Chapter 190 Killing Intent
The assailant's move was simply unbelievably beautiful, not something a human could easily do.
But this happened in the end when Xiang Nan's eyelids were lowered. As long as he saw the enemy's attack, he would have a way to deal with it.
Just as the man was about to cut Xiang Nan's neck, Xiang Nan pointed his left hand backwards and stabbed the back of the man who was coiling around his left arm.
The man was in pain and his body stiffened. Xiang Nan swung his saber with his right hand to cut the man's waist. At this moment, the other man's legs hooked onto the tree trunk and his body swung down. He grabbed the man on Xiang Nan's arm and pulled him up.
Xiang Nan's saber missed, and at a glance, the three of them disappeared again.
Xiang Nan wiped his eyes and used his lightning gaze to search. A shadow hiding behind a tree suddenly flashed in his field of vision, exceeding the range of his eyes.
When Xiang Nan turned his head to search again, he saw a person pouncing towards him.
Boom! Xiang Nan used the giant saber to meet the short blade. After a single bombardment, his right foot heavily kicked the man in the stomach. In the limit space, the man was able to grab Xiang Nan's right leg with both hands and twist it violently.
Xiang Nan's entire body twisted and spun, soaring into the air. Another person on the left borrowed strength to attack, using a short blade to stab Xiang Nan's temple.
Xiang Nan used the hilt of his saber to block the attack on the left. He raised his saber high and a thin beam of sunlight fell on the blade.
Sun God Technique, "Little Sun Tempering".
The expressions of the three changed slightly. They noticed that Xiang Nan's strength had suddenly increased dramatically, but they retreated without any reluctance to fight.
Xiang Nan wanted to chase after him, but he found that his target had been completely lost.
This feeling of punching cotton made Xiang Nan so angry that he wanted to raise his head and roar angrily.
He had never been toyed with like this.
Thus, he subconsciously dissipated the quenching sun that he had used the Nine Transformations of Thunder to imitate, that was, the small quenching sun.
The problem was that Xiang Nan could not track them down.
"You can't fight in such an open space." Xiang Nan had also discovered that the three of them had come and gone without a trace, and he would not be able to obtain any benefits from fighting in such a place.
Taking advantage of the time the three of them left, he hurriedly ran over a snowy valley and arrived at a cave on the opposite side of the mountain.
The cave was very deep, about ten meters long, but its width was just right. It could only accommodate seven or eight people walking side by side.
Xiang Nan put the little girl down and crossed his legs to guard the cave entrance. No matter how strange the movements of the three people were, if they wanted to attack him, they had to enter through the cave entrance.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" Xiang Nan sat down cross-legged. The giant saber stabbed into the ground, continuously gasping for breath. "What's the situation? Why aren't there any rumors about the actions of those three people?"
"We can't find them with just our eyes." Suddenly, the little girl behind him suddenly spoke.
"Huh?" Xiang Nan turned around and saw that the little girl's body was trembling and was about to freeze. He hurriedly hugged her in his arms and treated her with the Vast Heaven Pure Essence Technique. He asked, "How do you know this?"
The little girl's face slowly regained its color after being treated with pure elemental energy. She said, "I was born in a large family of martial artists. The elders discussed martial artists all day long, so I learned a little from what I heard and witnessed."
"So it's like this." Xiang Nan nodded and asked, "What do you mean you can't track them with your eyes?"
The girl said, "You are a disciple of the sect, and the cultivation methods and martial skills that the sect provides to our disciples are nothing more than body refinement, qi refinement, and realm improvement."
"All of the martial skills you have learned are for fighting, but all of the methods they have learned are for killing people."
"To be honest, your combat skills are already outstanding. Otherwise, you would never have survived until now."
Xiang Nan was rather surprised. When the little girl spoke, she was not childish at all. She looked like an old martial arts expert. He couldn't help but laugh in his heart. He scratched the little girl's nose and said, "You know a lot."
The little girl said, "Those three people just now are clearly young experts from the dark forces. If I'm not mistaken, they should belong to the killer group."
"En … you said that, it seems like that's true." Xiang Nan nodded silently.
The dark forces had all sorts of organizations, just like the sects. Some of them were good at using poison, some were good at assassinating, and some were good at creating chaos.
The killer group was not a separate organization, but a group of killer organizations.
The little girl said, "Judging from the skills of those three people just now, they are very similar to the young killers of the Flying Leaf Organization."
"These people have received a lot of cruel training from birth. Every move they learn is aimed at killing people."
"They can approach you silently. Without your knowledge, they can take your life. They are the shadows of the night."
"Then how can I achieve their level of shadowlessness?" Xiang Nan frowned and pondered.
"Impossible." The girl shook her head, "Because the martial skills you learned are completely different from theirs. Actually, your martial skills are not inferior to theirs. In some ways, they are even more powerful than theirs."
"You can't beat them because you can't find their tracks."
"That's right." Xiang Nan nodded. After a few battles, he had gained experience. The three of them were very strong, but their Yuan Qi and strength weren't as convenient as his own.
The girl said, "The cruel training they received allowed them to cultivate the ability to merge into the natural environment. Their attacks and actions can be kept quiet and can even shake your eyes."
"En, then what did you say just now, that you can't find them with your eyes alone?" Even in his previous life, Xiang Nan had always stayed in the Profound Sky Sect, and he did not have a thorough understanding of a special profession like assassin.
The girl pressed her finger against Xiang Nan's heart and said, "Use your heart to sense their existence."
"Observing the shape and listening to the wind is only a relatively basic method. If you are unable to determine their location through the sound of the wind, then use your heart to perceive what they cannot avoid."
"That is, killing intent!"
"Killing intent?" Xiang Nan was shocked.
All martial artists could sense the opponent's killing intent, but the key was how much they could sense. If the enemy suppressed their killing intent to the minimum, they would not be able to feel it.
The girl said, "No matter how well-trained the killers are, it is impossible to completely block their killing intent. At most, it will only reduce their killing intent to its limit."
"Close your eyes."
Xiang Nan Xia consciously closed his eyes. Immediately after, a terrifying killing intent enveloped Xiang Nan.
That feeling was simply indescribable, causing Xiang Nan to feel suffocated. Even his heartbeat suddenly stopped at this moment, and cold sweat broke out from his entire body.
Xiang Nan suddenly opened his eyes, his body trembling violently. In that instant, it was as if he was going to die at any moment.
However, in front of him was only the little girl sitting quietly, not performing any movements.
"This is called killing intent." The girl said.
