Six Paths Temple

Through this palm strike, Si Ming confirmed one thing: the opponent's chest was indeed soft. He didn't know if all female zombies had such chests, or if it was because the opponent's cultivation level was high enough that she could get rid of the instinctive attribute of "rigidity".

However, zombies are known for their immense strength and impenetrable defense. This palm Flying Zombie. The next moment, she launched a counterattack, carrying with her fully unleashed corpse energy and dragging a demonic black shadow.

The two humanoid beasts clashed again. Despite being only the size of ordinary people, their strength was ten or even a hundred times greater than that of Demon Beasts, comparable to legendary primordial behemoths. Every punch and palm strike contained immense power, making the so-called power of dragons and elephants a joke in front of them. Each clash produced the roar of missile explosions, followed by swirling air currents and howling storms.

The Flying Zombie grew increasingly alarmed as the battle progressed. She had already used ninety percent of her power, yet she still couldn't gain the upper hand. It was worth noting that zombies were one of the strongest races among the Monster Race, and now they couldn't even defeat a mere human.

As for the last ten percent of power, it is not something that masters would easily use in a duel. It is something that needs to be saved for critical moments or to deal with unexpected situations. If one side is forced to the point where they have to fight with all their might every moment, it means that the situation is already very unfavorable to them.

But now, Flying Zombie is considering whether to use her full strength. The only concern preventing her from doing so is: what if the opponent really only used 45% of their power?

"You're distracted, Sevenfold Heaven!"

In terms of martial arts, the Monster Race is far inferior to humans. In fact, it can be said that among all spirits, the Human Race has the most advanced martial arts. This is because the invention of martial arts was to make up for the difference in quality between humans and other creatures. Although it is "martial arts", it is also a manifestation of "intelligence".

Seizing a fleeting opening, Si Ming, his entire body radiating holy light, unleashed the ultimate move of the Radiant King Fist. With a stomp of his feet, divine power surged into the ground, propelling him upwards. As the earth trembled, his fists swung in rapid succession, as fast as shooting stars. Explosions of energy erupted continuously, each burst of light so bright that the onlookers could not look directly at them.

When Wu Chou's fist struck the Flying Zombie's body, a distant "dong" was heard, like a sledgehammer hitting a steel wall. Before the sound could even spread, a continuous stream of force followed, turning the slow chime into a rapid drumbeat.

With the Flying Zombie's physique, taking one or two punches wouldn't hurt her much, since her defense was stronger than her strength. A single punch could only leave a shallow fist mark on her body. However, dozens or hundreds of punches combined would be too much for her body to bear. She would be twisted and deformed, dented and collapsed, leaving behind fist-shaped marks.

She wanted to retaliate, but her skills were insufficient even against ordinary martial artists, let alone against Si Ming, whose skills had reached a state of perfection. She was almost immediately interrupted as soon as she raised her hand, without even having a chance to strike.

This was also the Flying Zombie's bad luck. Who told her to be humanoid? If it were any other Monster Race with abnormal forms, Si Ming might not have been able to see it so clearly. But zombies are mutated from human bodies, with only minor differences. They are generally the same. Therefore, Si Ming knew every move she made perfectly, and even achieved the effect of prediction.

If they didn't act now, they would be beaten to death, which would be the most humiliating way for Zombie Race to die. Flying Zombie held nothing back, channeling all his power, and his corpse energy transformed into black flames, which exploded with a roar.

"Black Flames Fill the Firmament!"

The Flying Zombie seemed to transform into a black sun, suddenly releasing black flames outward. This was an attack with no blind spots, and Si Ming was unable to dodge it. He was blasted away and fell into the ruins on the ground, but he quickly stood up as if nothing had happened.

"As expected of a foreign martial art, it's quite crude."

Si Ming patted the black flames clinging to his chest and shook them off. This move was devoid of any skill; it was simply a brutal release of power. The greatest threat lay in the potent toxicity of the flames. If he hadn't possessed the Blazing Sun True Qi, he would likely have been corroded into a zombie-like state in an instant.

"Speaking of martial arts from other races, it reminds me of a Cultivation Method that might be very suitable for me right now."

Si Ming revealed a thoughtful expression. His current strength was too great, and it was a single-attribute strength, which rendered most martial arts meaningless. It was more effective to simply throw a punch. However, he suddenly remembered the Demon Race art "Sea-Upholding Demon Dragon Art" that he had obtained in Russia. This martial art was specially created for the physically strong Demon Race, which was just right for him to use now.

He learned so many martial arts techniques that he found it difficult to recall those he didn't usually use during battles. This was a problem that Yan Jinghong had worried about before—too many choices can sometimes be a problem.

Seeing that the black flames had no effect, Flying Zombie's expression grew even more grim—though it was impossible to tell—but she didn't think she had no chance of winning, even if her opponent had only used 45% of their power.

"I must admit, you are indeed the strongest Human Race I have ever seen in my life. However, don't think you have victory in your grasp. Through our exchange just now, I have discovered that only your strength has increased by two times; other aspects have not improved."

The improvement of Flying Zombie's skill from 30% to 90% is an enhancement of his Cultivation Body, involving all aspects of his physical qualities. Although it doesn't triple his speed, it does significantly increase it. Si Ming's improvement, on the other hand, is only reflected in his strength, because the Divine Sight Illusory Observation Art can only triple one ability: strength, speed, or defense. He can only choose one.

Si Ming didn't seem to mind, saying, "You noticed that, but don't worry, the upcoming improvement will be comprehensive and won't disappoint you."

Although the Solar Prominence Eruption only doubles the power, its enhancement effect involves various aspects and is not limited to a single strength attribute. However, compared to the Divine Sight Illusory Observation Art, which can last for a long time and even last the entire battle, the Solar Prominence Eruption can only last for two or three minutes. Once the True Qi energy is exhausted, it will become ineffective and will also have the aftereffect of emptying the Qi Sea.

"To be honest, even in my current state, I'm confident I can defeat you if I use the right martial arts techniques. After all, your skill level isn't much different from a novice apprentice. But to prove I wasn't lying, and to make you accept your defeat wholeheartedly, I'll show you ninety percent of my power!"

The next moment, golden light shot straight into the sky, and the wind and clouds changed color in an instant. Si Ming was enveloped in the explosive golden aura. The power, far exceeding the limit, spread outwards because it could not be controlled. The huge airflow pushed the upper bodies of the onlookers backwards, almost knocking them to the ground.

At this moment, Flying Zombie finally experienced a feeling she hadn't felt in a long time—a feeling called fear, which made her hands tremble uncontrollably.

Si Ming raised his hand and said, "Come on, you have one minute left to live."

Chapter 346 Six Paths Six Paths Temple

A violent power emanated from Si Ming; even a blind man could feel this ever-expanding aura, as if a demon god had descended upon the world.

Eastern martial artists emphasize precise control of power and pursue a state of returning to simplicity. A martial artist who cannot even control his own aura will inevitably be ridiculed by his peers. But when someone is as powerful as Si Ming, no one can utter a word of ridicule. Just feeling the residual power emanating from him is enough to make one feel suffocated.

"It can actually be improved further..."

Flying Zombie's stiff face revealed no expression, but her hesitant tone betrayed her inner turmoil. She quickly retorted, "Trying to create a spectacle, thinking you can fool me with some show of force?"

She pushed her hands forward, and the dark, corpse-like energy surged forth like a swarm of insects, devouring all life. Then she leaped into the air, unleashing Cultivation Body full power, Power of Anomalies that distorted the order of the human world. Around her, she condensed clusters of black, liquid-like flames, emanating an aura of darkness that did not belong to this world.

Faced with the overwhelming force, Si Ming scoffed, "You speak so confidently, yet you still dare not engage in close combat to verify your claims."

He rubbed his palms together to form a blade, then cleaved out a True Yang Vermilion Blaze Saber. In his current state, the energy he unleashed reached a height of twenty meters. The pure yang energy swept away the yin atmosphere, cleaving through the tide of corpse energy in the center. He then charged straight into the passage he had created.

"Netherfire Immersion!"

The pitch-black flames surged down like a torrent, and the Flying Zombie took the opportunity to blend in, concealing their presence as if waiting for a chance to launch a sneak attack.

Si Ming neither dodged nor evaded, recalling the contents of the "Sea-Upholding Demon Dragon Art" in his mind. As his True Qi circulated, a fierce and chaotic aura naturally emanated from him, and a colossal figure immediately appeared behind him.

"Dragon Whale Raises a Hundred Tides!"

The immense fist force, like a raging dragon whale, stirred up the four seas, rushing against the current of the dark flames. With a fierce impact, it scattered the fire stream, causing it to sway and fall down.

"I knew you'd try to escape under the guise of this; leave something behind as a souvenir!"

Si Ming suddenly swung his palm back, and the huge dragon whale phantom swung its tail at the same time. There was a loud bang, like gunpowder exploding on a mountain. The Flying Zombie was forced out of its invisibility, half of its body cracked, and its right forearm was smashed to pieces.

"My name Zhu Mei, human, I will remember you."

The Flying Zombie used the momentum to escape, quickly transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the horizon, leaving only a sentence that drifted slowly on the wind.

"Tch, next time I'll bring my Profound Armor, and you won't even be able to escape."

Knowing he couldn't catch up, Si Ming gave up. He could only briefly take to the air, but he didn't have the ability to fly with his physical body. However, he couldn't help feeling a little regretful. This person was even stronger than the Crimson Shadow King. If he could use the Blazing Sun True Qi to devour her essence, Si Ming felt that his Internal Cultivation would rise two levels in one go without any problem.

After the golden light dissipated, Si Ming looked around. The ground was covered in ruins and in complete disarray. He could only bow to the prefect and say, "I apologize for leaving your residence in this state."
