Chapter 173: Formidable! Breaking The Golden Bell!

Chapter 173: Formidable! Breaking The Golden Bell!

Clang!

Ling Feng threw a punch with overwhelming force that slammed heavily into the elemental qi golden bell, creating a resounding noise that pierced through the heavens!

"Hahaha! Kid, even though your fist technique is impressive, it's still far from enough to break through my Golden Bell Body Protection Art! In the mere Pulse Formation realm, how much true qi do you have? How many punches like the one just now can you throw? I'll just stand here and let you attack. What can you possibly do to me?"

The third elder laughed heartily toward the sky, waiting for Ling Feng to exhaust his strength or for his secret technique of explosive true qi to fail, so that he could regain control of the situation.

"Hmph, what a joke!" Ling Feng narrowed his eyes and sneered. "Then let's see how many of my punches you can actually withstand!"

Ling Feng's eyes, sharp as knives, locked onto the third elder inside the golden bell made from elemental qi. He was like a savage beast targeting its prey!

The Heavenly Dao Eye was activated, but the Golden Bell Body Protection Art was indeed impressive. Ling Feng struggled to find any cracks in the third elder’s defenses!

Although there was a relatively weak point, the third elder had mastered this technique to the Transformation Realm, enabling him to relocate the weak points at will.

Ling Feng's lips curved into a smile as he abandoned the sword and opted for the Ninefold Ocean-Guarding Fist, which consumed relatively less true qi.

"The Ninth Form of the Ninefold Ocean-Guarding Fist: Azure Dragon Subdues the Vast Sea!"

Ling Feng crossed his hands over each other, and a surging force burst forth like a dragon plunging into the sea.

Boom!

The third elder's figure swayed violently. He felt as if his chest had been heavily hammered by a punch.

"How is this possible? It actually hit the weak point of the Golden Bell Shield directly? Coincidence! It must be a coincidence!"

However, Ling Feng didn't give the third elder any chance to catch his breath. With the eruption of the True Art of Xuanyuan, his fist carried the force of a thousand more fists as it fiercely struck out.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Each punch landed precisely on the only weak point of the Golden Bell Shield. No matter how the third elder tried to change the weak spot, he couldn't escape Ling Feng's Heavenly Dao Eye!

"Impossible! This can't be happening!" The third elder's mind was in turmoil. Even other martial artists who practiced the Golden Bell Body Protection Art might not necessarily be able to locate its weak point after it was repeatedly changed around. But why was it that it was, in front of Ling Feng, utterly exposed?

“Azure Dragon Subdues the Vast Sea!”

Roar!

In a trance, the third elder seemed to hear the roars of dragons and tigers, and that terrified him to the core.

Who is this freak?

"Break! Break! Break!

"Break!"

Ling Feng was like a tiger descending from a mountain, and his fists pounded out as if he were an inexhaustible humanoid beast. He unleashed a barrage of a hundred punches, yet his breath remained steady. Moreover, each punch landed precisely on the only weak spot of the Golden Bell Shield!

The force of each punch continuously seeped into the Golden Bell Shield, causing it to tremble incessantly. Strong vibrations rippled through the air like ripples on the surface of water.

"How is this possible? How could this be?"

The third elder trembled all over, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. He was evidently shaken by the force transmitted by the golden bell, and his internal organs were injured as a result.

"Brat, what kind of monster are you?"

"Hmph!" Ling Feng's eyes turned cold as he let out a violent shout, and the air seemed to tremble as if the mountains and rivers were responding to him!

"Break!"

Ling Feng's right fist slightly retracted as the raging power continuously gathered at the tip of his fist. After a brief moment of gathering strength, Ling Feng unleashed a heavy punch!

Roar!

Ferocious qi surged forth, conjuring the illusion of a coiling dragon as it thundered onto the golden bell.

Crack!

The golden bell shattered into pieces, leaving the third elder who had been inside it with a pallid face and eyes wide with terror as he stared at Ling Feng, his heart gripped by fear.

"Hmph!" Ling Feng snorted disdainfully, launching a swift kick that sent the elder sprawling to the ground. With ruthless determination, he then pressed his foot firmly onto the elder's face, his gaze piercing like icy waters in the depths of winter.

"B-brat, w-what kind of monster are you?"

The third elder felt as if all his bones had been shattered, blood gushing from his mouth incessantly. He couldn't fathom how a mere early-stage Pulse Formation Realm cultivator could possess such formidable strength.

"All of this is your Jia Family's own doing!"

Ling Feng stomped down fiercely, and with a crisp crack, the miserable cries of the third elder abruptly ceased as brain matter splattered out, painting the ground red and white.

"You old folks from the Jia Family are incompetent at educating your children. Yet, you dare to come after me. You reap what you sow. If you act unjustly, don't blame others, especially people like me, for being ruthless!"

After killing the third elder, Ling Feng felt a wave of weakness washing over him. Gritting his teeth, he formed a hand seal to deactivate the Primordial Lock. Only then did he slump down against a large tree, gasping for air heavily.

The defensive power of the third elder's Golden Bell Body Protection Art from the Jia Family was truly astonishing. If it weren't for Ling Feng's ability to see through its weaknesses with his Heavenly Dao Eye, today it might not have been the third elder lying here defeated.

Nevertheless, Ling Feng had to exert tremendous strength to kill the third elder.

Ling Feng's body was severely weakened, to the extent that even encountering a slightly stronger demonic beast might spell his demise.

Gritting his teeth, Ling Feng approached the corpse of the third elder and activated the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl within his dantian. In the next moment, he opened the Eye of Plunder on his forehead, and the Demonic Void Hand emerged from the void, tearing through space and diving into the third elder's chest.

In the next moment, the third elder's essence, blood, and qi, including all the elemental qi, were all plundered and absorbed into Ling Feng's body, leaving the elder's corpse as a desiccated husk.

The elemental qi perfectly replenished his true qi, while the essence and blood further fortified his body, granting him some enhancement.

Phew...

Ling Feng expelled a breath of stale air, feeling the fatigue within his body dissipate completely.

As a physician, Ling Feng wasn't particularly fond of relying on the abilities of the Eye of Plunder. However, he couldn't deny that every time he plundered the essence of flesh and blood from his opponents, he experienced a sensation almost akin to relieving an addiction.

If not controlled properly, Ling Feng feared that it could become his own inner demon in the future.

Retracting the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl, Ling Feng then thoroughly searched the third elder’s body for treasures. He found several elemental stones, a number of crystal coins, several crystal notes worth tens of thousands, and five bottles of Element Formation Pills, each containing ten pills that were used for cultivation in the Transformation Realm.

One Element Formation Pill was equivalent to a hundred Qi-Boosting Pills. He was indeed the third elder from the Jia Family; he was very wealthy.

In addition to that, there were also two martial arts techniques: the Great Sun Stele-Breaking Palm, and the Golden Bell Body Protection Art.

Ling Feng had essentially replicated these two martial arts techniques using the power of the Heavenly Dao Eye, but he could use the manuals to study them further.

"I once practiced the Rock Body Technique, and that falls short compared to this Golden Bell Body Protection Art. At the moment, I don't have any other defensive techniques, so I'll make do with this Golden Bell Body Protection Art."

Ling Feng thoroughly plundered the wealth on the body of the third elder, then promptly used his true qi to ignite the flames of earth fire to cremate the elder's body. He didn't allow it to be left exposed in the wilderness.

All in all, if it weren't for the relentless pursuit and attacks from the third elder, Ling Feng might not have had the opportunity to obtain the Qi-Refining Primordial Lock.

"The deadline for registration at the four major academies is approaching. It's really not advisable to waste time returning to Hanwu County, as it may lead to unnecessary complications." Ling Feng squinted his eyes slightly, already calculating in his mind.

"It's never too late to take revenge! Let's first go to the Tianwei Academy to register. When my cultivation reaches a certain maturity in the future, I will uproot your Jia Family entirely!"

With a cold gleam in his eyes, Ling Feng immediately leaped up and flew towards the south.

Destination: the imperial capital, Tianwei Academy!
