Is Fourth-Tier Peak Still Fourth Tier?

Call...

The dagger fell from Ren Shui's hand, and he walked on the white snow, leaving bloody footprints with each step.

It's so cold...

A cold current surged into my body through every pore, making me feel as if I were being weighed down by a ten-thousand-pound weight.

A wave of fatigue washed over Ren Water, leaving him somewhat dazed.

'I can't hear the sounds anymore...'

'My vision is also getting blurry...'

'Is it the gas, or... am I going to die?'

Oh...

I can't laugh.

Ren Shui's vision gradually blurred, and then a series of double images flashed before his eyes. He saw the scene from before.

When was that...? I can't remember.

'Strange, where did this happen?'

Have I seen these before?

'Ah, is it because of the forgetfulness potion?'

'The repeated forgetting eventually made me forget when I made the decision to kill everyone...'

Even the memories of her time with Ding Fire are now blurred.

Bump.

Ren Shui knelt on the ground, and the memories he could still recall surfaced one by one, like a fleeting glimpse of a scene.

He doesn't regret joining the Nine-Tailed Fox, nor does he regret becoming Ten Heavenly Stems, because so many of his firsts in life came from here.

This is the first time someone has liked me.

The first time I've liked someone.

He has seniors who take care of him and comrades who can entrust their backs to him.

Despite the internal conflicts among the Ten Heavenly Stems, everyone shares the same goal: world peace and to contribute to the cause of human conservation.

That's why they became the Ten Heavenly Stems, but the development of all things never goes according to plan.

Fate has ordained them to kill each other, with the victor becoming king and the loser becoming a bandit.

As the saying goes, "When people arrive in Luoyang, the flowers are in full bloom," but I came when spring had not come.

He said that if only two out of ten survive, then all this beauty is destined to be as fleeting as Epiphyllum's Fleeting Bloom.

Seeing Ren water kneeling silently on the ground for a long time, Xin metal cautiously walked over.

The white phantom behind her was surrounded by countless blades, all aimed at Ren Shui at this moment.

But at this moment, Ren Shui choked up and said a sentence.

"It's... no longer necessary."

"Only the two of us are left. We will both survive. There's no need for us to keep killing each other..."

Xin Jin frowned. "Do you think I'd believe you?"

Ren Shui gave a wry smile. "Then let's stop talking and get started."

Xin metal represents strong fortune, and things will definitely develop in a way that benefits her.

Now, all she needs to do is kill Ren Shui with her sword, and she can truly end all of this.

Xin Jin did not hesitate. With a flick of her finger, the blade plunged completely into Ren Shui's body in an instant!

Puff puff puff puff!

The sounds of sharp weapons piercing bodies rang out, but Xin Jin's attack power was truly insufficient.

All the Heavenly Stems have strong constitutions, with Earth (戊土) being the strongest and Metal (庚金) being the second strongest.

These blades could only penetrate three inches into the flesh of the Ren Shui person, but could not go any further.

Xin Jin gritted his teeth and started spinning the blade!

But just then, a dark figure suddenly appeared behind Xin Jin!

Um?

Xin Jin subconsciously turned her head and saw a blade suddenly flash past her neck.

Puff!!

Xin Jin's head was severed with a single blow, and her headless body collapsed.

The countless blades embedded in Ren Shui's body also dissipated.

"You're too slow..."

As Ren Shui spoke, a man in black holding an alloy knife sheathed it.

He came to Ren Shui's side, lifted his arm, and helped him up. "Sorry, I was delayed for a moment because of the scum of the Hand of the Serpent."

"Judging from your condition, it wasn't an easy win."

Ren Shui was panting heavily. Seeing that he had lost too much blood, the man in black took out a vial of adrenaline and injected it into his body.

"They're still alive even in this state? Heavenly Dry, they really are a bunch of monsters."

Ren Shui let out a long breath; after the adrenaline injection, the fatigue and pain in his body dissipated.

"Wait, that's it."

As Ren Shui spoke, he pushed aside the man in black and came to Xin Jin's side.

A white energy then merged into his body.

Meanwhile, Ren water sits cross-legged, using this time to recover energy.

Upon seeing this, the man in black crossed his arms. He was none other than the sixth of the Twelve Earthly Branches, Siwei, the holder of the Snake Talisman.

He wasn't originally part of this mission; he volunteered to join.

Because he reached a cooperation agreement with Renshui.

Ren Shui told him that the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches were subject to the same rule, and ultimately only one person could survive.

He helps Ren water deal with the other heavenly stems, while Ren water helps him deal with the other earthly branches.

But clearly, Ren water deceived him.

Meanwhile, the Nine-Tailed Fox and the main force of Chaos had all gathered in the core area of Antarctica.

Meng Qing was dragged into a Dreamscape by the nightmare, defeated the nightmare in the dream.

It was at this moment that Nightmare realized just how powerful this person named Seth was!

He's stronger than the Queen Bee!

But this is not reflected in the physical body, but in the Mental Power!

Meng Qing does have fourth-order Mental Power, but even peak fourth-order Mental Power is still fourth-order!

After clashing with the opponent's Mental Power, Nightmare immediately backed down.

We can't fight! We can't fight!

If this guy's Mental Power were just a little stronger, he would have reached the fifth level!

Are you kidding me!

This isn't the world of cultivation!

Are you a Nascent Soul cultivator who has been reborn through possession?

A body at the Third Tier High Rank, Mental Power at the peak of the fourth tier!

In some respects, Meng Qing's magical attacks are far stronger than his physical attacks.

However, he had not been with the Right Hand Unit for long, and his knowledge of magic was only at a beginner level.

If he could reach the magic level of Nairasojin, he could rival a fourth-tier fighter using only magic.

At the beginning, Meng Qing's Mental Power was not this strong.

His Mental Power gradually grew to this level. Every time he slept and woke up, his Mental Power would increase by a certain amount.

Yes, his Mental Power increases automatically.

But this is not good news for him.

Because if his Mental Power continues to improve and reaches the fifth level, then he will be able to see the Dreamland.

I saw a fifth-order being.

He himself is only at the third rank. When a fifth-rank being unleashes energy to destroy everything, a single wave can kill him.

Can this be considered good news?

This is precisely what Meng Qing is worried about.

After leaving the Dreamscape, Meng Qing did not entangle with the Nine-Tailed Fox who came to his aid. Instead, he took the Rat Talisman and led Cain away.

The two arrived at a snow-capped mountain in Antarctica, where a huge, coiled serpent statue stood.

The serpent statue has two hands, which are outstretched and holding a glittering golden book.

This is the Book of Gods, yes, it really exists.

But the purpose of the Book of Gods is not to grant wishes.

"I've got the Rat Talisman."

"Next, we will send the giant serpent to earth!"

Orochi: (*?▽?*).
