"Take my own life?" White Bone Master laughed in extreme anger. "Do you know who you're talking to? I am the chief of the four guardians of the Blood Demon Cult, the strongest below the Innate Realm Master!"
"And who do you think you are? There should be a limit to your ignorance!"
With these words, White Bone Master struck in anger. He extended his right palm, concentrating his tough qi within it. The air within a ten-meter radius seemed to be instantly sucked away. In his palm, a terrifying vortex of energy spun rapidly, filled with suppressed power.
Then he struck with his palm!
This anger-fueled palm strike was truly earth-shattering!
Suddenly, it was as if a fierce wave of energy exploded from nowhere, with force like collapsing earth and falling rocks, evil waves filling the sky, its power shaking all directions.
The might of this palm strike caused everyone's expressions to change drastically, as if the sky was falling.
This was the first time everyone had seen White Bone Master strike with full force. His status as the strongest in the Tough Qi Realm below the master level wasn't just empty talk.
Elder Xing, who was also at the Tough Qi Realm, couldn't help but tremble at seeing this palm strike, for it had nearly reached the realm of a master. It became clear that when White Bone Master had fought him earlier, he hadn't been using his full power, but merely toying with him.
How would Gu Qingfeng respond to such a powerful strike? Could he really block it?
Everyone's hearts were suspended in anticipation, for Gu Qingfeng was now their only hope. If he fell, they would all die!
Gu Qingfeng, who stood at the center of the palm wind's storm, remained calm with his hands behind his back, showing no movement at all, as if completely ignoring the strike.
The ferocity in White Bone Master's eyes grew more apparent. He couldn't gauge Gu Qingfeng's true ability, but given his opponent's confident attitude, he must have something to rely on. Therefore, he attacked with full force from the start, holding nothing back.
At his level, he understood well the principle that even an eagle uses its full strength to catch a rabbit.
Seeing Gu Qingfeng's arrogant stance, neither dodging nor evading but choosing to take the hit head-on, he couldn't help but laugh coldly inside.
This palm strike contained decades of power - how could you possibly withstand it?
Even an Innate Realm Master wouldn't dare to take this strike without any defense!
The next moment!
The terrifying qi-laden palm wind struck Gu Qingfeng's body like a missile!
BOOM!!!
An earth-shaking explosion rocked the heavens and earth, tearing through the night sky!
Like a bomb explosion, with Gu Qingfeng at its center, earth and rocks flew everywhere, dust rising several meters high!
Gu Qingfeng's figure was completely buried in the dust.
"Hehehe..." White Bone Master's eerie laughter echoed across the field.
"No one, no one can take this without any defense..."
"Had enough?"
Suddenly, a calm voice emerged from the dust.
White Bone Master's laughter stopped abruptly, as if he were a duck being choked.
His expression changed drastically, looking at what was before him with utter disbelief, as if he'd seen a ghost.
As a mountain breeze blew, dispersing the dust, a figure stood there, emanating an almost solid golden light.
That figure was looking at White Bone Master with a composed smile.
Within a ten-meter radius around him, the ground had collapsed nearly thirty feet deep, littered with corpses and bones.
Those were White Bone Master's zombies.
And the unfaltering figure was none other than Gu Qingfeng.
Gu Qingfeng walked out from among the corpses and bones, and under everyone's shocked gazes, slowly spoke: "Is that all you've got?"
His tone was calm, but carried a hint of disappointment.
"Impossible!!!" White Bone Master roared madly, for the scene before him severely challenged his worldview. After decades of bitter cultivation, even willingly becoming a demon in pursuit of power, now when he thought he had obtained great strength, his full-force strike was nothing but a joke before this young man.
"Who exactly are you?!" White Bone Master roared frantically.
He might not have noticed that his voice now carried a trace of fear.
"Me?" Gu Qingfeng smiled slightly: "Let me introduce myself. I'm Gu Qingfeng, a trainee Demon Eliminator from the Demon Suppression Bureau of Wutong Prefecture."
Silence!
The scene fell into an eerie quiet once again.
These were the same words Gu Qingfeng had spoken twice, but the effect they produced was entirely different.
The first time had earned eye rolls and mockery, but this second time, no one dared to look down on the title of trainee Demon Eliminator.
Si Wei couldn't help but look questioningly at the Head Guard, as if asking with her eyes: "Didn't you say trainee Demon Eliminators were weak?"
The Head Guard was too shocked to speak.
How could someone with this level of power be a trainee Demon Eliminator!? He must be a Heaven-rank Demon Eliminator!
"What nonsense, you think you've won?" White Bone Master roared again, believing Gu Qingfeng was deliberately mocking him.
"Innate Realm Master? So what? Today I'll destroy a master!"
White Bone Master now regarded Gu Qingfeng as an Innate Realm Master, as there was no other way to explain how he could emerge unscathed from his full-power strike.
In his view, Gu Qingfeng must be an old monster with a youthful appearance due to some age-preserving technique, definitely an Innate Realm Master, and surely one of the strongest among them. Nothing else made sense.
In fact, not just White Bone Master, everyone present thought the same, except for Si Wei, who knew nothing of martial arts.
Hearing White Bone Master's words, Gu Qingfeng became excited - did this mean he had more tricks up his sleeve?
White Bone Master's full-power strike had just increased Gu Qingfeng's defense by +100+100+100... Now he clearly felt that his defense had once again reached some kind of limit.
Just like when he first broke through his limits to gain Bronze Skin Iron Bones, and when he was attacked by zombies to gain the Diamond Body, it was happening again. He just needed one final push - perhaps just one more point of defense would break through the boundary for another advancement!
So Gu Qingfeng eagerly anticipated White Bone Master's trump card.
"Go ahead and use whatever techniques you have. I hope you can make this more enjoyable for me."
"Fine! You forced me to this!" White Bone Master suddenly shouted: "White Bone Demon Fire!"
With his command, a bone-white flame suddenly appeared in White Bone Master's hand!
The flame was extraordinarily sinister, as pale as bone throughout, with a grinning skull seemingly laughing wickedly within it.
As soon as this fire appeared, everyone felt a wave of heat assault them, and the surrounding temperature rose by dozens of degrees!
White Bone Master's figure, illuminated by the flames, appeared strangely distorted.
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
