Chapter 226: Body Cultivator
Chapter 226: Body Cultivator
Yan Xiao was no pushover either. He roared, pointing a finger towards the sky, and a giant finger descended, carrying immense pressure.
Li Kuangtu remained calm and unafraid.
He continued to form hand seals. As the giant finger approached, he abruptly raised his head, his eyes flashing with a sharp glint.
Back in the Li family, he was the child who cried and clung to Huang Xiujin after being called a coward.
Back then, it seemed like everything could frighten him. Although no one called him timid, thinking back now, he truly was a crybaby, a pampered and useless young master.
But now...
He had experienced it all, endured hardships. He had worn the heaviest armor in the world, stumbled, and risen countless times in the Thunderfire Cave with the help of his elder siblings. No one knew how much sweat he had shed, no one knew how he used medicinal liquids every day to soothe his bruised and battered shoulders from the weight of the armor.
Back then, he would still cry, secretly crying at night, afraid that Sister Kuanghua would scold him for being a "useless brother."
While venturing with his elders, he had felt fear in the Swamp Forest, been scared witless when Uncle Tianqi provoked Golden Core cultivators, and been tricked by Uncle Tianming into sleeping with a human head, which made him vomit.
Now...
"There's nothing to fear."
Seeing those struggling to resist the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and even a few cowards fleeing, Li Kuangtu boldly raised his spear. He utilized the family's "Phantom Shadow Steps" technique, creating hundreds of illusory copies of himself, dodging Yan Xiao's giant finger and its oppressive aura. His spear pointed directly at Yan Xiao.
He saw the terror in Yan Xiao's eyes and smiled slightly, his voice resounding across the entire battlefield!
"To hell with coward!"
"Now, I am the king of this battlefield!"
One strike.
Instant kill!
Watching the flames engulf Yan Xiao as he was pierced through by the spear, Li Kuangtu remained silent, his icy gaze fixed on a fleeing cultivator at the peak of Foundation Establishment.
He walked through the blood, the tip of his spear leaving trails of ripples on the ground, truly like a king surveying the battlefield.
...
"Pfft!"
In the chaotic battle, Li Kuanghua had already sprung into action at the very start!
She also utilized the Azure Cloud Unfallen technique and the 'Phantom Shadow Steps', creating hundreds of illusory copies of herself. But these opponents were indeed geniuses.
She stared blankly at the crimson sword tip protruding from her left shoulder, dripping with blood, seemingly disoriented.
"Bang!"
There was no room for hesitation on the battlefield. A palm strike hit her from behind, sending Li Kuanghua plummeting from the sky.
She turned in mid-air and saw the hidden Fake Core Formation expert. This opponent... was strong.
"Sis!"
"Kuanghua!"
The voices of her useless younger brother and her elder brother reached her ears. The two monks didn't seem to notice her. Li Kuanghua was still in a daze.
Her body trembled with pain.
The deepest fears within her memory were awakened, as they always were during these moments.
She remembered the time at the Hundred Fists Sect, when her wet nurse pricked her with needles, repeatedly held her head underwater, and burned the soles of her feet with fire.
No one knew that the reason she wanted to cultivate with her elder brother was because she had secretly told Li Dalong that she wanted to become stronger.
That way, no one would dare bully her again.
"Rip!"
The sound of something tearing through the air echoed as a cultivator saw Li Kuanghua fall to the ground. Seizing the opportunity, he swung his axe with a force that seemed to unleash all his true energy!
But at that very moment...
Li Kuanghua, whose body had seemed so delicate, suddenly erupted with power. Her muscles bulged, inch by inch, ripping her yellow dress apart, revealing the resilient animal hide garment she wore beneath!
"BOOM!"
Her hand firmly grasped the blade of the axe. With tremendous force, her arm, now as thick as an adult's thigh and bulging with muscles, slammed into the ground!
Her body, originally less than 1.6 meters tall, now stood at 1.8 meters, appearing even more muscular than Abbot Wuyou outside the Skyveil Sect's gates!
Her eyes were bloodshot as she looked down at the terrified genius, her large hand, veins bulging, gripping his neck.
Even her angry shout had a hint of delicateness to it.
"You want to hit me?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"No one, no one can bully me!"
She brutally snapped the cultivator's neck. His protective true energy was as fragile as thin paper against her palm!
She was also... the only body cultivator in the Li family!
[Your descendant, Li Kuanghua, repeatedly died within the Heaven-Piercing Coffin. She experienced endless pain and realized that only with a sufficiently powerful body could she prevent such abuse from her wet nurse ever again!]
[In the Thunderfire Cave, she wore the armor that constantly suppressed her physical strength, enduring immense pressure. She gradually interacted with the demon cultivators and obtained a body refining technique from one of them, becoming a body cultivator. Acquired profession — Ascetic Body Cultivator!]
[Acquired Trait: Wrath of the Weak Girl!]
[Normally, no one can perceive her immense physical strength. When injured, she becomes enraged, unleashing all her physical power. Combat power increased by 20%!]
That was why she always had a good relationship with the demon cultivators in the Thunderfire Cave. They gradually influenced her to use vulgar language. She needed to win their favor to obtain body-refining techniques from them!
That was why, despite her talent being inferior to Li Kuangtu's and her determination not as strong as Li Kuangren's, she could always run more easily than both of them!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The enraged Li Kuanghua pounded her fists on the battlefield, her pigtails flying wildly behind her. She caught the cultivator who had pierced her shoulder.
Then, she pinned him to the ground and, under his despairing gaze, pummeled him with her fists until he was a pulpy mess!
"Take a good look, you bastard!" she roared. "Who did you think you were hitting?!"
Li Kuanghua, covered in blood, roared furiously.
She was no longer that girl who suffered abuse but was too afraid to speak up. She no longer needed to tell anyone, no longer needed Huang Xiujin to take her to seek revenge.
She had power, she had ferocious muscles, muscles capable of battling Fake Core Formation cultivators!
