227: Bai Zang, kill Tian Lingzi!
There was a full Spirit Transformation Realm between the Peak Body Storage Realm and the Early Stage Flying Heaven Realm.
The gap between them was undeniable.
However... a typical Martial Artist at the Peak Body Storage Realm would only have about one million points of Blood Qi.
Some Heaven-Defying individuals might be able to increase their Blood Qi to several million, but aside from people like Old Man Nine Stars, who also unlocked all of the Human Body Treasure Trove but were not recorded in history.
No one had ever been born with Blood Qi exceeding ten million.
Only Lu Sheng.
Ten million Blood Qi, with the enhancement of the Heaven and Earth Hammer, was enough for Lu Sheng to kill any Martial Artist below the Late Stage Spirit Transformation.
And twenty million Blood Qi was even enough for Lu Sheng to kill any Martial Artist in the Spirit Transformation Realm.
But trying to kill Tian Lingzi, or even injure Tian Lingzi, seemed a bit insufficient.
But... Lu Sheng's current Blood Qi had reached a terrifying forty million!
What was the concept of forty million Blood Qi?
If the quality of Blood Qi couldn't compare to Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi or heaven and earth devil qi, then there was another saying... quantity leads to qualitative change!
An ant couldn't kill an elephant.
But if countless ants gathered together... even a behemoth like an elephant would only face death.
Just like... that forty million Blood Qi, fighting against ten Devil Pills.
Rumble!
Inside Lu Sheng's Body, it was as if an ancient furnace was burning, releasing endless power.
Vast and mighty, it carried an ultimate power.
The Earth Shaking Hammer trembled continuously, emanating an extremely surging pressure, as if to completely shatter everything.
Even when Tian Lingzi felt the pressure coming from the Earth Shaking Hammer, a strong look of fear appeared in his eyes.
"Heaven and Earth..."
Lu Sheng held the Earth Shaking Hammer, walking step by step towards Tian Lingzi's location.
"Hammer!"
The moment the last two words were uttered, Lu Sheng's foot stomped hard, and his entire being was like a rapidly launched cannonball, charging straight towards Tian Lingzi.
Forty million Blood Qi Power surged madly into the Earth Shaking Hammer.
Ten thousand strands of Confucian Qi also poured in.
Hundredfold Hidden Dragon Sword Qi!
Fourth-rank Hidden Dragon Sword Intent!
Fourth-rank Slaughter Hammer Intent!
Peak Seventh-Layer Body Refining Physical Body Power!
Thousand Flows Lightning Power!
Flame Power!
Star Power!
The energy within Lu Sheng's Body, at this moment, instantly surged into the Earth Shaking Hammer.
Even... the Heaven and Earth Power around Tian Lingzi's Body, at this moment, finally broke through Tian Lingzi's suppression, betrayed Tian Lingzi, and surged into the Earth Shaking Hammer.
"Damn it!"
Tian Lingzi gnashed his teeth fiercely and instantly cut off his Bloodline Power.
However... without the enhancement of Bloodline Power, Tian Lingzi was nothing more than a Martial Artist who had just entered the Flying Heaven Realm.
The Earth Shaking Hammer was raised high, carrying endless power.
Suddenly, it directly descended towards Tian Lingzi.
"I am the current leader of the Sky Demon Royal Clan, how can I die at the hands of an ant like you!"
Looking at the continuously enlarging Earth Shaking Hammer, a crazed look also appeared in Tian Lingzi's eyes.
He formed hand seals, and a dense Devilish Qi enveloped him from behind.
"Heavenly Demon... World Shaking Seal!"
Tian Lingzi roared, and the surging Devilish Qi transformed into an extremely solid great seal, carrying extremely terrifying power, and slammed towards the Earth Shaking Hammer.
However... the moment the Earth Shaking Hammer made contact with the Heavenly Demon World Shaking Seal, it easily shattered the Devilish Qi-formed World Shaking Seal with overwhelming power.
It continued to descend unstoppably towards Tian Lingzi's location.
"No!!!"
The moment Tian Lingzi saw his World Shaking Seal easily shattered by the Earth Shaking Hammer, his pupils were finally filled with fear.
He turned around, wanting to escape the Earth Shaking Hammer's strike.
But how could Lu Sheng give him such an opportunity?
In an instant, the speed of the Earth Shaking Hammer's descent suddenly accelerated.
Finally... it landed heavily on Tian Lingzi's Body.
Thud!
Terrifying power was fiercely unleashed on Tian Lingzi's back, and in just an instant, Tian Lingzi's clothes were completely shattered.
Even his flesh and blood melted directly under the terrifying power of the Earth Shaking Hammer!
"Ah!!!"
Gu Changge and the others could only hear a scream suddenly echoing throughout the Barren Battlefield, and then they saw that Tian Lingzi's figure was already completely covered by the Earth Shaking Hammer.
When the Earth Shaking Hammer was raised again.
Tian Lingzi's figure had already completely disappeared from their sight.
Tian Lingzi... was directly melted by the ultimate power!
Melted!
Not killed!
One could see how terrifying the power of this Heaven and Earth Hammer was!
A trace of shock also appeared in the eyes of Gu Changge and the others.
One must know, let alone Tian Lingzi with his Bloodline Power activated, even Tian Lingzi without his Bloodline activated, they were no match for him.
Yet Lu Sheng... had actually killed the opponent.
However, after executing Tian Lingzi, Lu Sheng also fell heavily from mid-air.
Although after activating a hundred Human Body Treasure Troves, his Blood Qi doubled, reaching a terrifying forty million points.
But the side effects of the Heaven and Earth Hammer still caused Lu Sheng to directly lose his combat ability, and without the support of his strength, he also fell directly, creating a deep pit in the ground.
"Lu Sheng!"
Gu Changge reacted, struggling with his body covered in wounds, and rushed over. When he saw that Lu Sheng, although he had crashed into the ground, didn't have any major injuries, Gu Changge finally let out a sigh of relief.
However, there was still a trace of complexity in his gaze towards Lu Sheng.
Li Qing and the others also walked over at this time.
They helped Lu Sheng out of the deep pit.
A trace of admiration was added to their eyes as they looked at Lu Sheng.
They had originally thought that in this Profound Spirit Space, Lu Sheng would only serve to hold back the opponent, but who knew that this sudden change would require Lu Sheng, who was several years younger than them, to clean up their mess.
As a result, their expressions became somewhat ashamed.
"It seems... the leader of the Star Academy will ultimately fall to you!"
Gu Changge looked at Lu Sheng, a rare smile appearing on his usually indifferent face.
Lu Sheng smiled at the words, but the smile tugged at his strained flesh and blood, causing his face to twitch repeatedly.
Gu Changge patted Lu Sheng's shoulder and said softly, "This time, Great Xia owes you a great debt!"
Li Qing and the others also nodded.
Indeed, if it weren't for Lu Sheng, the sudden power of Tian Lingzi would have been enough to easily annihilate them.
Whether they could survive was a question, let alone fighting for Profound Spirit Luck for Great Xia.
"But I have a question, how did Tian Lingzi suddenly Break through to the Flying Heaven Realm, and I saw that the special power seemed to come from outside the Profound Spirit Space!"
At this moment, Lu Sheng slowly spoke, a trace of doubt in his words.
That power definitely didn't belong to Tian Lingzi, so how did it appear beside Tian Lingzi?
Could it be... an answer had already appeared in Lu Sheng's mind.
Something was wrong outside!
Everyone's eyes trembled slightly, and they all thought of this point at the same time.
When this power first descended, they didn't have time to think much, but now that Tian Lingzi was dead, recalling it carefully, they found it somewhat terrifying to ponder.
"Hiss!"
"Nothing will happen to the Principal, will it!"
Gu Changge gasped, frowning and saying in a deep voice.
Everyone exchanged glances, then all looked towards the sky above the Barren Battlefield.
With Tian Lingzi's fall, the decisive battle in this Barren Battlefield finally came to an end.
The barrier that had enveloped the entire Barren Battlefield had disappeared at some unknown point, replaced by golden pillars of light descending from the sky.
"It seems... we have to go out!"
Lu Sheng looked at the light pillar and said softly.
He took a deep breath, circulated the Hidden Dragon Formless Sword, and began to recover his Blood Qi Power.
He didn't know if it was because he had used the Heaven and Earth Hammer too much before, coupled with adapting to the terrifying medicinal power of the Recovery Pill, although Lu Sheng currently had no strength left to fight, he could walk slowly.
The speed of Qi and Blood recovery also accelerated. When Lu Sheng and the others approached the light pillar, Lu Sheng no longer needed Gu Changge and the others' support, having recovered a good deal of Qi and Blood.
"So, what will this Profound Spirit Luck be?"
Looking at the light pillar, a hint of curiosity flickered in Lu Sheng's eyes.
According to Lin Xuan, the rewards from the Profound Spirit Luck were different every time. Once, it directly elevated the Realm of every single person in the Great Xia Human Clan by one Realm.
This caused the Great Xia Human Clan's foundation to surge, giving birth to existences in the Saintly Position Realm.
Finally, they had the power to counterattack the foreign devils, reclaiming many territories.
And this time... what would it be?
Lu Sheng felt a sense of anticipation.
Everyone exchanged glances, then stepped into the golden light pillar together.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!!!
Lu Sheng only heard a series of faint hums in his ears. The next moment, those wisps of golden light suddenly surged into Lu Sheng's body.
It felt warm and pleasant.
Just like bathing in sunlight.
However, Lu Sheng soon discovered that while bathed in the golden light, his Qi and Blood were recovering at a very fast rate.
In just a few breaths, Lu Sheng had completely recovered to his Peak state.
Even some hidden injuries within his body were gradually healed as the golden light poured in.
It wasn't just Lu Sheng; Gu Changge and the others experienced the same.
Suddenly, an extremely surging Physical Body Power erupted within Lu Sheng's body.
Lu Sheng's heart trembled slightly.
Body Refining... Breakthrough!
He directly broke through to Body Refining Eighth Layer!
Comparable to a Martial Artist in the Early Stage of Spirit Transformation.
"This golden light, is it increasing our cultivation?"
Lu Sheng asked curiously.
Gu Changge and the others opened their eyes. Li Qing smiled and said, "This is the reward for the victorious side of the decisive battle. Besides the Profound Spirit Luck being bestowed upon the race, the winners will receive some individual rewards. This golden light pillar must be the reward given to us by the profound spirit mirror!"
Lu Sheng nodded, then began to sense the golden light invading his body.
Beside him, Gu Changge and the others emitted surges of Breakthrough Aura. Under the shroud of the golden light, Gu Changge even successfully condensed his ninth Spiritual Qi pellet.
Reaching Spirit Transformation Ninth Layer.
Although Li Qing and the others were a bit behind, they all experienced Breakthroughs as well.
As for Lu Sheng, besides his Physical Body breaking through to the Early Stage of Body Refining Eighth Layer, wisps of pure Spiritual Qi also surged into Lu Sheng's Dantian, though they did not condense into pellets.
But with the amplification of Spiritual Qi, Lu Sheng's Aura also became even stronger.
"Oh!"
Suddenly, Lu Sheng's heart stirred slightly.
He inwardly observed his body and was startled to discover that as wisps of Spiritual Qi surged into his Dantian, a piece resembling a mirror shard appeared within his Dantian.
Lu Sheng tried to touch the shard with his Qi and Blood Power and Spiritual Qi, but the shard only flickered with a golden glow and showed no further reaction.
"What is this thing?"
"Is it also a reward from the profound spirit mirror?"
Lu Sheng was a little curious, but since this thing existed within his Dantian, would there be any problems?
Lu Sheng was somewhat worried.
After all, for a Martial Artist, especially one about to enter the Qi Refining stage, the Dantian was extremely important.
For Lu Sheng, the Dantian was the place to store Confucian Qi and Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. If anything went wrong, it would be troublesome.
"After I get out, I'll ask my teacher or the dean!"
Lu Sheng immediately withdrew from his inner vision and returned to his senses.
Although he was still in the Peak of the Body Storage Realm, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within his body was already very rich. Next, he only needed to refine this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into Spirit Pills to naturally step into the Spirit Transformation Realm.
At that time, Lu Sheng's combat power would be even stronger.
"It's time to leave!"
Lu Sheng said softly.
Everyone also recovered from their Breakthroughs, expressions of surviving a great calamity on their faces.
Fang Hao couldn't help but exclaim.
"This Profound Spirit Space... it was truly full of dangers!"
Everyone nodded.
They seemed to be alive, but four of them had died before the decisive battle, and if it weren't for Lu Sheng's presence, they might have all perished in this Profound Spirit Space.
Perhaps sensing their thoughts, a tremendous power suddenly erupted from within the golden light pillar, directly pulling them and sweeping them rapidly towards the sky.
Finally... they disappeared from this Barren Battlefield.
However, just after Lu Sheng and the others disappeared, a blurry figure slowly emerged in this Barren Battlefield.
The blurry figure gazed at the spot where Lu Sheng and the others had vanished, murmuring softly.
"In such a remote Star Domain, there is actually such a Prodigy with a special Physique. It seems... the Legacy of the Profound Spirit Sect still has hope of continuing."
"I just don't know... when this little fellow will discover its mysteries!"
The blurry figure murmured softly, eventually turning into a long sigh, and the figure completely disappeared from the Barren Battlefield... Yin Yang City.
At this moment, the atmosphere near Yin Yang City was extremely oppressive.
Kong Yunchang stood between Heaven and Earth, his eyes fixed on the passage to the Profound Spirit Space.
Lin Xuan also paced continuously on the city wall, his expression no longer as calm as before.
Lan Linglong stood at the edge of the city wall, her gaze anxiously fixed in the direction of the Profound Spirit Space.
Only the Sky Devil Emperor, held in the mouth of the white Dragon, sat extremely leisurely, speaking from time to time.
"If you release this Emperor now, perhaps this Emperor, in a good mood, might even let my clan's Prodigies spare your Great Xia's Chosen Ones!"
"How about it, do you want to release this Emperor? Hahaha!!"
The Sky Devil Emperor laughed wildly. Although his Aura was somewhat weak, it did not affect his joyful mood in the slightest.
"Hmph!"
However, the only response he received was Kong Yunchang's cold snort.
"Do you really think this old man is a fool? You can only transmit your Origin Power into the Profound Spirit Space; that's your limit. You want to send a message? It's not too late to boast like that when you become a Devil God!"
Kong Yunchang directly exposed the Sky Devil Emperor's words.
The Sky Devil Emperor didn't care, merely sitting leisurely in the white Dragon's mouth, a smile on his face.
"Then... I can only wait for my clan's Prodigies to obtain the Profound Spirit Luck and allow this Emperor to achieve Devil Godhood!"
"At that time... the first ones this Emperor kills will be the three of you!"
The Sky Devil Emperor sneered.
Meanwhile, at the Peak of the snowy mountain.
Zhao Changsheng glanced at the location of the Profound Spirit Space, then lowered his head to look at his watch, shrugging his shoulders.
"Ten minutes have passed, it's probably almost over. The Sky Demon Royal Clan's Prodigies, with Origin Power amplification, are not to be underestimated. Lu Sheng and the others... are probably finished!"
Wang Mu stood at the mountain Peak, calmly gazing at the Profound Spirit Space, his eyes flickering slightly.
He did not answer Zhao Changsheng's words.
Zhao Changsheng didn't mind, simply standing quietly behind Wang Mu, yawning.
Suddenly, a golden light flickered within the Profound Spirit passage.
"Hahaha, it seems our clan's Prodigies are about to emerge!!"
The Sky Devil Emperor saw this scene and immediately burst into laughter.
The hearts of Kong Yunchang, Lin Xuan, and Lan Linglong also flickered and tightened with that golden light.
Kong Yunchang even gripped the blade in his hand. If it truly were the Sky Demon Royal Clan's Prodigies who emerged, then Kong Yunchang would undoubtedly strike without hesitation, slaying the opponent.
To avenge Lu Sheng!
"Junior... will you disappoint me?"
Wang Mu's eyes narrowed slightly, staring intently at the location of the Profound Spirit passage.
Soon, figures finally appeared in everyone's sight amidst the flickering golden light.
As those figures flickered into view, the Sky Devil Emperor's laughter abruptly ceased.
