My Cultivation System

Chapter 56 - Thousand Punches

Ancient Fire surge could be used to increase the strength of the low-level fire beings and along with it, there was also a small effect.

That small effect was to heal the injuries.

That means, the energy emitted by Henrick's body was not used to increase the strength of the baby fire monkey; instead, it's body unconsciously tends to heal the injuries first and only then the energy could be used to increase its strength.

'Phew… all the cuts are healing faster than I thought,'

When Henrick saw the rate at which the injuries were healing, he heaved a sigh of relief and hugged the baby fire monkey even closer to his chest.

Soon, the smoke covering the small canyon dispersed and Henrick could see his surroundings clearly now.

"Huh? The outer sect disciple went into that tunnel, right?"'

While emitting the red-light from his body, Henrick's eyes landed on the small tunnel which the outer sect disciple used to escape.

"That's right! I used this tunnel but I didn??t escape. Since you are only in stage 1 of the body cleansing realm, I don't have a need to escape from here when I can simply kill you,"

Just as Henrick finished his muttering, he heard a scoffing voice from the tunnel that made him raise his brows.

"I thought someone of at least stage 3 body cleansing realm cultivator must have arrived when you destroyed my barrier; however, I didn't expect a stage 1 body cleansing realm cultivator to do that,"

While Henrick was still holding the baby fire monkey in his hands, he saw the previously escaped outer sect disciple come out of the small tunnel while saying something.

"Why do you want to kill this little fire monkey?"

Henrick stood up from the ground while holding the baby fire monkey and asked the outer sect disciple about the reason why he wanted to kill his fire monkey.

Even though the outer sect disciple was more powerful than him, while looking at him Henrick didn't have a fear in his eyes. There was only anger in his eyes.

"Because that little fire monkey saw something that it shouldn't have seen," The outer sect disciple was expressionless when he replied to Henrick.

'What is that skill? '

At the same time, the outer sect disciple silently thought in his head as he looked at the red-coloured light emitting from Henrick's body.

"Haha"

All of sudden, Henrick started laughing when he heard the outer sect disciple's answer to his question.

"Huh? What are you laughing at,"

At Henirck's laugh, the outer sect disciple seemed to be irritated and asked with a serious tone.

"Is it only you or all the demonic cultivators are cowards?"

Henrick replied to him in a flat tone; however, the outer sect disciple could notice the mocking in those words.

"Youu"

He became very angry at Henrick's actions and words and didn't waste any time before rushing towards him and continued, "After killing you, I will cut you into pieces and throw them in the beast mountain."

By the time, he finished his words, the outer sect disciple had already closed in the distance between him and Henrick and threw a flurry of punches at Henrick.

'Punch'

'Punch'

.

.

'Block'

However, all the punches were confidently blocked by Henrick with his hands by covering his abdomen.

Even before blocking the punches, Henrick placed the baby fire monkey on the ground as most of its injuries were healed by his innate skill 'Ancient fire surge'.

"Your body is quite resistant. Even after blocking my continuous punches, you are able to maintain your stability at the same place. You are not bad for a stage 1 body cleansing realm cultivator,"

When Henrick successfully blocked the outer sect disciple' flurry of punches without moving from his place, the outer sect disciple praised Henrick.

"However, I still haven't used my martial skill. Let's see, how you block this one,"

Nevertheless, the outer sect disciple didn't give any chance for Henrick before using his martial skill.

The earlier punches were only normal punches by using his brute strength; however, in case of martial skill, it was entirely different.

'Thousand punches'

He didn't wait a single moment before rushing at Henrick and released his martial technique.

'Punch'

'Punch'

One after another punch landed on Henrick and soon within a few moments thousand punches landed on Henrick.

'What the...'

However, even after his martial technique, he still saw Henrick standing in front of him with a small smile on his face which made the outer sect disciple shocked.

He was shocked that a stage 1 body cleansing realm cultivator was able to withstand his 1000 punches.

Moreover, what truly shocked the outer sect disciple was he didn't even move an inch from his standing position.

"You are truly a monst..,"

'Thud'

Before the outer sect disciple could even finish his sentence, Henrick was unable to stand any longer and fell onto his knees.

"Maybe, you are not,"

When he saw that Henrick fell to his knees, the outer sect disciple changed his words and shook his head.

"I am not done yet,"

However, to his surprise, he saw Henrick stood up and muttered with a low and deep voice that made the outer sect disciple shiver for a moment.

That's right!

He was shivered by Henrick's voice coupled with Henrick's blood-red eyes, he unconsciously moved back a couple of steps.

'What is he? Is he a demonic cultivator too?'

Looking at Henrick's bloodshot eyes, the outer sect disciple silently thought in his head with some unknown fear in his heart.

'If he is a demonic cultivator, then why am I even trying to fight him?'

When he thought that Henrick was also a demonic cultivator like him, the outer sect disciple's thoughts about fighting Henrick had changed.

"Friend, we are both demonic cultivators. So, why bother fighting and killing each other?"

Suppressing his fear, the outer sect disciple moved towards Henrick as he extended his hand as though he didn't want to fight Henrick anymore.
