This incited a strong murderous intent in Shi Jingtian’s heart, he of course knew that Su Changkong had killed Shi Bupo and others; he hadn’t pointed it out because he didn’t want to clash with Su Changkong right now. His gains were already great enough, and once digested, his strength would increase further, then it wouldn’t be too late to consider other matters. But now, Su Changkong directly and actively brought up the issue, clearly aiming to have a life-and-death battle with him!
Although Shi Jingtian did not want to face Su Changkong at this moment, this did not mean he feared a confrontation with him.
Born into the Shi Family with the lineage of a Martial Saint and a foundation in Martial Arts, Shi Jingtian’s cultivation progress was extremely rapid. He had even perfected his unparalleled techniques to completion within a few months of returning from the Mirror Heaven and Earth, achieving the first level of Entering Saint.
Furthermore, with the ’Heavy Mountain Divine Seed’ left by the ancestors of the Shi Family, Shi Jingtian could refine it at any moment to reach the second level of Entering Saint. This placed him among the elites within the nine nations of the human race.
Even though this Dao Wufeng possessed monstrous talent and was also an Entering Saint, Shi Jingtian was confident that he was superior!
"Mr. Blade is going to fight with Shi Jingtian?"
Li Song was also shocked. Su Changkong arrived here, seemingly having achieved Entering Saint status, and with just a few words, he was on the brink of combat with Shi Jingtian, ready to throw down right in this place.
"Fine! Dao Wufeng, if you want to die... then I shall oblige you!" The murderous intent in Shi Jingtian’s eyes burst forth astonishingly. His voice was not loud, but it resounded through the sky.
An awful aura rose around Shi Jingtian, with just the might of that aura enough to make an ordinary martial artist’s soul fly away in fear, halting their very breath.
"Back off!"
With a flick of his sleeves, Su Changkong whipped up a gust of wind, sending the rigid Li Song flying backward and landing in a corner of the great hall.
At that moment, Shi Jingtian abruptly made his move. His skin turned jet black, like crystal stone, filled with a natural beauty and majesty, a perfect fusion of power and speed!
Shi Jingtian’s cultivation had entered the level of a Martial Saint, far surpassing the previously mentioned Wei Shengxin and those Monster Warriors forcefully elevated by Qin Miesheng.
"Boom!"
Shi Jingtian took a step forward, his body rubbing against the air to create blinding sparks, having forcefully traversed time and space, rapidly closing in on Su Changkong. His right fist, shimmering with the light of ink jade, smashed forward with a speed so swift yet deceivingly slow, confusing even the flow of time, making it tough for one to dodge or respond.
"Come on!"
A lofty fighting spirit surged within Su Changkong’s eyes. Facing an expert like Shi Jingtian made his blood boil, standing his ground without dodging, his powerful Martial Saint physique erupting with astonishing strength, his right fist clenched tightly, unleashing an explosive force with a ferocious punch!
"Rumble!"
Two immense fists collided without any fancy moves, the booming echoes resounding within the great hall, shaking the entire structure, as the space itself tore open with huge cracks. The friction and collision of two forces created a chain of explosive sounds that were terrifying to behold.
Su Changkong felt an oppressive force coming straight at him; Shi Jingtian’s body seemed to be a colossal mountain of rock compressed to an incredibly tiny size, immense and terrible in weight. Even with Su Changkong’s robust physique, he was forced to step back half a step, his feet indented the hard floor of the palace with great force!
"Good!"
Su Changkong was not frightened but thrilled. It was an opponent like this who was worthy of his full strength, to validate how far his current ability could reach!
"Giant Whale Body Technique!"
Su Changkong’s heart beat with extreme speed, his True Blood circulating wildly, and amidst the cracking sounds of his bones, he grew a couple of inches taller, his muscles bulged, his skin turning red, densely covered with battle patterns. The scorching True Blood emitted a heat so high that the air itself became fiery hot like a furnace.
Before achieving Entering Saint status, Su Changkong, through the eruption of True Blood and the activation of the Giant Whale Body Technique, possessed a physique comparable to a Martial Saint. Now, after having entered sainthood, his physical strength chased after those who had cultivated two Divine Seeds of the second layer of Entering Saint!
Boom!
Qi and Blood surged like torrents of crimson waves, as Su Changkong struck out with his left palm, raising seas like an overwhelming whale, layer upon layer of rolling palm force intended to drown the void.
"Heavy Mountain Fist!"
Not to be underestimated, Shi Jingtian’s expression grew solemn. He executed his fist technique, his fist transforming into a soaring mountain to meet the Furious Waves Slap the Shore technique of Su Changkong’s palm.
"Crack! Snap!"
The impact of fist and palm sent shockwaves of colliding waves and mountain rumbles. In a corner of the great hall, Li Song witnessed a terrifying scene: blood-colored waves churning within the void, shaking a massive ink jade mountain, as if even the void was about to be obliterated!
"Deng deng deng!"
Shi Jingtian’s towering body, sculpted like ink jade, was pushed back three steps by Su Changkong’s fierce and domineering palm, each step indenting the ground, a shockwave energy blasted in all directions, reducing the exquisitely ornamental furniture, stone mountains, and other decorations within the hall to ash.
Shi Jingtian’s gaze grew fierce. Since his debut, he had always suppressed formidable enemies single-handedly, and being forcibly knocked back in a head-on collision was a humiliation to him. Su Changkong, right before him, was an adversary he needed to use his true abilities to defeat.
"Law of Heaven and Earth!"
Shi Jingtian roared, Divine Power suffused his body, an ancient Divine Seed rooted within him unleashed Divine Skills, causing his already towering body to swell at an alarming rate.
