Desperate Confrontation

Green Mountain Forest.

Wind Fox territory.

A peak showdown was still underway.

Boom!

Boom!

Wind Blades exploded.

The ever-arrogant Mutated Human now had pale lips, trembling as he fired Wind Blades. Watching the unceasing barrage of Wind Blades from across the way, he was nearly driven to despair!

How was this possible?

Terror filled the Mutated Human's heart.

Under normal circumstances, Wind Blade had no cooldown. However, because it required forming the formation, activation, and the brief stiffness after release, one could only fire one Wind Blade per second on average. With certain special techniques, the firing speed could increase, allowing for rapid consecutive shots.

That was the essence of rapid-fire Wind Blades!

As a Mutated Human with Wind Fox bloodline, he had almost completely mastered Wind Blade. When he released Wind Blades, there was no delay at all!

Therefore—

He could achieve an absolute hundred-shot barrage.

Without relying on special chances, he could fire a hundred shots purely through his own strength.

A single Wind Blade consumed 1 point of Mental Energy, and he had 100 points of Mental Energy. Thus, his minimum standard each time was a hundred consecutive shots. Once a special chance triggered, he could release even more Wind Blades. He believed that once he broke through to E-Class, he would become even stronger!

And as for the additional combo chance...

That was also something he took pride in.

An ordinary human's Wind Blade combo rate was 5%, while his, as a Mutated Human with Wind Fox bloodline, was 20%—a number that struck fear into people's hearts! Combined with possible double and triple shots, the number of Wind Blades he unleashed in every burst ranged from 120 to 150!

A number that terrified everyone.

Thus, even though genetic mutation had turned him into a Mutated Human, he had never regretted it.

Yet now...

Boom!

Boom!

A string of Wind Blades descended.

The Mutated Human's face turned deathly pale as he counted them—two hundred and eighty!

That damned human had fired a full two hundred and eighty Wind Blades in succession, shattering all of the Mutated Human's pride before ruthlessly grinding it underfoot.

He must be close to his limit.

The Mutated Human prayed inwardly.

Yet he sadly discovered that his 100 points of Mental Energy were nearly depleted.

Of course, he had never imagined that he had misunderstood from the very beginning. Chen Feng's hundred-shot and two-hundred-shot barrages had nothing to do with the speed at which he cast Wind Blades—they were purely the result of combo chances!

Boom!

Another barrage of Wind Blades fell.

Two hundred and ninety!

Three hundred!

Pfft!

The Mutated Human finally could not hold on any longer.

Boom!

His entire body was blasted away.

In the Wind Blade clash!

He had lost.

Why... had it turned out like this?

The Mutated Human looked utterly lost.

"Good chance."

A cold gleam flashed through Chen Feng's eyes.

Strike while he was down and finish him off. Chen Feng did not hesitate as he unleashed another Wind Blade from his hand. Its terrifying force pierced through the Mutated Human. Though the Wind Fox beside him was anxious, it never intervened. Just as Chen Feng's Wind Blades were about to cut down the Mutated Human, a sudden change occurred!

Boom!

An astonishing, terrifying power erupted from the Mutated Human's body.

That terrifying power shot straight into The Heavens.

"This aura..."

Chen Feng's heart skipped a beat.

E-Class! This guy had actually broken through his limits?

"HAHAHA!"

The Mutated Human burst into wild laughter.

"AOO—"

The Mutated Human's body rapidly swelled, white fur spreading across his entire body. The abnormalities that had once been limited to his ears and tail were now completely covered. Only his face still looked somewhat human.

A human head atop a fox's body!

This was a true Mutated Human!

Chen Feng's expression turned grave.

"HAHAHA."

The Mutated Human laughed madly. "I broke through. I finally broke through. We Mutated Humans don't need to fuse with gene reagents at every rank. Hehe, as long as I devour you..."

"Your abilities!"

"Your genes!"

"Everything you have will be mine."

The Mutated Human's face twisted grotesquely, his formerly handsome features now looking utterly distorted.

"Thud!"

"Thud!"

He stepped forward one step at a time, terrifying power rippling outward. Although breaking through his limits had only raised his attributes by one point, reaching E-Class allowed the Wind Fox bloodline within the Mutated Human to fully bloom. His body became even more beast-like, with thicker fur and a richer bloodline, causing his combat strength to soar.

"A Wind Blade showdown, is it?"

"I'll let you know who possesses the true Wind Fox bloodline."

The Mutated Human roared.

"Whoosh!"

Wind Blades erupted once more.

Yet Chen Feng merely watched him coldly. Who the hell wanted to compete with him over Wind Fox bloodlines? Seeing that this guy had broken through to E-Class, with the Wind Fox Leader eyeing him like a tiger and the ordinary Wind Foxes closing in from all around, Chen Feng did not hesitate to throw out a streak of blue-white radiance.

"What?"

The Mutated Human froze for a moment.

"AOO!"

The ever-vigilant Wind Fox Leader sensed danger and pounced, knocking him to the ground.

"Boom!"

Thunder crashed with overwhelming force. The terrifying power blasted the Wind Fox Leader away, sending it smashing into the ground. Blood splattered everywhere, and it never rose again. The surrounding ordinary Wind Foxes were blown to Death Without a Whole Corpse by the Thunder Serpent Gene Reagent, leaving no survivors behind.

The Mutated Human was severely wounded!

"Pipi Fox!"

The Mutated Human let out a howl and struggled to his feet, staring at the scene in terror. He had never imagined that the moment he broke through to E-Class, he would be greeted by such an attack!

"It actually didn't die?"

Chen Feng found it somewhat regrettable.

The Wind Fox Leader's reaction had been too fast. It had actually used its own life to protect the Mutated Human. It seemed it had truly regarded him as one of its own kind! And after this Mutated Beast broke through to E-Class, its thick fur had absorbed a great deal of the damage for him!

Then, unexpectedly, the Mutated Human gave the Wind Fox Leader a deep look before turning and fleeing!

"Trying to run?"

Chen Feng sent several Wind Blades slashing after him.

However, the Mutated Human had already broken through to E-Class. Though injured, he was still faster than Chen Feng, and he soon vanished from Chen Feng's sight.

"Can't catch him."

Chen Feng shook his head.

This was Wind Fox territory. Letting that guy escape would be a huge problem.

"Leave this place first."

Chen Feng glanced at the ground.

Many Wind Foxes had been killed, but the ordinary Wind Foxes had been so violently ravaged by the Thunder Serpent Gene Reagent that even their corpses had been charred, let alone any remaining gene activity. Only the powerful, thick-skinned Wind Fox Leader still had an intact corpse.

"Pfft!"

Chen Feng extracted the Wind Fox Leader's genes and quickly departed.

However, just about a minute after he left, Chen Feng began hearing continuous rustling sounds. Wind Foxes emerged from all directions and searched the area. The Mutated Beast had already returned, leading over a hundred Wind Foxes in a relentless search for Chen Feng!

"So fast!"

Chen Feng's heart tightened.

He was deep within the Wind Fox territory now. There was no way he could escape in a short time, and that Mutated Human still hadn't given up on Chen Feng's genes...

"This is troublesome."

Chen Feng took a deep breath.

The speed at which that Mutated Human had gathered the Wind Foxes far exceeded his expectations. And there seemed to be even more of them than the first time they had met!

"Was it because it broke through to E-Class?"

Chen Feng guessed.

"What should I do?"

Chen Feng took a deep breath.

He knew that the Mutated Human wanted to trap him here until he died.

"Unless..."

Chen Feng looked at the gene in his hand.

This was the gene he had just extracted from the Wind Fox Leader. Its genetic attributes were extremely high. If he fused with it successfully, Chen Feng's mental strength could rise from 62 points to 81 points—a full increase of 19 points. His other attributes would surge as well. Strength, physique, and agility would all soar to 50 points!

This would be an overwhelmingly powerful all-around enhancement!

With his combat power greatly increased and Infinite Wind Blade at his disposal, he might not be unable to fight!

But...

Chen Feng suddenly recalled what Mu Yuan had said: unknown danger.

Fusing genes that exceeded one's own Body Strength and willpower could lead to unknown dangers. Chen Feng hesitated, but then he gave a bitter smile. Did he have a choice now?

The Wind Fox Leader's gene could lose its activity at any moment. If he hesitated any longer, he might lose even this last hope!

"I hope you won't disappoint me."

Chen Feng murmured to himself.

"Pfft!"

He injected the gene into his body. At this point, he could only gamble everything!
