Chapter 365: Toad Technique
"Bastard!!"
Beneath the ruins, a thunderous roar exploded. Amidst the flying dirt, a figure flew out—who else could it be but Huoyun Xieshen?
"Brat, you dare to ambush me? I'm going to beat you to death!"
At this moment, Huoyun Xieshen was furious, his gray hair standing on end. His turbid eyes flashed with violent rage; he was the one who always ambushed others, and no one had ever been able to ambush him. His figure flickered, shrinking the earth into inches, and he arrived before Yu Liancheng in an instant like a flash of light.
He pulled his right hand back and struck out like lightning, accompanied by a massive roar like a meteor tearing through the air, smashing heavily toward Yu Liancheng.
Yu Liancheng seemed unable to react in time and was struck by Huoyun Xieshen.
Luosha Nu's face brightened. She naturally knew that Huoyun Xieshen's martial arts were not famous for their subtlety, but his internal energy was profound and his moves were fierce; he was best at breaking finesse with brute force, with power enough to move mountains. Once struck by him, one would be dead or severely injured.
But Huoyun Xieshen's expression turned slightly strange, because this palm strike had no solid impact, as if he had struck into cotton.
Sure enough, the next moment, Yu Liancheng's figure suddenly shattered into hundreds of afterimages, scattering in all directions.
In an instant, with Huoyun Xieshen at the center, hundreds of shadows flickered, all turning into the figure of Yu Liancheng.
At a glance, it was impossible to tell which was the real body and which was a phantom. It seemed as if every one was real, yet it also felt as if they were all phantoms, dizzying and shaking the mind.
"What kind of strange martial art is this?" Huoyun Xieshen frowned; with his ability, it was difficult to distinguish the real body.
He simply struck the ground with a palm from a distance. The palm force surged, and countless fragments of stone shot toward the phantoms, whistling through the air; in terms of power, it was definitely no less than a submachine gun firing.
But it was still useless.
The phantoms continuously tore apart and reformed; no matter how Huoyun Xieshen agitated his palm force and fist wind, it was all in vain.
"Bastard, if you have the ability, fight me fair and square! What kind of skill is it to hide and skulk like this?" Huoyun Xieshen tore through several more phantoms and couldn't help but roar at the layers of shadows before him.
"This seat has a small question to ask the Evil God." Thousands of phantoms spoke in unison, but the voice was ethereal, and it was impossible to tell where it originated.
"Speak!" Huoyun Xieshen said through gritted teeth.
"The Evil God is so bellicose, I wonder why you don't fight the Rakshasa Cult leader. If I remember correctly, this person is also a powerhouse standing at the peak of the world and has even inherited the title of 'Huoyun Xieshen'. If you don't fight him, could it be that he is your illegitimate son?"
In this world, 'Huoyun Xieshen' does not refer to any single person, but is a synonym for the number one expert of the Eastern evil path. Anyone publicly recognized as the number one expert of the evil path is crowned with the title of 'Huoyun Xieshen', a tradition that has existed for over a thousand years.
After this old Evil God retired, the title of Evil God fell to the leader of the Rakshasa Cult. In terms of strength, I fear the Rakshasa Cult leader is not necessarily beneath the old Evil God.
"Hmph, that guy is even more cowardly than you; he never meets me." Huoyun Xieshen snorted coldly, his palms striking like a storm, continuously tearing apart the phantoms one by one.
"So that's how it is. Many thanks to the Evil God for clearing up my confusion."
Suddenly, all the phantoms paused, then all of them cast themselves toward one figure, merging into one. Yu Liancheng smiled and beckoned to the old Evil God: "Come again!"
"Hmph!" Huoyun Xieshen snorted coldly, his figure lunging over, and he struck out with another punch.
Amidst the roaring sound, the air seemed to turn into waves, spreading outward in ripples, impacting and setting off bursts of shrill wind whistles.
And this time, Yu Liancheng did not dodge or evade, meeting the strike head-on with a punch without any tricks.
Bang!
Amidst a heaven-shaking loud noise, a violent force suddenly erupted, forming a visible ripple that rolled and spread in all directions, scraping a layer off the ground within a radius of ten zhang.
And the ground beneath Yu Liancheng's feet collapsed with a boom, exploding into a circular pit two meters deep and four meters in diameter.
Huoyun Xieshen's expression tightened, his fists rotating, fast as lightning, his punches like a storm, carrying an irresistible power, vowing to blast Yu Liancheng to death right here.
"Good, let me see just how strong the Ultimate Killer King really is."
Yu Liancheng laughed heartily, his hands moving so fast that even afterimages couldn't be seen, just a blur of flowing light, striking back without any gaps.
Bang bang bang bang!!
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged hundreds of blows, earth-shattering, with rolling waves of energy.
The deep pit beneath their feet became larger and deeper under the impact of the force. One after another, walls of earth rose into the sky under the agitation of the force, reaching heights of several meters to tens of meters; often, one wave had not yet subsided before another surged up.
"The battle between top experts is truly this thrilling. I just don't know whose martial arts are superior." Luosha Nu's beautiful eyes watched the intense slaughter before her, shining brightly. In reality, her line of sight was blocked by the towering waves of earth, but she still refused to move even a fraction.
Bang!!
A moment later, another heaven-shaking loud noise rang out, and a figure was sent flying. With Luosha Nu's eyesight, she barely managed to recognize it as Huoyun Xieshen, still spitting blood as he flew backward.
Huoyun Xieshen smashed into the ground dozens of zhang away, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Yu Liancheng's figure reappeared. In this round of exchanges, his black clothes were stained with dust and his face was pale. The ground beneath his feet had sunk into a pit of tens of meters, shattered and broken, as if it had been struck by hundreds of bombs simultaneously.
"In a head-on fight, the old Evil God is actually not his match?" Luosha Nu's brows furrowed, but they suddenly smoothed out: "However, the Evil God still has his trump card technique that he hasn't used yet; the outcome is not yet decided."
Gu, gu, gu...
Low, deep rumbles suddenly sounded, like muffled thunder continuously exploding. Even an expert like Luosha Nu felt a tightness in her chest and shortness of breath, with a sense of her Qi and Blood churning.
The dust gradually settled. Luosha Nu saw Huoyun Xieshen crouching on the ground, his hands bent level with his shoulders, his neck swollen to twice its previous size, blood vessels emerging, veins bulging, and his Adam's apple making a loud sound like a toad.
"It's the Toad Technique!" Luosha Nu was delighted. She knew the "Toad Technique" was the old Evil God's signature ultimate skill; although it lacked variety, it was the most fierce and pure martial art in the world, and its destructive power was rare in the world.
Moreover, the longer this martial art stored power, the more terrifying the force it would erupt with.
Gu!!
Huoyun Xieshen had stored his power to the limit, suddenly exhaling and shouting, emitting a roar like a bolt of lightning from a clear sky.
Afterward, his legs kicked the ground fiercely. As the ground shattered, his entire body shot toward Yu Liancheng like a cannonball, his palms pushing forward violently, the invisible palm force tearing through the air, bringing with it a visible transparent ripple.
This "Ultimate Killer King" had finally brought out his signature ultimate skill.
