I Become a Martial Arts God in the Chaotic Demon World

Seeing through the illusion, a trace of coldness flashed in Chou Jingxiao's eyes.

"Even without any Qi Blood Essence, killing an Innate Realm Martial Artist like you is as easy as turning my hand over!"

Chou Jingxiao was at the peak of the Xuan Gang Realm, while Han Zheng was at half-step Xuan Gang Realm.

There was almost a whole major cultivation realm between the two.

Chou Jingxiao never believed that he would fall at the hands of someone as insignificant as Han Zheng.

Transforming into a Blood Shadow, Chou Jingxiao was shrouded in a thick layer of Blood Slaughter Gang Qi.

Han Zheng did not dodge or evade but instead frantically urged the Great Black Heaven Demon Technique to gather Gang Qi and tough it out.

Although Chou Jingxiao had lost all his Qi Blood Essence, his flesh, skin, tendons, and bones were still at the peak of the Xuan Gang Realm, stronger than Han Zheng, who had achieved great success with the True Martial Refinement.

In an instant, Han Zheng found himself on the defensive, retreating step by step under Chou Jingxiao's bombardment, even his internal organs shaken, with a trickle of fresh blood flowing from his mouth.

"Stop resisting, it's useless! Not to mention that I've only exhausted my Qi Blood Essence, even if I only had one hand left, killing you would still be as easy as turning my hand!"

Chou Jingxiao laughed wildly as his Blood Slaughter Saber Gang sent Han Zheng flying dozens of feet once again.

Han Zheng just calmly looked at Chou Jingxiao, "Had enough? It seems you're even weaker than I imagined. You've almost exhausted all your True Qi, haven't you? And your True Essence must be running low as well, right?

True Essence is born from the Innate flesh body, strong and vigorous with abundant Qi Blood Essence, naturally producing Innate True Essence.

Without any Qi Blood Essence, your True Essence is like a rootless duckweed; with every move you make, you're overdrawing your pitiful True Essence Power.

Now, how much strength do you have left?"

As his words fell, the sound of roaring wind and thunder suddenly rose around Han Zheng.

Atop the Autumn Water Shocking Swallow, a saber Gang extending several feet condensed, with black Demonic Qi and crimson Blood Slaughter intertwining.

Such powerful Gang Qi was already comparable to that which a true Xuan Gang Realm Martial Artist could command.

With Han Zheng's slash, a frenzied killing intent surged as if splitting open the gates of Purgatory.

Avici Path Shura Slash!

"You brat seeking death! Even if I only have a fraction of my power left, killing you is as easy as turning my hand!"

With a furious roar from Chou Jingxiao, his hands formed Seal Techniques, and True Qi crazily converged around him.

Just as Han Zheng had said, when Qi Blood Essence is strong and vigorous, True Essence naturally forms within the body.

Now, with his Qi Blood Essence depleted, even Chou Jingxiao's True Essence was extremely weak, causing him to only be able to barely gather some True Qi.

But in Chou Jingxiao's hands, this True Qi rapidly transformed into True Essence and then quickly turned into a blood-colored Gang Qi that coiled around him, condensing into a Sky Wolf howling at the moon.

Beichen Sky Wolf True Gang!

As powerful as Chou Jingxiao was, he naturally possessed specialized Gang Skills.

But now, he was forcing his True Qi into True Essence and hastily using the Beichen Sky Wolf True Gang to gather Gang Qi. Such overdraw had already taken its toll on his body, with his meridians twitching.

But he had to kill Han Zheng as quickly as possible; if he lingered until Wen Tingyun and the others arrived, his death was certain!

The blood-colored Sky Wolf Gang Qi collided with the Avici Path Shura Slash, and with this fully powered strike from Han Zheng, a pit dozens of feet in size immediately exploded between them.

This time, Han Zheng did not back down but instead quickly moved, accompanied by the roaring of wind and thunder, arriving in front of Chou Jingxiao in an instant.

With both hands grasping the void, an immense True Qi instantly formed into a giant hand and fiercely clenched!

Ape Demon Nine Transformations, Moving Mountain!

Chou Jingxiao's complexion changed drastically. Although his form remained steady and was not disturbed by Moving Mountain, his face turned deathly pale in an instant, and for a moment, he seemed just a skeletal frame covered in skin.

He could feel the little remaining True Essence being plundered, and even his already nearly depleted Qi Blood Essence was stripped clean.

Chou Jingxiao swayed, wanting to cough up blood, but there was already no blood left in his body to vomit.

He had never imagined that Han Zheng, an Innate Martial Artist who had already performed a martial skill of the Xuan Gang Realm caliber like the Avici Path Shura Slash, could possibly still have such a powerful martial skill by his side.

Even if he were Chen Baxian's own son, this seemed a bit too exaggerated.

Having used the Avici Path Shura Slash and Moving Mountain one after the other, Han Zheng had consumed a great deal of energy.

But right now, he couldn't worry about his consumption. Han Zheng pushed Wind and Thunder Nine Transitions to its extreme, and with a move, he was already in front of Chou Jingxiao, his hands forming the Vajra Ming King Seal, bringing down a mighty and robust True Qi like a gold brick atop his head!

When he's down, take his life!

Chou Jingxiao was now completely out of fuel, unable to gather True Qi or even True Essence, completely stripped by Moving Mountain.

But Chou Jingxiao, even at this point, refused to concede defeat.

With his right hand, he struck out at Han Zheng's Great Vajra Ming King Seal, countering that utmost Seal Technique with nothing but the strength of his flesh and, naturally, got blown away with his tendons snapping and his bones fracturing.

Yet Chou Jingxiao did not retreat, instead pressing forward. His figure coiled towards Han Zheng like a venomous snake, his left hand forming a sword-finger thrust towards Han Zheng's eyes!

Demonic Qi erupted without bounds, but Chou Jingxiao's physical strength was astonishingly strong. Even now, drained of Qi Blood Essence, he still had some energy left, and for the moment, Han Zheng couldn't shake him off.

A ferocious expression spread across Chou Jingxiao's face.

What did it matter if his Qi Blood was exhausted, if his True Qi was depleted?

Even if Chou Jingxiao could only move his mouth, he would still manage to bite through his opponent's throat!

Back when he was just an ordinary member of the Blood Wolf Thieves, he was recognized by Zhong Wanchou, the Great Master of the Blood Wolf Thieves, for managing to tear out an opponent's trachea with his teeth alone during a battle where his arms and legs were broken, and from there, he eventually became one of the nine masters of the Blood Wolf Thieves.

But just as Chou Jingxiao's sword-finger was about to pierce Han Zheng's eyes, Han Zheng's own eyes suddenly turned pitch black like ink, as deep as the abyss.

Horror Purgatory Ghost King Form!

The ghastly demon with two horns on its head evoked fear in Chou Jingxiao's heart, but it only lasted for a moment.

He had been affected by Han Zheng's Horror Purgatory Ghost King Form before, and this time he was somewhat prepared for it.

Moreover, amidst this life-and-death struggle, Chou Jingxiao's Mental State even made a breakthrough, seeing through the essence of life and death.

After all, Chou Jingxiao had lived a lawless life; there really wasn't anything for him to fear.

He didn't want to die now, but he also wasn't afraid of dying.

He could use all sorts of schemes, betray his loyal subordinates in a bid for survival, but he was also willing to fight to the death, fearless of mortality.

Therefore, the influence of the Horror Purgatory Ghost King Form on him was limited this time.

But for Han Zheng, that moment was already enough.

Shocking God Needle followed immediately after, driving straight into Chou Jingxiao's body. The excruciating pain triggered by the origin power instantly churned within Chou Jingxiao, making him scream in agony.

The best way to deal with the Shocking God Needle was to force it out of the body along with the Qi Blood, resulting at most in a loss of some Qi Blood Power.

But the problem was that Chou Jingxiao was now out of Qi Blood, lacking any Qi Blood to expel.

Even with a will as firm as iron, Chou Jingxiao couldn't bear such excruciating pain that penetrated to the marrow and even the soul.

Before he could react, Han Zheng's Great Vajra Ming King Seal was already crashing down upon him.

Overwhelmed by the intense pain, Chou Jingxiao's reaction speed began to slow, and the Seal crushed his skull, causing blood to flow from all his orifices.

But Chou Jingxiao's vitality was shockingly strong. Even still, drained of Qi Blood and wracked with pain, having endured a hit from the Great Vajra Ming King Seal, he did not die.

Yet Han Zheng's second Seal was swiftly following the first.

Along with a thunderous crash, Chou Jingxiao's skull shattered completely; Han Zheng smashed half of his head to pieces, and his body fell to the ground with a thud.

[You have slain a peak Xuan Gang Realm Martial Artist. As his Qi Blood was entirely depleted, you can only extract a thousand Qi Blood Essences from his life force.]

Hearing the prompt from the Taotie Furnace, Han Zheng's complexion suddenly darkened.

He had exhausted himself defeating a top-notch Xuan Gang Realm expert, but in the end, he could only obtain a thousand Qi Blood Essences, a blood loss indeed.

However, there was nothing he could do. If Chou Jingxiao were in his peak condition, even with all of Han Zheng's techniques, he could only ensure his own survival; killing his opponent would have been out of the question.

Moreover, even in his depleted state, Chou Jingxiao could yield a thousand Qi Blood Essences extracted from his vitality; had he been at his peak and slain, perhaps four to five thousand could have been obtained.

Han Zheng shook his head slightly and let out a sigh of relief, immediately downing a bottle of Qi Gathering Powder.

A peak Xuan Gang Realm Martial Artist, even in dire straits, was still of the Xuan Gang Realm, with formidable strength and equally formidable vitality—not so easy to kill.

Of course, this was also because Han Zheng possessed such a strong foundation of strength to withstand the initial outbursts from Chou Jingxiao.

Otherwise, a Martial Artist with Pang Wanchun's level of strength would have succumbed and died.

Han Zheng didn't delay; he began to search Chou Jingxiao's body right away.

There was nothing else on Chou Jingxiao, just a Qiankun Bag.

When he emptied the bag, its contents were quite straightforward, only two items.

One was a load of gold, hundreds of gold bricks forged from a significant amount of gold.

The other was a small box. There were no Elixirs or anything of the sort.

Having crossed the Tiancang Mountain Range, Chou Jingxiao's supplies had been exhausted, leaving only those unspendable gold bricks.

No need to mention what was in the small box, Han Zheng's eyes immediately lit up.
