I Grind to Martial Saint

BANG!

Han Yuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and a mist of blood sprayed from his mouth.

He let out a low growl and slashed his saber behind him.

SWOOSH~

The blade’s gleam met nothing but air.

The dark shadow silently reappeared at Han Yuan’s side, striking a palm toward his temple.

Han Yuan sneered, viciously whipping his head to the left!

He looked like he was just taking a beating, but he had been tracking the withered old man’s presence the entire time.

In that instant, he finally pinpointed his opponent’s location.

BAM!

Han Yuan’s head slammed into the withered old man’s palm like a hammer.

His opponent grunted and stumbled back three steps.

It was only three steps, but it was enough to completely disrupt his offensive rhythm!

A savage grin on his face, Han Yuan smashed a Giant Spirit Monument-Opening Hand toward the withered old man!

The withered old man shrieked, unleashing a flurry of palm strikes!

But Han Yuan’s power was too immense and ferocious. He blasted straight through the old man’s defense, his strike landing viciously on his shoulder!

BAM~

The old man’s shoulder was tougher than Han Yuan had expected. It didn’t explode, but it caved in and deformed.

Still, the impact made the old man shudder and spray a mouthful of blood.

BANG BANG BANG~~~

In the next moment, Han Yuan’s qi and blood erupted. He unleashed a barrage of Mountain-Breaking Heavy Fists, hammering them into the withered old man.

BAM!

He finished by grabbing the old man’s shoulders and viciously kneeing him in the gut.

The old man felt his internal organs rupture and explode as he began to cough up clots of blood!

Yet, the man could still attack, thrusting a palm at Han Yuan’s chest.

The two were instantly forced apart.

”Old man, I can take dozens of your palm strikes. I wonder how many of my fists you can take?”

Han Yuan grinned as he stared at his opponent.

”You’re too naive.”

”You cannot imagine the divine might of our Wangling Sect.”

The withered old man looked at Han Yuan and shook his head faintly.

”Then let’s test it.”

Han Yuan narrowed his eyes.

”You will regret not dying by my hand just now.”

The withered old man shook his head.

In the next instant, a thick, corpse-like aura surged from his body. His withered frame began to swell grotesquely, his face twisted into a ferocious mask, and his hands grew sharp, black claws.

In the blink of an eye, the withered old man transformed into a grotesque, muscle-bound creature over two meters tall.

SWOOSH!

His speed was far greater than before, and his attacks were no longer silent. They were treacherous and vicious as he stabbed madly at Han Yuan.

SHING SHING SHING~~~

His pitch-black claws left trails of dark light as they stabbed toward him in a frenzy.

Han Yuan roared, channeling all his strength as he swung his hands like a pair of ferocious executioner’s blades.

BANG BANG BANG~~~

The two clashed in a flurry of blows, a fierce and savage melee.

In his grotesque form, the withered old man’s speed and explosive power were clearly superior to Han Yuan’s.

Han Yuan’s body was soon covered in bloody holes and countless gashes.

”I told you... you’re no match for me!”

The withered old man roared and slammed his palm down on Han Yuan’s skull.

BAM~

Han Yuan vomited a spray of blood as he was sent flying backward.

The withered old man shot forward as a ball of black light, aiming to crush Han Yuan’s throat with his claw.

A large, sinewy hand shot out and clamped down on his wrist.

The withered old man’s expression changed dramatically.

He felt a terrifying force wash over him, viciously snapping his wrist.

CRACK!

”Your strength... isn’t all that great!”

Han Yuan’s face was covered in blood, his eyes shot red. He looked terrifyingly savage.

In an instant, his body swelled, wreathed in black energy, exuding a ferocious and tyrannical aura!

Transformed Whale State... activated!

BOOM!!!!

The withered old man tried to speak, but Han Yuan grabbed his arm and slammed him violently into the ground.

He was utterly powerless to resist the terrifying strength!

”How is this possible?!”

The withered old man, his bones and muscles shattering from the impact, let out a venomous shriek.

’How can this man’s power... be even greater than mine!’

’My body received the blessing of the Yellow Springs Saint Mother herself!’

”Nothing’s impossible!!!”

Han Yuan roared.

This was the first time he had activated his Transformed Whale State since reaching the True Qi Realm.

He could feel Qi Power surging through his body, filling his heart with irritability and rage.

BAM!!!

The withered old man had just gotten to his feet when Han Yuan slapped him back down to the ground.

”Get up!!!”

”Get the hell up!!!”

Han Yuan bellowed, his right leg stomping down on the withered old man again and again.

Foot after foot!

The withered old man’s bones and flesh were crushed and torn apart under the relentless assault, his screams of agony unending.

The ground itself trembled and shook.

Watching this from a short distance away, Bai Muxin felt his scalp go numb.

He never imagined that even a Priest from the Wangling Sect would be no match for Han Yuan!

’How could this guy’s power be so terrifying!’

”I will not lose!!!”

The withered old man steeled himself for one last strike.

His face twisted in a terrifying snarl, he seized a gap in Han Yuan’s assault. Mustering his last ounce of strength, his left claw flashed with black light as it stabbed bizarrely toward Han Yuan’s heart!

CRACK!

Han Yuan viciously grabbed his left arm, hoisted the old man into the air, and smiled. ”Time to send you on your way!”

BAM BAM BAM~~~

His right fist hammered out like a cannon.

The air cracked with sonic booms.

The first punch obliterated the old man’s face into a pulp.

The second punch blasted away his flesh, exposing the skull beneath.

The third punch!

BAM!

The withered old man’s head exploded.

Casually tossing the corpse aside, Han Yuan turned to look at Bai Muxin in the distance.

”Cough, cough, cough...”

”Han Yuan... I won’t let you get away with this, even as a ghost.”

Knowing he was doomed, Bai Muxin’s face twisted with malice as he spat a curse at Han Yuan.

”You couldn’t beat me as a man.”

”And even if you become an Evil Spirit, you’ll still end up getting blown to bits by my fist.”

Han Yuan shook his head.

The next moment, he appeared before Bai Muxin and smashed his skull with a single palm strike.

SPLAT~~~

Brains and gore splattered everywhere.

After the kill, Han Yuan glanced over at Zhao Junshan.

He was still locked in combat with the two True Qi Martial Artists.

But the two True Qi Martial Artists seemed to notice Han Yuan’s gaze, and a chill shot through their hearts.

They no longer had any desire to fight Zhao Junshan and tried to break away and flee.

But Han Yuan had no intention of letting them escape. While his Transformed Whale State was still active, he flickered forward and charged at the two men!

In his Transformed Whale State, Han Yuan was far too terrifying. Dealing with ordinary True Qi Martial Artists was as easy as slicing melons. In just a few moves, he punched straight through one of their chests.

Seizing the moment his opponent was in a panic, Zhao Junshan unleashed a killing blow and decapitated the other True Qi Martial Artist.

Further in the distance, Cui Jiushan witnessed this scene, and his soul nearly left his body in terror.

Before, he had been the one blocking Li Jin from leaving.

But now the tables had turned, and it was Li Jin who was blocking him.

”Cui Jiushan, surrender now, and I might spare your Cui Family.”

”What do you say?”

Li Jin’s twin spears jabbed out rapidly, sealing off all of Cui Jiushan’s escape routes.

”I...”

Cui Jiushan saw Han Yuan and Zhao Junshan approaching. He knew that any further resistance was a dead end.

Even an ant will cling to life.

When faced with the true prospect of death, Cui Jiushan found he didn’t have the courage to accept it.
