Walking in the small forest outside of Si Water City. Ye Kong suddenly raised his eyebrows, stopped and shouted, "There is no one in this dark forest, it's time for you to show yourself!"
"As you wish." About a hundred steps in front of him, a strong and honest man walked out. He was wearing loose pants, leggings, and only half of his upper body was covered by an animal skin shirt, revealing his healthy and shiny muscles, making him look brave and fierce.
"So it's you." It seemed that this person was one of Zhang De's disciples from the blacksmith shop. Ye Kong immediately thought of something. He took off the inky shark armor at once.
It had been a long time since he came out of the blacksmith shop, and he hadn't felt anyone following him. Now that this big guy appeared, it must be that Zhang De had done something to the magic tool that he was repairing, which made it so easy for this person to track him.
Since he suspected that Zhang De had done something to him, he wouldn't be able to wear this' ink shark inner armour 'during the fight, and he wouldn't be able to use the newly repaired golden shield and broadsword either. Who knew what other tricks that old geezer Zhang De had put into the magic tool?
Looking at Ye Kong taking off the inky shark armor, Ma Zhaolei said, "Daoist friend, I see that you're still wearing that inky shark armor. Although my master left a strand of divine sense inside, it doesn't affect its defensive function."
Ye Kong had already been tricked by Zhang De, how could he trust this big guy so easily? He took off the inky shark armor and put it in his storage bag, then snorted and said, "A weasel pays respect to a chicken, why are you so kind as to remind me? That Master of yours is really good at acting. Even I was deceived by him. I think your purpose in coming here is to kill me and take my treasure, right? If I'm not wrong, what you want is... my inky shark skin! "
Ma Zhaolei nodded and praised, "Yes, you're indeed a smart person."
"Back then, when he asked me for a small piece of inky shark skin, his purpose wasn't that small piece, he just wanted to use this small piece to prove whether I have more." By now, Ye Kong had already figured out all the details. He shook his head and said, "Sure enough, the cultivators of Cangnan Continent can't be trusted. To think that I actually wanted to help him!"
Ma Zhaolei was an honest person, but he actually blushed at Ye Kong's words. Actually, he didn't want to come, but he couldn't go against his master's orders, so he could only come to snatch the Ink Shark's skin.
"Fellow Daoist, I see that you have a kind heart, and I don't want to kill you … How about this, you leave the Inkfish Shark's skin behind, and I'll take it back to my Master to complete my mission. Everyone will be happy, alright?" said Ma Zhaolei.
Ye Kong was amused by him. "Big guy, people say that I'm an arrogant person, but I think you're even more arrogant. If you were the Yuanying Ancestor, perhaps I would consider your suggestion. But you're only in the fifth layer of Qi Refining, and your cultivation is lower than mine. I really can't see how you can kill me! "
Ma Zhaolei sized up Ye Kong again, then shook his head and said, "You can't beat me."
"I don't believe it!"
"You can try!"
Ye Kong didn't waste any more words with him. He patted his storage pouch, and a long, thin, black magic sword flew out.
"Dark Suo Sword!"
Ye Kong formed a seal with his hand, and opened his mouth. "Rope Transformation!"
The long, thin body of the Dark Suo Sword immediately transformed into a black whip. The head of the whip was as agile as a spirit snake. It trembled, as if it was filled with battle awareness, and as soon as its master gave the command, it would smash the opponent into pieces!
"Go!" Ye Kong lightly shouted, and the Dark Suo Whip transformed into a black light, striking towards Ma Zhaolei's face.
This brat actually didn't even open his spiritual energy barrier when facing a cultivator with a higher realm than him. He really didn't want to live! That was what Ye Kong thought.
"Pa!" The Dark Suo Sword didn't disappoint Ye Kong, and the whip landed solidly on Ma Zhaolei's exposed chest.
However, what surprised Ye Kong was that the barbarian in front of him wasn't injured at all! The Dark Suo Sword was a mid-grade magic weapon. Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator wouldn't dare to take a hit from it without activating a spiritual energy barrier. However, this brat's body was terrifyingly strong. The Dark Suo Sword didn't even leave a white mark on his body.
"I don't believe this!" Ye Kong controlled the Dark Suo Sword, and with another three whips, there was still no reaction. The chest of the big guy in front of him was like a thousand year old iron, and there wasn't even a mark on it.
"Enough!" Ma Zhaolei raised his hand, and grabbed the head of the Dark Suo Whip in his palm.
Ye Kong suddenly twitched, but he didn't move an inch.
"You can't beat me." Ma Zhaolei let go of his hand, and his tone was filled with unparalleled confidence. Then he said, "Fellow Daoist, I'm not afraid to tell you this. Don't think that I'm only at the fifth level of Qi Refinement. Did you know that I didn't use cultivation techniques to reach this level? I used spirit martial arts to reach the fifth level of Qi Refinement! The toughness of my skin is far from what you cultivators can imagine! "
Ye Kong stared blankly. Previously, he had heard from Jiang Wulin that Spirit Martial Arts could only be trained to the second level of Qi Refining Stage. Furthermore, they would not be able to use any spells or tools. Spirit Martial Arts was a type of martial arts that was somewhere between the secular world's martial arts and the Immortal Cultivator's martial arts.
Ma Zhaolei saw Ye Kong's confusion, and he continued, "Perhaps you've heard that spirit martial arts can only reach the second level of Qi Refinement … But that legend is wrong! Those people stopped at the second level of Qi Refinement because they didn't use the correct cultivation technique! My master and I, on the other hand, use the authentic spirit martial body tempering technique … Don't think that you're two levels higher than me on the surface, but in reality, your strength is much weaker than mine! Even a normal Foundation Establishment cultivator isn't my opponent, let alone a seventh level Qi Refinement cultivator like you! "
Using martial arts to enter the Dao, there was indeed some truth to it. Ye Kong nodded. It seemed that the rumors outside couldn't be easily believed. Just like how other people said that people with mixed spiritual roots couldn't break through the early stage of Qi Refinement, didn't he still reach the late stage of Qi Refinement? It seemed that it wasn't impossible to break through to the second level of Qi Refinement through spirit martial arts. The key was the correct cultivation technique.
Seeing Ye Kong's expression, Ma Zhaolei nodded and said, "Alright, you've already seen my strength. Just obediently leave the Ink Shark's skin behind! If it wasn't for the fact that you're a good person, I wouldn't be talking nonsense with you. "
From Ma Zhaolei's point of view, this seventh level Qi Refinement cultivator was already afraid. Seeing his strong physical strength, normal cultivators would retreat.
But what he didn't expect was that this black-faced cultivator actually smiled faintly, took out a flying sword magic weapon from his storage bag, and said, "You're right, normal seventh level Qi Refinement cultivators really can't beat you. But I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, because … I'm not a normal seventh level Qi Refinement cultivator. Normal Foundation Establishment cultivators aren't my opponent either. I want to see how awesome a spirit martial artist who has cultivated to the fifth level of Qi Refinement is! "
This time, Ye Kong took out a magic sword with a handle inlaid with green jade. This was what he got when he stopped the Dog Beating Team at the Barbarian Tribe. The Crow Suo Sword was a more feminine magic weapon, so it would definitely be at a disadvantage against an opponent with a strong body like Ma Zhaolei, so Ye Kong took out this hard sword. This sword was forged from iron essence that was extraordinarily hard, and the handle was inlaid with green jade to increase the hardness of the sword. So, Ye Kong felt that using this sword to fight this big guy head-on couldn't be better.
