What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 159
159 Identity Exposed
Song Shi’s hair danced in the wind, and his clothes fluttered. However, his body was like an old tree rooted to the ground, not moving at all.
Fang Gang felt as if he had slammed into a diamond mountain. The power of this person’s Spirit Body formed a golden bell that blocked all the power.
At this moment, the flames in Song Shi’s palm lit up brightly and he actually erupted with power again. The fire dragon twisted, and a recoil force erupted like a volcano, forcing Fang Gang to retreat.
“How is that possible? How can my Spirit Body be inferior to his?!”
He was indignant. He was the one who initiated the attack just now, but he was forced back in the end. How could he be stronger than him?
!!
However, a short period of time was not enough to determine the final outcome. As someone who had experienced hundreds of battles, he was not discouraged.
As Fang Gang retreated, he quickly adjusted his state of mind. His aura immediately became as steady as a mountain.
“The blood-robed elder’s physical body is also very powerful. That was really unexpected.”
Fang Gang spoke and secretly searched for this person’s flaws to prepare for the next round of attack.
On the top of the ship, Shi Tianya, who was overlooking both sides of the battle, became more serious.
Originally, he only wanted to bully this person who had just formed his Golden Core because of his disdain towards him. Now, it seemed that this old ghost was really not simple.
Lu Youyou’s expression did not look good too. She felt that her plan of beating up the Blood-Robed old ghost could no longer be realized.
“Elder is amazing.”
Bai Xiaoqin watched nervously. Song Shi was the only person she could rely on to survive here. His glory was related to her status.
“Blood-robed Elder, take a look at my Mountain Shattering Fist.”
Fang Gang turned his palm into a fist. With a domineering aura, he smashed it down ferociously, as if he wanted to shatter a mountain.
“Senior Brother Fang even used the Mountain Shattering Fist. This is a fourth-grade divine power.”
“I heard that when this divine power is cultivated to the Great Mastery stage, a casual punch can shatter a large mountain.”
“I’m also preparing to cultivate this divine power in the future. I have to take a good look at how he is doing it.”
“This new elder’s palm technique is not bad either. Its power is shocking. I wonder what rank it is.”
The people on the ship discussed enthusiastically, looking even more engrossed than the two sides in the battle.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The black and gold figures collided again. Their attacks were extremely powerful and domineering, causing the air to explode continuously like muffled thunder.
Song Shi continued to use the Dragon Subduing Palm. This divine power had reached the fifth-grade. In theory, it could unleash a powerful might at the Soul Transformation realm.
Martial arts divine arts were the same as spells. They could mobilize the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and even the power of heaven and earth. The higher the grade, the higher the cultivation level, and the more power they could mobilize. The difference was that the former was based on the meridians of the person, while the latter was released based on cultivated spells.
Because the grade of his Dragon Subduing Palm was one grade higher than the Mountain Shattering Fist, the proportion of Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth he attracted when he used it was higher. In a collision, he had an advantage.
As for the difference in cultivation realm, it was nothing under the enhancement of his thick Nomological power.
As a result, Song Shi, who had just formed his Gold Core, was actually able to casually exchange blows with Fang Gang without feeling at a disadvantage.
RUMBLE!
The power of Song Shi’s palms turned into a fire dragon that circled around, constantly knocking back the fist that was like a small mountain. The aftershocks that spread caused countless cracks to appear on the ground.
A hillside was smashed by Fang Gang, creating a huge fissure in the ground.
Song Shi’s Dharmic powers struck the ground, creating a deep pit. The soil melted on the spot.
As they clashed, Song Shi’s Dharmic powers, which had just broken through, became more proficient. Coupled with the enhancement of his footwork, his movements became more agile, and his explosive power increased.
“Oh no, I’ve become his practice target.”
Sensing that Song Shi’s combat strength was increasing, Fang Gang was a little anxious. He knew that if this continued, he might embarrass himself today.
Among the people watching the show, those with discerning eyes also sensed that something was wrong.
“This is troublesome. Fang Gang has really become a sparring partner.”
Shi Tianya frowned. This person’s strength was so powerful that even if he attacked continuously, it would be very difficult to achieve the effect of beating him up.
“Rising Dragon!”
Song Shi suddenly shouted in a low voice. His hands changed nimbly and he targeted Fang Gang’s weakness. His palm force broke through the Defense and landed on Fang Gang’s body.
With a loud bang, Fang Gang’s physique only blocked a portion of the palm force. The rest caused him to vomit blood. His tall body flew out and caused a mountain slope to cave in.
He struggled to get up, but he did not have enough strength. In the end, he half-knelt on the ground. His face turned pale and he looked dispirited.
“Senior Brother Fang actually lost!”
Some of the audience were shocked. It was rare for Fang Gang, who had a strong physique, to lose to this new elder in close combat.
After all, in the sect, core disciples were the most talented. Not to mention that Senior Brother Fang’s cultivation was a level higher than the new elder.
“That’s it?”
Song Shi was unsatisfied. He felt that this was just a warm-up.
“Hmph, of course I can still fight!”
Fang Gang refused to admit defeat. In the end, as he tried to get up, his face turned red and he spat out a large mouthful of blood before collapsing back down.
“What’s going on? Isn’t Senior Brother Fang’s physical body very powerful? How did he end up like this after being struck by a palm?”
“It seems that although Senior Brother Fang looks powerful, his foundation is actually unstable.”
“Perhaps the new elder’s palm force is more ruthless.”
Those who did not understand the situation were rather disappointed. As there were many people who usually did not get along with Fang Gang, they mocked him instead.
“Gang’er, the fire has already entered your body and injured your heart meridians. Don’t force yourself!”
A low shout came from the sky. A thin and weak old man appeared, looking extremely angry.
Song Shi looked up and felt that this guy was very dangerous.
The other party’s body looked rather thin and weak, but it was actually even more terrifying than Fang Gang’s. He could tell that it contained terrifying power.
In particular, there were two ghost heads, one red and one white, on each of his exposed arms. They were similar to the ghost heads on Fang Gang’s chest, but their auras were different.
The fiery red ghost head actually contained a scorching aura. The aura was so white that it gave people the illusion that it was indestructible.
Indeed, people with tattoos were not simple.
The old man was just floating in the air, but Song Shi felt a faint sense of oppression. He was definitely a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Song Shi searched the Blood-Robed old ghost’s memories and found information about this person.
He was the Heavenly Ghost Sect’s Mountain Moving Daoist, who cultivated the Five Ghosts Mountain Moving Technique. This cultivation technique belonged to the Daoist sect, but it was also a Ghost Dao technique. It was a very powerful technique.
When one cultivated the cultivation technique to the Great Mastery realm, they would have the power to move mountains. Back then, before the Blood-Robed old ghost even became famous, this old man had already reached the Golden Core realm. His qualifications were even above that of Perfected Lord Ghost Butcher.
“Master, I’m useless.”
Fang Gang said in shame when he saw the old man.
“Useless my ass. Your martial arts aren’t good enough and you can’t block his Pure Yang True Fire. The fire entered your body during combat and you unknowingly suffered a loss. Go back and continue cultivating!”
The black-faced elder cursed. He reached out and grabbed Fang Gang. He looked at Song Shi and said, “Old ghost, you have a solid foundation after re-cultivating and possession. If you have the ability to form the Nascent Soul, I will definitely spar with you.”
“You wait for me then. I’ll be quick.”
Song Shi looked confident. Nascent Soul Formation? This goal was quite far for him and he did not know the steps to do so yet.
However, he decided that this would not affect him from finding Nascent Souls that he can possess to steal their experience. When the time came, he would also be able to farm deaths and gain another wave or rewards and resources.
“Hehe, let’s talk about it later.”
The old Daoist left behind a meaningful sentence and left with his disciple. However they did not enter the Supreme Kraken Ship.
Song Shi looked into the distance. Many figures were hiding in the dark.
He came to a realization. During his sparring with Fang Gang, he had completely revealed himself to the sect members. It was most likely that the identity of the Blood-Robed old ghost had also been exposed.
In that case, Blood-Robed old ghost’s enemies would probably be notified by ‘his’ appearance.
