Chapter 138 Purple Cloud Eight Desolates Body Tempering Technique
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
In the narrow warehouse, a series of muffled sounds continuously sounded. Coupled with the fluctuations in the air, it shook the already precarious roof of the warehouse to the point that dust kept falling.
Amidst the dust that filled the sky, a dark red figure retreated and retreated at lightning speed. Every time, he would slap out a palm that was fused with a dark red strange aura.
Opposite him, the other figure stood on the spot without moving, but every time, he could counterattack with a punch. Either he happened to hit the palm of the dark red figure, or his punch accurately struck the other party’s vital points, forcing the dark red figure to retreat and dodge.
Bang!
Another fist and palm collided. The dark red figure pushed away again, but he retreated more than ten meters in a breath.
Chu Nan gently exhaled and quickly adjusted his Internal Breath. He pulled out a strand of high-frequency vibration Internal Breath from his dantian and slowly circulated it at a stable speed in his meridians.
On the surface, it seemed that he had fought the other party for nearly ten minutes and the two sides were evenly matched.
However, in fact, this thin man’s Internal Breath was extremely soft and strange. Although Chu Nan could block it every time, every time he faced it head-on, it would always cause the Internal Breath in his body to vibrate through his meridians. It even caused him to suffer internal injuries that were not serious but could not be ignored.
While the other party was retreating for some reason, Chu Nan hurriedly used this time to recover his damaged meridians. “I originally thought that the federation’s media reporters were all guys with no morals and that their words could not even be trusted with a punctuation mark. Therefore, a few months ago, the various major media outlets of the federation praised you, a kid who was not even 20 years old, but I did not believe it at all and felt that they must have been exaggerating. Or perhaps, in order to ensure that the group below the age of 20 would not save any face, the federation had controlled the competition behind the scenes. In fact, you’re nothing impressive.”
The thin man slowly spoke and suddenly said something that was completely unrelated to the current situation.
Chu Nan was silent for a moment before he replied in a deep voice, “Many people say this and many people think so.”
“However, after the battle with you just now, I discovered that… what those guys said was actually true. Chu Nan, I’m certain that your current strength is definitely not inferior to any third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist. Why was it so miserable when you fought Maruk?”
“It’s very simple. My strength has increased again.” Chu Nan shrugged and replied with a relaxed expression.
“After that, you were lying in the hospital for more than three months. Your strength actually increased so greatly?”
Chu Nan did not answer.
In fact, he really wanted to turn around and tear open the seal on Chu Xiaoxi’s mouth and let go of the rope that tied her up so that she could find a chance to escape first. This way, it would be easier for him to escape.
However, the thin man stared at him like an eagle vulture from the beginning to the end, preventing him from turning around to face him.
The thin man narrowed his eyes and stared at Chu Nan for a moment before suddenly raising his hand and lifting the hood to reveal a sharp triangular face.
“Because of this, I’ve decided to give you the most basic respect as a martial artist before you die.”
“Before I die? Respect?” Chu Nan looked at him in surprise. After confirming that he did not have any impression of this face, he felt a little amused, “Kidnapping a young girl who has never practiced martial arts to threaten me, how can you say that you’re a martial artist? What respect?”
The thin man shook his head. “I’ve already said it just now. I originally only wanted to resolve this matter simply, but your performance was really beyond my expectations. Instead, you caused this originally very simple matter to become like this.”
Chu Nan’s heart stirred. “You mean that if I hand you the Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique now, you will let me and my sister
go?”
“No.” The thin man shook his head straightforwardly, “You personally let go of this opportunity. Now that you have seen my face, it’s already a dead end. Alright, cut the crap. You can be proud of yourself for being able to make me serious.”
After saying that, the man let out a long breath. Five dark purple auras shot out from his nostrils, mouth, and ears at the same time. Then, he saw that his originally extremely slim and thin body that was like a bamboo pole actually quickly expanded like a balloon.
In just two breaths, he had actually transformed into an extremely burly man covered in muscles!
Chu Nan looked at him in shock and could not believe his eyes.
What magical cultivation method was this? Even his body could actually change so much?
“I’ll let you die in peace.”
When he saw Chu Nan’s expression, the thin… no, he could no longer be considered skinny. He was completely a super burly man as he grinned and his voice was much thicker than before.
“This is one of the ultimate arts of the Vig Republic. It’s called the Purple Cloud Eight Desolates Body Tempering Technique. It’s an Internal Breath cultivation method that is rated as an A-rank cultivation method in the ‘Pan Milky Way Martial Skill Evaluation’. I spent a lot of effort to obtain this cultivation method back then, but because I couldn’t cultivate it well, I was unable to undergo proper cultivation, causing me to become like this now. It’s your luck to be able to see its full appearance before you die.”
“Since you have such a powerful A-rank Internal Breath cultivation method, why do you still want to snatch my mere B-rank cultivation method?” Chu Nan frowned and asked.
“Idiot! The Purple Cloud Eight Desolates Body Tempering Technique is an Internal Breath cultivation method, but your ‘Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique’ is an external cultivation method that doesn’t have any conflict. As long as I master the ‘Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique’, my strength will definitely increase greatly. In a few years, I might have the chance to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate and achieve Void Break!”
At this point, the gaze he used to look at Chu Nan became hot. He clenched his fists and a dark red aura that was much stronger than before spread out from his entire body. It was as if his entire body was enveloped in a dark red smoke.
“Die!”
The transformed man roared and Chu Nan felt his vision blur before a dark red light rushed forward.
Chu Nan did not have the time to think carefully. He raised his hand and threw a punch. Without any hesitation, he instantly used his Fourth Revolution Internal Breath and it struck the palm of the other party.
Boom!
Chu Nan only felt that the force coming from the other party’s palm was extremely surging. Compared to the soft force earlier, it was completely different.
Caught off guard, Chu Nan was sent flying by the irresistible terrifying force.
As soon as his feet left the ground, Chu Nan immediately cried out in his mind.
This confrontation made him instantly lose his guard, but it completely exposed Chu Xiaoxi behind him.
Chu Nan twisted his body in the air with all his might and kicked the pillar beside him, barely landing. When he looked up, he discovered that the transformed man had already grabbed Chu Xiaoxi’s head.
“No!”
Chu Nan was shocked and could not help but shout.
With the strength of this person’s palm, as long as he exerted a little more force, he could even crush Chu Xiaoxi’s head.
Under his palm, Chu Xiaoxi’s eyes were closed tightly. Tears flowed out from the corners of her eyes, and her entire body was trembling. Clearly, she was already extremely afraid.
However, Chu Nan did not dare to make any unnecessary movements, afraid that he would agitate that person.
What should he do?
What to do!
For the first time in his life, Chu Nan deeply hated his weakness.
If he was powerful enough now, how could he let his sister fall into such a hopeless situation?
