Martial arts ascend to the gods

Chapter 496 Blood Sphere

As Zhou Leng spoke, he didn't use any special moves. He simply gathered all his strength, circulated his vast True Qi, and unleashed a punch.

The punch travels at supersonic speed, blasting through the air and creating a visible ring of white mist.

"You..." The blue-skinned siren didn't have time to explain, and quickly cast a spell, forming a huge wall of water in front of her.

boom!
Zhou Leng shattered the water wall with a punch, smashing it into the Great Innate Sea Monster.

In an instant, the necklace around the blue-skinned siren's neck shattered, and her body flew backward.

Zhou Leng kicked off the roof, and with a loud bang, a large hole exploded in the roof. He flew towards the blue-skinned siren like an arrow.

"You're asking for death!" The blue-skinned siren in mid-air roared, and waves tens of meters high surged up, like an apocalyptic tsunami, crashing down on Zhou Leng.

Zhou Leng had been intentionally sensing the power of the siren, so he neither dodged nor avoided it, but instead pushed his palms forward.

The Heavenly Tide Palm of the Ancient River Sect.

The moment his palms touched the waves, Zhou Leng had a strange feeling that the once unfamiliar waves had turned from enemies to friends and were under his control.

Right in the center of the wall-like waves, where the two palms struck, an area ten meters in diameter suddenly transformed into a giant water sphere.

Zhou Leng's palm force was completely integrated into the water sphere, and then the water sphere flew out like a cannonball, smashing towards the blue-skinned siren.

The water sphere was extremely fast, and the blue-skinned siren couldn't comprehend this bizarre power at all. She was a little too slow in her retreat and was hit hard.

boom!
The blue-skinned siren's screams, mixed with the sound of water spheres exploding, echoed through the sky.

Zhou Leng looked closely and saw that the blue-skinned siren's body had smashed through a wall and landed inside a giant's house.

I've tested the buildings here before, and even after countless years of weathering, their hardness is comparable to top-grade concrete structures.

"The water balloon from earlier..."

Zhou Leng vaguely sensed that, thanks to the Starry Sky True Energy, the nature of his true energy underwent a strange change.

Ordinary internal energy can only control the body's power.

But now, true qi seems to be able to control the power of heaven and earth to a certain extent.

This was originally something only a grandmaster or martial saint could do.

These thoughts flashed through his mind, and Zhou Leng rushed into the large hole created by the blue-skinned siren.

The blue-skinned siren, her body a bloody mess, shouted, "We siren's eyesight is better adapted to water. We can't see people clearly from a distance in the air, which is equivalent to your nearsightedness! I'm not provoking you..."

Zhou Leng unleashed a palm strike, and the blue-skinned siren tumbled and fled.

"We've already fought."

Zhou Leng gave the blue-skinned siren no chance and relentlessly pursued her.

The blue-skinned siren looked terrified and dared not take a single blow head-on.

On the eighth move, Zhou Leng used the Heavenly Dragon Flash, striking out with a palm at a speed that the Blue-skinned Siren could not dodge.

Left with no other option, the blue-skinned siren raised its hand to meet the attack.

boom……

The blue-skinned siren's arm exploded into fine blood foam. Before he could scream, Zhou Leng pressed his large hand on his forehead, his true energy surging forth like a dragon's claw.

boom!
The blue-skinned siren's head was crushed, blood splattered, eyeballs rolled to the ground, and teeth scattered.

The blue-skinned siren's aura suddenly condensed and then quickly dissipated.

Zhou Leng collected the spoils from the blue-skinned siren and turned to leave.

A transparent blood sphere, about the size of a ping-pong ball, flew out from the corpse and hovered behind Zhou Leng.

Zhou Leng couldn't see anything at all and continued running towards the direction of the Broken Sky Bone.

Previously, on the shore of Taihu Lake in Shuizhou Demon City, I encountered a powerful innate beastman named Manxinghu, whose strength was similar to this blue-skinned sea monster.

They are both relatively strong Great Innate Realm cultivators, but they are still far from being top-tier Great Innate Realm cultivators.

Last time, Zhou Leng relied entirely on the self-healing ability of the Star Phoenix Rejuvenation Technique to gain an advantage by injuring himself, depleting the power of the Savage Star Tiger, and barely managed to draw. In the end, the Savage Star Tiger was intimidated by the powerful self-healing ability and fled.

If you encounter him again now, you'll suffer the same fate as this blue-skinned siren.

Zhou Leng twisted his neck left and right.

I didn't get to play to my full potential and need a new opponent to test my new level.

Zhou Leng looked ahead.

Soon, soon.

Once you advance to the Grandmaster level, you won't need to be so afraid of anything anymore.

The so-called great clans are merely the power of grandmasters.

Once you advance to Grandmaster, you can use Grandmaster-level methods to solve everything.

The grudge that led to Master Song's physical disability can be resolved by seeking help from a grandmaster.

The same goes for the grudge he had accumulated with his uncle, Ma Xingkong, over the years.

The Heavenly Bone Blood in Zhou Leng's eyes slowly rose.

The power of the Broken Heaven Bone silently erodes everyone.

A growing sense of fighting spirit rose and swayed in the hearts of everyone within a radius of thousands of kilometers.

After running for hundreds of kilometers, a rain of blood-red arrows shattered the sky and hurtled towards them.

Turning his head, he saw a giant, innate, hundred-eyed bow launching a sneak attack from hundreds of meters away.

Zhou Leng, riding the Heavenly Dragon Flash, used exquisite footwork to turn around while running at high speed, dodging the rain of arrows and charging towards the Hundred-Eyed Bow.

The Hundred-Eyed Bow missed its target and immediately fled.

Zhou Leng stomped on the ground, leaving behind a series of large craters as he caught up with the Hundred-Eyed Bow.

With just three moves, he shattered the chest and abdomen of the Hundred-Eyed Bow with a single palm strike.

The Hundred-Eyed Bow is ultimately not good at close combat.

Zhou Leng bent down and put away his magic bag.

At the same time, two transparent blood orbs flew out of the body of the Hundred-Eyed Bow and hovered behind Zhou Leng.

This time, the transparent blood sphere flew past him, but Zhou Leng still couldn't see it.

Zhou Leng continued his journey, constantly encountering sirens, demons, and orcs. Unlike the monsters he encountered at the beginning, some of these monsters seemed more frenzied and warlike, charging straight at him upon sight.

Gradually, the number of blood cells behind him increased.

When the number of blood cells increased to ten, Zhou Leng looked around in confusion.

The strange aura I felt just now vanished in a flash; perhaps it was just my imagination.

Zhou Leng continued running forward, and gradually, most of the monsters he encountered were injured.

These monsters had bloodshot eyes and looked even more insane, but strangely, most of them took a closer look and then turned away.

It took Zhou Leng a while to realize what was happening.

I was completely clean; there wasn't a single scratch on me.

Upon reaching the vicinity of the Broken Sky Bone, amidst such fierce fighting, the fact that no one was injured would raise suspicions, unless a foolish orc mistook them for easy prey. Even a normal Grand Innate expert would be suspicious.

As they drew closer to the Broken Heaven Bone, the bloodlust in their eyes had already accumulated to half its depths.

Like half a glass of red wine.

Suddenly, the sounds of fighting came from ahead.

Zhou Leng ran over, circled around to the corner of a house, and looked toward the source of the sound.

Four human warriors are besieging two demons.

Both of them are at the Great Innate level.

Human warriors held an overwhelming advantage, and the two demons were forced into retreat.

These are two winged horned demons, each with four horns on its head and a pair of fleshy wings on its back, resembling giant black sheep standing upright, over three meters tall.

Below the level of innate ability, ordinary human martial artists would find it difficult to contend with demons.

The initial stage of the Innate Realm is also very difficult, but from the Great Innate Realm onwards, human martial artists, after countless trials and tribulations, are no less capable than ordinary demons.

Zhou Leng scanned the four people.

The two should be warriors from the Dragon Kingdom, one of whom participated in the siege of the Undead Knight at the Water Island base.

The other two are like the warriors of the Southeast Asian countries.

After the Dragon Kingdom became the number one country on Earth, apart from the Elephant Kingdom and the Bear Kingdom, which still wanted to compete for supremacy, the other surrounding small countries completely gave up and their attitude towards the Dragon Kingdom changed drastically, returning to the attitude they had towards their suzerain state hundreds of years ago.

The Southeast Asian countries recognized China's dominant position and formed an alliance. Without the interference of the Demonic Cult, they always followed China's lead.

The four men quickly noticed, turned their heads to look, their eyes filled with a hint of wariness, and continued fighting.

Zhou Leng shouted, "My name is Zhou Leng, from Rucheng..."

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, he said, "I am Xu Ming's friend. I entered from the Dragon World. We agreed to join forces on the Great Battlefield to fight against the demons."

Upon hearing that they were Xu Ming's friends, the two Chinese men's expressions softened, and one of them laughed, "Come on, let's kill these two demon brats. However, you don't seem to be a Great Innate Realm cultivator, so I suggest you focus on defense."

Suddenly, the two demons sprayed blood all over their bodies, forming a blood mist with a radius of tens of meters.

"careful!"

The four of them stepped back in unison.

The two demons broke through the blood mist and sped off into the distance.

"Forget it, we can't catch up."

"Pity."

Four people walked over and briefly introduced themselves.

The two were from China, one named Wang Yunbo and the other named Yu Xiao.

Two men from Southeast Asia, one named Ruan Xiangnan and the other named Hain.

Wang Yunbo glanced at Zhou Leng and said, "The name Zhou Leng is occasionally mentioned in Rucheng and Shuizhou Demon City. However, how did you advance to the muscle level so quickly? Your aura seems very stable, not like you've been forced to grow too fast."

"Not bad, another rare young genius." Yu Xiao nodded in praise.

The other two Southeast Asians looked at Zhou Leng with a mixture of wariness and curiosity, as it was rare to see such a young person with innate muscular talent in Southeast Asia.

"I'm only at the Muscle Stage, no match for you senior brothers who are at the Great Innate Stage," Zhou Leng said modestly.

“You’ll be able to advance to the Great Innate Realm soon, we’re all about the same. Let’s go. Wang Xiong passed by earlier and told us that there’s a humanoid alliance camp in the direction of the Broken Sky Bone. It’ll be safer there.”

The five of them set off together, running towards the direction of the Broken Sky Bone.

All five of them deliberately kept a certain distance from each other.

All four of them were curious about Zhou Leng. They first observed him secretly, and even just by watching him run, they could see many details in his movements.

Soon, the four of them discovered that this young genius had nothing special about him, but both his physique and aura were exceptionally calm, the kind of calm that was frightening.

He seems to be a disciple of a famous teacher.

On the way, the four of them started chatting. Wang Yunbo talked about the previous Heavenly Rank Joint Examination and mentioned the rumors he had heard about Zhou Leng.

Finally, Wang Yunbo said, "After the Heavenly Rank Joint Examination and the Youth Battle, there was no news about you. Even during the previous Water Continent Battle, no one mentioned you. I didn't expect you to advance to the Muscle Innate Realm in such a short time."

The two Chinese men looked normal, while the two Southeast Asian men looked suspicious.

Because demons and cultists sometimes impersonate human warriors.

Zhou Leng said, "In the past few months, I haven't been on Blue Star. I've been wandering around the world of dwarves, giants, treants, and demons. I was lucky and had some fortuitous encounters, which helped me advance to the Innate Muscle and Muscle realm."

"I see. Xu Ming is still as composed as ever, isn't he?"

"Steady? He said 'tiger and bear are both harmful' to our faces, leaving us speechless," Zhou said coldly.

Wang Yunbo and Yu Xiao exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.

“Since he is Xu Ming’s friend, then he is our friend,” Wang Yunbo declared definitively.

Ruan Xiangnan whispered, "Friend Zhou Leng, we also admire Senior Brother Xu Ming. However, with your rapid advancement, you should not only be famous in China, but even renowned throughout the Blue Star. We in Nanyang have never heard of you before."

Zhou Leng glanced at the two Southeast Asians and said slowly, "Because you were lucky."

The two Southeast Asians' expressions changed slightly, but they did not react.

Wang Yunbo laughed and said, "No wonder he's Xu Ming's friend, his temperament is just right."
