Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 689: Chapter 452: Power Up, Second Round! (Double Length)

Earlier, he couldn’t find any trace of Song Changming, and with the summon from the ancestor, he had no choice but to return to join the group.

For now, he could only put aside the matter of avenging his brother by killing Song Changming and deal with it another day.

Seeing this, Prince Cui naturally would not let Su Jichuan pursue the already heavily injured Hu Tomb and struck a palm towards Su Jizi.

Su Jichuan’s expression changed, knowing that if Prince Cui’s palm landed, he would definitely be injured.

”Hmph!” Su Dong Pill also struck a palm to intercept Prince Cui.

In the next moment, Xi Yanxue couldn’t hold back any longer, transforming into a demon shadow and lunging at the Su Family’s Elder Grandmasters.

The rest of the fox race’s great demons immediately followed.

Being the only nine-tailed divine fox in the clan, ensuring Xi Yanxue’s safety was imperative.

Even if the Su Family couldn’t be destroyed, they had to take Xi Yanxue away during the crisis, allowing no mistakes.

In fact, if Xi Yanxue hadn’t relied on her nine-tailed divine fox bloodline to insist on confronting the Changsheng Family within the human race, the fox race would never have agreed to this matter.

The Changsheng Family isn’t easy to offend.

Especially since the families of the Changsheng Clan are interconnected and complex; even if they destroy the Su Family, the fox race would get entangled with this cause and effect.

They might even form grudges with other clans of the Changsheng Clan in the future, which isn’t something Xi Yanxue’s assurance of bearing the consequences could solve.

”Stop being arrogant!” Su Xiang shouted, leading the others into action.

Thus, another round of battle ensued between both sides.

On another front, Hu Tomb, guessing there might be pursuers behind him, used a talisman paper to conceal his presence immediately after escaping far away.

A Level Six Concealment Talisman made it difficult for even a Martial Arts Grandmaster’s perception to detect him five kilometers away.

Su Jichuan noticed that Hu Tomb’s presence had completely disappeared, showing a hint of disdain in his expression.

Flipping his hand, he took out an iron-black toad, just the size of a palm, and placed it in the center of his hand.

”Go, find him for me.” Su Jichuan pointed a finger on the toad’s head and spoke.

The Iron Toad was activated, and numerous rune patterns glowed on its body.

Ribbit!

The Iron Toad leaped high, transforming into a black light darting forward, with Su Jichuan following closely.

Before long, a thunderous boom erupted within a red rock canyon.

Two streams of master’s power shot out, causing the canyon to collapse into pieces.

”Brother Hu! What a pity, we used to drink wine and admire the moon together, but now I have no choice but to send you on your way!”

Su Jichuan shouted, his assault relentless, slashing once more at Hu Tomb, almost severing his arm.

Thud!

Hu Tomb fell to the ground, with blood either evaporating by his gang qi or dripping onto the floor.

Both of them had Middle Stage of Grandmaster cultivation, but Hu Tomb was already heavily wounded and previously surrounded by numerous Su Family grandmasters, exhausting his means to the point of hopelessness.

In contrast, Su Jichuan remained unscathed, making it difficult for Hu Tomb to withstand him in such a situation.

”Brother Hu, lasting this long is beyond my expectations, but it ends here.” Su Jichuan’s voice fell, as he suddenly tossed out a black object.

Upon closer inspection, it was an iron bird with a strange mouthpiece, similar to the previous Iron Toad, another unusual talisman.

The Iron Bird flew a distance and let out a piercing shriek aimed at Hu Tomb.

Boom, boom, boom!

The ground cracked open, and the surrounding rocks were instantly shattered into dust by the sound wave.

Hu Tomb was alert enough to immediately channel his master’s power to protect himself.

Unfortunately, by this point, he was so depleted that his master’s power manifested weakly.

The sound waves from the Iron Bird pierced through, immobilizing him on the spot.

The sonic waves seemed like invisible cages, tightly restraining Hu Tomb.

Su Jichuan raised his sword, ready to deliver the final blow to Hu Tomb.

If the fox race hadn’t arrived just in time, there would have been no need for such trouble, and Hu Tomb wouldn’t have survived until now.

Hu Tomb gritted his teeth, also retrieving an item from his storage ring.

”Killing me isn’t that simple!”

One reason grandmaster martial artists are hard to kill is due to their plethora of life-saving techniques and countless treasures.

In desperate situations, they could always rely on tools and items to survive.

Just as Hu Tomb was about to crush the item in his hand, a red blade light sliced through the sky with precision, severing the iron bird hovering above him.

Boom!

This strike was immensely powerful, cutting the iron bird in two, causing it to crash to the ground.

Su Jichuan immediately halted, closely observing.

This sword strike was imbued with apparent master’s power, clearly indicating the intervener was also a grandmaster powerhouse.

Without needing to ask who it was, the figure appeared directly before him.

Recognizing the person, Su Jichuan’s eyes widened, an increasingly fierce aura enveloping him.

”I can’t believe you dared to return!”

”Changming?” Hu Tomb, freed, gazed at the arriving Song Changming, his eyes first showing puzzlement, quickly turning to delight.

”You’ve broken through!”

Song Changming’s grandmaster aura was unmistakable; Hu Tomb couldn’t have mistaken it.

Song Changming had stepped into the grandmaster realm at this critical moment, much earlier than he had anticipated.

For a moment, he even wanted to ask Song Changming what on earth had happened.

”By a stroke of luck, I broke through.” Song Changming didn’t elaborate on the matter, his gaze falling on Su Jichuan before him.

”Just in time!”

After successfully breaking through, he didn’t linger on West Valley Road, but hurried back here.

Sensing Hu Tomb’s weakening aura, he rushed over posthaste.

Thankfully, he made it in time to join the second round of this battle!

Having broken through to the Grandmaster Realm, his first opponent happened to be Su Jichuan, who had previously forced his breakthrough.

Thus, Song Changming was determined to give this person a proper acknowledgment.

As for Su Qingqing, he arranged for her to stay on West Valley Road, not bringing her along.

After all, this was a grandmaster and great demon battle, and for Su Qingqing, it was still too early to get involved.

No one but Su Fengye would show any mercy towards her here.

”Indeed, just in time; this time, you won’t escape. Both of you shall meet your end here!” Su Jichuan grinned, eyes wide, speaking with a deep, murderous tone.

Although he wasn’t sure why Song Changming returned as a grandmaster, it would at most cost him a bit more effort.

One just entering the grandmaster realm and the other already gravely injured, with fragile combat strength...

What did he have to fear!

With a wave of his hand, the two spirit blades he previously used against Song Changming appeared again, and with another swing of his longsword, a vast fire of energy ignited.

Then he stepped towards Song Changming and Hu Tomb, momentum rising, increasingly intense.

”This time, it’s your turn to face life and death...” Song Changming drew out his spirit saber, the master’s power gathered on it, causing the blade to tremble and hum.

Ordinary mortal iron couldn’t bear the power of a martial arts grandmaster; only a spiritual artifact could sustain it.

Immediately, Song Changming summoned the five Witch Soldier Seals on his bone body.

Previously, using all five seals was an overload for him, not advised for extensive or prolonged use.

But now, having become a grandmaster, and with his body refining cultivation experiencing a notable surge upon breaking through to the grandmaster realm...

Now handling all five seals inside his body was no longer as challenging, even appearing manageable!

All his qi power, which in normal conditions was at the strength of thirty-one dragon powers, surged to nearly forty dragon powers in a day, a significant increase.

Even the previous refinement of great demon flesh couldn’t match the power boost from this breakthrough in cultivation.

Su Jichuan suddenly accelerated, his figure vanishing instantly.

Simultaneously, his two spirit blades transformed into two giant pythons, employing old tricks, lunging at Song Changming once more.

Though he didn’t fear Song Changming, he had sensed the immense power beyond his cultivation realm from Song Changming before and thus couldn’t underestimate him.

He struck with full force right away!

As the opponent exploded with speed, Song Changming too stepped onto a red cloud, moving almost simultaneously.

He flew low, skimming over the ground faster than in his peak condition, rapidly closing in on the energy giant pythons formed by the two spirit blades...
