Chapter 558: Chapter 550: Elite Hunter

The two injured individuals, one was in the latter stages of the Spirit Qi Realm, while the other had even reached the level of an Immortal Master.

Qin Niu’s target was that middle-aged man in the latter stages of the Spirit Qi Realm.

This person was short in stature with a sleazy face.

Earlier, during the scuffle between Qin Niu and Mazzi, if either Qin Niu or Mazzi were injured, or if a flaw was exposed during the fight, this person might have suddenly struck with a deadly blow.

However, man’s plans are inferior to those of heaven; he didn’t find an opportunity to capitalize on the situation but instead got injured by the explosion.

Pick the soft persimmons to pinch.

This person’s cultivation level was a full major realm weaker than Qin Niu’s, and now he was also seriously injured – if not him, then who else would Qin Niu kill?

Qin Niu immediately turned around and approached this person.

At the same time, Green Demon Bees and Shadow Fire Bees were mobilized.

Mazzi’s self-destruction had just killed several of Qin Niu’s Shadow Fire Bees. However, this loss was negligible for Qin Niu.

Originally, his plan was to feed Mazzi’s corpse to the Green Demon Bees if he could kill Mazzi, in hopes of helping the Green Demon Bees advance to level ten quickly. But since his opponent had self-destructed, Qin Niu had to think of another way.

First, gather the three Immortal Ribbons and get through this challenge.

What Qin Niu did not expect was that the heavily injured Immortal Master actually made the first move.

With a single sword strike, he killed the man in the latter stages of the Spirit Qi Realm and snatched away the Immortal Ribbon.

Seeing how fierce this person was, Qin Niu immediately stopped in his tracks and recalled the poison bees that he had released. Despite being seriously injured in Mazzi’s self-destruction, this person’s combat strength was profoundly formidable.

Qin Niu was not sure he would come out on top if he approached now.

After the Immortal Master killed the short man with a sword, it seemed that he had expended a great deal of energy; his body kept swaying, looking like he might collapse at any moment.

It seemed as if he was at the end of his strength.

Qin Niu had been ready to give up on this target, but seeing the Immortal Master’s weakness, he immediately contemplated killing the man and seizing the Immortal Ribbons. However, after just a few steps forward and a careful observation, he still noticed something amiss.

The Immortal Master appeared to be an old man in his fifties, with grey hair and a lean figure.

Logically, with such severe injuries, even if he did not fall, he should at least be sitting on the ground to rest.

Yet, the old man leaned on his sword, his body continuously shaking, but he never sat down.

Moreover, Qin Niu had a strong intuition of extreme danger emanating from this person.

He had always trusted his intuitions.

An Immortal Master, despite being gravely injured, still posed an extreme danger to him. Either the man possessed a powerful trump card, or his injuries were feigned.

The most elite hunters often appeared in the guise of prey.

The sword strike that killed the short man earlier was quite decisive.

With these premonitions, Qin Niu decisively chose to wait and see, not rushing to take action.

If the risk was too high, he would give up decisively.

He could control his greed, but that did not mean others could as well.

The Immortal Master who had suffered minor injuries unexpectedly returned, this time with a clear target – the heavily injured old man.

Because the old man already possessed two Immortal Ribbons. If he was killed, one could immediately pass through the Second Immortal Gate.

This temptation was too much for most to resist.

The lightly injured Immortal Master possessed profound Step-Method Martial Skills. Earlier, it was by relying on this set of skills that he sped away from the center of the explosion, thus avoiding a worse fate.

In the blink of an eye, he was already behind the old man.

The old man appeared grievously injured and tottering on the brink of collapse, seemingly unaware even when someone approached him from behind.

“Die!”

The lightly injured Immortal Master, who looked to be in his thirties or forties, very young, struck with extreme ruthlessness.
