Throughout the entire process, the split shadows created a strong murderous aura to attract Lou Cheng's senses. Gu Jianxi, who had sneaked into the ground at some point in time, concealed his aura, spirit, and other senses, as though he had turned into a real rock. Only at the moment of the surprise attack did he erupt with an earth-shattering explosion.
He had put in so much effort just to hide from Lou Cheng's ability to foresee danger!
However, Gu Jianxi had underestimated the uniqueness of Cultivation. Other than being countered by Ge Hui's Dharma Access from Cultivation once, Lou Cheng had never failed. After his third awakening and making the great leap, he even had a hint of the "Cicada Senses Before the Autumn Wind" from the Realm of Martial Arts, the Realm of the Mighty Prowess.
The Clown's concealment of his aura was excellent. Coupled with the external "Soul of the Dead" technique to confuse others, it was indeed perfect. However, the unusual slight vibrations on the ground still alerted Lou Cheng. As he clenched his fist and smashed diagonally, he took the opportunity to take a step forward, narrowly avoiding his vital organs.
Amidst the splattering of mud and stones, he spread his arms, lifted his right knee, swung his calf, and used the tip of his foot to kick Gu Jianxi's fist that was flying towards the sky.
This seemingly ordinary "Roc Spreads Its Wings" had the power of "Internal Explosion" hidden within it!
Lou Cheng knew that the Clown had incorporated a little of the Ice Sect's techniques and had extremely strong resistance to cold. In a split second, he naturally leaned towards using the Fire Sect's techniques.
For Mighty Ones who had made the great leap, their mental strength was strong, and visualization was easy and fast. They could easily execute simplified Physical Invulnerability moves!
Poof!
Lou Cheng's tip of his foot "pecked" the side of Gu Jianxi's fist and immediately channeled the hidden Emperor Yan Force.
At this moment, a dark green glow erupted from the Clown's fist and turned into dancing butterflies. Every "butterfly" took away part of the Flame Force and started burning on its own. It was green and cold, like the soul-stirring phosphorescence in a mass grave.
Seeing that the "Internal Explosion" was neutralized, Lou Cheng immediately retracted his leg and wanted to step out with his left foot to strike the "Lord Emperor's Purple Flame" into the ground to awaken the volcano.
Just as he was about to retract his right leg, Gu Jianxi suddenly "lost" most of his weight, turning into a sticky plaster or a ghost that haunted the human body. He stuck his fist to the tip of Lou Cheng's foot, as though he wanted to be lifted by Lou Cheng. Not only would he avoid the subsequent attacks directed at the ground, but he could also assassinate Lou Cheng at close range.
Seeing this, Lou Cheng instantly changed his strategy. While he was retracting his right leg, his body was already in the air, and his left leg kicked out continuously!
In that instant, Gu Jianxi suddenly retracted his exposed arm. Blurry shadows that resembled evil spirits surged out from the cracks in the ground and "crashed" into Lou Cheng one after another.
Rumble!
The Emperor Yan Force gathered in Lou Cheng's left leg exploded. Crimson, white, and purple flames rolled out and swept across, melting many of the ghosts.
However, there was an endless stream of evil spirits. Lou Cheng, who was struggling to move in midair, looked like he was about to lose his defensive line and become a live target!
His expression didn't change. His outstretched hands hung down naturally, forming a seal in front of him. He exhaled and said,
"Formation!"
His deep voice reverberated. The air around the cracks instantly froze, turning into an invisible cage. The evil spirits were sealed underground, unable to break free for a while.
Bam! Beside Lou Cheng, mud and rocks splattered. A black shadow soared into the sky. It was none other than the Clown, Gu Jianxi.
His eyes were dark green. He didn't clench his right hand to punch, slap, or chop. Instead, he used his middle finger as the tip of a sword and stabbed at Lou Cheng's ribs. His fingernails glowed green, and his skin was grayish-white.
At this moment, Lou Cheng's feet had yet to touch the ground, and his hands had just formed a seal. His momentum was exhausted. He couldn't dodge or block.
Gu Jianxi didn't place all his hopes on blinding Lou Cheng's sense of danger. He used the techniques of "Undead Will Not Die" and "Hundred Ghosts Parade" to create this perfect opportunity to deliver a fatal blow!
The third move of the Death Sect, Yama's Invitation!
Lou Cheng was very clear that when facing the Physical Invulnerability moves of the Death Sect, it was best not to have the thought of exchanging injuries for victory. Once he failed to block the move, he would be hit by the unguarded body. Even if it wasn't a vital point, it would still affect his vital points!
Under normal circumstances, even if his arms or legs were broken, with the Physical Invulnerability Mighty One's control over his body, even if they couldn't regrow them, as long as they pressed the missing part back to its original position in time, they would still be able to heal without any repercussions. As for "minor injuries" like a hole in the stomach or a collapsed shoulder, they would be treated as normal. However, when facing a Martial Artist who practiced the unique skills of the Death Sect, such minor injuries could still be fatal!
At this critical juncture, Lou Cheng's hands, which were forming the seal, changed naturally. The seal script in his mind reappeared.
He aimed at Gu Jianxi and spoke in a dignified but deep voice,
"Army!"
This was the complete "Army" Formula. It was two to three times stronger than the simplified version that only relied on the stimulation of Qi and blood.
The murderous aura surged into the sky as thousands of sharp points converged. The cold and merciless "arrows" shot towards Gu Jianxi's body, making him feel as though he was in a desperate situation and was ambushed from all sides.
As a Martial Artist who had walked out from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, The Clown's attack only paused for a moment before he got rid of the influence. Such a scene wasn't only seen in illusions, he had also experienced it in reality!
However, Lou Cheng seized the opportunity and detonated a small amount of Emperor Yan Force. His body was like a rocket that was launched twice. He moved horizontally by one foot in the air and landed on the ground.
Without giving Gu Jianxi any time to adjust his attack, he changed the seal with his hands again. He exhaled deeply and said,
"Alright!"
He landed mysteriously and connected heaven and earth. With a tap of his heel, Lou Cheng flew backwards at a speed so fast that his afterimages could be seen.
He didn't take the opportunity to counterattack. Instead, he took the opportunity to widen the distance between them. This was because the Death Sect Martial Artists had to pay a certain price for their terrifying attacks. They were weaker in endurance battles!
Seeing Lou Cheng closing in and quickly "shrinking", Gu Jianxi's eyes remained cold. He raised his left hand, bent his fingers, and knocked heavily towards the void in front of him with his joints as though he was knocking on a door.
Dong!
Lou Cheng, who was retreating rapidly, felt his "Ice Heart" being hit by an invisible hammer. It shattered into pieces and surged violently.
A strong sense of fear emerged. His body trembled slightly and stiffened.
The first move of the Death Sect, "Midnight Ghost Knocks on the Door"!
This move was executed smoothly by Gu Jianxi and didn't require much preparation. Furthermore, he had referenced the unique skills of the Ice Sect and made targeted improvements to counter the "Enemy Heart Freezing Move"!
Fear was like a tidal wave, crazily slapping at Lou Cheng's will. However, he had been through a lot and managed to hold on. Once again, he formed a "Forward"!
Without complementing his voice, Lou Cheng merely changed his hand seals. With a momentum of no return, Lou Cheng suppressed the fear in his heart and formed the "Ice Heart" once again.
At this moment, Gu Jianxi had already closed in like a ghost. With a shake of his right arm, his arm swelled and his fist swung sideways.
Lou Cheng had just raised his arm to block when he suddenly sensed danger. A layer of ice formed on his right leg and he retracted it out of reflex.
It wasn't until this moment that he realized that the Clown was kicking from above. However, that kick was soundless and undetectable to his senses.
The seventh move of the Death Sect, Shadowless Killing Kick!
Bam!
Before Gu Jianxi's fist landed on Lou Cheng's raised forearm, his left leg had already landed on Lou Cheng's whip leg. The thick layer of ice shattered instantly, turning into grayish-white powder that dissipated into the air. It took a few seconds for it to melt.
Bam! The Clown's fist was blocked and stopped. However, Lou Cheng felt a chill invade his body. It ignored the normal Flame Force and made his arms feel as though they were temporarily "dead".
This was a double trap. Gu Jianxi had prepared it specifically for Lou Cheng, who had a premonition of danger. He had weakened the power of the Shadowless Killing Kick and enhanced his "Yama Force" with the "Undying Soul" technique.
Originally, the upper part was illusory while the lower part was solid. Now, the lower part was 70% and the upper part was 30%!
Lou Cheng didn't panic when he lost feeling in his two arms. Instead, he twisted his waist and swung his right arm out. It was a Single Whip.
At the same time, he took a step forward with both hands and feet. With a heavy step, he created a field of blazing faint purple flames. They turned into a wall of flames and pushed towards Gu Jianxi.
It was the Fire Sect's "Burning Mountain and Evaporating Lake" technique!
At this moment, Gu Jianxi revealed a stiff smile. Instead of retreating, he advanced. He didn't put up any more defenses and just turned his body to avoid the Single Whip.
Bam! The purple wall of flames slammed into his legs and ignited them. However, Gu Jianxi seemed to have turned into a corpse. He had lost his sense of pain and didn't show any signs of stopping.
His left hand shot out like a cobra and jabbed towards Lou Cheng, who had already used up all his moves. He didn't slow down at all and seemed to have infused all his strength into it.
At such a close distance, such an attack arrived in an instant. Lou Cheng only had time to pull his body back and avoid the attack on his neck.
Pfft!
Gu Jianxi's left index finger was pressed against Lou Cheng's shoulder. Extreme danger was contained within.
The ninth move of the Death Sect, "Killer Strike, Final Smile"!
Lou Cheng's mind raced. He looked at the Clown's completely charred legs and the hair between his legs that was covered in red flames. He couldn't help but feel a twinge in his balls.
I thought I was good at exchanging injuries for victory and was an expert in life and death battles. However, there's always someone better out there. There's always someone more ruthless!
If this move of mine was a little more powerful … He gasped and stopped resisting. He understood that Gu Jianxi was taking the risk by relying on the uniqueness of the body of the dead and the strong self-healing ability of a Physical Invulnerability Martial Artist.
Of course, if it was a life and death battle, with his ruthlessness, he would have done the same even if he didn't have these and the risk was extremely high.
This was the Clown, Gu Jianxi.
The corner of the referee's mouth twitched. He quickly raised his right hand and shouted,
"Gu Jianxi wins!"
Bits of flames fell and the dark green covered the charred black, like fashionable trousers.
