The attack area of the black giant hand completely covered Lou Yi and the other unconscious disciples of the Corpse-Driving Sect, then slowly pressed down like the sky collapsing.

Wang Wenbai was ruthless and intended to capture everyone in one fell swoop!

"Ah!!!"

Xie Zhiyu tried to get up.

But he was horrified to find that the space seemed to have solidified, and he couldn't move at all, having to watch the giant hand fall with no power to resist.

The other unconscious disciples showed expressions of pain under the enormous pressure of the giant hand, some bleeding from their mouths and noses.

But Xie Zhiyu caught a glimpse.

Lou Yi, who seemed to have reached his limit after numerous previous battles, stood up as if nothing happened, looking up at the sky.

"Yin Light Shield."

Lou Yi unleashed all of his spiritual power in one go.

A thick, semi-transparent light shield formed above his head, about a zhang long.

The light shield was covered with hexagonal honeycomb patterns, the intersecting borders glinting with a faint silver light.

The Yin Light Shield at the Great Success Level was not only much thicker than the ones ordinary disciples could cast, it seemed to have other unknown characteristics.

"Black Skin."

Lou Yi continued to operate the Skin Refining Technique, greatly enhancing the density and strength of his muscle fibers, turning the color of his skin to metallic black.

"Petrification."

His talent, Stoneification, transformed Lou Yi's newly reinforced skin to an argent silver color, exponentially increasing its hardness.

"Golden Armor."

His talent, Golden Armor, created a thick, golden cuticle layer outside of his skin.

Based on previous experience, the magic spells of an ordinary peak Qi Refining cultivator couldn't break this cuticle layer!

"Huang Ji."

Finally, Lou Yi released his True Strength, which spread through his body, a thin film of pale purple Qi enveloping the outside of the golden cuticle.

Lou Yi now had immense Qi-Blood with basic strength surpassing 130,000 pounds.

The defense of the pale purple Qi membrane was estimated to be no less than any of his talents!

Five layers of defense gave Lou Yi an intense sense of security.

But against a Foundation Establishment level attack, defense alone was not enough!

Lou Yi raised his head to look at the sky, his expression solemn as he raised his fist.

The best defense is an attack, and he wouldn't let the opponent's spell fall directly on him.

'Snap!'

The Yin Light Shield shattered into pieces during the descent of the black giant hand.

Despite being at the Great Success Level, the Yin Light Shield couldn't withstand a Foundation Establishment spell for even half a moment.

After the Yin Light Shield shattered, Lou Yi had already prepared and was ready to take action!

"Splitting Mountain."

Lou Yi mobilized his Qi-Blood, all the muscle lines throughout his body flowed like water into his right arm, now filled with explosive power weighing 130,000 pounds.

"Dragon Piercing."

He then pointed his True Strength at the Dragon-Pricking Acupoint, his whole body tingling as strength exploded for a second time and overlapped with the first, reaching a more astonishing 160,000 pounds.

"Soul Devouring."

The Blood Pearl formed by the Blood Shadow in the center of his palm, which had devoured the blood of many cultivators, was about three zhang high.

At this moment, it was lavishly used as fuel, instantly elevating Lou Yi's punch to an unprecedented level!

His right fist emitted an astonishingly dazzling light, illuminating the entire underground space like a small purple sun.

All the bones throughout his body creaked under heavy load, seemingly unable to bear such massive strength and suddenly heightened Qi-Blood.

His flesh was stretched to the limit, even showing fine cracks from which blood constantly oozed.

Veins bulging like earthworms erupted from the surface of his skin, twisting and winding around his body, visibly contracting vigorously.

All the pores were violently emitting raging white steam, bathing him in thick fog.

His eyes blazed with bright purple light, burning with fierce fighting spirit and a ruthless determination to fight to the death without bowing!

How about the strike of a Foundation Establishment cultivator; today I will weigh your strength!

'Boom!'

Lou Yi swung his punch, almost shattering the void in front of him.

The air between them was compressed into visible white airflows under overwhelming pressure from two sides, continuously shooting 'boom boom boom' into the distance, punching holes into the rocky walls of the underground space, showing its mighty power.

Lou Yi's strength also surged rapidly under the burning Blood Shadow!

160,000 pounds, 200,000 pounds, 250,000 pounds, 300,000 pounds, 350,000 pounds... 370,000 pounds!

Only around 370,000 pounds did the growth rate suddenly slow down, becoming extremely slow, but this was already terrifying, equivalent to 37 times the limit of a Martial Artist!

In Xie Zhiyu's horrified gaze.

A small but tenacious figure shot up, with enormous inertia and impact, welcomed the semi-transparent black giant hand descending from the sky!

'Boom!'

Under the extreme clash of forces, a huge rippling light membrane formed in the void, dividing the space clearly into black and purple.

In an instant, Xie Zhiyu felt blinded, his ears rang a 'buzz,' unable to hear anything, and soon fell unconscious.

He didn't see Lou Yi and the Foundation Establishment spell's stalemate lasting three to four breaths.

Then, he fell on the downside.

His body deformed sharply in the confrontation, his arm bent, chest caved in, his skin tearing apart leaving bloody wounds all over, riddled with holes.

And then he was ruthlessly slapped down by the black giant hand, 'bang' piercing the stone ground.

But the black giant hand didn't fare much better, having been severely damaged.

Four of its five fingers were broken, exposing a large hole in its palm, filled with cracks, emitting a 'pop crackle' bursting sound ready to shatter.

After Lou Yi was slapped down for four or five breaths, the black semi-transparent giant hand finally couldn't endure and exploded in mid-air, turning into rolling black primordial Qi.

The underground space was instantly swept by strong winds, sand and stones flying, dust filling the air, a scene of the apocalypse.

After all chaos subsided.

Wang Wenbai watched Lou Yi's disappearing human-shaped hole with eyes filled with shock.

Even now, he couldn't believe such a small Qi Cultivation Third Level cultivator could contend with a strike comparable to a Foundation Establishment cultivator using a magic treasure.

Originally his magic treasure could be used three more times, but in this single instance, it suffered severe damage, the golden token shattered, clearly unusable anymore.

"Damn it, losing my magic treasure, count yourself lucky to die cheaply!" Wang Wenbai said hatefully.

He looked at the devastated surroundings, where all Corpse-Driving Sect disciples were unconscious.

And the inheritance reception venue where You Qingyi was seemed protected and hadn't suffered much impact.

Wang Wenbai sneered and approached You Qingyi, taking out a magic sword emitting a gray halo.

"Don't like me, then just die."

He was about to stab the sword into You Qingyi's chest.

Suddenly, with a 'bang,' a shadow shot out from the ground, flying to Wang Wenbai's rear.

Wang Wenbai incredulously turned his head, seeing a familiar figure, covered in blood and injuries but still strong in aura.

"Impossible! How can you be alive! Hahaha... Impossible... Impossible..."

Wang Wenbai's face contorted, laughing and crying, seeming crazy, only betrayed by the stinky 'drip drip' flow beneath him.

"I'm not dead, the dead one will be you."

Lou Yi extended his right hand, pointing at Wang Wenbai, and a purple True Strength burst forth.

'Poof!'

A hollow hole appeared on Wang Wenbai's brow, his eyes filled with unwillingness as he fell back, 'bang' onto the ground, dead beyond dead.

"Finally... It's over." Lou Yi murmured.

Continuously facing the silver-haired youngster, a Foundation Establishment with possession, and Wang Wenbai with a Foundation Establishment magic treasure, made him feel utterly exhausted, almost unable to hold on, luckily they ended.

He walked to the blood-drenched Bi Yaoyao and fed her healing elixir, then began tirelessly saving the other unconscious companions.

"Mmm..."

At this moment, You Qingyi finally opened her eyes, somewhat confusedly looking around, a hint of blue light faintly flashing in her eyes.
