My Qilin Arm Was Already Beginning to Burn! (Double-Length Chapter)
Song Shuhang was quite lucky; when his Mouth Aperture opened, he awakened a talent within one of Mouth Aperture!
When the four acupoints of eyes, nose, ears, and mouth are opened, each cultivator can obtain at least one talent, and the lucky ones can obtain two acupoint talents. If the obtained talent ability is good, it can be used for a lifetime.
Like the Eye Aperture, the Mouth Aperture also a gifted organ, with many different kinds of talents. These include the Lotus-Blossom Tongue, to Lip-Spear Tongue-Sword tongues, to generate offensive sound waves, and even to shoot divine light from the mouth to kill enemies.
Song Shuhang's Mouth Aperture Talent is a rather special type, belonging to the sound Mouth Aperture Talent category— Phantom Voice.
By stimulating sound, one can induce hallucinations in those who hear it.
"Roar~~" As Song Shuhang roared for the last time with his <Lion's Roar Technique>, he automatically added his innate talent 'Phantom Voice'.
The lion's roar was like rolling thunder, carrying hallucinogenic power.
Directly below, the woman in the black dress, Chu Chu, along with Whale Eight and Shark Nine, were all affected by the Lion's Roar Technique and the Phantom Voice.
The Chu Chu the black dress, already in a semi-conscious state, was further affected by the Phantom Voice, as if she saw a scene unfolding on the road to the Yellow Springs. Was she about to die?
Whale Eight and Shark Nine felt a sudden dizziness, and their vision seemed to be filled with chaotic images like a 'carousel'.
This is because Song Shuhang's Mouth Aperture Talent has just been unlocked, and he cannot master the 'Phantom Voice' talent well, so it is not very effective for those with strong willpower.
However, when combined with the Lion's Roar Technique, the Phantom Voice can even affect cultivators at the Second-Grade rank, making this Mouth Aperture Talent highly practical.
In a life-or-death battle, if Song Shuhang were to unleash a Lion's Roar Technique roar using his Phantom Voice combined with the Lion's Roar Technique, it might just be the deciding factor in the outcome of the battle.
A moment later, the lion's roar stopped, and the Phantom Voice effect disappeared.
Chu Chu looked up at the sky with a dazed expression. "It's not an illusion, there really are whales flying in the sky?"
Whale Eight and Shark Nine shook their heads vigorously, their internal energy surging, breaking the effects of the Phantom Voice. They also raised their heads and looked up at the sky.
Then, both of them felt a sudden chill run down their spines.
They spotted the giant whale that had descended from the sky at first glance. Both of them were Second-Stage True Master with exceptional eyesight, and they immediately saw the wooden sword under the whale's belly.
The wooden sword may look simple, but it is imbued with powerful Sword Intent energy and unparalleled sharpness.
Sword Flight?
Could this be a giant whale demon, and one that has mastered the art of Sword Flight?
At that moment, the two had no time to think and swam forward as fast as they could—regardless of what kind of whale had fallen from the sky, it seemed that it was about to plunge into the sea.
The two of them were directly beneath it; if they didn't run, were they just going to wait to be crushed by its massive body?
Thanks to the giant whale, Whale Eight's grip on Chu Chu loosened considerably, preventing Chu Chu from being completely crushed and allowing her to catch her breath.
After blinking.
Accelerated by the 'Single-Use Flying Sword 004 Edition', the whale crashed into the sea before Song Shuhang.
"Moo~ Moo moo moo~" the whale cried out in panic.
Bang! Boom! Splashes of water erupted, and the waves rippled outwards in all directions.
If it weren't for the 'Disposable Flying Sword' and the 'Levitation Spell' that Venerable White had previously applied to it as a buffer, the giant whale would have been smashed to pieces when it hit the water.
Then, Song Shuhang's figure also crashed into the water.
"Azure Wind Acceleration!" Just before falling into the water, Song Shuhang quickly activated his "Azure Wind Acceleration" talisman.
A wisp of blue breeze appeared around him, enveloping his body. With the buoyancy created by this breeze, Song Shuhang's descent slowed, and finally, he landed steadily in the sea.
The Azure Wind Acceleration Talisman had already been used three times by Song Shuhang on Heavenly Island, completely depleting its energy. The reason it can be used again now is because a whole day has passed since Song Shuhang last used Azure Wind Acceleration.
Today is Monday, July 15, 2019.
"Safe landing! I'm lucky to have survived again today." At this moment, Song Shuhang emerged from the water, wiped the seawater off his face, and his eyes were slightly moist.
It's so good to be alive...
After the giant whale that fell with Song Shuhang plunged into the ocean, it flicked its tail and dived into the depths of the sea without hesitation. It felt that it needed to be alone in the deep sea to have some peace and quiet... and it instinctively felt that it should surface less often in the future.
After the giant whale disappeared, a wooden sword floated on the water and drifted to Song Shuhang's side.
Shuhang casually picked up the wooden sword. "Huh, Single-Use Flying Sword 004 Edition?"
He was very familiar with the design of this wooden sword.
It's Senior White!
Could it be that Senior White sent this whale to him?
He gently touched his wrist, where there were coordinates for the 'Myriad-Mile Escape Technique'. This meant that Senior White should be arriving soon, right?
After a moment's thought, Song Shuhang hung the 'Single-Use Flying Sword 004' version on his waist.
The waves created when the whale fell into the water finally subsided.
After the sea calmed down, Song Shuhang saw three figures not far from him.
A gloomy man with shark teeth.
A tall man with a silly smile on his face.
There was also a woman in a black dress struggling desperately as she was held tightly in the arms of a tall man...
What a bizarre combination.
It looks like two grown men are going to bully a frail woman?
However, Song Shuhang soon sensed that the three people in front of him were all faintly emitting true qi fluctuations. At this time, Song Shuhang had already Mouth Aperture and was at the peak of the First-Grade, about to enter the level of Dragon Gate Leap. He could already faintly sense the true qi fluctuations around the cultivators at the Second-Stage True Master level.
The three people before him were all Second-Stage True Master.
In comparison, Song Shuhang was the most 'vulnerable' person present.
When did cultivators become so common? I just randomly landed from the sky and encountered three cultivators?
Was he deliberately sent to this location when he came out of the Mysterious Island?
Regardless of whether the other party was friend or foe, Song Shuhang carefully grabbed a Talisman Treasure from his pocket; this was the last 'Sword Talisman'.
At the same time, he gripped the Overlord Shatter Saber, with his other hand. Apart from Talisman Treasure, in his current memory, only the 'Flame Blade' attached to the Ancient Copper Ring could harm Second-Grade Cultivator.
While Song Shuhang was observing the other party, the other party was also observing Song Shuhang.
Shark Nine immediately recognized Song Shuhang's cultivation level. "First-Grade Cultivator."
"We can't afford any unnecessary complications," Whale Eight said slowly, then paused before adding, "So let's kill him."
Damn, what kind of logic is this? If we can't afford to cause any trouble, shouldn't we at least have a few words exchanged peacefully and part ways amicably?
Before Song Shuhang could even utter his complaint, Shark Nine grinned maliciously and pounced on him, striking Song Shuhang's chest with his right palm.
A cruel smile appeared on Shark Nine's lips, his sharp teeth sending chills down one's spine—it would hurt a lot if he bit you.
They exuded a murderous aura; their first move was a deadly strike.
"A vicious and ruthless scoundrel?" Song Shuhang sighed inwardly, raising the hand holding the 'Sword Talisman' to face Shark Nine, and pressing his fingers on the Sword Talisman to activate the array.
Shark Nine's tiny pupils suddenly contracted.
Bang!
Shark Nine, who was originally charging towards Song Shuhang, slammed his hands hard against the water's surface, using the force of the impact to quickly retreat.
Then, he looked at Song Shuhang warily. The moment he approached Song Shuhang, he felt a terrible sense of danger from the other man.
Finally, his gaze fell on Song Shuhang's hand.
Talisman Treasure?!
What could make him feel a life-or-death crisis? Was it an attack Talisman Treasure of Third-Grade or higher?
They can casually pull out attack Talisman Treasure of Third-Grade or higher... that's a tough one.
Shark Nine licked his lips, but as long as he took down this guy, the rewards would definitely be plentiful. His small eyes were fixed on Song Shuhang, waiting for the right moment to strike.
"Sword!" Song Shuhang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he activated the 'Sword Talisman' without hesitation.
Although Shark Nine retreated swiftly, he remained within the attack range of the Sword Talisman! Therefore, Shuhang naturally wouldn't hold back.
The Sword Talisman was activated, and a phantom figure appeared behind Song Shuhang. The figure stood proudly, looking down at Shark Nine and Whale Eight.
Whale Eight and Shark Nine immediately felt immense pressure, their bodies like frogs being stared at by a snake, afraid to move.
"Shark Nine, get out of the way!" Whale Eight shouted.
But it was too late.
The figure behind Song Shuhang used his finger as a sword, and following Shuhang's will, slashed at Shark Nine.
A dazzling sword light erupted, firmly locking onto Shark Nine.
In Shark Nine's eyes, only this one sword remained in the world; nothing else was visible.
The terrifying sword energy told Shark Nine that if he were struck by it, he would either die or lose half his life.
Without hesitation, Shark Nine desperately darted to the bottom of the water. At the same time, he pounded his palms in the sea, sending nearly thirty sharks flying from his hands to meet the sword light.
However, the sword light flashed by in an instant, and the thirty water sharks couldn't even touch it. The water sharks simply rushed towards the void in vain, and eventually, without the support of true energy, they dissipated and turned back into seawater.
The sword light pierced through the thick sea surface in an instant and struck Shark Nine.
"Ugh..." Shark Nine screamed in agony, spitting out a string of foam, its blood staining the sea red.
Finally, after struggling a few times, he sank to the bottom of the sea, his fate unknown.
"Talisman Treasure." Whale Eight's face darkened as he stared at Song Shuhang.
In life-or-death battles between cultivators, it's not just about who has the greater strength, but also who has the better equipment. First-Grade Cultivator wielding a powerful Talisman Treasure can still kill Second-Grade Cultivator.
In fact, it wasn't just a simple matter of taking down Second-Grade Cultivator. When Song Shuhang was wielding Senior White's treasure, he even managed to kill a Fourth-Grade Cultivator.
"Hehe." Song Shuhang responded with a gentle smile, then calmly took out a Talisman Treasure from his pocket and pointed it at Whale Eight: "That's right, it's Talisman Treasure, don't you think?"
He wore a nouveau riche smile, and the Talisman Treasure in his hand also faintly emanated Third-Grade- grade aura—"You disagree? Go ahead and do it!"
Whale Eight was as still as water, staring intently at Song Shuhang.
Song Shuhang narrowed his eyes and shook the Talisman Treasure at Whale Eight again. "Let go of the girl in your arms, or I'll let you experience the power of my Talisman Treasure. Let me tell you, I have several more similar Talisman Treasure!"
Although... these several Talisman Treasure are all damn 'Evil-Repelling Talisman'.
Song Shuhang's target was the woman in the black dress being held by Whale Eight.
The woman in the black dress was also Second-Grade master. If Whale Eight really released her, Song Shuhang's Ancient Copper Ring's Healing Spell might be able to restore her combat power. At that time, the woman in the black dress would be Second-Stage True Master, and with Song Shuhang's assistance, she would be able to confront Whale Eight head-on.
This was the plan in Song Shuhang's mind.
Unfortunately, life is full of disappointments.
Whale Eight gritted his teeth but did not let go of Chu Chu. Instead, he tensed his arm muscles and hugged Chu Chu tightly, squeezing her close.
A series of sharp, teeth-grinding sounds rang out.
"Sizzle..." Chu Chu spat out blood, several of her ribs were broken. Her internal injuries were even more severe, as Whale Eight's true energy surged wildly within her body, damaging her meridians.
Chu Chu's vision went black instantly, and she completely fainted; the difference in strength between the two sides was too great.
"You're asking for it!" Song Shuhang roared.
"Heh heh, what's there to be afraid of about death?" Whale Eight sneered. "Who do you think I am? I'm the team's Ace Whale Eight. Even if I die, I'll complete the mission first. The mission is more important than my life."
Crack! Crack! Crack! The girl in the black dress in Whale Eight's arms had already been squashed flat by Whale Eight's thick arms.
Her blood sprayed all over Whale Eight.
"Hahahaha!" Whale Eight let out a morbid laugh. He enjoyed the feeling, the feeling of squeezing the petite girl to death in his loving embrace. This wonderful feeling made him unable to stop.
Three breaths later, the woman in the black dress in his arms stopped breathing... Whale Eight threw her into the sea like trash.
Chu Chu's blood stained the sea surface red as her body slowly sank to the bottom of the ocean—like Shark Nine, her fate unknown.
Whale Eight licked the blood off his face, grinning maliciously at Song Shuhang: "Heh heh, what's wrong, little guy? Aren't you going to take this opportunity to use this Talisman Treasure to kill me?"
Song Shuhang Overlord Shatter Saber, tightly, remaining silent.
"Or... is this Talisman Treasure you have not been used for attack?" Whale Eight laughed maniacally, "Then what kind of Talisman Treasure is it? Let me try it out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Whale Eight's massive body leaped onto the surface of the water.
The next moment, he actually used a lightness-body technique to Water-Treading water and rushed towards Song Shuhang.
Boom! Boom! Boom! It was like a bulldozer crashing down.
Song Shuhang sighed inwardly and put away the 'Evil-Repelling Talisman' he had used to threaten them. The other party was not Ghost Cultivator, Evil-Repelling Talisman had no effect.
Then, he too leaped onto the water. He used the "Gentleman Travels Ten Thousand Miles" technique, and the "Azure Wind Acceleration" effect on his body had not yet dissipated, allowing him to also perform the action of running wildly on the sea.
Instead of running away, he charged towards Whale Eight, flicking his wrist to activate the 'Flame Blade' skill on his Ancient Copper Ring.
With a whoosh, flames roared up from the blade.
Even without the Sword Talisman and Armor Talisman, Song Shuhang was no longer a novice cultivator who could be easily slaughtered.
Moreover, the Overlord Shatter Saber, is three feet and three inches long and was forged from heavy gold from the Thunder Pool. It is extremely yang and strong—capable of slicing through the flesh of Fourth-Grade Cultivator.
If he were to strike once, even this big guy wouldn't have an easy time.
"Flame Blade, that's just a common sword technique, it can't hurt me." Whale Eight grinned maliciously, showing no fear of the flames on Song Shuhang's blade. He clenched his right fist, which was covered by a gauntlet made of fine steel, engraved with a large gemstone. Clearly, it was not an ordinary gauntlet, but a magical artifact.
"Giant Whale Jet!" Whale Eight swung his fist fiercely, his true energy erupting, and a phantom image of a whale appeared on his fist.
Then, he bent down and threw a punch at the Flame Blade —he was so tall that he had to bend over to hit Song Shuhang, which was exhausting.
When!
As the Flame Blade collided with Whale Eight's fist, Song Shuhang felt an immense force emanating from the blade, instantly shattering the flames on it.
Song Shuhang's tiger's mouth was torn open, bleeding profusely, and he almost lost his grip on the Overlord Shatter Saber!
But this was only the first contact between fists and knives.
Following closely behind was the phantom of a giant Whale Eight- fisted whale, a fist shadow formed from true energy. After breaking through the Flame Blade energy, it slammed towards Song Shuhang's chest.
Bang!
Song Shuhang was sent flying by the force of the punch and fell into the water some distance away.
"Hiss." The wound stung terribly when it came into contact with the seawater.
On Song Shuhang's chest, a Golden Buckler shattered.
That final punch was barely blocked thanks to the Spirit Ghost's innate skill, the Golden Buckler... Since losing the Armor Talisman, this Spirit Ghost has saved Song Shuhang's life several times.
"A normal Second-Stage True Master is actually this terrifying," Song Shuhang murmured. How lucky was he to have been able to kill the weakened Altar Master back then?
The gap between himself and Second-Stage True Master is enormous, especially in terms of Blood Qi and qi and true qi, which is like the difference between water and ice. Blood Qi and qi cannot withstand true qi at all. Once the two come into contact, Blood Qi and qi are easily pierced by true qi, just as water in its normal state cannot stop an ice pillar from penetrating.
"Weak, too weak." Whale Eight sneered, "Then let me send you on your way with a loving embrace. Come, let me hug you, and with that wonderful crunching sound, let me send you to your next reincarnation."
"No, I don't want to die from being hugged by a grown man. At least let me have a beautiful woman instead," Song Shuhang said, raising his head and grinning.
His eyes were calm, without a trace of fear.
"Hehehe, the weak have no choice." Whale Eight grinned as he approached Song Shuhang —but he was still on high alert. This kid looked so calm; he might pull out something strange again, so he had to be careful.
"What you say makes sense. The weak have no choice—then open your eyes wide and watch closely, I'll show you my true skills." Song Shuhang rolled up his sleeves, revealing a logo on them. "My Qilin Arm is already getting warm!"
"Qilin Arm?" Whale Eight stared at Song Shuhang's arm.
On her slender arms and legs, whiter than a little girl's, was a three-dimensional Calabash Brothers pattern?
It's the Calabash Brothers! This image evoked some fond memories of Whale Eight from over twenty years ago.
But what does this pattern have to do with Qilin Arm?
As he was pondering this, he saw the Calabash Brothers pattern on Song Shuhang's arm glow with a faint red light.
"Taste the bitterness of despair!" Song Shuhang said in a deep voice, his face unfathomable. "Then, take a good look at this beautiful world, because... this may very well be the last time you appreciate its beauty."
Damn it... it's really not easy to stall for time. Fortunately, the time is finally almost up.
His ultimate skill is about to be unleashed—[Ding~~ Your friend, Venerable White, has logged on.]
******************************
On the other side.
The Venerable White held the little monk in one hand and Doudou in the other. He was enveloped in the glow of the 'Myriad-Mile Escape Technique'. Location: Song Shuhang, somewhere in the Eastern Sea.
Upon realizing that Song Shuhang had returned from the Mysterious Island, Venerable White did not hesitate to use his Myriad-Mile Escape Technique to rush towards Song Shuhang.
The Venerable White flew on and on with the 'Myriad-Mile Escape Technique,' but he felt a little bored.
"Why not take this opportunity to go into seclusion?" Venerable White thought to himself.
But then I thought about it, and seeing that I was still holding Doudou and the little monk in my hands, I decided against it. If I went into seclusion, I wouldn't be able to take care of these two.
So, with a thought, White Venerable extended six arms from behind him. This was a supernatural power he had cultivated after advancing to the Venerable: the [Eight-Armed Dharma Form].
Of the six extra arms, two took out cell phones from their pockets, and Venerable White swiped on them.
But it seems there's no signal.
The Venerable White remained unperturbed. He reached into the large-screen phone case and pulled out an antenna-like object.
The next moment, his phone got a signal.
This is a phone that Venerable White secretly modified seventy times before finally succeeding. Although it looks no different from an ordinary large-screen phone on the outside, a lot of things inside have been changed.
Venerable White logged into the Nine Provinces Number One Group and swiped.
Today, the Medicine Master logged on and sent a few messages. "@Su Clan’s Seven, Fellow A-Qi, are you still causing trouble for the Limitless Demon Sect? Have you destroyed a few branches yet?"
Su Clan’s Seven: "A few days ago, I obtained information about a branch leader-level disciple of the Limitless Demon Sect from my young friend Song Shuhang. I finally managed to extract some useful information from him. I'm just about to go and take over another branch."
Medicine Master: "That would be great. If you have time, could you capture a few dozen disciples from the Limitless Demon Sect for me, at the Second-Grade to Third-Grade rank? I need to use them for some experiments to see if there's any way to unlock the memories that Three Waves others had sealed on the Mysterious Island. --PS: Jiang Ziyan is typing this for me." Ziyan, being mischievous again.
Su Clan’s Seven: "[Sweating profusely emoji], Medicine Master, you must be joking. It's already quite good if a branch of the Limitless Demon Sect can get ten second or Third-Grade disciples. And capturing them all alive is no easy feat."
Medicine Master: "What a jerk. Fine, I'll take as many as you have. Also, fellow cultivators in the group, if you encounter any blind enemy cultivators, as long as they're at the Second-Grade or Third-Grade Realm, don't kill them. Leave them alive and capture them for me; they're precious."
Master Profound Principle sent a monk chanting sutra emoji, followed by a nodding emoji.
The Medicine Master said, "I understand. Monks are compassionate. I'm just trying to help you reduce the amount of killing you commit."
Master Profound Principle: "[Thumbs up emoji]"
Venerable White: "[Smiling emoji] Received. If you come across one, grab it. Also, Fellow Daoist A-Qi, I have a clue about the 'Limitless Demon Sect'. If there's an opportunity, I'd like to cooperate with your Heavenly River Su Clan."
After sending the message, Venerable White put away his phone.
The Myriad-Mile Escape Technique is coming soon.
