"What a magnificent heaven and earth spiritual energy!"
Both monster warriors and a group of Innate Martial Artists couldn’t help but feel their hearts pounding. As a Five-Qi Grandmaster, Qi Gang’s mobilization of nature’s spiritual energy in his fury was vastly beyond the imagination of ordinary Innates!
"Guiding Technique!"
Facing an opponent like Qi Gang, Su Changkong wasn’t careless. He concentrated his spirit, pushing the sensory enhancement provided by the Guiding Technique to its limits. At this moment, he felt a unity with the heaven and man, more in harmony with nature, and the spiritual energy within a range of fifty or sixty yards was at his beck and call.
Whoosh!
Su Changkong’s body seemed to turn into a vortex, gathering a massive amount of nature’s spiritual energy that even started to become visible as mist!
"What? How can this lad mobilize such dense nature’s spiritual energy? Even the spiritual energy I’ve gathered is almost being snatched away by him..."
Qi Gang couldn’t help but change his expression.
In reality, as a Five-Qi Grandmaster, the range of nature’s spiritual energy Qi Gang could mobilize was among the broadest in the Innate Realm, reaching nearly a hundred yards around him—much larger than Su Changkong’s sixty-yard range.
However, the density of nature’s spiritual energy Su Changkong mobilized was even higher! It was as if the spiritual energy within that range was all drawn by him, and even the spiritual energy Qi Gang had mobilized showed signs of being stolen by Su Changkong!
"Illusory Blood Sword Manual. Blood Prison Massacre!"
This made Qi Gang decide to take action immediately. He let out a low roar, and a huge amount of nature’s spiritual energy mixed with Sword Intent turned into blood-colored Divine Swords.
The sky and the ground both seemed to sprout blood as if from fresh wounds, and a pungent smell of blood spread, causing dizziness and giving the sensation of falling into a blood-red hell.
"How terrifying..."
Even those monster warriors with immortal bodies had violent twinges in their hearts, knowing these were killing moves imbued with terrifying Sword Intent. Even their immortal bodies would not work against this, as it could obliterate them on the level of spirit and Sea of Consciousness!
"Kill!"
With a single point of his finger, Qi Gang sent dozens upon hundreds of blood-colored Divine Swords furiously shooting towards Su Changkong. Each sword carried the devastating power to tear the skies apart, and the mere Sword Intent was enough to drain one’s face of all color and give a sensation of being in hell, helplessly awaiting the slaughter.
"Compared to Qi Gang, my Blade Intent is not as strong as his Sword Intent, nor is my Martial Arts Realm as high... My advantage lies in my robust, overbearing True Qi!"
Su Changkong clearly knew that he was not a Five-Qi Grandmaster of the same realm as Qi Gang; his greatest advantage was his own high realm of Martial Arts cultivation.
"Turtle Breathing Qi Armor!"
With a single thought from Su Changkong, and faced with the inescapable blood-colored Divine Swords filling the heavens, the only thing Su Changkong could do was to endure the attack.
Whoosh!
The Turtle Breathing True Qi surged from Su Changkong’s body, flowing through every part of his skin and forming a layer of light blue Qi Armor about three inches thick, its surface rippled as if water was flowing over it.
"Merge the Blade Qi into it!"
Meanwhile, having just witnessed Qi Gang’s technique of condensing Sword Qi into Sword Armor, Su Changkong attempted a similar method.
Hum hum hum!
Blade Intent in Su Changkong’s Sea of Consciousness trembled and instantly transformed into a vast amount of Blade Qi, merging into the Turtle Breathing Qi Armor. This substantial Qi Armor, already like a solid substance, now had an added sharpness to it, and beneath the calm appearance of the Turtle Breathing Qi Armor was the surging tide of Blade Qi!
With Su Changkong’s current potential and comprehension, coupled with his grasp of Blade Intent, he effortlessly mimicked Qi Gang’s defensive tactics. Combined with his innately defensive-oriented Turtle Breathing True Qi to condense into Turtle Breathing Qi Armor, his defensive power was even greater than before.
"Furious Waves Slap the Shore!"
At the same time, Su Changkong’s left palm condensed Giant Whale True Qi and pushed outwards, turning the ferocious Giant Whale True Qi into a huge whale that raised monstrous waves, seemingly endless and layer upon layer.
Offense and defense as one!
Facing the killing move of Qi Gang, the Five-Qi Grandmaster, Su Changkong also took the challenge seriously.
"Hiss hiss hiss!"
With a single palm strike, Su Changkong raised monstrous waves that collided with the blood-colored Divine Swords that were furiously piercing towards him.
Some of the swords were engulfed by his unceasing palm strikes, disappearing without a trace, but many were so sharp that they tore through the layers of palm energy, staining the air red with blood and furiously stabbing at vital points on Su Changkong’s chest, abdomen, head, and other parts.
But the Turtle Breathing Qi Armor on Su Changkong’s body, though seeming to be only three inches thick, was actually forged from ten strands of Innate Qi, condensed from vast amounts of Turtle Breathing True Qi, with an extremely strong defense, and further reinforced with a great deal of Blade Qi, making it even tougher.
"Puff puff puff!"
The blood-colored Divine Swords that had pierced through Su Changkong’s palm energy inevitably had their power diminished, and when they struck the Turtle Breathing Qi Armor, they penetrated only a bit more than two inches, but ultimately they couldn’t completely break through and didn’t touch Su Changkong at all!
"He can withstand my Blood Prison Massacre?"
Qi Gang’s heart also skipped a beat. Su Changkong’s Inner Strength cultivation was too terrifying. Facing the killing move of a Five-Qi Grandmaster, he was able to withstand it head-on without a single injury.
"Chop!"
Su Changkong’s eyes emitted sharp blade gleams. While resisting Qi Gang’s killing move, Su Changkong seized the moment when Qi Gang’s old strength had waned, and before his new strength could emerge.
Blade Intent in his Sea of Consciousness condensed, and with his body as a force, he stepped forward and swung his Iron-Cutting Sword in a Horizontal Chop, merging his robust True Qi with Blade Qi, pulling along a massive amount of spiritual energy!
"Tss!"
This sword was like a breach across spatial limits, bringing forth a flash of cold light that turned the dark sky snow-white, unstoppable, cleaving through everything!
