You Can Just Think of Me as Having a Collecting Habit!

The rain was torrential.

Since the lightning struck.

Until the ground was covered with corpses.

In this short yet seemingly long half hour.

It's been raining continuously.

The bloodstains, which had fallen onto Ye Qingcang's slightly torn clothes, were traces left by Startled Salamander's sword energy and the few Innate Realm assassins of the Net. Some brown powder remained on his skin; these were dried bloodstains, dried by Ye Qingcang's vigorous blood and energy, and naturally broken down into powder during the intense movement. Finally, under the wash of the rain, they turned into mud-like stains that stuck to Ye Qingcang's body, which he hadn't had time to clean.

As for Startled Salamander, her appearance wasn't much better than Ye Qingcang's. Although her complexion was normal, it must be said that her Internal Force was indeed very effective in protecting her internal organs, at least more effective than her blood and qi. As a result, she was able to withstand Ye Qingcang's Iron Mountain Lean. Although her bones were fractured and her internal organs were injured, she did not lose her fighting ability, but the price was extremely high. Her soft armor was almost shattered, her ribs were broken, and some of her Internal Force had to be kept in her body to protect her internal organs from being pierced by the broken bones. Because she had taken a blow from Ye Qingcang earlier, she rolled on the ground, and her long dress was now covered in mud, which ruined her hairstyle, turning her bun into loose hair.

The two sides are a kilometer apart.

Through the rain curtain.

Their eyes met.

The only difference was the look in their eyes.

A murderous intent flashed in Startled Salamander's eyes.

The biting cold was like the Jing Ni Sword in her hand, now stained with blood.

Ye Qingcang's eyes were calm.

It was easy, but I wasn't careless, because it was one-on-one now.

The two stared at each other for a moment.

It only took two or three seconds.

It felt like a long time had passed.

An invisible aura emanated from Ye Qingcang, creating a curtain of rain.

Startled Salamander slowly closed her eyes, and her crimson Qi Aura spread out in a gentle manner. Unlike Ye Qingcang, who created a rain curtain, Jing Ni's aura suddenly became lively, like a large fish entering the water.

She knew exactly what she had to do.

Just like the young man opposite her knew very well what she was about to do.

Ye Qingcang was also very clear about what he had to do.

Just as he knew that Startled Salamander on the other side must know what he was going to do.

This was an unspoken battle from the start.

To outmaneuver your opponent by understanding their mindset.

Elsewhere.

Facing other opponents.

Whether it will be effective is hard to say.

But here, facing each other is absolutely impossible!

Therefore, there's no need for nonsense!

"Drink!"

Ye Qingcang shouted, and the rainwater within three zhang around him flowed upwards!

The magnetic field reversed, giving him a powerful counterforce!

It also put unparalleled pressure on his body!

With a light touch of the ground.

His figure flew out like an arrow released from a bow.

one hundred...

two hundred...

three hundred...

Four hundred...

five hundred...

A speed of 650 meters per second is a reward from heaven and earth for this courage!

It doesn't look like they used much force.

But the moment it landed.

The ground sank in in an exaggerated way.

It was clearly soft, rotten mud after being soaked by rainwater.

However, under the control of that supremely wonderful power, it was forcibly pressed into a hemispherical pit, with a diameter of over forty meters and a depth of more than seven meters in the deepest part. The entire surface was smooth, like asphalt that had been crushed by a road roller, or even harder!

A curtain of water gushed out from the muddy ground, stretching from forty meters to sixty meters away. This was the deep pit, forty meters in diameter, which absorbed all the water during this heavy rain!

Extreme power is not scary!

What's terrifying is the creature that can control it!

So, as Ye Qingcang charged straight ahead using the reaction force, before the water curtain even rose, he had already covered 300 meters. And when the water curtain finally rose, it was immediately suppressed by the shockwave left by Ye Qingcang's high-speed movement!

The remnants looked so glaring in this circular water curtain!

It was so dazzling that it instilled fear in countless martial artists!

Perhaps, it's more accurate to say that I feel ashamed of my own inferiority!

Although this is just the aftermath.

However, although Ye Qingcang was fast, the distance between them and Startled Salamander's own reaction also gave Startled Salamander time to respond.

to be honest.

Startled Salamander now only needs to step forward.

Under the premise that Internal Force reduces wind resistance.

She can also reach a speed of 500 meters.

That means one mile in one second, and one kilometer in two seconds.

Even compared to Ye Qingcang.

It was only 150 meters per second slower.

However, Jing Startled Salamander's 500 meters and Ye Qingcang's 650 meters are two different concepts. Ye Qingcang's 650 meters utilizes the reaction force of the conflict between heaven and earth and the magnetic field, which puts a tremendous strain on the body. Basically, once the posture is set up, it cannot be changed at will, because if it is changed at will, the body will be damaged under the powerful inertia, including but not limited to the limbs being severed by air pressure. To put it bluntly, he can only run in a straight line. But if he insists on changing moves and is not afraid of death, then it is purely voluntary. All of these restrictions are based on the premise of not harming himself. But Startled Salamander's 500 meters is a speed that allows for flexible changes of direction!

They're like two top-of-the-line race cars.

Ye Qingcang can reach 650 km/h on a straightaway, but he must slow down when cornering. Only by slowing down to below 300 km/h can he guarantee a 100% success rate in cornering. He can also choose not to slow down, but at worst he can rely on his skills or gamble with death. In any case, it is impossible to safely corner.

Startled Salamander can only reach 500 km/h on a straightaway. Even if she floores the gas pedal, she can only reach 500 km/h. However, she can maintain this speed of 500 km/h on a curve. She doesn't even need to consider drifting techniques when cornering; she can rely entirely on the car's performance.

Therefore, it accelerates in a straight line.

Ye Qingcang could leave Startled Salamander far behind.

And then we reached the bend.

Ye Qingcang could only Startled Salamander fumes.

Therefore, Startled Salamander was very clear about her chances of winning against Ye Qingcang. In other words, if she was within 150 meters of Ye Qingcang Ye Qingcang, she would have no chance of dodging his attack. Given Ye Qingcang's physical abilities and the impact of the 650-meter distance, even if she parried with her sword, taking a punch would leave her either dead or crippled. Avoiding the next punch would be even more impossible. However, as long as she was more than 150 meters away from Ye Qingcang Ye Qingcang, he would not be able to hit her. She would have ample time to wear Ye Qingcang down because Ye Qingcang's straight charge was difficult to change direction.

but...

Is that really the case?

Startled Salamander, who was cautiously keeping a distance of more than 200 meters from Ye Qingcang, suddenly caught a glimpse of the slightly upturned corners of Ye Qingcang's mouth as they passed each other.

That was a smile.

Immediately.

Before Startled Salamander could understand what had happened...

Ye Qingcang Ye Qingcang, who had already crossed paths with her and even exposed her left rear to her view, suddenly appeared in front of her!

Quick!

That's too fast!

It's almost at its limit!

There was no time to react!

There wasn't even a flash of light before my eyes; it was as if it appeared out of thin air, and it even maintained that clenched fist charging posture!

One punch!

It hit her in the stomach!

"Buzz!!!"

The broken Fish Scale Armor let out a mournful cry.

Every remaining Armor Leaves was trembling.

They were all desperately trying to share the impact of their master's punch.

Unfortunately, that punch was too powerful.

What's most amazing is that this punch wasn't blocked at the beginning, but rather when the momentum of the charge was nearing its peak, after charging for about a kilometer in one go, and the power reached its zenith, it suddenly appeared!

So don't say that Startled Salamander couldn't react.

If any Grandmaster were here...

They couldn't even react to that punch.

As a result, the Fish Scale Armor, which had lost its Internal Force supply, was eventually shattered. One after another, the bright, jewel-like Armor Leaves flew out in all directions, like powerful bows and crossbows, piercing through all the dead trees and rocks within a hundred meters of Startled Salamander Ni. Some Armor Leaves even flew four or five hundred meters before drawing a beautiful parabola and embedding themselves in the ground, where the soft, rotten soil silently absorbed the impact!

The leaf-like shells that could best absorb the impact all flew away.

The inner layer of soft clothing was even more tattered.

The core of the attack was Ye Qingcang's fist that touched Startled Salamander's lower abdomen.

The clothes on Startled Salamander's back.

In the corresponding position.

It exploded violently!

A patch of fair skin was revealed!

The remaining force from that punch instantly pierced through Startled Salamander's entire body. Startled Salamander's clothes on her limbs were torn apart by the residual force, hanging haphazardly on her body Startled Salamander strands!

The clothes on his back were shattered by the shock.

The core is the very first round hole.

The closer you get to this round hole.

The more thoroughly the clothes are torn, the more complete they are.

At the same time, Startled Salamander, who had just realized that she had been hit, was also directly deprived of physical pain. Although she had reached the Innate Realm before adulthood and had never experienced the pain of menstruation, the training she had received in the past had given her a fairly high ability to withstand blows, as well as endurance.

But she can guarantee it.

This is the greatest pain she has ever endured.

It's like there are countless steel needles.

The punch penetrated her body.

She could clearly feel that it was an impact without any force, but it was this impact that seemed to pierce through her internal organs. Not only that, her muscles, her meridians, and even her bones were all shattered by this blow, just like having a fascia scraped on your legs after running.

It's like separating muscles and tendons.

Even the pain of twisting nerves.

It's truly unbearable.

What terrified her most was that her skeleton was shattered by these forces!

Yes!

Every bone in my body is dislocated!

There are no fancy techniques involved!

There was no scheming or plotting involved!

This seemingly simple attack contained a technique that rendered her powerless to resist in an instant. In other words, even if she were to tear away the Internal Force protecting her internal organs and meridians, her bones would not be able to support her to continue fighting, or even support her to stand up, because she had already heard the sound of her spine dislocating!

spine.

A giant human dragon.

Power source.

Of course, another source of power is the waist, but the spine's role in connecting the upper and lower body is irreplaceable by the waist, making its functions more comprehensive.

The spine is broken.

In mild cases, it can cause hemiplegia.

In severe cases, the person may die on the spot.

That's why Startled Salamander didn't vomit blood this time. Instead, she was wrapped in tattered clothes like a broken sack. Her black hair stood up as if electrified, and then gradually fell down the moment it left Ye Qingcang's fist. She immediately flew up, spanned a hundred meters, and crashed into the muddy ground without any rebound, rolling several times!

This phenomenon also means that Startled Salamander has completely lost all her power!

Just like her current image.

It looks like a fish whose scales have been removed.

It was placed on the cutting board.

At the mercy of others.

It's just that this cutting board might be a bit dirty.

Fortunately, Ye Qingcang didn't care.

"No matter how many times I watch it, it always feels the same—absurdly ridiculous..." In his Sea of Consciousness, Ice Empress's lips twitched slightly. "Flying Thunder God Technique combined with any of your straight-line dash attacks is a guaranteed kill, because its sure-hit nature means your attack can't possibly miss... Unless the opponent's defense can withstand your full-force attack, or unless the opponent has some kind of divine weapon, in which case your punch might very well cut you in two... In short, under normal circumstances, this is pure cheating!"

"This is intelligence warfare."

"Although I don't know anything about her."

"Because she didn't have many scenes in the original work."

"But she doesn't know my information... that's the most fatal point!"

"Strong galaxies have their own advantages."

"Weak galaxies also have their advantages."

"It's like the courtesan in a brothel versus a woman of average looks... You might spend a fortune in front of the courtesan and still not get a second glance, but if you spend a fortune in front of a woman of average looks, you might as well let her look at you for free, let alone turn her head."

"It is precisely because strong galaxies are strong."

"Therefore, the inhibitory force is strong, and the rules of heaven and earth are restrained."

"Precisely because weak galaxies are weak."

"Therefore, the restrictive force is weak, and the rules of heaven and earth are outwardly manifested."

"Of course, the outward and inward manifestation of the rules of heaven and earth have little impact on native Goddess of Life. For example, when I first arrived, I was almost crushed to death by the gravity of heaven and earth. If nothing unexpected happens, at least in this world, I can only move around normally by maintaining a magnetic field state... However, for a non-native Goddess of Life Goddess of Life like me, the rules of heaven and earth are like a key. Whether or not I have them is very important!"

"Just like the Flying Thunder God Technique I just used."

"In the Douluo Star System, I can use this to control 100% of the space."

"Of course, that's just a hypothetical situation."

"If I really had that ability..."

"The God King is nothing but bullshit in front of me."

"I could crush the Divine Realm in the blink of an eye, so this is just a hypothetical scenario."

"In the current Qin's Moon Star System, my original 100% control over the progress may be compressed to one percent, or even one-thousandth, one-ten-thousandth, one-hundred-millionth, or even a smaller percentage."

But it does exist!

Even if it's only one in a trillion!

"Yes, it's very important!"

"Because turning one into two is difficult, but turning zero into one is even more difficult!"

"Perhaps I could once Teleport from a thousand miles away to the location of the mark, but now I can only Teleport a hundred meters... But those hundred meters are often the distance between life and death... Therefore, there's no need to blindly worship strength. As the saying goes, 'Among three people walking together, there must be one who can teach me,' and the same principle applies to heaven and earth!"

Ye Qingcang clenched his fist tightly.

To curb one's arrogance.

Incidentally, I switched the magnetic field back.

Because constantly rotating counterclockwise puts immense pressure on the body.

Conversely, turning in the direction of rotation can relieve stress.

This is what is meant by merging with heaven and earth.

In metaphysical terms, it's about the interaction between heaven and man, although that's a bit of an exaggeration.

"Thinking about it carefully, what you said makes sense."

"The Douluo Star System does indeed have many rare things."

"I won't go into the metals, Five Elements, and earth."

"Just talk about time and space."

"Even if it's just a key, it's a key that many people can't obtain... It's like those stat-adding stories in novels you've read. If you don't master the technique, the stats won't show up on the panel, and no matter how many points you have, they're useless... Mastering the technique is indeed a major hurdle for many people!"

Snow Empress echoed with considerable approval.

Ice Empress nodded in agreement.

However, Ice Empress was even more daring in asking questions than Snow Empress.

He glanced at Jing Ni in the distance, who appeared dead but was actually alive, raised an Startled Salamander, and asked in surprise, "Wait, you spared her life?"

"Uh... this..." Ye Qingcang scratched his head and explained, "Just think of it as me having a collecting habit... Besides, in the original story, she was able to awaken, so I thought I should give her a chance. After all, I'm not someone who likes tragedies."

"I think you're just lusting after her body!"

"The smaller head is controlling the larger head!"

Ice Empress rolled their eyes in annoyance.

Turn your back.

He gestured for Ye Qingcang to leave.

The Snow Empress didn't say anything, but offered a fair reminder: "Whether you have the intention to harm others is up to you, but you can't be too careful... I know you have many tricks up your sleeve, like the Tongue Calamity Extinction Seal, or the Soul Extinguishing Pill, or the Puppet Control Technique. Use them when necessary; I believe you have a sense of right and wrong... Alright, go check on your backup candidate. Spending too much time in the mud isn't good for you..."

"OK."

"I'll leave this to you."

"Please try to persuade her."

"Don't worry, I won't joke around with my own life. Besides, I'm currently carrying the Goddess of Life of both of you on my shoulders."

"I'm gone."

"No need to send it."

Ye Qingcang waved his hand and left the Sea of Consciousness.

Under this torrential rain.

They walked slowly and deliberately towards the distant Startled Salamander.
