Chapter 380 - Encounters

Others were walking around and alertly looking around them in search of Ki and others that had been able to slip away.

One man had walked past a large amount of rocks that had been piled up and turned his head to look towards the blind spot that he had not checked yet.

The moment that he had stuck his head around, a sharp blade had pierced through his eye socket and he remained on the spot for a moment before falling down to the ground.

The sharp blade had been removed just before the body fell down and Ki stepped out.

She went forward and was met with an arrow that was flying towards her which had caused her to raise the blade to meet it.

The arrow was knocked away from her body and another had flown towards her again.

She moved forward and kept deflecting the incoming arrows until she appeared in front of the archer who was trying to back off to gain more ground.

The blade was thrust forward and pierced their throat which ended their life very quickly.

The blood on the blade travelled up towards the hilt then moved towards the hand of Ki before disappearing up her sleeves.

The mystical patterns on her body had glowed red underneath her clothing but had barely been made visible due to the many layers that were on her body.

The blood was absorbed by the patterns on her body and she kept moving further down the mountain as she met more enemies.

Each one was killed very quickly without being able to put up much of a fight against her.

The quality of the martial artists that had been sent out to those parts of the mountain was not something that posed any kind of real threat to her.

It was like she was just playing around with their lives and not taking them too seriously as she had swiftly ended their lives.

There was little time wasted as she killed each person as efficiently as possible before continuing further down the mountain.

Many had attempted to fight back using hooks, pikes, blades and all kinds of deadly weapons but she had danced around her enemies with unpredictable movements before landing a fatal strike.

She continued further down and had come across another group and she had found them to be a little familiar or unusual compared to those she had been dealing with.

Their bodies did not look as well built as the others so it was very easy to underestimate them but Ki had already identified them as being just as dangerous or more troublesome as the others.

The clothing were similar to one person that Ki had seen already when she was attacked on her way up the mountain before her breakthrough to the Unrestrained Realm.

Ki did not approach right away and did not reveal herself to the enemy but waited patiently for an opportunity.

Two out of six people had wandered to her direction so she had backed off and found a place to hide but kept a watch over who had been passing by or entering.

That person she had spotted had appeared with another which caused her to jumped forward and she threw out the blade towards them.

The blade pierced their body and completely caught them off guard then the other person had jumped to their defence. "Ugh."

"Enemy attack!"

The other person had alerted the others nearby but had felt a sharp pain hit their chest as a palm was sent towards them.

They were knocked flying away and had their ribcage broken just like others that had been hit by her palm.

The toughness and power of her physical body alone was enough to cause a large amount of force that could break the bones and greatly injure those within her own realm that did not train their body in some way so it was even more deadly against lower ranked martial artists.

Ki had only been using her Qi to help with her movements and did not even need to make use of it to make her palm strikes or other attacks more lethal.

The people Ki had identified as being far more dangerous than the others had been targeted first and were ambushed to allow her to be able to kill the others without being hindered by the strange techniques they possessed.

Ki kept moving from group to group as she left many corpses behind her and the lower down the mountain that she had gotten to, the more of them there were and the stronger they were.

Most of the martial artists were only considered to be between third rate and peak stage but she had yet to come across anyone close to her own realm that had made her feel any kind of threat or posed any difficulty.

It started to become much clearer to Ki that everyone had moved their main forces towards certain areas where it was much better strategically and required the most attention to be able to achieve their goals.

A smile appeared on her face as she was almost back to where she had to abandon her sled. 'Time to reunite with everyone.'

Her body crept through the obstructions in her path and she found herself looking over a familiar path that was down below.

It had several trails that were left behind from the sleds and dogs being dragged away so she had followed it.
