This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 687 Martial Ancestor

Chapter 687 Martial Ancestor
The harsh winter in Cologne weighed heavily on every corner, like a lead weight.

Less than half a month after the enemy army swept through the Kingdom of Seferon like divine punishment and the news of the fall of the royal city arrived, this small town in the heart of the country was completely cut off from the outside world.

Panic spreads like a plague, but what gnaws at people's hearts even more than panic is hunger!

The old blacksmith Hank's charcoal stove had long since gone cold, and the last bit of black bread mixed with sawdust in the grocery store had been gone five days ago.

In the tavern, the former boisterousness of drunkards was replaced by deathly silence, and people huddled in the corners like ghosts, their eyes vacant.

Hans lay at home, his stomach burning.

The image of the devastating silver moon on the coastline and that god-like figure kept replaying in his mind.

He was once grateful to have escaped from the clutches of the evil god and returned to his hometown, but now he seems to have fallen into another, more desperate prison.

"We can't wait any longer, we have to go out and find food!"

Hans got out of bed and made up his mind.

"Are you crazy? What if we encounter enemy troops?"

His wife stopped him immediately.

After the capital was captured, the town received no further information from the outside world.

Postmen, telegrams, telephones, caravans—all communication was cut off.

Everything outside the town became unknown.

There might be a war going on outside, and the armies of evil gods are rampaging everywhere!
"Being killed is better than sitting here waiting to die!"

Hans gritted his teeth and said.

Even if a soldier chooses to desert, it doesn't mean that all his courage has vanished.

"Then let's go together."

The wife said.

"No, what about the child?"

Hans refused.

I'm afraid you won't come back, I'm afraid I'll never see you again.

The wife couldn't help but start crying.

Hans embraced his wife, feeling utterly powerless.

In the face of such a war, ordinary soldiers and civilians can never decide their own fate.

dong dong dong-

The ground suddenly trembled slightly.

Hans's expression changed drastically, and he rushed to the window to look outside.

"what happened?"

The wife asked.

"It's cavalry! A large contingent of cavalry!"

Hans's tone was filled with fear.

At this time, a large cavalry force appeared in the town of Kolomb. There was a high probability that it was not the royal army, but the enemy army!

Sure enough, upon seeing that blue flag, Hans was utterly devastated.

"It's over."

He turned around, found his son, and scooped him up in his arms. "Quick, take the child and hide in the cellar!"

"how about you?"

His wife was also terrified.

Hans: "Let me take another look. You all better find cover!"

After his wife and children had taken cover, the enemy cavalry had already arrived at the town of Cologne.

The town was deserted; everyone had taken refuge indoors.

Behind the window cracks and behind the door panels, pairs of terrified eyes crowded together.

The cavalry circled the town once, seemingly observing something.

The cavalry then rode into the town, quickly dispersing and occupying key points at the town entrance and main streets. Their movements were precise and efficient, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.

Hans now had a hunting rifle in his hand, and he believed that many people in the town were also armed at that moment.

He noticed that these cavalrymen were not carrying firearms, and the weapons they were using were still cold weapons.

But for some reason, the sense of oppression he felt from this cavalry was even stronger than that from the fully armed guards of the royal city!

"Are they all superhumans?"

Such a terrible thought flashed through Hans's mind.

If that's the case, the town of Cologne will be powerless against this cavalry force.

A mere few dozen pistols and shotguns are a joke in the face of such a large number of superhumans!
The atmosphere in the town grew increasingly tense, and no one dared to fire the first shot.

However, the expected burning, killing, and looting did not occur.

A moment later, three large trucks drove into the town.

The soldiers got out of the trucks and began unloading the cargo.

What was unloaded were not swords and guns, but bulging sacks of grain and bundles of dried meat.

Everyone was stunned, wondering if they were hallucinating from hunger.

An officer on horseback arrived at the open space, his gaze sweeping over the faces hidden behind the doors and windows, faces etched with surprise and fear. He spoke in broken but clear Severn, as if reading an official document:

"The Great Blue Dynasty has already occupied this place!"

"From today onwards, as long as you acknowledge yourselves as subjects of the Great Blue Dynasty, you can receive food for free!"

His voice, though not loud, carried an undeniable authority and clearly resonated throughout the town.

"Is the army of an evil god being given rations?"

Someone murmured, their voice filled with a sense of absurdity.

A stalemate has begun.

No one dared to leave the house, but the instinct of hunger was screaming wildly.

Hans stared intently at the sacks of grain, his chest heaving violently as hatred and hunger battled fiercely within him.

He witnessed firsthand how that evil god destroyed the coastline, instantly killing tens of thousands of people!
That was by no means a benevolent almsgiver.

But as he looked at the food outside, his fist slowly loosened.

In the suffocating silence, a figure stepped out of the house.

He was the poorest, lame old Harvey in town.

Hunger completely overwhelmed his fear. Like a desperate beast, with red eyes, he staggered toward the nearest bag of grain.

Several soldiers immediately stepped forward to stop him and pinned him to the ground.

A suppressed gasp rippled through the crowd.

However, the soldiers made no further move, and the officer shouted:

"You just need to loudly proclaim that you are a citizen of the Great Blue Dynasty, and you can take your share of food."

Hunger overwhelmed his last shred of reason. Old Harvey, who harbored resentment towards the nobles and had little sense of belonging to the country, roared:

"I am a citizen of the Great Blue Dynasty! I am willing to join the Great Blue Dynasty!"

After the shouting, a soldier handed him a bag containing bread and jerky.

Taking the bag, old Harvey immediately began to wolf down the food.

While he was eating, he suddenly burst into tears.

The heart-wrenching cries completely shattered the spirits of those who were still hesitating.

More and more people came out of their houses and to the food distribution area.

"I am a citizen of the Great Blue Dynasty! I am willing to join the Great Blue Dynasty!"

"."

No one noticed two figures looking down at everything happening below from above the town.

"So the Eastern Continent has already invaded the Western Continent. No wonder they wanted to wake us up."

The burly man looked down and said, "It seems that martial arts have developed quite well in later generations. The implants in these people's bodies are very sophisticated."

The swordsman beside him looked in the direction of the royal city:

"The lower limit of martial arts has indeed increased a lot, but I wonder what the upper limit is?" "Hahaha!"

The burly man laughed heartily, "I'll go take a look right now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he streaked across the sky like a shooting star, flying straight towards the royal city.

In the royal city.

Two days ago, Li Fei sensed the crisis through his Qi Luck Perception and notified the other two armies. He has remained in the royal city ever since.

Inside the room, Li Fei, who was cultivating, opened his eyes:

"coming!"

He disappeared from the room and appeared in the sky above the royal city.

In the southwest, a magnificent aura, like a ferocious beast galloping across the ancient and desolate land, openly proclaimed its arrival to this world!

Li Fei frowned slightly, and after flashing through the air a few times using the [Boundless Distance] technique, he left the royal city.

The two met high in the sky, more than sixty miles outside the royal city.

Li Fei was stunned when he saw who it was.

"Martial Ancestor?!"

The newcomer was exactly the same as the man who called himself 'Martial Ancestor' that he saw in the illusion preserved in the crystal inside the Buddha statue!
It's not just similar in appearance, but also in spirit!
"Oh, it seems you've seen me before?"

The Martial Ancestor did not rush to make a move, but smiled and said, "Could it be that there are also legends about Lao Tzu in later generations?"

Hearing this, Li Fei became even more certain of the other party's identity:
"No legends about our predecessors have been passed down to later generations. I saw our predecessors in the illusion left by the Buddha."

"Buddha? That guy actually calls himself Buddha and ancestor, I'm so envious!"

"Senior, why are you here?"

How could a person from a thousand years ago still be alive today?
Even at the level of Li Fei and Lin Tianyi, their lifespan is still only three hundred years.

Unless the other party has already reached the summit.

However, in Li Fei's perception, the Martial Ancestor in front of him was clearly still at the peak level.

"That's a complicated matter."

The Martial Ancestor's smile vanished. "All you need to know is that I am now your enemy!"

Li Fei frowned.

He held in high esteem human ancestors such as the Taoist Ancestor, the Buddha Ancestor, and the Martial Ancestor.

Without the sacrifices of these people, there would be no humankind as we know it today.

Therefore, Li Fei did not want to fight these people to the death.

"What, are you afraid I'll beat you to death?"

The Martial Ancestor's aura began to rise:
"No need to hold back!"

"I'm here today to either kill you or be killed by you—"

As soon as he finished speaking, Martial Ancestor vanished from the spot.

Boom——! ! !
Thunder roared, shaking heaven and earth.

A spatial rift appeared in the sky, like a black line, stretching straight to Li Fei.

Martial Ancestor appeared in front of Li Fei and punched him in the face with his right fist, but it was blocked by a golden light and could not get any closer.

"Huh? Your Dao principles?"

The Martial Ancestor showed a look of surprise.

The dozen or so wounds on his body were now bursting with different Daoist auras!

Li Fei was also somewhat surprised.

He had discovered in the illusion that the aura contained in the dozen or so wounds on the Martial Ancestor's body belonged to a tenth-grade exotic beast that possessed the laws of the Dao!

When blocking Wu Zu's punch, Li Fei used the [Unique Technique].

The result was as if a dozen top-tier experts were attacking him simultaneously, and even the "Unique Law" technique couldn't suppress all the power of the Dao.

This is the first time, apart from Lin Tianyi, that someone has been able to maintain peak combat power under the suppression of Li Fei's [Only I Have the Law]!
"That's more like it! Let's do it again—"

Wu Zu laughed and thrust out his left fist again.

Li Fei stopped 'giving in' and retaliated with a punch.

A ray of brilliant sunlight pierced directly through the Martial Ancestor's chest!
The opponent flew backward, blood staining the sky.

After being knocked back over a thousand meters by Li Fei's punch, Wu Zu finally regained his footing.

He paid no attention to the bloody hole in his chest and looked at Li Fei with surprise:
"You've got some skills, kid, hahaha, let's go again—"

Before he finished speaking, the blood hole in his chest had healed completely, and a surge of powerful blood and energy burst forth from his body. His intense aura and fist intent were as bright as the sun in the sky!

After the Blood Beads reached level 100, the number of Blood Souls reached 14508.

With the addition of the 3000 blood souls stored in his body's blood spring, Li Fei's total number of blood souls reached an astonishing 17508.

If you were to convert the life force of a Martial Saint into something like 5000 Blood Souls, it would be roughly equivalent to that of a Martial Saint.

Li Fei's vitality is more than three times that of the Martial Saint!
Apart from ninth-grade exotic beasts, there is no creature in this world with a more vigorous life force than Li Fei.

Until the Martial Ancestor appeared.

In Li Fei's perception, the other party's vitality was comparable to that of a ninth-grade exotic beast, and it was more like a humanoid exotic beast than himself!
Moreover, the speed at which these injuries heal is no less than that of a ninth-grade exotic beast!

Li Fei was not surprised by this; he had long known that the other party's strength was extraordinary.

Since he is known as the 'Ancestor of Martial Arts', he may be the first Martial Saint in human history to break through to the pinnacle of martial arts!
As the first person to open up the Great Dao, the feedback he received from the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was immeasurable.

For example, Lin Tianyi, as the first person in human history to successfully integrate magic and martial arts, possessed a Dao principle such as the "Great Dao Leader".

Similarly, if the Martial Ancestor was the first Martial Saint in human history, his Dao, even if not as powerful as the "Master of the Great Dao," would certainly not be much weaker.

Martial Ancestor charged at Li Fei again, this time without holding back, unleashing more than a dozen different Dao principles at the same time!
The surrounding space resembled an ancient war drum being struck by a heavy hammer, groaning under its unbearable weight.

The aura surrounding the Martial Ancestor surged and roared, like a chaotic storm that swept across everything before the creation of the world.

There are no fancy moves; it's just a simple punch thrown forward.

This punch seemed to have stirred up a torrent of heaven and earth!

Wherever the fist passed, the phantoms of ferocious beasts roared, were born, condensed, and pounced forth.

Some ferocious beasts opened their huge mouths, their fangs reaching the sky; others spread their wings, their shadows covering the sky, bringing endless calamity and misfortune.

A ferocious beast roared like thunder, its form resembling a tiger with a human face; the wings of this beast flapped, unleashing a wind of annihilation.
In an instant, more than a dozen phantom images of tenth-grade mythical beasts, symbolizing extreme ferocity, disaster and destruction in ancient times, appeared simultaneously!
They roared, entangled, and fought each other, yet were forcibly bound, compressed, and merged together by an even stronger will.

More than a dozen distinct and malevolent Daoist powers were forcibly fused together, ultimately transforming into a 'monster' that defies description.

It possesses all the characteristics of ferocious beasts, yet transcends them, becoming the embodiment of the concept of 'destruction' itself, transforming into a torrent that devours everything and rushes towards Li Fei!

Faced with Martial Ancestor's powerful attack, Li Fei still responded with "ignorance of the world".

A ray of brilliant sunlight reappeared, and the power of fist energy surged forth, unfolding a vast and boundless 'scroll' in the sky—

The sounds of countless shouts, prayers, farming, and recitations converged into the background noise.

Before the fist strikes, a vast landscape appears out of thin air, with the mighty river surging and flowing endlessly, nurturing life on both banks; the majestic mountains rise and fall, laying the foundation for the earth.

Across the mountains and rivers, majestic cities rise from the ground. On the city walls, countless armored warriors stand with resolute gazes, guarding the lights of countless homes behind them.

Amidst mountains, rivers, and cities, farmers toil in the fields, sweating profusely as they plant rice seedlings, golden waves of grain undulating in the wind; craftsmen hammer and forge in their workshops, sparks flying; students recite aloud in their classrooms; and mothers mend clothes under the lamplight, their eyes filled with tenderness.
If the martial ancestor's fist intent represents absolute bestiality and destruction...

Li Fei's fist intent represents the glory of humanity!
From the ancient wilderness, through arduous pioneering efforts, to the present day of human prosperity.

Two extreme forces collided in the sky.

The ending has already been written by history.

"Thump—!!!!!"

There was no ear-piercing sonic boom, only a muffled, deafening roar, as if two worlds had collided.

The sound transcends the realm of hearing, striking directly into the depths of the soul.

One after another, the beastly shadows were torn apart, and the torrent of destruction was swept away!

The Martial Ancestor was knocked away once again.

This time he was covered in blood, his flesh was mangled, and he had multiple fractures!

"Hahahaha-"

"it is good!!!"

While spitting out blood, Wu Zu burst into loud laughter.

He laughed until tears streamed down his face.
