I Can Strengthen Infinitely

Chapter 245 - 183: Talent Awakening II

Buzz!

In just the blink of an eye, the sonic wave swept across everyone’s bodies.

"Ugh!" A Martial Monk from Treasure Bottle Temple instantly spurted blood from his seven orifices, collapsing on the ground with twisted limbs, without even a chance to react before dying.

One by one, the experts fell to the ground, all perishing in an instant.

Lei Gang watched as patches of his skin started peeling off his hands. Before the pain could even relay to his brain, he quietly shattered into pieces on the ground.

Boom!

Under Qin Yuesheng’s command, the Thousand-Handed Buddha Transformation was frantically pounding at the skeletal figures, but the sonic wave still relentlessly crashed into the Soul-Catching Demon and Qin Yuesheng’s six arms.

The six arms vanished in an instant, and at the same time, a significant shrinkage appeared on the Soul-Catching Demon’s body.

The clothes on Qin Yuesheng’s body suddenly shattered, his hair all falling off, leaving only the Celestial Demon inner armor to support him. His skin continued to peel off, with blood droplets scattering like flying fluff, yet under the extraordinary physical attributes, the wounds quickly coagulated and scabbed.

"Ah!" An indescribable pain flooded into his mind in an instant, a pain that continuously broke down and repaired, far more torturous than the momentary death Lei Gang experienced.

Boom!

Suddenly, half of Qin Yuesheng’s body skin exploded completely, blood and flesh a blurry mess, simply ghastly to behold.

Amidst the red and wincing pain, bare white bones appeared.

At this moment, just as Qin Yuesheng was about to faint, a golden light from the sky’s Life Star descended directly onto his body. He immediately felt an immense vitality burst forth within him from seemingly nowhere, visibly healing his wounds.

With this enormous vitality, the gray sonic waves could no longer inflict as much damage on Qin Yuesheng as before.

(Orange) Unyielding Battle Body (When entering a near-death state, vitality +50%, negate damage +40%)

For a moment, Qin Yuesheng remembered his never-before-used orange physical talent.

It wasn’t until today that Qin Yuesheng understood just how powerful this talent was.

Orange talent, truly extraordinary!

"Hmm?" Seeing Qin Yuesheng as if reborn, the massive head hesitated, surprised that someone could withstand its true words.

"Damn it, I’m going to slaughter you today." Qin Yuesheng looked at his naked self, grateful for the Celestial Demon inner armor providing some cover. Filled with anger, he picked up the Celestial Demon Blade and charged toward the massive head.

At this moment, Qin Yuesheng exploded with full speed. As he reached out, the Red Sun Saber, dropped when Gongsun Xiaozhou died, was instantly summoned into his hand.

With both sabers in hand, the talent activated!

Dual-blade style!

Qin Yuesheng leaped high like a soaring bird and unleashed a fierce Mountain-Crushing Tyrant Saber slash.

The two saber auras were dazzling, seemingly tearing through the sky, violently striking down at the massive head.

"Devil!" the massive head roared.

Thirteen black shadows immediately flew out of its mouth to counter Qin Yuesheng’s saber aura.

These thirteen shadows were ghostly and human-like, akin to the Earth Evil Spirit forms Qin Yuesheng had previously dealt with in West Qi Mountain Temple.

Boom!

Under the two saber auras, the shadows shattered consecutively, but a few still struck Qin Yuesheng’s body, passing straight through him, leaving a half-person-long black wound that extended from his chest to his back.

This black wound seemed to contain a corrosive power, preventing healing and accelerating decay. Yet under Qin Yuesheng’s ’Unyielding Battle Body’, the effect was minimized. Although the healing process slowed somewhat, Qin Yuesheng’s body still managed to withstand the force.

Swish!

A strike landed directly on the massive head’s forehead, and Qin Yuesheng made a violent slash, opening a ten-foot-long scar across its face.

A successful hit, Qin Yuesheng naturally chose to press the advantage. As the battle commenced, the power of his orange talent ’Human Immortal Martial Path’ significantly boosted his attributes, dramatically increasing his strength, causing even the massive head to feel some pressure.

This individual is not simple!

...

Outside Treasure Bottle Temple, Lian Baishan barely arrived in time. As he was about to help Master Yang enter the temple, three people suddenly dashed out. Upon seeing Lian Baishan, they did not show any intention to stop, brushing past him.

Both sides were in tacit agreement, opting not to engage.

Lian Baishan could clearly feel the pressure from these three individuals, indicating their strength wasn’t inferior to his own. While he might manage against one, he was certainly not a match for three.

"I didn’t expect Big Head to use the Five-Word Mantra, he intends to exterminate blindly." Forest Demon remarked while running with a massive shattered skull hammer.

"Those people are the backbone of Jiangnan martial arts. If we can wipe them out, it would be good for us. But it’s a pity for Big Head’s years of cultivation, every use of the Five-Word Mantra costs him years of hard practice." replied Forest Demon.

"What’s to fear? For Big Head, time has long become insignificant; a few years of practice is but a blink. He’s no ordinary mortal like us." Wind Demon said meaningfully, patting his chest, "Now with all four fragmented maps gathered, the sword tomb’s secret is within reach. Another Grandmaster path will be added within our sect."

"Do we need to wait for Big Head?"

"No need, once we’re done with those in Treasure Bottle Temple, he’ll find us." Wind Demon replied, and swiftly, the three disappeared into the forest outside Treasure Bottle Temple.

...

Slashing the massive head bit by bit, Qin Yuesheng wielded his blades like the wind, seemingly entering a berserk state.

After using its true words, the massive head found itself at the receiving end of Qin Yuesheng’s onslaught, its skull covered with slash marks, suffering great damage.

"Danger!" As Qin Yuesheng’s dual blades struck again, the massive head grunted, and the previous terrifying gray sonic wave swept out once more.

Qin Yuesheng forcibly resisted with his flesh, his six arms behind him grabbed fiercely, pulling the swords and sabers from dead experts’ hands into his grasp.

Each of the eight arms held a weapon, appearing like a demonic force from beyond the heavens.

"Mountain-Crushing Tyrant Saber!"

Eight saber auras appeared, each with Primordial Qi infused, striking the massive head’s face simultaneously.

The Primordial Qi violently flooded into the massive head, making it howl miserably, as if faced with a nemesis, while flames erupted from its hair.

Swish swish swish swish!

Boosted by the dual-blade style’s speed, Qin Yuesheng struck multiple times in a single breath, smashing the massive head beyond recognition.

Swiftly, Qin Yuesheng abandoned the Red Sun Saber and pressed his hand onto the massive head.

"Disassemble!"

Boom!

In an instant, the massive head disappeared from its original spot, leaving several items on the ground.

[Disassembly successful, obtained ’Yellow Springs Eye x1’ ’Ghost Pill x1’ ’Five-Word Mantra x1’ ’Earth Evil Spirit Crystal Stone x3’]

With the massive head’s demise, Treasure Bottle Temple fell into an overwhelming silence.

Looking back, Qin Yuesheng saw that most had perished to the massive head’s earlier Five-Word Mantra, with only the strongest Master Bao Jing barely surviving using some Buddhist technique to save his life.

Master Bao Jing was seated cross-legged on the ground, a golden Buddha figure enveloping him, shielding him completely.

Thanks to the golden Buddha’s protection, Master Bao Jing narrowly escaped death from the Five-Word Mantra, but he too had fallen unconscious, hanging by a thread.

"Tonight truly is a calamity for Jiangnan." Qin Yuesheng couldn’t help but lament.

The remaining forces of the Thunder Fist Sect and Sword and Saber Sect had been wiped out tonight, likely leading to a complete loss of prestige and standing in the martial world.

Without Inner Strength experts to anchor them, a sect is destined to falter in the martial world.
