C353 Eight Desolations Palm
Although the aura of desolation was terrifying, it was able to corrode everything. Even if Profound Grade treasure weapon were to be infected by the aura of desolation, they would be decayed and turn into a pile of waste.
However, the Life and Death Qi in Gu Feng's body was ancient and strong. It was born from death and died from birth. It was many times stronger than the Desolate Qi. Furthermore, the Eight Desolations Palm that Gu Feng himself cultivates only contains the power of desolation. Although it is very weak, Gu Feng is still somewhat familiar with it.
"Desolate, Eight Desolations Palm." Gu Feng's eyes narrowed. Eight Desolations Palm was a level eight Profound Grade martial art, but it was known to be able to compete with Earth rank martial arts when cultivated to the strongest level.
The Eight Desolations Palm was indeed very strong in the past, but Gu Feng was definitely not as strong as he had described. Now Gu Feng understood a little, the real terrifying aspect of the Eight Desolations Palm was not his palm power, but the power of desolation it contained. If the Eight Desolations Palm was to use this Desolate Qi to cultivate, the Desolate Force contained within it would be extremely terrifying. At that time, its power would probably be on par with Earth Grade Martial Arts.
"Eight Desolations Palm."
Gu Feng said softly as he looked deep into his eyes. His palm slammed down on the young man from afar. A withered yellow palm gathered in front of Gu Feng. In the blink of an eye, five palm prints condensed in front of him. Every single palm print emitted a yellow glow. The light was incredibly profound, giving off a feeling that made one's heart palpitate. Strands of withered yellow gas were in pain. A leaf floated past, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into dust.
"Desolate Qi?" The young man stared at Gu Feng's palm print and screamed in fear.
Without a second thought, he turned around and ran.
"Let's go."
Gu Feng growled. Five yellow palm prints drew a strange arc in the air and instantly appeared in front of the young man. The palm imprint that was filled with a desolate aura landed on the youth's body under his horrified gaze.
BOOM!
In the blink of an eye, a withered yellow aura spread out, wrapping the youth within it.
The youth's face was deathly pale and the cyan spiritual energy surrounding him rose up, wrapping him within. However, this withered yellow aura was truly terrifying. A desolate aura surged out. It completely corroded the green spiritual energy.
"Ah …"
Screams sounded as the young man's body rapidly shriveled up. Within a few breaths, he turned into a dried up bone without any flesh. It was a very miserable appearance.
"Cough." After the young man was killed, Gu Feng could not help but cough lightly. His face was also terrifyingly pale. All the Desolate Qi he had absorbed before was absorbed by him because he was protected by the Life and Death Qi and it did not harm him. However, when he tried to forcibly merge the aura of desolation into the Eight Desolations Palm, he was met with a backlash.
Gu Feng's forehead could not help but be covered in cold sweat. If not for the Life and Death Qi in his body, at that instant, he too would have become like that young man, a pile of dried up bones.
"The Eight Desolations Palm, requires the power of desolation to bring out its full potential." Gu Feng looked at his palm and pondered.
This world contained the power of desolation, but it was enough for him to cultivate the Eight Desolations Palm. Moreover, once the power of desolation was too powerful, even if he possessed the Qi of Life and Death, the strongest and most terrifying power in this world, he would not be able to escape his doom.
"Is anyone there?" Gu Feng let go of his Spiritual Sense and could feel the strong auras quickly approaching. These auras were very strong, much stronger than the young man just now. That kind of aura belonged to a Martial Cultivator at the second level of the Soul Forging, and there wasn't just one of them.
It was no wonder these people had nothing to fear. The second level of the Soul Forging was already considered to be the peak expert of this world. They did not need to worry about being hunted at all.
Gu Feng's palm gently paused for a moment, before he brought the young man's censer, which had fallen to the ground, to his side. He then used the Phantom Steps of Life and Death, and his figure strangely disappeared from his original position.
Not long after Gu Feng left, sounds of something tearing through the air could be heard.
Four figures descended from the sky, standing in four different positions as they looked at each other warily. These four people were Martial Cultivator at the second level of the Soul Forging. Streams of spirit energy entwined around their bodies and their bodies emitted an extremely strong pressure.
The four of them swept their gaze across their surroundings before finally landing their gazes on the young man who had turned into a pile of dried up bones. Looking at the pile of bones, the expressions of the four finally changed slightly.
One of the black-robed Martial Cultivator grabbed at the air with his hand and said with an incomparably grave expression: "It's the power of desolation."
The other three also had serious expressions on their faces. Even though this space was filled with the power of desolation. But it was very thin, and could not cause any damage to the Martial Cultivator. This skeleton was obviously eroded by the power of desolation, so they had no choice but to pay attention to it.
The power of desolation was a fatal threat to them all.
At night, in a barren mountain range, the true roar of a beast could be heard. A figure was shuttling through the mountains at an extremely fast speed. Along the way, a few ferocious Demonic Beast roared and pounced towards him.
"Swish."
Silver sword beams flashed in the dark night, taking all the Demonic Beast s that pounced over in half.2
The figure also stopped. With the help of the night light, one could see that it was a youth. His face was sickly pale. His cold eyes swept the surroundings, his body exuding a powerful aura, causing the Demonic Beast in the dark to not dare to come close.
On the teenager's shoulder was a foot long pet. It was a black monkey. His eyes sized up the surroundings. If one were to observe carefully, one would notice that Monkey's eyes were filled with vigilance.
This young man was Gu Feng. After killing the young man, he ran like mad without any hesitation. Right now, his body was injured by the power of desolation and needed to be healed. During this one day, he had been ambushed and killed over ten times in this space. In the end, he had also successfully killed five people. Killing five people in a day, this kind of result would definitely shock many people.
However, right now, he needed to heal his injuries as soon as possible. Otherwise, the backlash from the power of desolation would have unpredictable consequences.
"This is a good place." This mountain range was extremely huge, and many strong Demonic Beast were hidden between the ravines and valleys of this mountain range. Even the most powerful assassin would find it difficult to hide himself here.
After finding a mountain wall, Gu Feng opened up a cave in the middle of the air and entered it to treat his injuries. He quickly entered into meditation, his hands forming a seal, and the stars in the sky twinkled. One after another, starlight s fell from the sky and fused into his body.
Titan Giant Ape jumped down from Gu Feng's shoulder and sat at the entrance of the cave.
