Chapter 866: Martial Spirit
Yan Feng sighed and said, "The most obvious mark of the Martial Spirit is the True Qi Armor! Once you step into the Martial Spirit Realm, your True Qi can turn solid, forming something like armor on the surface of your body, and your defense skyrockets.
Although a quasi–Martial Spirit still can’t fully do that, they can already condense True Qi Armor on parts of the body, which is terrifying enough.
Explaining it like this you might still not get it, so just remember this: as long as your grandmaster is willing to make a move, among those few Overlord Peak experts, not a single one can take even one exchange from him.
They can’t even crack his defense."
"That scary!"
Lin Jun was so excited he could hardly sit still. "Then why doesn’t the old man take action and kill Yang Qi to avenge my father!"
"No rush, he’ll come!"
Yan Feng chuckled. "I’m guessing your father has already gone to invite the old man to come out of seclusion."
After all, the Sea City Martial Alliance can’t just swallow a loss and be unable to exact payback!"
As they spoke, the battle over there had already entered a frenzied stage.
The Undying Barbarian King was covered in wounds.
But the more he fought the braver he became.
Those four weren’t feeling any better either.
Especially the Golden Arhat—he’d been beaten so badly his arms could barely lift anymore, his internal organs were shaken, and he kept vomiting blood.
Of course, with helpers now, he was a lot more relaxed and finally had a chance to seek revenge.
That bald head was like a hammer, ramming endlessly into the Undying Barbarian King.
The Undying Barbarian King was held up, unable to free his hands to launch an attack at him at all.
Mo Ya, as a Gu Master, attacked from range, releasing Gu Insects and giving the Undying Barbarian King no end of trouble. If not for the Jade Talisman Yang Qi had given him, the Undying Barbarian King would probably already be poisoned to death.
Su Ta wielded a longsword, his swordsmanship exquisite and speed extremely fast, leaving sword scars on the Barbarian King’s body from time to time.
Being able to break through the Barbarian King’s defense showed that this man’s Swordsmanship really was terrifying—that wasn’t just bragging.
Of course, the strongest was still Tian Dan!
Tian Dan specialized in Tiger Fist; his offense was wildly violent, like a fierce tiger charging down from the mountain. Every strike he threw carried enormous power.
The Undying Barbarian King’s greatest pressure came from him.
"Tiger Cannon Fist!"
With Tian Dan’s furious shout, the fierce tiger burst out of its cage like a tiger-shaped cannonball, blasting the Barbarian King flying and smashing him into a big tree, snapping the tree clean in half.
Yet the Undying Barbarian King seemed to be enjoying himself. He climbed up from the ground, his face full of laughter.
"Yang Qi, your bodyguard is about done. You should surrender too!"
Wen Xia spoke smugly, as if he already had Yang Qi in the bag.
Elder Qing Qiu also laughed. "I told you, you can’t possibly overturn this. With the situation today, you’re doomed to lose!"
The people around all shook their heads as well.
Most of them were thrilled, gloating.
"Serves you right! Who told you to be so arrogant!"
"Yeah, offending the South Pill Sect and the South Medicine Group—who do you think you are?"
"Heh, you refused to sell Elixirs? Now whether you want to sell or not, you’re going to sell, and for free too!"
"Truly stupid and ignorant!"
The crowd kept mocking, as if they’d already decided Yang Qi was bound to lose.
Yang Qi, however, kept chewing his gum, smiling faintly like this had nothing to do with him. "A bunch of idiots, so this is the limit of your vision!
How could my bodyguard possibly lose!"
The more heavily the Undying Barbarian King is injured, the stronger he gets!
When he’s on the brink of death—that’s when he’s the most terrifying!
Not only terrifying, he might even break through!
This is why the Undying Barbarian King hadn’t used weapons from the start.
Yang Qi had specially had a pair of Choppers crafted to fit him—they weren’t Magic Artifacts, but already quasi–Magic Artifacts, stronger than any ordinary weapon.
The Barbarian King hadn’t used them, which meant he hadn’t reached his limit yet.
"That’s about enough, right? Don’t play yourself to death."
Yang Qi suddenly looked at the Barbarian King and spoke.
"Heh heh, it’s indeed getting a bit over the top!"
The Undying Barbarian King grinned, and suddenly golden light burst out from his body.
Then, a pair of Choppers appeared in his hands.
"Careful!"
Tian Dan sensed something was wrong and shouted urgently.
Unfortunately, it was still too late.
Wrapped in Golden Light, the Undying Barbarian King’s Combat Power and speed both soared.
In an instant, he was already in front of the Golden Arhat, a ferocious grin on his face. "You’re good at defense, right? Let’s see you defend this!"
The Chopper hacked down.
The only thing the Golden Arhat could do was pour everything into blocking.
But it was useless!
A blood line split open between the Golden Arhat’s brows, then rapidly spread downwards.
Boom!
His body toppled to the ground. He didn’t even have time to scream before he was dead.
Dead beyond dead.
Because even his corpse wasn’t intact.
Before the crowd could react, the Undying Barbarian King was already in front of Su Ta.
Su Ta was the weakest of the three left.
Naturally he couldn’t survive even one swing.
Su Ta thought his speed was very fast.
He tried to dodge the Undying Barbarian King’s strike, but he failed—the Barbarian King’s attack clung to him like a shadow. All he saw was the arrival of the axe shadow.
And he couldn’t block that axe shadow’s attack.
"Ah...!"
In the instant before death, Su Ta regretted everything. He shouldn’t have joined this battle at all, but he’d been possessed by ghosts and gone to cooperate with the South Pill Sect.
Now, he’d lost everything!
Everything!
Gu Master Mo Ya saw this scene and bolted in terror.
The Undying Barbarian King hurled his axe directly; it spun a few times in midair, then chopped down onto Mo Ya’s back.
Mo Ya died a miserable death!
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
All of this took place in just over ten seconds.
The entire crowd was scared half to death.
No one had expected that the Undying Barbarian King, who’d almost seemed done for, would suddenly go full berserk and instantly kill three Overlord Peak experts. It was way too terrifying.
If they hadn’t witnessed it with their own eyes, they truly wouldn’t have believed it was real.
Lin Jun’s legs were trembling, and he felt a warm stream running down his pant leg.
Yan Feng also sucked in a sharp breath of cold air; he’d never imagined this Undying Barbarian King would suddenly become so strong.
Wen Xia was already shaking all over in fright.
The smile on his face had vanished completely.
His former confidence had been hacked to pieces by those two Choppers.
Elder Qing Qiu nearly collapsed to the ground. Miscalculated—utterly miscalculated. Yang Qi had been right—these people simply couldn’t possibly hurt him.
They couldn’t even handle one Undying Barbarian King.
"Heh heh, they’re all dead. It’s your turn to die now, isn’t it?"
The Undying Barbarian King looked at Tian Dan, a strange smile spreading, and then lunged straight at him.
Within the Golden Light, the Undying Barbarian King’s speed and strength both exploded upward.
Tian Dan didn’t dare think too much.
He unleashed Tiger Cannon Fist once more, hoping to blast the Undying Barbarian King back and use the chance to escape.
He didn’t want anything anymore.
He didn’t even want revenge anymore.
Facing a freak like this, survival was priority number one.
He had to get out of here fast.
Only then could he keep his little life.
But tragically, this time his Tiger Cannon Fist didn’t hurt the Undying Barbarian King at all; it couldn’t even pierce that layer of Golden Light before it dispersed.
