Chapter 84: Crimson Fiend
“Seven Injuries Fist, Commander Grade Earth Attribute, Beginning Level of close-combat martial art technique. Each strike demonstrated offensive strength, as well as overpowering and scary power and intensity. One fist contains seven various forces: it can be aggressive, peaceful, calm within the fierceness of the fist, or fierce within the calm. The force can be projected, withdrawn, or directly contact the opponent. The enemy cannot withstand the constantly changing type of force within the fist and will sustain significant internal damage. Once honed to near completion, each stroke can contain a hidden force and smash every organ in the enemy’s body!”
Su Yi was lost in contemplation. The Young Master of Black Fiend School did not appear to have cultivated this technique, and he had no idea where he obtained it. Perhaps it was related to the cultivation requirements of this method.
From what he could see of the technique information, if one’s Neigong is not strong enough, he must not learn it, or he will destroy himself from within, become insane, and become uncontrollable.
Su Yi had experimented with it and found that he could cultivate the technique, but he was unable to control it as effectively as he would have liked.
“Practice makes perfect!”
Su Yi murmured to himself. In front of a tree, he closed his eyes. There was only a pure silence in the surroundings except for the occasional roars of beasts within the depths of the forest.
And suddenly, Su Yi’s eyes shot wide open. A hand seal was formed, and his hand clenched into a fist. A faintly black-colored Yuan Qi enveloped his hand together with the seal.
“Seven Injuries Fist!”
Boom!
Su Yi decided to practice the technique. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect; he wished to cultivate it to near completion as soon as possible. What he lacked the most currently was power.
For the next few days, as Su Yi travelled through the Forest of Demons, he practised the “Seven Injuries Fist” and “Crimson Flame Palm.”
He would train until he had depleted all of his strength, and then he would enter the mysterious space to meditate and heal.
When he pushed himself to the limits and began meditating in his exhausted state, Su Yi could clearly feel his drained muscles and bones greedily devouring the natural energy to recover.
That feeling made Su Yi feel that his body was slowly becoming stronger and was in a process of metamorphosis.
After several days, Su Yi began to feel a sense of self-confidence.
With his current cultivation level of Yuan Soul Realm Sixth Grade, the “Seven Injuries Fist” and “Crimson Flame Palm,” if he were to face the Young Master of Black Fiend School once again, he was sure that he would make no mistakes.
Mountain Cliff, Summit of the Mountain
“I do not care who you are! Today, you will not escape from my hands!”
An evil cry resounded through the air; tens of strong cultivators were in a circle formation, trapping a skinny, old man on the mountaintop.
If Su Yi were present, he would be able to determine with a single glance that the old man was the one who had deceived him at the mine.
Just that now this old man’s face was pale white, and his situation did not seem all that favorable for him.
Looking at the tens of figures surrounding him, especially the few people in front of him, the old man had a very serious and grim look on his face.
The few people in front of him were all cultivators from the Yuan Void Realm, particularly the old man who appeared to be in his fifties and was standing in front of the others wearing a loose red robe. That old man exuded the aura of someone who has nearly attained the Yuan Emperor Realm.
Seeing that the Black Fiend School had dispatched such a huge force and for this period of time, sealing the entire Forest of Demons, the skinny old man was speechless at this “fight to the death” attitude.
Last time, he wanted to rob the Yuan Stones of Black Fiend School, but he never expected Black Fiend School would make all the required preparations, causing his attempt to fail, and that occurrence should not have prompted the Black Fiend School to take such drastic measures, right? However, now that the Grand Elder of the Black Fiend School and many Yuan Void Realm cultivators had arrived, it made no sense.
Until later, the skinny old man had heard that the occurrence in the mine had something to do with the death of the Young Master of Black Fiend School.
His appearance made the people of Black Fiend School think that he was in cahoots with the young lad who had killed the Young Master; no wonder the Black Fiend School was going to such an extreme to capture him.
The Master of the Black Fiend School had only gotten children in his late years, and he was also the only son; it was not hard to imagine the feelings of the Master.
Looking at the line-up of Black Fiend School, the skinny old man bit down slightly on his lower lip, and his face was grim. He did not try to explain anything; any explanation would probably be useless, and the Black Fiend School would also never let him go.
“Take him down!”
The old man in the loose red robe signaled with his hand waving down; a cold light glimmered in his eyes. He was the Grand Elder of Black Fiend School; he was given the name of Crimson Fiend; probably everyone in the Forest of Demons would have heard of him.
“Boom!”
Five Yuan Void Realm cultivators took to the skies once the Crimson Fiend issued his orders. The auras of their bodies rose and burst forth, and rampant Yuan Qi of different attributes and colors erupted, transforming into a dreadful pressure that crashed down on the top of the mountain. The aura of their bodies had evolved into a storm, sweeping across the entire mountain.
The five Yuan Void Realm cultivators made their move in an enclosed formation, surrounding and trapping the skinny old man from all sides.
“Do it!”
A loud holler sounded, and the Yuan Qi on the five cultivators burst out as Yuan Qi seemed to begin to turn solid.
Just in a flash, five attacks from five different directions enclosed the skinny old man as they made their way to him.
“Rumble!”
In the instant that the five attacks materialized, the skinny old man had formed a hand seal. Fire attribute Yuan Qi exploded, and with an overbearing presence, blew off two of the attacks that were directly in front of him.
“Step! Step!”
Though he had escaped from the cage formed by the five attacks, the skinny old man also staggered backwards as his face became even more grim.
“Seal the surroundings; I’ll take him!”
The Crimson Fiend noticed the skinny old man retreating. He snickered coldly, and his body took to the air. Yuan Qi burst out of him, and in the blink of an eye, appeared right beside the skinny old man.
“Swish!”
The dry and bony hand of the Crimson Fiend shot out like the claw of a ghost with Yuan Qi shining on it as it ripped apart the air, giving off the sounds of howls as it lunged toward the neck of the person in front of him.
The move was fast as lightning as well as swift and merciless.
The face of the skinny old man was as grim as it could be. His eyes watched as the claw, accompanied by the howling sounds of wind, quickly became bigger, tearing across space.
The skinny old man gritted his teeth, and a hand seal appeared silently as he used a forbidden technique. His face was ghastly white, yet his aura rose to another level.
Boom!
A horrifying presence erupted, and the aura surrounding the skinny old man was like it had caused turbulent winds and violent rain.
“Come!”
The skinny old man shouted. The aura in the surroundings, which seemed like a raging storm, turned still, and then as his hands were brought together, it turned into a palm ten meters wide, and then it shot across the air with an unimaginable speed, crashing into the claw directly.
The palm and the claw seemed to have ripped across space, and under tens of astonished eyes, they crashed together and violently exploded.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
One palm, one claw, hit each other, and with a low and loud rumble like that of thunder, echoed through the mountains as the mountains in the surroundings began to crack under the pressure.
Another night had passed, and within the mysterious space, Su Yi stopped his meditation. His face was rosy, and he felt a sense of rejuvenation as if his body was filled with endless vitality.
