Urban God-level Youth

If word of this spreads, I'm afraid no one will believe it.

Even the peak experts of the Postnatal Late Stage absolutely cannot achieve what Qin Hao has done. If that's the case, doesn't it mean that Qin Hao's combat power is even more terrifying than the cultivators at the peak of the Postnatal Late Stage?

After resting for half an hour, Qin Hao resumed his hunting activities.

He spent the entire day fighting with beasts, and by the evening, he had slain about a dozen beasts at the Postnatal Peak Realm.

Returning to the cave, Ling'er began to prepare the roasted meat and brewed the Demon Bone Soup while Xian Yin assisted her.

Today, they harvested quite a variety of beasts, practically having meat from every kind.

After dinner, Qin Hao took out several beast cores and handed them to Ling'er; after some hesitation, he also gave two to Xian Yin: "We'll cultivate here for a while to improve our strength."

"Yes, Master," Ling'er replied obediently.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin," Xian Yin expressed her gratitude.

Qin Hao nodded slightly, and the three of them began cultivating, sitting cross-legged. Qin Hao currently held eight beast cores from Postnatal Peak beasts.

The Immortal Burying Skill ran at full force, crazily absorbing the pure energy within those eight beast cores.

After breaking through to the Postnatal Realm, Qin Hao's speed of energy absorption increased by dozens of times. Massive amounts of energy entered his body, following the cultivation technique of the Immortal Burying Skill, eventually transforming into pure energy that entered the dantian, repeatedly cycling.

Cultivation is a tedious and repetitive task; sometimes, you have to go through the same cycle for months, years, or even decades, centuries.

Cultivation transcends time; years pass in the blink of an eye, as the Cultivation Realm often says.

Four days later, all the energy from the eight beast cores was absorbed by Qin Hao, allowing him to barely break through to the Postnatal Middle Stage.

The Immortal Burying Skill is a top-tier cultivation technique that requires an extraordinary amount of energy for each minor realm breakthrough.

The energy includes Spiritual Energy, the essence of sun, moon, and stars, etc. As long as it is energy, it can be absorbed and refined.

Qin Hao opened his eyes; the cave was empty, with neither Xian Yin nor Ling'er present.

With a hint of doubt in his eyes, he got up and walked outside. Before he reached the exit, he heard the sound of a zither coming from outside.

At the cave entrance, he saw Xian Yin playing the zither not far away, with Ling'er watching attentively as if she was learning.

It had to be said that Xian Yin's zither playing was incredibly beautiful, able to immerse people within the melodies, affecting their emotions and feelings.

After the piece finished, Qin Hao clapped, and Xian Yin and Ling'er turned to look at him: "Master, have you finished cultivating?"

Qin Hao nodded: "Hmm, are you learning the zither from Miss Xian Yin?"

Ling'er chuckled: "Yes, Master. Xian Yin's sister plays so beautifully, I want to learn too, and then play for you."

Qin Hao smiled and patted her head: "Then learn well from Miss Xian Yin; she certainly plays well."

At that moment, more than ten figures suddenly appeared, surrounding Qin Hao and the others.

Leading them were Li Changdong and Song Liang, among others.

Xian Yin's expression changed drastically upon seeing them — how did they appear here silently?

Qin Hao's face also tensed. How did these people follow them silently? Didn't the space mecha detect them?

Li Changdong and his companions realized they had been discovered the first time, so for this pursuit, they concealed their presence. After all, the technology of the space mecha is dead; cultivators whose auras are concealed cannot be detected.

Song Liang and others, upon seeing Xue Lingling beside Qin Hao, were taken aback: "Are you Qin Hao??"

Nie Feng and others were in disbelief. Was Qin Hao really the one who killed Li Yifan? Why him? He had no grievances or enmity with Li Yifan, so why would he kill him?

Li Changdong turned to Song Liang: "Is he Qin Hao?"

Song Liang nodded slightly: "That's right, he is indeed the Qin Hao wanted by our Red Cloud Sect, and to think he also killed Li Yifan."

"Qin Hao, my Li Family has no grievances with you; why did you kill my son?" Li Changdong asked with a dark expression, staring at him.

Qin Hao sneered: "I made it clear when I killed him; having done so many heinous deeds, if Heaven won't punish him, then I will act in Heaven's stead, upholding justice in this world."

Xian Yin and Xue Lingling looked at Qin Hao, at that moment finding his silhouette becoming immensely larger.

If Heaven won't punish him, then I will act in Heaven's stead!

"What a noble act of upholding Heaven's justice! In Jiangping State, I am Heaven; my words are the rules. Today, I will use the heads of you three to commemorate my son's spirit in Heaven," Li Changdong uttered with a grim expression, killing intent pouring forth.

Qin Hao discreetly placed a ring in Xian Yin's hand, transmitting a message via Divine Sense: "Put the ring on; after activation, take Ling'er and run. I'll hold them off. Don't speak; time is of the essence. Contact me once you're safe."

Song Liang cautioned: "Be careful, Li Changdong, this kid is a bit strange; he can kill an Innate Realm early-stage expert in an instant."

"Golden Tiger Guards, attack," Li Changdong ordered.

Eight men in golden armor flew out, and each of their chests bore a fierce tiger head made entirely of gold and iron.

These eight were the renowned leaders of the Eight Golden Tiger Guards from the state lord's mansion, each an expert in the Innate Realm. They excelled in Combined Attack Skill and, when coordinated, could slay Innate Late Stage experts — extremely formidable.

"You must hurry," Qin Hao urged as he advanced.

Xian Yin understood that staying would only burden Qin Hao, so she activated the mecha and, holding Xue Lingling, flew outward, their speed so swift even she did not anticipate it — disappearing in a flash.

Those around had no chance to react.

Li Changdong and Song Liang were a bit dumbfounded. What incredible speed was this?

Xian Yin could not possibly possess such speed; had she, she wouldn't have failed the assassination attempt earlier.

This speed was almost like Qin Hao's from before; could it be that Qin Hao ran so fast because of a magic artifact? Did he now give this artifact to Xian Yin?

The possibility was high.

Qin Hao engaged in combat with the Eight Golden Tiger Guard leaders, whose strength was indeed formidable, producing powerful combat prowess.

Though he had broken through to the Postnatal Middle Stage, significantly increasing his combat power, facing these eight leaders was quite challenging.

"Is this all? I thought you were tougher; you can't even defeat my Golden Tiger Guards," Li Changdong sneered, seeing Qin Hao rapidly fall behind.

Qin Hao wielded the Ten Thousand Thunder Sword Skill to its fullest, but alas, the gap in both sides' realm strength was substantial.

He activated the space mecha, his figure flashed, disappearing from his original position, reappearing beside the Red Cloud Sect elder, Song Liang.

Song Liang's face turned pale; without a chance to react, Qin Hao executed the strongest move of the Ten Thousand Thunder Sword Skill: Purple Lightning Thunder Dragon.

With a single stroke, a purple thunder dragon roared forth, directly piercing through Song Liang's chest.

He was merely an outer elder of the Red Cloud Sect, with a strength only at the Innate early-stage, not very high. Even without the mecha, Qin Hao was confident in taking him down.
