Chapter 749: Soul Tower of Trial (25)
Though it was flames against a spirit beast that used flames, it proved to be effective in the end.
That was mainly because there was another aspect to this attack.
The blood red palm was an attack that drew on blood of those that Mo Sha had slain to make it stronger and most of the ones that he had slain were spirit beasts. This had turned his attack into an attack that was considered the bain of spirit beasts.
So the flames being infused into such an attack would naturally also have a powerful effect against spirit beasts.
That meant that it worked on this Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast even though it was a flame attributed lion.
When the palm slammed down on the back of the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast, it was already too late for it to stop this attack.
The Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast had naturally noticed this attack and wanted to block it, but it found that it couldn't control its flames.
No…it was better to say that its flames seemed to have gotten stuck on something when it tried to pull it back.
It found that Huang Xie was looking at it with a wide smile on his face as he said, "How can I let you hurt my senior sister?"
It was as if Huang Xie was grabbing the flames that were around him as his hands were covered in the faint green light. It seemed like that was the reason why it wasn't able to pull back its flames.
So the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast was slammed down into the ground by the combined attack of Xiao Ming and Mo Sha.
It created a crater in the ground from the impact of the blood red palm slamming into its back.
This crater was quite large for what it was, showing just how much impact was behind the blood red palm.
The Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast even ended up spitting up blood because it was hit from behind by this attack.
Between Huang Xie who was keeping it in place and the ones that had attacked it from behind, it regarded the ones that attacked it from behind as a target that it needed to take care of first. After all, even if the one that was keeping it in place wasn't hurt by its flames, this human also hadn't demonstrated any abilities that would cause it any harm.
Instead of dealing with a shield, it was better to break the sword.
Once the sword was broken, then it could slowly break down the shield that could block its attacks.
Or at least that was what it thought until Huang Xie suddenly cast off the flames around him.
The Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast was surprised to find that it could control its flames again and wanted to use those flames to take care of Xiao Ming and Mo Sha, but it soon found that this wasn't the only thing that changed.
That was because there was a sense of danger coming from in front of it.
The Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast had just stood up and recovered from the attack, at the same time, it was using its flames to find the ones that attacked it. That meant that there was no way that it would be able to react in time to this sense of danger coming from in front.
In the end, it was barely even able to see what it was that hit it.
It was Huang Xie who was covered in that faint green light.
For the first time, he stepped forward and punched out at the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast.
The entire time, he had been blocking the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast, as if he wasn't able to attack at all. That was why the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast thought that he couldn't attack.
But that was a mistake.
The moment that Huang Xie's fist covered in the faint green light hit the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast in the chest, it sunk into the flesh of the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast.
That Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast was even lifted off the ground by the force of Huang Xie's punch.
Hard!
That was the only thing that the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast could think when Huang Xie's fist sunk into its chest.
The force of the punch threw the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast into the air where it flipped a few times before landing on its back.
As the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast laid there staring up at the roof above it, it couldn't help wondering…
"Just how can a human have such a hard body?!"
That was the result of Huang Xie's training.
His physique was one that grew the more that he was beaten and as for how it grew, it was that his body became harder and harder. It was similar to how skin would become thicker the more that it was hurt.
The faint green light that was around him was the representation of the power of his physique and that was what grew harder each time he was beaten. Explore more at mvl
So that was why his punch was so hard.
At the same time, it was because his physique was so hard that he was able to hit this hard.
A strong defense also meant a strong offense.
The hardest defense could be used to attack since it couldn't be broken and being slammed with an unbreakable wall really hurts.
His strength also increased with the power of his physique, so that was how he was able to punch much stronger than before.
All of this pushed the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast away.
But the Peak Qi Condensing Realm if anything was tough, so it wasn't as if it was going to go down with just this. Even though it had been sent flying through the air, it was still able to recover and stand up again.
This time, it looked at Huang Xie with a wary look as if it was planning on taking him seriously.
It was just that…Huang Xie didn't plan on taking this Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast seriously.
Even though the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast was focused on Huang Xie, Huang Xie didn't plan on playing with it.
So all of a sudden, Huang Xie turned around and started to run.
There was a moment where the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast was stunned because of this. It was just standing there as if it was trying to figure out if Huang Xie was being serious or not, but that didn't stop Huang Xie from running.
So in the end, the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast had no choice but to burst into flames as if prepared to charge at Huang Xie.
It was just that during this time, there were attacks that rained down on it again that blocked its view. Even if these attacks couldn't do anything and were burnt away by the flames that surrounded the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast, there were just too many of them that the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast lost sight of Huang Xie.
When these attacks disappeared, Huang Xie was completely gone.
The Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast was filled with rage seeing this.
It once again gave a roar and burnt away all of the small barricades around it, but there was nothing that it could do as those small barricades didn't have any people behind them.
All that happened was that these small barricades were burnt to ashes, but the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast couldn't release the rage that it felt at all.
It was just like this that a game of cat and mouse was played.
With the distraction from the attacks that the others sent, Huang Xie and the Love Sect and Demon Palm Sect group were able to move around the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast.
They were the only ones that could threaten this Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast, so they were the only ones that the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast paid attention to.
It was just that all of these attacks were like annoying mosquitoes that were buzzing around the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast. It had no choice but to maintain the flames around it to stop these attacks, but there were so many that it kept obstructing its view.
This created opportunities for it to be attacked…
It tried many times to deal with these bugs, but Huang Xie always showed himself to stop the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast.
The Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast found that it wasn't able to stop Huang Xie at all.
In fact, it felt pressure every time Huang Xie revealed himself since Huang Xie's defenses were just getting stronger and stronger.
Though it failed to realize that this was also because its attacks were getting weaker and weaker.
The Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast eventually fell to the ground while panting.
It seemed like it was on its last breath with how tired it looked.
It seemed like they were able to wear it down, but they didn't let their guard down until the Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast closed its eyes.
It was only then that Huang Xie came out to take a closer look at this Peak Qi Condensing Realm Beast.
He wanted to make sure that it was dead and not just pretending to be dead so that it could recover its power.
But that was when flames appeared again.
This time, the flames were jet black.
