Chapter 97

"Practice the Golden Bell Cover!"

Zhou Yang took a gentle step forward, silently reciting the words in his heart.

In terms of recovery, he could never match the Dragon Right of the Corpse King. The Dragon Right's indestructible body was truly formidable; what would be a fatal injury to others, he could recover from in an instant.

Moreover, he could even regenerate severed limbs, perhaps at some cost, but these costs were entirely within the Dragon Right's tolerance.

Since he couldn't match in recovery, he would have to compete in defense.

"The Golden Bell Cover, a top martial art, costs 10,000 value points. Do you confirm the practice?"

"Yes," Zhou Yang said, feeling a pang of pain.

"10,000 value points deducted."

In an instant, Zhou Yang's value points decreased by 10,000, causing his eyelids to twitch slightly.

He had planned to save these value points to buy a high-level Daoist technique and study it himself, but now he had wasted them on the Dragon Right of the Corpse King.

Dong~

As the system's prompt sound faded, it seemed like a series of bell chimes resonated within Zhou Yang's body. Instantly, twelve of his body's key points were opened.

The Golden Bell Cover is a hard external martial art, belonging to the category of yang-just strength, combined with internal strength. Its defense is unparalleled, but most people can only reach the eighth key point and find it extremely difficult to progress further.

As the strongest defensive martial art created by Bodhidharma, it naturally has its unique qualities. When practiced to perfection, it truly makes one invulnerable.

The Golden Bell Cover has appeared in different worlds, with varying levels of power. In Jin Yong's wuxia world, Zhou Yang doesn't remember anyone practicing the Golden Bell Cover.

However, in the world of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber," the space monk's fully developed Indestructible Body was quite terrifying. Just standing there, he allowed the Golden Lion King Xie Xun to attack with all his might. Xie Xun, a top expert at the innate realm, was one of the Four Great Kings of the Ming Cult. Despite his full-force attacks, he couldn't break through the space monk's defense. If the Indestructible Body were fully developed, Xie Xun would have had no chance of a successful sneak attack.

In the eyes of Zhu Wushi, the Iron Gall Bladder Divine Marquis, and the Dragon Right of the Corpse King, Zhou Yang's skin merely flashed with a faint golden light, which quickly faded.

"Practice the Seven Injuries Fist!"

"1,500 value points deducted."

"Practice the One Reed Crossing the River!"

"8,000 value points deducted."

Each step Zhou Yang took was slow, and he quietly watched the Dragon Right of the Corpse King. With each step, he felt a pang of pain. In just a short while, he had spent nearly 20,000 value points.

All he wanted now was to give the Dragon Right of the Corpse King a good beating.

"Come!"

Zhou Yang gently beckoned to the Dragon Right of the Corpse King, his eyes filled with helplessness. To beat the Dragon Right of the Corpse King, he needed to strengthen himself significantly, but the cost in value points was too high.

However, these actions were seen as a sign of contempt by the Dragon Right of the Corpse King.

The Dragon Right of the Corpse King's face was full of anger. His right foot slightly pushed off the ground, and he shot forward like a ghost, delivering a kick to Zhou Yang's head with a terrifying force, tearing through the air.

Bang!

When the kick was still three feet away from Zhou Yang, a bell-shaped, pale golden protective aura formed around him. The pale golden aura looked very thin, as if it would shatter with a light touch.

However, under the Dragon Right of the Corpse King's violent kick, it only rippled slightly.

Evaluating the defense of the Golden Bell Cover, although it wasn't as strong as in other worlds, it was more than enough to defend against the Dragon Right of the Corpse King's current attacks.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Dragon Right of the Corpse King wildly struck the pale golden aura, but could not cause any damage.

"It's my turn now," Zhou Yang said with a faint smile, looking at the Dragon Right of the Corpse King, whose face was a mix of shock and anger.

Hearing this, the Dragon Right of the Corpse King became wary and retreated, quickly moving several dozen meters away from Zhou Yang.

However, when he looked back, Zhou Yang had already disappeared.

"Seven Injuries Fist!"

The One Reed Crossing the River technique was not just a name; it was as fast as lightning. In an instant, Zhou Yang appeared behind the Dragon Right of the Corpse King, delivering a punch that roared through the air, striking the Dragon Right's back. The punch contained seven different forces, each with its own characteristics, some fierce, some gentle, some a mix of both, some horizontal, some straight, and some inward.

The human body has yin and yang energies and the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The "seven injuries" refer to these seven types of damage, representing the body's internal organs.

This was why Zhou Yang chose this technique, as it specifically targets internal organs.

The Dragon Right of the Corpse King's indestructible body had already reached the level of limb regeneration, but Zhou Yang was unsure if his internal organs had reached the same level. Regardless, the internal organs and brain are the most vulnerable parts of the human body.

"Pu!"

A mouthful of blood spewed from the Dragon Right of the Corpse King's mouth, and his face twisted in pain. This punch had actually injured his indestructible body, the very foundation of his existence. If he lost his indestructible body, he would die.

The Dragon Right of the Corpse King clenched his left hand into a fist and struck Zhou Yang's chest.

Zhou Yang did not dodge. Instead, his right hand, like an eagle's claw, grabbed the incoming fist, while his left hand, transformed into a blade, cut through the arm with a pale golden glow.

Sss!

The Dragon Right of the Corpse King's right arm was severed and held in Zhou Yang's hand.

Zhu Wushi and the others were both stunned and unsurprised. After just a few exchanges, the Dragon Right of the Corpse King was at a clear disadvantage, and Zhou Yang had directly cut off his arm with a hand blade.

Ximen Chuixue, Ye Gucheng, and others, who had sparred with the Dragon Right of the Corpse King, knew how formidable his defense was. Now, it had been cut off so easily.

However, they felt it was only natural. If Zhou Yang couldn't easily overpower the Dragon Right of the Corpse King, it wouldn't fit his divine status.

Looking at the Dragon Right of the Corpse King, who was kneeling silently on the ground, Zhou Yang stood still, watching him try to act cool.

Noticing Zhou Yang's stillness, the Dragon Right of the Corpse King was taken aback. Why wasn't he pressing his advantage?

He had planned to wait for Zhou Yang to attack, then stand up and regenerate his arm to scare the group.

But thinking about the group, the Dragon Right of the Corpse King reluctantly stood up, silently regenerating his arm while contemplating how to escape.

"Ding! A thousand-year-old ancient corpse, the indestructible body of the Dragon Right's arm, containing ten drops of indestructible body essence blood, each drop worth 3,000 value points." Feeling that the Dragon Right of the Corpse King's body was extraordinary, Zhou Yang stored it in the system. Hearing the system's voice, he was stunned by its value.

"The indestructible body essence blood allows the user to absorb the genetic traits of other species, enhancing their own body." Seeing the effects of the indestructible body essence blood, Zhou Yang nodded. Although the enhancement had limits, it could improve the inherent weakness of one's genetic makeup, making it a true treasure.

"Zhu Wushi, stop him." Seeing the Dragon Right of the Corpse King trying to escape, Zhou Yang shouted.

Instantly, the Dragon Right of the Corpse King was surrounded by Zhu Wushi and others, and his face turned grim. Should he enter the second stage form?

However, entering the second stage form in his current state would put too much strain on his indestructible body, potentially destroying it.

"Leave one arm behind and go." The Dragon Right of the Corpse King, hesitating and struggling to decide, heard Zhou Yang's calm voice.

Bang!

Seeing Zhou Yang's expression, the Dragon Right of the Corpse King knew he wasn't lying. Although he hated Zhou Yang and his group, he calmly pulled off his arm and threw it on the ground, thinking to himself that he had finally managed to act cool.

Zhou Yang waved his hand, knowing he couldn't push the Dragon Right of the Corpse King further. If he went all out, Zhou Yang couldn't stop him. He instructed Zhu Wushi and the others to clear the way and let the Dragon Right of the Corpse King leave.
