Chapter 264 First Practical Test! A Return to the Real Planet Ribit! The Pressure of Real Combat! Evolution!
Let me briefly explain the rules of the practical assessment.
Old Rabbit looked at Qin Fang, his eyes clouded, and said, "Next, I will take you to the real Planet Ribite, where there will be a group of... my former people. Your task is to kill as many of them as possible."
"The initial assessment has no difficulty level. The entire assessment lasts for 24 hours. During this process... the Myriad Realms Battle Domain will seal the power on your panel, and you can only use your true cultivation level to face them."
"Of course, this restriction is not absolute. You can choose to break the restriction at any time and use the power on the Myriad Realms Battlefield class panel... But once you do that, the test will be over."
"Kill as many enemies as you encounter within 24 hours. Understand?"
Qin Fang nodded seriously upon hearing this.
It was clearly stated that you must go to Planet Ribite, kill enemies, and for 24 hours, you cannot use your character panel or skills.
"Since that's the case..."
Old Rabbit glanced at Qin Fang and sighed softly, "Let's go."
It got up, went into the inner room, and lightly tapped the air with its finger, creating ripples.
"Go in by yourself."
It turned to look at Qin Fang.
Qin Fang took a deep breath, walked to the ripples, thought about what was behind him, rummaged through the panel, and took out a long sword.
This is an epic longsword, glowing with purple light and imbued with powerful skills.
However, this powerful skill is also part of the 'laws', and it comes from the Myriad Realms Battle Domain. In front of a law-based expert... this thing is useless.
As for why it didn't work...
Old Rabbit didn't say.
Qin Fang could only study it himself later.
However, it's sufficient for use as a 'weapon'.
He weighed the knife in his hand, then looked at Old Rabbit and nodded.
Then he stepped into the ripples.
...
After a dizzying sensation, Qin Fang found himself outside the 'Pure Land'.
Looking up, all I saw was an apocalyptic scene.
He took a deep breath and looked at his control panel.
Sure enough, the entire panel was now bathed in a crimson light, with the word 'Forbidden' written in large letters on it.
But with a thought, the forbidden word will disappear, and you can use the panel skills.
"Twenty-four hours... to kill as many monsters as possible here?"
Qin Fang turned his head and looked around.
The planet Ribit has become a wasteland, cracked everywhere, and ruins are everywhere, with black as the main color... as if it had been burned and then weathered by wind and sun over the years.
Qin Fang, carrying his knife, began to move forward.
Now that he no longer has stealth abilities, he has to be extra careful.
Walking on this land that resembled an ancient battlefield, Qin Fang's expression gradually became solemn... What exactly is the Battle Domain of Ten Thousand Races? Why do they do such things?
He couldn't understand it.
Just then, a sudden roar came.
Qin Fang was startled and subconsciously turned her head to look.
The roar was sharp and piercing, extremely violent. He followed the sound and soon saw several irritable rabbits.
These grumpy rabbits are very similar to the grumpy rabbits in his memory, somewhat reminiscent of the Abyss instance.
They were enveloped in black light, wore tattered armor, and had bloodshot eyes that exuded a savage aura.
They were large and imposing, the shortest of them being two or three meters tall, a head taller than Casa and his men.
They roam this ancient battlefield, their eyes bloodshot.
Qin Fang frowned, not quite understanding why the Myriad Realms Battle Domain insisted on turning them into this state...
But soon, he let out a soft breath, shook his head, and his gaze became serious.
...Whatever the Myriad Realms Battle Domain is planning to do, it's not something that a little Karami like him can get involved in right now.
He was powerless to resist.
...The newbie protection period is over. Today on Planet Ribite is tomorrow on Earth.
He had no other choice.
The only thing I can do is try my best to become stronger.
When he is powerless to resist or make rules, his only option is to obey the rules.
Within the bounds of the rules, try to climb as high as possible.
These three grumpy rabbits were clearly not energy entities, but rather flesh and blood.
Like the little rabbits in the Pure Land... Qin Fang couldn't see their health bars.
He raised the knife in his hand, gradually narrowed his eyes, and then cautiously and slowly approached.
Three grumpy rabbits roamed about, their eyes bloodshot, like raging wild beasts.
They wandered aimlessly, yet seemed to be searching for something.
It's getting closer.
One hundred meters.
Fifty meters.
Thirty meters...
As he got closer, Qin Fang's expression grew increasingly serious.
My heart started racing.
This wasn't his first time fighting monsters.
However... fighting monsters with your own strength and fighting monsters through the interface... are two completely different concepts!
It has a control panel, just like playing a game, and he's a super account, practically cheating... He can use all sorts of skills with a thought, he's full of confidence.
But now, he needs to find his own opportunity, and then... fight!
Everything needs to be done by yourself.
Take a step forward, take a step back, sprint, dodge, swing...
You have to do all the actions yourself!
This feeling is completely different.
These monsters look very strong. Will this strike kill them? If I alert these three, will they react as I expect? If they retaliate, will I be able to react in time?
More and more chaotic thoughts surfaced, making Qin Fang's steps feel heavy and his breathing somewhat disordered.
He quickly snapped back to his senses, and sweat instantly beaded on his forehead.
"...Is this the pressure of real combat?"
As Old Rabbit once said, some people perform terribly in their first real battle, even going completely blank and standing motionless...
At the time, he thought it was somewhat exaggerated.
But when you actually face it... you realize just how terrifying this pressure really is!
It truly is as tall as a mountain!
Even he felt waves of palpitations and panic.
He stopped immediately, still shaken, and caught his breath to calm himself.
...With your mind racing with wild thoughts, rushing up there would probably just be making you food for someone else!
This must be adjusted!
He was panting heavily, and his palms, which were gripping the knife, were sweaty.
It took several minutes for my violently beating heartbeat to finally subside somewhat.
Then he bit his lip tightly and stared intently at the three irritable rabbits that were less than twenty meters away from him.
Finally, he gritted his teeth.
Oh shit!
Let's give it our all!
If you don't even dare to engage in real combat, what are you talking about in terms of spiritual practice?!
The next moment, Qin Fang, knife in his right hand, charged out instantly!
He naturally used his movement techniques, and his speed was astonishing.
Once he actually broke through, Qin Fang felt as if the whole world had slowed down.
This is an experience unlike anything I've ever had when fighting using a control panel.
Using the control panel, a thought triggers a skill, hits the monster, and the monster loses health... it's that simple.
But now, as he used his movement technique to rush towards the three irritable rabbits, he felt that 'time' had slowed down significantly.
He even saw the three grumpy rabbits turn their heads and their expressions after being startled.
The moment they saw him, their eyes brightened, revealing a savage look. Then, they turned and swung a claw at Qin Fang, who was rushing towards them.
The claws tore through the air and reached his face in the blink of an eye. Qin Fang could even smell an indescribable stench, and felt a sharp gust of wind at his face.
...If you were hit by that, your skin would probably be torn open and blood would flow out instantly.
Almost instinctively, he stumbled, his mind racing, and in a flash, his eyes scanned the area, finding an opening in the three grumpy rabbits' attack.
...From there, we can avoid this attack!
Qin Fang's reaction speed was extremely fast at this moment. Almost the instant the judgment appeared in his mind, his body had already moved.
He moved like a gust of wind, dodging the claws of the three grumpy rabbits in an instant, and passing through the gap between them.
He could clearly see the furious rabbits exerting force with their bodies, and after swinging their claws forcefully, their bodies moved involuntarily.
...Give it a slash here, and it should be able to sever this irritable rabbit's leg!
A thought flashed through Qin Fang's mind.
And so he did just that.
The long sword in his hand instantly transformed into a white streak, slashing out in a flash.
He only made one slash.
After the strike, a scream of pain rang out, followed by a splatter of blood. The leg detached from the rabbit's body after the longsword cleaved through the wound. The rabbit let out a piercing scream and collapsed to the ground...
Blood!
This was the first time that a single slash hadn't resulted in a string of numbers appearing above someone's head, but rather... real, warm, even foul-smelling... blood!
A look of shock flashed across Qin Fang's eyes...
My heart started beating even faster.
This kind of swift and decisive battle is an unprecedented experience.
Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw two other grumpy rabbits turn around and pounce on him at the same time. Their faces were ferocious, and their claws were like awls, aimed straight at his head.
After this strike, Qin Fang also lost his balance, a situation that would never occur in a panel-based combat scenario.
But at this moment, his mind was working at a speed far exceeding his usual pace, and almost instantly, he had come up with an excellent solution.
He fell down due to inertia, his left hand touching the ground, and then he suddenly exerted force, his body twisting violently, and he sprang out.
The two irritable rabbits missed their first pounce, but without any hesitation or pause, they pounced again, their sharp claws slashing.
Qin Fang rebounded with the force, and seeing them chasing after him while in the air, his mind raced. The moment he landed, he exerted his source energy and muscles simultaneously.
boom!
With a loud bang, he instantly accelerated and dodged to the side.
The attack from the two grumpy rabbits almost grazed his body.
He even felt a warm sensation rush through his waist.
At that moment, another streak of light flashed by...
He keenly sensed that at this moment, another slash would be enough to decapitate one of the rabid rabbits.
The blade flashed past, but the irritable rabbit reacted quickly, raising its hands to instinctively block the attack.
So the knife, which was originally aimed at its neck, only struck its arm.
The knife was very sharp, and the force of the strike was considerable. With a soft "whoosh," the irritable rabbit's right arm flew off.
Blood gushed out, mixed with screams.
The furious rabbit charged forward and rolled several meters away.
The last, grumpy rabbit was completely unaffected. Its two companions were injured, and it let out a scream. The next moment, Qin Fang saw that light was emanating from its hand.
This is……
Source energy?
Qin Fang was astonished.
Does the grumpy rabbit also use source energy?
The next moment, a loud bang was heard, and the opponent threw a punch at Qin Fang out of thin air.
An invisible force surged forth, causing the air to vibrate!
Qin Fang was greatly alarmed, as he keenly sensed a force approaching.
Almost instinctively, Qin Fang raised his long sword and blocked in front of himself.
The next moment...
Boom!!!
With a deafening roar, Qin Fang felt a tremendous force slam into the longsword.
The powerful force sent his body flying.
This force caused his right hand to go numb, making it almost impossible for him to hold the knife.
Almost instinctively, he instantly activated his source energy, channeling it through the twelve meridians and heading straight for his right hand!
As the source energy surged, the Twelve True Men, strengthened by his own power, widened his right hand, instantly suppressing the shockwave. The long sword, which he had previously been unable to hold, was now firmly in his grasp.
Looking at the irritable rabbit, it seemed somewhat exhausted after its attack. After staggering a couple of steps, it still pounced on Qin Fang.
His eyes were bloodshot, radiating murderous intent!
Qin Fang suddenly steadied himself; the power he gained from combining the source energy with his muscles was greater than he had imagined.
Without any hesitation, the moment the opponent pounced, his source energy surged and gathered in his right hand.
The meridians have already been cleared once, and the power gathered this time is immense.
The first of the Nine Slashes of Xun Wind!
boom!
A burst of dazzling light erupted, and in an instant, Qin Fang unleashed twelve strikes.
Twelve dazzling blades of light slashed straight at the irritable rabbit.
The irritable rabbit was in the air when a series of "poof poof poof" sounds rang out.
The next moment, it trembled all over, and then its eyes instantly lost their luster.
Crash!!
This normally grumpy rabbit was instantly reduced to dozens of pieces!
Fresh blood burst open.
It poured over Qin Fang's head and soaked him completely.
Qin Fang stood there, stunned, panting heavily... That last strike had drained nearly half of his source energy...
No further information?
He was somewhat stunned.
Just then, a roar rang out. Qin Fang turned his head and saw two other ferocious rabbits struggling to get up and continue fighting.
They were severely injured, but their eyes showed no fear, only rage and murderous intent.
The fierce look in his eyes sent a shiver down Qin Fang's spine. The next moment, without any hesitation, he raised his long sword and charged forward.
Pfft!
After two cuts.
Two rabbit heads shot into the air, gushing blood.
Then, the scene returned to calm.
...
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Fang, who was standing there breathing heavily, finally let out a long breath...
"Is this... real combat?"
He murmured.
Then, subconsciously, I looked around...
The three grumpy rabbits all died tragically, their bodies left in pieces.
The stench of fresh blood permeated the air.
"It wasn't an illusion... When I actually charged out in combat, time did seem to slow down... I could react to their movements and find a way to deal with them in a short time..."
Qin Fang stared blankly into thought.
"Even the fastest human reaction time would be impossible to achieve in such a violent situation..."
Qin Fang looked at his hands.
"Source energy..."
"Cultivation..."
"evolution……"
"I have truly evolved!"
"Although the body is still made of flesh and blood, in other aspects it far surpasses that of ordinary humans."
"No matter how much you train, you can only improve your neural reaction speed within its limits. Otherwise, you can only anticipate what's happening in advance."
"But my reaction speed has clearly far exceeded the limits of human beings."
"This can only be achieved if evolution has occurred at the genetic level!"
He stared blankly at his hands.
His eyes gradually became brighter and brighter...
