Chapter 299 - A Toad That Was as Big as a Car! (2/2)
The toad's tongue shot out without warning again from the marsh when Fang Qiu was still in shock.
He immediately dodged the blow.
”The toad's tongue is very agile and extremely sticky. Once it gets stuck to me, it looks very likely that I'd be sent into its mouth while I struggle to break free,” Fang Qiu thought to himself and muttered. ”This is such a huge toad; I wonder how many patients I'd be able to treat if I turn it into a medical ingredient?”

Fang Qiu chuckled at that thought.
He didn't wait for the toad to launch another attack but instead, he made the first move and aimed for the toad's head.
However, the toad suddenly sank and disappeared into the marsh before Fang Qiu managed to approach it.
Fang Qiu immediately stopped himself.
He was afraid that he would accidentally end up in the marsh if he continued to rush forward.
Then, Elder Yi suddenly shouted out a warning.
”Watch out, senior!”
Fang Qiu smiled.
Beneath him.
”Splash!”
A large wave appeared in the marsh and charged toward him.
Fang Qiu turned and saw a huge shadow that blotted out the sun.
This shadow was right on top of him.
He took a closer look and saw that it was indeed that huge toad.
”It moves rather quickly.”
Fang Qiu smirked coldly as he watched the toad that had jumped out of the marsh and was crashing down toward him in an attempt to drag him into the marsh. Then, his right hand curled into a fist and he moved toward the toad fearlessly.
The next moment, there was a loud boom.
”Boom!”
Fang Qiu jumped into the air and delivered a hard punch to the large toad's stomach. Wrinkles immediately appeared all over the toad's flabby body.
It froze mid-air.
Elder Yi watched in astonishment by the edge of the marsh.
Did the mysterious man just manage to block the attack of such a humongous toad without leveraging on any other forms of strength?
It had to be noted that even though Fang Qiu's punch had a weight of 5,000 kilograms, this toad was very experienced and its belly had an amazing defensive ability.
Moreover, it was so large that it seemed like it could instantly crush a 10,000-kilogram rock, let alone be defeated by Fang Qiu's 5,000-kilogram punch.
Elder Yi was extremely astonished because he was well aware of that face.
If their positions were reversed, he knew that he would flee instead of trying to face it head-on.
He had been forced to retreat by this large toad the last time as well.
On the other hand, Fang Qiu immediately shifted away after he punched the toad's belly.
As expected, he wasn't able to overthrow the toad and all he was able to do was just to slow the toad's speed down.
There was no doubt about it.
The moment Fang Qiu moved away, the large toad plummeted down once it lost its center of support.
Then, Fang Qiu moved toward the large toad's head.
”Croak!”
The large toad croaked angrily and opened its mouth to release its tongue that moved like a spring. Its tongue shot out and it was as though it treated Fang Qiu like a bug that was meant to be eaten.
Would Fang Qiu let this toad have its way?
”Whoosh...”
The air flickered as he moved away.
He continued to charge ahead after he dodged the blow.
The moment the large toad landed hard into the marsh, Fang Qiu landed on top of its head.
Then, the large toad immediately sank.
It tried again to drag Fang Qiu into the marsh.
How could Fang Qiu let this hard-won opportunity slip by?
”Let me send you on your way!”
Fang Qiu said as he smashed down hard at the large toad's head. He drew on his own strength to jump into the air while the large toad was sent into the marsh by Fang Qiu's large force.
”Haha,” Fang Qiu smiled.
He didn't use his full strength earlier because he was afraid that he would kill this toad. After all, this toad had definitely reached a spiritual stage. It must have spent ages cultivating in order to grow so large. He'd be courting disaster if he were to kill it just like that.
Fang Qiu immediately turned and rushed toward the Bingdi Lotus before his smile faded.
Then, the large toad jumped out from the marsh once again.
”Splash!”
”Croak! Croak!”
It let out a fierce croak as it attempted to use its body to crush Fang Qiu once more.
”Hmm?”
Fang Qiu was surprised.
He thought that he would have knocked out that large toad with that punch earlier, so he was surprised to see the toad launching another attack.
”I guess that punch earlier didn't hurt as much as I expected!”
He had an idea and clenched his hands into fists.
The moment the toad was about to land on his head, his internal force exploded from within him and he threw another hard punch at the large toad's belly.
Unlike the previous time, the large toad's body didn't pause but instead, it was sent flying by Fang Qiu's punch.
”Croak...”
There was a strange-sounding croak. This large toad seemed a little frightened.
Fang Qiu moved and shot into the sky.
He charged up in the air and only turned when he was 10 meters above the large toad. Then, he unleashed an incredibly powerful internal force and took advantage of the force of gravity to send a huge punch at the large toad's head!
