Chapter 594: Chapter 587: Unable to Withstand a Single Blow

True Demons mostly relied on fists and feet in combat.

After all, the foundation of their cultivation was their physical body, which, in a certain sense, was their most powerful weapon.

Of course, there were exceptions, and some True Demons did use tools to assist in battles, but this was not the norm.

The members of the Medicine King Valley, including Ren Tianxing, were all True Immortals, not True Demons.

Naturally, their combat methods differed.

With a wave of his hand, a Big Copper Hammer appeared in Ren Tianxing’s grasp. Merely swinging it without it even striking down caused the earth to tremble, and a terrifying authority enveloped the area.

Centered around that giant tree, within a few hundred meters, rocks, trees, and weeds were instantly turned into dust.

As for Tu Ji, he used an iron claw.

Claw marks densely covered the void, and where they passed, even the empty spaces were etched with grey-black imprints.

The power was so great that it seemed a slightly stronger claw could tear apart the surrounding void.

As for Ding Meng, who was ready to sacrifice his life and doom the assailant with him, his power reached extremes. His body shimmered, transforming into a colossal grinding disc.

Touching the sky and standing on the earth, anything within the range of the grinding disc was obliterated into nothingness.

The last of the True Immortals from Medicine King Valley, although weaker, swung his large saber to emit thousands of blade lights, enveloping an area of hundreds of meters around them.

As they silently approached the giant tree, Ren Tianxing and his comrades were unassuming, but at this moment, when they truly burst forth, their terrifying strength was revealed.

The murderer of Hua Qingfeng, although powerful, was analyzed by the professional Ding Meng to have speed as her greatest asset, so fast that Hua Qingfeng couldn’t even react.

Now, prepared and united, the four had completely sealed off the surrounding region.

With no room to retreat or evade, the assailant had no choice but to directly confront the attack.

As someone skilled in speed, how could she withstand such a level of onslaught?

The assaults from the Medicine King Valley members hadn’t yet truly struck the giant tree, but the tree couldn’t bear the horrifying presence and started collapsing prematurely.

Among the sky-full of wood splinters and chips, a naked young man was exposed to the vision of Ren Tianxing and his comrades.

“Something’s wrong. Didn’t Ding Meng deduce that the murderer of Hua Qingfeng was a woman?”

“Inside the tree hollow, we didn’t see a woman, but a stark-naked man came out first?”

“This man must be the lover of that murderer. By the look of him, he was surely indulging in intimate acts with the murderer inside the tree hollow.”

“Kill first and ask later. Whether our guess is right or wrong, let’s kill him first!”

…

Despite some doubts, the people from Medicine King Valley did not hesitate at all.

Their attacks, compared to before, were even faster and more fierce.

Previously, their target was only the roots of that giant tree. But now, after Chen Hai appeared, they all started attacking him directly.

Without dodging or retreating, Chen Hai stood firm like an unyielding wall.

He stretched out an arm, blocking the Copper Hammer swung down by Ren Tianxing.

Then, with a continual punch towards the sky, he smashed away the giant grinding disc that Ding Meng had transformed into.

As for Tu Ji’s iron claw and the large saber slashed by the other True Immortal, he couldn’t free his hands to counter-effectively, allowing their attacks to land on him.

His body was neither imposing nor robust, giving off a rather slender impression at first glance.

However, when the iron claw and the blade light struck him, they made a clang like striking refined iron.

Among the four from Medicine King Valley, Tu Ji’s strength was just slightly less than Ren Tianxing’s.

His iron claw left white marks on Chen Hai’s body.

The unnamed True Immortal, significantly weaker, swung hundreds of slashes at Chen Hai, which were followed by a ‘crack.’

The long-handled spiritual saber in his hands, under the rebounding force from Chen Hai’s body, shattered into pieces with cracks all over, turning into a pile of fragments.

“This… how is this possible…” With a face full of horror, he stood petrified, frozen in place.

Chen Hai, expressionless, had withstood the combined attack from four members of the Medicine King Valley, yet he did not counterattack immediately, still quietly standing in place.

“Ying, are you ready?” Without giving much attention to Ren Tianxing and the others, Chen Hai turned his head and asked softly.

“Yes! I’m all dressed!” The Heavenly Maiden behind him had her face already covered by a light veil, and the vestment robe given by Chen Hai was also worn on her.

It seemed that Chen Hai’s suggestion had some use; in front of others, she had become much more conservative in her attire and did not expose herself like before.

It had to be said, the sudden attack by Ren Tianxing, Tu Ji, and the others indeed caught Chen Hai and the Heavenly Maiden off guard, hitting them unexpectedly.

Just a moment ago, they were in intimate contact with each other, nearly at zero distance.

With Chen Hai’s reflexes, he didn’t even have time to get dressed, he could only stand up bare-skinned, shielding the Heavenly Maiden.

He, being a rugged man, didn’t care at all about being exposed, but other than himself, he didn’t want anyone else to see the Heavenly Maiden’s body.

Protecting the Heavenly Maiden behind him to shield her from all attacks was the duty of a man.

Seeing that the Heavenly Maiden was now properly dressed, Chen Hai breathed a slight sigh of relief; he turned his head back, and that murderous gaze finally landed on the people from the Medicine King Valley.

“A group ambushing me, and at the time I was busy, you’ve got some nerve.”

“Just now, your attacks landed on me, and they really hurt!”

“Now, it’s my turn to counterattack, prepare to face my endless fury…”

Before he even finished speaking, Chen Hai’s figure completely vanished from sight.

“The villain is fierce, everyone be careful!” Seeing Chen Hai withstand all attacks as if nothing had happened, Ren Tianxing’s expression had already completely changed.

While retreating continuously, he loudly warned Tu Ji, Ding Meng, and the others.

“Still pretending to be a grinding stone, thinking of crushing me? You’ll be the first I deal with!” His voice had just dropped, and Chen Hai’s voice was already sounding from behind Ding Meng.

In his prime, Ding Meng’s strength might have been considered not bad, but in order to suppress the pink filaments within his body, his power was greatly drained. Now, he was probably only about half a catties compared to an unknown True Immortal.

Choosing the soft persimmon to squeeze, blasting away the grinding stone he had turned into, Chen Hai naturally targeted him first since he knew his strength was mediocre.

“Heaven and Earth Great Grinding Stone, demon, die!” Knowing his situation was critical, Ding Meng bellowed.

The giant grinding stone he had turned into trembled in the void, rolling towards Chen Hai to crush him.

“Just this…” His bellow had just ended when Chen Hai’s fist had already slammed onto the grinding stone.

‘Crack crack’, a series of crisp sounds were heard, and gruesome cracks appeared on the grinding stone.

Amidst the continuous screams, Ding Meng’s form reappeared.

His body was covered with gruesome wounds, not just bone-deep, but some split-open wounds even made his internal organs faintly visible.

After all, that giant grinding stone was not any Magic Artifact or Spiritual Artifact, but his own body transformed.

With the grinding stone shattered by Chen Hai’s blow, he himself inevitably suffered severe damage.

“Demon, I’ll fight you with everything I have…” Unable to suppress the pink filaments inside him any longer, Ding Meng, disregarding everything, gathered all his strength, ready for a do-or-die battle with Chen Hai.

“If you’re not strong enough, save the big talk. If you want to fight me to the death, maybe in your next life!”

Just as he was in front of Chen Hai, he vanished again.

As his voice reached Ding Meng’s ears, his fist had already struck directly on the back of Ding Meng’s heart.

“Bang…”

That terrifying force was something Ding Meng couldn’t withstand; his whole body exploded directly, beginning to dissipate into the world.

Almost simultaneously, not far away, the unknown True Immortal from Medicine King Valley, whose large sword was broken by Chen Hai, also let out a sharp, miserable scream.

His chest had been straight pierced through by the delicate hands of the Heavenly Maiden.

In terms of strength, the Heavenly Maiden was no less skillful compared to Chen Hai, especially her speed, which was so fast that even Chen Hai found it hard to keep up.

With her taking action, slaying the unknown True Immortal from the Medicine King Valley was naturally effortless, easily done.
