Chapter 77: Chapter 77: North Dipper Greedy Wolf, Earth-Shattering Surprise! (Request for First Subscription)
After he had mastered the basics of the fist technique, Su Ping had a full meal and rested well.
Then, he chose an auspicious time.
He stood in front of the thatched cottage at the top of Bone-burying Mountain, facing the large locust tree with a human face, and clenched his fists in silence, ready to test the North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist Secret Skill, which had a prestigious background!
As Su Ping slowly exhaled the foul air, his right hand gently bent at the shoulder.
Su Ping, who was silently reciting the mantra of the North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist in his mind.
The Immortal Texts that seemed alive when he had learned them echoed in his mind.
...
Faint white vapor began emanating from Su Ping’s body, which then twined around his right fist.
Along with this surge of emotion, every inch of muscle and every internal organ strained to extract their potential, producing white vapor that fed into his fist.
The whole process, slow to describe, happened in the blink of an eye and soon Su Ping’s fist was enveloped in white vapor.
“Concentration of Fist Intent successful!”
“Next… let’s see if I can keep enhancing the power of this punch with Life Spirit Medicine!”
Motivated by this thought, Su Ping exchanged and immediately used the Life Spirit Medicine.
A bottle of Life Spirit Medicine allowed Su Ping to instantly recover 100 vitality, and continue regenerating vitality over the next thirty seconds.
He had already discovered while cultivating spiritual beasts that the sustained recovery effects and duration of Life Spirit Medicine couldn’t stack!
Drinking only one-tenth of it only provided one-tenth of the recovery effect; he couldn’t use tricks like with Purification Spirit Medicine.
As the Spiritual Medicine took effect, vitality kept regenerating and converting into white vapor, accumulating on the fist.
Vaguely, a four-to-five meters tall, indistinct white wolf illusion appeared behind Su Ping.
The Fist Intent on his fist also grew increasingly strong!
The white vapor wolf slightly opened its mouth, faintly exuding a cold intent capable of devouring heaven and earth, intimidating all beings, affecting the ghost fires and ghosts in Bone-burying Ground.
It caused them to shrink back into the deep soil as if frightened.
Little Black and a puppy playing on the Stone Lion’s head suddenly froze, their fur standing on end as if electrified.
Thirty seconds later, the continuous effect of the Life Spirit Medicine wore off.
The power of this punch was now at least three times stronger than when Su Ping had first concentrated it!
“One bottle of Life Spirit Medicine plus thirty seconds of recovery time can enhance the power of my North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist by three times.”
“If I use ten bottles of Life Spirit Medicine over three hundred seconds, wouldn’t that enhance the power by at least thirty times!”
“The stacking time is a bit long, of course, but if I have enough Fishing Coins, I could rely solely on the immediate recovery effect of Life Spirit Medicine and forsake the thirty-second sustained recovery state.”
“It’s not impossible to instantly enhance vitality and quickly stack up Fist Intent, and then blast it out making the opponent exclaim it’s impossible!”
“But that would be too consuming of Life Spirit Medicine, and I still want to continue with ten consecutive draws.”
“From the effect of that one bottle of Life Spirit Medicine just now, each 100 point increase in life value can double the potency, thirty seconds of sustained recovery regenerating 200 life points combined to triple the power.”
“Unfortunately, as tested before, the continuous recovery effect of Life Spirit Medicine can’t be stacked together effectively; otherwise, using it multiple times and just accumulating thirty seconds more could also be acceptable.”
“Now to achieve the same effect in a short duration, I would need to simultaneously use three bottles of Life Spirit Medicine to match the effect of a single bottle today!”
“This isn’t just risking life but a major move of spending Fishing Coins!”
Having figured out the plan, Su Ping decided not to continue charging up.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
Instead, after taking a deep breath, he fiercely launched his right fist into the sky.
Aow!
It might have been an illusion, but when Su Ping launched that punch, it seemed like he heard the roar of a giant wolf exploding in the void.
Bang!
The white vapor formed Greedy Wolf Illusion opened its mouth wide and pounced into the sky, and in the next instant, it turned into an explosive current sweeping all around.
The moment the explosion occurred, it created a hurricane that, with a roaring sound, moved even further in all directions.
The giant canopy of the human-faced locust tree rustled under the hurricane, and the giant human face hid under new tree bark.
In the range of the explosion, the ground around Su Ping seemed to be under immense pressure. Stone tables and chairs, along with those three thatched cottages, collapsed simultaneously.
Even the top of Bone-burying Mountain caved in, forming a shallow crater with a radius of over fifty meters with Su Ping at the center.
The blast from this punch almost covered the entire sky above Yunlai Immortal Realm.
Although the area of Yunlai Immortal Realm isn’t large, it clearly showed the power of this deadly move.
Even the Evil Exorcism Punishment Stone Lion opened its eyes to look in the direction of the blast at the top of Bone-burying Mountain, and barely perceptibly nodded in approval before slowly closing its eyes again.
Little Taoist Zhouxuan, who was farming, also heard the loud noise, but as his view was blocked by a formation, he couldn’t even see the big locust tree and assumed it was the doing of some Immortal Master.
Since no one came to find him, it meant it had nothing to do with him as an Outer Sect Disciple, so he just needed to continue his routine, joyfully cultivating.
At the top of Bone-burying Mountain.
Su Ping was also shocked by the destructive power of his own punch, which exceeded his expectations.
As he slowly withdrew his fist, his gaze inadvertently caught the devastated surroundings.
However, Su Ping had no time to focus on the wider situation, as the aftermath of executing the North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist suddenly hit him like a flood.
Feeling as if his entire body had been burned and slashed, and his bones were nearly disintegrating, Su Ping couldn’t care about anything else and quickly took some Life Spirit Medicine and Purification Spirit Medicine.
Thanks to the unbelievable power of the medicines, which seemed to involve the force of rules, he managed to completely recover from that extremely uncomfortable state of collapse within seconds.
Then, as Su Ping regained his senses, took deep breaths, he slowly became aware of some odd changes in himself.
“A normal cultivator at the middle stage of Body Cultivation would likely be dead or alive after throwing a punch like that!”
“However, something feels strange!”
“After that punch, the Immortal Texts concerning the North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist in my memory seem somewhat more vivid?”
“I’ve gained a bit more understanding of this secret skill?”
“This feeling, it’s like I’ve gained a proficiency panel by mistake!”
“Too bad I can’t summon the panel, it really is just an illusion!”
“So, is it that this secret skill itself requires such practice?”
“Hiss… If that’s really the required method of cultivation, who aside from those with a Sacred Body could master this martial art to greatness!”
“It’s a trap, truly too much of a trap!”
“Wait a second, looks like I can also continue by consuming medicine? Then it’s all fine!”
Su Ping complained verbally, but he was quite happy in his heart.
This cultivation technique might be tricky and restrictive, but its power indeed matches its extraordinary origin!
And it’s strong enough with potential, furthermore, it can keep improving as my body cultivation realm improves!
Su Ping recalled the punch he had just executed.
He was certain that even those senior brothers and sisters in the late period of Qi Cultivation, even after utilizing magical artifacts, couldn’t produce such force!
Besides the sheer power, the sheer destructive force.
Under the Greedy Wolf Fist Intent, there seemed to be a trace of mysterious power that he still didn’t comprehend.
It was with the aid of this power that the top of Bone-burying Mountain had been so disastrously affected, directly creating a shallow crater.
And it also caused the thatched hut and stone table to meet their historical duties earlier than expected, necessitating their replacement.
But, more importantly!
This punch that surpasses a full-strength blow from a late-period Qi Cultivation practitioner using a magical artifact.
This was not Su Ping’s limit!
As long as there is enough Spiritual Medicine!
Producing ten times, a hundred times the power of the North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist isn’t an unattainable goal.
“Below Foundation Establishment, I am invincible; above Foundation Establishment …”
“I’m not quite clear yet about the tactics and lifelines of Foundation Establishment cultivators, so it’s hard to comment.”
Su Ping had suffered at the Immortal Sect for twenty years, witnessing sparring between Inner Sect disciples and full-on spellcasting duels by those who achieved Perfection in Qi Cultivation.
But Foundation Establishment cultivators seemed too far a reach for him, knowing only that they possess Divine Sense, enhanced five senses, can maneuver multiple magical artifacts and even temporarily use Spiritual Artifacts at a certain cost, his understanding went no further.
Breaking the protective Qi Shield of a Foundation Establishment should be not too difficult with the North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist.
After all, in Immortal Sect novels, it’s common for late Qi Cultivation practitioners to team up with those of Foundation Establishment to influence and decide outcomes against other Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The novelists of the Immortal Sect don’t have the wild imaginations of the information age authors to write fiction without basis, for if late Qi Cultivation couldn’t even break their defenses, such plots couldn’t be possible.
Otherwise, they would truly be hassled offline by the Immortal Sect disciples!
The problem is how to ensure hitting the actual body of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
As for a surprise attack … It’s quite rare to assault a Foundation Establishment cultivator, though it occasionally happens with late Qi Cultivation practitioners.
“Hey!”
“Why think so far ahead, with my current status and identity, attracting a late Qi Cultivation practitioner would already mean bad luck.”
“If I really run into an unbeatable enemy, I can always run away!”
“I’ve stored up two Teleportation Runes after all!”
“First go to Mysterious Turtle Island, then back to Water Blue Star, stay for a year and a half before returning to the Immortal Cultivation World, and if I still get ambushed then, I’ll accept my fate.”
Su Ping sorted out his thoughts, reaching a clear mind thereafter.
He then continued cultivating and found that even his cultivation speed had slightly increased.
Next, Su Ping started throwing out a North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist every day.
And carried out experiments to see if punches with one-fold, three-fold, and multiple-fold power would differ.
The good news was that as long as he could successfully execute a punch and recover, he could speed up the proficiency of this secret skill and get some related insights.
The bad news was that even with overlap from consuming Spiritual Medicine, Su Ping had to diligently practice throwing punches to achieve minor or even major success with this secret skill.
Fortunately, just like a fishing game, he could genuinely feel the progress of his cultivation, and effort was rewarded!
Thus, just as the fishing points were about to refresh,
Su Ping returned to Frost Moon Villa.
As usual, he stored the Body Tempering Medicine Bags bought by the manager into his storage bag, and checked the mail.
An immortal crane delivered an urgent report from the Immortal Sect.
Su Ping opened the urgent report and saw the contents of the emergency notification from the Merit and Demerit Hall!
It turned out that there was a loophole on the front lines, with an inexact number, no more than three digits, of adult demon beasts of strength no greater than late Qi Cultivation who had scattered and infiltrated behind the defensive lines.
Several cities in the rear had been ravaged by these demon beasts, with heavy casualties among the mortals!
Clearly, these packs of demon beasts came prepared, intentionally attacking mortal gatherings and reveling in slaughter!
Su Ping’s Golden Sparrow City was located behind these unfortunate cities, potentially making it the next target for these marauding demon beasts!
Therefore, the Merit and Demerit Hall sent an urgent report, instructing all Inspection Envoys to collaborate with the local City Lord Mansion to defend major cities in their own territories fiercely!
And to hold their grounds while waiting for rescue from the Inspection Envoys!
“It really is when it rains, it pours; with natural and man-made disasters, and now demon beasts are coming!”
“However, considering the demon beasts that the Inspection Envoys can handle, I should be able to deal with them now, right?”
“Mmm… given that most adult demon beasts are comparable to the late period of body cultivation and are even more tough and resilient!”
“I should also go back to my hometown to swap for more powerful weapons to hunt.”
