Chapter 81

~11 min read 2,059 words

Wu Pifu was trembling slightly all over.

This was neither fear nor excitement, but the natural crushing of a low-level life by a high-level life.

Natural enemies do exist in the natural world!

Wu Pifu didn't know if this giant boar before him counted as a natural enemy of humans or mortals, but he confirmed that his body was indeed trembling naturally.

This was by no means pollution, distortion, or any negative influence, because the Sleepless Spiritual Light in his sea of consciousness was shining brightly, and he also had the passive effect of Death Return to resist it.

For example, when he swallowed the boar monster's flesh and it entered his stomach, he could feel the flesh as if it had come alive, and there were ghost wails and wolf howls colliding in his consciousness, but as soon as it was illuminated by the Sleepless Spiritual Light, it was suppressed, and the flesh in his stomach "died."

So Wu Pifu was very sure that he was now trembling out of physical instinct. He immediately reached out and pounded his thighs and chest, forcibly stopping the trembling, and then stared fixedly at the giant boar monster.

This giant boar monster revealed its form from the dust, standing before Wu Pifu like a small hill. It breathed heavily, and the bone spurs all over its body kept expanding and contracting. At this moment, Wu Pifu discovered that one of its two tusks was pitch black, with vengeful spirits and ghosts circling around it, and he immediately understood that this tusk was the magic weapon called the Profound Yin Soul-Slaughtering Blade.

It turned out that this giant boar monster had refined one of its own tusks into a magic weapon.

The giant boar monster stared at Wu Pifu with its lantern-sized eyes, which were pitch black. Then, in the next instant, it lowered its head, aimed its tusks directly at Wu Pifu, and then lowered its head to gore toward him.

It wasn't running away anymore!?

Wu Pifu immediately wanted to burst out his qi to increase his speed, but the next moment, an earth-gray dust flickered around him, and a heavy, immense force came out of thin air, forcibly suppressing his speed by more than thirty percent. Even with his burst, he didn't dodge it. Although he dodged the tusk piercing, he was hit directly on half of his body when the boar snout gored toward him.

With that one strike, Wu Pifu felt as if he had been hit by a train. His entire body was sent flying into the air, and he was knocked back a full thirty or forty meters in mid-air. By the time he landed, he couldn't even feel the pain or itch in half of his body. He rolled another twenty meters or so, crashed into a pile of logs, shattered them, and then slid another four or five meters before finally stopping.

"Wah!"

Wu Pifu spat out a large mouthful of blood, which contained a large amount of internal organ fragments. He looked at the half of his body that had been hit; although his hands and feet were still there, they already appeared twisted, shattered, and flattened.

At this moment, the giant boar monster in the distance lowered its head and charged again, and that oppressive force from thin air descended upon Wu Pifu once more.

At this life-and-death moment, Wu Pifu finally used his full strength. The controllable demonic possession, which served as his trump card, finally erupted at this moment.

The qi energy traveled from his spine all the way up, finally rushing into his brain and spiritual platform. In the next instant, Wu Pifu's eyes turned blood-red.

Mental negative backlash rate: ten percent...

Fifteen percent!

Wu Pifu directly increased the mental negative backlash rate to fifteen percent. Although he felt his mind swaying, he still retained his reason and consciousness.

Sure enough, the advancement of the Sleepless Spiritual Light, combined with the passive existence of Death Return, greatly increased his resistance to mental negative backlash. He even felt that he could probably suppress it even if he increased it to twenty percent.

However, Wu Pifu did not do so; that would be too risky. Even at the current fifteen percent, he felt that his physical vitality had greatly increased, and his skin, flesh, bones, and internal organs were rapidly absorbing nutrients from his stomach to heal themselves.

He felt as if every part of his body had its own life consciousness, only that it was all under the control of Wu Pifu's main consciousness.

At the instant the giant boar monster charged in front of him, Wu Pifu struck the ground with both hands and feet simultaneously, shattering the earth-gray force field, jumping at least ten meters high, and landing on top of the giant boar monster's head.

The giant boar monster was still charging forward by inertia, but the bone spurs on its body bent and stabbed toward Wu Pifu.

But Wu Pifu seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, nimbly dodging the nearest bone spurs, and then he raised his arm high... very high. His arm was at least six or seven meters high, as if his arm had become rubber and could stretch.

Before more bone spurs could bend toward him, Wu Pifu's stretched arm suddenly retracted downward, smashing onto the giant boar monster's hindbrain spine with the force of ten thousand jun.

With a crack, Wu Pifu's arm exploded entirely, leaving only bone fragments, while the giant boar monster's hindbrain also sank downward, causing its head to tilt upward at a forty-five-degree angle.

The force of that one smash had actually forcibly broken the giant boar monster's spine!

Just then, those bent spurs accelerated once again. Wu Pifu had to jump off the giant boar monster. As soon as he landed on the ground, all the bent spurs returned to their original state... no, more bent spurs seemed to emerge from the giant boar monster's body. These things, which looked like both bone and metal, grew upward from within its skin.

Wu Pifu couldn't care about all that. At this moment, the giant boar monster's body was still recovering, and its head, tilted at a forty-five-degree angle, was also slowly cracking and recovering downward. After Wu Pifu landed on the ground, he actually hugged one of the boar's legs and began to drag it toward Bianliang City!

This wild boar was nearly ten meters high and eighteen or nineteen meters long, a behemoth, probably weighing two or three hundred tons. Even if Wu Pifu burst out with all his strength, it would only be forty or fifty tons of force. Even now, in the controllable demonic possession state, his strength definitely did not exceed a hundred tons.

Fortunately, it was just dragging, not lifting. Although slow, he was indeed dragging the giant boar monster forward in this muddy ground.

But after dragging it less than a hundred meters, the giant boar monster's spine had already healed. The giant boar monster, rolling on the ground, kicked its four hooves wildly, and its body pressed toward Wu Pifu.

During this dragging process, Wu Pifu didn't stay idle, constantly eating mouthfuls of meat from the boar's hoof, having already gnawed a large hole in it. His shattered arm was also recovering, only the recovery speed was far less than that of the giant boar monster, and it still looked a bit deformed now.

When the giant boar monster's body pressed over and its snout gored wildly at him, Wu Pifu carried that boar hoof, lifted it with force, and then leaped upward, folding the entire boar hoof and leg backward. The giant boar monster shrieked and roared, its boar calls echoing across the wilderness. The next second, Wu Pifu jumped directly onto the giant boar monster's head, and then he squatted slightly on its forehead.

No sooner said than done, several bent spurs emerged again beside the giant boar monster's head. Just as Wu Pifu squatted slightly and focused his qi in his dantian, the bent spurs grew wildly and stabbed fiercely toward his body. Amidst the swishing sounds, three bent spurs pierced through his shoulder, chest, and thigh. Then, at the same time, Wu Pifu struck out with both palms, and all the qi and blood energy in his entire body slammed fiercely onto the giant boar monster's forehead.

With a loud bang, the giant boar monster's forehead and most of its brains exploded simultaneously. Its two eyeballs rolled out and fell to the ground, and half of its boar head became a mush.

Immediately after, Wu Pifu moved his whole body, and all the bent spurs that had pierced him were shattered. A sense of wholeness condensed all over his body.

(This is... Dan Energy!?)

Just a moment ago, he had used the Sitting Lotus Energy to burst out a virtual Dan Energy, but seeing the bent spurs attacking, he wanted to strike halfway in his anxiety. However, in his controllable demonic possession state, his mind began a frantic deduction of virtual Dan Energy, Dan Energy, qi and blood, qi energy, etc. It seemed like only an instant, but he had deduced it at least tens of thousands of times in his mind. Then, when he delivered this strike and subconsciously broke free from the bent spurs, his body naturally burst out a force of wholeness.

This was definitely not Transformation Energy!

This force came from the dantian, and the qi and blood energy converged in one place when the force erupted. It seemed as if every part of his body was exerting force individually, but it was actually solidifying all power into one, so the power increased explosively. In just a short instant, the power burst within a small range reached at least over a hundred tons!

!

(No, it's still not complete, it's still between virtual Dan Energy and true Dan Energy, but it's only a hair's breadth away!)

Wu Pifu felt joy in his heart. At this moment, the giant boar monster began to heal itself again, and he immediately jumped down, carried another boar hoof, and began to drag it frantically.

With the force of wholeness, the power of his entire body was twisted into one strand, which immediately increased his dragging speed by more than ten times. Although it was still not fast, it had reached the speed of an ordinary person walking briskly.

Just then, Wu Pifu keenly saw the truth of this giant boar monster's healing.

It was not the natural reorganization and growth of flesh and blood, which was completely different from the healing of his body. Instead, there were countless things like mycelium inside the giant boar monster's body. These things intertwined and moved, and the flesh and blood they touched proliferated rapidly along the mycelium, thereby achieving the special effect of super-speed healing. And the roots of these mycelia... were those bone spurs that broke out from the body surface!!

(What is this thing!? Has this monster been parasitized?)

Wu Pifu couldn't say for sure, but he also keenly felt that these bent spurs and the boar monster itself did not seem to be of the same species. These bone spurs seemed to be something even more terrifying. Just now, there was an itch where he had been pierced.

Feeling carefully, it seemed that tiny root spurs were growing rapidly in the wounds where he had been pierced, and he couldn't say what this was.

Just then, the Sleepless Spiritual Light in Wu Pifu's consciousness suddenly radiated light along his flesh. Under the illumination, black energy drifted out from his wounds, dissipating upon contact with the air and becoming invisible.

Pollution source!!

Wu Pifu immediately and keenly perceived what this was.

This was pollution!

And the giant boar monster before him was a nightmare that had been polluted!

Suddenly, at this moment, a desolate horn sound rang out from afar, and immediately after, dust rose from the east, west, and north directions. Flags were erected, and cavalry appeared in patches.

Wu Pifu looked out with blood-red eyes.

Cavalry!

Jin cavalry were running in groups toward the battlefield between him and the giant boar monster.

On these Jin people, whether conspicuous or hidden, almost all of them had bone spurs emerging from their bodies!!
