Chapter 346: Fireworks

~11 min read 2,192 words

There were no streetlights in the alley, only the faint moonlight shining down, illuminating the uneven ground.

Li Fei walked alone in the small alley, the surrounding shadows covering him.

Suddenly, the wall to his left vibrated.

Boom—

A fist wrapped in electric light smashed through the wall!

Bricks and stones shattered, and countless tiny fragments shot toward Li Fei like bullets.

Along with these fragments came a dazzling electric light.

The pitch-black alley was instantly lit up!

The "Bullet Shell" team had made their move against Li Fei; the first person to attack was a peak Qi Transformation stage martial artist who cultivated lightning-attribute force!

But his attack was merely a feint; creating such a spectacular display was only to attract Li Fei's attention and to mask the sound of the gunshot that would follow.

On a building over 180 meters away in a straight line, "Bullet Shell" had first stood up to take a glance, confirmed Li Fei's position, and then immediately crouched back down, hiding himself to avoid exposure.

A few seconds later, as his companion moved against Li Fei, almost at the same moment the sound from over there arrived, "Bullet Shell" stood up in a flash.

Raising the gun, aiming, and firing—the entire process was completed within 0. seconds!

Bang—

A distinct flame erupted from the muzzle of the Eagle Strike Generation III rifle in "Bullet Shell's" hand, and a modified bullet tore through the air in a high-speed spiral, crossing the distance of less than two hundred meters at nearly three times the speed of sound, shooting toward Li Fei's head!

When suddenly attacked, one would normally mobilize their force and turn to deal with the incoming enemy.

And "Bullet Shell's" extraordinary ability, "No Thought," allowed him to hide his killing intent almost perfectly, making it impossible for others to perceive.

If Li Fei chose to turn and face the enemy, it would be almost impossible to have enough time to mobilize his force for protection.

Therefore, before firing, "Bullet Shell" had already foreseen the scene of Li Fei's head blooming.

Just like all his previous successful assassinations, there was no difference.

Hum—

A brilliant golden light bloomed in the alley, and the bullet was deflected by the Vajra Force, striking out a beautiful spray of sparks.

"A pity."

"Bullet Shell" revealed a look of regret.

Li Fei's first choice had been to mobilize his Vajra Force to protect his entire body, and the force circulated at an extremely high speed, blocking the bullet he had fired in time.

Having such a reaction meant the opponent was very cautious and had been on guard early on!

"Was I discovered while scouting the location yesterday?"

"Bullet Shell" thought to himself.

In that case, the opponent's "Danger Perception" ability was even stronger than anticipated!

Having missed the first strike, "Bullet Shell" did not withdraw, but instead let out a low whistle.

Execute the second plan!

In the alley, Li Fei had chosen to mobilize his force to protect his whole body the moment the enemy broke through the wall.

He did not know the enemy would use firearms; he was just taking a precaution.

When "Bullet Shell" fired at him, he only had a vague sense of it, and it was not until the bullet hit him that he truly discovered "Bullet Shell" firing from the rooftop.

"Not bad."

Li Fei thought to himself.

From the very beginning, Hao Yi had specifically trained his "Danger Perception" ability, intending to make it the core of his tactical system.

Later, Li Fei's mental power far exceeded that of martial artists at the same realm, which in turn caused his extraordinary ability of "Danger Perception" to rise accordingly.

Still later, he also cultivated the path of techniques, and the improvement of his spiritual power continued to make "Danger Perception" even stronger.

Regarding this ability alone, many powerhouses at the Dao Foundation stage with similar extraordinary abilities were not as good as Li Fei!

So, that the opponent could vaguely bypass his perception surprised Li Fei a little.

Boom—

The opponent who had broken through the wall struck Li Fei's chest with a punch, sounding like a heavy hammer hitting a large bell, emitting a sound like a great temple bell.

The attacker was shaken back by Li Fei's protective Vajra Force, and then he took advantage of the momentum to retreat through the hole he had broken.

While retreating, he threw out both fists, and several iron chains interwoven with lightning circled around Li Fei, then rapidly contracted.

These chains were condensed from force; the attacker used this move to temporarily trap Li Fei because hand grenades were being thrown over from behind the wall!

This was the second plan "Bullet Shell" had prepared for Li Fei: grenade bombardment!

Clang—

Li Fei drew his blade, and the golden blade light slashed through the lightning chains.

The next second, the grenades landed and exploded with a roar.

Boom, boom, boom, boom—

The earth shook, and an entire section of the wall was blown apart and collapsed.

In the darkness, smoke and dust filled the air, followed by a flash of golden light.

Li Fei, his entire body wrapped in golden light as if he had been gilded with a golden body, passed through the smoke and dust unscathed and chased after the enemy.

Bang!

"Bullet Shell" fired another shot.

Although the Vajra Force was powerful, Li Fei had first switched from offense to defense and then endured the bombardment of several grenades; at this moment, his protective force was at its most vulnerable.

"Bullet Shell's" judgment was correct; this bullet did indeed penetrate Li Fei's protective force and struck his head.

And then, there was no then.

Li Fei did not slow down and caught up with the retreating martial artist.

He swung his blade in a horizontal slash, and the opponent raised his left arm to block; the blade light instantly tore through the opponent's lightning force, and the Ghost-Slaying Blade struck the opponent's steel bracer, carving a deep mark.

At the same time, the opponent threw a punch from a distance toward Li Fei's face, and a streak of lightning force was whipped out like a long lash.

Li Fei dodged to the side, and just as he prepared to exert force, a bullet accurately hit his waist.

Although this bullet failed to break his protective force, the impact was enough to disrupt his movement.

Snap—

Li Fei's movement was a beat slow, and he was struck in the face by the lightning force; white lightning and golden light shone in reflection of each other.

The next second, a bullet followed closely and shot Li Fei in the face!

First attacked by the lightning force, the protective force on his face had become thin, and before Li Fei could circulate his force to make adjustments, the bullet arrived, and the Vajra Force was pierced through again.

This time, Li Fei tilted his head in time, and the bullet grazed his cheek.

His eyes were calm as he stepped forward, swung his blade to slash again, and simultaneously entered the "Tyrant Body" state.

The opponent retreated while throwing punches to engage Li Fei.

Boom! Boom!

The opponent crashed through two more walls in succession and retreated into another alley.

Li Fei followed closely, slashing the opponent three times in a row, using the Armor-Piercing Style to completely shatter the opponent's steel bracer!

During this process, "Bullet Shell" fired two more shots; one accurately caught the node of Li Fei's exertion, using the bullet's impact to disrupt Li Fei's movement, while the other coordinated with his companion's attack, once again using a bullet to pierce Li Fei's protective force and strike Li Fei's neck.

One must know that Li Fei was moving at high speed.

Such marksmanship could already be described as miraculous!

It was a pity that although two bullets hit Li Fei in succession, Li Fei was completely unaffected, and his offensive became even more ferocious.

Just as this opponent was about to be unable to hold on, another martial artist joined the fight.

Seeing this, Li Fei's body glowed with flowing golden light as he performed the Vajra Seal: Roc.

The next second, he disappeared from where he stood and instantly appeared behind the martial artist who was wielding the lightning force.

The opponent immediately leaped forward, but a long wound was still slashed across his back, and blood splattered out.

The newly joined martial artist held a blade in both hands and slashed toward Li Fei.

Li Fei turned, held his blade in one hand for a diagonal slash, and simultaneously performed the Vajra Seal: Dragon-Elephant.

Bang—

Another gunshot rang out; this bullet did not shoot at Li Fei, but accurately struck the edge of Li Fei's blade.

The bullet did not create a counter-impact with the blade, but instead gave it a push in the direction of Li Fei's exertion.

Li Fei's blade had already been assisted by the Vajra Seal: Dragon-Elephant and was being swung with ferocity; being pushed by the bullet, the momentum of the blade immediately became chaotic.

Hum—

The enemy holding the blade with both hands took the opportunity to avoid Li Fei's blade edge and slashed at Li Fei's chest.

This slash still failed to directly break Li Fei's protective Vajra Force, but the next second, a bullet followed closely, penetrating the already weakened Vajra Force and striking Li Fei right in the heart!

Li Fei did not even sway; he exerted force under his feet and disappeared from where he stood again.

This time he did not attack the two martial artists, but charged toward the building where "Bullet Shell" was located.

He had been heading in this direction from the moment he started the pursuit, and at this moment, he was less than fifty meters from the building.

Seeing Li Fei coming for him, "Bullet Shell" put away his gun without hesitation, ran in another direction, and then jumped directly off the building.

He jumped down from the fifth floor, rolled upon landing, and quickly retreated along a predetermined route.

"This guy's hard-body technique is too exaggerated! It deviates too much from the intelligence!"

"Bullet Shell" analyzed the reasons for the failure of this operation in his heart while running.

Boom—

The next second, the wall behind was smashed, and Li Fei, covered in golden light, rushed out from behind the wall, the golden stream of light drawing a long line in the dark night.

"How could it be this fast?!"

Shell finally felt a bit panicked.

Based on his observations just now, although Li Fei's speed after bursting with full power was fast, it shouldn't have been enough to prevent him from escaping, as his greatest strengths, besides marksmanship, were his movement techniques.

But Li Fei's speed once again exceeded his expectations.

It was because Li Fei had utilized Blood Rage to gain power, then used that even greater power to propel his body, thereby increasing his speed by a significant margin.

A few seconds later, Li Fei caught up to Shell.

Shell turned around abruptly, aimed his muzzle at Li Fei's head, and pulled the trigger.

Bang!

Hum—

The bullet was deflected.

Just as Shell was about to change direction to skirmish and fire at Li Fei simultaneously, his mind suddenly shook, and an endless sea of blood appeared before his eyes.

When two Strength-Refining martial artists from Shell's team passed through the hole in the wall and chased after them, they happened to see Li Fei decapitate Shell with a single blade strike.

Several hundred meters away, Li Fei turned to look at the two of them.

The two Strength-Refining martial artists exchanged a glance and chose to charge toward Li Fei.

They felt that Shell's gunfire must have already severely wounded Li Fei.

"Sigh—"

Just as the two were about to rush in front of Li Fei, they heard a heavy sigh.

A dozen seconds later, there were two more corpses on the ground.

Li Fei stood in a pool of blood, his entire body wreathed in golden light, his expression solemn, radiating a faint sense of Zen.

Before killing Shell, he had used another form of the Vajra Seal, called—Vajra Seal: Truth-Listener.

This form of the Vajra Seal could significantly enhance Li Fei's sensory abilities for a short period.

The reason he used Vajra Seal: Truth-Listener was not to dodge Shell's bullets, but to ensure there were no other people nearby watching this battle.

Originally, Li Fei had intended to leave someone alive, but the strength of Shell's team exceeded his expectations, and in the end, he had no choice but to kill them.

At the same time, he needed to ensure this battle was not seen by others to avoid exposing his true combat strength.

Next, Li Fei spent time cleaning up the battlefield and tidying up the three corpses; finally, he even deliberately used Shell's gun to shoot himself twice, causing himself to be wounded.

More than twenty minutes later, the patrolling inspectors arrived at the scene.
