I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

As she landed in a crouching position, with the gracefulness of a leopard, all the blades had already returned to their sheaths.

The Cockroach Monster behind her suddenly became still.

"Ka ka ka ka..."

Before long, its limbs, including six insect legs and four thin wings, fell off its body and scattered on the ground.

All of the cuts were perfect, made along the natural gaps between its exoskeleton and limbs.

Xue Jing's eyes brightened with admiration, "Professional."

It was like a butcher expertly disassembling an ox, exceedingly smooth, never letting the blade touch the hard exoskeleton, aiming only for the weak points.

He sighed inwardly.

White Crow really had something special.

The Cockroach Monster, which he had struggled so hard to damage, was effortlessly taken down by Captain Void Blade in one round.

This wasn't just a matter of strength, but also of coordination, understanding, restraint, equipment, and other professional factors.

The Cockroach Monster, now without wings and limbs, was lying on the ground, wriggling with its rear in a continuous heave.

Dark green viscous fluid kept oozing from its wounds.

Void Blade glanced at the Cockroach Monster and commanded:

"Crying Feather, help it stop the bleeding, don't let it die. We might be able to use this thing to find the Heavenly Lodge Insect Mother."

The man known as Crying Feather, with long hair, looked at the disgusting sight of the Cockroach Monster and immediately showed a reluctant bitter expression, but under Void Blade's expressionless gaze, he could only nod sullenly in agreement.

"Jing, you write the mission report and also apply for a 'Tracker' from above..."

The petite girl named Jing nodded, reaching into her backpack to pull out a small laptop.

While they were taking care of the aftermath, the Mountain Demon stepped up to Xue Jing.

He rested the short stick on his shoulder and teased, "Hey, genius, you seem a bit disheveled, huh?"

Xue Jing was unconcerned and simply smiled, "You guys arrived pretty quickly."

From the moment he called Captain Void Blade to now, it had been no more than ten minutes, all things considered.

"The captain arranged a helicopter immediately after receiving the call. We flew over directly from South City... This is considered slow. In dangerous places like the Intersecting Boundaries, any delay in support could spell annihilation."

Mountain Demon sighed.

A thought struck Xue Jing, and he asked, "South City... did you guys find anything there?"

Mountain Demon shook his head, "That unfinished building complex is huge. We've been searching for a long time, and we've covered less than a third so far, without any findings."

Xue Jing pondered for a moment, then said, "I might have a new clue."

Mountain Demon's eyes lit up, "Oh? Do share."

By this time, Void Blade had finished arranging the aftermath work and walked over.

Hearing Xue Jing's words, she brushed her short hair aside and inquired:

"What clue is that?"

Xue Jing recounted his recent encounter with Duan Kaiping of the Razor Gang.

"That man is a member of the Razor Gang from South City, and also a disciple of the Golden Wind Dojo... It's really strange that he would appear inside Qingcheng Affiliated Middle School, and he was the first person killed by the Cockroach Monster," he said.

Void Blade mused, "Are you suggesting that this creature was brought into the school by that man named Duan Kaiping?"

Xue Jing was unsure, "Maybe... But I've had some friction with this Duan Kaiping before, so it's not out of the question that he came to the school to cause me trouble..."

...

As Xue Jing was talking with the White Crow Squad, the teachers and students in the distance, who were spectating, breathed sighs of relief upon seeing the terrifying monster disembodied on the ground.

"So terrifying, that monster."

"Who are those people? So impressive, they handled that monster in just a few moves!"

"Does Xue know them?"

"Such a cool sister, with such a great figure..."

The schoolgirl Lin Shiyu, watching Xue Jing chatting lively with the White Crow Squad from afar, was overwhelmed by a strong sense that she was in a completely different world from him.

With a bitter expression, she shook her head, finally letting go of some of her unrealistic fantasies.

Meanwhile, the Elite Class homeroom teacher, Du Shiwei, was standing with a portly middle-aged man in his fifties.

"Mr. Du, you've taught a fine student," the portly middle-aged man said with a smile as he looked at Xue Jing in the distance.

Still shaken, Du Shiwei hastily replied, "It's all thanks to our principal's leadership that our Affiliated Middle School can cultivate such outstanding students."

Principal Tang Yanzhong waved his hand, "Hey, no need for those flattering words."

He walked two steps, a thoughtful look in his eyes as he said,

"This Classmate Xue is so formidable. In fact, he could take the 'martial examination' route into Inner Ring University."

...

The long-haired man from the White Crow Squad, Crying Feather, was holding a bandage, walking towards the cockroach monster wriggling on the ground.

He looked at the cockroach monster with disgust and spat out, "Disgusting thing."

But he couldn't disobey the captain's orders and, despite the revulsion, crouched down, unwound the bandage, and wrapped it around the cockroach monster again and again, like mummifying it.

The compound eyes of the cockroach monster gazed at him dimly.

After roughly binding it with the bandage, Crying Feather shook off the dark green mucus from his hand and stood up, turning to shout towards Captain Void Blade,

"Captain, it's done—"

His voice abruptly stopped.

Xue Jing and Captain Void Blade turned their heads to look at him.

But they saw Crying Feather standing frozen in place, his face filled with disbelief.

Captain Void Blade's complexion changed drastically as he yelled sharply, "Jing, get away from there now!"

The petite girl who had been sitting on the ground tapping on her laptop keyboard, upon hearing this, stood up without hesitation and ran to the side.

"Slash—"

Crying Feather was torn in half like a piece of paper, his blood and viscera spilling all over the ground.

Responsible for this result were two insect legs covered in barbs.

The Mountain Demon's pupils contracted, disbelievingly uttering, "Super-speed regeneration?"

"No, it's molting, damn it!"

He looked behind Crying Feather's corpse to see an even bigger cockroach monster standing there, bathed in blood.

And on the ground, there was an additional cocoon of bandages that was the cockroach's 'shell'!

The freshly molted cockroach monster's whole body was a milky white color, its limbs and thin wings had regrown, and its body had become even more massive.

Its newly born milky-white exoskeleton was rapidly turning black before their very eyes.

"Croak—"

"Ahhh!!"

The teachers and students witnessing this scene were so frightened they felt as if they had lost their souls and once again ran outside.

The reborn cockroach monster spread its four thin wings at its back, flapping them madly, stirring up a cloud of dust and debris, and took off into the sky.

"Damn it, it's trying to escape!" Mountain Demon yelled.

Captain Void Blade's eyes shone with a cold light, "It can't escape—"

She immediately activated the Dragon Wing Device, and an anti-gravity field enveloped her whole body, lifting her into the air as she was about to give chase.

At that moment, Xue Jing beside her made a move.

"Captain Void Blade, can I borrow a knife?" Xue Jing asked.

Without waiting for a response from Captain Void Blade, Xue Jing reached out and took a blade from her waist.

He weighed the blade in his hand, roughly estimated the distance, and then took a deep breath.

His breathing skills activated, his strength surged, a dragon's chant ensued.

Spiraled indentations appeared on his arm wielding the blade, extending to his fingertips.

His Lv5 aiming abilities hadn't been put to major use in a long time.

Xue Jing's gaze moved upward, firmly locking onto the cockroach monster in the sky.

Whirlwind Thunder, compressing strength to its limit.

Power of Twins, Twin Speed—

Xue Jing's gaze sharpened.

"Boom!"

A thunderclap roared as a blade tore through the void, carrying a visible white current of air, spiraling like a blade towards the cockroach monster.

Like a meteor, like lightning, in the blink of an eye before anyone could react, a flash of white light.

"Puff—"

The cockroach monster in the air suddenly had a spiral hole with a thirty-centimeter diameter burst open in its chest, its flapping came to a sudden stop, and it slowly fell from the sky.

In that moment, Xue Jing once again entered the state of Stone-throwing Immortal.
