I Can Strengthen Infinitely

Chapter 256 190: Millennial Prodigy (Part 2)

As Qin Yuesheng spoke, the isolated island suddenly became quiet.

After a long while, someone responded, "Yes, it's me."

"Hmm!" Although he already had some suspicions in his mind, when he finally received this accurate response, Qin Yuesheng couldn't help but feel shocked.

Wen Tianci was truly still alive? How old could he be?

From the Eastern dynasty to now, it must have been nearly a thousand years.

Could there really be a path to immortality in this world?

As far as Qin Yuesheng knew, even if martial arts entered the Grandmaster Realm, one could at most live for four to five hundred years, a thousand years would be absolutely impossible.

In an instant, Qin Yuesheng's whole body tensed up, facing a thousand-year-old monster at this moment!

"Life Stars are extremely rare, I've lived for so long and have seen less than ten Life Star people, but those I could refine into Corpse Puppets are even fewer. You dared to come to the island proactively, so I must commend your bravery, but unfortunately,

from tonight on, your body will be mine, you can't possibly be my opponent!"

From the top of the island, out of a patch of dark forest, emerged a figure cloaked in black. He was somewhat emaciated, and his sinister eyes looked down at Qin Yuesheng, making one feel as if two sharp swords were stabbing into them.

"So the reason you had those Corpse Ghosts invade the fishing village and kill was to attract me here?" Qin Yuesheng asked.

"Very clever."

"You're truly despicable." Qin Yuesheng erupted violently, leaping into the sky, and in the blink of an eye was on top of Wen Tianci, immediately slashing down with his sword.

The astonishing blade aura surged out, furiously slashing at the rock where Wen Tianci stood.

Wen Tianci moved like catkins, gliding with the wind, and at the very moment the blade struck, he was already floating away on the gust, landing on another rock unscathed.

"Your Blade Skill is ferociously powerful, it must be top-tier martial arts, impressive, but to me, it's useless," Wen Tianci said calmly.

This person's Lightweight Skill was truly peculiar, but Qin Yuesheng knew no fear and flung out a large hand, unleashing over twenty throwing knives, shrouding Wen Tianci in their trajectory.

Yet once again, the opponent dodged with that bizarre Lightweight Skill, as over twenty knives embedded themselves into the rock face, piercing three inches deep.

"I've let you have three moves, two are already past," Wen Tianci laughed.

Qin Yuesheng furrowed his brow tightly, sheathed the Dragon-Slaying Sword, and immediately thrust the Soul-Catching Arm into the rock at his feet, uprooting a massive boulder weighing over a thousand pounds.

"Oh! Such astounding strength!"

Swoosh!

Qin Yuesheng hurled it out, then continued to grab boulders, flinging them madly like a catapult.

For a moment, the island roared with the booming of rocks smashing down.

Wen Tianci weaved nimbly through the crevices between rocks, like a fish in water, evading every stone without being hit.

Qin Yuesheng threw dozens of giant rocks, yet failed to touch even a corner of Wen Tianci's garment, stirring his frustration to the extreme.

"Three moves have passed, now it's my turn," Wen Tianci sneered, charging at Qin Yuesheng with lightning speed, slapping his palm onto Qin Yuesheng's chest.

"Puff!"

Wen Tianci's palm seemed lacking in force, but Qin Yuesheng felt a surge of energy flooding into him, shaking his organs, forcing him to vomit a mouthful of blood.

Fortunately, Qin Yuesheng wore the Celestial Demon inner armor, which greatly mitigated the impact of Wen Tianci's strike.

As his chest was struck, six arms on Qin Yuesheng's back lunged out, grasping Wen Tianci's body; the Thousand-Handed Buddha Dharma Aspect loomed behind, unleashing a storm of a thousand hands upon Wen Tianci.

Bam bam bam bam! Bam bam bam bam!

In an instant, Wen Tianci was hit by a thousand palms, for once giving Qin Yuesheng the chance to retaliate viciously.

Even this legendary figure of a millennium had to kneel after enduring the Thousand-Handed Buddha Transformation.

Under Qin Yuesheng's violent assault, his Inner Strength surged into the Thousand-Handed Buddha Transformation, driving the Thousand-Handed Buddha Dharma Aspect to pummel Wen Tianci into the ground like a pile driver.

Four gaping Qi Points on Qin Yuesheng's back erupted with halos, devouring Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to replenish his depleted Inner Strength.

The section of the island under Qin Yuesheng's barrage instantaneously collapsed into a crater amidst flying earth and stones, roaring and ringing as they fell.

Even so, Qin Yuesheng showed no sign of relenting, continuing his barrage with murderous intent not to stop until Wen Tianci is dead.

"Cough cough cough!"

Wen Tianci's body couldn't withstand such a beating, spewing blood as muscles and bones shattered under the Thousand-Handed Buddha Transformation, clearly fatal injuries, yet a strange feeling crept into Qin Yuesheng's heart.

As the Thousand-Handed Buddha Dharma Aspect dissipated, Wen Tianci's broken corpse lay in the giant crater.

"He's dead..." Qin Yuesheng rubbed his forehead, "But why do I have a bad feeling, though he's clearly dead?"

As he spoke, a black awl suddenly protruded from Qin Yuesheng's abdomen, piercing right through him.

"What?!"

Enduring the intense force striking his mind and the abdominal pain, Qin Yuesheng forcibly leapt forward, extracting the awl from his body.

In doing so, he narrowly dodged the devastating blast of force.

Looking back, he saw two men standing behind him; even with Qin Yuesheng's heightened senses, he couldn't discern when these two had appeared.

Such stealth capability was terrifying!

"Good, good, good!"

At that moment, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from one direction.

Turning at once, Qin Yuesheng saw Wen Tianci standing intact on a high slope, glaring venomously at him while clapping.

"How is this possible?!" Qin Yuesheng stared incredulously at the corpse on the ground, then at the seemingly resurrected Wen Tianci.

Resurrection? Two Wen Tiancis?

"I underestimated you, didn't expect someone so young to possess Divine Skill, truly befitting of a Life Star, so filled with good fortune, nearly had me fooled."

Qin Yuesheng's expression grew somber and grave; he couldn't comprehend this situation—he was certain the Wen Tianci he killed was genuine, yet the one standing now was undoubtedly Wen Tianci too.

The question arose, how could two identical people exist in this world?

Qin Yuesheng had little time to ponder as the two attackers lunged at him again.

One, a middle-aged man wielding a hammer, and the other, a young man with two black awls, the latter was the one who injured Qin Yuesheng. Fortunately, due to his extraordinary physique, his wound was already healing, with bleeding greatly reduced.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Engaging two foes with the Celestial Demon Blade, Qin Yuesheng discarded the Evil-Subduing Saber sheath, fighting with the full power of the Celestial Demon Blade.

Things were not looking right, Wen Tianci's eerie presence weighed heavily on Qin Yuesheng's mind, stirring his deep apprehension.

He urgently needed to eliminate the two presumed underlings of Wen Tianci, to then focus on dealing with the formidable Wen Tianci himself.

Once the Celestial Demon Blade was unleashed, mundane weapons were helpless; within a few strikes, the weapons of the two foes were cleaved in halves by Qin Yuesheng, leaving them defenseless.

Qin Yuesheng swung his blade, aiming straight for the hammer-wielding man's head.
