Exploring Immortality Cultivation

Joints creaked, indicating that the joint surfaces and cartilage pads were undergoing intense friction. Cultivators exerted force primarily through mana, rather than the physical body. If one's joints were creaking, it pointed to the brink of collapse of the external Gang Qi, reaching the point where relying on one's physical body was the only option!

Surprisingly, this fellow's physical body... No, it was the move used against Fa Xiong!

Facing Wang Qi's punch, which lacked imposing power and was merely forceful and heavy, there was a timeless truth: when there isn't a decisive difference in Daoist knowledge between opponents, "pure strength can suppress technique." Sun Sheng had no doubt that such a punch, if landed on him, could kill him outright!

He was not the kind of cultivator who talked tough but lacked real combat skills. On the contrary, his battle experience was extremely rich, so at this moment, he decisively chose to retreat.

After retreating about a dozen feet, Sun Sheng finally found an opportunity to counterattack, and his battle spirit surged. Greenish-blue Qi Gang burst forth from the Primordial Spirit Acupoint, enveloping his entire body. The Gang Qi in his hands was particularly dense, almost creating the illusion of solidity! Sun Sheng growled in his throat and thrust his fist forward, leaving a blurry afterimage.

Beast-like speed!

This move was originally intended to prevent Wang Qi's pursuit, but the moment Sun Sheng raised his head, his pupils constricted in shock! Wang Qi was only a moment away, and his own punch, which hadn't reached its peak, had hit Wang Qi but caused no damage!

So fast!

Impossible! How could he be that fast!

Wang Qi still had the capacity to flash him a smile at that time.

When disregarding mana, it's the toughness of the muscles that determines human strength and speed. The Quantum Field generated by the Heavenly Song temporarily strengthened the chemical bonds in his muscles, greatly enhancing his body's strength. And strength encompasses both hardness and toughness!

Using part of his mana to enhance the muscles themselves, and another part to increase the energy level of that strength, was countless times more efficient than the traditional method of directly increasing the energy level of strength!

Bang! Wang Qi's hook punch, like a venomous snake seeking crevices, struck Sun Sheng's ribs with a cunning angle.

"Ugh!" Intense pain crushed Sun Sheng's chest, causing his vision to blur. However, the Heavenly Calculation Atlas had its unique advantages in body refinement and survival. After taking the hit, he didn't pass out but used the force of the blow to retreat again.

Then, with his thighs tensed, he sprang off the ground, counterattacking with a speed surpassing that of ordinary cultivators.

Again, it was a straight punch, a stab!

For Tianling Ridge cultivators with absolute strength among their peers, the simplest boxing technique was the best martial art. Sun Sheng's choice was still the most suitable tactic, and he had proved the validity of this combat method in countless battles.

But now, he was facing Wang Qi. After the spell enhancement, Wang Qi's strength was not inferior to his own, and his technique was far superior!

Wang Qi countered move for move with punches. A "snap" resounded as their fists met; it sounded like two leather whips striking each other in midair!

Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap snap snap snap snap snap snap snap!

Wang Qi's eyes were hollow, his gaze seemingly focused on something intangible. The Book of Geometry was rapidly analyzing Sun Sheng's punching pattern; it was thanks to this Cultivation Technique that Wang Qi could accurately block this barrage of punches.

Sun Sheng bit down on his teeth, squeezing strength from every muscle. Despite that, he was still at a disadvantage in this contest of pure strength. Furthermore, this high-speed exchange of blows was not without harm to him. Sun Sheng could clearly feel that with every clash, the accumulated pain in his hand bones increased.

If this stalemate continued for too long, he feared his hand bones would completely shatter!

At this time, Wang Qi's feeling was merely "that's it?"

"The strength is impure, the force exerted not even a tenth of what Senior Sister Ai at a lower Qi Cultivation Level could muster... Speed? Hah? Are you joking? Can this boxing technique even compare to the tentacle monster that woman could conjure?"

Wang Qi's disdainful expression was caught full on by Sun Sheng. The chief of Tianye inwardly cursed––this guy still had energy to spare!

Sun Sheng began to consider whether to change tactics, employing a dragging strategy, relying on the enduring mana of the Heavenly Calculation Atlas like his opponent. Just then, the corners of Wang Qi's mouth curled up in a mischievous smile, "Weak, weak, weak!"

In the midst of speaking, the power in his fists suddenly increased by a third!

"Ah!" Every major joint in Sun Sheng's arms emitted sounds of being overburdened. He hastily retreated, using his right hand to steady his nearly dislocated left arm.

Wang Qi did not pursue his advantage. He leaned back, posing in an overly flashy manner, with his left hand covering his face and his right hand pointing at Sun Sheng, "You, no matter how strong, are just at the Qi Cultivation Stage, aren't you! And I, Wang Qi, after undergoing splendid method enhancement, have already surpassed the level of Qi Cultivation Stage!"

"You bastard... agh agh agh!" Sun Sheng, never one to be broad-minded, completely lost it upon hearing Wang Qi's mockery and no longer cared about tactics, unleashing his strongest power in a bombardment!

Rage fueled the power of the Heavenly Calculation Atlas! Life is never a calm existence, and Sun Sheng's fury aligned with another deep mental realm of the Heavenly Calculation Atlas, increasing the attack power!

However, facing an opponent who seemed as if he had taken drugs, Wang Qi simply smiled and continued his taunting, "I have already surpassed the Qi Cultivation Stage, an unbeatable body, undefeated in a hundred battles! I can control this competition!"

"Bastard, agh agh agh..."

"Sun Sheng, the abilities at the Qi Cultivation Stage are limited. In this brief competition, I learned something––the more you, Sun Sheng, want to win and the angrier you get, the less you can defeat me, Wang Qi! Unless you surpass the Qi Cultivation Stage!"

"Damn it, agh agh agh agh!"

"I believe that only those who have overcome the anger inherent in humans are worthy to be called peak individuals––that's what I think. So, you're destined to lose..."

"You... bastard, agh agh agh... ooh ooh..."

Under the dual assault of psychological and physical blows, Sun Sheng finally collapsed. The moment tears came, the torrential onslaught stopped. He kept up the attack, but those feeble punches could probably not even knock down a child. Sun Sheng, sobbing, threw another punch at Wang Qi's chest: "You... damn... Banished Immortal..."

Wang Qi suddenly felt an eerie atmosphere. He looked around at the solitary and silent surroundings, a drop of cold sweat on his forehead.

Why the feeling of transitioning from a classic tough-guy comic to a BL sadistic training comic? Coach, this style isn't right, is it!

"You... bastard..." His strongest domain completely devastated, and what's worse, that person's face screamed "is that all you've got?" as he fought and taunted at the same time. Sun Sheng utterly collapsed, kneeling before Wang Qi's dark will. After a long while, the referee, with a mysterious expression on his face, flew into the arena and declared Wang Qi the winner.
