Out of fear of death, Invest Everything into Health-Chapter 202 - 121: Dao Comprehension: Five Elements of Earth Phenomena

Blade light,

Sword shadows,

shot out fiercely in the collision. The indiscriminate damage flattened the surroundings, and the nearby waterfall had long been severed, with the splashing purple water merging into the rain summoned by the Seven Luminaries Rain Control Skill, resulting in a purple rain.

"You, why don't you dodge!"

The direct clash of blade intent and sword intent. Fan Wubing did not choose to dodge, which left Su Yulong extremely shocked. He originally planned to exchange injury for injury, relying on his stronger body until Fan Wubing's body was crushed.

However, it seemed that Fan Wubing wasn't hurt at all!

He remained standing, no matter how many fiery blade lights slashed at his body; it was as if a breeze blew past, causing no harm whatsoever.

In truth,

Fan Wubing was continuously taking damage. However, his blood bar always remained at just "1 point". He should have died ten times over, but the powerful Nine Nether Divine Phoenix Body, the formidable "My Body Unites with Heaven", endured everything. He even managed to transform the damage taken into increased life force through the "Insatiable Tongue" technique.

He could remain alive, but Cheng Yingwu couldn't.

Cheng Yingwu was a mortal flesh, a body of blood and meat. The Awakening Sword Intent, when released through the Moon-Pointing Sword, while not stronger, could transform into various forms of Sword Qi.

Blood,

Lightning.

No skills, no aesthetics. Fan Wubing just relied on relentless and harsh swings, injecting all the vigor into Cheng Yingwu's body.

Yes, he acknowledged that the inherent path of a Fetus Movement Realm cultivator isn't something that the Nascent Soul Realm could rival.

However, apart from the inherent path itself, the Fetus Movement Realm is merely higher cultivation, greater strength, and a tougher body.

And strength had never been Fan Wubing's concern. As long as he's given enough time, his "Heart Ablaze" could stack infinitely, allowing him to unleash a world-shattering slash with his Nascent Soul body. Why not?

The battle entered Fan Wubing's preferred rhythm.

Surviving the most difficult wave, the enemy can't kill him, yet he is constantly getting stronger.

A tenfold sword, can you withstand it,

a fiftyfold sword, and you still won't die?

Then, a hundredfold sword!

Will you die!

Fan Wubing's eyes burst with golden-red light to the extreme. The Moon-Pointing Sword's blade was covered in irregular, densely packed bulging veins at the peak.

The peach blossoms returned to their position, this sword was called,

Awakening Flash!

All Cheng Yingwu saw was a flash of sword light obscuring the sky, blocking his retreat and sweeping toward him. He wanted to dodge but had nowhere to hide. Before the Sword Qi arrived, the blood within him was already tainted with the sword intent, and the lightning raged, transfiguring blood into electricity.

At this moment, he finally realized that death was only a step away.

Escape,

I have to escape!

This sword will kill me, I have to escape!

But there was no escape.

Because Fan Wubing's control over the battle's rhythm was terrifying. The last moment, he was still evenly matched with Cheng Yingwu, not because he could only be evenly matched, but because he was waiting for that critical moment to deliver a lethal blow.

He knew that he was still under the weight of the gravity cage, and if Cheng Yingwu, as a Fetus Movement Realm cultivator, decided to flee in the current situation, he wouldn't be able to catch up.

Therefore, the fatal strike must be instant, leaving no chances.

"He, he was deliberately restraining himself before!" This was Cheng Yingwu's last thought. Until the Awakening Flash was executed, he realized this. But life and death are ordained by destiny; they don't grant clemency because of your realizations.

So,

The blood-colored lightning consumed Cheng Yingwu, giving him no chance to react.

His meridians, his dantian, his Nascent Soul, his Dao, all turned to nothing under the might of the lightning.

Too fast,

he died too fast!

So much so that Su Yulong, who was assisting from the side, hadn't reacted yet and was left alone facing Fan Wubing. He was completely terrified and could no longer fathom what kind of methods this mere fifteen-year-old boy was capable of. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"Is he... is he really human?"

As a Fetus Movement Realm, yet fearing a Nascent Soul. In every aspect, he no longer possesses the qualifications to battle Fan Wubing.

In terror, he fled madly.

At this moment, he didn't care about things like exposure of the truth or implicating the sect. He only wanted to survive. He didn't want to be shredded to dust by that blood-colored lightning!

Fan Wubing also had no intention to pursue because the time for "My Body Unites with Heaven" had ended. He returned to normalcy, and then the fatigue of his spirit hit him. This time the depletion wasn't as severe as his fight with the Demon Lord, he barely managed to hold on.

He hurriedly moved forward, activated the Swallowing Stars, Chewing Moon technique, and absorbed Cheng Yingwu's life force.

["Insatiable Tongue" activates... Max life force +5,192,312]

[Cultivation Realm breakthrough to: Seventh-Layer Nascent Soul]

The previous slash had ground much of Cheng Yingwu's blood and celestial energy to dust; otherwise, a breakthrough to only the Seventh-Layer Nascent Soul wouldn't have made sense.

But it was enough.

Spars with leaps in realms, not just minor, but significant ones weren't how Fan Wubing could whimsically control. When facing enemies who could suppress strongly, he could preserve the absorbable life force to the maximum extent, but such enemies often wouldn't enhance much even if fully absorbed. Whereas those that could significantly enhance couldn't be controlled precisely.

Everything, like this, has a "balance", it can't be perfect in every way.

However, perhaps increasing life force isn't the key. The key is,
