Fu Renyi's eyes flickered. It was obvious that his strength had increased again. He walked to Zhang Kui and said in a low voice, "I know you are from the Zhang family of Jiangbei. However, you did not cultivate in your family. Instead, you joined the army when you were young and became a physical master at such a young age. Your talent and willpower are not bad. What a pity."
Zhang Kui opened his eyes wide and made a gurgling sound in his throat. His skin quickly turned red and even his eyes were covered by a red glow.
Fu Renyi lowered his head and looked at him strangely. He laughed disdainfully and waved his hand to kill him. Suddenly, he felt the person in his hand turn from stiff to soft. His heart was alarmed. He felt a cold sensation under his armpit and knew that he had been stabbed. He hurriedly threw him away and dodged to the side.
Fu Renyi lowered his head and looked at the wound under his armpit. He looked at Zhang Kui in surprise and said, "Good boy. You cured the Ice God's poison so quickly."
Zhang Kui spat out a mouthful of phlegm and cursed, "Die, you old bastard." He picked up a long saber on the ground and waved it at Fu Renyi.
Fu Renyi raised his hand and greeted him with a slanted palm.
With a loud clang, Zhang Kui was sent flying. He hurriedly got up and stared at the old bastard cautiously. He saw that Fu Renyi's palm had turned as black as ink and had a metallic luster. Its strength was not inferior to any weapon.
He tried his best to stimulate the energy in his body. Wisps of green smoke rose and his skin and hair began to curl.
Fu Renyi said in surprise, "I didn't expect you to cultivate a fire attribute physical technique. No wonder you could cure the Ice God's poison."
Zhang Kui carefully held the long saber in his hand. As the energy in his body seeped into it, the long saber emitted a faint red glow. The cold stone room became scorching hot. He cultivated both earth and fire attributes. The earth attribute gave him powerful strength and the fire attribute gave him unparalleled explosive power. Although he had just become a physical master, his fighting strength was not below that of an intermediate physical master.
Zhang Kui felt the violent fire attribute energy in his body dispersing the Ice God's poison. At the same time, his sluggish thoughts became clearer. He felt confident again. He took a deep breath and slashed at Fu Renyi again.
Fu Renyi sneered and raised his palm to meet the attack again.
"Ding ding ding."
In the underground space, two ghostly figures were entangled with each other, exchanging blows several times in an instant. Both of them were inclined towards physical cultivation, and both of them focused on speed and strength in close combat.
Zhang Kui's saber technique was a system of its own. Not only was it as fast as lightning, but it was also extremely nimble. In the end, his entire body revolved around Fu Ren Yi and slashed at him from various inconceivable angles.
On the other hand, Fu Renyi gradually slowed down and became as still as a mountain. He realized that he was actually not as fast as the boorish man in front of him. He could only focus on defense. His opponent's swift attacks would definitely not last long.
The two people inside the cage watched the battle anxiously. They never thought that the careless Zhang Kui would be so powerful. Although they did not know what had happened to Fu Ren Yi, they knew that he had the strength of an Advanced Physique Master.
Zhang Kui, on the other hand, was having a hard time. His lightning-fast attack was indeed demanding on his physical fitness. Moreover, every time he clashed with the old man, he would feel a huge recoil that numbed his arm. The recoil was getting stronger and stronger. The old man in front of him was like a volcano that was about to erupt. Once it reached a critical point, it would erupt with destructive power.
The key point was that he was not in his best condition. His body was still a little stiff, and he could only exert 50% of his strength at most.
After a while, Fu Renyi's eyes became brighter and brighter. He could not help but praise, "Good boy, I am a little reluctant to kill you. Keeping you as a shell is much better than my current body!"
After saying that, a black light flashed in Fu Renyi's eyes, and the surrounding air suddenly became viscous. Zhang Kui's figure couldn't help but slow down. At this moment, Fu Renyi had already shot out a palm strike towards his chest.
The surrounding air was like an invisible shackle that tightly bound Zhang Kui in place. There was no way he could avoid this palm. At this moment, his expression suddenly became sluggish. Then, a dazzling starlight lit up.
Fu Renyi's palm was about to hit Zhang Kui's chest, but his body suddenly stopped. He could not hit Zhang Kui with his palm. He felt as if there was an invisible shackle that tightly bound him. The telekinetic force field that he had used just now seemed to be controlled by his opponent, and now it was being used on him.
Humans were indeed the best of all things. The black light in his eyes reappeared. He shouted, "Open for me!" Swish … A burst of air-tearing sound was heard. His palm had already hit Zhang Kui's chest.
"Bang!" Zhang Kui was like a kite with a broken string. He was sent flying against the rock wall.
Fu Renyi finally heaved a sigh of relief. He could feel that he had shattered this boy's inner body. This body was too old, and its energy was almost exhausted. Otherwise, he would not have had to spend so much effort.
This battle had also consumed a lot of his energy. He stood on the spot and rested for a while before slowly walking to Ma Xiaojia. He said gently, "Little girl, to tell you the truth, my original body is also a woman. It is better to integrate with a female. Don't resist. The reincarnation of heaven and earth is about to restart. Only by becoming one with me can you avoid reincarnation. You can also obtain the opportunity to become a god."
Seeing that Zhang Kui was killed by him, Ma Xiaojia and Fu Renyi were completely disheartened. She glanced at Fu Renyi indifferently with a hint of mockery in her eyes, as if she was looking at a pitiful worm.
Fu Renyi was not annoyed. He said slowly, "You humans' emotions and desires are just shackles that bind you. Once you let go, you will find a different world. You will advance to a higher level of life. You will no longer be troubled by the trivial matters of the mortal world."
Following his words, Ma Xiaojia's eyes became blurred. Fu Renyi revealed a smile on his face. A pitch-black fog came out from between his eyebrows and slowly climbed onto Ma Xiaojia's body. It went into between her eyebrows.
At this moment, his expression suddenly changed. He turned to look at a pile of rubble in the corner.
A bloody figure slowly stood up from the rubble. Black fog surged around his body. His entire body was like a whirlpool that sucked in the surrounding light. The entire underground space seemed to have become much darker. His pupils had turned completely black. He no longer looked like a human, but an evil spirit!
Feeling the similar aura from the other party, Fu Renyi could not help but be shocked. "Are you a human or a ghost?"
As soon as his voice fell, the Buddha statue in the stone room suddenly cracked and shattered. An indescribable fear filled his heart. This was a statue that was blessed by the gods. It was a medium to communicate with the underworld. There was only one possibility for it to shatter, and that was that the divine power attached to it had disappeared.
Ma Xiaojia woke up and shouted uncertainly, "Zhang Kui, is that you?"
No one answered them. The underground space was getting darker and darker. It seemed that there was an inexplicable force that was repelling the light.
Although Fu Renyi was surprised, he did not panic. No matter if this guy was a human or a ghost, he would be done after killing him again. He moved his body and pounced on him. His palms turned completely black. The figure stood there blankly, as if he did not know how to dodge. Fu Renyi was overjoyed and his body sped up.
At the moment when the palms were about to reach him, the figure suddenly raised his head. In front of him was a pair of pitch-black eyes. He suddenly understood why it was getting darker and darker. It was because the eyes had absorbed all the light.
At the moment when he was shocked, the figure in front of him suddenly moved to the side. He dodged the palms and punched at him at the same time.
Fu Renyi hurriedly raised his palms to fight back, but the other party did not seem to want to come into contact with him. His body continued to move to the side and he kept punching him.
The two of them fought for a while. Fu Renyi was finally sure that the person in front of him was a human and not a ghost. The way the other party attacked was exactly the same as before, but he did not use a weapon.
This guy had learned his lesson from last time and did not come into contact with him. Instead, he circled around and looked for his weakness. His speed seemed to be a little faster than last time.
Gan Zhi was stunned for a while. She shouted in surprise, "Zhang Kui, you are not dead!"
Zhang Kui did not answer her because he could no longer speak. The palm attack he had received earlier was indeed very serious. His blood vessels had burst, and his internal organs had been shattered. His body had lost all its functions. It could be said that he was on the verge of death.
The reason why his consciousness had not dissipated was that at the moment when he was about to die, another kind of powerful force was injected into his body. With the injection of this force, every cell in his body seemed to feel his unwillingness. They began to boil, and a strong sense of power returned to him.
A soft cry rang out in the void as a long saber flew into his hand. After regaining his weapon, Zhang Kui's entire aura changed. If he was like an indomitable sharp sword before, he was now like a crossbow arrow hidden in a quiver. His entire aura became faintly discernible.
Fu Renyi's vision blurred. Before he could react, he felt a chill on his back. He had been hit by the knife. Following that, other parts of his body were hit by the knife. If this body was not as strong as steel, he would have died.
His complexion became more and more unsightly. Although this body belonged to a high-level physique master, he had lost the ability to sense the energy he cultivated after being parasitized. It was very difficult for him to display his strength. He looked towards the direction of the entrance, and thought of retreating.
"Rumble!"
At this time, a knife light flashed in front of his eyes. The difference was that this knife light was accompanied by a thunderous sound. The thunderous sound seemed to contain a will to suppress everything. Fu Renyi fell into a momentary rigidity. The thunder-like knife light flashed in front of his eyes, and cut him in two with a slashing sound.
"Zhang Kui" walked to the side of the corpse. In his eyes, he could see a faint shadow slowly emerging from the corpse.
The shadow's body emitted a rich black light. It seemed as if it was covered by a layer of thick fog. He could vaguely see the facial features of a beautiful woman.
She seemed to be a little confused. She looked around for a while, and finally looked at the corpse on the ground.
"Did you kill me?" a faint voice sounded in "Zhang Kui's" mind. It was deathly still, but there was no resentment.
Just when "Zhang Kui" was puzzled, the faint voice sounded again, "Do you know me?
Who am I? "
"Zhang Kui" hesitated for a moment. Then, he said, "This body of yours is called Fu Renyi."
"Fu Renyi. What a familiar name. No, this isn't my name. But, what's my name?"
The shadow seemed to be deep in thought. She stood there in a daze for a few seconds. Then, she suddenly became sluggish, and said to herself, "Who am I?
Who am I? "
She repeated these three words over and over again. As time passed, her body became dimmer. She became faintly discernible, and was close to becoming transparent.
Gradually, she couldn't speak. Her expression became blank and lifeless. Eventually, she became fainter and fainter. Finally, she completely disappeared from the world. That knife light had not only killed her parasitized body, but had also carried the power of thunder and lightning. Her soul was severely damaged. She couldn't resist the invasion of external energy. Even the flowing air could blow her away.
"Zhang Kui" stood there, lost in thought. This thing was different from ordinary ghosts. It could transform into a nearly solid soul. Its nature seemed to be the same as his.
