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

Chapter 456: Chapter 169: Sun and Moon Demon Body! Hong Xiang, the Vast Elephant!_1

“Chi!”

Su Changkong’s third strike sliced downwards, but it only left a wound less than half a foot deep on the demon monster’s body. Under the effect of the demon monster’s Immortal Body, such a wound would heal quickly.

“Roar!”

Zhong Yue roared furiously, his flabby flesh transforming into muscle as his strength surged. Flexing his biceps, he broke free from the Giant Ape Illusion’s grasp. His huge hand descended viciously upon Su Changkong.

Muscles bulging and veins protruding like snakes, his hand, larger than a cartwheel, smacked down, creating a powerful air pressure!

Five Animal Frolics, Spinning Flying Crane!

...

Su Changkong unfurled his movement technique, his figure dashing and circling like a crane in flight, causing Zhong Yue to miss him entirely.

“Boom!”

The massive hand angrily struck the ground, shattering the ice-covered earth within a radius of dozens of meters. Bricks and ice crystals were hurled into the air.

“Chi!”

With the force of a surging torrent, Su Changkong’s blade avoided Zhong Yue’s palm strike and slashed a huge wound across his waist.

Zhong Yue roared again and again as he reached his hands out to grab, but the Giant Ape Illusion charged forward, forcing him to stagger back!

“Who is this person?… Is he truly not an Innate Martial Artist?”

The four Innate Martial Artists of the East Cloud Sect were focused on the distant battle between Wind Sun Moon, Hong Xiang, and the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon, ready to intervene at any moment, yet they couldn’t help but divert some attention to the fierce fight between Su Changkong and Zhong Yue.

This situation deeply shocked them. Zhong Yue himself was an Innate Martial Artist who had even assimilated a demon monster’s Crystal Core. His strength was considerable, even among those in the Innate Realm.

Yet there was Su Changkong, merely a Qi-Blood Realm Martial Artist, how could he match Zhong Yue stroke for stroke?

“Spiritual Energy… Can this person actually manipulate nature’s spiritual energy?”

Deputy Sect Master Bai Yunhe of East Cloud Sect was also astonished to see the Spiritual Energy congeal and manifest as the Giant Ape.

To combat using nature’s spiritual energy; Bai Yunhe could achieve this. With five Heavenly Pulses opened and the Human Flower and Earth Flower condensed, his ‘Essence Qi’ strengthened, allowing him to manipulate nature’s spiritual energy.

But this youngster, who hadn’t even reached the Innate Realm, could actually use nature’s spiritual energy. Such an anomaly was virtually unheard of within the East Cloud Sect!

“We must kill him quickly! With all our might!”

With the Giant Ape Illusion diverting Zhong Yue, Su Changkong kept slashing from the side. However, due to Zhong Yue’s robust physique and large body, it was difficult for Su Changkong to deliver a fatal blow.

Su Changkong understood that the longer the fight dragged on, the worse it would get. He needed to slay Zhong Yue and take his Innate Qi. @@novelbin@@

Whoosh!

With a swing of his arm, Su Changkong threw the Star Pattern Gold Strong Bow he had been carrying on his back. The Giant Ape Illusion grabbed the bow, and along with three Star Pattern Gold Arrows, Su Changkong fused his ‘Essence’ into the arrows.

The Giant Ape Illusion momentarily pulled back while Su Changkong leaped forward, delivering a cut to Zhong Yue’s approaching palm, cleaving it open with a massive wound and pushing back his attack.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”

The Giant Ape Illusion drew the bow and set the arrow, the long ape arms pulling the bowstring into a full moon. The three arrows flew swiftly by, released one after another by the Giant Ape Illusion!

“Hm?”

Zhong Yue was surprised because the three arrows weren’t aimed at him but shot towards a position to his left, a far cry from his own.

Strangely enough, as the arrows flew, they began drawing in Spiritual Energy into themselves. This increased the arrows’ speed exponentially, turning them into three beams of light, the arrowheads sparking with intense friction against the air, traveling hundreds of meters. After a sweeping curve, they turned back and struck at Zhong Yue from behind!

Su Changkong’s Wind Thunder Archery had reached an Unparalleled in the World level, able to infuse ‘Essence’ into the arrows. As they flew, they continuously absorbed Spiritual Energy. The further they traveled, the more powerful they became. Therefore, Su Changkong controlled the Giant Ape Illusion to shoot the arrows into the distance.

Then, employing the techniques of sensing and tracking the enemy’s Qi, learned from the Chasing Soul Arrow, the arrows circled and turned, hitting the target without the need for precise aiming!

“This is bad!”

Zhong Yue’s eyes twitched as he heard the sound of tearing through the air from behind. But the arrows, drawing Spiritual Energy and turning into beams of rainbow light, were too fast, and even if he had realized it, he couldn’t dodge in time!

“Boom, boom, boom!”

The three arrows struck almost simultaneously, pounding into Zhong Yue’s back, spine, and head. After traveling over a mile, the arrows, dragging copious amounts of Spiritual Energy, exploded violently upon impact, accompanied by whirlwinds, lightning, and deafening blast sounds.

Zhong Yue’s head burst open, his spine snapped, and a gaping hole about a meter or two wide was blown out of his back!

“This is… an attack primarily with Spiritual Energy!” Zhong Yue was horrified within. The demon monster’s Immortal Body wasn’t truly immortal; extensive damage to the flesh made recovery increasingly difficult, the greater the destruction.

Beyond that, the level of power also affected the damage to the Immortal Body. Ordinary True Qi, punches, and blade slashes from Martial Artists caused minimal harm, whereas Spiritual Energy inflicted substantially more damage. The destructive power of Divine Skills’ Divine Seed was even greater than that of Spiritual Energy attacks.

Previously when Zhong Yue had been frozen by the power of a Divine Seed, his body had shattered and it took him a long time to reconstitute it, depleting a significant amount of his demonic power.

Su Changkong’s Wind Thunder Archery chiefly involved manipulating Spiritual Energy to wound the target, causing much more damage to Zhong Yue than if Su Changkong had slashed him dozens of times.
