Chapter 81 Suppression from the Trophic Level of the Food Chain



Xue Jiuyao was born in an ordinary family in Chou City, Kaiyangzhou. He had neither a wealthy family background nor extensive connections.

But when he embarked on the path of cultivation, he was not panicked about his future.

Because he was a well-deserved genius who awakened his talent on his own at the age of 16.

With this one-in-a-million qualification, he was able to break free from some of the shackles that weighed on him.

From a commoner, he became a commoner with potential.

The family of three finally moved out of the old building that didn't even have a stair light. They now have a new home and can eat enough food.

However, once people have tasted the sweetness of climbing, they will always want to climb higher.

Xue Jiuyao is a strong and proud man. He is unwilling to remain mediocre among ordinary people.

So, he became a disciple of the Yinling Sect entrenched in Chou City, and began to hone himself and practice diligently.

In just two years, Xue Jiuyao broke through the barrier of the Xuan Realm that ordinary people would never be able to reach in their lifetime.

After that, he began to go out and gain experience, becoming a bounty hunter until today.

He knew very well that his path of cultivation had been too smooth, and sooner or later, he would face his own "disaster".

but……

"Bang!"

Xue Jiuyao rolled around in a panic on the moon-white ground covered with gravel and cracks.

The huge, twisted tentacles brushed past him, and the strong wind made his skin feel a little stinging.

He tried desperately to regulate his breathing, but his heart was beating uncontrollably fast in his chest, making a deafening "thump thump" sound.

Xue Jiuyao looked up, and scarlet blood fell into his bright golden pupils.

He was clearly only at the peak of the second level of the Profound Realm, and was clearly one level lower than him.

But when he looked into Zi Sui's bright eyes, ripples of fear would unconsciously arise in his heart.

The fear is building up and the instinct is clamoring to escape.

Xue Jiuyao was lying on the ground, and he only heard his "death calamity" say: "Congratulations on entering the second stage, keep up the good work~"

Ferocious tentacles appeared out of nowhere beside him and suddenly climbed over and bit him.

He didn't have time to think about what kind of monster Yue Jian was. He could only roll over and jump up to avoid the attack.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."

Wei He missed the target and swept in the opposite direction, leaving only the wreckage of cargo boxes and pillars in its path, shaking the entire dock.

Fine feather powder floated in the air, enveloping the cage that Xue Jiuyao had originally set up for his prey, isolating and sealing off everything.

At this moment, Xue Jiuyao could only dodge in a panic, relying on his perseverance and will to survive to drive himself to struggle and escape.

However, the pride of a cultivator deep in his soul made him feel a little unwilling.

He clenched the two-palm-long broad-bladed short knife in his hand and forced himself to stop the instinctive trembling of his body.

"tread!"

A group of containers appeared on the route. Xue Jiuyao did not stop, stepped vertically onto the container door, and then flew over the attack from Wei He.

The container was smashed to pieces, and wood chips from the broken solid wood flew everywhere.

Xue Jiuyao turned his body, his spiritual energy gathered on the blade and did not disperse, and he chopped down the short knife in his hand!

“clang!”

The sharp blade was easily blocked by the crimson blade scales.

The full force of the Xuanjie Sanjie's attack only left a thin scratch on the scales.

Afterwards, the blade scales stood upright, and the tail seemed to stretch gently, blooming like petals, with a slightly terrifying beauty.

A huge force suddenly came from Xue Jiuyao's sword, knocking him away instantly.

Immediately afterwards, before the figure flying backwards fell, the dark red claws were like flowing blood. It slowly moved forward, wrapped around, and trapped the prey.

Xue Jiuyao was grasped by eight claws, and the blade scales were stuck under his flesh.

Then, the crimson-purple armor emerged from the crack in space, pierced into his body, and absorbed his spiritual energy to grow inward.

The nerves in the hand were severed, and the knuckles holding the knife lost strength and opened uncontrollably.

The dagger fell, making a crisp sound when it hit the ground.

The turmoil at the dock ended in less than half a minute and suddenly fell into silence.

The battle is over.

Click!

As the weapon fell out of his hand, Xue Jiuyao seemed to hear the sound of something breaking.

It seemed like his bones, the space around him, or something indescribable spiritual.

He stared blankly at the monster who called himself Yue Jian jumping down from the top of the cargo box and slowly walking towards him.

Only then did he realize that the other party had not moved at all from beginning to end.

He wanted to ask why, why as a person in the second realm of Xuanjie, he could possess such terrifying combat power.

The huge gap in combat power that almost breaks the rules of realm division can no longer be explained by things like talent, qualifications, and potential.

This is more like a tiger hunting cattle and sheep, or a hawk preying on pikas.

It is the species advantage of the top predator and the suppression from the trophic level of the food chain.

The fear could not be contained and burst forth.

He was swallowed up silently by the Hezi.

Zi Sui watched coldly as Xue Jiuyao's body was gradually eaten away by the armor and his head was taken out intact.

He was thinking about what to do next to maximize his benefits.

The head in front of him had golden eyes wide open, and the vivid fear made the eyes not dim, but still sparkling.

Zi Sui stared at the golden color, his eyes full of scrutiny as if he were looking at an uncarved piece of fine material.

"Well, it would be a bit rude to just send it over like that."

A branch split from the cartilage below the shoulder blade, and then gently grew upwards from the broken neck.
