What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 502
502 Path of a Humanoid Dharma treasure (1)
“You are making it look like it’s my fault, aren’t you?”
Song Shi clenched his fists. The more he looked at this guy, the more he wanted to beat him up.
“I wouldn’t dare. It’s my fault, it’s my fault.” The Purgatory Demonic Furnace was so frightened that it no longer used its own name.
“I remember now. You’re a Dharma treasure. You wouldn’t die even if I dismantle it.”
Song Shi was not done yet. He kicked the Purgatory Demonic Furnace’s face, sending it flying far away.
“Ah!”
The Purgatory Demonic Furnace screamed miserably. Flames flickered as it tried to slip away again.
In front of a great divine power like Divine Teleportation Footwork, how could the Purgatory Demonic Furnace escape? It actually took the initiative to collide with Song Shi’s fist and was sent flying, shattering many meteors.
“You feel pain?”
Song Shi did not quite understand. “It must be an act.”
Clang! Clang! Clang!
He grabbed the Purgatory Demonic Furnace and punched it a few times. The sturdy furnace began to transform.
“Stop hitting me. I’m not faking it. I have a mind of my own. I scream when I’m hit.”
The Purgatory Demonic Furnace explained and tried to escape, but Song Shi’s speed was too fast. No matter how it tried to dodge, it could not.
It was bombarded crazily by Song Shi, and the force in its punches and kicks was so strong that it caused her to Morph violently.
Song Shi’s corporeal body was terrifyingly powerful. It was not inferior to the Purgatory Demonic Furnace. With the augmentation of Nomological power, the Purgatory Demonic Furnace was naturally insufficient and was not his match at all.
Sensing that its body was actually starting to crack, the Purgatory Demonic Furnace cried out, “I was wrong. Brother, Master, Senior, I shouldn’t have offended you.”
“What’s it called? There’s a saying that one can’t build without destruction. I’m promoting your improvement.”
Song Shi spoke righteously. He felt that it was quite refreshing to beat him up. This fellow could be considered to have thick skin and thick flesh. Even after being beaten up by him, it did not break on the spot.
If it were a cultivator of the same realm or even a Body Integration cultivator, it would be very difficult for them to be beaten up like this.
However, the Purgatory Demonic Furnace was scared out of its wits by these words. It cried, “I’ll really be very miserable if it’s broken. Please spare me.”
“You talk too much. Shut up.”
Song Shi smashed his face and smashed the other party’s mouth. Then, he used a storm of attacks, not giving the other party a chance to speak.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
If it was on the continent, every collision would destroy a mountain. In this void, other than shattering many meteors, there was no damage.
The empty space gave Song Shi more space to use. He fought all the way without any obstacles. It could be said to be satisfying.
If Song Shi was happy, the Purgatory Demon Furnace would be in trouble.
The originally exquisite body that had been refined was twisted and Morphed. The smooth surface was covered in cracks, the holy light was dim, and the spirituality was lost. It was as if it had just been pinched out again.
“You’re too much. I have my temper and dignity. Don’t force me!”
Feeling that he was about to collapse, the Purgatory Demonic Furnace could no longer maintain its calm and put on a resistance posture.
“Haha.”
Song Shi only sneered and pointed out with his finger. With a crack, a hole appeared on the Void Refinement Demonic Furnace.
The Purgatory Demonic Furnace was so angry that it was spitting fire. “If it can be tolerated, what can’t be tolerated? I’ll fight it out with you.”
It released all its power and turned the surroundings into a Purgatory Furnace.
Song Shi ignored the flames and continued to smash wildly. The Purgatory Demonic Furnace emitted unbearable sounds as it became more and more damaged.
With a cracking sound, the Purgatory Demonic Furnace could not withstand it anymore. Its body split into pieces, and its spirituality was greatly damaged.
Song Shi bathed in the flames that filled the sky and exhaled. He looked at the Purgatory Demonic Furnace that had been dismantled into pieces. “Not bad. It lasted for a long time.”
The shattered Purgatory Demonic Furnace could no longer speak. It floated in the Void like a dead dog. There was still power diffusing between the fragments. It was like a lotus root that was instinctively recovering.
Song Shi clapped his hands and released his Nomological power to store the broken Purgatory Demonic Furnace. He waited quietly on the spot.
This place was quite far from the Black Tortoise Palace and was relatively close to the Heavenly Demon World. He believed that the demons would come over to investigate after sensing the death of the Fire Lotus Demon Saint.
Even if he did not discover them, he did not believe that the demons did not notice such a huge commotion.
As he waited quietly, the Purgatory Demonic Furnace continued to recover. Song Shi watched from the side.
“Numinous treasures are quite powerful. They can actually be restored. It looks like I was right not to destroy it completely.”
He sized up the state of the Purgatory Demonic Furnace with interest.
This fellow’s life form was completely different from his. The other party was essentially an inanimate object, but because of some good fortune, it possessed intelligence and even developed intelligence. It belonged to another kind of special living being.
The other party had broken free from the restrictions of his physical body and could survive by relying on the bodies of Dharma treasures. In theory, if Dharma treasures did not destroy or decay, there would basically be no concept of death.
“Does this count as immortality?”
Song Shi stroked his chin and pondered. “However, the flaws in this kind of existence are too obvious. Because it’s a Dharma treasure, it’s very easy for someone to control it through an engraved array formation. Furthermore, if you want to upgrade it, you have to rely on external forces to refine it.”
“However, cultivators also have flaws. Their bodies of flesh and blood can’t exist for hundreds of thousands or millions of years like Dharma treasures. There’s a lifespan limit. Even if they become immortals, they might not be able to avoid such a thing.”
Song Shi wondered if there was a way to combine the advantages of the two. His body was like a Dharma treasure, undying and indestructible. At the same time, he had Nomological power and was not controlled by others.
“Someone must have studied it before. I don’t know what results there are.”
Song Shi muttered to himself. Then, he thought of something and looked at himself in surprise. “Wait, isn’t that what I am now? It’s obvious that my body is a Dharma treasure. At the same time, I’m a cultivator.”
He thought for a while. Perhaps he was not a pure cultivator, but a humanoid Dharma treasure cultivator. However, he should not be too pure. He could probably study this fellow’s condition and learn.
