Chapter 102 Explosive Kill! (Second Update)
As a seasoned veteran of the battlefield, he keenly sensed something was amiss.
Because that demon insect was talking too much nonsense.
It even wanted to recite a poem for him.
Why not throw in a rap while at it?
Anything abnormal was a sign of demons at work.
The damned creature\'s first choice wasn\'t to run but to engage in a war of words with him, probably because its secret technique for hiding its presence needed time to recover.
In just a few words, Yi Chen had seen through the big bug.
"Taoist, you\'re seeking death!" The demon insect was clearly infuriated facing Yi Chen\'s punch enveloped in pale cyan Inner Qi.
If it weren\'t for the fact that it would fall into a thirty-second period of weakness after deactivating its secret technique, it, the mighty demon insect, wouldn\'t bother buying time with a junior in such an awkward manner.
Why not just strike and kill to resolve the matter?
It was truly like a dragon trapped in shallow waters, played by a shrimp.
But now it didn\'t matter much, at most a few more seconds. After ten-odd seconds, when the weakness from the secret technique faded, it would be able to attack or escape.
Boom!
A loud noise erupted.
The moment the giant foot of the bizarre insect made contact with Yi Chen\'s fist, a huge shockwave was released.
In an instant, the demon insect\'s expression changed drastically.
An explosive force, unique to the Strength-Breaking Realm, surged through the part of it that had made contact with Yi Chen.
With one strike, the insect was forced to the ground, retreating step by step with its giant foot to dissipate the overwhelming force of Yi Chen\'s punch.
Seeing this, Yi Chen\'s eyes lit up.
There was indeed a problem!
How could a demon insect that had shocked Mo Yu be so weak?
It was already struggling with just an ordinary punch from him in his normal state.
So then,
If he didn\'t take advantage of his enemy\'s weakness, was he even human?
It was best to chase the desperate foe with the courage left, rather than seek fame like an overbearing ruler.
As thoughts raced through his mind, Yi Chen decided to step up the intensity and end things quickly, lest the night bring more dreams.
"True Pure Yang Power!"
Yi Chen pounded his chest and shouted loudly.
The pale cyan Inner Qi suddenly rippled out from him as the center, before quickly flowing back to form a pale cyan glaze armor on his body.
This was the unique transformation granted by the eighth level of the True Pure Yang Skill.
The armor, vibrant with verdant cyan Inner Qi, enveloped his entire body like a thick exoskeleton, leaving only his eyes, filled with a violent gaze, visible.
His stature began to rise, his joints thickened and enlarged, and muscles started proliferating and hardening on his feet, thighs, waist and abdomen, arms, and neck—a wild power began to dance unrestrained within him.
Muscles covered his body like armor, and the Inner Qi-transformed cyan glaze armor clung to his muscles like syrup wrapped around hawthorn fruit.
He grew taller by the second, and quickly surpassed the height of two and a half meters.
The pale cyan Inner Qi began to roar inside him, displaying his formidable momentum.
Endless moonlight poured into Yi Chen\'s body like a whale drawing water, dimming the surrounding light.
This made Yi Chen, clad in pale cyan glaze armor, stand out even more under the night sky.
"Senior, please enlighten me with your moves; let us fight to our heart\'s content today,"
"Demon Insect Daoist friend."
"Today, you and I have determined our superiority and have decided life and death!"
Yi Chen\'s voice thundered like wild, and before the word \'death\' had even finished, his entire body, trailing a pale cyan flame tail, plunged down towards the bizarre insect again.
At this moment, the commotion inside the courtyard had also attracted some of the guards from the Town Peace Corps, including a few minor banners with decent cultivation.
The demon insect seemed to have quite a reputation.
As soon as they entered, they recognized the massive insect shadow, their expressions drastically changing as they couldn\'t help but exclaim:
"Taoist small..."
Their words stopped abruptly.
The rest of the sentence, \'heart,\' just couldn\'t make it out of their mouths, as the scene before them made them feel like their jaws were about to dislocate.
Once Yi Chen perfectly displayed the formidable Pure Yang dominant form, the demon insect, in its secret technique-weakened state, couldn\'t keep up with his speed at all.
In an instant, Yi Chen threw a savage straight punch that landed in the middle of the demon insect\'s body.
With that hit, a green, eerie juice spurted from the mouth of the demon insect, splashing onto the ground, corroding the soil in the courtyard into pits of various sizes.
The demon insect felt as if it had been hit in the waist by an ancient mammoth, bile nearly spewing out.
The pale cyan Inner Qi transmitted from the tall Daoist\'s body was extremely venomous, wreaking havoc inside it like an incurable disease on the bone, causing unbearable pain.
At this time, the demon insect was furiously hating in its heart!
This little brat, how merciless.
Talking about having an eager battle with an elder, to determine the superior and decide life and death.
The demon insect absolutely didn\'t believe the young brat in front of it couldn\'t see its weakened state.
Experience tales with empire
It was clearly taking advantage of its weakness, aiming for its life.
Damn it, the demon insect, having roamed freely for hundreds of years, had never suffered such a loss.
While the demon insect was going mad with hatred, Yi Chen\'s next punch was already on its way.
Right now, the only thought in Yi Chen\'s mind was to finish this quickly.
"Stone Skin!"
However, even in a weakened state, the demon insect was not an easy opponent. It finally let out a sharp scream before Yi Chen\'s next punch could reach it, its body suddenly turning into a stone-like earthy yellow color.
As the punch connected, heavy rocks from the demon insect\'s body fell to the ground, but, luckily, compared to being unprepared before, it was faring much better now.
"In no more than ten seconds, it will completely break free from the weakened state and escape underground."
Just as the demon insect was about to reinforce itself with another innate spell, Stone Skin, it suddenly felt dizzy and weightless.
It was Yi Chen grabbing its two massive legs and swinging it around.
The move from the King of Fighters with the chain hammer-wielding King Kong pig was replicated.
Left right, left right.
Left right, left right.
The earth trembled violently, kicking up clouds of dust.
Only Yi Chen\'s ferocious laughter, like thunder, echoed from within the dust cloud.
"Senior demon insect, won\'t you say something?"
"Oh, you\'re still kicking me with your other legs, let\'s dismember those."
"With such little strength, you might as well stop calling yourself a demon insect and go by \'Dung Sea Insane Maggot\' instead~"
With a forceful yank of his arms, one massive leg descended from the sky, landing on the ground in front of everyone. As the leg landed, still twitching, with a rough break and uneven muscle fibers, it was clear it had been torn off by sheer strength.
Such a brutal scene left the Town Peace Corps, led by Mo Yu, utterly numb.
In their eyes, the fearsome demon insect, whose presence and aura were terrifying, seemed like a tender chicken chick when caught in Yi Chen\'s hands, being manipulated effortlessly.
This was a fearsome creature equivalent to the late stage of the Qi Refinement Realm, yet in the palm of Yi Chen\'s large hand, it couldn\'t even escape underground.
Every time the demon insect\'s body touched the earth, their brows twitched involuntarily, and for a moment, they began to feel a bit sorry for the demon insect.
Just why provoke the Yi Taoist, a fine fellow?
