Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 165
Jiang Xiu stood there with hands behind his back, a cold glint in his eyes as his hair swayed in the air, giving him a grandeur look. At this moment, all the people present there suffered an intense shock to their hearts due to his strength.
Behind him, that golden giant which was several hundred meters tall issued painful howls. It clenched his chest in agony. Jiang Xiu had penetrated to its heart and planted a talisman seed there. If Jiang Xiu activated it, there was no doubt he would perish.
If the realms were to be compared, the golden giant was a God while Jiang Xiu was a Demigod. It would have been difficult for anyone else to win against the giant, but Jiang Xiu was the Sect Master of the Heaven Treading Sect. Though he didn't have his 3 millenniums of cultivation force, he possessed various kinds of spells.
Landscape Transformation could expel the weight of the golden giant.
Gold Fragmentation could break the defense of the golden giant's body.
These two spells have several ways of implementation. Only a God-King could possibly understand the mysteries behind Gold Fragmentation, but Jiang Xiu could use it with a simple wave of his hand.
This was akin to a using a maxed-out skill at a rank 1 novice village.
Similar to a cheat in an online game.
If he weren't a Demigod, he wouldn't have even needed to expend divine force to use these two spells entirely. The Divine Race couldn't use some spells while some could be used by them but not by Immortals, and some could be used by both Gods and Immortals.
And these two spells fell under the last category. Both Gods and Immortals could use them.
Booom!
The golden giant couldn't endure the pain in its heart and thus knelt down. Due to its large body's weight, it caused the entire ground to tremble when it knelt.
The talisman which had been planted at its heart was glowing with a white halo. It still didn't know what kind of talisman it was, but the giant was still quite frightened as it would get destroyed entirely in case the power of the talisman broke out.
"I beg High God to spare my life!"
The giant gold god was actually kneeling down and begging forgiveness… This was hard to believe.
Jiang Xiu had subdued a God. Mu Sen judged that there was no doubt that Jiang Xiu was a Demigod and it was even possible he was a God. He never expected that such an existence still existed in the modern world. The skills Jiang Xiu had displayed just now were inconceivable, and none could match them in the entire country. Mu Sen had never seen someone more powerful than Jiang Xiu.
The others couldn't remain collected as they gazed at Jiang Xiu again.
"This is Jiangnan's Mr. Jiang?"
The bandits finally realized how mighty Jiang Xiu was. There was no way they could handle him with their guns. Sang Bao felt a chill creep up his back. He had tried to fight over Jiang Xiu's water after all.
Jiang Xiu stood there with a calm expression on his face, but the fear everyone felt in their hearts still hadn't dissipated, it only grew stronger.
He was that fearsome!
A voice full of fury suddenly came through, "Jiang Xiu, if you were so powerful, why didn't you act earlier?"
It was Qiu Yinru. Her pretty eyes were full of rage at the moment.
"Why didn't you act when the bandits attacked us? So many people died in vain."
"Those lives are all your responsibility."
Qiu Yinru couldn't contain the fury in her heart. She believed Jiang Xiu had acted really excessive. He could have naturally prevented the bandits from killing people, yet he had done nothing.
"Hehe. This student, what duty does Mr. Jiang have to save you all? Why do you criticize him?"
Li Chengzhi jumped on this opportunity to bootlick.
In this world, a person could act heroically for a just cause, but that doesn't mean one should entrap others by taking advantage of their virtue. Let alone, Li Chengzhi had seen how all of them had isolated Jiang Xiu during the entire journey.
Jiang Xiu's eyes swept past everyone. A cold gleam flashed through his eyes as he raised his hand. That tobacco smoking old man from the Jin family didn't even have the time to react before he got sliced from the energy pulse Jiang Xiu sent towards him, beheading his head from his body.
The blood splattered across Qiu Yinru's face.
Hiss!
Everyone sucked in a cold breath.
This method…
Qiu Yinru shuddered all over. The warm blood dripped along her face. It felt as if s bucket of iced water had been splashed on top of her head, drenching all her body. She was left dumbfounded.
Her breath became rushed as her eyes grew wide in fear. If Jiang Xiu had taken aim at her just now, she would've ended up like that elder of the Jin family, beheaded on the scene.
Feeling the warm blood as well as looking at the ice-cold dead body on the ground, Qiu Yinru realized in the depths of her heart about what kind of person Jiang Xiu was.
Her legs lost strength. She couldn't keep standing anymore and fell down to the ground.
"I didn't kill you today because you are my classmate. Otherwise, you would have ended up just like this person…"
Qiu Yinru nodded in fear.
The Jin family members were extremely gloomy. If you want to lesson someone, do it, but was there a need to kill a member of our Jin family for that? Also, you killed an elder of the family. This is a real disaster.
All of them opened their eyes wide in fury as if they wished to dice Jiang Xiu into pieces.
Mu Sen's complexion turned ashen, "Mr. Jiang, what do you mean by this? Why did you kill my Jin family's elder who was innocent? Aren't your actions too excessive?"
"Innocent?"
Jiang Xiu's cold gaze wandered on him, "Your Jin family has sent out so many elite members into the depths of the desert to chase after me by making a big scene. Tell me, did you come here just to meet me?"
"…" Mu Sen was left speechless.
They had initially chased him into the desert to take revenge for Jin Xi by killing him, but none of them had expected that Jiang Xiu would be so mighty.
They couldn't take revenge nor could they just pass it off as nothing.
They were stuck in a dilemma as they couldn't advance or retreat in this situation.
"Now, do you still think you are innocent? Not only him, but all of you should also prepare yourselves since you planned to kill me. You should have heard that I, Jiang Luoxia, never leaves my enemies alive."
The expressions of the people from the Jin family all darkened.
Mu Sen made a gloomy face as well, "Jiang Luoxia, though you could defeat the golden giant, it doesn't mean you can defeat me. Do you really want to fall out and bet your life on it?" As he said these words, his body slowly began to transform.
His face withered while releasing a throbbing sound. It was as if it had become a dead tree. His neck, body as well as his arms had also transformed into wood.
The core of a person was the bloodline. Right now, it seemed as if his organs had disappeared as well.
His body began to glow with a faint azure luster.
"Wood-type Demigod Body Transformation?"
Jiang Xiu revealed a smile on his face. This Mu Sen was stronger compared to Wang Jianzhi of the Wang family. After his entire body finishes transforming into wood, he would become a genuine god of the Azure Wood Divine Race.
His progress towards this was quite far. For comparison, it could be said that he had reached the final few hundred meters mark of a 50 km long journey.
"It seems you're quite knowledgeable…"
Mu Sen's face had become stiff, and thus his voice had also changed. It became obscure and seemed to possess a tint of the boundless divine language.
"Do you still want to bet your life against my Jin family?"
His tone was full of confidence.
"Indeed, an impossibly stupid person." Jiang Xiu commented.
"The one who'll die is you!"
Mu Sen took in a deep breath, "You can try then…" He plunged towards Jiang Xiu immediately after saying this, punching out towards him with his wooden body which was harder than iron.
Jiang Xiu neither advanced nor retreated. He acted even fast3er than Mu Sen and waved his hand at the same time Mu Sen had set out, sending out an energy wave against him. It struck Mu Sen's body, but he was able to endure it. His fist had already reached in front of Jiang Xiu at this moment.
The energy wave had struck his body and split his chest, exposing a decayed wood-like inner section of his body, but his vitals weren't injured. It was at most a light flesh injury.
"It's quite hard."
Jiang Xiu gave his sincere praised to him. The hardest thing on the Immortal Martial Continent was actually Wood. There were quite a few kinds of divine wood which were harder than rocks or metals. There were three types of wood which could be considered as divine objects.
Some wood-type bodies used this hardness to counteract all kinds of sword energies or blade attacks.
This was all under Jiang Xiu's predictions. He wasn't expecting to break Mu Sen's defense with that attack and had merely sent it out to test the strength of the opponent as well as introspect his divine force.
He wasn't a God yet and didn't have a cultivation sword as well, so the power behind the energy wave was pretty low.
"Hahaha. Jiang Luoxia, I had already given you an opportunity, but you didn't savor it. It's too late now…"
Mu Sen was jubilant after seeing that Jiang Xiu wasn't able to break his defense.
His fist had already neared Jiang Xiu.
"Hah!"
Jiang Xiu grunted coldly and pointed his finger towards that fist. Jiang Xiu's most strongest aspect was his physical strength which he still hadn't calculated yet, i.e., brute force.
Using just a single finger to block Mu Sen's fist was enough to shock all the others.
What left them even more stunned was that Mu Sen suddenly started screaming in alarm while Jiang Xiu grinned in response to that.
"That's the price for your ignorance."
"AAAAARRRGGGHHHHH!"
Mu Sen screamed tragically. It wasn't because of the rebound force but rather because his body had ignited all of a sudden. It was as if a tree had caught fire and this fire wasn't a normal one.
"Elder Brother Mu…"
He burned up in a flash and turned into ashes.
"He's dead…"
The famous Mu Sen from the Demigod Ranking had died just like that. Burnt to death with a touch of a finger.
