Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 501-Chapter 600)

But every single time, he would stand up immediately, making his way back towards the undefeatable opponent.

The Corpse King’s face became twisted as he gazed at the incoming Li Qingshan like he was looking at a monster.

From the constant clashes, Li Qingshan’s strength grew. Under the tremendous pressure, he gradually forced out the strength of the ox demon.

If he could not be completely destroyed, he could not be defeated.

Gu Yanying noticed how the Corpse King’s arm trembled and how it would only stop after a while. She thought in disbelief, He’s harmed the Corpse King. Probably no one would believe me if I mentioned it.

But then she shook her head. But that’s all. His great strength alone is not enough for him to defeat the Corpse King. The Corpse King has chosen to engage him like this purely because of his dignity as a king. Otherwise, he’ll struggle very much once the Corpse King uses his various techniques and abilities. More importantly, the Corpse King is currently undefeatable. He’s not afraid of wasting time at all.

The specks of green light in the surroundings grew clearer, like an ocean was extending over from the distance. She could already make out blurry figures—monstrous, twisted, colossal, obscure, and all forms of bizarre.

Li Qingshan threw another punch.

Under those gazes, the Corpse King felt deeply humiliated. “Since you want to die so much, I’ll give you what you want!” He opened his huge, withered hand and avoided Li Qingshan’s punch, grabbing Li Qingshan by the wrist with three fingers and wrenching him in.

Li Qingshan had never been able to control this overly great strength in the first place. Both his reactions and skills in battle paled in comparison to the Corpse King.

His punch missed.

Boom! Black shockwaves scattered, shaking up the space there.

At the same time, the other huge, withered hand grabbed Li Qingshan’s head from above.

“It’s over!”

Gu Yanying let out a gloomy sigh. The Hungry Ghost realm was about to descend. The final scene she had caught was indeed fascinating. It had not disappointed her.

In the end, she gazed at Li Qingshan deeply, actually feeling some pity inside.

Originally, we could travel along this path of cultivation together, at least for a while, but I never thought we’d have to bid farewell so soon. Perhaps there is a day when we meet again among sa?sāra.

Right when Gu Yanying wanted to turn around and leave, she suddenly felt something was amiss. Despite facing imminent death, the corner of Li Qingshan’s lips curled slightly, and he let out a gentle sigh.



A huge, half-transparent white sword rose up from behind him, plunging into the Corpse King’s hand and penetrating all the way through.

The blade of the sword suddenly turned into white flames, worming into the wound furiously.

When he fought a battle to the death, how could she not be present?

Xiao An had refined the Corpse King’s ten fingernails and healed her wounds before secretly making her way over underground, all for this opportunity. She channeled the Samādhi Flames of White Bone into the Corpse King’s body.

Their teamwork required no words. They completely understood each other tacitly.

An extremely-terrifying sensation of coldness sank into the Corpse King’s heart. As he gathered his corpse qi, he was only able to suppress the Samādhi Flames of White Bone, but not extinguish it. The white flames slowly spread from the centre of his palm. He swung his hand hard.

Boom!

His palm exploded, and a huge, gaping hole appeared. Only then did he manage to purge the Samādhi Flames of White Bone.

How could Li Qingshan let such a great opportunity slip by? The burning phoenix wings spread out, reaching almost three hundred meters in length. The vague cry of a phoenix could be heard as he rose into the air, hurling both fists at the Corpse King’s chest.

The series of dazzling, eye-catching attacks were simply to hide the true killing strike.

Below him, the Buddha Slaying sword embryo spat out another streak of light thirty meters long, swinging from left to right quietly, right towards the Corpse King’s waist.

However, the Corpse King understood extremely well where the true threat lay. He raised his arm and swung it hard. Corpse qi turned into a huge wave and sent Xiao An flying. Only then did he free up a hand to stop Li Qingshan.

Although Xiao An had charged over immediately, a vigilant Corpse King would not fall for a trick like that so easily again. Meanwhile, the last smear of azure in the depths of the horizon was gradually being devoured by pale-white.

It was over. Even if Li Qingshan and Xiao An worked together, they were unable to defeat a serious Corpse King, let alone in such a short amount of time.

Li Qingshan was confident he could crush this bastard single-handedly if the tiger demon and spirit turtle both reached the fifth layer, but time waited for no one.

Gu Yanying glanced past their battle and let out a gentle interjection of surprise. Li Qingshan’s punch that had missed left behind a thin, black crack in space. She called out, “Strike the space around him!”

“Your highness, prepare to take action!” Gu Yanying shot through the air towards the Corpse King. She held an almost-transparent feather between her fingers. Little bro Qingshan, I’ll gamble with you this time!





Chapter 552: Shatter | Legend of the Great Sage




That was what Gu Yanying thought inside before seeing Li Qingshan punching the space in front of him viciously without any hesitation as soon as he realised what she said. Striking the enemy was extremely difficult, but how easy would it be to miss?

Even if he struck the Corpse King, it could not cause any lethal damage, so he might as well as see just what fantastic plan this bird woman had in mind!

I think I shattered something?

Li Qingshan could vaguely make out a shattering sound.

The sound was extremely gentle, like the hum of a mosquito. However, if he settled down and listened closely, it was like the sky had collapsed, enough to shake his soul.

The invisible space was like a transparent, glass container. Black cracks criss-crossed and littered the space like lightning. They were as fleeting as lightning, closing up and vanishing.

The Corpse King’s huge withered hand, enveloped in rolling corpse qi, swept through the air like a black cloud before looming over it. It was completely unaffected by the shockwave.

It seems useless!

As Li Qingshan thought of that, a piece was suddenly cut away from the “black cloud” above his head. The cut was so smooth and straight that it seemed like someone had carried it out with a ruler.

Silently, three pillar-like fingers were cut off, falling out of the sky.

Li Qingshan moved out of the way, avoiding the fingers, only to see the cuts were smooth and neat, surpassing anything that any weapon could achieve. It also left him stumped. What is going on?

When he gazed at the sky closely, he discovered that while the cracks the shockwave created had vanished, a long, slender trajectory remained.

Due to being overly thin, he was unable to notice it if he were not paying attention. It was probably even thinner than a hair on the Corpse King, if he had hair.

The black thread was not a regular pitch-black or inky-black. Instead, it could not be described with words. It seemed to suck away all light. Simply by looking at it, it felt like his field of vision had been carved up.

It was like a rip in a canvas. Everything painted on the canvas would split apart with the rip, no matter what it depicted, whether it was powerful or weak, as the very object that contained their existence had split open.

Don’t tell me… this is the shattering of space!? His punch can actually shatter space!

The Corpse General who always had a card up his sleeve, who always had the situation within the palm of his hand despite all the unexpected accidents, finally showed a sliver of fear.
