Super Gene Hunting Ground

After drinking the white liquid from the black bottle that day, he finally broke through to King Level, significantly enhancing his combat power.

If it were not for encountering Li Kan’s harassment of Leia today, he might have kept it hidden for a while longer.

Although Yang Xiao is only at the Primary Stage of King Level, his unique condition makes him stronger than other evolvers of the same level.

Other evolvers need over a hundred million Crystal Coins to reach King Level, Yang Xiao needs three to four hundred million, which naturally makes him much stronger than his peers.

Moreover, with the comprehensive power stimulated by the Ancient Martial Arts, his combat power has already reached the Intermediate Stage of King Level.

Yang Xiao has lived at the base for over two months and is known by most people there, including Li Kan.

He also knew that Li Kan was at the Intermediate Stage of King Level, even if Li Kan was at the advanced stage of King Level, or even an Emperor Level Evolver, he was prepared to go all out today.

How could he remain indifferent when his woman was being humiliated?

If he could tolerate this, what meaning would there be in a man’s life?

Isn’t it just death?

Once that fiery blood surged, it became uncontrollable.

Since this is a planet where respect is earned through strength, then let the strength be shown!

Go for the kill!

As for how to explain the evolution to David and others afterwards, he no longer cared—how could a man without fiery blood even be worthy of being called a man?

Li Kan, also only at the Intermediate Stage of King Level, was retreating step by step under Yang Xiao’s relentless attack, unable to defend himself.

Especially, Yang Xiao’s elusive movement technique and the endless variety of Ancient Martial Arts were exhausting for him to deal with, impossible to entirely defend against.

After dozens of minutes, Li Kan had already been wounded in several places, blood speckled on his body, in a sorry state.

If it were not for his Magic Longsword filled with killing aura, Li Kan would have been thoroughly defeated long ago.

After half an hour of fierce fighting, Yang Xiao had become quite familiar with Li Kan’s combat power; the only thing he was somewhat wary of was Li Kan’s Magic Heavy Sword filled with killing aura.

”Yah!”

Li Kan roared,

His longsword sliced towards Yang Xiao with a sky-high killing aura.

Yang Xiao used Instantaneous Movement, urgently dodging backward.

Instead of advancing, Li Kan burst backward, his figure shook, and transformed into a huge Golden Armor beetle Monster.

”Yang Xiao, I must kill you today!”

The huge Golden Armor beetle monster spread its wings, soared into the air, and shot a scarlet fire line at Yang Xiao.

Wherever the fire line passed, it almost burned a huge hole in the void.

Yang Xiao used Instantaneous Movement, jumped into mid-air, and did not dare to pause, continuously shifting positions through several Instantaneous Movements, avoiding the Golden Armor beetle’s attacks.

The Golden Armor beetle, like an aerial cannon, continuously fired powerful fire lines, chasing Yang Xiao, each fire line piercing through the void in front of it.

After evolving to King Level, Yang Xiao had acquired the true Instantaneous Technique; compared to the Shaolin-sourced Ancient Martial Light Skill, the true Instantaneous Technique was much faster and covered greater distances.

Yang Xiao continuously shuttle in the air, each Instantaneous Movement about 20 meters, constantly shifting from one point in space to another.

The Golden Armor beetle continuously fired fire lines, chasing Yang Xiao’s figure.

Instantaneous Movement is extremely fast; ordinary people simply cannot see any trace of movement, instantly appearing from one point in space to another.

Speed is relative.

But so-called peers of similar level have exceptionally strong visual tracking abilities, still able to see your general movement trajectory.

If the opponent’s level is much higher than yours, they can clearly see your movement trajectory, thus capturing you.

Now Yang Xiao truly understood what Gu Bo from the Genetic Store had told him before; the Ancient Martial Arts of Xuanming Country can dominate below King Level, but beyond King Level, the power of Ancient Martial Arts begins to decline.

For example, the standard Instantaneous Technique of a King Level Evolver, moving speed, could not be coped with by Ancient Martial Light Skill.

After over ten minutes of struggle in midair with Li Kan, suddenly\\xa0with a loud shout, his Divine Sense surged, and he reached out his right hand towards Li Kan’s Golden Armor beetle Beast Soul.

”Boom!”

A thunderous roar,

A huge hand appeared in mid-air, five giant fingers instantly enveloping Li Kan.

Yang Xiao clenched his hand claw, and the huge hand instantly closed, determined to crush the huge Golden Armor beetle.

The spectators below let out a gasp of shock!

Li Kan felt a chill in his heart as the Golden Armor beetle directed a cannon shot at one of the fingers.

”Boom!”

The huge finger burst instantly, and the Golden Armor Beetle flew out from the grip.

Li Kan had just flown out when he felt an overwhelming killing aura sweeping towards him.

”Boom!”

A hundred-meter-long gigantic monster tail, with a thunderous roar, swept towards the Golden Armor Beetle.

Where the giant tail passed, the void shattered, and even David, an Emperor Level Evolver, felt a chilling sense of dread.

”Boom!”

With a loud noise,

the giant monster tail hit the Golden Armor Beetle,

instantly knocking it a hundred meters away,

crashing onto a hillside, blasting trees within dozens of meters around the hillside and creating a large hole with rocks flying chaotically.

The Golden Armor Beetle was deformed and embedded in the crater, reverting back to Li Kan’s appearance.

Li Kan, after all, possesses a strong defense at the King Level Intermediate Realm and his high defense armor; he did not die on the spot.

Li Kan spat out blood, struggling to move his body, trying to retrieve a life-saving Small Blood Pill from the Space Ring.

In Purple Origin Star, King Level Evolvers were already using an upgraded version of the Small Blood Pill, the Medium Blood Pill.

After injuries, King Level Evolvers needed more powerful restorative energy, and the Small Blood Pill was no longer sufficient.

At that moment, Yang Xiao used several instances of Instantaneous Movement and appeared in front of Li Kan.

”Li Kan, stop looking for pills; you’re doomed!”

Li Kan was suddenly shocked, looking at Yang Xiao with eyes full of terror,

”You, what do you want?”

”What do I want? Of course, to kill you. Did you think I would let you go?”

In his terror, Li Kan suddenly yelled:

”Yang Xiao, you are a slave, how dare you kill me?”

”Hehe, in a life-and-death battle, we are not limited by the laws of Witch Star; why would I not dare?”

”You,”

Li Kan now realized with horror that Yang Xiao indeed intended to kill him, something he had totally not anticipated or even thought could be a consequence.

Before agreeing to the duel, Li Kan had thought only about humiliating Yang Xiao; now, everything was out of his control, including his life.

”Yang, Master Yang, please spare me, it’s my fault, I, I can compensate you, one million crystal coins, no, ten million crystal coins.”

”Hehe, even if you compensate a hundred million crystal coins, I still intend to take your life.”

Yang Xiao smiled faintly, bringing his Longsword to Li Kan’s neck.

Li Kan was sent flying, and Yang Xiao pursued; these few seconds were merely spent by most still standing there, recalling Yang Xiao’s two horrifying Soul Skills and guessing about his Beast Soul and so on, no one came over to check the situation.

David suddenly felt uneasy and leaped up, shouting toward Yang Xiao from a distance:

”Master Yang, show mercy!”

But, it was too late!

Strictly speaking, Yang Xiao had no intention of showing mercy, even if David intervened.

After all, this was a life-and-death duel between him and Li Kan.

Life-and-death duels are not considered provocation or disturbance, being mutual consents, even if one party is killed, the other party is not responsible, even if their status is that of a slave.

This was something Yang Xiao had understood before the duel, and also the very reason he insisted on a life-and-death battle.

Yang Xiao’s face gave off a charming smile, his longsword swept through like lightning.

Puchi!

Li Kan’s head dropped straight down,

his eyes wide open with terror, still staring at Yang Xiao even when his head hit the ground in a flash.

Yang Xiao looked at Li Kan’s eyes that refused to close in death and calmly said:

”Slaves,

have dignity too!”

The last hint of life quietly faded from Li Kan’s eyes, closing them forever.
