Facing Wang Yin Alone
In the temporary operating room.
The bearded doctor, along with several other doctors, was treating Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen while simultaneously transplanting the Flood Dragon Spiritual Pivot from Bai Zhenzhen to Zhang Yu and restoring Bai Zhenzhen's original spine.
At this moment, Zhang Yu, after taking a large amount of painkillers, remained clear-headed, feeling the various surgical instruments cutting through his body while listening to the telepathic teachings of Spark True Person.
According to Spark True Person, time was of the essence; the next hour and a half was for the surgery, and Zhang Yu had to seize the time to study.
Spark True Person transmitted his voice, saying, "With the Flood Dragon Spiritual Pivot, your Physical Strength will increase by 1.0 Level 0, which can be considered as narrowing the gap between you and Wang Yin in terms of physical strength."
"Furthermore, the Dragon Might Art within the Spiritual Pivot can seal away mental techniques, preventing him from unleashing the most powerful Devouring Heaven and Spiritual Surge techniques from the World-Overturning Heroic Fist."
"But with just these, you still can't beat them."
"His Skin Magic Skeleton was taken from a cultivator with Physical Strength of Level 20 and processed through eighty-one steps. Coupled with the Nether Blood Shadow Cover containing tens of thousands of Living Soul, it is extremely difficult for you to harm him."
"And even if he suffers the slightest injury, his Spirit Root will allow him to recover quickly."
"That Spirit Root is called the Sun Moon Spirit Root, a first-tier Heavenly Spiritual Root that cannot be bought."
"Although he crippled his cultivation and severed the fusion between his Spirit Root and physical body, it wouldn't be difficult for a wealthy person like him to buy another Heavenly Spiritual Root."
"This Spirit Root can convert magical power into Qi and Blood to heal injuries, and it can also convert Qi and Blood into magical power to restore magical power."
"As long as his magic power recovers, his injuries can be healed."
"Even if you can break through the Nether Blood Shadow Cover and his skin, the injuries you suffer will be minor, and he will recover in an instant."
Hearing this, Zhang Yu frowned even more. He had thought that the other party's skin was already a huge obstacle, but he didn't expect that even if he could break through the skin, there was still some kind of Sun Moon Spirit Root.
Zhang Yu said, "Then does that mean I can't beat him?"
Spark True Person smiled slightly and transmitted his voice, "Of course there is a way."
After saying that, he pointed a finger at Zhang Yu's brow. The next moment, Zhang Yu felt a shooting star crash into his sea of consciousness. After swirling around for a while, it finally stopped.
Upon closer inspection, Zhang Yu discovered that it was actually a golden brick.
He asked in confusion, "What is this?"
Spark True Person said, "This is the Law Treasure that Deng Bingding said he wanted to lend you."
"This Law Treasure is called the Soul-Wounding Brick; it is a magical Law Treasure specifically designed to attack the soul."
"If you can use this Law Treasure to injure Wang Yin and break his soul, you can immediately win this battle, and he will have no choice but to go back upstairs to heal his soul."
"But if you use this Soul-Wounding Brick directly, he will definitely block it with his Nether Blood Shadow Cover and that layer of skin, which will make him wary and make it difficult for him to succeed."
"So you need to break through the Nether Blood Shadow Cover and his outer layer of skin first, then use this Soul-Wounding Brick unexpectedly to win."
Listening to what Spark True Person said, Zhang Yu felt like he had gone in circles and come right back to square one. Didn't he still have to break through the opponent's double defenses?
Spark True Person seemed to know what Zhang Yu was thinking, and then transmitted his voice, saying, "Actually, the solution is in your own hands."
"The Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force you have mastered is a top-tier Military-grade Cultivation Method. It can accumulate various kinds of energy and magical power into your Gang Qi. Any Martial Arts in your hands will have its power multiplied."
"It's just that you were using brute force before, and you weren't able to truly unleash the mysteries of this Cultivation Method."
"Since you can strike with multiple attacks and stack several layers of power, why limit yourself to just one?"
"You must understand that the combined and interacting power of different forces is far more powerful and profound than simply using one type of force."
"It's like asking whether a person is more powerful if they only use straight punches, or if they use punches, palm strikes, and grappling techniques all at once?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu felt a sudden rush of inspiration, and a multitude of ingenious ideas immediately flooded his mind.
Seeing the change in his expression, Spark True Person smiled slightly and said, "I already know the flaws in the Nether Blood Shadow Cover and the Skin Magic Skeleton. Now, I will teach you..."
By the time the surgery was complete, Zhang Yu had already figured out how to fight Wang Yin.
Spark True Person transmitted his voice from the side, saying, "I have already told you the fighting method. In the time to come, you should focus on cultivating the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force. Improve it as much as you can, because every little improvement will increase your chances of winning."
"At the same time, this is also an opportunity to get used to the Flood Dragon Spiritual Pivot."
Zhang Yu glanced at Bai Zhenzhen, who was still unconscious, took a deep breath, and then decided to begin practicing the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force.
However, before he began, he thought of something.
Zhang Yu looked at the doctor and said, "Give me the medicine."
The other person asked in confusion, "What medicine?"
Zhang Yu said, "Any medicine will do, the stronger the toxicity, the better."
After consuming a batch of medicines given by the doctor, Zhang Yu felt the surging magical power and Qi and Blood throughout his body before he began cultivating the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force.
This Cultivation Method consists of only three moves, and Zhang Yu can practice it once in about ten seconds on average.
Especially knowing that he needed to seize the moment, he didn't pay attention to the proper flow of power or the standard of his posture. He only focused on speed and made sure to practice several times before the battle.
During this practice, Zhang Yu felt the Flood Dragon Spiritual Pivot mobilize the major tendons throughout his body, enhancing his strength and raising his Physical Strength by one level.
At this moment, his punches and kicks unleashed power far exceeding what he had before, and he gradually adapted to the Dharma Skeleton.
At the same time, this Dharma Skeleton was constantly draining Zhang Yu's magical power. If it weren't for the support of his Qi Sea Spiritual Root, he probably wouldn't have been able to fight for more than ten minutes before the Dharma Skeleton exhausted his magical power.
With this frantic practice, the level of the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force continued to improve.
I went from level 5 to level 6, then to level 7... level 8...
With each improvement, and with each surge of cultivation memories flooding his mind, Zhang Yu silently digested them, continuing to practice in the fastest, most effortless, and most perfunctory way, completely disregarding the quality of each practice session.
"Time is up."
As Wang Yin sent someone to remind him, Zhang Yu stopped what he was doing and asked, "Is there any medicine left?"
Several staff members quickly came over and said, "Mr. Zhang! Let us help you equip yourself with protective gear."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu's heart skipped a beat. He wondered if Deng Bingding had allocated funds to purchase the armor, perhaps to increase his chances of winning.
The group of people then began to stick small advertising posters, one after another, onto Zhang Yu's body.
Zhang Yu smirked and said, "This is the protective gear?"
The staff member displaying the small posters explained, "These are combat posters specifically designed for battles between strong individuals. To prevent the posters from being damaged or destroyed in combat, the advertising company specially manufactured these fireproof, freezeproof, acidproof, and puncture-proof combat posters. Wearing them is even more effective than wearing combat suits."
"Damn it... an advertising poster is more defensive than a combat suit, huh?"
Zhang Yu rolled his eyes inwardly upon hearing this and reminded him, "Put several more layers on my chest."
"And don't forget the inner thighs either."
At the same time, several staff members approached and said, "Mr. Zhang, this is the advertising script you'll be reading next." Looking at the medicine and the script they brought, Zhang Yu's eyes lit up. "Is the live stream of this battle going viral?"
The other party nodded repeatedly and said, "Oasis Group has been actively promoting it, and now our live stream channel has the highest number of viewers!"
"Here is the advertising contract. Please take a look and sign it if everything is okay."
Zhang Yu signed quickly, watching the money flash before his eyes. In the blink of an eye, he had nearly ten million more. He thought to himself, "This money is really easy to make."
After completing all the battle preparations, Zhang Yu slowly walked towards the battlefield.
Behind Zhang Yu, a hint of worry flashed in Spark True Person's eyes.
"Why were all these mistakes in his movements when he was practicing? More than an hour has passed and we still can't see any progress?"
"Is it because he's too nervous? Or is the Flood Dragon Spiritual Pivot not yet adapted?"
Zhang Yu looked at the Level 11 Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force on the Feather Scroll, and a surge of confidence suddenly welled up in his heart.
The level 11 Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force not only allows him to open up 11 Void Aperture in his Gang Qi, storing the power of 11 strikes, but also possesses Level 10 special effects.
"After reaching Level 10 the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force, one can not only accumulate one's own power, but each Void Aperture can also accumulate the power of an opponent's attack."
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
Now that he had quickly raised the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force to level 11, Zhang Yu remembered the changes in the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra in his mind.
As he walked toward the agreed-upon battlefield, he looked at the Remnant Ox in his meditation and noticed that the bloodstains on the white ox's back formed lines of writing, which seemed to be a few Mnemonic.
"What's the meaning?"
Just as Zhang Yu was repeatedly trying to understand the meaning of the Mnemonic, a series of wails and screams came from ahead.
Wang Yin was surrounded by thousands of blood shadows. He said calmly, "I used the money I earned in just one and a half hours to buy the Living Soul of over ten thousand mortals."
"These mortals have no cultivation, are foolish and ignorant; their souls are the most valuable thing they possess."
"Rather than let it rot in one layer, let it shine brightly in my hands..."
Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. He looked up and around, and sure enough, he saw countless cameras of all sizes, all pointed in the direction of the battlefield. He didn't know how many places were broadcasting live at that moment.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Giving him a live broadcast will increase his prestige, promote the acquisition and sale of 'Living Soul,' a fast-moving consumer good, and facilitate the advancement of the next plan."
"And the live streams on the Second Layer and above are probably for promoting the purchasing power and cost-effectiveness of the people below, hoping to get more people upstairs to support the renovation of the first floor, right?"
"Or... how about promoting the effectiveness of my 'product'?"
At the same time, Zhang Yu could also notice that every time a camera swept across the surroundings, the expressions of the Oasis Group staff would change.
Some people quickly dodged to the side, thinking to themselves, "Damn it, don't take pictures of me! What if I catch the eye of some big shot?"
Some people leaned closer to the camera, thinking hopefully, "It's just selling your body, right? They're giving you Spirit Coin. As long as you offer a fair price, you can definitely make a profit!"
Meanwhile, Wang Yin continued, "The process of raising mortals is incredibly simple, requiring almost no resources from the immortal Immortal Dao."
"Our group has decided to promote the Immortal Dao Cultivation Technology on the first floor, establish People Farming Field, and carry out large-scale, mass cultivation."
"We must completely destroy the price of ordinary people!"
Listening to the other party's incessant sales pitch, Zhang Yu snorted coldly, took out a bottle of medicine and drank it, then said in the same tone, "Bailing Pharmaceuticals, everything works, your personal medicine manager..."
Meanwhile, Yu Xinghan, who was watching the live stream, cursed, "Are you kidding me? He's been reciting for five minutes and hasn't stopped yet. How much money has this kid made?"
Just then, the scene changed, and Yu Xinghan's gaze sharpened. "It's finally starting."
Zhang Yu took steps forward, walking faster and faster until he was sprinting, rapidly approaching Wang Yin, who was still reciting advertising slogans.
"What business is it of mine if you haven't finished speaking?"
"I don't have time to wait for you!"
The Flood Dragon Spiritual Pivot on Zhang Yu's back twisted, like a great dragon stretching its body, causing his physical body to burst with surging power, increasing his sprint speed by another three points.
A surge of powerful Gang Qi erupted from his body, leaving a long trail on the battlefield as he charged forward. At this moment, Zhang Yu resembled a white Giant Dragon, its jaws wide open, ready to devour Wang Yin.
At the same time, Zhang Yu let out a roar, Dragon Might Art in the Flood Dragon Spiritual Pivot was suddenly activated, sweeping across a radius of 100 meters.
Faced with the overwhelming Dragon Might Art, Wang Yin was prepared and did not activate his mental cultivation method at all. Although his mind was shaken and stiffened for a moment, it did not worsen the dizziness caused by the forced cessation of his mental cultivation method.
Although there are Dharma Skeleton capable of resisting the Dragon Might Art, Wang Yin has now crippled his cultivation, and the Skin Magic Skeleton he currently possesses are already at their limit, unable to support a second Dharma Skeleton.
Therefore, he preferred not to circulate the mental cultivation technique.
"Although the Heaven Devouring Stance and Spirit Surge Stance, which require mental cultivation techniques, are unusable, it's no longer possible to monopolize Spiritual Energy."
"But the World-Overturning Heroic Fist doesn't necessarily need to be paired with a mental cultivation method."
Wang Yin slightly bent his right arm, his hand forming a fist, and surging magical power was already converging towards his right fist.
World-Overturning Heroic Fist – Earth-Crushing Stance!
With a deafening roar, accompanied by a surge of magical power, Wang Yin's punch caused a Spiritual Energy explosion.
Then, as if a chain reaction had occurred, the surrounding Spiritual Energy exploded in succession, all heading towards Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu let out a low shout and immediately activated the Overload of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo and the 'Zen' burst of the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen.
In addition, the surging medicinal power from the previous ingestion was surging back and forth, and the Flood Dragon Spiritual Pivot was mobilizing all the power in the body at the spine.
Zhang Yu instantly reached an unprecedented peak state.
He unleashed both palms simultaneously, sometimes punching, sometimes striking, sometimes blocking, sometimes stirring... a variety of Martial Dao techniques were casually displayed along with the Formless Cloud Gang, deflecting Wang Yin's fist attacks one by one.
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Each strike repelled the surging explosion of Spiritual Energy.
Zhang Yu was also certain. "After Wang Yin's mental cultivation technique was banned, the power of his fist techniques was indeed greatly reduced."
Zhang Yu tore through his opponent's fists, charging towards him like a raging dragon.
Their gazes met through the Nether Blood Shadow Cover, and their intense fighting spirit seemed to collide in the air, erupting in a silent roar.
Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force - 11-hit combo!
On the other side, Wang Yin sneered inwardly, "Without a cultivation technique, the ranged attack power of the World-Overturning Heroic Fist weakens too much. It really does have the greatest power at close range."
He formed a fist seal with both hands, and his Movement Method.
World-Overturning Heroic Fist – Heaven-Tilting Stance!
