Twin Dimension Yin-Yang Mirror: Attaining immortality through the martial path
Chapter 191 - 166: Using the Knife as Eyes, Amidst Ruined Walls and Rubble

Chapter 191: Chapter 166: Using the Knife as Eyes, Amidst Ruined Walls and Rubble

The light flickered slightly.

Hundreds of segmented tentacles stabbed forward, and the figure that stood before them with a smiling demeanor suddenly burst like a bubble into nothingness.

The space ahead was utterly empty.

Chen Ziwen had not yet grasped what had happened.

He felt that no matter how much he pressed, his left hand just wouldn’t budge.

In the secret room, it wasn’t lit with the purple-blue threads as he had imagined.

In the midst of everything, he looked down only to see an arm slowly falling, landing on the ground with a "smack."

As his gaze followed the falling, what also fell to the ground was his body, from which blood gushed wildly.

"Ah..."

An indescribable severe pain then reached his brain.

It nearly knocked Chen Ziwen unconscious.

By then, he finally understood.

His left hand, and both legs from the knee down, had been severed by something without his knowing.

That thing was astonishingly fast and incredibly sharp.

It had severed his hand and legs without any sound or hindrance.

"Hehe..."

He heard a light laugh near his ear.

Chen Ziwen turned to look behind him and saw Zhou Ping’an, not far away, holding a controller and a Tiger Talisman, with a mocking smile on his face.

The opponent had somehow left the room unnoticed.

"This really is a fine object, having this Tiger Talisman has been a massive help, I must say, I am thankful to you," said Zhou Ping’an, not even glancing at the tumor-ridden millipede freak that was wildly charging toward him. With a casual wave of the azure long sword in his right hand...

The door of the secret room, along with the countless tentacles the limb monster had reached out, was sliced into numerous fine powdery fragments as if dissolved by ripples of water.

The millipede genetic freak, even with its extraordinary regenerative ability, let out a painful shriek at this moment.

The sound, akin to a knife scraping on glass, was extremely uncomfortable to hear and the monster spat out a cloud of black mist from its mouth.

As soon as the black mist appeared, it roared and rolled forward tumultuously.

[One-Slash Sea Wave Levelling.]

Zhou Ping’an sneered as his long sword whooshed down.

The air trembled with ripples, surging forward, turning into a faint and ethereal trail of white.

Immediately, the secret room’s door collapsed from the cut.

The cloaked millipede genetic modifier was split in two under this wave of sword light.

Simultaneously, the dense black mist, as though tangible, was cleaved in half and fell motionlessly to the ground.

This slash was a perfect fusion of Wave-Cleaving Jin and Submerged Wave Jin.

Unity of Hardness and Softness, invincible and unstoppable, slicing through anything.

Especially after Zhou Ping’an obtained a peerless treasure sword, he brought this interplay of firm and gentle forces to its ultimate expression.

There was a thrilling sensation of controlling everything, with the sword as his eyes and hands, be it flesh and blood, steel walls, or even intangible smoke.

Everything was split into two effortlessly, without exception.

"If that old man named Sandler were still here, he might have been able to exchange a few blows with me, to the death.

But what are these forcibly transformed genetic monsters compared to that?" Zhou Ping’an looked coldly at the millipede genetically modified freak, still writhing on the ground yet cleaved in two.

He was telling the truth.

Previously, while hiding under the trees outside the villa, not only had he sensed the defensive light net inside this courtyard, he had also sensed a powerful force that posed some danger to him.

Unfortunately for Chen Ziwen, this prodigal son had come up with such an ingenious method that he had managed to poison that foreign expert to death.

Of course.

The foreign expert’s final blow before dying

also made Zhou Ping’an realize that the modern world had long been riddled with holes, far from the descriptions in books.

Secretly, unbeknownst to all, bizarre things had emerged.

Whether it’s people, things, institutions, or even the air that’s taken for granted, all had undergone a strange transformation.

Once the balance of a thousand years is disrupted.

What awaits humanity could be a blessing or a curse, and it’s unclear.

Moreover, it gave Zhou Ping’an a glimpse into something important.

That is, genetic modification might have many downsides, but in the hands of some, it can still play a significant role.

Just like that foreign elder, whose desperate strike was comparable to Zhou Ping’an’s kill of Elder Guangming in Another World.

Different paths, the same level of power.

He could not afford to ignore all the forces of modern society just because his own strength had become incredibly potent.

Furthermore,

from the punch that old man threw, bursting through the chest and abdomen of the millipede freak genetic modifier, it could also be seen that the monster called "Number One" by Chen Ziwen, had its most powerful means in its poison.

That unusual poison, almost nothing could withstand it.

Once hit, even a strong man like the foreign elderly could not last more than a few breaths.

But where there are strengths, there are weaknesses.

Apart from the unusual poison,

the other abilities of the millipede gene modifiers didn’t amount to much.

Strength was lacking,

speed was not very fast,

at most it had a strong vitality that allowed it to self-recover after being burst through.

So, could it still live with its head cleaved open?

Most likely, it couldn’t.

Zhou Ping’an proved it.

He could feel that the life force of the millipede freak genetic modifier, which he had cleaved in two, was gradually fading.

Death began to spread, and it was already at its dying stage.

It might hang on a little longer, but its death was sealed.

...

"Spare me, I’ll give you anything..."

As triumphant as Chen Ziwen had been a moment earlier,

he was now in extreme agony.

Having seen how quickly Zhou Ping’an killed during live broadcasts, he feared that a slow shout might be too late.

He had not yet had enough of life.

In the university town, so many charming young ladies were still waiting for him.

And hundreds of billions in assets were still awaiting his inheritance.

If his limbs were reattached quickly, they might still function properly...

At this moment, Chen Ziwen thought too much and too quickly; he spoke even faster than he thought.

"In the cabinet, there are land deeds and stock documents; from that old guy, there’s also a mirror.

"No, there are two pieces, together with the mirror you got, very magical..."

He feared that Zhou Ping’an might not be interested in anything and just wanted to kill him to vent his anger.

At this moment, showing his worth was the best way to stay alive.

Chen Ziwen’s mind sometimes wandered off.

Sometimes he would go crazy, treating others like they weren’t human... but he was definitely not a fool, especially when it came to knowing how to save his own life, he had profound skills.

"Really?"

Zhou Ping’an indeed became interested.

The items unearthed from General Wenshan’s Tomb that day had truly surprised him.

They had also aroused his greed to some extent.

However, this emotion was just budding in his mind when his strong will crushed it into nothingness.

The "Five Desires Evil Art" was indeed deeply demonic, killing people like mowing grass without a sound.

It could make people dizzyingly enthralled and leave them in a dilemma of advancing or retreating.

But for the cultivator himself, once he passed a certain threshold, his soul would become much purer and his mental strength much stronger.

Fully controlling desires, instead of becoming a slave to them.

All emotions, controlled at will, truly lively and sharp, no longer obscured.

From this point of view, although this demonic cultivation was dangerous, if completed, the benefits were tremendous.

"The old man, he went to the High Seas..."

By this time, Chen Ziwen seemed to see a glimmer of hope for life, he wasn’t rushing anymore, only enduring the pain, his head lowered as he slowly spoke.

"Unexpectedly, you are quite clever, knowing that I wouldn’t let you go, so you came up with such a trick."

Zhou Ping’an chuckled lightly, no longer asking questions.

The sound remained on the spot.

The flash of the blade had already passed.

As Chen Ziwen’s head flew off.

Zhou Ping’an’s figure had already transformed into a thin afterimage.

One Step Ascension, one step treading the mountain.

He charged straight up into the sky, on a high tree in the courtyard, lightly tapping once and then dashing out tens of meters again.

Within a few moments, he had left the Half Mountain Villa by a good hundred meters.

Behind him, the rolling billowing black smoke, like a torrential giant wave, chased his figure, pummeling towards him.

Only then could you clearly hear the faint muffled booming sound.

Looking back.

The buildings and people inside the Half Mountain Villa, like ephemeral shadows, began to melt away in the rolling black fog.

Eventually, all that was left were ruins...

As if it had undergone the vicissitudes of a century.

"Such a fine mansion, along with those possessions, as well as the property deeds and stocks certificates, all gone,"

Zhou Ping’an shook his head and chuckled.

He thought to himself that those things were actually of no use to him.

Without the Chairman of Taihe Pharmaceuticals’ signature, without his approval, these mountain-high riches couldn’t fall into his hands.

Moreover, as such a big boss, he surely wouldn’t simply turn his wealth to cash and store it in a house.

There’s really nothing to regret.

Even if it was stored in the house.

Under this poisonous fog explosion and impact, everything turned to nothingness.

"You’re even recording the footage, you’re not thinking of uploading today’s battle onto the internet, are you?"

A black-clothed figure slowly walked out from behind the trees.

If not Tang Tang then who?

Under the moonlight, the martial sister was less stern than during the day, and slightly more enchanting.

Looking at Zhou Ping’an, her eyes gleamed with a hint of inquiry and curiosity.

Seemingly wondering what he was really thinking.

"What’s wrong with that? Just in time, let that old guy who can’t find a place to hide, have a good look at how his family commits fratricide, and siblings fight against each other..."

Zhou Ping’an’s eyes flickered with a cold light, "Also just right for him to taste the flavor of eternal separation from kin, the agony of flesh and blood being torn apart."

"Others, after doing bad things, always try to cover them up.

You’re quite the opposite, afraid it isn’t bright and aboveboard enough, completely not afraid of the old man going crazy..."

Some things didn’t need to be said; Zhou Ping’an understood them clearly.

The martial sister was actually a bit worried.

A controller of hundreds of billions of wealth...

The means of retaliation he could possess were probably astonishing.

But, the martial sister made a mistake on one point.

Tonight’s events, no matter how much they were concealed.

They could not be hidden.

The opponent would rather kill the wrong person than let anyone go.

And he had become the number one suspect...

Regardless, he was at the top of their must-kill list.

With things as they were, why bother deceiving oneself?

It was better to provoke the opponent.

Due to hatred, anger arises; due to anger, madness follows...

Then, in their careless actions, there might be opportunities to exploit.

Zhou Ping’an casually tossed away the controller in his hand, the tiger talisman secretly stored in his pocket, and he chuckled quietly, "Martial sister, don’t worry, you drove here, right? Just in time, give me a ride back...

Tomorrow, I need to get up early to prepare for searching the research facility.

This time, I want to completely uncover some things and expose them in the sunlight..."

"So I’m just your driver?"

Tang Tang felt somewhat helpless.

She did indeed drive here.

Moreover, every night, she was investigating near the Chen Family Villa.

Gradually, she started to catch up with her martial brother’s thoughts...

Every time, when she felt things were getting complicated and difficult, the martial brother always used bizarre methods to break through.

Such methods, utterly unfathomable...

It was completely unexpected that things would turn to this point.

"Maybe, Dongjiang really will change."

Tang Tang thought thus, lightly tapping the steering wheel.

The small white car, like a ghost, merged into the night.

...

Seeking Monthly Pass.
