No hope for eternal life

Chapter 339 Battle with Cui Li

"Take my punch first." Mu Changsheng replied, activating the Five Thunders and punching You Liancheng.

Seeing this, You Liancheng did not dodge or evade, but struck Mu Changsheng's fist with a palm, knocking Mu Changsheng away. He himself stood in place, as steady as a rock.

The difference in power between the two was immediately apparent.

Mu Changsheng's heart sank, he knew that he had to self-destruct the Thunder God Fruit, otherwise there would be no possibility of defeating You Liancheng.

Mu Changsheng was also a man who made decisions quickly. Without hesitation, a Thunder God Fruit exploded inside his body. The violent power of thunder traveled around his body, bringing him unimaginable pain, but also tremendous power.

The next moment, Mu Changsheng rushed towards Youliancheng as fast as lightning. The improvement brought by the self-explosion of the power of Thunder God was all-round, and his speed was now not inferior to Youliancheng.

"Come on." You Liancheng shouted and went to meet Mu Changsheng. He had known for a long time that there was such a move in the Five Thunders Body Tempering Secret Technique, and had been waiting for Mu Changsheng to use it.

You Liancheng knew that as long as he could hold on through the time when Mu Changsheng self-destructed the Thunder God Fruit, he would win, otherwise he would lose.

Therefore, Mu Changsheng and You Liancheng returned to the most primitive fighting method of body-cultivating cultivators, punching and kicking each other, trying to see who would give up first.

But what You Liancheng didn't know was that Mu Changsheng had a purification talisman that could quickly heal his injuries, so this competition was "unfair" from the beginning.

As time passed, You Liancheng's injuries continued to accumulate and were already serious, but Mu Changsheng became more and more courageous and did not look like he was injured at all.

"Oops." You Liancheng thought to himself that it was not good. He chose to fight head-on because he was at a higher level of physical training and could resist more than Mu Changsheng. But You Liancheng could see that Mu Changsheng clearly had a way to heal his wounds. If he continued to fight like this, it would only be more disadvantageous to him.

Therefore, You Liancheng turned around and fled. He planned to change his strategy and waste time with Mu Changsheng and fight a protracted war.

But Mu Changsheng had finally gained the advantage, so naturally he would not let You Liancheng escape.

"God-Slaying Formation, trap." Mu Changsheng immediately manipulated the God-Slaying Formation again and used all of its power to suppress You Liancheng's speed.

After self-destructing the Thunder God Fruit, Mu Changsheng's speed was no slower than You Liancheng's. However, You Liancheng's speed was suppressed by the God-Slaying Formation. As a result, Mu Changsheng quickly caught up with You Liancheng and started fighting with him, leaving You Liancheng no time to escape.

You Liancheng had already used up all his trump cards, and the outcome was decided. After a cup of tea, the injuries that had accumulated for a long time in You Liancheng's body broke out, and he was seriously injured and defeated.

Mu Changsheng wins!

"Brother Mu is more skilled. I accept defeat sincerely." You Liancheng said with a fist clasped, saying that he was truly convinced.

Mu Changsheng also clasped his fists in return and said, "I am truly ashamed that I took advantage of the illusion competition."

In order to deal with You Liancheng, Mu Changsheng self-destructed two of the five Thunder God Dao Fruits. If it were in reality, he would not be willing to self-destruct any of them, because in order to cultivate a Thunder God of the perfect state, it would cost at least tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones, not to mention the time cost.

"Hahaha, if I lose, I lose. Brother Mu, you don't need to help me make excuses." You Liancheng said very casually.

On the other side, the competition between You Huanyu and Cui Li had already ended, and Cui Li unfortunately lost.

Although Mu Changsheng's white-clothed clone was busy competing with You Liancheng, he also arranged for his black-clothed clone to help watch the battle, so he had a deep understanding of the methods of You Huanyu and the other two.

Afterwards, another round of competition began. Mu Changsheng's opponent was Cui Li, and You Huanyu's opponent was You Liancheng.

This arrangement is very interesting. If Mu Changsheng can defeat Cui Li, Mu Changsheng will compete with You Huanyu for the final first place. If Mu Changsheng cannot defeat Cui Li, You Huanyu is likely to lock in the first place in advance.

The competition officially began. Cui Li held the sword and clasped his fists, saying, "Junior Brother Mu, please!"

"Senior Brother Cui, please." Mu Changsheng also clasped his fists in return.

After saying that, Mu Changsheng took the initiative to attack. He already knew Cui Li's fighting style and had a way to deal with Cui Li in his mind.

On the other side, Cui Li retreated in a ethereal manner. He also used his clone to watch Mu Changsheng's competition. He knew Mu Changsheng's trump card very well, so he was unwilling to fight Mu Changsheng in close combat, knowing that it would be extremely disadvantageous to him.

Cui Li ranked second in the second round of speed competition. Although he was slightly inferior to You Liancheng, his speed was still far beyond the reach of Mu Changsheng in his normal state.

In addition, while Cui Li was dodging Mu Changsheng, he kept swinging the sword in his hand, and sharp sword energy attacked Mu Changsheng.

Seeing this, Mu Changsheng used the sixth-grade intermediate level God-Slaying Formation for defense. Seeing that he could not catch up with Cui Li, he simply gave up and instead used the Immortal-Slaying Sword and the Immortal-Slaying Sword in the God-Slaying Formation to chase and kill Cui Li.

At the same time, Mu Changsheng used the secret technique of Five Thunders to strengthen himself, swung out punches, and besieged Cui Li together with the Zhu Xian swords.

Cui Li relied on his speed to move around while constantly swinging his sword to attack Mu Changsheng and the God-Slaying Formation. It seemed that he had made up his mind to engage in a war of attrition with Mu Changsheng.

Seeing this, Mu Changsheng had an idea and came up with a plan. He continued to swing his fists to attack Cui Li, but every time he swung his fists, he would add something extra to the fists.

But Cui Li's perception was extremely sharp and he soon realized something was wrong. He noticed that every time Mu Changsheng's fist mark dissipated, something would be left behind.

Cui Li followed the traces left by the fist and soon understood Mu Changsheng's intention: "He wants to set up a chain formation to trap me."

The reason why Cui Li thought of this so quickly was because You Liancheng had used this trick to deal with Mu Changsheng before, and Mu Changsheng was learning and applying it right away.

Seeing Cui Li destroy his formation traces, Mu Changsheng thought to himself: "Is he discovered? It seems that I am still not skilled enough."

Just as Cui Li thought, Mu Changsheng wanted to learn from You Liancheng how to set up the formation on the spot. As long as he could trap Cui Li, the overall situation would be settled.

However, this was the first time that Mu Changsheng set up this kind of chain formation, so it was normal for Cui Li to discover the clues.

However, even though he was discovered, Mu Changsheng continued to punch and set up the formation calmly. This was an open conspiracy. If Cui Li wanted to destroy his formation, he would have to stop and parry the attacks of the two swords of Zhu Xian at the same time. If Cui Li did not destroy his formation, he could only watch the chain formation being completed.

Cui Li naturally would not let Mu Changsheng set up the formation. He immediately stood still, with cold air on his fingertips. He used his fingers to control the sword in the air and attacked Mu Changsheng, and easily dealt with the punch from Mu Changsheng.

"Here it comes." Mu Changsheng's heart was filled with alarm, knowing that Cui Li was serious about it. During the third round of competition, Cui Li relied on this trick to continuously repel the Obsidian Spirit Puppet, and even the eighth-level Obsidian Spirit Puppet could be repelled.

Mu Changsheng clenched lightning in his fist and punched out with all his strength, trying to repel Cui Li's flying sword, but was easily torn apart by the flying sword.

In the end, Mu Changsheng still relied on the God-Slaying Formation outside of his body to block the sword.

However, Cui Li's killing move was not over yet. After the flying sword was bounced away by the God-Slaying Formation, it turned back again, and its power was nearly twice as strong, breaking Mu Changsheng's God-Slaying Formation.

The secret of Cui Li's move is that the flying sword can continuously accumulate power, with each sword being stronger than the last, and there will always be a time when it cannot be blocked.

Mu Changsheng's eyes became serious. He didn't dare to let Cui Li continue to accumulate power. He immediately used a virtual god talisman of the peak tribulation level to repel the flying sword and attacked Cui Li directly. To capture a thief, one must first capture the leader. As long as he could defeat Cui Li, he would naturally no longer have to worry about Cui Li's flying sword continuing to accumulate power.
