God of Pets

Chapter 421 The Golden Man

When Chen Guan and his group arrived at the house, they, like Hu Quan, first knocked on the door. After no one answered, they pushed the door open and looked inside.

Seeing the altar and coffin inside, neither Chen Guan nor Xiu Jieming were surprised. They both assumed that the evil spirit was inside the coffin and the memorial tablet was a place to worship the evil spirit.

The memorial tablet was covered with a red cloth, so the name of the evil spirit worshipped on it could not be seen.

"You evil spirit, I'll give you a chance to explain, or come out and die," Xiu Jieming said coldly, looking at the coffin.

Chen glanced at Xiu Jieming, his expression somewhat indescribable.

The Xiu Jieming he remembered wasn't like this at all. How come Xiu Jieming is acting like a chivalrous knight-errant now? This doesn't match his identity at all.

"Could it be that he was influenced by a secret consciousness or that someone usurped his place?" Chen Guan thought to himself. It was almost impossible to brainwash or invade the consciousness of someone as determined as Xiu Jieming.

Click!Click!
As Chen Guan was thinking, the coffin lid suddenly moved on its own. After shifting a couple of times, the entire coffin lid suddenly popped open and fell to the side, revealing a golden figure standing upright inside.

Chen Guan and Xiu Jieming both saw it; it was a golden man, seemingly sculpted entirely from gold, yet his body could move like flesh and blood, making it incredibly bizarre.

"As expected, the evil spirit is the secret spirit," Chen Guan thought to himself.

"Do you have anything to say?" Xiu Jieming asked, looking at the golden man.

"Die!" The golden man uttered only one word before his body suddenly burst out of the coffin, throwing a punch at Xiu Jieming's face with incredible speed.

Xiu Jieming also threw a punch, his fist seemingly imbued with the power of a mountain.

The peerless secret technique, the Mountain-Shaking Divine Fist, can shatter mountains with a single punch.

boom!
As their fists collided, a scene that surprised Chen Guan unfolded.

Despite Xiu Jieming's strength, he was actually sent flying by a single punch from the golden man, crashing through the stone wall and creating a large hole before landing outside.

Chen Guan was greatly alarmed and quickly retreated to avoid being attacked by the golden man.

The moment Chen Guan retreated, the golden man rushed forward, still as fast as ever, even faster than Chen Guan's One-Step.

Fu Tianji brandished his black iron mace and purple gold mace, and stood in front of Chen Guan without hesitation.

As Chen Guan exited the gate, the black iron mace and the purple gold melon hammer collided with the golden man's fist.

Chen Guan knew the power of the Xuan Tie Mace and the Zi Jin Gua Hammer; they were divine artifacts that could cause injury upon contact or touch, unlike ordinary weapons.

The golden man shouldn't have gained any advantage by directly confronting the two divine artifacts with his fists.

But the next second, Chen Guan saw Fu Tianji's body fly backward and land outside the house. His feet sank directly into the ground, breaking several pieces of the stone floor. He took several steps back before regaining his balance.

"This golden man's spirit is so powerful?" Chen Guan was shocked.

Fu Tianji and Xiu Jieming are both at the pinnacle of the Three Awakenings, yet the golden man's single strike left them in such a sorry state, which is truly unbelievable.

But judging from the state of that golden man, he should undoubtedly be at the third awakening stage. Since they are both at the third awakening stage, it's impossible for Fu Tianji and Xiu Jieming to be suppressed like this.

Before Chen Guan could think, the golden man had already thrown a punch at him.

A simple punch, seemingly without much mystery.

Without hesitation, Chen Guan used the Blood Explosion Divine Skill, his body enveloped in blood mist. He also unleashed the Evening Step and used the Frosty Cotton Hand.

The golden man's punch seemed ordinary, but Chen Guan, using the One Night Step and martial arts rhythm, couldn't dodge it and had to forcefully exchange a blow with him.

As their fists clashed, Chen Guan sensed something was wrong. The energy in his palm surged towards the golden man's fist like a raging river. Normally, it would be a good thing if the Frostbite Hand could penetrate the opponent's body, but in this situation, it wasn't the Frostbite Hand that penetrated, but rather the golden man that drew it in.

Not only the power of the Frosty Hand, but even the blood mist that the Golden Man's fist touched was drawn away by him.

Even the level 60 Blood Explosion Divine Skill couldn't withstand the Golden Man's fist; a hole was ripped out of his blood energy layer.

Chen Guan's body was also sent flying backward, his entire arm was numb, and his palm felt like it had been cracked.

Even the Heavenly Tyrant Body, the last line of defense, couldn't withstand it. Wherever the golden fist touched, the vital energy instantly vanished, rendering it largely ineffective.

Fortunately, Chen Guan had a large amount of vital energy; otherwise, this one blow would have drained his energy completely.

Fortunately, because of the abundance of vital energy, the Heavenly Overlord Body did not completely fail; otherwise, the situation would be far more complex than just numbness in the arm.

Chen Guan then realized why Fu Tianji and Xiu Jieming couldn't withstand the golden man's punches; this guy could actually drain people's vital energy.

Without uttering a word, Xiu Jieming leaped to his feet, unleashing a burst of energy that seemed to descend upon him like a demon god. He slapped out with his large hand, unleashing yet another secret ultimate move from the Supreme Demon Lord who could fight against heaven and earth.

He has already used it once, so logically he shouldn't be able to use it again anytime soon.

Bang bang! Bang bang!
Xiu Jieming's secret ultimate move was actually blasted away by the golden man's punch.

Xiu Jieming, however, was not surprised or flustered. Instead, he unleashed one powerful move after another, each containing the secret techniques of the supreme demon lord who could fight against heaven and earth.

Chen Guan was both surprised and delighted, and immediately understood.

Xiu Jieming's talent is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people; Yang Huai and Hu Quan can only rely on the secret techniques hidden within those secret knowledge.

Xiu Jieming, however, could transform the hidden power of those secret knowledge into his own supreme demon lord power that could fight against heaven and earth. In this respect alone, he was many times stronger than Yang Huai and Hu Quan.

The golden man swung his fists, actually shattering Xiu Jieming's hidden power one by one, or rather, drawing its energy into his own body.

Chen Guan knew that this was exactly Xiu Jieming's goal; the Golden Man was, in the end, just a third-level awakening spirit.

As he continues to draw away the hidden power, his body will soon be unable to withstand the terrifying energy, and he may be directly burst by the energy.

Xiu Jieming's body was able to withstand so much hidden power because that hidden power did not spread within his identity but was controlled by his secret consciousness.

It's like eating many capsules filled with deadly poison. As long as the capsules don't break, no matter how potent the poison is, it won't affect your body.

The golden man, however, directly drew a large amount of vital energy into his body. How could his body possibly withstand such a terrifying amount of vital energy?

Chen Guan couldn't help but admire Xiu Jieming's quick thinking and extremely rich combat experience.

Upon encountering this bizarre ability, they instantly devised a way to deal with it.

However, as Xiu Jieming unleashed wave after wave of his hidden power, both of their expressions changed.

The golden man's body was like a bottomless abyss; no matter how much of Xiu Jieming's secret power was drawn away, it remained completely unchanged.

Anyway, the golden man's power was getting stronger and stronger. With his last punch, he not only sucked away the secret power that Xiu Jieming had unleashed, but also sent Xiu Jieming flying.

While suspended in mid-air, Xiu Jieming's vital energy surged wildly, and his body underwent a drastic change, transforming into a bizarre state.

He once again entered a state of returning to his original nature, releasing all his vital energy, which carried away impurities from his body, making his physical body pure and powerful.
