Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups Chapter 1406 - 679_2:
Previously on Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups...
A constitution as exaggerated as ninety-five points granted him physical capabilities far beyond the carbon-based lifeforms’ limits.
At this moment, his Dantian was no longer a pond called "Qi Sea," but a truly vast and unrestrained ocean.
Pure Yang True Qi surged endlessly through the wide meridians.
Every cell was shouting and cheering for battle, every breath and heartbeat continuously squeezed out more and more powerful energy.
Jiang Chen’s Corpse Mountain Blood Sea was indeed massive, but in Fang Cheng’s view, it was merely water without roots.
And he was an ever-burning sun!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Jiang Chen’s eyes turned blood red, his withered hands rapidly forming seals in front of his chest.
He completely abandoned defense, gritting his teeth to stabilize the crumbling front line at the cost of depleting his source corpse blood.
Four thick bone spurs shot up from his back, like four black flood dragons emerging from the sea, charging towards Fang Cheng’s face amidst the torrent of golden light arrows.
The black thunder entwined around the bone spurs had become so intense it turned into liquid, tearing the air into countless tiny spatial cracks in its path.
"Is this all you can do?"
Fang Cheng shouted coldly, advancing instead of retreating.
He then stepped on the void, producing a sonic boom as he dived down towards the four bone spurs.
At the moment of clash, he exerted force from his waist and hips, his spine taut like a great bow, his entire right arm swinging fiercely forward with the momentum.
There was no fancy move, just a Straight Punch that combined strength and speed to the extreme!
Boom!
The Iron Fist enveloped in a Golden Flame collided fiercely with the foremost bone spur.
The violent kinetic energy erupted instantly, a ring-shaped, semi-transparent shockwave expanding outward, forcefully pressing the blood waves below into a massive pit.
The tip of the bone spur shattered inch by inch, Jiang Chen suffering backlash, letting out a muffled groan, dark green blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
Yet he suddenly cracked a broken smile, revealing a cold grin:
"You think this king’s skills end here, young one?"
"Tonight is the full moon; this king laid the groundwork in West Mountain two thousand years ago. After my Divine Soul revived, I’ve cultivated here for decades, setting up the Gathering Yin Array. The Yin energy of this hundred-mile stretch of earth veins is all backing me!"
"I want to see how long your mere mortal body can withstand such a Domain. When your True Qi depletes, that’s when this king will extract and refine your soul!"
With the sound of his voice fading, a low hum resonated from the depths of the earth beneath the shrine as if echoing him.
Visible black cold currents surged from the ground, continuously pouring into that dry well, attempting to refill the blood water previously evaporated by the golden light.
However, Fang Cheng’s offensive showed no signs of weakening; instead, it became faster and heavier.
His left elbow struck horizontally, knocking away a bone spur attacking from the side.
His right leg chopped down like a battle axe, splitting a giant beast of the blood sea trying to ambush him in half.
He dodged and moved in mid-air, each attack accompanied by a thunderous boom.
The Golden Flame on his body surface not only didn’t dim from the intense consumption but burned even brighter with the surge of Qi and blood.
Jiang Chen controlled the re-healing bone spurs to fend him off while being secretly astonished.
This human’s Dantian, was it linked to a bottomless pit?
Such an intense Domain confrontation would have drained the energy of any mutant or Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Yet how is this guy not even taking a breath?
As Jiang Chen remained puzzled, an abrupt change occurred.
Rumble—
The entire Inner World suddenly shook violently.
This tremor didn’t come from the residual shocks of their clash but from deep within the earth, as if the foundations supporting this space were collapsing.
The ground cracked into bottomless ravines, broken green bricks, and debris falling into the Abyss.
What terrified Jiang Chen the most was that the well beneath his feet, constantly gushing blood water and earth vein Yin energy, suddenly made a few dry "gurgle" sounds.
The once fountain-like surge of dark red liquid visibly wilted.
Soon after, the massive suction connected to the depths stopped abruptly, cutting off the supply of Yin energy.
The Domain of the Corpse Mountain Blood Sea, which was struggling to sustain itself, lost the source of earth vein Qi, instantly deflating like a punctured balloon.
The height of the blood waves drastically reduced, and the evil spirits struggling under the golden light perished in swathes, unable to regroup into an army again.
"What’s happening? My Gathering Yin Array... Has the Array Hub been tampered with?!"
Jiang Chen suddenly raised his head, his ghostly green eye sockets filled with disbelief and panic.
He staggered back two steps in mid-air, and the four bone spurs became weak and powerless due to the loss of strength support.
Fang Cheng hovered in the air, retracting his fist.
He slightly tilted his head, looking at the disordered millennial Corpse King below, a mocking arc curling at the corner of his mouth:
"Does it feel like the faucet suddenly got tightened?"
Jiang Chen fixed his stare on him, a beast-like growl emanating from his throat:
"You... What the hell did you do?!"
"I didn’t do anything."
Fang Cheng squeezed his fist, his tone relaxing as if discussing what to eat today:
"This has always been the site of the Cheng Family’s ancestral Inheritance Secret Realm. You, a zombie occupying another’s nest, really think that after a few years of domination, you can fully control the situation?"
He extended his thumb, pointing towards a direction outside the Inner World:
"Your obedient grandson, Cheng Jiashu, is currently standing in the shrine outside. He is of the Cheng Family’s orthodox bloodline, and no one knows the location of the Array Hub here or how to sever the connection with the Earth Veins better than him."
Upon hearing the name "Cheng Jiashu", it seemed as if a thunderbolt exploded in Jiang Chen’s mind.
"Again, Cheng Jiashu! That ungrateful beast!"
Jiang Chen trembled with rage, his shriveled chest heaving violently, unable to hold back from launching into a tirade of curses.
No matter how hard he calculated, Jiang Chen did not foresee that the base he had managed for decades would have its network cable pulled directly by his bloodline descendant from the outside.
Without the support of the Earth Vein Array, the already dilapidated Corpse Mountain Blood Sea was finally heading toward total collapse under the suppression of Fang Cheng’s majestic Divine Palace.
The blood quickly dried up, revealing the cracked and blackened earth below.
The towering Corpse Mountain collapsed inch by inch under the direct shot of the golden light, turning into grayish-white powder scattered across the ground.
Jiang Chen’s vaunted Magic Domain Divine Skills were completely stripped away within a few breaths.
"Now, it’s my turn."
Fang Cheng withdrew his smile, the murderous intent in his eyes overflowing as if it had substance.
Above him, the magnificent Red Gold Palace suddenly erupted with light ten times stronger than before.
Within the grand hall, the plaque seemed to have a golden eye slowly opening.
Buzz——
A thick golden pillar of light descended from the sky, like an overturned giant bell, accurately enveloping Jiang Chen, who was preparing to flee.
"Ah——"
The moment the light wrapped around him, Jiang Chen let out the most intense scream.
The pure True Sun Fire drilled into his pores, fiercely burning his zombie source essence blood.
Jiang Chen attempted to use Space Instant Step to escape but despairingly found that the surrounding space structure had been completely locked by this vast Divine Power.
His body felt as if it had returned to being an ordinary person, his legs heavy as if filled with lead.
The once invincible King of Zombies now seemed like a fly nailed to the wall, unable to move, his eyes filled with pure terror of death.
Fang Cheng took a deep breath, the bones across his body emitted a densely packed crackling sound akin to firecrackers.
His robust upper body muscles swelled once again, with veins like coiled dragons winding around his arms.
"Farewell, won’t see you off."
Before the words finished, the air beneath his feet exploded with a burst of white air wave.
Using the terrifying thrust from the sonic boom, Fang Cheng transformed into an elongated golden meteor, instantly crossing dozens of meters, directly advancing to Jiang Chen’s chest.
Without any charge, without any pause, the slaughter feast reached its climax at that moment.
"Infinite Continuous Punching, Flame Machine Gun Fist!"
Fang Cheng’s eyes danced with violent flames, his arms suddenly trembling, completely abandoning any defensive posture.
At this moment, he wanted to convert all of his ninety-five points of Constitution and the ocean-like True Qi within his Dantian into pure destructive kinetic energy.
To utterly blast the enemy before him into smithereens!
