Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 622 The Strongest!

hiss hiss hiss...

Left with no other choice, Han Yi clasped his hands together, layer upon layer of black scales stacked on top of each other, and bursts of black energy surged from the scales, constantly canceling out the red light.

"You actually managed to force me to use the Demonic Ape Qi Wave Slash... You already have something to be proud of..." Fang Jiulian had long anticipated this outcome.

This Demonic Ape Qi Wave Slash was a great divine power he comprehended after breaking through to the Grandmaster level, through countless hardships, by condensing his true energy into a stream of resentful fire and evil energy, and by fusing several powers after awakening his Demonic Ape bloodline.

It is extremely powerful, and once unleashed, it is invincible.

However, because it consumes a great deal of energy and could even shorten one's lifespan, he rarely uses it. But he never expected that during this pursuit, he would encounter a martial arts master. He thought the master was easy to defeat, but was forced to use his strongest trump card.

The red light grew brighter and brighter, becoming increasingly dazzling.

Han Yi struggled to hold on, standing still in place.

It wasn't that he didn't want to dodge, but that he couldn't avoid it.

The speed of this crimson light was simply too fast. Under its powerful pressure, rashly dodging would easily expose one's weaknesses.

Therefore, he could only use his two arms, which have the strongest defensive capabilities, to resist head-on.

Han Yi gritted his teeth and persevered. The black scales all over his body merged into one, shimmering with black light. His muscles tensed, and the golden light emanating from his blood and qi condensed and turned black again.

His greatest weakness was his physical strength, which was also the first thing to be broken.

laugh…...

Gradually, a burnt smell was produced, and the hard black scales on the arms slowly began to melt away, and the black aura gradually faded away.

Next came his powerful physical body, which he relied on.

Beneath the dark golden skin, muscles piled up, and blood vessels resembling golden veins rapidly transported thick blood and qi. With the accumulation of blood and qi, the meridians and skin membranes adhered together, forming blocky muscles that looked like metal armor plates.

However, even with his strongest physical defenses, facing Fang Jiulian's crimson light, a pit was corroded on his entire forearm, and it was slowly expanding and spreading.

"I've said it before, only I am the strongest..." Fang Jiulian's slightly manic voice rang out, and a layer of blazing blood light ignited around his entire body, which gushed out from inside his body.

He continued to get closer, little by little.

Sizzle...

The crimson torrent crashed down on Han Yi like a waterfall, pushing him backward. The ground beneath his feet was churned up, leaving two deep furrows.

His legs sank deeper and deeper into the mud. The corrosive wounds on his forearms also grew larger, and the white bone beneath could be faintly seen.

"The...strongest...?!" Han Yi gasped for breath, staring intently at Fang Jiulian. "No, no, no! I, I am the strongest!"

Large amounts of yellow smoke continuously billowed from his arm; this was a gaseous substance formed from the corrosion and annihilation of his skin, flesh, and blood.

The pain is long gone. Perhaps the nerves in the forearm have been burned through and destroyed.

But he couldn't move aside; if he did, the red light would pierce straight through his chest without any obstruction!

But if he kept going like this, he felt... he might... die!

"Since we're all going to die anyway... let's give it a try..." Han Yi laughed maniacally.

Qi and blood represent his physical and external skills.

The strength represents his true internal skill.

The black scales represent the bloodline within him.

Although the three seem unrelated, they all lead to the same goal.

Whether it's blood and qi, strength, or even the black scales and black qi, they are all formed from the differentiation of his primordial blood.

The fusion of Qi and blood with physical strength creates his pure Yang form, which is also his trump card.

If Qi, blood, strength, and dark energy are combined, what kind of changes will occur...?

This is an unprecedented experiment, and no one has ever done it before. No one has ever combined the different inheritances of martial arts, body cultivation, and bloodline into one person like Han Yi.

Therefore, Han Yi did not rush into it before, but wanted to learn more before making a move. But now that he has come this far, he has no choice.

The power resides in the dantian, as firm and icy as ice.

Qi and blood circulate throughout the body, resulting in a balanced and harmonious state.

Black energy condensed in the heart, surging violently.

boom!

The moment the three came into contact, a surge of scalding heat swept over his entire body, and a powerful energy surged from his limbs and bones like a tidal wave, circulating wildly through his blood.

Intense pain spread, like swallowing a bomb and then having it explode, shaking and displacing all the internal organs.

It hurts, it really hurts.

The pain surged and circulated throughout my body before gathering together and rushing towards my head.

Click!

With the sudden surge of heat, Han Yi seemed to hear something inside his body burst open, and the barrier that had been binding his body was easily shattered.

He suddenly felt dizzy, and his vision began to blur.

But this dizziness quickly disappeared, replaced by a feeling of being connected throughout the body.

Although he didn't have X-ray vision, he could vaguely sense that the previously isolated energy, blood, and black energy seemed to have become connected.

At the heart location, something seemed to have appeared—a scattered, indistinct, winding, and coiling thing, like an infant's umbilical cord, spreading out and branching out into countless capillaries that circulated throughout the body and reached the dantian.

A more powerful and pure aura than simple strength, blood, or black energy began to slowly emerge.

Bang! ! !

As it was manifested to the outside world, Han Yi's physique suddenly grew taller again, quickly breaking through two meters and transforming into a behemoth of more than three meters.

His arms and legs, and his entire body, became longer and more slender, and layers of white scales slowly covered his body again.

Each scale is the size of a palm and has a metallic sheen.

puff!

Even more surprisingly, a thick, long white tail, like that of a giant snake, suddenly shot out and swung freely behind him.

Swish...

With a whooshing sound, the long tail suddenly whipped Fang Jiulian, who was constantly approaching, away.

boom! ! ! !

In the blink of an eye, Fang Jiulian was sent flying backwards, like a somersault, leaving a huge crater in the tree trunk, boulder, and bushes, which was charred black.

With a loud thud, he was embedded hard into the protruding hillside.

“Bloodline…second awakening…” Fang Jiulian pulled himself out from the side of the hillside, his face grim. “I never expected to see a scion of a noble family with a second awakening of bloodline in such a small place…”

He opened his mouth wide again, and a gaping maw, like that of a giant ape, split open, from which blood-red light slowly condensed.

“However, even with a second awakening… it still can’t defeat my mutated demonic ape…” He used the same trick again, focusing his attention on Han Yi’s direction.

"Demon...Ape...Aura...Wave..."

at the same time.

"...Pure Yang..."

Han Yi raised his thick, long tail, and a black ball of light slowly condensed at the end of the tail.

This blackness was deeper and more profound than the initial black mist, like a black hole, seemingly containing countless forces.

Splash...

The raindrops fell more and more densely, like fine gray threads.

hiss…...

Near the black orb at the tail end, all the threads seemed to be attracted by something, spontaneously gathering towards it, and nearby grass clippings, dust, gravel... were also constantly attracted and suspended closer to the black orb.

Swish! !

Just as Fang Jiulian unleashed another wave of energy, Han Yi twisted his waist, flicked his long tail, and sent the black ball flying out like lightning.

"...Pure Yang...Limitless Opening!!!"

boom…...

Fang Jiulian only had time to unleash a torrent of blood for a moment before the black ball struck him head-on at incredible speed.

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only the constant intertwining of blood and black, like two particles of different nature colliding with each other.

An invisible shockwave rippled outwards. The top of the hillside, as if erased by a paintbrush, was also affected by this invisible shockwave; the upper half of it bulged out and began to slowly tilt and slide down.

Recently, Fang Jiulian, the center of the tremor, was once again thrown out and crashed heavily to the ground.

When he got up, he first vomited a mouthful of black blood, his entire face was pitch black, especially from his mouth to his throat, where a huge, explosive gash appeared, and his body was covered in bruises and black patches, with not a single patch of good skin.

As for Han Yi, he was also in a very sorry state at this moment.

He paid a price for being bombarded by Fang Jiulian's Qi Wave Slash for so long.

The corrosive wounds on both arms are getting bigger and bigger, and the white bone under the muscles has been completely exposed. Even though the injury has been suppressed, it has only been suppressed and has not healed.

After the impact, his arms hung limply at his sides like sleeves, completely numb and unable to move.

"..."

The two stood facing each other, neither of them speaking.

Snapped!

The two moved simultaneously, lunging at each other.

To ordinary people, it's like two enormous beasts engaging in a life-or-death battle in a dense forest.

Forelegs swipe, upward and downward thrusts, roar and charge...

However, facing Fang Jiulian's relentless attacks, Han Yi found it much easier to cope than before.

Having broken through his physical limitations, his speed increased significantly, making him much faster than Fang Jiulian. He would dodge whenever possible, and if he couldn't avoid it, he would swing his long tail to force Fang Jiulian back.

But that's all he can do.

With his arms paralyzed, his attacks were greatly weakened. He could only use his tail to restrain Fang Jiulian, but it was not enough to break through Fang's defense. The two struggled in the dense forest for a long time, leaving a scene of devastation: the grass was overturned, the hills collapsed, and countless trees were broken.

"A coward who only knows how to run away... If you're so capable, fight a fair fight..." Fang Jiulian finally couldn't hold back and spoke up to mock.

His voice was a little hoarse, and the gash in his throat had not yet healed. This was also why he and Han Yi could only engage in close combat.

"Coward." Han Yi leaped back several steps and spoke calmly.

"Coward? Only someone like you, who only knows how to run away, is a coward! A wimp!" Fang Jiulian roared, clasped his hands together, and lunged forward.

Bang!

Its thick, long tail resembled snake scales. Han Yi flicked it hard, forcing it back once more.

"Coward," he continued.

"Who are you talking about? You coward!" Fang Jiulian's face flushed red as he picked up a large rock and hurled it at Han Yi. "Coward." Han Yi lightly jumped, flicked his tail, and whipped up half a tree trunk, then hurled it at Han Yi in return.

"You fucking...is that all you can say?" Fang Jiulian laughed angrily. "Coward!"

He caught the tree trunk and threw it back.

"Coward."

Han Yi whipped his tail, smashing through rocks and whipping up bushes before throwing them over.

"coward!"

Fang Jiulian was not to be outdone, and continued to use the surrounding debris to smash it.

The two of them went back and forth, exchanging insults constantly.

No matter how much Fang Jiulian cursed, Han Yi only said one thing.

"Coward."

This infuriated Fang Jiulian to the point of rage, his seven orifices practically emitting smoke.

No matter who it is, especially when arguing, it's fine if the two people are exchanging insults back and forth.

However, if one party keeps spewing trash talk while the other remains calm and doesn't respond at all, and keeps using the same phrase to insult, the anger in their heart will grow stronger and stronger, and they will feel extremely frustrated.

Unfortunately, he was completely powerless against Han Yi. He could only listen to the word "coward" over and over again.

In fact, both of them know in their hearts that neither can defeat the other after fighting for so long.

Fang Jiulian was unable to use his divine powers after Han Yi's black energy entered his body. Han Yi, on the other hand, had both arms crippled, greatly reducing his offensive capabilities.

When it comes to pure close-quarters combat, Fang Jiulian is slow but strong, but it's useless if he can't hit his target.

Han Yi is fast, but his attacks are weak; if he can't break through the defense, it's all in vain.

Since no winner had been decided, both of them were holding their breath, and neither was willing to give the other a way out; neither wanted to leave first.

Leaving voluntarily is tantamount to admitting that you can't defeat the other party.

That's why we're in this awkward situation now, with both sides exchanging trash talk.

As time passed, the rain subsided and eventually stopped.

As dawn broke and the sky turned a pale white, a patch of blue mixed with a hint of red appeared in the eastern sky.

The two actually fought all night long.

"Who? Who's there?"

Fang Jiulian suddenly stopped swearing, focused his gaze on one spot.
