Longevity Begins with the Seven Injuries Fist
Chapter 540 - 304: Hundred-legged Bodhisattva!
Name: Su Que (21 years old)
Remaining Lifespan: 9552
Su Que extracted the Lifebound Demon Seed from the body of the Baggy Arhat.
Then, using his mind to urge the Lifebound Demon Seed, he poured all the essence, qi, and spirit into his own flesh and spirit.
He savored the pleasure brought by the enhancement of his body and spirit and glanced at his attributes.
He knew that the essence, qi, and spirit of those demon monks, bhikkhus, warriors, and this Baggy Arhat had granted him over six hundred years of life.
’A lifespan reaching over 9,500 years, the lifespan at the peak of the Merging Realm barely exceeds 10,000 years...’
Su Que thought to himself, meaning that in terms of his current lifespan, his soul and body had reached the late stage of the Merging Realm.
After obtaining the essence, qi, and spirit of the Baggy Arhat, Su Que extended his hand, capturing the falling body of the Baggy Arhat.
A yellow storage pouch and also the magical treasure of the Baggy Arhat, the "Hundred Treasures Qiankun Bag," flew up simultaneously and were caught by Su Que.
Just as Su Que was about to store these items into the storage pouch, the City Lord of that city, accompanied by a group of loose cultivators, flew over to Su Que’s side.
The City Lord first cupped his hands, then said, "Friend, we had a part in slaying this Baggy Arhat. Might you share some of his belongings with us?"
When the Baggy Arhat was escaping, these loose cultivators each demonstrated their divine powers, blocking the Arhat’s retreat.
They believed that without their actions, the Baggy Arhat would have escaped.
However, Su Que did not think so.
His spirit was strong, enabling him to fly swiftly, and he could accelerate further using the Circulating Eight Forces.
Even if letting that Baggy Arhat escape for a while, he could still catch up.
So, whether or not these loose cultivators were present, he would be able to kill the Baggy Arhat and seize the storage pouch.
Moreover, he was alone in the Upper Realm, without any faction behind him, definitely a loose cultivator who also lacked cultivation resources.
He did not wish to share his cultivation resources with those loose cultivators.
"I urgently need cultivation resources, please understand." Su Que said softly and then descended to find the severely injured body of the Red Sound Fire Vajra.
Although the five viscera of the Red Sound Fire Vajra were shattered, a cultivator of the Merging Realm would not die easily unless their head was destroyed.
Su Que wanted to obtain the memory, essence, qi, and spirit of the Red Sound Fire Vajra as well as his storage pouch.
Also, at the corpses of the demon monks, bhikkhus, and warriors he killed previously, there were storage pouches, all of which he intended to collect.
"Friend, we also had a part in killing these people. Taking all the cultivation resources for yourself seems not very fair!"
The City Lord, seeing that Su Que was unwilling to share resources, immediately spoke more forcefully.
He thought, they had several thousand people, and Su Que was alone.
If they surrounded him, Su Que surely could not escape.
After the City Lord said this, the other loose cultivators, quite cooperatively, released their auras, intending to pressure Su Que.
But Su Que felt no trace of fear in his heart.
Judging from these loose cultivators’ previous battles with the divine buddhas of the Spirit Mountain, he knew these loose cultivators did not have any united array.
If these two thousand loose cultivators had a united array, he would indeed need to quickly escape, wait for them to gather the cultivation resources of the divine buddhas, and then return to ambush and seize all the cultivation resources.
However, since these loose cultivators did not have a united array, just relying on his excellent body technique speed, they could not unite their forces.
He could completely defeat these loose cultivators one by one.
Two thousand loose cultivators were just like ripe wheat waiting to be harvested for him.
Seeing Su Que ignored him, the City Lord snorted inwardly, and with a grasp of his five fingers, dozens of invisible sword qi formed in the sky, converging toward Su Que.
At the same time, the other loose cultivators also began their attacks, deciding to defeat Su Que and seize all the cultivation resources he had acquired.
Confident of surpassing Su Que, seeing no reconciliation, they immediately took action.
At this moment, Su Que’s heart stirred, and he unleashed the "Time Pause" of the Dark Evil Fist.
Enough time had passed since the last release for him to cast it again.
Although the effectiveness was reduced compared to the last release due to the short interval,
it was still more than enough to deal with this City Lord who was only at the ninth-layer of the Merging Realm.
The power of the Dark Evil Fist suddenly spread from Su Que’s body like rippling waves.
In an instant, it enveloped those two thousand loose cultivators.
The City Lord’s movements, the spells of the loose cultivators, the invisible sword qi attacking Su Que’s surroundings—all froze in that moment.
Su Que tightened his grip on the blood-colored demon saber "Breaking the Red Dust," and his form moved, rushing upward toward the City Lord.
As he was about to reach the City Lord, Su Que grasped "Breaking the Red Dust" with both hands and slashed upward!
The City Lord’s neck was severed by "Breaking the Red Dust," and his entire head spun up into the sky.
The next moment, time resumed its flow.
The loose cultivators then saw that their City Lord had lost his head, with blood spraying high from the neck.
Witnessing this scene, the faces of the loose cultivators turned pale.
Some of the more timid ones even started trembling unconsciously.
At this moment, they were all concerned about preserving their own lives, with no thought of acquiring cultivation resources.
They all pushed off with their feet, hurriedly flying away from the place.
Su Que ignored those fleeing loose cultivators, merely reaching up to seize the City Lord’s head.
With a tight grip, he caught hold of the City Lord’s hair.
