Chapter 1142: Chapter 1142: A Punch to Victory Over Black Tortoise

In the process of crossing hands, Ning Fan found that if he used Spiritual Power, it would intensify the layer of earthy yellow glow on Black Tortoise’s body.

So, he made a fierce decision and opted to engage Black Tortoise with his physical body alone.

As expected, when he started using purely physical strength, the earthy yellow glow no longer emanated from Black Tortoise’s body.

Even so, Ning Fan still found the fight extremely challenging.

After a Spiritual Technique gains spiritual intelligence, it naturally masters all techniques within it, making it as formidable in combat as a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Without any other power enhancement, both of them, relying solely on their techniques, barely managed a stalemate.

"You’re impressive, relying purely on physical strength to fight Black Tortoise to this extent," the old man said with an appreciative look.

Although still not equivalent to the strength of his own Lord in the old days, having such combat skills at such a young age was already quite remarkable.

"Bang!"

Ning Fan and Black Tortoise punched each other once more, both retreating several meters away.

The Man in the Black Mist squinted, "The time to decide the victor has arrived."

From his perspective, the two had already fought for as many as five hundred moves, almost fully understanding each other’s tactics.

To defeat his opponent, it was necessary to unleash the ultimate move.

Ning Fan took a deep breath, his palms stacked in front of him, one behind the other, facing Black Tortoise.

Black Tortoise too raised his arms in front of him, assuming a complete defensive posture.

"As a Spiritual Technique without self-awareness, you are very strong, and I respect you," Ning Fan said calmly, "but unfortunately, I must defeat you, so... sorry!"

The moment his words ended, Ning Fan fiercely thrust his legs.

Fierce power transmitted from under his feet, blasting two deep pits in the ground.

Immediately, his figure swiftly turned into a blur, reaching Black Tortoise in less than a moment.

Under everyone’s gaze, Ning Fan just swung a punch, seemingly ordinary.

"This... has he gone mad?"

"Thinking he can defeat Black Tortoise with such a punch?"

"That’s basically impossible."

People exclaimed continuously, all sweating for Ning Fan.

In their view, Ning Fan’s punch was utterly ordinary, with not even a hint of technique in it.

Only the Man in the Black Mist and the Formation Spirit, upon seeing this punch, had their eyes shine with astonishing brilliance.

Black Tortoise, facing this punch, didn’t react at all, seemingly stunned as he let Ning Fan’s punch strike him.

At the moment of contact, the fierce power erupted like a long-dormant volcano.

"Boom!"

Deafening roars exploded, and invisible shockwaves spread in all directions from their feet.

Under everyone’s watch, Black Tortoise’s hands slowly lifted, seemingly trying to neutralize the power inside him.

However, it was already too late.

Buzz—

Black Tortoise’s body trembled slightly and then broke into a myriad of lights that drifted away with the wind.

Among these lights, a cluster of bright essence floated in mid-air.

"That’s part of the Spiritual Technique represented by Black Tortoise, you can take it," the old man said, admiration evident in his eyes.

Ning Fan stepped forward and grabbed the cluster of essence.

A great deal of memory suddenly flooded into his mind, various complex and profound Spiritual Technique methods continuously bombarded his mind.

Each technique was incredibly profound, more exquisite than all martial techniques he had ever seen.

Moments later, Ning Fan had completely absorbed the memory within the essence, clenching his fists in amazement.

"Incredible... just a part of the Spiritual Technique has already given me such an enhancement."

The essence not only contained techniques but also some powerful Spiritual Power.

When Ning Fan absorbed it, he not only mastered the Spiritual Technique’s methods but also increased a part of his Spiritual Power.

Although it was not enough for a breakthrough, it was a considerable help for him at this moment.

Miao Si and others were dumbfounded, hardly believing their eyes.

The four of them together couldn’t even break through Black Tortoise’s defense.

Yet, Ning Fan, with such an ordinary punch, had easily defeated Black Tortoise.

How was this possible?

"Has this young man’s strength become so formidable?" Miao Si thought, a deep fear emerging in his eyes.

The other three Sect Masters also gathered, whispering among themselves.

"Old Miao, this young man’s strength is too peculiar."

"Yes, do we really still want to confront him?"

"I feel a bit uncertain..."

Miao Si swallowed his saliva, his teeth clenched, "Let’s wait and see, wait and see."

Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng, Huang Gu, and The Man in the Black Mist approached Ning Fan, looking at him with concern.

"Sect Master, are you alright?"

Ning Fan waved his hand, smiling, "Don’t worry,, this Black Tortoise actually isn’t as strong as you think."

The Man in the Black Mist smiled, "I didn’t expect you to find a way to beat Black Tortoise."

"It was also fortunate. This Black Tortoise cannot be dealt with by means other than its own strength," Ning Fan said gravely, "Only by relying on one’s own strength and defeating the opponent can you truly gain Black Tortoise’s recognition."

In fact, his punch just now wasn’t really capable of breaking through Black Tortoise’s defense.

But it was because he found Black Tortoise’s weakness that he gained Black Tortoise’s recognition.

He eventually won because of the Spiritual Technique’s acknowledgment.

"So, the key to defeating the Four Symbols is to gain their recognition?" Vice Sect Master Zhuang Peng asked, puzzled.

Ning Fan nodded, "Yes, only in this way can you truly obtain the latter part of the Spiritual Technique."

"That’s great, with your strength, Master, you’re sure to gain these Spiritual Techniques’ recognition quickly!" Huang Gu said excitedly, "Let’s continue."

"Okay, I’ll recover some energy and then continue."

Ning Fan sat cross-legged, circulating his Cultivation Technique to recover the Spiritual Power inside his body.
