Holy Fist
Chapter 258 - 135 Void Demon Nest, a lot of experience

Instantaneously, strands of lightning buzzed, accompanied by white vapor swirling around his nostrils. A special frequency vibration swept across his entire body.

Bai Xiao could clearly feel it.

As the Body Strengthening Elixir was consumed, a torrent of robust essence blood was stimulated, swiftly sweeping across his skin and flesh, wildly darting between the powerful bones. At the same time, he felt a layer of invisible liquid slowly seeping into his body, from the membrane of his skin to the organs and into the depths of his bones.

The Qi inside his body was scorching hot, while the liquid outside was cool.

These two peculiar sensations constantly collided and circulated.

In certain areas of Bai Xiao’s body, sometimes the rapid alternation of cold and heat occurred: the violent heat flow swept through, followed by the cooling liquid nourishing him. Soon, a more solidified essence blood and a more vigorous vitality brewed.

He didn’t know how long it had been when he slowly opened his eyes.

A powerful spirit emanated from the gleam in his eyes.

Creak, creak, creak, creak...

Bai Xiao stood up from the wooden barrel, slowly moving his limbs. Immediately, a quite crisp sound came from his joints, like beans popping in a hot pot. Raising his arm, his muscle lines became even more defined.

Clenching his fist, he felt a robust and powerful sensation firmly captured within his palm.

He stepped out, wiping his body with a dry towel.

Changed into a set of clean black combat attire.

Before him, his four-dimensional attributes had clearly changed.

[Power: 45.9→50.4]

[Speed: 37.6→38.5]

[Physique: 52.3→55.5]

[Will: 28.9→30.0]

The Power attribute increased by a full 4.5, breaking past the significant fifty marks!

Based on effects alone, this Strengthening Pill had doubled the overall attribute enhancement for Bai Xiao compared to the recent breakthrough of the Ten Fists Sword.

Of course, the upgrade of professional skills could not be calculated so simply.

The power of the second layer of the Ten Fists Sword far surpassed that of the first layer.

The destructive power and combat effectiveness significantly enhanced.

"I’ve become stronger again..."

"But, it’s still far from enough."

Bai Xiao recalled the battle with the Evil Ghost Level just a few hours ago.

It was a crushing contest.

He was the one being crushed.

The Evil Ghost Level’s body was covered with a black membrane enveloping his entire body, making it seem as if he operated on a different world frequency. Bai Xiao, using the Burst State of the Hundred Python Swallowing Elephant, swung a punch powerful enough to demolish a building at the Evil Ghost Level, but it was like throwing a stone into the sea, hardly making a noticeable impact.

Instead, the attacks from the Evil Ghost Level on Bai Xiao were incredibly lethal.

Especially at the last moment in anger, one move severely wounded Bai Xiao.

If another strike had followed, Bai Xiao would have certainly died.

He understood, there was a huge gap between them.

If he hadn’t been pulled into the deeper world at just the right moment, where Bai Xiao used the Totem Giant to defeat the Evil Ghost Level, the four of them would have faced certain death.

Bai Xiao couldn’t guarantee he would always be so lucky.

What if an Evil Ghost Level Killing Ghost attacked him in the real world?

If he couldn’t use the Divine Ghost Six Desires Secret, wouldn’t he just be waiting for death?

He didn’t want that, so he had to continue improving his strength.

More Potential Points, more points added, more sense of security.

This was Bai Xiao’s simple and direct logic.

...

The next day.

Huaisui City, in a suburban abandoned factory.

Bang!

A ferocious mantis sickle, fiercely chopped down a tall wooden box. Amidst the flying wood chips, it chopped rapidly at a figure.

Clang!!!

A flash of green light, and sparks burst out from the robust chest of the figure.

Hiss!!!

The Mantis Void Demon instantly burst forth, its transparent wings as large as fan blades fluttering, giving it unimaginable sprint speed.

Its two-meter tall body turned into a streak of green light in an instant.

Circling around the person in the middle, wildly hacking away.

Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang...

Countless collision sounds merged into a continuum, like all the craftsmen in a blacksmith’s shop forging iron together, the metallic sounds unending.

The figure in the middle was almost entirely enveloped by golden red sparks.

"Clang!"

A mantis sickle aimed at the back of the neck of the person, as fast as lightning.

However, clank!

A black hand suddenly reached out, grabbing the tip of the sickle.

Crack, crack, crack...

The Mantis Void Demon, trying its best to pull back its sickle, was locked down by a terrifying force, utterly unable to move even slightly.

"Had enough fun?"

The figure in the middle, at some point, turned around, revealing Bai Xiao’s face.

He was holding the Mantis Void Demon’s sickle with one hand, his expression cold, his robust body unscathed. Suddenly, Bai Xiao’s face broke into a slight smile.

With a fierce force in his right hand, he violently yanked.

The right arm sickle of the Mantis Void Demon was completely pulled off.

Blood sprayed from the fracture.

Under the severe pain, the Mantis Void Demon wanted to retreat frantically.

However, a streak of green light flashed, inch by inch ripping through the air.

Swish!

A blood line suddenly appeared on the Mantis Void Demon’s neck.

The next second, a ferocious head dropped to the ground.

"The third head."

Bai Xiao watched the corpse of the Void Demon, his emotions unchanged.

He took out his mobile phone, took a photo, and sent it to the coordinating personnel.

Afterwards, it wasn’t Bai Xiao’s concern anymore. He was only responsible for hunting these void demons lurking in the city. As for cleanup, that was left to the Martial Arts Association.

Creak!

A somewhat rusty iron gate was pushed open.

Bai Xiao walked out from the air thick with the smell of blood.

Facing the morning sun, which was not yet fiercely hot.

In his line of sight, the Experience gained in the last two to three hours was displayed.

[Your profession ’Martial Arts Association Member’, Experience +66!]

[Your Skill ’Urban Stability’, Experience +89!]

Truly quite substantial!
