Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 26: Chopping Melons and Vegetables! The Fierce Taoist Priest Who Tears Apart Evil Spirits by Hand!_1
A ferocious ghost clung to Fan Wu’s shoulder, its mouth full of sharp fangs about to swallow Fan Wu’s entire head!
Its violent eyes lacked any hint of rational emotion; it simply wanted to tear Fan Wu to pieces.
However, just as it was about to bite down, a hand as large as a palm fan pressed against its head.
In front of this hand, the ghost’s massive head was nothing more than an oversized toy.
Even though the hand was just an ordinary flesh hand, devoid of mana.
It tightly clamped the ghost’s skull!
Preventing the wide-mouthed ghost from advancing any further.
Fan Wu’s arm muscles tensed, and veins as thick as pythons twisted around his arms.
The grotesque expression on the ghost’s face suddenly revealed a hint of pain!
As Fan Wu’s hand continued to exert force, his five fingers violently pierced through the ghost’s soul body. The first joint of each finger sank entirely into the ghost’s head!
In this manner, Fan Wu forcefully yanked it off his shoulder.
His arm flexed again!
With a squelch—
The ghost’s head deflated like a punctured ball, emitting an unbearable cry of agony. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
The next moment, Fan Wu casually tossed it, and the entire ghost smashed into the wall of the Ghost Inn, its soul body almost shattering on impact!
Fan Wu’s other hand was not idle either; with one stroke, he pierced through another ghost!
In an instant, it dissipated into nothingness!
Now wielding the sword with both hands, Fan Wu strode forward and slashed, severing the bodies of several ghosts at the waist.
One ghost, perhaps because it had more blood, received another stab from Fan Wu before it could fall to the ground.
Granting it a first-hand experience of total annihilation!
Fan Wu found the right moment to throw his Demon-slaying Sword with the finesse of a trump card. The blade instantly pierced through five ghosts, reducing them to ash in a blink.
Even without the Demon-slaying Sword in hand, he was far from an easy target to manipulate, still overwhelmingly strong!
With one hand, Fan Wu grabbed a ghost by one shoulder, and with the other hand, he clasped the opposite shoulder.
His arms’ muscles bulged, threatening to burst the inner lining of his clothes!
Pieces of fabric flew in every direction!
Revealing the exaggerated muscles of his upper body!
Ignoring his bare upper body, Fan Wu looked at the ghost struggling in his grasp with a smug grin and suddenly exerted force in his arms.
The ghost let out a shrill scream!
And was torn in half!
...
"Is he... really human?" This was the scene that left Xie Jiu in utter disbelief within the short span he had observed.
He had never seen anyone slash through a horde of fiercely evil ghosts as if they were mere vegetables.
He had also never seen someone tear a ghost in half with their bare hands!
What kind of monstrous physical power was required?
Could this Fan Wu, the Taoist priest from Qiulong Temple, be a demon in human skin instead?
In Xie Jiu’s mind, only an Evil God with the power to devour humans could possess such terrifying strength, right?
Could a person truly achieve such intensity?
Moreover, the muscles on Fan Wu’s body, sculpted as if by a master artist, were something Xie Jiu had never seen. Such muscles appeared more like the works of a master sculptor than something that could be developed through human training.
It didn’t seem possible to achieve through human means!
"Too brutal!!"
After being stunned for a good while, Xie Jiu had a thousand words racing in his mind, but he didn’t know how to articulate them.
In the end, he could only utter these four words.
Xie Jiu was even more shocked to discover... that virtually no ghosts remained inside the vast Ghost Inn.
He hadn’t counted precisely how many ghosts there were in the inn.
But he guessed there must have been several dozen, right?
Were dozens of ghosts about to be wiped out just like that? And during all this, Xie Jiu felt like he hadn’t exerted much effort at all.
Or rather, there wasn’t even time to exert any effort...
Ah, damn it!
...
At the same time, Fan Wu only felt his entire body’s muscles and bones were fully activated.
He could feel his blood boiling inside him!
Those violent genes were filling every inch of his skin!
And every drop of his blood!
His entire body was surrounded by a faint mist, distorting his figure and making him look more like a demon than the evil spirits did!
Fan Wu had already yanked the Demon-slaying Sword from the wall, and with a casual slap, sent an evil spirit that didn’t fear death again flying.
With the Demon-slaying Sword resting on his shoulder, his eyes were fixed on the dark shadows ahead.
When he was fighting the evil spirits.
It seemed that this thing hadn’t made a move, nor had it attempted any sneaky attacks from the shadows.
Could it be that monsters are more honorable in combat than humans?
Just as this thought crossed his mind, the remaining few surviving evil spirits in the inn shivered in unison.
The manic and violent expression quickly faded from the faces of the few survivors.
And in its place was sheer terror and panic!
Scared out of their wits, they tried to flee outside, but the doors and windows of the inn seemed to be sealed shut by a force, leaving the evil spirits to scurry about in panic like headless flies.
This stark contrast made Fan Wu thoughtful.
He clearly remembered that these guys were very fearless before.
Suddenly!
A sense of crisis struck him!
Fan Wu dodged to the side, as a black shadow turned into a spike that nearly grazed his skin as it flew by!
Even a few inches away, Fan Wu still felt like someone had placed a block of ice on his skin.
That indicated the chilling Yin Energy emitted by the opponent was already bone-chillingly cold as ice!
The mysterious shadow had made its move!
Fan Wu understood.
"So that’s it... the ability to control these evil spirits seems to have certain limitations. For example, are you unable to attack while controlling them? Or unable to move? That’s why you didn’t ambush me?"
"Now, that these last few evil spirits have become so cowardly, it must be because they have broken free from its control."
Fan Wu swung his sword, but the shadow seemed to know that the sword in his hand was special and immediately retreated.
Leaving his strike to cut through empty air.
"Fan Fellow Daoist, be careful! This monster has the power of incense offerings! It must have pretended to be a local deity, deceiving the common folk into worshiping and making offerings to it. Such a monster is no longer a mere monster, it must be a wild Evil God!"
Xie Jiu urgently warned, "Some extremely yang and potent magic artifacts or spells are ineffective against monsters with the power of incense offerings. Such creatures can even move about in broad daylight!"
"To confront such a ferocious monster, we must..."
"Ah?!!"
Before Xie Jiu could finish speaking, he suddenly noticed a dramatic change in the aura of Fan Wu before him!
This change...
Made Xie Jiu’s heart quiver!
What on earth was happening? Had Fellow Daoist Fan been holding back before?
No...
That couldn’t be possible, could it?
But what was unfolding before his eyes couldn’t be deceiving him.
He could clearly feel the aura emanating from Fan Wu, and the energy swirling around him...
Was even more terrifying than before!
Xie Jiu was so unnerved that he felt as though he was staring at the back of a monstrous human-shaped demon!
"Hiss!!!"
...
