stages, they remained incapable of truly giving a comprehensive understanding. In the end, the T24 was a failed product that came from the overconfidence of its designer.

It was true that the user could lose all sensation of pain for a short period of time and have his true energy and muscles rapidly expand, but it was just that this drug had other problems. For example, what expanded was not limited to true energy and muscle. At the same time, all the cells of the human body, including the ones in the brain, expanded as well.

When a person’s brain received such stimulation, the person would fall into a certain deranged state. Such a person wouldn’t know what he was doing. He wouldn’t know anything he did. He would just execute the last thought he had while clearheaded.

For the sake of executing this order, the T24 users to completely forget about the matter of life or death and ignored any dangers whatsoever.

However, once the T24 was exhausted, the person’s entire brain would immediately wither. His body, because of the forceful stimulated expansion of cells, would have a huge quantity of life force consumed. The user’s body would then wither up all the same.

Once the effects of the drug were over, the user didn’t even have the chance to become clearheaded again. The entire person would immediately become retarded. Several seconds after becoming retarded, the user’s life would have already reached its limits.

At first, the Federation didn’t want to give up on this drug. They strove to engage in improvements using every method possible. However, as experiments grew deeper, they discovered that there seemed to be a mistake in the direction of research from the very beginning. The user of the drug had to be suited for the drug. The tiny white experimental mice, because of the expansion of muscle, exploded and died on the spot.

The Federation gave a nickname to this drug—Death Angel.

The Federation completely destroyed this drug because of humanitarianism. However, they never expected that its creator didn’t plan on giving up the results of his research. He escaped into the nights with this drug and its research. When the other researchers discovered that he was missing, they search after him, but they discovered that this man had already joined a terrorist organization. It was just that the concrete terrorist organization was incapable of being ascertained for a time.

The battle intent in Qin Fen’s chest erupted. He didn’t care what these people were doing. The Arhat Cloud Walk allowed him to arrive before two of his enemies. He swung his two arms, which were as thick as two calves, in the Double Ear Slap. His hands pressed against the heads of the terrorists who were still in the middle of transformation. He pressed hard toward the center, forcing two heads to collide.

The two terrorists had yet to finish adapting to the liquid of the syringe. They didn’t have any time at all to do any reaction whatsoever. There two heads heavily collided together, and the scene was more like two watermelons colliding together. Red and white liquid splattered on Qin Fen’s two hands.

This terrorist, whose muscles of his two arms and legs were going through bizarre spasms, already lost his head completely, but the muscles of his body didn’t stop squirming. It was as if there were forty-eight thousand insects scurrying around beneath his skin. They squeezed against each other everywhere, and they moved everywhere.

The fight had just begun, and half of the ten terrorists were already eliminated. Qin Fen sighed to himself. The effects of the Super Berserker Pill were far too strong. Not only was one’s power and true energy crazily increased, even one’s reaction turned far more nimble. He moved akin to the raging storm.

Five roars, akin to that of monsters, exploded forth as Qin Fen killed. Five black human shadows dashed at high speed in a ramming motion like that of a wild boar. Their speed was in no way slower than Qin Fen’s Soaring Cannon at the peak of four-star.

A thick and solid thigh swept before Qin Fen, bringing the wind to scream. It was like a gale out of nowhere of the wilderness.

Qin Fen had taken a Super Berserker Pill. Not only had the true energy within his body turn incomparably berserk, even his personality seems to be influenced by the pill. He could’ve used the Dragon Guard to avoid the thick leg, but he chose not to avoid it at all. The true energy within his body rose over and over like a high tide of water. His body performed the Arhat Fist’s Tiger Lunge.

The Tiger Lunge was the most simple move of the Arhat Fist, but nobody knew of its true ease and difficulties. Simply, if one didn’t unleash the aura of a fierce tiger when executing this move, its might would be at most that of an angry kitten.

The most simple and ordinary things were often the most practical thing. The martial artist master of the past, Bruce Lee, once said, “The utmost is up to me. Simplicity is beauty.”

The Arhat Fist was Qin Fen’s fighting technique that he had spent much hard work and revisions on. Thought could not compare to the speed of the nerve reflexes — this strike was practically on the level of an instinctual reaction.

His two legs opened up in a stance of a fierce tiger. He had the calm of the Beast King facing a pack of wolves. He raised his right hand to smashed down with a fist before his opponent’s leg could be released with full force. In an instant, his fist arrived at his opponent’s knee.

The Arhat Fist was the essence of firmness, ferocity, and being unyielding. Therefore, Qin Fen simply chose to meet force with force in order to bring out the true fist intent of this technique.

Even if Qin Fen retreated to evade his opponent’s leg, what of the other four opponents and their attacks? These four people had speeds that were practically perfectly in sync. Backing down by a mere bit would cause Qin Fen’s momentum to fall. Then he would be chased by unending and continuous attacks. Their display and appearance, akin to that of crazy wolves, wasn’t one that normal people ought to possess.

Qin Fen’s fist drew its power from the bottom of his foot. The power then concentrated into a rotational force within his body. His fist was not only firm and fierce beyond compare, but the spot he struck out at was completely elaborate. It was the tiny pit beneath the kneecap.

Normally, seeking to strike this location in the outstanding life or death slaughter of a battle was truly not an easy thing to do. It was just that today, as his opponents’ lower limbs had suddenly turned exceptionally thick. Though this increase the power of leg sweeps substantially, it also exposed the weak points to be incomparably clear.

The fist smashed below the knee on the cartilage tissue. It was as if this thick and solid thigh was like a large tree that had been chopped down by a hatchet. It broke completely backward. His opponent’s body, however, didn’t seem to feel any sort of pain. The broken leg dropped to the ground in a step, and his body turned. He dashed below Qin Fen’s body like a crippled horse. There was a fanatical smile on this opponent’s face, and he struck out from bottom to top at Qin Fen’s throat.

A wisp of fury suddenly flashed in Qin Fen’s glowing eyes. The fierce tiger was the Beast King, and when faced with the challenge of an injured wolf, this angered the Beast King, for it possessed might. The back leg stance of the Tiger Lunge slowly trod the ground and exerted force. With the sole of the foot as the center, it was as if a thousand-pound object had been tossed to the ground within a two-meter radius. He raised the knee of his foreleg, and the air immediately screamed with the ripping of cloth and the piercing of air.

This was a move of one of the opponents Qin Fen fought in the past. This was the recruit Zha Can’s Wyvern Raises Knee. This move simply rammed the opponent’s chin into pieces. The power, akin to that of an ocean’s wave, engaged in a second assault. It simply smashed the opponent’s head to smithereens by force.

The other four terrorists all arrived by Qin Fen’s side in a flash. Their arms, as thick as thighs, and their muscular thighs, as powerful as those of rhinoceroses, came smashing down from four different directions with Qin Fen in the middle. Qin Fen was surrounded by attacks.

Being dauntless and unafraid of death was the best way to stall for time. With several terrorists eventually dead from their all-out attacks, the remaining four terrorists were given enough time to be used.

Qin Fen’s body had been pushing back against his true energy all this time. He had forcibly chosen to pressurize a portion of his true energy. At this moment, he was incapable of suppressing it any longer. His true energy erupted like a volcano, following his meridians to surge in a thunderous roar of turbulence. Qin Fen’s two arms were like holy weapons in the hands of an Arhat. He was tranquil and dignified as he felt the bubbling motions of the surrounding currents of air. It was time to rely on martial senses to eliminate demons in a dance.

The Guardian Deity Fist’s most suited move for fighting groups—the Guardian Deity Chaotic Dance—was used.

Qin Fen’s arms waved without end. He was like a guardian deity that had fallen into a crowd of demons, sparing no effort to slay demons. Waves and waves of winds, generated by his fist, smashed through the air, letting out screams akin to the fierce gales of the wilderness.

In a split second, the battlefield was like the moment when a big boss of a crime syndicate was released from prison. A dozen or so gun salutes, arranged outside the prison, opened fire in welcome at the same time.

The long time spent cultivating in the Arhat Fist made Qin Fen seem like a true Arhat during battle. The Arhat and the Guardian Deity came from the same origins, and though Guardian Deity Chaotic Dance had its might magnified by Qin Fen’s hands.

The battle between five people was just like a battle between Buddha and demons during the era of legends. After taking the Super Berserker Pill, Qin Fen’s aura was in no way inferior to the legendary guardian deity with eyes of fury.

A portion of pressurized true energy exploded forth, and his two arms pulled apart to move all over the place. The fists he blasted out with were the size of human heads. His fists, covered with veins, forcefully clashed together with the four terrorists who had taken the Death Angel drug. The sound of rushing fists and feet colliding together exploded endlessly.

Within the range of this battle, an unknown amount of mud flew out from the muddy ground. It was as if a blender had just done some work in this place.

These terrorists, who looked to be of middle age, were each close to the four-star peak in terms of strength. Their punches and kicks possessed a might that was already quite terrifying. Now that they had taken the Death Angel drug, just how much higher have their strength been stimulated in an instant?

It was very unfortunate, however. The T24 Death Angel might be terrifying, but Qin Fen had his good friend Enzo Rota, a known genius in pharmaceuticals. The concentrated version of the super berserker drug was developed by him to be much more powerful than normal. The Guardian Deity Chaotic Dance rumbled out, and every strike would cause an opponent to be rumbled back several steps.

Thud thud thud thud thud thud….

The four terrorists could not stop themselves from falling back several steps before they were able to stand firm with their bodies.

The forceful exchange of blows didn’t even last a dozen seconds before terrorists each received several of Qin Fen’s fists. They shouldn’t have been able to feel anything since they took the Death Angel drug. Yet, they felt an aching and numbing sensation in their arms, shoulders, and legs.

The expanding true energy in their body surged without end. It seemed that their true energy could no longer be commanded.

Qin Fen gently warmed up his two shoulders and stood proudly in place. It was akin to a guardian deity within its temple that had come to slay the demon. His ten fingers flexed in movements and rhythm. The muscles of his back throbbed over and over.

The four enemies seem to have gone mad. They were completely unafraid of death. Two fists were a hard match for four hands, and they displayed this in great detail.

Qin Fen took at least two palms with his back in the series of explosive strikes just now. If it wasn’t for the fact the protective power of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art was in no way weak, and the fact that Qin Fen had taken the Super Armor Pill to forcefully raise his defense power by forty-five percent, increasing the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art defense power to even exceed the power of the Golden Bell Shield as well as the Iron Mantle, then the attacks would have lacerated his skin and flesh. Even bone wouldn’t have been a problem.

The T24 Death Angel was fully justified in its reputation. It was worthy to be called the predecessor drug to the Berserker Pill and the Armor Pill. Its might was much more powerful than that of these two drugs. It was just that its side effects were far too great.

The four terrorists that had taken the T24 Death Angel practically had all trains of thought stop. However, because their final thought was to do battle, their battle instinct ensured that they didn’t forget a single iota of information in regards to martial arts. They used their last remaining thoughts, or perhaps it was better to say that they were relying completely on their martial artists’ instincts, to observe Qin Fen as an opponent.

When the two palms had struck down just now, there was a feeling as if the palm smacked against the body of a Golden Bell Shield martial artist. The defensive capabilities was absolutely not that of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art. It was one hundred percent that of the Golden Bell Shield.

No! It wasn’t one hundred percent. Beneath the Golden Bell Shield was still a layer of the Iron Mantle, and beneath the Iron Mantle was the defensive aura field of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art.

To have three defensive mystical arts on a single person’s body at the same time? The brains of the four people ordeal lost practically all capability of thought. They were incapable of comprehending why they felt such a thing.

It was just that, even if they recovered all capability of thought, they would be incapable of understanding quite this was the case all the same. In addition, if they hadn’t lost all other power of perception, those two palms just now would not have thought about the defensive true energy field of Qin Fen’s and how complicated it was.

The four terrorists didn’t need to exchange gazes at all. They had an instinctual connection between them. They pounced once again at Qin Fen in the same instant. This time their tacit understanding was far better than that of last time.

Qin Fen faced the sudden assault by four people, but he didn’t fall back. His two legs split into the Great Horse Stance. His right leg suddenly stomped the ground.

Boom!

The mud on the ground splattered in all directions. Water and dirt combined to make mud. Under the powerful resonance, they let out a sound akin to the war drums of an ancient battlefield.

When this foot stomped out, Qin Fen’s aura transformed once again. With him as the center, the air seemed to begin to spin and surge. The same word flashed in the minds of the four terrorists as they entered this area of air.

“Ocean.”

The great ocean!

What the four people faced didn’t seem like a person but the enormous ocean! The enormous ocean that surged and churned with giant waves that dashed to the skies.

The feeling of oppression rose abruptly and unbounded from within Qin Fen’s body in a split second. At this moment, Qin Fen was able to feel that if he were to successfully come out victorious in this battle and kill these four people, he would be able to advance and step across the enormous dividing line to enter the five-star level. In other words, he would join the ranks of true meteor level martial artists!

The four terrorists, who threw themselves at Qin Fen, suddenly halted. They were already war machines, having lost all capability of thought. They completely relied on instinct to do battle, but this instinct harmed them in this very moment.

A normal martial artist wouldn’t have seen any illusion whatsoever. These people, who only had instinct left, felt the moment where Qin Fen’s aura became strange. The scene of the great ocean marvelously appeared in their minds.

In a flash, they were at a loss. They didn’t know where their opponent had gone.

One instant. From Qin Fen’s perspective, this instant was enough for him to do far too many things.

For example, the recoil force of the Soaring Cannon to make a pressing charge. This allowed him to arrive upon the four people. For example, the Heart Excising Hand allowed him to excise the hearts of two people. At the same time, Treading the Mountains allowed him to tread on the chest of one person and stomp the chest of another person. These two strikes, which possessed a surging power enough to kill a rhinoceros, simply pierced through the chests of two people. The broken bones pierced their hearts and skewered their kidneys. At the same time, their broken bones skewered through the skin of their backs.
