BOOM—!

Extreme cold and extreme heat collided in midair!

CRACK!

A crisp, horrifying crack of bone echoed across the deck.

The arrogant sneer on Huyan Mo’s face froze the instant their fists met. He felt his vaunted Cold Palm Power, his pride and joy, slam into an erupting volcano!

That tyrannical Fist Force, seemingly capable of crushing anything in its path, not only instantly demolished his cold energy with unstoppable momentum but also brutally shattered his right arm!

Immediately after, the blood-colored baleful aura, as if alive, shot into his mind and seared his very soul.

This was one of the key traits of the Apefiend’s baleful aura. Now that Su Yu had killed enough enemies, it was finally beginning to display its true power.

Not only could it enhance his attack power, but it could also damage an enemy’s soul!

"Ahhh!"

Huyan Mo let out a bloodcurdling scream as his entire right arm hung limply at his side.

As if struck head-on by a heavy battering ram, his body shot backward uncontrollably, his eyes filled with the utter shock of someone who had just seen a ghost.

"How is this possible? How can you be so strong?!"

A storm of disbelief raged in Huyan Mo’s heart.

At that moment, he finally understood. The intel that said Su Yu had killed Qin Bashan was actually fucking true!

’Just what kind of terrifying foundation did he have to be able to cross a whole realm and defeat me in a single move?!’

Fear now gripped his heart, and he wanted to retreat.

However, Su Yu gave him no chance to catch his breath.

His Qi and Blood surged once more, and his figure closed the distance like a shadow.

BANG!

A heavy, armor-piercing punch, as weighty as Mount Tai and imbued with the terrifying, stacking power of the Hundred Fierce Peaks, viciously smashed toward Huyan Mo’s face.

Before the fist even arrived, the violent astral wind it generated howled forth like tangible blades, slicing his long beard to pieces.

Terrified out of his mind, Huyan Mo could only desperately swing his good left arm up to block.

CRACK!

In an instant, the sound of his left arm cracking under the strain echoed out again, and his entire body was sent flying, crashing into a corner of the ship’s railing!

"Puh... Young Master Xin! Save me!!!"

At the brink of death, Huyan Mo cast aside all pride, screaming a desperate plea for help to the giant on the speedboat opposite them.

Just as Su Yu’s fatal next punch was about to smash Huyan Mo’s skull...

"ROAR—!"

On the speedboat, Hu Yanxin, who had been gnawing on raw meat, tossed aside the cow leg bone he had sucked dry of marrow.

A violent, scarlet light erupted from his murky eyes as he let out a furious roar in their direction.

The massive roar, like that of a Demon Beast, kicked up a great gust of wind.

However, Su Yu simply thought that this man seemed to be a genuine beast, with rather low intelligence.

’I’ve been fighting his subordinate for several breaths now, and he’s just been over there chewing on a bone. Does he really think roaring at me is going to make me stop?’

SPLAT!

Su Yu’s fist descended without hesitation, smashing into Huyan Mo’s head and instantly bursting it like a rotten watermelon.

"You animal! I’ll tear you to shreds!"

Seeing his companion die, Hu Yanxin’s eyes grew even redder, and he let out another furious roar at Su Yu.

BANG!

The bow of the speedboat was instantly crushed under his terrifying strength.

The ten-foot-tall mountain of flesh launched himself like a heavy meteorite fired from a cannon, accompanied by a piercing sonic boom as he tore through the air and crashed down toward the Jiang Family’s treasure ship!

Before he even landed, Hu Yanxin swung his right fist, as thick as a water vat, in midair. Carrying a terrifying "momentum," it smashed down viciously toward Su Yu’s position!

His "momentum" had no frills; it seemed to be a pure amplification of power.

’What terrifying momentum!’

Alarm bells screamed in Su Yu’s mind. His Five Senses Divine intuition was frantically telling him one thing.

’I’ll die!’

’The Muscle Forging Realm truly is a massive gulf. Even with all my trump cards, it’s difficult to cross.’

He instantly pushed his Seven Fiends Thunder Collapse Step to its limit, his figure flashing like lightning as he retreated dozens of yards in an instant.

BOOM—!!!

Hu Yanxin’s terrifying punch missed, slamming heavily onto the deck of the treasure ship.

A terrifying sound, as if the heavens were collapsing and the earth was splitting, rang out.

The thick mainmast, so wide it would take several people to encircle and crafted from hundred-year-old ironwood, was blasted into a cloud of splinters by the terrifying astral wind radiating from his punch!

A huge hole several yards wide was smashed into the sturdy deck, and the entire Jiang Family treasure ship shook violently under the inhuman destructive force, looking as if it might break apart and sink at any moment.

In the hold below, the crew members who had taken shelter looked up at the gaping hole, their legs trembling in fear. They hugged the pillars, shivering, not daring to even breathe too loudly.

"Why you can move?"

Hu Yanxin drooled, panting heavily as he looked at Su Yu, a flicker of confusion in his eyes.

’Usually, when he hit people, they couldn’t move. They just died from his one punch...’

"Tear you up... Me gonna tear you up alive... eat your meat raw!"

After a moment of confusion, Hu Yanxin seemed to be utterly enraged by the fact that Su Yu had dodged his punch.

He shot upright, let out another savage, beast-like roar, and kicked off the deck, charging crazily toward Su Yu like a heavy war chariot!

Before Hu Yanxin’s charge reached him, Su Yu had already taken out a tiger bone ginseng, devouring it in two bites like a cow chewing on peonies.

The vast medicinal power instantly dissolved in his stomach.

Su Yu also let out a roar in his heart. ’White Ape Transformation!’

CRACK-CRACK-CRACK-CRACK—!

The grating sound of bones lengthening exploded from within Su Yu’s body. In an instant, he grew nearly a foot taller, and his once-symmetrical muscles twisted and bulged like inflating steel cables.

His skin instantly turned a deep, dark gold, and his black hair cascaded wildly down to his waist. An ancient, tyrannical, and terrifying power erupted from within him!

At that moment, Hu Yanxin’s giant fist, crashing down with the force of Mount Tai, finally arrived.

A savage light flashed in Su Yu’s eyes. His arms now covered in the Profound Silver Flow Armor, he met the attack head-on with a Demon Ape Shakes the Mountain fist, not yielding an inch!

This was also the first fist of the Hundred Fierce Peaks!

BOOM!

The two fists collided like a pair of meteorites smashing into each other in midair.

The violent astral wind instantly ripped up the surrounding deck planks.

Even though all of Su Yu’s Attributes had doubled, he was still at a disadvantage in this exchange against the absolute physical foundation of a Muscle Forging Realm expert.

Su Yu grunted, his feet plowing two deep grooves into the deck as he slid back three steps.

"ROAR—!"

Even though he had the upper hand in that blow, Hu Yanxin became even more furious.

’How could he not have smashed this tiny, monkey-like human into paste with one punch?’

Immediately, he pounced forward to kill again!

"Again!"

Su Yu stabilized himself, an even wilder frenzy in his eyes.

He found that he enjoyed this clash of power. Though his arms were a bit numb, the previous impact had only fueled the fighting spirit in his eyes!

Using the recoil, his spinal column twisted like a great dragon, and he gathered the surging power into his fist, punching out once more!

The second fist of Hundred Fierce Peaks!

Power amplification: Twenty percent!

BANG!

Another earth-shattering boom!

Su Yu was once again knocked back two steps.

"Tear you up! Me gonna tear you up!" Hu Yanxin grew more excited and frenzied as he felt the recoil from his fist. His massive maw gaped open, spittle flying, as he threw another heavy punch like a falling star!

"The third fist!"

A layer of dark red baleful aura now covered Su Yu’s body, and the Qi and Blood within him roiled like boiling magma.

As he threw this punch, the Traits of Ape Shadow Gale and Hundred Fierce Peaks stacked once more!

BOOM!

This time, the two of them were like a pair of immovable mountains, locked in a stalemate!

Evenly matched!

Hu Yanxin’s bloodshot eyes widened, his already inadequate brain completely short-circuiting.

’What’s going on?’

’Just now, me was knocking this monkey back, so why is his fist as hard as mine now?’

However, he was given no time to think.

"Fourth fist! Get back!"

Su Yu let out a furious roar, augmented by the Vajra Fearless True Sound, which made Hu Yanxin’s head swim and his punch slow by a fraction.

At the same time, the blood-red baleful aura on Su Yu’s right fist grew denser, and the forty percent power amplification from Hundred Fierce Peaks erupted forth!

BANG—

CRACK!

This punch tyrannically smashed through Hu Yanxin’s already-slowed fist wind!

Before Hu Yanxin’s incredulous eyes, his right arm, as thick as a water vat, was bent back sharply by this brutish, strange force.

His massive, several-hundred-pound mountain of flesh was forcefully knocked back three large steps!

Each step backward punched a terrifyingly large hole in the deck. The layers of fat on Hu Yanxin’s body rippled violently like waves under the force of the recoil, a sight both comical and horrifying.

"The fifth move!"

With a flash of his feet, Su Yu closed the distance as if teleporting, appearing right in front of Hu Yanxin’s chest.

He splayed his five fingers like the claws of an enraged ape. Qi and Blood instantly gathered in the four extremities—his knuckles and forearm—making his fingers hard as diamond and causing his veins to bulge like dragons.

He viciously tore at the arm Hu Yanxin had hastily raised to defend himself.

RRRIP!

With this brutal move, Su Yu tore open his opponent’s arm, breaking through his defense.

Hu Yanxin shrieked in pain, "Ah! Dad! Help me! Me arm is broken!"

The intense pain instantly shattered the simple-minded giant’s ferocity. He clutched his broken right arm, his scarlet eyes filled with terror and fear.

Where was the arrogant swagger he had just moments ago when he’d threatened to tear Su Yu apart?

He actually turned and fled like a startled animal, scrambling frantically toward the speedboat!

Seeing this, Su Yu shook his head in disappointment.

’This man seemed unusually savage, but he’s really just a beast. The moment he’s injured, he loses all his momentum.’

’He’s a far cry from a true Muscle Forging Realm master!’

’But since he wanted to kill me, I won’t let him go!’

Su Yu leaped high into the air. He compressed the sixty percent power amplification from Hundred Fierce Peaks into his right fist and, with a sonic boom that tore through the air, instantly caught up to Hu Yanxin and smashed it into his broad back!

SPURT—!
