Chapter 113: 24k gold forged Dragon Scale Fist

With joyful sparks leaping, the gold block in Qingji's hand began to disintegrate and transform under the stimulation of the sparks, turning into tiny runes that covered Qingji's whole body.
Tenfold Dragon Fist, activate!
Originally, if Qing Ji wanted to use the Scale Transforming Dragon Fist with metal, it would take a long time to prepare. But with the innate talent bestowed by Zao Hong Ma, in just a few breaths, Qing Ji's entire body was already shimmering with golden runes, with sparks jumping among them.
If possible, Qing Ji doesn't want to waste her money. But her internal energy has been depleted, and she can't even use a single fold of the Dragon Fist, let alone tenfold.
Fortunately, she had already found a way to use the Dragon Scale Fist when she was at the Danming Realm.
As a frugal person, Qingji has never tried using gold as a medium, as it would be too extravagant and impose too much burden on her body.
Now, Qing Ji's body has changed dramatically, and with the innate divine body that Jiao Hongma created for her, her physical abilities have reached a terrifying level, enough to withstand the strengthening brought by the Golden Belt.
However, no matter how much Qingji strengthens, twenty times is the limit, but now the twenty times that Qingji has exhibited is not the same level as the twenty times when fighting against Daokuang.
Qingji lowered her head and looked at her hands, opening and closing her ten fingers. Every time she clenched her fist, it would make a burst of explosive sound.
Sensing the continuously surging energy within her body, a smile appeared on Qingji's lips.
Cheng Butang and Qing Ji were both ready for battle almost at the same time, and the current situation was quite unfamiliar to them, requiring some time to adapt.
Moreover, both of them were very confident.
"I don't know what surprises this gifted physique can bring to me."
This is the same question in Qing Ji and Cheng Butang's minds at the moment.
The first one to take action was Cheng Butang. He suddenly moved at an extremely fast speed, dragging a red light on his body, and instantly arrived next to Qing Ji. His speed was almost beyond the limit of the Dark Night expert.
Qingji did not retreat. Since she has perfected the "Cui Lin Hua Long Quan" technique, her fighting style has undergone a significant change: she will never retreat if she can withstand the opponent's attack head-on!
With one punch, Qingji creates a series of explosive bursts of energy.
This punch is an attack, straight to Cheng Butang's face, and the dagger swung by Cheng Butang is kicked away by Qingji.
Cheng Butang didn't even realize when Qingji lifted her leg. Being able to use such a swift kicking technique in the moment of punching shows that Qingji has achieved an astonishing level of body control.
General obscure masters definitely can't do this. Cheng Butang is even more certain that something strange must have happened to this girl.
Qing Ji's fist is so powerful that Cheng Butang dares not face it. Suddenly, three blood-red tentacles emerged from the dagger that was kicked away, wrapping around his arm just as Qing Ji's fist was about to hit Cheng Butang's face.
This tentacle's speed is even faster than Qing Ji's fists, and it is incredibly resilient. Instead of directly withstanding Qing Ji's punches, it grabs onto her arms from various directions.
As a physical martial artist, Seiryu strongly dislikes this type of tentacle-like technique.
If these tentacles were to wrap around her, it would be quite troublesome. Fortunately, these tentacles don't last long and disappear after a moment.
But this momentary pause was enough for Cheng Butang to adjust his position and retreat to a distance of three zhang away.
Qing Ji was unwilling to let him go and leapt forward, but before she could even jump out of the yard by less than one zhang, a powerful force pulled her back.
Looking down, Qingji suddenly realized that there were three purple light ribbons wrapped around her waist, with the other end of the ribbons fixed on the ground a yard away.
At the same time, Qingji also felt her power continuously draining along the purple ribbons, fortunately, the rate of depletion was not fast, about one-fifth of her power with each breath.
Without hesitation, Qingji raised her hand and squeezed out a flying knife, slashing at the light ribbon. However, she was unable to cut it and the small gap that was cut in the light ribbon was continuously healing.
It seemed that this light ribbon was more resilient than the tentacles that had tangled her before, but as long as she had time, there was still a way to break it.
Cheng Butang won't give Qing Ji this opportunity. He sneered, and the dagger suddenly plunged into the ground. A sinister energy surged into the underground, and after a moment of turmoil, dozens of sharp spikes emerged from below.
Out of the blue, Qingji was bound by a light and unable to escape the area covered by a radius of one yard, which was completely filled with spikes.
"Naive," Qingji sneered coldly, as she slammed her fists towards the ground. A violent energy erupted from below, completely shattering the emerging spikes along with the underground portion.
The violent impact even blasted open the ground that the purple ribbon was fixed in, revealing the end of the ribbon.
There, unbelievably, was a worm-like creature about two feet long, covered in black runes.
This bug let out a loud scream after being blasted off the ground, and it kept struggling to burrow back into the ground. This bug is extremely strong, even two or three average horses may not be able to pull it.
"This worm is called the Abyssal Assault. It can absorb life force and possesses enormous strength with a strong vitality. It is impervious to water and fire and is immune to blades and guns," Cheng Butang proudly said. This worm is also one of his trump cards, thanks to the dagger imprinted with Blood Ritual that he can subdue this creature.
If the blood assault can hold Qing Ji for a moment, he can kill Qing Ji. He wasted too much time in the blood curtain earlier, and if he delays further, someone might come. Cheng Butang decided to use a high-powered technique.
"Underworld Assault?" Qingji's eyebrow raised and her right hand, already gripping a weapon, was hidden in her sleeve.
"Even if you have some tricks up your sleeve, it will take quite an effort to kill this creature. But I don't have the patience to play with you anymore," Cheng Butang said. As he spoke, a golden mist rose above his head, and the runes on his arm suddenly flew to his forehead, forming a pair of twisted horns. Within the horns, a golden vortex formed in the mist. "Let me show you something rare - true martial arts. Hehe, no way out, the gates of hell open - Corpse Ghost Summon!"
It's not that Cheng Butang is verbose, it's just that the pre-action of this skill is too long. In most cases, there is no chance to use it at all, after all, wanting to perform True Martial Arts with obscure and dark cultivation has too many restrictions, long preparation time, and must recite an incantation.
Qing Ji looked on and wondered why she had been encountering ghost skills so often lately...
With a flash of the blade, the runic centipede was cut into two halves and fell to the ground, struggling for a few moments before becoming motionless.
Cheng Butang: (o_o)
"So it's true martial arts." Qingji sneered, suddenly waved her hand, and the Buddha bone on the altar flew toward Qingji. When the Buddha bone got closer, one could vaguely see the subtle energy flowing between the Buddha bone and Qingji.
Now the talent divine body on Qing Ji comes from this Buddha bone, and the contact between us has become closer after getting closer.
"Unfortunately, I am currently out of true qi and cannot open your eyes for you, but there is something interesting."
