I Can Capture Attacks-Chapter 16 - : It Burns
Chapter 16: Chapter 16: It Burns
"I've been waiting for you." said an old man while sitting on a rock beside Zixin's cave entrance. Zixin didn't know who this old man was nor did he care. He wasn't in a good mood and didn't want to interact with anyone so he just ignored the old man, walking past him like he wasn't there. The old man didn't like Zixin's complete disregard for him and grabbed his shoulder from behind.
"Boy, I'm talking to you, are you deaf or something." said the old man while exerting force on his grip, he was likely trying to crush Zixin's shoulder but things didn't go as planned.
'Such a strong and steady body! How did he achieve such physical prowess?!' thought the old man.
"Don't touch me with your filthy hands! If you grab me again, you'll regret it!" said Zixin.
[HMPH!] snorted the old man while releasing some Soul Power. The great pressure landed on Zixin's body, trying to suppress him and make him kneel but Zixin just ignored the old man and continued to walk away.
[BOY, DON'T WALK AWAY FROM ME!] he examined while increasing his Soul Power and even a wisp of his aura. Zixin stopped walking and turned around slowly, still unfazed by the old man's show of strength. His expression was cold and enraged, making the old man hesitate whether to continue with his shenanigans or stop.
"Old man, are you bullying me?" asked Zixin while staring the old man dead in the eyes. The old man was initially unsure of how to respond but Zixin's tone pissed him off. He was a Sect Elder, garnering respect from all sect disciples, never had someone spoken to him in such a manner, this made the old man to respond in a rude manner.
[And what if I am? What can you do about it? In my eyes, you're no different from an ant so I can bully you whenever I want!] said the old man.
Zixin then dashed towards the old man at incredible speed but in the old man's eyes, Zixin was moving in slow motion, afterall, the old man was at the Soul Transformation Realm, an Infant Soul Stage master, he could rase cities to the ground with just a wave of his hand, Zixin absolutely wasn't his match.
Because of such a huge disparity in strength, the old man dropped his guard and was more curious about what Zixin was going to do to him, he was just a Body Cultivator and apart from physical strength, he had nothing in his arsenal.
'Release a thousand Burning Flesh attacks!' thought Zixin.
[Releasing ×1000 Burning Flesh attacks ob target.] responded the system.

The old man first felt a stinging pain before the scalding and agonising pain assaulted him. He felt like he was inside a furnace or a larva pool due to the intense burning pain he was experiencing.
[It burns! It burns! Make it stop! Make it stop! Aaaghhh! Make it stop! Make it stop! It burns! My skin is burning!] exclaimed the old man while rolling on the ground like he was on fire. His voice was heard by everyone in the sect and some elders and Core disciples rushed to the scene.
Unlike Body Cultivation, Qi Cultivation focused solely on refining, increasing and controlling energy. And because of their path, their physical bodies weren't that strong, they were slightly above average at best. So one would ask, why Qi Cultivation if your Gift isn't that strong?
Simply because Qi Cultivation has many advantages as compared to Body Cultivation like Qi Barriers, Wide Range Attacks, Use of Magical Weapons, Arrays and it even allows the Soul to escape the body in extremely dangerous, requires less resources and has extensive knowledge and numerous other advantages. Whereas Body Cultivation only provides physical improvements only but now, Zixin had just exploited one of the few Qi Cultivation weaknesses.
The old man's flesh started to burn, revealing the muscles beneath but that wasn't the end of it, the muscles were also burning, revealing the old man's white bones.
[Help! Help! It burns! It burns!] the pain was so agonising that he couldn't even focus on escaping with his Soul because even the Soul was in pain.
Soon, the elders and Core disciples arrived and saw Zixin standing in front of the old man whose legs and hands were nothing but bones.
[Elder Shui!]
About ten Core disciples had arrived and two moved to take take Elder Shui away, they appeared in front of the old man but just as they were about to take him, Zixin stopped them.
"The old man isn't going anywhere and if you try anything funny, you'll join him!" said Zixin coldly. The two disciples didn't act immediately but checked his cultivation first and once they discovered he had none, they disregarded him. Seeing this, Zixin was angered and released a hundred a hundred Burning Flesh for each of them.
"AAAGGHHH!!!" the two disciples then joined the old man with the screams, rolling on the ground and experience being burned alive but unlike the old man, their bodies were much weaker because they were just Soul Forming Realm experts so the pain was even more agonising. Now, three people were begging for help but the other disciples and elders didn't act rashly.
[Boy, who are you? And what have you done to Elder Shui and the two Core disciples. Do you know the consequences of your actions?!] said one of the elders.
"This is the Demonic Sect, only ones fist does the talking. If you a problem with me then come at me, don't threaten me with rules because the rules don't apply in the sect so you can fuck off to wherever you came from!"
The elder kept quiet because what Zixin just said was the truth, in the Demonic Sect, if you want something, you just take it, if you don't like someone, just beat them up whenever you see them, it was that simple. Soon, the two disciples who were nothing but bones stopped moving, completely dead.
Zixin then took their storage rings and looked at the screaming old man with an apathetic and cold gaze.
"From today onward, you're my slave, are we clear?!"
[Yes, just make it stop! Make it stop! I'll be your slave forever! I Swear on my Dao Heart!] replied the old man. Zixin then exerted a lot of strength to cut himself and fed the old man his blood which was extremely rich in vitality, like it was a tonic. The old man's muscles and flesh started to regenerate, only to burned again, this process went on for a few hours before it stopped and the old man fainted from exhaustion.
