Qin Dynasty: Starting with a free Fire Kirin Sword

Almost the instant Lin Qi stepped back, a wisp of icy sword energy swept past the spot where he had just been standing.

Immediately afterwards, a loud "boom" resounded.

The sharp sword energy tore through the air, leaving a clear mark on the screen beside it, which then shattered and scattered in all directions.

The scene before him made Lin Qi's heart skip a beat, and his expression became even more solemn.

At the same time, he quickly moved his right arm and grabbed the Fire Scale Sword hanging at his waist.

With a crisp sound, the Fire Kirin Sword burst from its sheath, its entire body a bright red, making it particularly dazzling in the room.

at the same time,

"Tap, tap, tap," a series of rhythmic footsteps gradually approached, and a figure slowly appeared from outside the door.

The man was dressed in a black robe, and his face was covered by a bronze mask.

The sword in his hand reflected a sharp light.

This unexpected visitor was none other than Lu Goujian, a powerful martial artist whose strength had reached the fifth level of the Grandmaster realm and was known for his killing prowess.

The moment Lu Goujian's gaze fell upon Lin Qi, his deep, cold voice echoed in the room: "Hand over the bronze box, or you will stay here today."

Lin Qi showed no panic, seemingly ignoring the threat.

Not only that, he took an even bolder step and tried to touch the bronze box again.

"act recklessly!"

Lu Goujian's eyes widened in anger, his tone filled with murderous intent.

Immediately afterwards, he sprang up, his sword flashing as it cleaved through the night sky, slashing menacingly towards Lin Qi.

Faced with the fierce attack, Lin Qi remained calm.

With just a raise of his right hand, the Fire Kirin Sword was already aimed at him.

"when!"

When the two met, the sound of metal colliding echoed in the space.

The immense force caused the surrounding objects to be shattered by the invisible shockwave, with fragments flying everywhere.

The explosive power he displayed at that moment surprised even Lu Goujian.

Even when slashing with his sword at full power, Lin Qi managed to block it with just his right hand.

He was forced to retreat several steps and was unable to resume his offensive posture for a moment.

This also allowed him to watch helplessly as Lin Qi easily took away the bronze box.

Once he held the bronze box in his hand, Lin Qi's calm voice drifted over.

"Anyone who can reach the fifth level of the Grandmaster realm is indeed a rare opponent!"

He gazed at Lu Goujian before him, his eyes flashing with subtle emotions—a mixture of admiration and a hint of judgment.

"Hmm?" Lu Goujian frowned slightly, his expression turning even more somber.

As someone who has always walked a tightrope, he is extremely sensitive to all forms of body language.

At this moment, Lin Qi's gaze clearly indicated that he regarded him as a challenger or a target.

This made him frown, feeling displeasure and wariness.

I have always played the role of a hunter, treating each mission target as a goal!

But today, I have become the prey in someone else's eyes?

Besides, he's just a kid who's weaker than me!

How could this not provoke his anger?

"Very well, now you've angered me!"

Lu Goujian spoke coldly, his eyes beneath the mask filled with murderous intent.

"Suffer to death!"

After saying that, he suddenly accelerated and rushed towards his target like a whirlwind.

Seeing this, Lin Qi's lips curled into a calm expression.

Similarly, instead of retreating, he advanced and attacked the opponent head-on.

The two sides exchanged blows, their swords clashing, the sounds echoing continuously.

Clang, clang, clang!

Clang, clang, clang!

Inside the room, the sound of metal clanging was deafening.

Within a few short breaths, they had exchanged dozens of blows.

In almost every confrontation, Lin Qi had the upper hand and forced Lu Goujian to retreat.

At this moment, Lu Goujian had been forced to a corner of the room.

"Bastard!"

"How could Lin Qi possess such immense power?"

"These things weren't mentioned at all in the intelligence!"

After being repelled once again, Lu Goujian's gaze became even more somber.

After numerous clashes, each time Lu Goujian was defeated by Lin Qi, his internal energy and blood would be impacted, and even his hands holding the long sword would tremble slightly.

What surprised Lu Goujian the most was that, according to the intelligence gathered by the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven),

Aside from his exceptional talent, Lin Qi had no other outstanding abilities.

But now, he has shown incredible strength.

With sheer strength, they were able to contend with Lu Goujian and even gain the upper hand.

He tried to find an opportunity to kill Lin Qi, but found it increasingly difficult to achieve.

If things continue like this, we might end up being the losers.

"A fifth-level Grandmaster is actually no match for a second-level Grandmaster?"

"If people find out, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at."

"It seems that we can't deal with Lin Qi using conventional methods!"

Therefore, Lu Goujian stopped his attack.

"Since ordinary methods are useless, then I'll unleash my potential!"

Then, a thick aura of blood burst forth from Lu Goujian's body.

Originally at the early stage of the fifth level of Grandmaster, he rapidly improved and leaped to the peak of the fifth level.

This is a secret technique he mastered, taught by the Net!

By burning their own blood energy, they can significantly increase their strength in a short period of time.

Of course, this kind of improvement comes at a huge cost. After the battle, one's physical strength will be extremely depleted, and one may even lose one's life if facing an ordinary innate expert.

"Ready to fight to the death?"

Upon seeing this, Lin Qi's eyes flickered slightly.

In fact, Lin Qi did not use any special skills in the previous battle.

He forced a fifth-level grandmaster back simply by relying on the power boost provided by the 'Golden Bell Shield'.

This also made him realize that, with his current potential fully unleashed, he could rival anyone at the Grandmaster level.

And on the other side.

As Lu Goujian's fighting prowess increased dramatically, his eyes turned bloodshot, like a raging wild beast.

"boom!"

He strode forward, heading straight for Lin Qi.

He used all his strength in this strike, seemingly intending to kill with a single blow.

"Exactly what I want!"

Upon seeing this, Lin Qi's eyes sharpened, flashing like lightning.

Currently, Lu Goujian is undoubtedly the strongest warrior at the Grandmaster level.

The power of this strike definitely reached the top level of the Grandmaster.

For Lin Qi, this was an excellent opportunity to test his own strength.

"Holy Spirit Sword Technique, Third Form!"

Lin Qi took a step forward and swung his Fire Scale Sword in the air.

Instantly, a huge pale white sword aura emanated from in front of him, illuminating the entire room.

......

"Boom~"

"Boom~"

A small courtyard with an area of ​​over 100 square meters was instantly shattered by the violent impact, and the debris collapsed in all directions.

Dust swirled around them, creating an apocalyptic scene that enveloped the area, and Lin Qi and Lu Goujian were completely submerged.

After a period of time.

The sound of collapse gradually subsided.

Suddenly, a loud bang was heard.

A tremendous sound erupted from the collapsed ruins.

Immediately afterward, the wooden and stone remains covering it were lifted into the air by a force.

at the same time.

A figure radiating a pale golden glow, holding a longsword and a bronze treasure box, stood up steadily and walked out.

The tip of his longsword still held the body of a deceased person—Lin Qi.

Lin Qi is still alive.

However, Lu Goujian, who had reached the fifth level of the Luo Wang Master, had already passed away.

With the protection of the Golden Bell and the third move of the 'Divine Sword', this power...

How could an opponent who relies solely on a secret technique possibly withstand such an attack?

With a single sword strike, the courtyard was shattered into pieces, and the sword force passed through Lu Goujian's body, ending his life.

That's the whole story.

“Click, click, click~”

Lin Qi, having stepped out of the circle of ruins, lightly swung the longsword in his hand.

Lu Goujian's ** was shaken to the ground with a loud "thud," kicking up a cloud of dust.

"The so-called fifth level of Grandmaster is nothing more than this."

Lin Qi looked at the ** on the ground with disdain and said indifferently.

At this moment, he moved his body, and the pale golden bell-shaped light shield that had been protecting him disappeared, and the radiance faded away.

At this time.

A sudden and cold voice came from not far away: "If you can easily deal with a mere fifth-level Grandmaster, what can you do when facing a stronger Grandmaster?"

When the sound fades,

A humanoid phantom dressed in black and wearing a bronze mask quietly appeared not far in front of Lin Qi.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"

Immediately afterwards, several almost inaudible footsteps rang out.

One, two, three, four, five... a total of five people appeared one after another, lined up together, all dressed in black and wearing the same bronze masks. They were clearly a group of people, belonging to the same faction, and were of the same power as Lu Goujian on the ground.

Moreover, six people came at once!

Their powerful auras instantly unfolded, and the pressure of a Grandmaster level swept over Lin Qi.

Feeling this pressure, Lin Qi's brows furrowed slightly.

The pressure of facing a Grandmaster alone might not be much for him.

But when the six grandmasters released their combined pressure, the oppressive feeling was enough to force him to recast 'Golden Bell Protection' to resist.

"Hand over the copper box you're holding and surrender!"

The man in black at the front spoke again in an extremely cold tone, issuing his command.

But at that moment, a new voice broke in.

"Or, how about you give me the box? I won't kill you."

As he spoke, a blurry figure emerged slowly from the darkness to Lin Qi's right.

This person was dressed entirely in purple, wore a dark mask, and acted with an air of mystery.

Immediately behind him,

Two more people appeared to Lin Qi's left: one dressed in black with a white face, and the other dressed in white with a black face. The combination of black and white created an extremely unusual image.

Three different factions emerged in quick succession.

Every faction focused its attention on the bronze box that Lin Qi was clutching tightly in his hand.

Because this unique bronze box became the target of covetousness from many parties,

What follows is bound to be a thrilling showdown.

The front, left, and right sides were all surrounded.

But behind them, all that remained was ruins!

Lin Qi was now surrounded and besieged on all sides.

However, something unexpected happened.

Despite being in enemy territory and possessing strength only at the second level of the Grandmaster realm, Lin Qi

But he stood still, a smile on his face.

Surrounded by numerous Grandmaster-level experts, he actually smiled and said:

"How about we fight each other first, and once a winner is decided, we hand over this bronze box to the victor?"

The moment those words, punctuated by laughter, were spoken, the tense atmosphere instantly eased.

People around Lin Qi couldn't help but look at him.

A strange glint appeared in everyone's eyes.

Regardless of which side ultimately wins, Lin Qi will likely face certain death.

But Lin Qi didn't seem to care about that at the moment.

Instead, he seemed relaxed and content, even smiling.
