1170 Man’s Ocean

Seeing Han Sen walk towards the fourth floor, Qiu Ping chose to follow.

Han Sen asked around for the entrance that would take him to the prestigious fifth floor, as that was his next destination.

But suddenly, Qiu Ping appeared before him to bar his path.

"You really are going to the fifth floor, aren't you?" Qiu Ping said.

Han Sen nodded, and told him, "How else am I going to learn the truth? I need to go there if I aim to receive the answers I am looking for."

"Okay. Then take this strike!" Qiu Ping brought out his sword with an alarming amount of calmness.

It was an unsettling calmness, full of the tension that preceded a storm.

Han Sen did not think Qiu Ping was as good as he believed himself to be. Han Sen had encountered other humans before who had opened their gene locks through the assistance of spirits. They were much weaker than humans whose strength had been unlocked through deeds of their own.
