Let the bullets fly for a while

"As a brother born from the same mother, the Supreme Bone shouldn't reject me, right?!"

Qin Feng's face twisted in pain, but he gritted his teeth and held on. He knew that to keep stirring up trouble in this world, he had to be ruthless not only to others but even more so to himself.

If he couldn't endure even this much pain, how could he ever go around causing chaos later?

"Are you crazy? Who stabs themselves with a sword!?"

Zi Yuan finally snapped out of her shock and hurried over to bandage Qin Feng's wound.

But before she could act, the wound on Qin Feng's body began healing at a visible rate. In less than ten minutes, it was completely healed, not even a scar left behind.

Ever since comprehending the third layer of the Thirty-Three Heavens Creation Technique, Qin Feng's self-healing ability had become increasingly monstrous. While he couldn't claim to regrow severed limbs, regrowing a severed finger was no problem.

"What kind of monster are you!?"

Zi Yuan was stunned speechless, her mind churning with disbelief.

An eight-year-old brat who could challenge opponents above his level was already absurd enough, yet he also possessed terrifying killing moves like the Cutting Heaven Sword Drawing Technique and the Great Mighty Dragon, and now this insane self-healing ability.

Nima!!

Any one of these abilities would make the old monsters of the Ancient Wasteland hang their heads in shame.

But now they were all concentrated in one person—a mere eight-year-old kid. And when she thought back to Lin San's terrifying sword strike last night, the Great Era of Contention had truly arrived.

This generation's Heavenly Prides were all overwhelmingly powerful!

"You're the monster! Your whole family are monsters!"

Qin Feng cursed, rolling his eyes, and began tracking the traces of Lin San's escape from last night.

"Wait for me!"

Zi Yuan quickly chased after him, not daring to stay alone.

She had to stick close to Qin Feng at all times, ready to latch onto his coattails whenever needed.

Not long after—

The two avoided the searching Wei Hu Gang disciples and arrived before a stone wall in the forest. On the wall was a black vortex, like a Black Hole that could devour everything.

"Ruins!"

Qin Feng's eyes lit up, his heart racing with excitement.

He had heard about Ruins from the Ten Ancestors—small worlds carved out by great powerhouses, often storing their legacies and the Magic Treasures they used in life.

Even without legacies or treasures, such places could nurture Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for triggering a villain mission: seize the Son of Heaven's opportunity and treasure. Reward: Gold Chest *1."

"No wonder he ignored me and went after Lin San."

Qin Feng couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The Son of Heaven was truly unreasonable—it was like God himself was spoon-feeding him. Meanwhile, as the villain, he had to rely on his own efforts to complete tasks.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go in now!"

Zi Yuan was unusually excited.

She was a female warrior out to explore the world—how could she pass up a chance to enter Ruins?

"Not the right time!"

Qin Feng glanced at the time, found a hidden spot, and sat down to cultivate.

As a ten-year veteran Old Bookworm, he could say with full responsibility that going into a dungeon with the protagonist was harder than crossing a Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation.

Teammates were easy to sacrifice, and enemies were all tools.

Once the halo activated, it didn't distinguish friend from foe!

Better to let the bullets fly for a while. Haste makes waste.

"What do you mean!?"

Zi Yuan hurried over to ask.

But Qin Feng had no intention of answering. He had already entered a meditative state, beginning to cultivate, and the surrounding spiritual energy slowly flowed into his body.

The Supreme Bone transplanted earlier showed no signs of rejection. The Mysterious Runes surging on its surface began to travel through his body, giving birth to a divine ability called Heavenly Tribulation Light.

"So this is the divine ability within the Supreme Bone!?"

Qin Feng's one-month Insight Halo from his last exchange was still active, and he began trying to comprehend the Heavenly Tribulation Light within the Supreme Bone.

Boom!

The void trembled as a vast, ocean-like force of heaven and earth surged toward Qin Feng. Before this power, everything in the world seemed insignificant.

Qin Feng struggled to breathe, like a climber pushing upward. Each step forward brought doubled pressure, his steps faltering, his body swaying.

But with it came a deeper understanding of the force of heaven and earth, and the clarity in his heart grew sharper.

"Although the Supreme Bone's Heavenly Tribulation Light is impressive, it can only serve as a supplementary tool!"

Qin Feng did not invest too much effort into the Supreme Bone, instead focusing on his Invincible Twin Pupils.

Due to his current limited cultivation, many of the Twin Pupils' abilities remained undeveloped. Aside from seeing through the essence of things, he had only unlocked two skills: decomposing movements and slowing speed.

"Don't these Heavenly Prides have anything else to do besides cultivate!?"

Zi Yuan sat cross-legged to the side, propping her chin on her hand in displeasure. She wanted to venture into the Ruins but didn't dare, so she could only wait here for Qin Feng to wake up and take her inside.

Gurgle!!

Her stomach betrayed her with an unseemly growl, and Zi Yuan found herself craving Qin Feng's chicken again.

Inside the Ruins.

Lin San advanced cautiously, one hand gripping his sword while the other held a map.

He had originally planned to return to Heavenly Heart City with Lin Xin'er, but along the way, he stumbled upon a tattered map that perfectly completed the one he already had.

What a coincidence!

So he broke away from the group and returned alone to search for the Ruins.

But on the way, he ran into Qin Feng. Remembering the Qin family's influence in the eastern region, he hesitated to open the Ruins, afraid the Qins would monopolize everything.

Fortunately, Qin Feng had taken Zi Yuan and fled last night, giving him time to explore the Ruins.

Ah...

Distant screams rose and fell in succession.

Lin San glanced back indifferently, knowing that the Wei Hu Gang had already entered the Ruins.

Unlike the Qin family, who ruled the east with an iron fist, the Wei Hu Gang posed no threat to him. Even the traps within the Ruins alone would be enough to give them a rough time.

"I need to speed up. If the Qin family finds out, it'll be trouble!"

Following the map's guidance, Lin San skillfully dodged trap after trap, heading straight for the treasure vault within the Ruins.

Outside the Ruins.

Qin Feng had been sitting in meditation for a long time, and the Spiritual Energy within him had reached a critical point.

With a Snap!!

A dull sound erupted from within his body, accompanied by a wave of force that swept outward.

"It's over! The training's over!"

Zi Yuan, who had been listless moments ago, perked up immediately, eagerly anticipating Qin Feng roasting a chicken for her.

"Hah, Transcendent Realm, third level!"

Qin Feng exhaled a deep breath of turbid air, clearly feeling the changes in his body.

If before, his spiritual energy could only shoot five meters from his body, now, after breaking through to the third level of the Transcendent Realm, it could reach ten meters, with far greater power than before.

It was like a middle-aged man who could barely pee past his own shoes in a tailwind, suddenly becoming an eighteen-year-old lad who could piss ten yards against the wind.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

A flurry of hurried footsteps suddenly rang out, and from all directions, thousands of Wei Hu Gang disciples surged forward.

"Not good! We've been spotted!"

Zi Yuan grabbed Qin Feng's hand in panic, urging him to flee. Even if Qin Feng possessed an Emperor's Talent, he couldn't hold off so many enemies...
