Xuanli at a Dead End

Xuanli no longer resisted, and the remaining body turned into a white light and rushed towards the mountain gate.

The speed was not slow, almost burning the remaining Devil Qi and running for its life. The white ash dragged a long tail, like a pale meteor.

Qin Tiexin is faster than him.

He stepped on the ground with both feet, and the stone slabs under his feet shattered into cobwebs. The cracks spread in all directions, and the gravel collapsed and was blown away by the strong wind he brought.

He cut it diagonally, like a knife inserted from the side, firmly blocking the front of the mountain gate.

The tip of the knife points forward, the blade murmurs softly, and the dark golden Qi Gang swims back and forth on the blade.

Xuanli stopped suddenly, shrank back, and hit a broken pillar. The red light in his one eye flashed crazily, and he gasped for breath, like a beast that was forced to a dead end.

"Who are you?" he hissed, his voice full of panic, as if his throat had been torn open, "You were just Qi and Blood Realm just now... how is it possible... how is it possible!"

Qin Tiexin has no answer.

He approached step by step. With each step, there was a clear footprint on the ground. Edgeless was dragged beside him, and the tip of the knife scratched the stone slab, leaving a trail of fine sparks.

Xuanli completely collapsed.

He knew he couldn't run away.

The young man in front of him had all the strength and speed to crush him. No matter how he ran away, it was all in vain. Most of the white bone powder had been scattered, and there were not many Devil Qi left in the bracelet. He never thought that he, a powerful demon king, would be forced to this point by a Foundation Establishment monk after thousands of years of experience.

"You... want me to die?" His one eye suddenly lit up with red light, much brighter than before, as if the last bit of Devil Qi had been gathered into his eyes. The voice suddenly rose in pitch, sharp enough to pierce the eardrum, with a kind of morbid madness.

"Hahahahaha!! Then I will drag you to death together!!!!"

He shouted sharply, and the palm that was holding the bracelet suddenly exerted force. The ten red and black beads trembled wildly with a buzzing sound, Devil Qi, as strong as ink, gushed out from the beads crazily, and penetrated into his broken body.

The white bone powder that was scattered in the ruins before seemed to be pulled by countless invisible threads, rising from the ground, emerging from the cracks in the broken walls, and pouring out from the depths of the rubble. They were densely packed, overwhelming, and converged towards Xuanli from all directions.

The more white bone meal gathers, the more it accumulates.

It first covered his remaining body, and then expanded outward, stacked layer by layer. The powder twisted, compressed, and solidified under the influence of Devil Qi, making a creaking sound.

Although Qin Tiexin doesn't know what he wants to do, under the current circumstances, it's best to stop him!

He rushed forward and slashed with the knife, but Xuanli did not dodge at all, and let the blade cut into the remaining body. A large piece of white powder was cut off, but it was sucked back in an instant. The speed of absorption was far faster than the speed of the blade. One layer was cut off, and two layers came back, and more and more were cut.

The powder finally stopped flowing.

A three-foot-tall white giant stood in front of him.

The giant's face was blurry, with only two dim red lights shining at its eyes. Its entire body was gray and white, and its surface was as rough as sand and gravel, like a giant puppet made of countless bone powder.

On the chest, the bracelet is embedded in white ash, with ten black and red beads beating like a heart, constantly delivering Devil Qi to the whole body. With each beat, the giant's body becomes firmer, and the surface becomes tighter.

The death energy emanated from it, as strong as if you were in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

"You want me to die????" the giant said, his voice squeezed out from his chest, dull and muddy, "Who do you think you are!!!"

Qin Tiexin stopped.

He looked up at the three-foot-tall white giant. There was no fear on his face, but a bit more solemnity.

This thing can no longer be considered a human, not even Devil Cultivator. It is a battle puppet made by Xuanli using the last Devil Qi to gather all the bone powder in a radius of dozens of feet.

There are no meridians, no flesh and blood, and no internal organs. Except for the string of bracelets on the chest and the remaining soul, they are all dead objects.

I have to admit that it is indeed terrifying that this devil can mobilize such power in a desperate situation.

If it rushes out of the mountain gate in this posture, the monks outside are not even qualified to feed it. With a body of three feet, Golden Core Realm's strength, and a body of bone powder that has no sense of pain and no vital points, ordinary Foundation Establishment monks will not be able to sustain even a single move when they encounter it.

But Qin Tiexin won't let it rush out.

He let go of Edgeless and stuck the knife on the ground beside him. He put his hands together and struck each other with their palms, making a crisp sound.

The pool of spiritual liquid in Dantian suddenly surged, and the spiritual power was stirred by the white-gold beads at the bottom, rushing out along the meridians and straight into the ventricle.

In the center of the ventricle, the ball of Fire of Life was doused with spiritual power, and the flames suddenly jumped several times higher. The five-color halo circulated rapidly, like a colorful little sun burning in the chest. The strong light shined through the ventricle, and the Penetration skeletal muscles formed a faint halo around his body.

Arhat Dharma Aspect Body, on.

A golden shadow standing two to five feet tall suddenly stood up from behind him.

The phantom was nearly a foot taller than when it was at the Spirit Taming Sect and at the entrance of the temple. Its entire body was golden, as if it was made of the purest Buddha's light.

The spiritual power of the Meridian Opening Realm and Qi and Blood poured into the Dharma form at the same time, making the phantom solidify to an unprecedented degree. The outline of the Dharma form was clearer than ever before, and even faint facial features appeared on the face.

His eyebrows were lowered, his expression was compassionate and solemn, but upon closer inspection, the outline of his eyebrows looked a bit like Qin Tiexin himself.

This Dharma statue is five feet shorter than the white giant, but its momentum is not weak at all, and it even faintly overpowers him.

The golden Buddha's light and the gray-white death energy collided inside the mountain gate, and the air was squeezed to make a subtle hum.

The giant transformed by Xuanli moved first.

It would not give Qin Tiexin a chance to gather momentum. The huge body leaned forward, raised its left fist, and bone powder quickly gathered on the fist, becoming bigger and bigger.

The fist hit Qin Tiexin with extremely heavy pressure. Before the wind of the fist hit, the gravel on the ground had been blown away, and the broken walls on both sides of the mountain gate were shaking.

Qin Tiexin took a step forward.

Arhat Dharma Manifestation synchronized with him, and the golden fist followed.

Arhat Fist.

The two-foot-five-foot golden Buddha figure punched straight forward. The fist was golden in color, with Sanskrit characters flowing on its surface. The Buddha's light was blazing. The fist tore through the air and collided with Xuanli's giant white fist.

Boom!

There was a loud noise and the entire mountain gate was shaking.

Where the two fists collided, gold and white exploded, and the shock wave spread outward in a circular shape, rolling up white ash all over the sky.

Qin Tiexin The ground beneath his feet was sunken half a foot, and was covered with dense spider web patterns.

But he didn't retreat, and neither did Arhat Dharma Manifestation. The golden fist pressed against the white giant fist, and the two sides struggled. The Buddha's light and the death energy eroded each other, making a hissing and burning sound.

The giant transformed by Xuanli raised his arms, trying to smash Qin Tiexin and his Dharma into the ground. Qin Tiexin let out a low drink, stepped forward with his left foot, and the Dharma's other fist also punched out.

The second punch, Vajra Flame!
