Chapter 256: Chapter 154: Twelve True Immortals, Seizing Heaven to Restore Spiritual Energy

Gu Shanhai saw an old man dressed in luxurious armor, lying on a large bed without any guard up, his breathing very even.

Seeing this, Gu Shanhai didn’t hesitate to make his move as the other party was deep in slumber.

He got on top and pinned the other party down.

The elder’s eyes suddenly snapped open, triggered by the attack.

The man was only asleep, not dead.

"You are... uh~" The other managed instinctively to begin a question.

But who was Gu Shanhai? He immediately face-slapped the elder, nearly knocking out most of his teeth in his peak state.

But a Martial Arts True Immortal is a Martial Arts True Immortal after all, his face truly tough, possibly also having cultivated some sort of Horizontal Refining Technique, as Gu Shanhai’s hand trembled after that hard slap.

Luckily, this preemptive strike was very effective. This man being one of the weakest among the Martial Arts True Immortals, was dazed from the first move.

But the opponent was only confused for a moment before he quickly reacted and struck back at Gu Shanhai.

Bang~

Gu Shanhai returned with a punch, meeting the other’s punch head-on.

Boom~

The cave dwelling exploded from their clash, creating a huge void.

"Ha, you only managed to withstand one punch by burning your lifespan. So, how much life do you have left to squander?" The elder’s tone was slightly annoyed, obviously mocking Gu Shanhai for recklessly challenging his power with his own life.

"Maybe, a lot?" Gu Shanhai replied, then suddenly launched a sneak attack, but it was easily blocked by the opponent.

"Such methods, I didn’t even use when I was young... use... use..." The elder disdained after blocking Gu Shanhai’s sneak attack and was about to retaliate and teach Gu Shanhai a lesson when he suddenly felt a terrifying current of electricity piercing through his body, catching even a strong Martial Arts True Immortal off guard.

"Shock Thunder·Spring Thunderstorm!"

Gu Shanhai unleashed the Azure Dragon in his hand, chaining the moves together.

"Heavenly Spin Thunder Turn!"

"Thunderous Hell!"

"Winter Thunderclap!"

"Furious Thunder..."

He managed to link only four moves before using the Azure Dragon to lash the elder, injuring him all over. During the fifth move, the elder hastily retreated, preferring to suffer injuries as a cost.

"Good, good, good, I hadn’t imagined the world had such talent, to see such a genius emerge today." The elder’s voice was dark, his words sounded like praise, but he looked as if he wanted to hack Gu Shanhai to death.

Mainly because he had just woken up and wasn’t at his peak, which is why he was pinned down and beaten up immediately upon encounter. At his peak, he certainly wouldn’t have fallen into such a state.

"Modest, modest," Gu Shanhai replied, but in practice, he readied the Azure Dragon and launched another wave of sneak attacks.

Even though it was blocked again, the opponent was clearly adept, but after learning from the previous lesson, he was also prepared for Gu Shanhai’s ensuing thunderous power.

But Gu Shanhai wasn’t a one-trick pony, so he moved in close to execute a "Butterfly Through Flowers" move.

"How... how is this possible?"

The elder couldn’t defend himself and even had his chest pierced by Gu Shanhai, who then grabbed hold of his heart.

"Don’t move, a Martial Arts True Immortal might not die without a heart, but trying to get a new one in this era is as good as wishful thinking," Gu Shanhai said in a deep voice.

"Even if you kill me, it’s nothing more than a dying struggle." The elder’s eyes shone fiercely. He had been through a lot and knew all too well: better to be a shattered jade than an intact tile.

Being held hostage by Gu Shanhai would be the true end for him.

So, disregarding his heart in Gu Shanhai’s grip, he smacked his palms towards Gu Shanhai’s head.

The next moment, Gu Shanhai ripped out the elder’s heart and crushed it, while the elder smashed his skull, the two seeming to have traded places.

However, there was no choice for both of them. Once their dispute had escalated, Gu Shanhai couldn’t pull away, as the elder forcibly clamped down on Gu Shanhai’s hand with the wound in his chest. This was a fight to the death.

As Gu Shanhai pulled away, naturally, he couldn’t dodge the other’s strike.

"I can live without a heart, how can you live without a head?" The elder looked at the heart crushed in Gu Shanhai’s hand and the headless body, his cold laugh filled with scorn.

Crack~

A Azure Dragon instantly pierced the elder’s throat, and then they saw Gu Shanhai’s headless body’s neck wriggling with blood, flesh, and bone. In a moment, a new head grew out.

"Of course I can live. I wander the world depending on being a tough nut that can’t be steamed soft, boiled soft, pounded flat, fried apart—a banging copper pea!" Gu Shanhai pulled out the Azure Dragon, which was indeed useful, truly worthy of being a companion spirit formed from the Green Knight’s botanical series talent.

With a massive life force boost, it remained sharp enough.

"You..." The elder clasped his throat, stepping back three paces with disbelief on his face. Regenerating a head was something he could just about manage, but only in his peak condition. Yet there stood Gu Shanhai, casually growing a new one – it was outrageous.

"In the eyes of others, ’separate action’ is a metaphor, but for me, it truly means I can separate," Gu Shanhai stated seriously to his opponent.

The recent move had drained the elder’s spirit, strength, and soul, further weakening his powers.

Heart smashed, throat pierced, both vital spots severely damaged, and the elder was almost unable to control his True Qi.
