Chapter 177 Pure Solar Spring
*BOOM BOOM*
Long Ming retreated several steps back as he glanced at the golden statue. Despite its size, its movements were nimble. The saber intent was like a roaring tiger, trying to rip Long Ming into pieces.
" Well, Now it's a tricky opponent." Long Ming panted as his Great Mystic Mountain Physique erupted. Turning his fist as heavy as the mountain, Long Ming took a step and threw his fist.
" Ocean Tearing Fist!"
Using the Nine Ocean Overlapping Fist with his imperial physique, Long Ming's attack made the ground quake.
The figure raised its saber as a golden light shone from it. It was like liquid golden flowing over the saber as it met Long Ming's attack.
*BOOM BOOM BOOM*
The ground quaked cracks spread across like spiderwebs. Both Long Ming and the goldens statue pushed back each other. However, the golden statue got pushed back more than Long Ming.
" Fuck! To think it injured my fist. Long Ming winced in pain as blood dripped from his fist.
Although the golden statue got pushed back pretty far, other than a few cracks on its surface, it didn't suffer much damage.
' When I hit it, I felt like I was punching a wall of diamond. The Metal Intent can increase the sharpness of the attack along with the defense of the body by coating it with tough metal.'
Long Ming grimaced as he saw the statue was getting ready to attack again. Long Ming snorted as he pulled out his Illusiory Lightning and knocked an arrow.
The arrow filled with his Intent of Arrow as it shone with a cold light. The entire bow charged with a terrifying power as dreamy lightning cracked on it.
" Hundred Flower Shot!"
*SWISH SWISH SWISH*
The moment Long Ming released his nock, the arrow disappeared, turning into hundreds of petals charging at the statue. The statue raised its saber as the saber roared.
With a swing, the saber unleashed a sharp and menacing arc of golden light breaking the hundreds of falling petals. However, Long Ming used this chance to shoot more than three arrows.
The statue got pushed back as Long Ming stood from far away and attacked him with arrows. The statue tried to attack him, but Long Ming would simply move swiftly and attack from somewhere else.
' Damn it, This bastard is a tough nut to crack.' Long Ming cursed. But his lips curved as he could see his plan was going alright.
" A bit more… Just a bit more."
The statue kept using its impressive saber techniques to destroy the arrows of Long Ming. As the number of arrows increased, Long Ming took out an Explosive Arrow and shot at the statue.
With the Illusiory Lightning Bow, he used the subtle power of his comprehension of Illusion.
The Explosive Arrow disappeared along with the other arrow shots of the Hundred Flower Shot. The statue didn't notice any anomaly as he did his best to fend off the incoming arrows.
However, the Explosive Arrow suddenly changed its pathway and shot straight towards the right side chest of the statue.
*BOOOOM*
With Long Ming's precision, power of the Illusory Lightning Bow, and Intent of the Arrow, the arrow was like a needle piercing a potato. And the moment it pieced the right side of the chest, it exploded like a bomb.
The statue used the power of Metal Intent to toughen up its body, minimizing the damage from the explosion. However, Long Ming suddenly vanished from his position as he used the power of his Spatial Light Body's instant teleportation.
He appeared right behind the statue as his fist glowed with the tremendous might of Great Mytsic Mountain Physique.
" Nine Ocean Returning To Source!"
The final move of Nine Ocean Overlapping Fist is called Nine Ocean Returning To Source, which is a powerful technique. This attack simply stacks the power of previous attacks, making them overlap more and more.
In the end, it returns the tremendous power back to the source, making the attack more powerful than any of the previous attacks.
The front chest of the statue is already badly damaged. However, Long Ming used all his might and attacked the statue from behind.
A giant mirage of the ocean appeared as waves crashed again and again. The waves merged and turned into a great palm of the ocean, crashing down on the statue.
*BOOM BOOM*
The right shoulder of the statue was completely destroyed as the golden saber flung too far. The statue turned around as it swung its palm.
Long Ming instantly used the teleportation again as he vanished from there, making the attack of the statue hit the empty ground.
" Bastard, You already lost your arm and your weapon. Yet, you want to fight?" Long Ming clenched his fist. But then, his Heavenly Revelation Eyes flickered as he felt an ominous feeling.
The statue raised its hand as he made a move towards Long Ming. Suddenly, twelve gigantic arms made of gold appeared out of thin air as they charged toward Long Ming.
The arms were like the arms of giants, made of pure gold and pulsing with sharp Intent of Metal. Long Ming suddenly took a deep breath as his spiritual qi surged out.
Raising his hand, he envisioned the power of the Seal rune as he slid it down his finger.
" Seal!"
Suddenly, Long Ming felt like his spiritual qi surging like a tidal wave, casting a mysterious power around the statue. Long Ming felt ? of his spiritual qi simply drained.
Yet, the attack on the statue suddenly stopped, like it was frozen in space. The statue seemed to struggle to push forward the attack with all its might.
Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes flashed as he looked at the statue. He could feel the seal won't stay for long. However, this much time was enough for him.
His Raging Storm Wing flapped as his boy shifted and arrived before the head of the statue in the blink of an eye. Long Ming's fist swirled with Fragrant Yin Qi as his Sword Intent erupted.
Petals blossomed as an intoxicating fragrance spread across the air. Long Ming's Frgarnt Yin Qi turned into a ray of sword qi, slicing off the neck of the statue.
Long Ming didn't stop as he used his Great Mystic Mountain Physique and jumped on the headless statue's body.
The moment his physique activated, it was like a hundred million tons of weight crushing on the statue.
The ground quaked as a deep crater formed under Jun Tianyun. The statue was almost broken, but it still maintained its shape.
" Holy shit, What materials are used to craft this golden puppet?" Long Ming wiped his blood and sweat as he looked at the statue.
The moment he climbed out from the crater, he saw the mist above the summit slowly vanishing along with the tremendous pressure around Long Ming.
It implied that Long Ming had passed all the trials of of Flaming Mountain.
Long Ming panted as he sat on a stone. He took out a few medicinal pills and popped them into his mouth, recovering his spiritual qi and true qi.
' It looks like directly using the power of the Seal rune costs a huge amount of spiritual qi. I am afraid if not for my powerful spiritual qi and Eternal True Spirit Technique, my soul would have suffered a backlash.'
Long Ming sighed as he looked at the summit. Stretching his body, he slowly walked toward the summit.
The moment he reached the summit, he suddenly felt a breeze of fresh air hitting his nose. With the sweet scent of natural fresh air along with the taste of victory, Long Ming simply gazed at the distance.
The sun was slolwy rising from the eastern sky, like an orb of heavenly flame soaring to the sky, making the world filled with radiance.
Long Ming explored the summit and saw a small pool of water. The water was simply strange. It looked like a pool of water, but he could see the flowing flames inside the water.
It didn't look like magma, just flames flickering inside the water.
" The one who passed the trial of Flaming Mountain, you are awarded with the chance to quench your body in the Pure Solar Spring. It shall refine your physique, increasing both your qi cultivation and body cultivation realm."
The voice echoed in Long Ming's mind like a mechanical voice, without any emotions.
" Well, I guess they even recorded a nice instruction manual here, huh?" Long Ming chuckled as he looked at the Pure Solar Spring.
Suddenly, he thought about something as he took off his clothes. Taking out the Supreme Scripture of Myriad Physiqiues, Long Ming started to looking if he could cultivate a new physique.
However, the information contained in the scripture was immense. Long Ming did his best to scan the information and get the one which is useful for him.
Long Ming took a deep breath as he jumped into the water. The moment his body touched the water, his expression changed.
" Fuck! It's so hot!"
