174: Our beast tamer is utterly incompetent!

He didn't have enough slaughter value for the Flawless Grade, but he had more than enough for the Peak level.

【Proficiency of "Nirvana Needle" has increased: Mastery Level → Peak.

Upgrade Advantages:

1. The power of the Nirvana Needle is significantly increased; it can currently penetrate the barriers of beings below fifth-tier 2nd rank, dealing effective damage.

2. Can simultaneously condense 3 Nirvana Needles within one second.

3. Comprehended the "Everything Can Fly" hidden weapon technique.

Aside from the Nirvana Needle, any object can be used as a hidden weapon; picking leaves and flying flowers can all cause injury.】

PS: (See "Energy Lord", a hidden weapon blogger, for details.)

Out of curiosity, Chen Fei picked up a small wooden branch from the ground, wrapped it in Spiritual Qi, and threw it out quickly.

With a "swoosh" sound.

The wooden branch pierced the main trunk of a tree at extreme speed and then flew out from the other side, leaving only a hole behind.

If this were shot into a person's body, it would be terrifyingly gruesome.

Immediately after, Chen Fei plucked a leaf, covered it with Annihilation Power, and flicked it toward a distant second-tier beast.

The expected scene of blood flowing everywhere did not happen because Chen Fei missed.

He had the power to kill a fifth-tier beast but lacked the accuracy; it was quite embarrassing!

However, this at least gave Chen Fei some additional life-saving means.

As long as he practiced diligently in the future and his accuracy improved, it would be an effective method for killing enemies.

After setting everything up, he just had to wait for the enemies to walk into the trap... Night fell!

The dim twilight gradually pressed down, as if heaven and earth were being stitched together.

Chen Fei was preparing meat for the Four Beasts; except for Lin Ya, the other Three Beasts were eating heartily.

Lin Ya took a few symbolic bites and then converted the beef into Spiritual Qi to absorb.

Otherwise, it would be perfectly fine even if it didn't eat.

It wasn't as delicious as the Undead Soul Seed Chen Fei had given it, which could also help increase the proficiency of its Necromancy System skills.

However, this wasn't the Undead Realm, so such things were quite scarce.

After eating, Chen Fei began his daily hidden weapon accuracy training.

"Little Gu, help me practice!"

"Goo~ How do we practice?"

"Call a few more Third-Generation Bugs and have them condense many crystals, about the size of a fist.

Then you guys control them in free fall or parabolic motion.

Practicing with moving objects is more meaningful than with stationary ones."

At this moment, Little Gu suddenly asked, "The size of my fist?"

"Pfft, hahaha... You're going to be the death of me..." Lin Ya couldn't help but be the first to burst out laughing.

Chi Yu and Wu Yun also had amused expressions.

Only Chen Fei: ...Your IQ is truly touching!

"No, how big can your fist be? As big as a fly? Or a mosquito?

If I had that kind of accuracy, why would I even need to practice? Of course I mean the size of my fist!"

Little Gu flew up and down, indicating its understanding.

Wu Yun and the other two beasts also looked over to see exactly how Chen Fei planned to train.

Besides Little Gu, there were four other Third-Generation Bugs, and they lined up.

Then, one of them would randomly release a crystal and let it fall freely.

There was no prior communication and no fixed order, focusing on being unpredictable.

It was like those arcade games where you have to be quick to catch falling sticks.

But Chen Fei's version was harder; he not only had to predict which Gu bug would release a crystal but also hit it with a hidden weapon while it was falling.

Everyone thought Chen Fei was going to show off, but instead, out of over a hundred crystal balls, he only hit one. His confidence was about to collapse!

The beasts all shook their heads, unable to watch any longer; it was truly pathetic.

"Meow~ Our Beast Tamer is so weak."

"Awoo~ He has no accuracy at all, and he wants to kill people?"

"Right now, he's no different from a child holding a divine sword," Lin Ya's description was the most fitting.

The lethality of the Nirvana Needle was not weak, the technique was there, and the force was there, but it lacked accuracy.

It was like a child holding a knife; no matter how sharp the knife is, it's useless if you can't hit anyone.

However, Chen Fei did not give up. If he were starting from scratch, it would be impossible to become proficient without ten or eight years of work.

But Chen Fei was different.

He already had skilled techniques; what he lacked was the grasp of timing and the prediction of his own flicked hidden weapons.

Practicing these two was faster than practicing basic skills.

This practice lasted for a full three hours.

And this would become a part of his life in the future.

Only through daily practice can one improve!

Suddenly, Lin Ya said in a deep voice, "Something has entered the range of the Spatial Perception I set up."

Lin Ya's [Spatial Perception] worked similarly to sonar, using the return time of sound waves to measure an object's size and distance.

Whereas [Spatial Perception] was like a three-dimensional pool of water; as soon as something entered, Lin Ya could clearly perceive the ripples it caused.

Knowing that the Green Robe Tower was likely to attack the various Ministers, Chen Fei had Lin Ya set up [Spatial Perception] outside each Minister's room.

Now it seemed the War Drum Master hadn't lied; the assassins had arrived.

Chen Fei immediately activated the Hidden Origin Art and rushed toward Chen Qingyun and his wife's room.

Little Gu used [Crystal Reorganization] to turn itself into countless tiny crystal particles and flew toward Cheng Jingjing's location.

Since it was the middle of the night, these crystal particles were impossible to discover without careful observation.

Wu Yun used [Shadow Stealth] to merge with the night and quietly arrived at Xie Xun's place.

Lin Ya had already hidden in the Void Realm, ready to support Xing Shaoshan at any time.

However, with Xing Shaoshan's strength as a King-level Beast Tamer, it wouldn't be that easy for the enemy to succeed.

As for Chi Yu, its stealth ability was a bit lacking, so it stayed perched on Chen Fei's shoulder to benefit from the Hidden Origin Art.

"Chi Yu, expand your Domain; I'll help you hide it."

The Hidden Origin Art's ability to hide a skill was quite useful at this moment.

Before long, in the space above the corridor, a Man in Black poked his head out from the shadows.

Looking at the other's appearance, he was clearly confirming the location.

However, he had no idea that he had already entered Chi Yu's Domain, and his Soul was directly marked by Chi Yu.

"Do it!"

Chi Yu immediately threw out [Soul Stripping] and then suppressed him with the Soul Mountain.

Caught off guard, the assassin fell straight from the ceiling.

Chen Fei raised a Nirvana Needle and flicked it out without even blinking.

"I don't believe I can't even hit such a large individual."

Chi Yu was speechless.

After all that, it turned out Chen Fei was using this assassin as a hidden weapon practice target.

With a "swoosh"!

It hit the Man in Black right in the thigh, and the Nirvana Needle even sank into the bone marrow.

The pain caused the person to let out a cold groan, and his body convulsed.

Chen Fei, however, was very dissatisfied with his accuracy: I clearly aimed for the heart; why is the deviation so large?

"Who is it?"

Chen Qingyun was startled awake and rushed out of the room with the Unicorn Thunder Ice Beast leading the way.

As soon as he came out, he saw Chen Fei smiling at him and the Man in Black lying on the ground...
