Chapter 376 The Assassins Return!
If it weren't for the fact that her strength was already at the mid-stage of the Yellow Rank, she would probably have died at Han Shilan's hands by now.
"You... what kind of weapon is this?! It's so... powerful!"
The female assassin lay on the ground, barely alive, like a lamb to the slaughter, utterly powerless to resist. She had suffered severe internal injuries, and it was a miracle that she could even speak.
"I...I, why did you attack me? I didn't do anything to hurt you!" Han Shilan asked, her face full of confusion, as she gripped the air pistol tightly in her hand.
Upon hearing this, the female assassin glanced at Han Shilan with a mocking look in her eyes, a cold smile playing on her lips, before fainting.
Seeing the woman faint, Han Shilan finally felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief, glancing at the air pistol in her hand.
Fortunately, he left her this weapon for self-defense.
Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have been able to survive. Then she realized a truth: to survive, strength is the most important thing.
Otherwise, they would all be lambs to be slaughtered.
Han Shilan glanced at the woman who had fainted on the ground, then turned and left indifferently.
She walked quickly toward the cabin, feeling both scared and surprised. She had just set her pistol to high damage mode, yet a single shot still hadn't killed her instantly.
Even a large tree would be knocked down, but that living woman was able to withstand it and still speak.
The woman had only fainted. Han Shilan wondered if, when she woke up, she would call upon her accomplices who had jumped down with her to seek revenge.
Little did she know, her idea was actually quite possible.
Because of these female assassins, they can engage in a practice called illegal teaming.
In other words, the female assassins first team up to eliminate the other female assassins, and then they decide the winner by force.
After returning to the cabin, Han Shilan immediately boiled a pot of water over a campfire and drank it in large gulps to relieve her tension and anxiety.
"Han Shilan, what are you afraid of? You have a self-defense weapon given to you by your husband. How could you be afraid of those people of unknown origin?!" Han Shilan sat on the wooden chair, tightly gripping the air pistol in her hand, and muttered to herself.
Only in this way could she comfort herself, because there was no one else here but her.
She appears strong on the surface, but it's all an act.
At this moment, beneath the mud.
Yang Feng sat cross-legged on the stone platform, frantically absorbing all the spiritual energy around him to build a solid foundation for himself.
Now, all he needs is a cultivation technique that allows him to reach the Heavenly Rank or higher, and he can break through in an instant!
Of course, he could force a breakthrough now, but he would suffer from qi deviation!
He remained conscious and did not attempt to break through the confines of the place.
Because only a fool would do that.
Forcing a breakthrough can lead to demonic possession at best, and death by explosion at worst!
After becoming possessed by a demon, he might very well become unrecognizable to his own family and friends. In that case, Yang Feng might as well just commit suicide.
Therefore, he simply took advantage of this time to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy to solidify and build his foundation.
The amount of spiritual power within him is now comparable to that of a master at the initial stage of the Heavenly Rank.
However, those who do not reach the Heavenly Rank will never truly be at the Heavenly Rank and will be unable to acquire the flight techniques, many abilities, and elemental powers within it!
Just then, Yang Feng opened his eyes, his spiritual energy surging wildly within him. Looking up at the flowing mud and swamp above, a resolute glint flashed in his dark eyes, and he murmured softly:
"With the current concentration of spiritual energy in my body, I should be able to jump out of this muddy pond in one go!"
After speaking, Yang Feng began to gather his strength, and at the moment of the explosion, his entire body suddenly sprang up, causing a slight tremor in the ground below.
Its power is comparable to that of a Heavenly Rank cultivator, and should not be underestimated!
Although his spiritual power is currently only at the first level of the Heaven Rank!
According to Chaos, the Heavenly Ranks are not only the beginning of cultivation, but each realm is also divided into nine levels!
"Gurgle~"
Yang Feng's body instantly pierced into the mud, unleashing a powerful spiritual energy barrier in an attempt to resist the devouring power within the mud.
Unfortunately, not long after, the spiritual energy barrier he had created was completely swallowed up by some force in the mud.
Yang Feng suddenly felt the spiritual energy within his body being rapidly devoured.
But he couldn't care less about that now; he had to charge forward in one go!
Even if it's just for her!
But just as he was about to escape the mud, all the spiritual power in his body vanished without a trace.
"No...no..."
Yang Feng screamed and lost consciousness once again, slowly sinking into the flowing mud.
Meanwhile, outside it was already night, but inside Han Shilan's little wooden house, the lights were bright and clear, making it the most cozy place on the entire island.
