Chapter 548 - 194: The Invincible Kingkong Body! Kuotuo Qi Gang!_3

```

Just because within a one-zhang radius around Qi Gang, invisible sword qi filled the air, when Kuotuo approached this range, it was like being sliced and pierced by thousands of sharp swords.

"Clang clang clang!"

For ordinary people or demon monsters, getting close to within a one-zhang radius of Qi Gang would result in them being sliced into pieces, but these impregnable sword qi strikes, slashes, and pierces, found it difficult to breach Kuotuo’s Kingkong’s invincible body, creating a crisp metallic resonance upon collision.

And the closer one got to Qi Gang, the more intense the sword qi became, multiplying in strength. Being able to step within his one-zhang radius signified a true master among masters!

As a Five-Qi Grandmaster, Qi Gang had grasped Sword Intent, drawing the Five Qi into his Sea of Consciousness. His cultivation had reached the transformative realm. In the path of swordsmanship, it could be said that there were not many in the world who could compare to him. With his silhouette unmoving, it was already extremely difficult for an ordinary martial artist to approach him!

"My Blade Intent is indeed somewhat inferior to this Qi Gang’s Sword Intent. In the end, it’s because I am not a true Five-Qi Grandmaster."

Seeing Kuotuo struggling to get close to Qi Gang, blocked by his sword qi outside the one-zhang range, Su Changkong couldn’t help but admire the profoundness of Qi Gang’s swordsmanship.

In terms of Intent Realm, Su Changkong indeed did not match Qi Gang. Firstly, he had not been practicing Blade Intent for very long, and secondly, Qi Gang was a Five-Qi Grandmaster, while Su Changkong’s cultivation realm was not enough; far from having drawn Five Qi into his Sea of Consciousness, it was normal that he could not compare!

"Come here!"

Kuotuo’s eyes were wide open in fury, like the angry Ming King. A hand of dark gold suddenly reached out, with an arm seemingly doubling in length out of nowhere, forcefully tearing through layers of sword qi barriers, grabbing towards the unmoving Qi Gang’s throat. The space itself seemed to distort as his five robust fingers clenched together.

If this grasp were to take hold, even steel would be pinched into mud!

And at this moment, Qi Gang finally moved.

"Qi Sword Technique, Qi Penetrates the Rainbow!"

Qi Gang suddenly pointed out, and within the piercing sound of the sword’s whistle, a blazing white longsword, sharp and unstoppable, streaked directly towards Kuotuo’s chest!

The sword, glowing white like a rainbow, was shrouded in bone-chilling coldness, yet it was actually just the condensation of Qi Gang’s Sword Qi and Sword Intent, making it completely imperceptible to the naked eye to discern its authenticity!

"This is Brother Qi’s signature Qi Sword Technique. He does not wear a sword, yet carries a sword with him always! Clearly, he has improved from the last time!"

Cangwen Yu nodded to himself. He and Qi Gang were friends, having sparred with Qi Gang on more than one occasion and had witnessed his swordsmanship.

Qi Gang was skilled in a sword technique that used Qi to form the sword, his rich sword qi and Sword Intent forming his invincible Divine Sword!

"Clang!!"

This angry sword struck upon Kuotuo’s chest, letting out a deafening clang of metal on metal. Kuotuo’s golden body was unbreakable, stubbornly enduring the sword that could penetrate steel walls, yet the immense force concentrated at the tip of the sword still managed to forcibly push him back more than a zhang.

This made the veins on Kuotuo’s forehead bulge. Since he had become known, there were few who could contend with him, let alone repel him head-on.

"Demon Suppression Vajra Fist!"

Furious, Kuotuo’s dark golden body took on an even deeper lustre. His arms, ridged with muscle like a frenzied demon, and dark flames wrapped around his body, his fists fell like shooting stars, furiously bombarding Qi Gang, intent on blasting him into shreds!

"Bring it on."

Qi Gang’s hands moved in unison, his fingertips joining together to condense the blazing white Divine Sword, meeting Kuotuo’s heavy punches head-on.

"Boom boom boom!"

The two collided furiously, neither yielding, with sword qi ravaging and fist aura sweeping through, the force from their impacts scattering and causing endless echoing booms that resonated throughout the valley, pounding painfully on the eardrums.

Clang clang clang!

Fists and swords clashed, Qi Gang’s Qi Sword Technique unleashed tides of sword qi, and with a thought, the Divine Sword tore the sky and split the earth. Kuotuo, once a disciple of the Vajra Temple, had cultivated his Kingkong’s invincible body to a terrifying realm – even Qi Gang’s Divine Sword could not injure him for the time!

"What a terrifying Kuotuo... able to resist Lord Qi’s Divine Sword with his flesh and blood!"

The Innate Martial Artists present all had grave expressions. As martial artists, they could naturally see that each of Qi Gang’s strikes was frighteningly powerful, likely too much for ordinary Innates to withstand for even one or two exchanges.

As for that Kuotuo, he was also exceptionally strong. His Kingkong’s invincible body could be called the strongest Horizontal Training Hard Skill in the Great Flame Empire, strong enough to withstand Qi Gang’s Divine Sword.

"Is this the Demon Suppressing Department’s Qi Gang who wields the Emptiness Sword? A Five-Qi Grandmaster... it’s just too terrifying!"

Those Monster Warriors also displayed sober expressions.

A Five-Qi Grandmaster possesses Swordsmanship at the Intent Realm, capable of restraining the Immortal Body. If they were to face Qi Gang, a single misstep could mean the destruction of their Sea of Consciousness and spiritual death!

Neither side dared to rashly join the great battle and were also on guard against each other. In truth, should anyone else have joined in, it was likely they would risk falling in battle!

"Roar!"

In a short time, after dozens of successive exchanges, it was clear to see that Kuotuo’s golden body had become dull from enduring Qi Gang’s heavy blows. Blood vessels filled his eyes, prompting him to stake everything on one throw.

His right fist formed a seal, with demonic power boiling within, his entire fist engorged with overflowing demonic power and Qi and Blood, swelling in size and turning a purplish-green hue, forcibly tearing through layers of Sword Qi and striking towards Qi Gang’s chest.

At that moment, Qi Gang’s Sword Intent also converged to a single point. The radiant light of his Divine Sword in his right hand burst forth, the dazzling cold light painfully stinging the eyes and causing brief dizziness and blindness.

"Bang!"

The heavy punch landed on Qi Gang’s left shoulder, and the sound of something shattering could be heard. It was not the sound of bone breaking, but rather a layer of ’armour’ formed by condensed Sword Qi.

Qi Gang’s mastery of Qi Sword Technique had reached an untouchable level by others, capable of both offense and defense, perfectly integrated!

Even so, despite the protection of the Sword Armour, Qi Gang was still blown back by the impact.

"Crack!"

But at the same time, Qi Gang’s incredible sword strike, infused with decades of painstakingly cultivated Sword Intent, resulted in a rainbow of Sword Qi that burst the dark golden light on the surface of Kuotuo’s body, penetrated his heart, and emerged from his back!

The Sword Qi did not dissipate immediately but flew more than ten yards away, leaving behind a trail of rainbow light before it gradually vanished.

"Brother Qi!"

Cangwen Yu hastily caught the staggering Qi Gang who was sent flying.

"I’m fine." Qi Gang forcefully swallowed back the blood that reached his throat and shook his head.

Qi Gang had taken Kuotuo’s heavy punch head-on and was severely injured, with his Qi and Blood in turmoil.

"You..."

As for Kuotuo, he fared even worse. With his heart pierced through, he wanted to say something, but his eyes lost their sparkle as his burly body collapsed to the ground limply.

"Lord Kuotuo!"

This scene made all the Monster Warriors cry out in shock, staring at Kuotuo as he fell.

Kuotuo was a Master of the Association at the branch level, an elite among the elites of the Life Extinguishing Association.

Yet now, in the blink of an eye during the fierce battle with Qi Gang, although Kuotuo had inflicted injuries on Qi Gang, he himself had been pierced through the chest by Qi Gang’s Intent-laden sword!

The Immortal Body of demons is indeed restrained by Swordsmanship at the Intent Realm. A heart pierced like this cannot recover, and death was inevitable!

The faces of the Life Extinguishing Association members all paled, as Kuotuo, a high-ranking official, was slain on the spot, undoubtedly bringing them great shock and fear!
