Shushan: Extinction

Chapter 187 The Power of Martial Arts
Sure enough, Rong Jian quickly sent a message to Gong Tianwu using his soul:
"If my judgment is correct, Yuan Hong should use the method of descending directly to the lower world to deal with you. The carrier of his descent is Yuan Ming's physical body, and at the same time, he will burn Yuan Ming's soul as firewood!"

"So, if he dies in your hands now, Yuan Ming can at least keep his soul. If he's lucky, he can even become a terrestrial immortal. At worst, he can still linger for another ten years."

"But if Yuan Hong descends upon us, the only outcome would be death, so this guy is just choosing the lesser of two evils at this moment."

Gong Tianwu nodded slightly after hearing this:
"It's exactly what I guessed."

Rong Jian continued:
"If Yuan Ming's body is damaged too badly before he descends, then he will not be able to bear Yuan Hong's divine consciousness. In this case, Yuan Hong may give up his intention to descend directly."

After hearing this, Gong Tianwu's eyes immediately became sharp. He waved his hand violently towards Yuan Ming, and several sharp ice blades were released.

Yuan Ming took the initiative to greet him again, but when he was halfway there, his whole body suddenly shook strangely, and his bones and joints made a horrible "crackling" sound, as densely packed as frying beans.

This sounds creepy, as if all the bones in the body are breaking.

Yuan Ming let out a shrill and terrifying scream:

"Do not!!!!"

The scream suddenly stopped, and was replaced by a completely distorted expression, revealing an expression of cruelty, satisfaction, and excitement.

At the same time, it can be seen that Yuan Ming's left eye has completely turned white, showing a strange pale color, while his right eye is spinning violently, with bloodshot eyes and full of fear.

Then Yuan Ming's head was still trying to stretch out to meet the ice blade, but his left hand had already hit his left cheek hard.

This punch can be said to be an all-out effort. One can even hear the sound of facial bones breaking, and blood splattered from the side.

The huge power contained in the fist caused Yuan Ming's head to tilt rapidly, so that most of the ice blades missed.

As a result, only an ice blade passed by the cheek, leaving a deep wound and the bright red flesh rolled up on both sides, which looked extremely tragic.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Ming's entire body began to twist, and he could feel that there were clearly two different wills in this body fighting for dominance.

His right hand began to frantically try to hurt himself, but his left hand was trying its best to stop him!

Gong Tianwu also began to attack with all his strength at this time, trying to launch a fatal blow to Yuan Ming, but it was obvious that Yuan Ming's main consciousness was rapidly declining and fading. The result of Gong Tianwu's hurried attack was that in the end he only cut off the little toe on Yuan Ming's left foot.

Then, Yuan Ming in front of him suddenly let out a strange cry, and with his body as the core, he directly emitted an eighteen-level storm. The huge air wave blew Gong Tianwu away.

At this time, it can be seen that Yuan Ming's exposed skin began to show obvious signs of wriggling and unevenness, and it seemed as if there were a large number of living things wriggling horribly inside this skin.

Then, Yuan Ming looked at Gong Tianwu, showing a twisted and weird smile, and said in a completely different and strange sharp tone:

"Ah, ah, ah!! Hahahaha, I'm finally back to my hometown."

Then he raised his head and took a deep breath:

"I really miss the sweet air of my hometown."

Gong Tianwu took two steps back at this time and said solemnly:

"Yuan Hong?"

After hearing this, Yuan Ming sighed:
"Oh, no one has called me by this name for a long time. It's such a nostalgic name. Although the current name of General of the Palace is also good, I prefer to be called Saint Yuan!!"

Having said that, the guy suddenly became excited, and then he aimed his claws at Gong Tianwu and scratched him in the face.

Monsters like this are actually somewhat taboo about their animal origins. They try to be as human as possible in their speech and behavior, removing the characteristics and markings of wild beasts.

But its sudden grab at this moment looks very similar to the leaping and jumping of a monkey when attacking, or it can be described by another four words, that is, returning to nature.

Facing this claw, Gong Tianwu actually had some predictions.

But just like what Yuan Hong said before, as long as you successfully break through that limit, it will be useless even if your routine is seen through and you can't react to keep up.

In the end, Gong Tianwu continuously condensed three ice shields on his chest and finally blocked the attack of the old monster Yuan Hong. However, how could it be so easy to offset the attack of a demon ancestor-level powerhouse like Yuan Hong?
Just when Gong Tianwu thought he had successfully blocked the attack, two strange noises suddenly came from the body of the enemy in front of him!
It was Yuan Hong who directly detonated the three magic weapons on Yuan Ming, then he let out a strange laugh and stretched out his claws to draw a circle in the air.

After this circle was drawn, one could immediately feel that it had formed a terrifying vortex, and then absorbed all the surrounding power into it, which of course also included the huge power that erupted after the two magic weapons were destroyed.

Immediately afterwards, there was a flash of light in the vortex, followed by three fragments of magic weapon shooting out at incredible speed, piercing Gong Tianwu's body.

A stream of blood spurted out of Gong Tianwu's mouth and he flew backwards. He fell more than ten meters in the air before falling heavily to the ground. He rolled seven or eight times before lying on the ground, looking like he was neither alive nor alive.

Yuan Hong's move was truly earth-shattering, and he severely injured Gong Tianwu! !
Of course, such a move is difficult to replicate, because it requires both skills and, more importantly, billions of useless magic weapons.

The three magic weapons that were detonated were the family fortune that Yuan Ming had accumulated over five hundred years of hard work and through life and death. They were completely blown up by his ancestor in just one second.

If this guy were still alive, I'm sure he would be so heartbroken that he would grit his teeth.

Looking at Gong Tianwu lying in the distance, Yuan Hong let out a hoarse laugh:
"Hurry up and get up. I'm very measured in my attack. This Demon Soul Lock won't kill you. It will just injure your Que Yin, Fu Shi, and Shuang Guang orifices, which will make it impossible for you to use any of your magical powers."

Gong Tianwu stood up with some difficulty. Three faint purple lights were seen shining on his body, located on his right chest, lower abdomen, and left thigh.

The three balls of purple light flashed from time to time, as if they were echoing each other. While flashing, an illusion of a unique ancient lock appeared behind him, and then gradually disappeared.

This should be the Demon Spirit Lock that Yuan Hong mentioned, a unique method that can seal magical powers.

Then Yuan Hong's left eye suddenly shot out a unique golden light, which fell directly on Gong Tianwu. However, Gong Tianwu did not react after being illuminated by the golden light. Instead, Yuan Hong's left eye burst with a "pop" sound the next second, leaving a deep bloody hole on his cheek.

A large amount of dirty blood quickly flowed down his cheeks from his eye sockets, but Yuan Hong was completely unaware. After all, this was Yuan Ming's body, and it would soon collapse under the influence of his coming, so he could do whatever he wanted to him.

Then I heard Yuan Hong laugh even more strangely:
"Excellent, truly excellent. I originally thought that the Heavenly Dragon Pearl in your body would be a big trouble, but I didn't expect that you have already squeezed out all its essence and blood. That saves me a lot of trouble."

"Without magical powers and the power from the demon clan, what strength do you have left to resist? You are just a piece of meat on the chopping board."

Gong Tianwu coughed and wiped away the blood on his lips, then smiled bitterly:
"How can I kill Xue Mingchuan from Emei if I don't use the power of the Heavenly Dragon Pearl? Who is the Majesty you are talking about?"

Yuan Hong smiled and said:
"How can your Majesty's name be called casually? You will know when you see yourself."

Gong Tianwu sighed and said:
"You are so tight-lipped that not a single leak can escape your lips. Then your life is of no value."

When Yuan Hong heard Gong Tianwu's words, his tone suddenly changed and he frowned immediately. The only eye he had left immediately looked over suspiciously.

But he saw that the place where Gong Tianwu had been standing before suddenly exploded. This explosion was actually caused by his foot. This shows how powerful Gong Tianwu's foot was!

What's even more bizarre is that Gong Tianwu has completely disappeared at this moment! ?
Of course, an old hand like Yuan Hong immediately realized that it was not that Gong Tianwu disappeared, but that he suddenly burst out with an astonishing speed and actually entered directly into his own blind spot of vision, so this effect occurred.

This is also very targeted at one's own shortcoming of being blind to one thing!

So, Yuan Hong immediately let out a strange cry, and his left paw poked and poked in the air, flashing - but in fact it was just a feint, a bait.

The real killing move lies in the magic talisman quietly drawn with the left foot!
But at this time, Gong Tianwu had suddenly appeared and punched him.

Yuan Hong’s prediction was correct. He even accurately judged Gong Tianwu’s attack route. However, this demon ancestor also underestimated Gong Tianwu’s speed and strength at this time.

This caused its defense to be a step slower, and it was hit directly in the right chest.

Suddenly, a very crisp "crack" sound of fracture was heard in the air. The position where Yuan Hong was punched seemed to be fine, but his back suddenly bulged out three inches, and an obvious fist mark was formed.

The violent force spread violently at the location of the fist, causing continuous destructive damage. The crackling sound was like a grand fireworks display inside Yuan Hong's body.

Yuan Hong's whole body trembled, but fortunately the talisman drawn with his left foot had been successfully completed at this time. Suddenly, his figure disappeared from the spot, and only a piece of monkey hair fell down.

Gong Tianwu stood in place, raised his head slightly, and retracted his fist little by little.

At this moment, he had a kind of profound and lofty temperament, and he also carried an awe-inspiring and inviolable majesty.

Then Gong Tianwu didn't even look back. He just stretched out his hand and made a fist. A stone automatically flew into his palm, and then he threw it casually.

There was a sudden "bang" sound from about thirty meters away, and Yuan Hong fell out directly from the void. He looked bloody, dirty and in a very embarrassed state. It was obvious that he was hit directly by the stone.

When Yuan Hong let out a strange cry and was about to launch a counterattack again, he found that Gong Tianwu had disappeared from his sight again. With his experience, he immediately rolled on the ground and chose to retreat quickly.

But at this time, two explosions were heard from the ground next to him, which were the muffled sounds coming from Gong Tianwu stepping through the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Gong Tianwu appeared from Yuan Hong's blind spot and kicked him sideways.

It was also thanks to the fact that Yuan Hong was controlling Yuan Ming's demon body at this time, whose strength and speed were far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators. However, after trying his best to dodge Gong Tianwu's kick, he was still half a beat slow and was kicked.

Suddenly, one could see Yuan Hong rolling on the ground for several times, and then his left foot curled up strangely, obviously having been broken by a kick.

"You...you actually even calculated this?"

Yuan Hong raised his eyes in surprise and said:

It turned out that Yuan Hong himself knew it well, and he had a chance to avoid Gong Tianwu's sudden attack.

But just as he was exerting force to turn around and dodge, he suddenly felt his feet go weak, and the force he should have exerted was missing a little.

It was this slight force that made Yuan Hong's final dodge fail, and he missed avoiding Gong Tianwu's attack by a hair's breadth.

After the dust settled, Yuan Hong discovered that the reason why he had lost strength and failed to dodge was that his little toe on his left foot was broken! !

There is no doubt that after Yuan Hong occupied Yuan Ming's body, he must have blocked his sense of pain. Otherwise, for Yuan Hong, who often had to hurt himself to fight his enemies, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
Therefore, Yuan Hong had overlooked this point in his previous dodge. The influence of a little toe on the pedaling force can be said to be not that great. However, Gong Tianwu, as the enemy, noticed this and successfully used it.

Such an extreme grasp of the battlefield situation, the knowledge of the surrounding environment as if he was aware of every detail, and the skill of exerting force so precise that not a single extra effort was needed, immediately made the knowledgeable Yuan Hong think of something.

He couldn't help but take a breath and said:

"You have reached the realm of subtlety? You have even practiced martial arts and reached an extremely high level? How is this possible?"

At this time, Gong Tianwu appeared behind him like a ghost and hit Yuan Hong on the back of the head with a forward chopping palm.

The huge power hidden inside instantly caused the remaining eyeball to explode completely, and the cervical vertebrae in the head were completely broken in an instant, and the whole body was smashed away.

At this time, Gong Tianwu put away his fist, a faint smile appeared on his face and said:

"Want to know why? Go ask your Majesty."
