Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO-Chapter 718 - The Power of a Severed Finger

Chapter 718: Chapter 718: The Power of a Severed Finger Chapter 718: Chapter 718: The Power of a Severed Finger The body cultivation secret method is in another league yet on par with the Golden Body, with both being strong physique-refining techniques.

If Li Xiaoyao can cultivate the body cultivation secret method to its peak, the strength he possesses will not be inferior to the Golden Body, certainly not by far.

“I haven’t tried the close-combat martial arts of this body yet. I’ll use you to test it,” he said. These were the martial arts that accompanied the body cultivation secret method, mostly used for hand-to-hand combat. As for the specific grade of these martial arts, Li Xiaoyao was uncertain, but what he could be sure of was that these close-combat techniques would certainly not be lackluster.

“Kid, let me show you the power of a cultivator at the peak of the Spirit Condensation Realm!” Long Zaitian’s voice brimmed with supreme confidence. His robust body moved like a tank, yet his speed was no less impressive as he bore down on Li Xiaoyao.

Li Xiaoyao’s gaze lifted slightly with a cold smile playing upon his lips. When the distance between them was about three meters, Li Xiaoyao suddenly moved.

He stomped his foot on the ground fiercely, and his body turned at an extremely bizarre angle, morphing into a series of afterimages as he charged towards Long Zaitian in a curve.

“Swoosh!”

...

The fierce wind caused by the terrifying speed made the space around them flutter like thin paper, threatening to tear at any moment.

Long Zaitian’s eyelids twitched as he witnessed the rapidly enlarging figure in his pupils, a shock went through his heart: “How can this kid’s speed be so terrifying?”

In the world of martial arts, speed is unrivaled!

Even a drop of water, if it falls fast enough to break the limit, can instantly pierce through solid rock.

Similarly, if one’s speed reaches an extreme, even when facing a cultivator whose cultivation level is several times higher, it does not necessarily mean there is no chance of fighting back.

The Li Xiaoyao of the past, with Golden Body enhancement, possessed unbelievable speed beyond common comprehension. He just needed to push his speed to the limit to easily kill cultivators stronger than him.

But there was a downside to it; such attacks, at full strength, could only be used once, consuming a lot of physical energy and making it extremely easy to injure oneself.

The clan members and a few elders outside the Council Hall watched the two collide instantly, hearts racing to their throats.

Some clan members cheered: “In a physical cultivation level showdown, ten Li Xiaoyaos are no match for the Clan Leader.”

“But… I heard that Li Xiaoyao once overpowered the elders of the Hehuan Sect, the Luo Family, and our Long Family within the Human Realm.”

At this remark, the atmosphere suddenly grew quieter.

“Nonsense, in the Human Realm, Li Xiaoyao didn’t even dare to show his face; he used bombs and despicable sneak attacks.”

“Right, that’s it.”

A group of people echoed in agreement.

“Boom!”

Amid the discussions, their fists had already collided.

At the moment of contact, the ferocious look on Long Zaitian’s face instantly turned to shock!

“How can this power be so immense?” The thought barely formed in his mind when Long Zaitian almost could see the muscles in his own arm twitching violently under the force of impact, the veins bursting and blood spurting out.

All this happened in an instant, practically in the blink of an eye. By the time the crowd heard the sound of fists striking, Long Zaitian’s body had already been sent flying into the air, tracing a beautiful arc before crashing down heavily.

“What!”

The clanspeople were stunned, while the elders on the platform widened their eyes.

Could it be that the Clan Leader, a peak Spirit Condensation Realm cultivator, was defeated by Li Xiaoyao in a single move?

This Li Xiaoyao, his strength is freakishly powerful, isn’t it?

Who would believe it if they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes?

“Pfft!”

Long Zaitian spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and immediately scrambled up from the ground.

That punch had indeed caused him no light injuries, but in the final moments, he managed to swiftly retract his force backwards; otherwise, Li Xiaoyao’s all-out punch just now would have been enough to kill him.

Long Zaitian tremendously regretted his actions in his heart. If he had known earlier that this youngster’s physical cultivation level was so terrifying, he would have never actively provoked him.

Looking back, the goading tactic he so arrogantly adopted was simply idiotic behavior.

He took out a bunch of low-grade pill medicine and swallowed them, which only then made him feel slightly better.

“Kid, I indeed underestimated you,” Long Zaitian said as the blood on his body stopped flowing and his injuries began healing at a slow rate, though his overall strength had dropped by at least thirty percent.

Li Xiaoyao looked up, and seeing that he was still able to stand up and challenge him, he was clearly surprised. With a cold sneer, he said, “Now I want to see how many punches you can take from me without dying!”

With those words, Li Xiaoyao moved with swiftness accompanied by continuous thunderous roars. His speed was so fast that the onlookers could only see the afterimages he left in mid-air.

Long Zaitian, not daring to clash directly with him again, grabbed his broad knife and slashed down at the attacking Li Xiaoyao.

Li Xiaoyao deftly dodged the knife, displaying his nimble footwork to perfection.

The blade lifted, and the bare steel traced a white mark through the air, aiming for Li Xiaoyao.

Li Xiaoyao didn’t dodge this time but, under the bewildered gaze of the crowd, he extended a single finger.

He was actually intending to meet Long Zaitian’s knife edge head-on with just one finger.

Even if Long Zaitian had overestimated Li Xiaoyao, upon seeing his movement, he was infuriated.

“Li Xiaoyao, don’t be too arrogant!” he roared furiously, the knife blade thrusting instantly towards Li Xiaoyao’s heart.

“Clang!”

The onlookers only saw Li Xiaoyao’s finger tap the blade, producing a clear sound, yet his body didn’t move an inch. The finger was as hard as a divine stone; not even Long Zaitian’s weapon could shake it.

This was the first time Li Xiaoyao had used the Emperor of Humanity’s Severing Finger to directly attack, and its strength was beyond his expectations.

From the contact with the blade, only a minor reverberation returned to his fingertip; beyond that, Li Xiaoyao felt not the slightest discomfort.

“How can this be?” murmured Long Zaitian, Li Xiaoyao’s power making him doubt his life choices.

Without hesitation, Li Xiaoyao’s finger moved once more towards Long Zaitian.

Feeling the imminent threat, Long Zaitian grabbed the knife handle with his right hand and the knife’s edge with his left, blocking in front of him.

“Clang!”

“Crack!”

That finger penetrated directly through the blade. The terrifying force exerted on the knife made Long Zaitian feel as if the sky had collapsed at that moment; the ground beneath his feet cracked open, and half of his body was buried in the earth by the impact.

The onlookers were dumbfounded, and the scene became eerily and unpredictably silent.

The Elders trembled, disbelieving.

Li Xiaoyao raised his hand, intending to kill Long Zaitian, but at that moment, an immense and boundless presence suddenly erupted from somewhere within the Long Family.

“Huh? This presence~” Li Xiaoyao withdrew his hand, looking towards the source of that aura with narrowed eyes, a hint of surprise in his dark pupils, “The aura is unstable and insubstantial, is he about to break through?”
