High Martial Arts 2077: I Rely on Beast Taming to Cultivate While Lying Down

Chapter 115 Zhang Yan - Mountain-Splitting Fist Lv5! He's just a student!

The elite-level peak faceless demon peeked half its body out of the shadows, its face already pointed at Su Chen's back.

A dark purple halo surged wildly beneath the membrane, its brightness far exceeding that of its companions!

Wang Yichuan did not hesitate.

With his left hand forming a hand seal, the Thunder Spirit Orb suddenly expanded by one size.

A bolt of golden lightning as thick as a thigh shot out from his palm, traveled seven meters, and struck the side of the second faceless demon precisely.

Zi—

Lightning struck the pillar, and inside the metal-concrete interior, the steel reinforcement became a perfect conductor.

The electric current leaped wildly across the surface of the pillar, bouncing off onto the faceless demon's carapace.

The elite-level peak faceless demon let out a sharp screech.

The dark purple halo on its face instantly became disordered.

The out-of-control faceless demonic light exploded beneath the membrane, and dark purple energy shot out from all parts of its face, shattering its own carapace and causing it to fall from the pillar and crash heavily to the ground.

This is what the Faceless Demon fears most... energy backlash!

The skill "Faceless Magic Light" directly detonates the magic core within the body, forming a diffuse energy field.

This process requires psychic sorting to be completed under the skin of the face. If the sorting is interfered with by external psychic energy, the energy will explode inside the body.

Wang Yichuan saw the faceless demon twitch twice on the ground, and dark gray viscous fluid oozed from the crack in its carapace, indicating that it had suffered minor injuries.

But he's not dead yet!

The injured faceless demon stared at Wang Yichuan with its featureless face, then slowly got up from the ground.

All the barbs on its body stood up, the muscles under its carapace expanded rapidly, and its body size increased dramatically.

fury!

It no longer cares about Su Chen.

All it wants now is to tear this electrifying dog to shreds!

The faceless demon landed on all fours, its hind legs gathering power like a toad's, before it suddenly launched itself forward.

"Bang--!"

'

But the next moment, a silver-white figure suddenly crashed into it.

The tip of the spear pierced the faceless demon's cheek, sending sparks flying.

The faceless demon at the peak of the elite level was knocked three meters off course by this enormous force.

It turned its head, its faceless face turned towards the human girl who dared to attack it!

Zhang Yan gripped the spear with both hands, the tip of which drew a white line on the ground.

She grinned and said, "Ugly freak, what are you looking at?"

The faceless demon's skin trembled slightly.

The next second, it pushed off the ground with both feet, its body exploded into a gray line, and its fist, wrapped in dark purple energy, slammed straight towards Zhang Yan's face.

Zhang Yan did not dodge.

He planted his spear in the ground and clenched his fist to meet the attack.

"Let's test our strength! Find me!"

"boom!!!"

Fist to fist!

Zhang Yan was so shocked that she rolled backward.

His back slammed into the remaining concrete, sending gravel to the ground and dust billowing up.

She coughed, her right hand trembling violently.

But the faceless demon over there wasn't very good-looking either.

It shook its arms.

pain!

A human at the Opening Acupoints Realm could actually paralyze its exoskeleton with a punch.

It "looked" at Zhang Yan with its faceless face.

Zhang Yan climbed out of the rubble, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and smiled even more brightly.

"Heh, now you know how powerful this young lady is, right?"

The faceless demon's skin suddenly tightened.

Its size increased again, and dark purple energy surged around it.

The next moment, it charged again, its fist carrying more than twice the spiritual energy of before.

Zhang Yan steadied herself, clenched her fists, and prepared to launch another attack.

Then the faceless demon vanished in mid-air.

No! It didn't disappear!

It's an afterimage!

It instantly changed position, circling around to Zhang Yan's side and behind her. The two were extremely close; its fist was already pressed against the energy protection device on Zhang Yan's waist.

It was too fast! So fast that Zhang Yan's fist was only halfway through its swing.

"boom""

The blue light membrane of the energy protector suddenly lit up. The impact force penetrated the protective energy membrane and blasted Zhang Yan away.

She tumbled three times in the air before crashing heavily into the supporting pillar.

It felt like all my internal organs had been punched out of place.

The Faceless Demon, having gained power, was relentless.

It landed on all fours, like a cheetah launching itself again.

A dark red fireball landed precisely between it and Zhang Yan, and the exploding flames forced it to stop in its tracks.

Jiang Yunxin appeared at the top of the second-floor staircase, holding a ball of flame in each hand, with fire elements surging wildly around her.

Humans at the third realm of acupoint opening are theoretically on the same level as this faceless demon.

However, at this stage, humans can already use cultivation techniques and spiritual arts to kill enemies of higher levels.

Moreover, Jiang Yunxin's combat strength far exceeds that of others of the same level.

The faceless demon felt the pressure and dared not approach easily.

Zhang Yan leaned against a pillar and stood up, coughing twice. There was a metallic taste in her mouth, and her ribs ached slightly, but the bones were probably not broken.

She quickly took out an emergency pill and put it in her mouth. The pill instantly turned into a warm medicinal power, which rubbed the painful area along her meridians.

At the same time, a gentle, cool spiritual energy flowed into her body.

It's Lin Xiyue!

She stood ten meters away, pale blue water elemental energy flowing between her five fingers.

Water-based spiritual energy formed a light blue film at the wound, quickly reducing swelling and pain, and relieving muscle fatigue.

Zhang Yan took a deep breath and felt the pain lessen considerably.

"Thank you, Sister Xiyue~"

She gripped the spear tightly again, her gaze fixed on the faceless demon, her eyes showing no fear.

Su Chen witnessed the entire process of Zhang Yan's injury.

The first elite-level high-ranking Faceless Demon seized this opening and suddenly turned its face toward Su Chen.

A dark purple halo surged wildly beneath the membrane... then suddenly exploded.

A sharp, explosive sound!

It is not an energy attack.

It was a piercing scream that directly impacted the soul!

Su Chen felt as if his consciousness had been pierced by a steel needle.

My vision went black, my eardrums throbbed with pain, and the flow of spiritual energy within my body instantly went into chaos.

The Faceless Demon's shriek is an extremely rare soul attack that does not require weapon contact or a psionic shield; it attacks the divine sea directly.

"Awooo—!"

Xiao Zi's thunderous roar exploded from the side.

The two sound waves collided in the air and canceled each other out.

Su Chen's consciousness suddenly returned.

Then he saw... the Faceless Demon's fist!

Dark purple energy enveloped the entire fist, which had already slammed into the fist in front of him.

Su Chen clenched his right fist.

At the same time, I felt something warm and cold coating my fist... water-based psionic energy!

A thin, pale blue film covered his fist.

Lin Xiyue!

"boom--!"

Fists clashing.

The water elemental energy enveloped Su Chen's fist, and at the point of impact, it suddenly contracted inward, absorbing some of the impact force.

Then it suddenly vibrated outwards, releasing the absorbed energy along with Su Chen's force.

Water spirits can counteract shocks!

Su Chen's punch combined with the water elemental energy's counter-force equaled an extraordinary punch. The Faceless Demon was blasted backward by this force, crashing into a pillar five meters away. Its carapace shattered, and it staggered a few steps before regaining its footing.

Su Chen didn't waste any words.

He slung the Beast Hunter Type 3 submachine gun to his waist, pulled it out, and loaded it with level 3 ammo!

"Da da da da da da"

Sparks flew from the muzzle of the gun.

Bullets rained down on the Faceless Demon at extremely close range.

The penetrating power of a level 3 bullet is considerable; the bullet tears through the armor and embeds itself densely into the flesh.

The faceless demon let out a sharp screech, and dark gray blood splattered all over the ground.

It knelt on the ground, its carapace riddled with bullet holes, from which dark gray slime gushed.

His limbs were twitching, but he was still trying to stand up.

Su Chen raised his gun, ready to fire another burst...

A figure appeared from the side, moving as fast as the wind, even faster than him!

Zhang Yan rushed up.

Her right fist was wrapped in a terrifying force.

Mountain-Splitting Fist!

As she threw her punch, the force left an arc-shaped afterimage in mid-air.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

"If you've got the guts, fight me head-on! Don't try to play dirty tricks on me!"

"boom--!"

The fist slammed into the faceless demon's featureless face.

The membrane bursts.

The force penetrated the skull and entered the cranium.

The faceless demon's head exploded with a bang from that punch!

It was thrown back, crashing into the side of the pillar, its body sliding down the surface. Its limbs twitched twice, then it remained completely still.

Two notification sounds, audible only to Su Chen, rang in his mind.

[Humanoid Pet - Zhang Yan: Mountain-Splitting Fist | v4→lv5]

Task Two: 1000kg Strength Task objective: Assist Zhang Yan in achieving a punching strength of 1000kg.

Progress: 928 → 959/1000

Rewards: Pet Energy x200, Tiger Bone Power Pill x5, Skill Stone: Overlord Fist Technique

Zhang Yan shook the sticky liquid off her fist, turned around, smiled at Lin Xiyue first, and then her gaze fell on Su Chen.

Her face wore a smile of pure joy from winning.

Su Chen also smiled.

The Mountain-Opening Fist has broken through!

959kg!

We're just one step away from the 1000kg target. At this rate, Mission Two should be a sure thing.

Overlord Fist Technique!!!

We're waiting!

Then... his gaze went past Zhang Yan's shoulder.

The smile froze on her face.

There was nothing there.

But a panel appeared in Su Chen's field of vision.

Alien Demon (Status: Undergoing baptism by the power of the abyss)

Status: Contractable; Strength Rank: Fourth Realm - High-Rank Warrior; Racial Potential: Fifth Realm - Leader; Attribute: Void/Abyss; Growth Potential: 6.5

skill:

Void Walking Lv5...

High-level Warrior General!

Iv5 walking in the void!

"Small"

Before he could finish speaking, Su Chen realized that the panel had bypassed Zhang Yan...

Su Chen's expression changed drastically.

#!

They're coming for me!

Zhang Yan reacted extremely quickly.

Seeing the change in Su Chen's expression, her face changed as well, and she swept her spear behind her.

Sweep!

It hit nothing; the tip of the gun pierced through the air.

Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment.

Two thoughts flashed through my mind in an instant.

First, Su Chen may have noticed something was wrong.

Secondly, that bastard Su Chen was thinking about messing with me even during the fight.

But just as she turned around...

What she saw was... a gigantic, alien demon! It appeared where Su Chen was.

Her heart sank to the bottom.

It is entirely possible for the alien demon to break through the energy shield.

Even... the energy guardian might not be able to react to this teleportation ability!

"don't want!!!"

The next second, the scythe slashed towards Su Chen.

Su Chen raised his longsword to block.

Click~

The blade broke in two!

The blade of the sickle slid across the broken weapon and fell straight toward his chest.

The energy protector's light membrane was instantly fully extended.

He naturally didn't try to withstand it!

Shadowless Step, Drive!

His feet left two afterimages on the ground, and his body pulled back half a step.

It was this half-step that slightly mitigated the momentum of the sickle's strike.

The energy shield's light membrane deflected the scythe by an inch, the blade grazing his clothes as it slashed down.

boom!

The immense force sent Su Chen flying, his back slamming into half of the wall behind him and shattering it.

Smoke and dust filled the air.

Su Chen coughed on the ground, feeling a dull pain in his chest, but his bones weren't broken.

Several light blue chains swept past him and tightly wrapped around the alien demon's body.

Lin Xiyue stood behind, her hands forming a complex hand seal. A phantom of a spirit appeared behind her, pouring all the water elemental energy into the chains.

Tighten the chains!

But it only lasted for less than a second.

The alien demon swung its arms and slashed wildly with its scythes, cutting the azure chains into several pieces.

Not far away.

A dark red fireball, twice the size of the previous one, condensed in Liu Yue's palm.

Liu Yue was only at the mid-stage of the Qi Refining Realm, a small level lower than this alien demon.

But... nothing can withstand destructive spiritual magic!

"boom--!"

The fireball roared away.

At the same time, Yang Xin had already placed her single-shot sniper rifle on her shoulder.

The fourth-level kinetic energy armor-piercing round was loaded, and the muzzle was aimed at the back of the alien demon's head.

"Bang bang bang—!"

Three shots, all hit.

The penetration power of the level 4 bullet far exceeds that of the level 3 bullet; the bullet head penetrated the gap in the shell of the alien demon's head.

It let out a painful hiss and swung its scythe backward.

Not tested!

The fireball is coming!

The alien demon then vanished into the void rift just before the fireball landed.

"Boom!"

The fireball's position was empty.

Seeing this, Liu Song clenched his fists.

The most terrifying thing about the alien monster is this.

It disappears immediately after entering the camel, and you never know where it will reappear from in the next second.

How to prevent it?

Su Chen stared intently at the line of text on the panel that was flashing.

Left, right, accelerate, take off, without stopping for a moment!

"Xi Song, watch out!"

The moment the first word was uttered, Lin Xisong understood its meaning.

A light blue barrier suddenly opened up from her body, enveloping her entirely.

The barrier had barely risen for half a second when the scythe struck it.

The blue light curtain trembled slightly, and a crack appeared in the psionic ripples on its surface.

The barrier held for only a moment before it was breached!

But even this short moment is enough.

Lin Xisong used his strength to dodge.

He tapped the ground with his toes and retreated several body lengths.

She quickly stopped, slightly out of breath, but her eyes were calm as still water.

In the distance, a ghostly light gleamed from the deep-set eye sockets of the alien demon.

It turned its head to look at Su Chen.

It suddenly understood.

This test can see through self-inflicted techniques!

They cannot be kept.

Its figure disappeared again.

In Su Chen's field of vision...

Left, right, left, right...

It darts left and right, constantly closing in!

It disappeared from the back panel.

No, it didn't disappear! It went upwards!

It jumped directly above Su Chen and attached itself to the ceiling.

The sickle was retracted, and the blade flicked out again.

Dive...

Su Chen did not look up.

He quickly pulled out two Super Explosive Type II grenades from his waist, pulled the pins, and tossed them toward the ceiling.

At the same time, he pushed off with his feet and rolled backward.

The alien demon's scythe cleaved into the spot where he had just been standing, the blade sinking half a foot into the floorboards.

The grenade was fired from behind, landing on either side of its body.

"boom--!"

Flames engulfed its back.

The alien monster let out an unprecedentedly sharp screech. Large pieces of its carapace were shattered, revealing dark gray flesh inside, still coated with burning chemical fuel.

Su Chen drew his gun with a backhand motion, and a burst of level 3 bullets filled the wound.

The bullet pierced the unprotected flesh, splattering a patch of grayish slime.

Liu Song, the city hunter who came to assist, was stunned.

How did he detect it? Did he anticipate it? He clearly didn't look up just now.

Could it be perception?

Even among the experts in the Spirit Martial Realm, only those who have tempered their souls to the extreme can reliably track the movements of the alien demon in intense close combat!

And he...

He's just a student!
