Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 176 - 80: Underwater Battle, Divine Skills with a Snap of the Fingers_2

One breath later.

"Where did this monstrous beast come from?!" He shouted and took a deep breath in an instant.

With a splash—

Liu Qingsong dove headfirst into the water.

Upon entering the water, he immediately saw the lake water churning as if an angry dragon was roaring.

He also saw the water dyed red with blood and spotted Wang Jiu and Wusheng wrapped up by a long blood-colored snake, speeding toward the bottom of the lake and into deeper waters.

Seeing such a phenomenon, Liu Qingsong instantly thought of the changes over the years and the rumors that circulated privately.

"Could this be a demon bred in the Luoshui River?" Liu Qingsong wondered in his heart.

But at this moment, the movement ahead left him no time to think; he saw the figures of Wang Jiu and Wusheng sinking rapidly.

Immediately,

"How dare you attack people from Medicine King Valley!" Liu Qingsong bellowed, his voice exploding like thunder under the water.

Even the surging water couldn't stop the thunderous sound of his voice from spreading.

He then quickly dived, chasing after Wang Jiu and Wusheng as they disappeared into the depths.

On the other side,

Jiang Ning noticed the commotion behind him.

"Good thing you came; I was afraid you wouldn't!"

"In the water, this is now my home ground," he whispered to himself.

Then, grabbing Wang Jiu and Wusheng, he dived quickly toward deeper parts of the Luoshui.

At this time, those two were clearly showing more exhalations than inhalations.

During his surprise attack just moments before, these two had almost no time to defend themselves and were easily inflicted with severe injuries by him.

Had it not been to allure Liu Qingsong, Jiang Ning could have easily killed Wang Jiu and Wusheng the moment they fell into the water.

Both being at the Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm.

And with the advantage of favorable timing and location, and a foundation far deeper than the two combined with the advantage of a spiritual weapon,

this feat was extremely simple.

Yet, Jiang Ning also knew that if the two were completely dead and their breaths ceased,

Liu Qingsong might notice their condition upon entering the water.

Once Liu Qingsong noticed, there would be no reason for him to be lured deeper into the Luoshui.

Liu Qingsong must not remain.

After hearing the conversation of the three just now, Jiang Ning had made this decision in his heart.

Because Liu Qingsong had already tracked down to him.

Under such circumstances, once they investigated, they would surely discover the Leopard Embryo Shaping Body Pill that he had just refined inside his body.

If this pill was found, that would truly be troublesome.

This trouble comes not only from Medicine King Valley but also from Prince Huaian.

Since those three Leopard Embryo Shaping Body Pills were tribute items that Medicine King Valley was supposed to offer to Prince Huaian.

Being found in possession of tribute items was a charge he could not currently afford.

So just now, Jiang Ning had already resolved to make sure Liu Qingsong perished here.

This man could not be allowed to remain.

...

Liu Qingsong frantically pursued the two figures wrapped by the blood-colored snake, feeling extremely anxious in his heart.

Originally, capturing Tian Buyi was meant to be an act of making amends for past misdeeds.

Now that Tian Buyi hadn't been captured, and the Leopard Embryo Shaping Body Pills had not been retrieved, it was truly a disgrace to Medicine King Valley.

In such a situation, if, under his leadership, two core members of the valley were lost,

those two Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm Sect disciples, Wang Jiu and Wusheng, he would surely be punished upon returning.

At the Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm, each individual was a critical pillar for the Sect.

The lives of these two were no less significant than a Leopard Embryo Shaping Body Pill.

At this time,

As Liu Qingsong went deeper into the Luoshui, his anxiety grew.

The longer the time dragged on, the less likely it was to save Wang Jiu and Wusheng's lives.

"Quicker!" Liu Qingsong said to himself as he saw the distance to the blood-colored snake slowly closing ahead.

At the same time, he felt a secret thrill.

This blood-colored snake, able to easily sweep away two Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm individuals like Wang Jiu and Wusheng,

was surely considered a demon in Liu Qingsong's eyes.

Such demons, to a Martial Arts practitioner, were treasures from head to toe.

Consuming it would greatly enhance their own power.

"Perhaps this is also my chance; whether I can advance further, even touching the threshold of the Martial Arts Sixth Grade, depends on this blood-colored snake."

As Liu Qingsong vigorously pursued, his heart was filled with excitement.

However, what he did not know was that this so-called blood-colored snake

was formed by Jiang Ning manipulating his Water Control Divine Ability, shaping the blood flowing from Wang Jiu and Wusheng's bodies into a snake.

And he, along with Wang Jiu and Wusheng, were in a place that Liu Qingsong couldn't see.

...

One was fleeing, the other pursuing.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of breaths had passed.

At this moment,

Liu Qingsong had dived hundreds of meters deep into the water.

The very next moment,

Liu Qingsong reached out and grasped Wang Jiu and Wusheng with his hand.

"Are they dead?"

His hands had only just touched their bodies when he instantly made this judgment.

It was at this time.

Hum—

Suddenly, a dragon's hum resounded from within the blood-red serpent.

At the same time, a slash of sword light flashed by, instantly splitting the blood-red serpent, clearly imprinting itself in Liu Qingsong's pupils.

At this moment, Liu Qingsong's pupils severely contracted, his eyes filled with immense shock.

Because he saw the face of the person behind the flash of sword light.

It was Jiang Ning.

At the same time, he also felt himself enveloped by the Sword Force, and even sensed the extreme threat this slash posed to him.

This threat even made him smell the scent of death.

"How is this possible!!!"

Looking at Jiang Ning in front of him, his heart was immensely shocked.

Meanwhile,

Jiang Ning had already unleashed all his techniques.

This slash was also the most powerful one he had unleashed to date.

And with the assistance of the water's flow, this slash had the effect of pushing the waves and aiding the power in the water.

At the same time,

Liu Qingsong quickly recovered after a brief shock.

Seeing the sword light that was nearly upon him, his face immediately showed a serious expression.

He knew he could not avoid this slash.

Not to mention the Sword Force, just in the water, he was unable to make the free and agile movements he could on land.

In an instant,

Liu Qingsong had already made his decision.

That was to use his famous Martial Arts technique, the Flicking Divine Skill.

Immediately,

He flicked his finger, and a steel pellet shot out from his index finger.

Pfft—

The steel pellet launched, creating a continuously expanding arc in the water.

Liu Qingsong's figure also began to retreat, trying to distance himself from Jiang Ning.

As much as he had wanted to approach the blood-red serpent earlier, now he wanted just as much to get away.

The next moment.

Clang—

The blade collided with the steel pellet, emitting a loud sound in the water.

Jiang Ning also suddenly felt a terrifying force hit his blade.

The powerful force made Jiang Ning's hands feel slightly numb.

"What terrifying explosive power!" he thought in shock.

But at the same time, the sword light in his hand did not stop, continuing to charge towards Liu Qingsong.

Because the steel pellet flicked by Liu Qingsong had only blocked his blade for a moment before being split into two by the incredibly sharp blade.

"Go—" Liu Qingsong let out a soft shout, flicking another steel pellet.

"Go—"

"Go—"

Three steel pellets flicked out in succession.

Instantly creating a small empty area in front of him.

Martial Arts Seventh Grade, refine the human body's Great Tendons.

At this level, simply raising a hand or a foot, without needing any force techniques, one could burst forth with power from the whole body.

All other force techniques, in front of a warrior of this level, seemed like child's play.

If one reaches Complete Great Success at Seventh Grade,

Power and energy as one wishes, the power of the whole body, can be instantly transferred from one point to another.

It can also burst forth with all the body's power from any point.

At this stage, even a light point of a finger can gather the whole body's power to burst forth, possessing terrifying explosive power, and can easily penetrate through solid iron.

That's why, at this moment, just the steel pellets Liu Qingsong was flicking out were so terrifying.

In the eyes of Jiang Ning, it was no less powerful than the primitive bullets being fired.

At the same time, Liu Qingsong continued to retreat back.
