I slay demons and monsters in a bizarre city.

Chapter 55 The Qi of Heaven and Earth! One-Punch Kill?

Zhou Lei is the overall champion of the National College Boxing League. If it weren't for his opponent sabotaging him during his second run to the finals, he would have been completely defeated.

Zhou Lei's ability to win consecutive championships means he has no one to blame but himself for being sabotaged.

In the first National Boxing League, Zhou Lei was invincible, defeating the vast majority of competitors with his left straight punch and right hook.

Until the quarterfinals, Zhou Lei used only one hand to punch. His opponents couldn't last more than a minute before being knocked down and sent to the hospital. Those with better resistance to blows would suffer a concussion, but more than half of them died in the hospital's intensive care unit.

The final match was nothing short of a miracle, with Zhou Lei boasting that he could knock out his opponent with just three punches.

With just one punch, he blinded his opponent in one eye.

The night before the second National Championship Challenge, his opponent orchestrated a scheme to send him a stunningly beautiful woman. This gorgeous woman was of mixed race, with an incredibly hot figure—a large bottom, a narrow waist, and prominent collarbones. Although she had a distinctly effeminate face, Zhou Lei was still attracted to her. Furthermore, this beautiful woman had slipped an aphrodisiac into Zhou Lei's drink at the coffee shop.

That's right, it happened while Zhou Lei was in the bathroom urinating.

Zhou Lei was no pushover either. While the pretty girl went to the restroom to touch up her makeup, he also drugged her with an aphrodisiac. It can be said that neither of them were easy to deal with.

The night before the match, Zhou Lei was so exhausted that he didn't get any sleep at all...

Gu Chao beckoned to Li Changgeng with his finger and said provocatively, "Dare you? Two million. If you beat me, you can get it, and you can also attend the midnight adventure party organized by Young Master Gu Chao for free and meet Li Zhiman."

"To tell you the truth, I'm practically a half-master of internal energy martial arts, and I wouldn't bother participating in any boxing matches now."

After drinking the Meng Po soup, Li Changgeng experienced an extraordinary tempering of his muscles and bones. The human body has more than 300 acupoints, ten of which can absorb the Qi of heaven and earth. After the Eternal Night Mist descends, in addition to evil spirits, ghosts, vampires, and monsters, there is another type of person who possesses the bloodline of ancient martial artists, meaning they can cultivate ancient martial arts by absorbing the Qi of heaven and earth.

These ten acupoints are also known as "one palace and nine orifices".

The first palace is the Niwan Palace, located three inches deep between the eyebrows, the place where the third eye opens, the residence of the primordial spirit, the palace of transcending the divine consciousness, the palace of refining the spirit and returning to emptiness, and the place where the divine seal is located.

As for the nine orifices, they are: Juque, Qihai, etc.

Furthermore, many cultivators who had been secretly cultivating in the city used this eternal night to improve their cultivation level, and quite a few even ascended to immortality. The photos circulating online, and even the videos of those who ascended being struck by lightning and turned into fireballs, are all genuine.

Li Changgeng was unaware that the ten major acupoints in his body had slowly awakened and begun to absorb and refine the Qi of heaven and earth without his knowledge. This dark red mist contained a great deal of Qi of heaven and earth.

After drinking the Meng Po soup this time, he no longer felt the oppression and suffocation he had felt before when he breathed in the air. Instead, he felt very relaxed. Li Changgeng could now kill a 200-pound calf with a single punch without any effort.

The Meng Po soup's refining effect on the Qi of Heaven and Earth is an invisible entity.

Li Changgeng's physical strength is comparable to that of a martial artist, and his speed and strength are not weak either. However, he has not yet reached the point where his punches are as fast as the wind and his fists can kill. He is more than capable of dealing with ordinary people.

Gu Chao still wore that meaningful smile. In his eyes, Li Changgeng was just an ant, and his death was meaningless. Such a lowly person was born to contribute wealth to them, the top tycoons.

If Li Zhiman hadn't insisted that Li Changgeng go, Gu Chao wouldn't have come to this slum-like place to find Li Changgeng.

"Zhou Lei, stop messing around. You could punch Li Changgeng so hard his head would be deformed. He can't go, no way!" Gu Chao was just reminding Zhou Lei not to go too far. Even if he crippled Li Changgeng, let alone killed him, Li Zhiman still wouldn't go.

Li Changgeng's family was incredibly poor. They only had a bed, a computer desk and chair, a water heater, an electric cooker, a light bulb, and a cloth wardrobe. Besides that, there were two photos hanging on the wall: one of him and Li Ying, and the other a family portrait of the four of them. Li Ying was not only beautiful, but her genetic sequence was also nearly perfect. If she could conceive a child, she would be absolutely perfect.

Gu Chao's only problem was that he was rich and powerful, but he couldn't understand why Li Zhiman had no feelings for him, but instead had a subtle, unspoken affection for Li Changgeng!

“Young Master Gu Chao, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. Li Changgeng, that little dog, doesn’t dare to challenge me at all. How about I give you three moves?” Zhou Lei smiled and stared disdainfully at Li Changgeng’s slightly pale face. “I think there’s no point in you living. I’ll send you to the Naihe Bridge in Fengdu City to be reincarnated and go through the cycle of reincarnation.”

"Shallow, shallow, nothing at all."

"I'll stand right here and not fight back. I'll let you hit me ten times. If you can hit me, you win!"

Li Changgeng remained extremely calm. KMS Games also had strict rules: no fighting or brawling was allowed unless one's life was in imminent danger. Violation of these rules would result in dismissal and a hefty fine!
There's no way around it; Black Sea City has changed. It's extremely difficult to have a stable salary now. Moreover, Li Changgeng needs money, a lot of money, to ensure his sister's life continues. Perhaps one day, the Eternal Night Mist will dissipate.

My sister will wake up, and my parents will come back.

What a coincidence! Li Changgeng just returned from the Naihe Bridge in Fengdu City.

"I've been to the Bridge of Helplessness more than once! I'll be attending your midnight adventure party; just send me the address." Li Changgeng didn't want to reveal too much. He summoned Octopus Girl, Nine-Tailed Green Fox, Black Goat, and Skeleton Reaper—any one of them could instantly kill them. Li Changgeng wouldn't do this unless absolutely necessary; he had never killed anyone in real life.

Zhou Lei was manageable, but Gu Chao's family's biotechnology company was very powerful, so Li Changgeng could only put up with it for the time being.

"Damn it! Do you think I'm an idiot? I've been to Fengdu City, and I even said I was the Monkey King, Sun Wukong! Have you lost your mind? You have to beat me to go to the Midnight Challenge Party and get two million!"

Gu Chao tensed his muscles, rolled his tongue inside his mouth, and coughed up a mouthful of thick phlegm mixed with saliva.

puff!
He vomited on the family photo hanging on the bedside table.

Li Changgeng misses his parents and longs for his younger sister, Li Ying, to wake up so that the family can return to their simple and happy life.

Every morning when I wake up, the first thing I do is look at those two photos.

This photo is more important than his life.

Zhou Lei actually spat out two mouthfuls of thick phlegm?!
Li Changgeng couldn't help but clench his fists...

"Damn, what the hell! This guy's got some nerve! Come on, hit me, you idiot!" Zhou Lei yelled, his face flushed red, "You little rascal..."

boom!
Li Changgeng threw a punch, and Zhou Lei only saw a faint shadow of the fist. His head tilted to one side, his jawbone deformed, and more than a dozen bloodstained teeth sprayed out. His vision went black, and he collapsed to the ground...

Li Changgeng's punch shattered Zhou Lei's pupils.

Enraged, Li Changgeng grabbed Zhou Lei's hair and dragged him like a chick, pressing Zhou Lei's deformed, blood-stained head against the photograph.

"Lick it clean!!!"
