Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1065: Chapter 1064: Huang Jinkuang Is Also a Tragic Figure

No one expected that the golden scale armor on Huang Jinkuang could harbor such power, each scale containing a formidable force. If anyone were to engage Huang Jinkuang in physical combat, he could instantly unleash these powers. The combined explosion of the forces within each scale would be earth-shattering, leaving no room for defense and potentially turning anyone into fragments before they could dodge.

Undeniably, Huang Jinkuang’s physical body is indeed formidable, and it must be said that this person is quite ruthless and despicable, as he has hidden such a deadly trick within his scales. If Ye Tianchen hadn’t cultivated the ”Divine Movement Skill” to the realm of Small Success, he would have been doomed this time.

”Huang Jinkuang is indeed quite insidious!”

”You can’t call it insidious. The Martial Arts World is harsh; only the strong survive, and only the victor has the right to speak. Where is the room for the weak to dispute?”

”Ye Tianchen actually survived?”

”The scales on Huang Jinkuang are not simple; each emits a mysterious and powerful force. It seems his physical strength is indeed formidable, and he has such deadly tricks. Ye Tianchen is somewhat weaker when it comes to a physical confrontation with Huang Jinkuang.”

At this moment, Ye Tianchen and Huang Jinkuang are standing opposed, Huang Jinkuang’s scales emitting mysterious and powerful forces, strong and vigorous. Ye Tianchen’s right arm is dripping with blood, the sleeve completely gone, vanished into thin air. Blood trickles down from Ye Tianchen’s right arm, yet he coldly stares at Huang Jinkuang, unaffected by his dominance, seemingly pondering something.

”What’s with that look? Despair perhaps? Good, very good. I want you to feel despair, much more satisfying than killing you outright.” Huang Jinkuang said viciously, glaring at Ye Tianchen.

”While tempering your body, you stored some of your strength within your scales, accumulating over time until each scale was filled with power. This becomes your formidable sneak attack, a deadly trick foes can’t defend against.” Ye Tianchen said calmly, looking at Huang Jinkuang.

Seeing Ye Tianchen, Huang Jinkuang had to admit his own strength, had to admit his physical body was more powerful, and showed a prideful demeanor, disdainfully looking at Ye Tianchen and saying, ”Good that you know you are no match for me. Truth be told, no one can surpass me, Huang Jinkuang, in physical combat!”

”Why?” Ye Tianchen asked calmly.

”You want to know?” Huang Jinkuang asked with a provocative tone.

”I just want you to say what you want to before you die.” Ye Tianchen responded calmly.

Huang Jinkuang frowned fiercely, his eyes filled with murderous intent, wishing to tear Ye Tianchen apart. He was slightly puzzled; he had severely injured Ye Tianchen earlier. Normally, since Ye Tianchen’s physical body is not as strong as his, he would only have two choices: escape or cease physical combat and switch to Martial Arts Divine Skill attacks. Yet Ye Tianchen opted for neither. Why?

However, like a proud individual such as Huang Jinkuang, especially after initially suffering against Ye Tianchen and then reversing the situation to heavily injure him, his confidence had grown immensely. Only mildly puzzled for a moment before dismissing the thought, believing it was because he had gravely injured Ye Tianchen, who had not foreseen the ferocity of Huang Jinkuang’s physical body, leaving him unsure of his next move.

”As death approaches, let me tell you the origin of my golden scales... When I was born, our Jin family possessed a drop of Ancestor Pangolin King’s blood passed down from ancient times, almost beyond preservation. However, this drop contained immense power, obtained by a Supreme Elder of our Jin family after a battle with the Ancestor Pangolin King. Not wanting to waste the drop, my father injected it into me at birth...” Huang Jinkuang said through gritted teeth.

”Then your childhood must have been unhappy and fraught with life-or-death challenges.” Ye Tianchen remarked.

”You’re right; among my nine siblings, I was the most miserable, the most sorrowful. Due to that drop of Ancestor Pangolin King blood, I almost died back then. But the elders in the family, to preserve my life -- or rather to preserve that powerful drop of blood -- used Martial Arts True Qi for ten days and nights to cleanse my marrow and make me survive, albeit turning me into a monster neither human nor beast. Anyone who saw me feared me, no one wanted to play with me. My life was lonely until I cultivated to a strong physique, causing everyone in the family not to underestimate me anymore. Anyone who dared give me a peculiar look met an untimely end!” As Huang Jinkuang spoke, he became increasingly hideous, showing his twisted, traumatized psyche, laying bare his childhood wounds now releasing into violent and murderous aura.

”No wonder, you’re indeed pitiful. I don’t want to kill you; return to your Jin family, don’t oppose me any longer!” Ye Tianchen said to Huang Jinkuang.

”Hm? Hmph! As a defeated opponent, facing death yet to talk big, dare to utter such words, I can kill you with a blow now.” Huang Jinkuang glared at Ye Tianchen mercilessly.

Ye Tianchen shook his head, the reason he wanted to know why Huang Jinkuang was covered in golden scales filled with energy was due to the Jin family, including Huang Jinkuang’s father, to preserve the legacy of a drop of Ancestor Pangolin King’s Essence Blood, injected it into Huang Jinkuang at birth without letting its power dissipate. Ancient races, like the Pangolin Ancestor King, possessed unimaginable Divine Skills and injecting such Essence Blood into a human, and a newborn at that, was highly perilous, raising potential for explosive consequences. Even powerful Martial Artists dare not easily attempt this as it combines two vastly different bloodlines, with nearly zero success rate.

Yet when Huang Jinkuang was born, the family elders and his father Huang Wudao didn’t consider Huang Jinkuang’s fate, solely focusing on preserving the drop of Essence Blood, securing the family’s heritage without regard for Huang Jinkuang’s survival. Fortunately, he survived; otherwise, nobody would’ve mourned his demise or considered his fate...

The Jin family is dominant and ruthless, atrociously disregarded their own bloodline’s risk of death for a drop of Ancestor Pangolin King’s Essence Blood, ignoring Huang Jinkuang’s potential explosive demise, who was just an infant!

Upon understanding Huang Jinkuang’s formidable physique stemmed from Pangolin Ancestor King’s Essence Blood, Ye Tianchen shook his head; regardless of how strong such a physique was, it inherently possesses flaws. Once exposed, it’s too late, as two differing bloodline powers could only blend efficiently through potent Martial Arts Divine Skill and Martial Arts True Qi, risking collision when haphazardly combined. It remains a dangerous ticking time bomb, its threat never vanished. Ye Tianchen acknowledged this during the apocalypse era, so he felt sorry for Huang Jinkuang, identifying him as a tragic figure, not wanting to kill such a tragic person, considering it unnecessary.

Boom!

Huang Jinkuang struck, blatantly disregarding Ye Tianchen’s words, fiercely and dominantly aiming a fist at Ye Tianchen’s head, Ye Tianchen shook his head, his hands swift, ignoring his right arm’s injury, meeting force with force, punching towards Huang Jinkuang.

Bang!

An unbelievable scene unfolded where Ye Tianchen’s and Huang Jinkuang’s fists collided once more; despite Ye Tianchen’s previous disadvantage, he sent Huang Jinkuang flying away with a single punch. Huang Jinkuang was sent hurtling away, eyes wide in disbelief staring at Ye Tianchen, even the surrounding Martial Artists were taken aback. What happened? Did Ye Tianchen hold back earlier? Or was he merely gauging Huang Jinkuang’s physical prowess and assessing his deadly tricks? (To be continued.
