Chapter 143: Chapter 107: Xue Jing, Ambushed and Unarmed, Faces a High Wall Against Armed Assault (4K)
My vision has become even stronger.
Xue Jing slid open the glass door, stepped onto the balcony, and looked out at the street scene.
His pupils focused and underwent a slight change, imprinting every detail of the scene into his eyes.
Already enhanced by the Organ Training, coupled with the Lv7 Aiming skill, as long as there was no obstruction along his line of sight, he could clearly see objects dozens of kilometers away.
Xue Jing's gaze settled on a large tree at the roadside, several kilometers away.
Through the gaps in the green leaves, he clearly saw a stink bug lying on the tree trunk, sucking plant juices.
With a thought, Xue Jing's pupils turned luminescent white, as if bathed in moonlight.
Silently, the stink bug split symmetrically down the middle, with even the tiny feeding apparatus cut perfectly in two, the precision was exceedingly exaggerated.
"Eh, it works at this distance too?"
Xue Jing was slightly surprised.
He had merely thought about it and instinctively tried the Tsukuyomi Slash at this distance, not expecting it to actually succeed.
From over a dozen kilometers away, he had sliced the bug into two pieces.
Xue Jing closed his eyes to feel the state of his spirit's consumption.
"...It's the same as when cutting the crucian carp, there's no increased consumption due to distance."
He had a guess in mind.
"Let's experiment once more."
Xue Jing looked around, then walked to a corner of the balcony where an angle allowed him to avoid a large building and open up a wider view.
He then adjusted his eyes' focus, aiming his sight at the rooftop of an apartment building almost thirty kilometers away.
There was a row of plastic handrails for drying clothes.
Suddenly, one of the handrails developed a sharp split, almost severing it completely in two, with just a layer of plastic barely holding it together, hanging by a thread.
Xue Jing withdrew his gaze, the luminescent white disappearing from his eyes.
"As expected... the consumption is exactly the same."
Xue Jing muttered to himself.
Tsukuyomi Slash was more powerful than he had originally thought.
The range of this move was equivalent to his field of vision!
As long as his eyes could clearly see a place, he could unleash this move.
"This is a mechanism skill... the range ignores the spirit value, and hinges only on the mechanism..."
"Assassinations from dozens of kilometers away... who the hell would expect that."

And this wasn't the limit.
As his vision became stronger and he could see further and further...
And if somehow, he could obtain some sort of x-ray ability to see past visual obstructions.
Perhaps one day, he could snipe someone on the other side of Earth Star from half a planet away.
"What about intercontinental sniper rifles..."
"Feels like a beautiful mechanism."
Xue Jing pinched his chin.
Just as he was contemplating the wonderful prospects of Tsukuyomi Slash, the sound of keys turning came from the main door.
Xue Jing walked from the balcony into the living room, just as the door opened and Ning Fengwan, in her cat-eared girl form wearing glasses, walked in.
She was carrying several semi-transparent white plastic bags in her hands, which appeared to contain vegetables, meats, and other assorted household items.
"Teacher Wan, you went grocery shopping."
Xue Jing approached and spoke softly as he reached out to take the bags from her.
Ning Fengwan adjusted the glasses perched delicately on her nose, the lenses reflecting light.
She was dressed in a light-yellow cotton linen dress with a black bow tied at the neckline, a sash wrapped around her slender waist, accentuating the plumpness and curvature above and below.
The overall fresh and sweet attire, along with her just-below-the-knee skirt, showcased her perfectly proportioned, jade-like long legs, and the eye-catching cat ears on her head...
Barely noticeable.
Like a rock by the roadside, not eye-catching at all.
"These glasses are really useful."
Ning Fengwan nodded in satisfaction.
The GOD-1280 that Wu Youqing had given to Xue Jing, she had been using lately.
With these glasses that suppressed her presence, she could now move around outside in her human form without fear of being discovered.
Xue Jing began to put away the groceries Feng Wan had bought, chuckling at her comment.
"They are indeed useful... just a shame they can't be used on you anymore."
He said with a touch of regret.
A few days ago he had used the glasses for a cosplay, exploiting the burst of suppressed presence to extract a wave of Divinity from Feng Wan, triggering her activation of the second Heretic God ability of Bastet.
It was named – The Invincible Lionheart.
Whether by coincidence or not, one effect of this ability was to become immune to mental disruptions.
Although Xue Jing did not know the extent of this immunity, he tried the full day's suppression and then released a burst of allure on Feng Wan the next day, and she... remained unmoved.
The idea of using the GOD-1280 to extract a large amount of Divinity each day was thus abandoned.
"Hmph, the same trick cannot be used on a Saint Fighter twice," Feng Wan said as she sat on the sofa, arms crossed, a smirk of pride on her pretty face.
Her cat tail waved uncontrollably behind her.
Hearing her words, Xue Jing simply shook his head and laughed, washing his hands as he casually said,
"We're taking a ship to Maple City tomorrow, do you need to prepare anything..."
...
The next day, in the South City docks,
Xue Jing, dragging a black trolley suitcase, headed towards the ticket checkpoint.
The Crouching Rabbit Sword was tied with a rope to the suitcase, and on top of it sat a black cat with four white gloves.
"Pets aren't allowed on the cruise, and we're going through security shortly, you'll have to find your own way on board, no problem, right?"
Xue Jing said to Miao Miao.
