Chapter 250: Again
"Ninjutsu–Taijutsu: Twin-Fork Asura!"
As chakra surged, Ghost Wuxie's originally withered, gaunt body expanded at a visible speed. Massive bulging muscles swelled with explosive power.
Not only that, his face twisted into a grotesque, demon-like visage. Sharp fangs protruded outward, each nearly an inch long.
Ghost Wuxie had completely transformed into a blue-faced, fanged demon an Asura!
Only now did Li Jiexuan finally understand why Wuxie was called the Old Demon of the Ghost Fork.
"Hahaha!"
Ghost Wuxie bared his protruding fangs and laughed loudly. "Kid, even if you kneel and beg for mercy now, it's too late."
"Is talking all you can do?"
Li Jiexuan waved lightly, his face full of disdain. "Fight first, then talk!"
"Courting death!"
Ghost Wuxie stomped down with both feet, the ground cracking apart under the terrifying force. With a violent push, the Ghost Fork Asura shot toward Li Jiexuan like a streak of blood-red demonic light.
It was still the same old forward-and-rear fork technique… but this time, the Ghost Fork Asura intended to crush him with sheer strength!
"Perfect timing!" Li Jiexuan swung the Kusanagi Sword, trying to block the attack the same way as before.
But the moment sword and fork collided, an overwhelming force surged forward, blasting Li Jiexuan far into the distance…
"Pfft "
Bright red blood sprayed through the air. Only after crashing through two slabs of sandstone did he barely manage to offset the terrifying force. The shattered debris collapsed down, completely burying him beneath it…
"..."
After a moment of silence, the crowd suddenly erupted into loud cheers.
"I knew it Lord Wuxie would definitely win!"
"Of course! Lord Wuxie is the number one expert in the Land of Birds!"
"Lord Wuxie is the best!"
Hearing the cheers, Ghost Wuxie proudly explained, "Seeing that the kid was still young, I deliberately gave him a move or two."
"Once I used my real strength, it only took a single move to kill him!" Ghost Wuxie sneered coldly. "Send a few men to collect his corpse."
"Did he lose…?"
Watching everything unfold, Noshimura let out a despairing sigh. It seemed he and the Land of Wild could not escape this calamity after all.
It was just a pity for that child he clearly had a bright future, yet died here…
His gaze followed where Li Jiexuan's body should be, but suddenly, he frowned in confusion.
"What is that?"
He noticed something strange atop the pile of rubble…
"Rumble…"
The heap of shattered sandstone began to tremble as if struck by an earthquake. Bits of debris rolled down continuously, faster and faster, until even the celebrating Bird ninja noticed the anomaly…
"Boom!"
The entire pile of rubble exploded apart. Small stones rained down like a storm, and a small figure stood upright amidst the falling debris.
"This brat…" Ghost Wuxie gritted his teeth in shock. "He's still not dead!?"
"Dead?" Li Jiexuan casually tore off his tattered clothes, revealing a body of elegant yet explosive muscle, gleaming like marble.
"Old man, the one who's going to die is you!"
Pale blue lightning appeared with a sharp crack of thunder.
Lightning Armor: Using lightning chakra to stimulate the body's cells. Current development: 20%. Increases strength and speed by twenty percent.
As expected battle was the best way to grow stronger!
With the surge of lightning, immense power once again flooded into his body. Wielding the Kusanagi Sword, Li Jiexuan threw his head back and roared:
"Old man come again!"
