Chapter 161: Iron Skin
Return to the cave.
Qin Ziling took off his clothes, and his fiery heart completely cooled down.
Looking at the flash of silver light in front of him, and the three-meter-tall Yuan Da standing in front of him with silver light all over his body, Qin Ziling felt a little sad.
Then he closed his eyes and accepted his fate!
Again and again.
I don’t know how much time has passed, but Qin Ziling has become numb from the pain.
With a "crack", it seemed that the sound of an eggshell breaking suddenly sounded in the cave, and also seemed to sound in Qin Ziling's body.
Qin Ziling felt that there was a force that seemed to come from ancient times and was full of wild energy, trying to rush out from a crack that had opened somewhere in his body.
This force was like a torrent, rushing into a place in his body that he didn't know where to go, as if it was a sealed space, constantly crashing and creating huge waves.
Qin Ziling felt as if his whole body was about to be torn apart and washed away by this torrent, and he was in indescribable pain all over.
If someone saw Qin Ziling at this time , they would surely be terrified.
Because at this time, Qin Ziling's muscles were bulging and growing, like hideous tumors all over his body. His whole body was red, and heat was constantly rising from him, making the entire cave like a steamer.
Qin Ziling lay on the ground in pain, curled up, and held on to his consciousness tightly.
"Boom!" Suddenly, a loud noise like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting sounded in his body.
The torrent that seemed to be sealed in his body finally broke through the seal and rushed through his whole body like a rolling torrent.
In a trance, Qin Ziling's soul consciousness seemed to see a giant with muscles wrapped around his body like a dragon, extremely tall and majestic, standing on the ground.
The earth was desolate and vast, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and there were lightning and thunder.
This giant seemed to hold up the entire world!
I don’t know how long it took before the vision in my mind disappeared.
The "torrent" is like all rivers flowing into the sea, and it disappears when it reaches the heart in the chest.
Qin Ziling stood up from the ground. In addition to feeling a surge of strength in his body, he also felt a sense of relaxation all over.
This kind of relaxation is not the kind of relaxation that comes from being light and agile, but rather a feeling as if one has broken through a barrier, or freed from certain shackles, and returned to one's original state.
This is a very mysterious and wonderful feeling.
Qin Ziling stood quietly, savoring this mysterious and wonderful feeling, before he used his spiritual consciousness to look inside his body.
The blood is as pure as if it had been washed.
The blood flows slowly in the body, more steady and powerful than ever before.
Every blood cell contains terrifying vitality and power.
The muscles, bones, and internal organs all feel as if they have been tempered, and are tough and strong.
Especially the heart, every beat is like the beating of a drum, full of shocking power.
Suddenly Qin Ziling's "gaze" fell on the heart and the muscles under the skin of the chest.
There was suddenly a faint pattern there.
The pattern is extremely complex, exuding a sense of wildness, antiquity, and power.
Qin Ziling clearly didn't recognize this pattern, but for some reason, he subconsciously thought it was the word "force".
"What... is this? Why do I think it represents the word 'force' when I clearly don't recognize this pattern?" Qin Ziling's heart was shocked, his face full of horror and confusion.
Soon, Qin Ziling fell into deep thought.
“The strange beasts have the blood of ancient divine beasts and spirit beasts, so they are naturally powerful.
Among all races, humans are born with intelligence, and countless powerful people have appeared in the long history.
There must be a trace of blood from powerful people in ancient times hidden in the bodies of today's human race.
Perhaps it was because I had trained my entire body to the level of iron, breaking the limits of my body and stimulating a trace of ancient blood hidden deep within me.
This is very likely. When the last part was refined, I had a feeling of breaking through seals and shackles, and I seemed to see a towering giant standing between heaven and earth.
Regardless of whether this inference is right or wrong, the sudden changes that occurred in my body when the last part was refined into iron sheet greatly improved my physical condition and made me feel like I was reborn. This is definitely a good thing.
This also shows that my original persistence was right! "
Thinking of this, Qin Ziling decisively put away his thoughts and no longer spent time speculating on the truth that was impossible for him to really find out at this stage.
This doesn't make much sense either.
The real significance is that he is now obviously stronger!
Whether it's strength, control or sensory acuity in all aspects.
"Come on, let me try how powerful I am now!" After Qin Ziling stopped speculating, he looked at Yuan Da, who was emitting silver light, with eyes full of expectation and fighting spirit.
A month ago, after taking the Yin Sha Pearl, Yuan Da broke through to the Silver Corpse Realm.
Later, the other seven coffins gradually condensed Yin Sha Pearls. Qin Ziling gave two more Yin Sha Pearls to Yuan Da. Now the corpse power in Yuan Da's body became more powerful and terrifying, and his body became more tough, as if it were made of gold and iron.
However, it is not easy to break through each stage of the Silver Corpse, and now Yuan Da is still in the low-level Silver Corpse realm.
The same thing happened to Yuan Er, who also took two Yin Sha beads.
The fourth one still remained in the low-level Silver Corpse realm, but later he took three Yin Sha Pearls, and his foundation was stronger than that of Ape Da Yuan and Ape Er, so he was very close to a breakthrough.
However, the higher the level of the zombies, the more stringent the conditions for breaking through.
When it reaches the fourth level, the Yin Sha Qi alone is not enough to allow it to break through, and it also needs to absorb high-quality essence and blood.
As for corpse refining, Qin Ziling learned it by himself because of the old devil Li Mo.
He knew that the Four Heads needed to absorb the essence and blood of a fourth-grade exotic beast in order to have a chance of breaking through. Otherwise, no matter how many Yin Sha Pearls he fed it, the effect would be unsatisfactory.
"call!"
Qin Ziling's iron fist and Yuan Da's silver fist swung through the void almost at the same time.
The sudden burst of power and speed caused violent friction between the fist and the air, causing the surrounding space to fluctuate slightly, and the surface of the iron fist and the silver fist turned red.
"Dang!" The sound of metal colliding rang out in the cave, and sparks flew everywhere.
Qin Ziling took two steps back. His arms and fists felt a little sore and numb, but it was nothing serious. Yuan Da just grinned, and his mountain-like body swayed slightly before stabilizing.
Qin Ziling looked at his fist in disbelief.
You have to know that he is at the Iron Skin level and hasn't even condensed his strength yet, while Yuan Da is equivalent to a great martial artist at the Bone Refining Realm.
Moreover, zombies are generally stronger in physical strength and power than bone-refining masters of the same level, but of course they are much inferior in flexibility.
Yuan Da is a zombie carefully selected by the demon leader Li Mo and raised in a corpse-raising ring. In terms of "root talent", it must be much stronger than ordinary zombies, so among the silver zombies of the same level, its physical strength and power must be stronger.
Now, with his Iron Plate-level cultivation, Qin Ziling fought it head-on with a punch, but he was only slightly at a disadvantage and was not knocked away by the punch.
This means that if the person standing in front of him is just an ordinary great martial artist in the early stage of bone refining, Qin Ziling would be able to fight him on equal terms in a head-on fistfight.
However, once the strength is consumed, it returns very slowly, while the strength of Qi and blood returns quickly.
This also means that if a head-on and protracted war breaks out, Qin Ziling can kill the great martial artist in the early stage of bone refining without using any other means.
Of course, this refers to the most common great martial artist in the early stage of bone refining.
"Come again!" After being pleasantly surprised, Qin Ziling wanted to see how big the gap between him and Yuan Da was in a head-on battle.
"Dang! Dang!" In the cave, a man and a monkey fought with their fists and feet. There was no fancy moves, only real hard fighting.
The collision of huge forces caused the shock wave to cause rocks to fall .
Fortunately, the cave was quite spacious, otherwise the fight between the man and the ape would have collapsed the cave.
Every time, Qin Ziling was beaten back, but he quickly rushed forward again.
But the silver corpse ultimately had the upper hand in strength and physical toughness. Qin Ziling didn't play any tricks on it, and every move he made was real. After fighting for a while, he felt like his whole body was falling apart and he showed signs of exhaustion.
"It seems that a head-on fight can only defeat an ordinary great martial artist in the early stage of bone refining. If I really encounter a great martial artist in the middle stage of bone refining, or a great martial artist who has advanced to the double iron arms like Pang Tianpeng, a head-on fight will definitely not work. I have to consider methods and means." Qin Ziling thought to himself and was about to call a halt.
Suddenly, the ancient and complex pattern under the skin of his chest lit up slightly, and a force slowly flowed out from it, spreading through his limbs and bones...
At this moment, Qin Ziling inexplicably had an additional memory in his mind, a fragmentary memory about the complex pattern.
A strange syllable came out from Qin Ziling's throat.
Qin Ziling didn't know why he could pronounce this strange syllable, but he knew that this syllable meant force.
The pattern suddenly lit up.
"Boom!" Qin Ziling felt a primitive force rushing out from the pattern and pouring into his arms.
"Bang!" There was a loud noise and sparks flew everywhere.
Qin Ziling punched Yuan Da hard again.
The ape's huge body retreated repeatedly, and with a "bang", it hit the wall of the cave behind it heavily.
The cave shook.
“Crash!”
The rubble fell down.
Qin Ziling looked at his fist in disbelief.
The power of this punch actually completely overwhelmed Yuan Da, at least twice or even three times the power of his previous punch.
Without any process of accumulating power, it suddenly burst out with double to triple the power.
If this is done suddenly during a fight, it will definitely catch the opponent off guard, or even seriously injure him with one strike, and he is at the level of a bone-refining great martial artist!
“Come again!”
Soon, Qin Ziling suppressed his shock and punched Yuan Da.
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
The sound of metal clashing continued.
The big ape, who was as big as a mountain, was completely suppressed and beaten.
"Ape Two, come together!"
Qin Ziling also moved Yuan Er out of the corpse-raising ring.
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
Qin Ziling attacked with both hands and fought head-on. He fought alone against two silver corpses of a large ape and was not at a disadvantage at all. He even had the upper hand in strength.
Qin Ziling felt more and more excited as the fight went on, with a great sense of pride rising in his heart.
The Silver Corpse is naturally strong, its body seems to be made of fine iron, it is not afraid of pain, and is best at head-on combat.
But now, he can beat two by himself!
At this moment, Qin Ziling was fully confident that as long as the opponent was not a powerful martial artist in the early stage of bone refining, he could definitely beat the opponent to death with brute force and iron fists.
Just as Qin Ziling was enjoying the fight more and more, and his passion was surging, he suddenly felt weak and powerless, as if his heart was hollowed out.
Suddenly, the passion faded.
