The weakest martial artist? One punch and he's leveled up a whole realm!

Ye Xiao did not intend to fight him.

But judging from this situation...

The Frost Giant King harbored a great deal of hatred towards him.

Ye Xiao was dragged down by the nameless patriarch from back then.

However, Ye Xiao did not blame the nameless patriarch in any way.

On the contrary, he was grateful to the nameless patriarch.

After all, most of his current power comes from the inheritance of the nameless patriarch.

"Since you want to fight me, then I'll play along!"

Ye Xiao raised his fist, and golden patterns spread from his arm to his entire body.

You have no choice.

The Frost Giant King raised his battle axe.

With a loud bang!

The battle axe cleaved down with lightning speed.

The other party didn't play any tricks with Ye Xiao; after saying a few words, they immediately took action with their axe!

When the axe came down, Ye Xiao had no time to dodge and could only block it with his arms.

"clang--!"

The golden fist intent collided with the blue cold flames, creating a shockwave.

The ice beneath his feet shattered, and Ye Xiao's feet sank into it, his knees bearing the force of a thousand tons.

His arm was numb, his thumb and forefinger split open, and the blood droplets froze into red ice crystals.

Fortunately, there is the protection of the [Shattered Void Wrist] and the damage reduction effect of the [Undying Heart Armor].

The battle axe from the Frost Giant King landed on the [Shattered Wrist], mitigating the vast majority of the damage.

Moreover, Ye Xiao activated his special ability at the crucial moment.

"Skin of copper and bones of iron!"

This caused his defense to surge by 400% in a short period of time!

And it lasts for up to 60 seconds!

Although Ye Xiao managed to withstand the axe blow from the Frost Giant King.

However, you should know that the opponent's realm is as high as the ninth level!

Under the suppression of the realm, the Frost Giant King's strength appeared exceptionally terrifying.

After gritting his teeth and enduring it, Ye Xiao slid backward for more than ten meters.

Two deep furrows were plowed into the frosty ground.

The Frost Giant King gave him no chance to catch his breath.

Taking advantage of its size, it took its second step and instantly advanced several meters.

Immediately afterwards, he swept his battle axe horizontally, accompanied by a whooshing sound that tore through space.

At the critical moment, Ye Xiao ducked to avoid the axe blade, which grazed his scalp and shaved off a few strands of hair.

If he only focuses on defense, he will eventually be worn down by the Frost Giant King!

Ye Xiao did not choose to sit idly by and wait for his death, nor did he choose a passive approach.

Instead, he charged forward and punched the deceased in the knee.

"Bang--!"

The force of the punch penetrated, causing the ghost's body to sway slightly. A cluster of ice crystals exploded at the knee, but quickly reformed.

A new situation has arisen!

Ye Xiao frowned deeply: "My fists have no effect on you?"

The Frost Giant King let out a proud, cold laugh.

"I am but a spirit of the dead; how can your physical attacks possibly have any effect on me?"

Ye Xiao realized things were in trouble.

His punches are powerful, but they only have destructive power when they hit a real object!

The Frost Giant King before them was clearly a spirit being.

To deal with an enemy like this.

Martial arts practitioners are at a disadvantage, while those who cultivate spiritual energy have an advantage.

Because spiritual energy cultivation can damage the soul.

Ye Xiao had no time to think.

He stepped back, creating some distance.

Because the Frost Giant King is a spirit, it can harm Ye Xiao, while Ye Xiao finds it difficult to harm it.

In addition, the Frost Giant King's attacks are extremely powerful and destructive.

If Ye Xiao is not careful, he will suffer a great loss!

However, the Frost Giant King also has weaknesses.

That means its speed isn't very fast.

Because of its large size, its movements are predictable.

This, in turn, gave Ye Xiao a new combat strategy.

Ye Xiao used his agile movements to move around the Frost Giant King, looking for an opening.

They didn't give up and continued the attack.

Several punches landed on its waist, back, and shoulders, but it was like hitting cotton; the force of the punches was absorbed and dispersed by the ice crystal particles.

Unfortunately, physical attacks are ineffective against it.

"Does it really have to be a physical attack?"

"Are there any other options?"

Just then.

The golden light on Ye Xiao's right fist changed!

He suddenly activated a golden light with a chain-like phantom.

"The Fist of Sealing—!"

boom!

This punch concentrated all the sealed fist intent into the right fist, delivering a heavy blow.

Upon hitting the Frost Giant King, the fist's intent transforms into golden chains that bind the target, sealing its movement for 3 seconds.

It reduces its overall status by 30% for 5 seconds.

When facing a monster of the level of the Frost Giant King.

Although Ye Xiao's sealing fist was weakened.

However, it still manages to maintain a good effect.

Simultaneously.

Ye Xiao noticed it immediately.

The Frost Giant King's body has undergone some changes!

"During the sealing period, the enemy's spiritual power completely stagnates, and their cultivation level will temporarily decrease by one rank!"

This moment.

The former took effect, but the latter did not.

The vibrant ice crystals surrounding the Frost Giant King's body suddenly vanished at that moment.

Then the ghastly decayed bones inside were revealed.

However, its realm remains at the ninth level!

Upon seeing this, Ye Xiao's face lit up with surprise.

"So, this Frost Giant King isn't entirely a ghost after all!"

Ye Xiao quickly realized what was happening and understood the situation.

"The soul of the Frost Giant King needs a vessel to contain it!"

"And this vessel is its original skeletal body."

"But the Frost Giant King cleverly concealed his skeletal form."

"It made me think it really was a pure undead entity!"

After Ye Xiao discovered the secret of the Frost Giant King.

Then the time to attack has come!

The sealing fist struck the Frost Giant King in the chest.

Golden chains shot out from the fist, binding the body of the dead soul, the ends of the chains disappearing into the void.

The Frost Giant King's body stiffened abruptly, and his movements became sluggish.

The blue flames dimmed somewhat under the restraint of the chains.

"What is this?" For the first time, unease crept into the voice of the Frost Giant King.

Ye Xiao stared coldly at the Frost Giant King.

As the sealing fist struck, the passive effect of "Sealing Force" was triggered.

【Seal of Power (Passive): Each time you hit an enemy, the sealing intent of your fist will seep into their body, temporarily sealing their meridians or spiritual energy nodes. Each punch reduces the enemy's spiritual energy efficiency by 10%, stacking up to 10 times (reducing it by 100%), lasting 30 seconds. Each punch has a 20% chance to directly interrupt the enemy's current skill. You can draw power from sealed enemies and convert it into the power you need; the amount drawn is equal to the amount of time the enemy's spiritual energy efficiency was reduced.】

The efficiency of the Frost Giant King's internal power circulation has been reduced by 10%.

This power was extracted and transferred to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao's fighting spirit and stamina instantly reached their maximum!

"Your soul is imprisoned here because the martial intent of the Nameless Ancestor has not dissipated."

"I'm not here to kill you, I'm here to let you rest in peace."
