Chapter 95

Remember in one second 【↘→】, providing you with exciting novel reading. "Thud"

"Hum"

A loud, dull sound instantly spread out, accompanied by a massive counter-shock force and a shockwave that spread ten meters around!

The monstrous figure, resembling a mountain of flesh, and a slender, tall figure seemed to explode, each rapidly retreating backward!

"Rustle... Rustle..."

The soles of their feet rubbed against the ground frantically, their figures pushed back by the massive counter-shock force. The blood and qi within their bodies churned slightly, and the numbness and pain from the right fist and right arm surged to their hearts, making Ye Wuxue's eyes even more brilliant and clear!

"Thud... Thud..."

With every step Pang Zhong retreated, it was as if the ground was shaking. His retreat was like a mammoth elephant being startled, its four legs stepping back in unison, creating a shocking scene. The fat on his body trembled violently, and the 333-jin (about 666 pounds) Pang Zhong was unable to stabilize his figure under the counter-shock force, only stopping after retreating five steps!

Stabilizing his figure, Pang Zhong looked intently at the opposite side. A hint of shock flashed in his small eyes. In the next moment, his gaze sharpened, as he saw that Ye Wuxue had also stabilized his figure, retreating five steps as well, his eyes shining like knives, fiercely attacking!

With one punch, the two were evenly matched, a draw!

This scene on the martial arena instantly caused a series of exclamations from the spectators on the circular stone seats. However, they were not exclaiming over the impressive punches of the two combatants, but rather over Ye Wuxue!

Ye Wuxue actually used his own fist to clash with Pang Zhong's sandbag-sized fist!

The expected scene of Pang Zhong overwhelming Ye Wuxue with absolute superiority did not occur. Instead, Ye Wuxue not only clashed with Pang Zhong's fist but also seemed to be on equal footing.

"Monster! Is Ye Wuxue a monster?"

"Unbelievable! To clash with Pang Zhong's fist using only physical strength and not be at a disadvantage!"

"This kid's physical strength must have been honed!"

"It seems that physical strength is also one of Ye Wuxue's trump cards!"

...

The expressions of Yueshan City Lord and Zhao Wujie changed slightly at this moment. The former was purely surprised, while the latter felt a sense of disappointment from miscalculation.

"Hehe, I've always said, until the last moment, no one can predict what will happen."

Qi Shilong's voice sounded in Zhao Wujie's ear, the slight smile in his tone making Zhao Wujie's face darken.

"Hmph, the battle has just begun. Pang Zhong's strength is far beyond what Ye Wuxue can match. Just wait and see, Ye Wuxue will surely lose."

Zhao Wujie let out a cold snort, as he saw the Yueshan City Lord's face return to a grin.

Yueshan City Lord's large belly slightly protruded as he said to Qi Shilong, "Longguang, I didn't expect that the kid under your command had also honed his physical strength. Not bad at all."

As a city lord, Yueshan City Lord's eyes were incredibly sharp. He could see at a glance that Ye Wuxue's physical strength had definitely been honed and was extremely strong. Otherwise, ordinary cultivators would be lucky not to have their hands and feet broken by a direct hit from Pang Zhong.

In his view, Ye Wuxue's physical strength must have been cultivated and nurtured by Qi Shilong, so he asked for confirmation.

Yueshan City Lord's words made Qi Shilong's gaze sharpen, as he understood that Ye Wuxue's physical strength was a result of his own cultivation, not the work of Qi Shilong.

Ye Wuxue was shrouded in layers of mystery. If it weren't for Qi Shilong coincidentally seeing the Blood Dragon Jade and making a promise to Ye Wuxue, Ye Wuxue might not have participated in the Hundred Cities Battle. Moreover, it was likely that no one present had remembered the black-robed youth on the martial arena who had once caused a storm in the Hundred Major Cities ten years ago.

The more Qi Shilong pondered this young man, the more he found him extraordinary and mysterious. It seemed that there were secrets within him that others could not explore and should not know. However, Qi Shilong felt more amazed and hopeful, as Ye Wuxue had emerged from his Longguang City. No matter what this young man would become in the future, this fact would never change.

Therefore, he remained silent, tacitly acknowledging Yueshan City Lord's words, which also served as a form of protection for Ye Wuxue.

Sitting on the stone seat, Wei Xiong's eyes showed a hint of surprise and admiration. From Ye Wuxue's recent punch, he realized that Ye Wuxue's physical strength was not honed later but was naturally strong. This strength seemed to be deeply embedded in his body, only gradually surfacing as his cultivation improved.

Wei Xiong even speculated that Ye Wuxue himself might not be aware of this.

"Looks like this kid has some secrets..."

The sharp eyes and brilliant gaze met, and the shock in Pang Zhong's heart was intense. He lightly clenched his fist, dispersing the numbness and pain in his right arm.

"Unbelievable, truly unbelievable. Among the young generation of the Hundred Major Cities, there is actually someone who can clash with me using physical strength. This numbness and pain, how long has it been since I felt it..."

He patted his face with his large hand, causing the fat on his face to tremble, slightly revealing his features. After lowering his hand, a hint of madness and excitement flashed across his face!

"Roar"

A low roar, Pang Zhong's fists heavily pounded his body, causing the fat on his body to tremble violently. But the aura that spread out was like a fierce fire!

Ye Wuxue, ten meters away from Pang Zhong, stood tall and independent, his black martial robe gently fluttering, his long black hair thick and dense. The white skin exposed outside had a faint glow, as if a powerful force was surging from deep within his body, awakening from a long slumber and returning to the world.

"Ye Wuxue, since your physical strength is also impressive, I can now use my full strength with confidence! Hahaha... Finally, I can have a good, intense battle!"

Pang Zhong's voice was incredibly deep, filled with boundless joy and enthusiasm, as if it came from the depths of his throat. Earth-yellow elemental energy began to swirl around his body, quickly enveloping him. Then, changes began to occur in Pang Zhong's body.

"Hum"

The earth-yellow light continuously moved around Pang Zhong's body. Wherever it passed, the originally trembling fat began to twist and shrink at an astonishing speed. This scene occurred all over his body, and the earth-yellow light became increasingly bright, eventually completely enveloping him.

Ten meters away, Ye Wuxue was not idle. The Holy Dao Battle Qi surged within his body, as if it had fused with his flesh, bones, and marrow. From the inside out, it continuously condensed. A force that had never appeared before seemed to surge from the depths of his body, gathering in his blood and physical strength, making Ye Wuxue clearly feel his physical strength increasing at an unusual speed.

This strange state increased Ye Wuxue's doubts. Raising his arms, he even saw a faint golden light moving and flashing under his skin, providing him with powerful strength.

"Something is changing within my body."

This thought surged in his mind, but he quickly suppressed it, as he felt a formidable aura from the opposite side!

"Hum"

The intense earth-yellow light finally dissipated from Pang Zhong's body, revealing a massive figure, but it was vastly different from before.

Now, every bit of excess fat on Pang Zhong's body had disappeared, replaced by twisted muscles. His rough, dark skin concealed an incredibly terrifying force. He had transformed from a 333-jin (about 666 pounds) fat man into a towering giant!

Even the features that were previously compressed by fat were now clearly visible, rough and bold. Standing on the martial arena, Pang Zhong now resembled a mighty Force Emperor, exuding an overwhelming aura with every movement.

On the circular stone seats, Dou Tian's gaze fell on the transformed Pang Zhong, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes.

At the Sword Casting City, Feng Cai Chen, with clear eyes, also narrowed his eyes at Pang Zhong.

"Clap"

His large hands came together, a wave of energy spreading out. Pang Zhong looked at Ye Wuxue, his eyes burning with intense battle spirit.

"Haha... Good! Pang Zhong, as you wish, let's have an all-out battle!"

"Thud"

His right foot stomped heavily, and Ye Wuxue let out a loud cry, his body shooting forward like an arrow, choosing to make the first move this time!

"Whoosh"

His body rubbed against the surrounding air, causing it to heat up. The battle spirit in his heart ignited like a raging fire, his eyes shining like a celestial blade. He raised his fists and charged directly at Pang Zhong.

"Come on! Force Emperor True Body! Open up!"

"Hum"

The earth-yellow light flashed and disappeared, and Pang Zhong's body instantly turned as if painted with earth-yellow paint. His twisted muscles glowed with earth-yellow light. At this moment, Pang Zhong had transformed into a Force Emperor, towering and sweeping everything in his path!

"Thud... Thud..."

"Whoosh... Whoosh..."

The ten-meter distance was instantly crossed, and the two figures collided again. Their fists, each carrying terrifying force, slammed into each other!

"Boom" "Thud"

At this moment, it was like a thunderclap. The two colliding fists exploded with a powerful counter-shock force and a shockwave, spreading in all directions! But this time, neither Ye Wuxue nor Pang Zhong retreated. Instead, they gathered their strength and launched their fists through the air, beginning a third intense collision!

"Thud" "Boom"

"Rumble"

On the martial arena, the two figures began a full-scale confrontation. The surging fist energy and sweeping fist wind spread in all directions. The sound of flesh-to-flesh collisions echoed in everyone's ears, making them feel a deep sense of awe and marvel at the power of the punches.

Ye Wuxue's figure moved as fast as lightning. As soon as he threw one punch, the second followed, each punch filled with terrifying force, as if his white fists contained a world-shaking power!

Pang Zhong, towering like an iron tower, his earth-yellow body exuding a formidable aura, continuously swept his large hands down, colliding with Ye Wuxue's fists, creating shocking explosions!

"Thud" "Boom"

The two figures spanned the entire martial arena, the intense shockwaves and counter-shock forces continuously spreading. If a third person approached within five meters of them, they would immediately be blown away by the surging force.

The entire circular stone seat was silent, no one speaking. All eyes were fixed on the martial arena, watching the two young figures clash with pure physical strength, their hearts surging with excitement and their blood boiling.

If Feng Cai Chen's sword gave a sense of brilliance and grandeur, and Dou Tian gave a sense of dominance and tyranny, then Ye Wuxue gave a sense of violence, raw and unbridled violence.

Ye Wuxue's continuous punches, each carrying a thousand-jin force, collided with Pang Zhong's powerful hands, fierce like a raging fire, dominant like a thunderbolt.

As time passed, Ye Wuxue and Pang Zhong's close combat entered a stalemate. They both refrained from using any combat techniques, relying solely on their physical strength.

Releasing the surging force within his body, Ye Wuxue became more and more excited, his battle spirit surging like lava, his eyes like lightning, his aura like the sky, feeling the endless awakening force within his body.

In stark contrast to Ye Wuxue, Pang Zhong became increasingly shocked. He knew exactly how powerful the Force Emperor True Body was. A single punch could match the strength of a low-grade ordinary weapon, and a full-strength attack could approach the strength of a mid-grade ordinary weapon.

A typical late-stage Essence Spirit Realm expert would immediately have their blood and qi churn, their bones vibrate, and feel as if struck by lightning, becoming dizzy and unable to use their strength.

Yet, after at least a hundred collisions with such a powerful punch, Ye Wuxue showed no signs of defeat. Instead, he became more and more excited, and Pang Zhong even felt his arms becoming slightly numb.

"How is this possible? Could his physical strength be even stronger than mine?"

The two fists met in the air, followed by a loud explosion. The two figures each threw three more punches, and after three "thuds," Ye Wuxue and Pang Zhong retreated and stood seven to eight steps apart.

"Exciting! Truly exciting! I never thought close combat would be so exhilarating!"

His eyes flashed with excitement and enthusiasm, and Ye Wuxue felt his body trembling, a deep-seated desire and joy from his soul, as if he was born to fight this way.

Pang Zhong, with his earth-yellow, towering body, his small eyes flashing with a hint of sharpness.

"If we continue this close combat, although I am not afraid, it will waste time. This is the Hundred Cities Battle, not a sparring match. The outcome is crucial, and I cannot waste unnecessary strength. I must end the battle as soon as possible."

With this thought, Pang Zhong clenched his fists, and the Force Emperor True Body glowed with intense earth-yellow light. His body, resembling an iron tower, rapidly rubbed against the air, exuding a force that could crush the sky and earth. He began to fully mobilize the elemental energy within his body, earth-yellow light converging and swirling around his hands, facing Ye Wuxue!

Pang Zhong's sudden change made Ye Wuxue's gaze sharpen. The Holy Dao Battle Qi surged within his body, the boundless power provided by the origin of the Holy Battle Law making his aura majestic and overwhelming.

"Force Emperor Ascend Heaven Technique! Force Emperor Subdue Elephant!"

A loud cry echoed in all directions, and a vague, earth-yellow figure slowly appeared behind Pang Zhong, three zhang (about 10 meters) tall, naked from the waist up, fingers spread like iron rods, tearing through the air, descending from above, as if capturing a giant elephant running on the earth, heading straight for Ye Wuxue!
