Chapter 0621 Shameless
Zhou Qi was punched in the stomach and he bent down and took three steps back. His internal organs, which had had little use over the years, showed with overwhelming pain that they still existed.
This was more sudden and painful than the punch on the face. Zhou Qi was not so dazed after suffering the second blow. He straightened up, frowned, and decided to end this little game.
Mu Xingqiu threw his second punch without any pause. His movements were faster than lightning, and there was only an instant between him and the first punch.
The moment was long enough for a Taoist priest. Zhou Qi made a series of movements, even adjusted his robes, and then put a finger on the oncoming fist.
Mu Xingxing's meridians were like a road after a raging storm. They were already in a mess. The external magic power rushed directly into the Niwan Palace and hit the newly restored inner elixir.
Mu Xingqiu's whole body went numb, and then his head felt as if he had been hit by a hammer. There was a buzzing sound that lingered in his ears. He tilted his head involuntarily, and his body also tilted slightly, but he did not die or even fall. He was numb. The fist continued to move forward, slightly off position, and hit Zhou Qi's brow.
The ensuing fighting scene was quite strange: Zhou Qi just pointed here and there with his fingers, but Mu Xingqiu seemed to be hit repeatedly with heavy punches, his head swayed from side to side, and his body twitched from time to time, but he still approached step by step, Punch after punch was thrown out, a few missed, and most of them hit the Taoist priest's head and chest, forcing the opponent to retreat step by step.
It's like an honest Taoist priest met a tyrannical gangster. One stretched out his hand to calmly talk some truth, but the other just answered with his fists.
But the truth is exactly the opposite. Zhou Qi only suffered some flesh wounds, while Mu Xingqiu was constantly hit by the inner alchemy. Without the protective power generated by the fundamental escape method, the inner alchemy was completely exposed to the magical power of the Taoist priest. Under this, all defenses are in vain, and there is no other way to deal with it except to bear it directly.
Both of them had the simplest ideas. Zhou Qi wanted to destroy the enemy from the inner elixir, while Mu Xingqiu wanted to disappear the opponent's body. At the same time, both of them were surprised. Zhou Qi didn't understand an unprotected weapon. Why was the Xingluo inner elixir so strong? Mu Xingqiu couldn't understand why a Taoist priest's body was so beaten.
When Mu Xingqiu threw his seventeenth punch, Zhou Qi finally changed his fighting style. His body turned into a cloud of smoke, flashed to the top of the cave, and condensed into a human form again. The injuries on his body could not be eliminated immediately. His face was bruised and swollen, and he was wearing a Taoist robe. It was torn in several places, especially the iconic long beard, which looked like a mop that had just wiped the dirty floor. It was tangled and dripping with water, and it didn't look like a Taoist priest at all.
Mu Xingqiu's condition on the ground was not much better. Although there were no wounds on his body, his meridians were almost completely destroyed. The pain extended from his toes to the top of his head. It was as if a hundred hacksaws were cutting around his body. He swung out Seventeen punches, but the inner alchemy suffered nearly a hundred blows. His mind was dizzy, the world was spinning in front of his eyes, and he could hardly stand still, let alone jump up to chase the enemy.
"You finally turned into a demon." Zhou Qi was also out of breath, and frowned again as soon as he spoke, "No, your inner elixir is still the Taoist inner elixir, but...it just has some more characteristics of the demon elixir."
The Taoist inner elixir contains the most mana, while the demon elixir is mixed but harder and can withstand a certain degree of spell attacks. The inner elixir in Mu Xingxing's Niwan Palace has these two characteristics at the moment, but he cannot cast spells and has no mana. Useful place.
"It turns out that the loophole in the Dou Zhuan Star Shifting Formation is also very simple. As long as you are strong enough, you can cast spells, but the strength will be reduced a lot. Your concentration spells can probably only be used at the level of the Star Falling Realm, but there are more tricks."
Zhou Qi snorted. If he could still exert his strength at the concentration level here, how could he allow Mu Xingqiu to fight back? Although the spells in the Xingluo realm are enough to destroy most enemies who cannot cast spells, Mu Xingqiu's inner elixir is surprisingly stubborn.
Zhou Qi waved his hand gently and shot an ice thorn at Mu Xingqiu, followed by the second and third ice thorns. Since he could not destroy the strange inner elixir, he used magic to kill Mu Xingqiu's body. There will be no more close combat.
He somewhat understands why Zuo Liuying and Yishijun value this boy. Mu Xingqiu's intelligence and understanding are not top-notch, but his will is as strong as a ten thousand-year-old stone that cannot be softened by water or melted by fire. Suitable for doing things that humans cannot do.
Mu Xingqiu was still unable to cast spells. Seeing the ice spikes flying towards him, he did not dodge and blocked them with his fists. This is not ordinary ice, but a spell condensed from the five elements of water. It is harder and sharper than ordinary swords. But Mu Xingqiu's body is no longer ordinary. The meridians are destroyed and the magic power has nowhere to operate. It can only act like a demon pill. The demon power generated was also soaked in the flesh and bones, which gave him a body that was stronger than the demon clan.
The first two ice spikes were smashed into pieces, and the third one flew past Mu Xingqiu's left arm, cutting through his clothes but leaving only a shallow scratch on his skin.
Zhou Qi's face was a little distorted. He had personally created this inner elixir that combined Taoism and demonism into one, allowing Mu Xingqiu to resist powerful spells, but he was helpless.
"Didn't the Demon Seed give you a strong body? Why don't you have the guts to come down and fight?" Mu Xingqiu guessed why Zhou Qi was beaten. He must have benefited from the Demon Seed.
Zhou Qi's physique has indeed been strengthened, but he doesn't want to fight with a madman, and he hates the physical fighting style. He is a Taoist priest who pays attention to the spirit, and is a Taoist and demon cultivator. He is stronger than Taoist priests in the same realm, but The premise is a battle of skills, not a boxing contest.
The Dou Zhuan Xing Yi Formation imprisoned other people's spells, and also imprisoned himself. The Zhu Shen suddenly descended to Xing Luo, and Zhou Qi experienced the helplessness of the weak.
But he still had a way.
"The decisive battle on the ground is about to begin. Bing Kui will kill all the monsters and turn Bingcheng into the first hub. Mu Xingqiu, you can't leave Qianlong Cave until then. You can stay in the range of the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi Formation, or you can go out and fight again."
After leaving the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi Formation, Mu Xingqiu's physique will not change. His meridians are severely damaged. It is hard to say whether he can recover to cast spells. However, Zhou Qi can freely cast spells in the Zhu Shen realm. No matter how special Mu Xingqiu's inner elixir is, it is impossible to take the attack of the Zhu Shen Taoist.
"I created you." Zhou Qi regretted it in his heart, but his expression did not show it at all, "I have to kill you too."
"Go and heal the wound on your face first. I hope my opponent at least looks like a Zhu Shen Taoist." Mu Xingqiu disdained the threat.
"Haha." Zhou Qi laughed in anger, "Good boy, I know that many powerful people have tried to win you over, Zuo Liuying, Yi Shijun... Even the demon species once hoped that you could become a demon, which allowed you to escape many disasters, but your good luck is over. After the first hub is built, come out to find me, and we will have a real fight. As a token of this battle..."
Mu Xingqiu got closer and held the head together with the colorful mucus shell in his arms.
The bald man was Mu Xingqiu's closest partner, and there were a few drops of water from the sword washing pool in his mind, which Zhou Qi valued.
"Let go." Zhou Qi cast a spell, not daring to bring Mu Xingqiu with him, so he manipulated the bald man's head to fly up and down, hoping to throw Mu Xingqiu off.
Zhou Qi once again experienced Mu Xingqiu's stubbornness. No matter how violently the head was tossed, he would not let go.
Zhou Qi had to give up, "Mu Xingqiu, you have to make a choice."
Mu Xingqiu felt dizzy and hugged the bald man tightly. He shook his head and stood up again. He looked at Zhou Qi and saw that his left hand was pointing at the flea.
"There is water from the sword washing pool in the head. I won't kill him, but I will kill this beast and all the little demons. Make a choice. Hand over the head and fight me again in three hours, or hold the head and watch me kill the Qilin and the little demon."
Mu Xingqiu couldn't protect so many targets. In fact, he might not even be able to protect the bald man. If Zhou Qi really wanted to kill him, a few spells would solve it. As long as Mu Xingqiu missed one, the bald man would definitely die.
But handing over the bald man personally would be no different from betrayal. Mu Xingqiu did it once and regretted it until now. He never wanted to do it again. He looked down and saw that there were several colors in the bald man's mucus shell, and he could only vaguely see the bald man's eyebrows.
"Even if you are possessed by a demon, you are still a Taoist priest." Mu Xingqiu hoped that Zhou Qi still had a trace of dignity in his heart.
"This is the real perfection. There is no need to be ruthless and give up desires, but I am not affected by any emotions. I only do what I want to do."
"There is a ready-made saying for people like you, called 'shameless people'."
"Hand over your head." Zhou Qi was unmoved. Dozens of spells appeared in front of him, including gold, wood, water, fire and earth. If Mu Xingqiu continued to be stubborn, he would cast them at the same time to kill Qilin and all the little demons at once. "I am willing to give you a choice, you should be content."
Mu Xingqiu was extremely angry and looked down at the bald man again. To his surprise, the color of the mucus shell faded a little, and the bald man inside actually woke up and smiled at him. Mu Xingqiu thought he had seen it wrong, blinked twice, and looked again.
The bald man did wake up. He didn't need to breathe. It was okay to wake up in the mucus. He heard the noise outside and understood what happened. He couldn't speak or make too many expressions. He could only smile and tell Brother Xiaoqiu that he was not afraid.
Mu Xingqiu was even more reluctant, but when Zhou Qi cast a spell to take the bald man away, Mu Xingqiu's arms did not exert force.
The bald man slowly slid out of his arms. He kept smiling and blinking his eyes, as if he was going to be taken out to play by an acquaintance. He left Mu Xingqiu's palm and flew to Zhou Qi's side. Although the mucus had hardened, the surface was still a little slippery and soft. Zhou Qi did not touch it.
Mu Xingqiu's hands were covered with mucus, still stretched in the air. He said nothing, just stared at Zhou Qi.
"Within three hours, the battle on the ground will be over, and Bing Kui will dig an exit for you. Go north, and you will find me and this head after you get out of the confinement of the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi Array."
Zhou Qi turned into smoke, surrounding the bald man, and after a moment, there was nothing left.
Compared to pure magic, pure power still loses.
