Chapter 46: The man in black
The man in black riding a fast dragon was a type of a Yaron . Although there was a world of difference between he and a true Giant Dragon, the thing which he was riding was already an outstanding type . Those hunters who just rode normal horses were not worth mentioning .
The so-called Yaron was naturally a beast, but the Giant Dragon had used its own blood as a catalyst to transform the beast . In addition to many years and months of repetitive experiment to solidify the blood vessels, they had reached the peak of the beast and As long as they had enough time and food, almost every one of them could grow into a beast .
Xunlong was a specific type that was used for riding and transporting . Its build was much taller than a warhorse; it somewhat looked like a bird . Its powerful legs ran like it was flying . A pair of its talons, were sharp enough to rip apart tigers and leopards . Covering its long tail was a bunch of sharp teeth, which terrified people at the first glance . Its back was like a cushion that helped reduce the shock for the rider . Even if they rode it for several hours, they would not be in pain . They would not need to worry about the so-called “ball-breaking” danger .
The man in black riding this dragon was taller than an average Xunlong . There was one very short horn on his forehead . When he was running, there was some kind of electric sparks hovering around the horn . Without a doubt,his body was full of dark magic, he was not very far from becoming a devil beast .
Being able to skillfully riding such a powerful creature had proved that the man in black’s extraordinary strength . Nevertheless, this man’s approach was also sensible . He didn’t chase the enemies too closely but kept a certain distance, made the enemies keep running without being able to rest . Meanwhile, he leisurely and safely sat on the cushion on top of the Xunlong’s back . From time to time, they, one person one horse, stopped, , ate and drank something, so comfortably that it looked like they were going on an excursion .
“So interesting…! A hunter has become a hunting object . This scene is worth seeing!”
Sui Xiong suddenly got interested, deliberately followed them, wanted to see what happened in the end .
As the escaping and chasing lasted for several days, they slowly entered the Gobi Dessert . The escapers were like panic runners while the chaser was a bold and capable person . When the fugitives saw the surroundings gradually changed from ash-black to ash-yellow, they knew they had reached the uttermost dangerous zone . Those people whose strengths were drained out still burst out their valors in the desperation . Following the leader’s roar, they turned their horses around in succession to have a life-and-death battle with the chaser .
The battle very soon came to an end . The man in black used an extremely sophisticated shooting and fencing art . One pike and one sword moved flashingly . The one-horned Xunlong below also helped him fighting . The hunters who were like his preys basically could not handle one strike . Their efforts to strike back were like spraying water into the dam . In an instant, the chaos dissolved, only blood remained on the ground .

After mercilessly killing almost all of the enemies, the man in black jumped off the Xunlong, roaming something among the corpses .
After looking for a while, he eventually found his object . It was a golden crystal cylinder about the size of a half-palm . Except for its crystal-like appearance, inside its transparent body, there was a flow of golden air with countless changing rays, which changed the original colorless and transparent cylinder into a golden one .
In a blink, the all-along silent man in black showed his joy, laughing out loud . He grabbed the crystal cylinder tightly in his hand, looked again and again then smiled . He ignored the blood stains, kissed it several times with full of emotions .
Sui Xiong couldn’t help but be frightened . The golden air inside the crystal cylinder constantly showcased the image of the world . It was clearly a thread of God Power!
This God Power had a fantastic power . Apart from the God Power wrapping outside, there was a huge volume of dark magic that was used to bind them together . As to its manufacturing process, we needed to borrow “the source of the power” to explain . It was made by the refined dark power inside or from the isomerization of the huge amount of religion power . Thanks to the analysis, after Sui Xiong had swallowed the God of Conspiracy’s four face monster, he was able to the manufacture of God Power and ways to use it . Even he right now was able to truly have an equivalent power to a God Power .
What on earth is the identity of the crystal cylinder that can bind a God Power inside? ! What exactly is the origin of the dazzling golden stand of God Power?
Along with his desperate curiosity, Sui Xiong controlled the jellyfish body in the air to fly down . With an incredible speed, he landed in front of the man in black . There was an abundance of ‘the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind’ meanings .
Although the man in black was standing still, crazily rejoicing inside, his reaction was still as quick as before . Hearing the sound that had unexpectedly dropped from the sky, he didn’t want to put down the crystal cylinder to the corpse on the ground but immediately rolled over to avoid Sui Xiong’s stab .
He used the crystal cylinder to attract the enemy’s attention and then drew out a sword . His judgment was very accurate . He even didn’t need to look but still could correctly hit the target . His advanced martial art and abundant fighting experience really made people gasp in amazement!
The difference in their abilities was too big that even any martial arts and experience could make up for that . This sword move that he had just struck was like stabbing the extremely thick skin of an animal . The sharp enchanted sword absolutely could not stab the enemy’s body but slipped to the side instead .
His heart sank when he saw his sword have been missed .
No matter how outstanding the ability of the enemy was, or how mighty the weapon was, being able to make his sword lose its power had proved his true strength .
At least, even if they changed their positions, he absolutely wouldn’t have confidence to take this sword .

The personality of this man in black was also unyeilding as he didn’t show any signs of dispiritedness . On the other hand, he stood up, held the sword, posed a defensive stance, and was prepared to take any hard attack .
All he could see right now was a peculiar jellyfish devil beast, which was using its tentacles to hold up the golden crystal cylinder .
“This thing . . . . What monster is this?” He couldn’t help but mutter to himself .
After that, he heard the monster’s voice .
“I am Oscar, you can call me ‘Hollow Mask’ . This thing is really interesting . In such a close distance like this, I still can not sense the hidden God Power inside . So amazing…!”
The man in black immediately cooled down . With his abundant experience and judging from Sui Xiong’s speaking, he knew the opposite party at least usually interacted with the God Power or even had a chance to talk to a God so that he could bluntly face the God Power like this .
The word “Existence” could be used to describe the level of that kind of powerhouse . Right now, I am an adventurer who can not even touch the legendary door and unable to withstand a single blow from it .
If the God Power falls into its hand, I will also lose this tinest chance .
Because of this thread of God Power, he had spent countless time and effort on ambushing for more than half of a year . To deal with the church of the Ruthless Hunter (the alias of the hunting and massacre God), he had spent all of his wealth to tempt many men who just wanted money instead of life . Therefore, he had used up almost all of his accumulated favors, but he still got many enemies . Finally, he made a move himself, went into the dangerous Gobi Desert, chased thousand miles to kill the loyal believers of the Ruthless Hunter, really sought for death from that merciless God .
According to his plan, after finishing this case, he would immediately flee to the southeast mainland . He even thought of moving to another surface . . . From his point of view, all of these things were worth it!
As long as he could smoothly carry out his plan or steal away that chance, it was all worth it!
But right now, all of his efforts had gone into vain!
If it wasn’t for his strong mind and firm self-control, at this moment, he would probably have riskily charged forward to have a life-or-death battle with that strange giant jellyfish, trying to take back the God Power—-of course, it would in fact be like seeking for death .
He didn’t want to die . Hence, he had no choice but to be patient .
Sui Xiong carefully examined this crystal cylinder, but he still couldn’t know how to get the God Power inside out . He also finally found out the identity of the God Power but still couldn’t do anything else except for asking the only survived insider .
“In this, is the Life Goddess’ power . ” The man in black replied .
“Life Goddess? Hasn’t she died . . . ” Sui Xiong said casually then suddenly shuddered . He finally understood this man’s intention .
He wanted to make use of this thread of God Power to find out the origin of “Life” and then attempt to get this “Life” God Position to become a God!
“Wow! You, your ability is not big . But your ambition is not small!” Sui Xiong couldn’t help but wonder, “With your little skills, you also dare to get the Life God Position? Perhaps, don’t you think that until the time you declare your position, other Gods who hold the death position will unite to attack you?”
“It would probably be like that, but I can seek for a God position in some God system . ” The man in black replied .
“Why do humans have to shelter you? Are directly killing you and stealing your God position simpler?” Sui Xiong asked again, “Almost every God system wants to possess the Life God Position . Once you’ve already obtained that God Position, you can immediately create a powerful God . Why should they use an outsider like you?”
The man in black silenced for a while then said in a low tone, “Nevertheless, I have to try once . “
‘Nevertheless, I have to try once . ’ this was his ambition . He was too stubborn .
Sui Xiong sighed, “Let’s not talk about this anymore . First, we have another problem——I’ve checked it . This crystal cylinder is strangely solid . I am not sure I will not damage that thread of God Power if I break it . Do you perhaps have a solution?”
“No, but I just want to try . “
“All of these are just for ne-time try?”
“Right, that’s it . “
“Only for this one try, you dare to offend the hunting and massacre God?”
“Why should I not dare?” There was as if fires flickering in the eyes of the man in black, “I am a robber . I will die on the side road at any time . My spirit would be punished when I go to Hell . . . . As compared to that, how is the Ruthless Hunter scary? Is he perhaps scarier than Hell?”
This time, it was Sui Xiong’s turn to silence . After a long time, he sighed then spoke up, “I have seen countless adventurers . This is the first time I’ve ever met such a stubborn one like you . “
“Such a big world like this would have some strange people and matters . ” The man in black coldly asked, “So, why do you show up? To Murder…?”
“Murdering is not my style . In comparison to that, I am more curious about you . ” Sui Xiong beamed a smile, “On the contrary, should you need to start running away? So why don’t you follow me to the south? If on the way of solving the secret of this crystal cylinder, I get something good, you will have a part of it . Even if I still can’t solve this crystal cylinder’s secret in the end, at least I will successfully protect you to exile . “
The man in black sighed, bowed deeply to conduct the greeting, “This transaction is very reasonable, I don’t have any objection . “
“So, right now should you tell me your name?”
“Lei . This is my name . I have an alias called ‘family extermination’ . “

Papercuts to Fell Immortals
Qing Shen is a girl from the counrtyside, forced into a role she never wanted by a Young Master who's infamy is spread throughout the land. As a Cultivator in the path to immortality, Qing Shen has to deal with her own problems as well as the mysteries surrounding her Young Master. Things, however, are not as they seem, and the young girl finds that sometimes the truth is more unbelievable than the lies we often follow. . . . If you want a less hidden-meaning summary: This story is about the struggles of one girl as she tries to become an Immortal. There won't be any meaningful romance, but there will be a plot that spans most of the story, and violence. Oh the violence! I'm not going to say that my ideas are 100% original (because hoo boy are there a lot of Wuxia), but hopefully I can write something entertaining. Guaranteed things: 1. Cliche events with a twist (I mean, it's literally in the description) 2. Important Characters will have backstories and motivations that will hopefully make them not one-dimensional (honestly, that's just normal stuff...) 3. Untrustworthy characters (everyone in the story lies, even me, so don't trust everything you read... but at the same time, trust everything you read) 4. Goodish grammar (not gonna say mine's the best, but it's readable in most cases) 5. Plot! (Everywhere!) 6. worldbuilding? (Should be there somewhere, but I probably won't do blatant info dumps... probably) 7. Character development? (Its there... at some point...) 8. The story gets dark at some points (if you don't like characters dying, then this might not be your cup of tea) 9. A strong main character? (She'll be strong, yes. However, her enemies are also strong. If everyone is strong, then is she no longer strong? My brain hurts) 10. Wow, this list is going on for awhile... uh, Believable and reasonable Action? (I mean, I'm writing for mainly my fun, so if I want a fight scene, then I might craft a scenario to explain it... or I might suddenly throw in a Dragon and call it a day) This story also goes by the same name over on Webnovel.com, but I'm going to be updating it here because, well I want to. They are both by me, and created by me. If there's anything that seems like a copy of another work, then that's just the genre being saturated by everything under the sun.
