Chapter 40: Peeping at the Sacred Law
Thanks for the rewards from book friends "Da Qin Xianfeng", "Tan Tan De Ni Wo Ta", "Chen Qi Qi", "Lao Tian Ci" and "Shu Zhong Zhi You".
There is only one update today, and two updates will resume tomorrow. Due to my poor mood, the update was not up to par, so I'd like to apologize to everyone for that.
————
Just barely escaped from death, this system gave itself another task, and there's no reward for this task either.
"Failure... deducting 10 cumulative points..."
"Alright, it seems like I have no choice. Jiang Xiao Yu helplessly shook his head, then stood up and looked towards the Longevity Tree, saying: "Something unexpected has come up and I need to leave now.""
"Come find me before you leave." - Longsheng Tree
Jiang Xiaoyu didn't ask why, but nodded instead. Then he followed the system's instructions and left in big strides. Who knows what happened to that monkey, yet he still had to go save him!
"Big brother, you must hold on!"
Jiang Xiaoyu prayed in his heart, otherwise he would be deducted ten points! The hard-won promotion points couldn't be deducted just like that!
……
……
A certain empty space, two figures constantly intersecting! In the end, both parties stopped and saw each other's appearance clearly.
One of them was a giant golden ape, holding a large iron rod in its hand, staring at the old man with a ferocious face. The old man was not unfamiliar either, it was that person who had been spying on Sun Xiaokong's battle against the Holy Law!
Sun Xiaokong's entire right chest was severely injured, with blood constantly flowing out, while the elderly man had no unusual symptoms and looked calm. Judging from the current situation, the former is at a disadvantage.
Sun Xiaokong's eyes widened, since he started practicing, no one in the same realm could make him suffer such a heavy injury. Now that he has cultivated the Dou Zhan Sheng Fa, this unparalleled divine ability, one-on-one, he is absolutely an invincible existence.
But now, a small old man who was unknown before, has actually forced himself to this point!
The elder said calmly, "You're indeed the Spirit Ape of One Grain. Your physical strength is astonishing. However, if you continue to fight like this, how much blood can you spare? Hand over the cultivation method of the Divine Battle Saint Law and I'll spare your life."
"Haha!" Sun Xiaokong laughed loudly, not caring about the wounds on his body. He continued to say: "Old thief, you've been messing around for half a day, and it turns out you want my Dou Zhan Sheng Fa? If you have the ability, come and take it!"
It's really the Divine Battle Saint Law! The eyes of the clan elder lit up instantly, his heart was extremely excited. He had originally only been guessing and wasn't sure. But now from Sun Xiao Kong's words, he got confirmation.
The Douzhan Shengfa unfolded, and a stick subdued the sky! The rod's shadow swept across the sky, and it was impossible to count how many there were! He was truly enraged now, this native actually spied on his Douzhan Shengfa, which he had waited in line for so long to obtain!
And is his grandson Xiao Kong the master being threatened? Such words will only further enrage him!
"You're so stubborn and ignorant, I'll kill you!"
The old man took a step forward, and in an instant he was beside Sun Xiao. He saw him slap out with his palm, wanting to grab the opponent's iron rod. If it weren't for this iron rod, the opponent's combat strength would surely be greatly reduced, and dealing with him would also become much simpler!
"Fight!"
The divine ape's eyes blazed with flames, this old scoundrel is too detestable! Unconsciously, the might of his staff also rose by several degrees. However, the actual strength of this tribal elder was abnormal, and in the end, he still grasped the iron staff in his hand.
"This is an iron rod that can't even break beast bones! He actually caught it with such a light tone, the elder exerted a slight force, and this iron rod instantly left Sun Xiaokong's hand, and was then flung aside by him."
Sun Xiao Kong, who lost his iron rod, was like a toothless tiger. His ferocity remained, but his combat strength had greatly decreased compared to before. Adding to the injuries he sustained earlier, he was now breathing rapidly.
The old man's palm was ruthless, and then another slap came out, landing heavily on the opponent's chest. Sun Xiaokong's huge body was instantly blown away for tens of meters!
"Cough! Cough!" Sun Xiaokong coughed violently, with fresh blood constantly spitting out of his mouth.
This is the first time it has been so severely damaged! Among peers, no one is its opponent, and the strong in the Huilong Secret Realm dare not act rashly against it due to its identity. However, in this ancient relic, everyone's realm is suppressed at the initial stage, but the combat power shown by this old man is astonishing!
He couldn't understand why he, who had already reached the peak of the Initial Sensation Realm, didn't have even a bit of strength to resist in front of this native.
That old man suddenly laughed inexplicably, looking like he was a bit crazy. "You know? Fifty years have passed, exactly fifty years! Now I'm sixty-seven years old, and in a few more years, I might return to dust."
"Haha, the Divine Battle Saint Law! I never thought that in my lifetime, I would actually encounter one of the legendary Five Great Saint Laws! Heaven won't destroy me!"
"I, He Zhiqing! I started cultivating at the age of five and reached the peak of initial awakening at six. However, due to the suppression of heaven and earth, I was unable to break through for a long time. In my thirtieth year, I broke through life and death in an invasion by fierce beasts and survived. Do you know? I actually broke through the 72 acupoints!"
"Seventy-three...not many, just broke through one. But you know what that means! Means I've broken the limit of my initial feeling and entered a brand new realm!"
The indigenous elder's words were astonishing! Seventy-three acupoints... Sun Xiaokong's eyes widened, and he finally understood why the gap between him and his opponent was so great. Although it was only a difference of one digit, his opponent had broken through a certain limit, and no one knew just how formidable seventy-three acupoints were.
But now Sun Xiao Kong knew that he had been suppressed by the opponent all along, and believed that if the opponent were not old and frail, his combat power would be even more astonishing!
It originated from the Divine Mountain, and among them, there was a spiritual ape lineage. A fragmentary ancient book once recorded that their ancestors had extraordinary talents, breaking through the boundary rules, and thus stepping into a brand new realm of heaven and earth!
Unexpectedly, I've now run into someone who has ill intentions towards me!
Sun Xiaokong sneered and struggled to get up from the ground, his left hand covering his right chest. He looked at his opponent coldly and said, "What about the 73 acupoints? What about breaking through the limits? I'm not afraid!"
The last sentence was completely shouted out, Sun Xiao Kong's body moved, and he quickly approached the old indigenous man, punching him heavily!
The old man did not expect that the other party still had the strength to fight, and in a moment of unpreparedness, he hurriedly joined his arms together to resist!
Boom!
He was knocked back several steps, this is because he didn't prepare well enough, otherwise it would be Sun Xiaokong who would suffer.
The Tongling Shenyuan is extremely warlike, they are born for battle and die in battle. They do not fear death in combat, what they fear most is a life of mediocrity and dying in their own beds. To die, one must die in battle!
"Alright, alright! I'd like to see how long you can hold on." The elder's anger turned into a sneer.
He struck with ruthless ferocity, each move seemingly fatal, yet all left room for mercy. The opponent hadn't revealed the cultivation method of the Battle Saint Technique, how could he let it die? He wanted to see just how stubborn this monkey could be.
"The five great sacred laws are matchless, as long as I obtain them and cultivate to the highest level, I can break through this world and go out into the outside world!" The elder was thinking to himself, his palm constantly slapping against the opponent's body.
He broke through the extreme, from any angle, he is absolutely a genius among geniuses! It's not an exaggeration to call him a freak. So, why should he stay here? The outside world is a vast and free sky, where he can fly even further!
He once proposed leaving here, but was opposed by many people. Since then, he has never mentioned it again. However, the idea has always been in his heart and has never faded away.
To break through this world, the combat power must reach an unimaginable level. Unfortunately, although there are many divine spirits within the clan, almost none can achieve this level. Once, due to an accident, he flipped through an ancient book that recorded the legend of the Five Great Sacred Laws.
Now that he has finally encountered the legendary Dou Zhan Sheng Fa, how can he give it up?
"Damn it!" Sun Xiaokong gritted his teeth, propping up his body with all his might, refusing to fall.
"Surrender the Divine Battle Law, and I'll spare your life. Otherwise, I'll let you experience all sorts of painful tastes!" The elder's eyes flashed with a cold glint, his gaze seeming to devour his opponent whole.
"I've heard that the flesh and blood of the divine gibbon is quite good, eating it can strengthen one's foundation and cultivate one's essence, it's a great tonic."
"You son of a turtle egg! I'm going to fight you!" Sun Xiaokong finally couldn't bear it anymore, he summoned his last bit of strength and dodged the opponent's palm.
Then he punched and pushed him out!
This time Chang Zhiqing was well-prepared and wouldn't let him get away easily. Fist against fist, he was again repelled several steps back!
"How is this possible! How did our combat strength increase so much?" Chang Zhiqing was extremely surprised.
At the same time, a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes. The demon tribe was born with greater potential than humans. At such a critical moment, he could actually burst out with such divine power... This is the gap between innate talents...
Its potential burst out thoroughly, all the golden fur on its body stood up, and it can be seen how angry it is. How dare you even think of eating your own flesh and blood? This old scoundrel will never succeed! However, it also knows that this state cannot last for long, but even if it dies, it will absolutely not let the opponent get away with it!
The two fought fiercely, as Sun Xiao's ferocity burst out, and for a moment, the indigenous elder was slightly at a disadvantage. There was no way around it, the demonic tribe's pure blood was too powerful, although not comparable to that of a fierce beast, but also absolutely not something that humans could withstand.
After half a stick of incense time, Sun Xiaokong stopped his body and breathed heavily.
"After all, has it come to this? It's unwilling to accept! Having marched forward with high spirits and strong momentum, will it stop here?"
That old man's hair was disheveled at this moment, and he spoke frantically: "You hit him! Aren't you boundless in potential? Hit him!"
As he spoke, one foot kicked Sun Xiaokong flying!
Boom!
Sun Xiao's body fell to the ground, motionless and lying there, it really didn't have any strength left. Just now it had completely exploded with all its might, all its physical energy was exhausted, exceeding its load.
"Fine, I'll knock you out first and then deal with you slowly. We have a long time ahead of us, I still have decades to live, and I won't believe that I can't pry the secrets of cultivation from your mouth!"
He rushed towards Sun Xiao Kong, ready to deliver the final blow.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared and blocked Sun Xiaokong's path.
Suddenly, a man came out of nowhere, greatly exceeding the expectations of the indigenous old man. However, no matter who he was, don't think about blocking himself! So, he punched the person who blocked his way with the fist that was originally meant for Sun Xiao Kong!
Boom!
The old aboriginal man's son flew up into the air, his eyes wide with incredulity, unable to believe this was really happening.
He steadied himself and landed safely on the ground, looking at the dark-skinned giant in front of him with narrowed eyes.
Following that, Sun Xiao Kong also sensed this scene. Seeing this dark and robust man, his heart was also shocked for a moment, then he was puzzled again. What shocked him was the opponent's strength, actually one punch sent this person who broke through the extreme limits flying away.
It's puzzling why they would want to save me...
"I'm really sorry, I've always been the kind of person who likes to ruin other people's good things." Jiang Xiaoyu smiled playfully.
