Chapter 149 (2/2)

“Swish!”

While he was horrified, Mu Chen’s body had appeared in front of him like a phantom. Winds formed by his fists rushed out while it was being wrapped by dark black Spiritual Energy. It drew an arc as it pounded heavily against Shi Jingtian.

Shi Jingtian hurriedly summoned his Spiritual Energy and blocked with his rock-like arms. The Stone Emperor Art that he had trained in allowed him to possess powerful defence as well. Therefore, he wasn’t afraid of a hand-to-hand fight.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

However, Mu Chen didn’t seem to be concerned about it. His fists were wrapped in dark black Spiritual Energy and bombarded against Shi Jingtian’s arms. At this moment, Shi Jingtian’s expression changed drastically. This is because he detected that extreme heat was being transferred into his arm every time Mu Chen’s fists landed. This intense heat would charge into his meridians, which caused severe pain in his arms.

“Something’s strange with this guy’s Spiritual Energy!”

Shi Jingtian was shocked. Only now did he detect that there was a hint of black flames that was within the dark black Spiritual Energy whenever Mu Chen attacked.

“I must not fight against him head on!”

Shi Jingtian hurriedly retreated backwards. The black flame was too overbearing. If he let too much of the black flames seep into his body, it would probably scorch his meridians, which would gravely injure him.

“I must not delay this battle.” Shi Jingtian finally felt a bit of unease. Mu Chen’s strange techniques had finally made him quite uneasy.

“I’ll deal with him in one attack!”

Viciousness filled Shi Jingtian’s eyes. He immediately gritted his teeth as his arms trembled slightly. The greyish-white color in his arms turned increasingly dark. His large veins also twitched. At this moment, even his ten fingers seemed to be crafted from stone.

Accompanied with the greyish-white light, a formidable fluctuation erupted from Shi Jingtian’s palms.

“Take this!”

When the greyish-white light and Spiritual Energy had reached its peak, Shi Jingtian shouted loudly as he smacked down with his palm.

“Heavenly Stonesmash Palm!”

Following Shi Jingtian’s shout, a greyish-white light escaped his hand and instantly formed into a massive stone palm. This palm was covered with rock engravings and was extremely tough.

At the same time, Mu Chen’s palm also released out a dark black light. He, too, fired out a palm attack calmly. In that instant, faint sounds of thunders were formed and the entire sky seemed to darken.

“Vajra Pagoda!”

Mu Chen also struck with his palm. The dark black Spiritual Energy formed into a black palm. On the black palm, dark golden tower engravings emerged and a fluctuation that seemed to suppress everything appeared.

Boom!

The two palm attacks ripped through the air and collided heavily with each other like meteorites. At that moment, a loud noise resounded. Violent shockwaves were emitted and formed gales in the area. Sand and stone were instantly swept up from the earth.

“Suppress!”

Mu Chen’s eyes turned cold and he clenched his hands. Underneath the golden tower engravings, Shi Jingtian was aghast to see that his rock palm was beginning to crack. It was as if the Spiritual Energy within it was completely erased.

“How is this possible?!” Shi Jingtian was completely speechless.

“Swish!”

However, Mu Chen ignored him and the black palm with golden tower engravings completely emerged above Shi Jingtian as it smacked down.

Seeing this, Shi Jingtian hurriedly circulated his Spiritual Energy to protect this body.

Bang!

However, the palm still beat down mercilessly at him. After a muffled cry, everybody noticed Shi Jingtian falling down from the sky and landed fiercely on the ground.

The ground instantly shattered and web-like cracks spread out.

Puchi.

Shi Jingtian had a pale expression as he spat out a mouthful of blood. Traces of horror were still shown in his eyes. He never imagined that the attacks of Mu Chen would be so terrifying. Not even he, who was infinitely close to a Heavenly Fusion Stage, could block it!

“Swish!”

His eyes blinked as he attempted to retreat backwards. However, he heard the sounds of winds breaking and a light with black flames rushed across his eyes. Then, Mu Chen’s slender fingers, which carried black flames, stopped in front of his throat like the black scythe of a death god.

His body instantly froze and was covered with cold sweat. He did not dare make even the slightest movement.

“I’ve told you before…”

Mu Chen’s black eyes stared calmly at Shi Jingtian, who was completely horrified, as he slowly spoke: “If you get carried away, you will have to pay a price.”

“Now, you should hand over this price. Otherwise, I do not mind eliminating you.”
