Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

Chapter 428: Chapter 160: Five-Animal Xingyi! Innate Beheading!_3

Zheng Feisha bellowed anxiously, “Stop fighting! I no longer want the corpse of Old Man Qishi! If we keep fighting, when the Innate Martial Artists of the Spirit Taoist Sect arrive, neither of us will be able to escape!”

Zheng Feisha sensed that the situation was dire, fearing that continued combat would lead to his own defeat, he wanted Su Changkong to cease and desist, but at this point, how could Su Changkong possibly stop? He must kill Zheng Feisha!

“Whoosh!”

Suddenly, Su Changkong’s left hand yanked, and countless nearly invisible silken threads pulled taut, binding Zheng Feisha’s ankles!

During the heat of battle, Su Changkong had quietly operated the Heaven Silkworm Technique, exhaling silk that scattered all around, setting a trap, and now, he activated it amidst Zheng Feisha’s great mental turmoil.

“No good!”

Although Zheng Feisha’s curved blade swept around, immediately shredding the silken threads, his complexion drastically changed, and he cursed his bad luck silently.

The illusion transformed into a Giant Ape, its massive hands already fiercely pressing down on Zheng Feisha’s shoulders, forcing his knees to bend from the pressure and the ground to cave in; he was unable to stand straight. Despite his furious roars and the bulging veins on his forehead, even as the Human Flower on his head bloomed and his Heavenly Pulse surged, he couldn’t break free from the Giant Ape Illusion’s binding!

“Die!”

A chilling sensation crept up the back of his neck; it was Su Changkong, who didn’t forgo this opportunity to overcome his enemy. The Iron-Cutting Sword in his hand chopped toward Zheng Feisha’s nape.

“No!!”

Being pinned and trapped, Zheng Feisha couldn’t dodge and could only await the arrival of death, letting out an exceedingly unwilling roar from his mouth.

“Szzt!”

Without any suspense, Zheng Feisha’s head was brutally chopped off; the head was sent flying into the air and heavily smashed onto the ground, from the severed neck, blood burst forth like a fountain!

Zheng Feisha, dead!

This Innate Martial Artist, Zheng Feisha, had come here with the intent of stealing Old Man Qishi’s corpse to exchange for benefits with the Evil Sect Demon Gate, a task he perceived as exceedingly simple with few possible upsets.@@novelbin@@

But he could have never expected that he would meet his end here and that it would be at the hands of a young man who hadn’t even reached the Innate Realm.

“I won…”

Su Changkong took a deep breath, feeling a sense of relief wash over him.

Originally, when he killed Chikhatu, Su Changkong had exhausted everything, even to the point of becoming crippled with broken meridians, before he could successfully kill him.

Now, facing Zheng Feisha, who was even stronger, although it was also quite laborious to kill him, Su Changkong himself was almost unscathed, and that was the difference!

“Zheng Feisha… is dead?”

The involuntary roar of Zheng Feisha’s unwillingness to succumb sent shudders through Wang Xinjian’s heart, causing an uncontrollable tremble and great chaos in his mind.

“Bang!”

Already equally matched in the fierce battle with Qian Rui, this moment of distraction immediately gave Qian Rui an opening. Wang Xinjian was punched in the chest by Qian Rui, blood spurting from his mouth as he was sent flying back, his bones crushed on impact with the ground. He kept coughing up blood and could no longer rise.

“Huff huff… He… he killed Zheng Feisha?”

Only then did Qian Rui see the far-off Su Changkong sheathing his sword, as well as the fallen Zheng Feisha with his body separated from his head; he was deeply shocked.

From the outward display of qi and blood anomalies when Su Changkong fought Zheng Feisha, Su Changkong was indeed only in the Qi-Blood Realm, and even his Blood Refining level was not as advanced as Qian Rui’s, having not reached the completeness of the stage!

Logically, he should have been completely overwhelmed by an Innate Martial Artist; yet, after their intense fight, the result was Su Changkong defeating Zheng Feisha, beheading him with a single strike!

This was simply unheard of, and if Qian Rui had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would have never believed that a martial artist in the Qi-Blood Realm could be so powerful!

“Hmm?”

Just as Su Changkong had caught his breath and was recovering from his exertion, he didn’t hesitate and prepared to quickly leave. However, his expression changed slightly, a hint of helplessness washing over him.

In the passages of the cave, three figures had appeared.

The one leading them had an elegant demeanor and an air of authority without anger, and it was none other than Helian Yuan, the Sect Master of the Spirit Taoist Sect!

Apart from Helian Yuan, there were two others, each with an overflow of surging spiritual energy indicative of Innate Martial Artists, surely no weaker than Zheng Feisha, and they were Innate Martial Artists of the Spirit Taoist Sect!

The commotion from the recent battle had been too great; it would have been impossible for the Spirit Taoist Sect not to notice.

The tremendous disturbance immediately brought Helian Yuan and the other two top powerhouses of the Spirit Taoist Sect to the forbidden area of Heaven Silkworm Cave behind the mountain.

“Senior brother… has died while meditating.”

Upon entering the Heaven Silkworm Cave, Helian Yuan surveyed the area and spotted the body of Old Man Qishi, his face showing a trace of sadness.

He had still held out hope that Old Man Qishi had not died while meditating, but now all hope was completely shattered. The oldest man of the Spirit Taoist Sect had finally become history and would disappear from the Spirit Taoist Sect!

“What’s happened here? Who is that young man? And who’s the dead one?”

The other two Innate Elders of the Spirit Taoist Sect also noticed the situation inside the Heaven Silkworm Cave.

Besides Qian Rui and the seriously injured Wang Xinjian, there was also a young man standing in the distance, as well as a body lying severed from its head, which puzzled them as to the identities of these two people, one alive and one dead!

“You are… Su Helai? What are you doing here?”

As for Helian Yuan, he quickly recovered from his grief and, upon seeing Su Changkong, he paused, blurting out in recognition. He recognized Su Changkong as the one who had come to the Spirit Taoist Sect months ago, wishing to ask Old Man Qishi for help in reconnecting his severed veins.

At that time, Old Man Qishi had been in a closed-door death meditation and had most likely died while meditating, so Helian Yuan had sent him away.

But now, seeing Su Helai again in their Spirit Taoist Sect’s forbidden Heaven Silkworm Cave, raised new concerns.

“Sect Master! Elder Sunchi, Elder Anyou!”

Seeing Helian Yuan and the other two arrive, Qian Rui finally let down his guard and hurriedly went to greet them.

“Qian Rui, what’s going on here?” Helian Yuan immediately asked, and the other two Elders listened quietly while keeping an eye on Su Changkong.

“Three months ago, Su Helai suddenly appeared, wanting to see Master to help him reconnect his veins, so he forced his way into Heaven Silkworm Cave and subdued me… For these three months, he has been in the cave, comprehending the Heaven Silkworm Divine Intent Picture, and tonight Wang Xinjian Brother came with Zheng Feisha to break into the Heaven Silkworm Cave, intending to kill me and steal Master’s body. Su Helai killed Zheng Feisha, and I subdued Brother Wang.”

Qian Rui dared not hide anything and briefly recounted the whole story.

After listening, Helian Yuan’s mouth twitched slightly, and the other two Innate Martial Artists were shocked.

“Su Helai… wasn’t he crippled with severed veins? How did he silently infiltrate the Spirit Taoist Sect and manage to subdue Qian Rui?”

“Zheng Feisha? The Mad Wind Blade Zheng Feisha? He’s an Innate Martial Artist, and he died at the hands of this Su Helai? But he doesn’t look like an Innate Martial Artist!”

Qian Rui’s account only deepened the confusion for Helian Yuan and the others.

It was one thing for Wang Xinjian to collude with an outsider to kill his own junior brother and steal Old Man Qishi’s body; that they could understand.

But how could a person with completely severed veins sneak into the Spirit Taoist Sect’s restricted area, subdue one of their Spirit Taoist Sect’s experts, hide in the Heaven Silkworm Cave for closed-door cultivation, and then kill the Innate Martial Artist Zheng Feisha, who came to steal the body?
