Chapter 917: The ascetic monk
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Nine Snakes, Fa Yuan.
Obviously, Su Hao would have never thought that the legendary Nine Snakes organization would find him. Plus, instead of sending a large number of people, only one man came.
To be more precise, it was a leader.
The ninth head.
That monk’s one sentence had exposed too much information. The self-proclaimed ninth head should be derived from the snake with nine heads, and the leaders are named first head, second head, etc. This monk should be ranked at the lowest, but whether or not it was determined based on strength was unknown.
Su Hao’s expression didn’t change at all, but countless thoughts were flashing within his mind.
Danger!
This was his first impression coming from this monk.
Up until now, the number of people that could make him feel wary wasn’t a lot. As for this monk, the faint aura emitted from his body revealed his identity, a grade S talent esper currently in the world realm! Obviously, there weren’t many espers with grade S talent that managed to enter the world realm. Su Hao tried to create a model to analyze him but failed.
The power of the original talent had basically turned into Rule Force, and it would be impossible to build an origin model out of it.
“I’m unable to see through him.”
Su Hao frowned slightly.
Although Model Analysis was powerful, there was no solution against these world espers. His little Rule Force wasn’t enough to build a model out of Rule Force.
“Is this brother trying to copy this poor monk’s talent?” The monk sounded astonished.
“You overthinking it.” Su Hao continued with his poker face.
“Being able to copy the talent of five core members of Nine Snakes was indeed evil. This brother’s talent must be related to copying. However, as a world esper, why the need to do this?”
The monk looked so merciful, “This brother, it’s better to follow this poor monk away.”
Su Hao’s eyes narrowed subconsciously.
This monk obviously had undergone an investigation of his strength before coming here. This monk should be above level one of the world realm; otherwise, he won’t dare to be this bold.
This monk came at the right time; he wished to see the strength of Nine Snakes.
“If you beat me, I will leave with you.” Su Hao smirked. Since he couldn’t analyze with his Model Analysis, he was too lazy to exchange words any longer with this guy.
“Amitabha.” That monk folded both palms together as a ritual, “Then, this poor monk would have to offend you.”
Boom!
Light rays circulated.
In an instant, Su Hao had brilliant light coming out from both his hands. The gloves formed with Rule Force were in place, and the Cloud-stepping Shoes on his feet were worn like any ordinary shoes. With a wave of his right hand, a gorgeous blue lightsaber appeared.
As his figure floated in mid-air…
Su Hao immediately made his move.
“Mountain Breaker!”
“Water Split!”
What Su Hao attacked were those two origin techniques that had accompanied him. As the Xinghe Sword in his hands bloomed, those two moves were able to produce terrifying strength. Not to mention, there was another move of Su Hao’s that followed them, “Dark Moon Dream Destroyer!”
Buzz~
A dark moon appeared.
This combination of moves was so skillful that there was almost no pause in between. Within the darkness, there were also a few Shadowless God Needles that Su Hao secretly mixed in!
“Amitabha.”
With a Buddhist chant, that monk stood up.
When Su Hao thought that he was about to make some big move, he was surprised to find that this monk just stayed in place and completely ignored all of his attacks.
“Could it be the undefeated golden body?”
Su Hao was curious.
A monk is a magical profession. After the era of origin ability, undergoing mutation, this golden body would be even more unmatched.
Boom!
Boom! Boom!
A few dull sounds echoed.
Under Su Hao’s amazed look, all of his attacks hit the target! Whether it was the Shadowless God Needle or the dark moon, all of his attacks bombarded the monk. That monk got stained in blood as he was blasted away. Soon, he stood up helplessly and stood still.
“Damn.”
Su Hao froze.
What is this?
Does this monk plan to convert him?
“Amitabha.”
The monk uttered another Buddhist phrase, and a rich golden light flashed around him. The injuries on his body were instantly healed. Then, he actually charged at Su Hao directly. Su Hao sneered and raised his sword to resist.
The monk didn’t seem to be strong as Su Hao completely dominated the fight in minutes!
With Su Hao’s current strength, it wasn’t a difficult feat to go against any ordinary world esper. Not to forget, this monk actually competed with him using his physical body?
Wasn’t that courting one’s own death?!
Boom!
Boom!
Both fists and feet intersected each other.
Su Hao had the absolute advantage!
Punch by punch, the monk got beaten more and more, and one could see his bruised face swollen in a moment. As for Su Hao’s Xinghe Sword, it caused even more scars on the monk’s body. This monk’s strength wasn’t bad, but he was just at the level of an ordinary world esper. In front of Su Hao, he simply couldn’t resist.
However, Su Hao frowned more and more tightly.
Something was amiss.
The strength displayed by this monk wasn’t right.
The first point, no matter how many times he increased his strength, he still couldn’t kill this monk! In other words, even though the monk was at an absolute disadvantage, even when he had been on the edge of life and death a few times, this monk won’t die no matter how Su Hao attacked. Every time, it would always be the difference of a few centimeters.
The second point was the issue with the monk’s talent.
The might of Rule Force lies in its essence. Su Hao didn’t forget about this basic fact. Thus, his Rule Force couldn’t exert its full force, but that didn’t prevent him from knowing the might of Rule Force, especially during his trip through Taihu Territory. He had seen it many times, but the essence of this monk’s Rule Force had yet to appear.
Now, the only power of the monk’s Rule Force displayed was receiving a beating and healing.
Could his Rule Force be related to healing?
Is he planning to make Su Hao tire to death?
Su Hao’s attacks became slower and slower. Before the power of this monk’s Rule Force was exposed, he only maintained his current strength and no longer went one step further as if he had reached his limit.
Boom!
Boom!
Su Hao was still beating the monk like a mad man.
It was still the same absolute suppression!
Since the current strength could suppress this monk, he didn’t need to increase his strength in order to kill the monk. It looked as if he wanted to kill this monk and made a great effort, but he had reached his limit and failed to kill his monk helplessly. He wanted to see what this monk was planning to do.
“Die for me!”
Su Hao’s anger surged as if he was extremely angry at the monk’s stubbornness.
Mountain Breaker!
Water Split!
Dark Moon Dream Destroyer!
Shadowless God Needle!
In fact, Su Hao had already used all of his strength. With the help of Cloud-stepping Shoes, his strength was even more frightening. Each foot of his weighed more than ten thousand pounds. The strength displayed by him had reached the peak of level one world realm. However, that still couldn’t kill this monk.
After another few minutes of confrontation, this monk seemed to have finally determined Su Hao’s strength.
Boom!
Su Hao hit him once again, and the monk’s flesh and blood could be seen falling apart as if he might die at any moment, but he still managed to maintain a ray of vitality. Golden light flashed, and the monk’s body quickly healed. Once again, he crawled up with a grunt and looked at Su Hao. This time, it was still the same endless killing intent emitted out from his body.
“Ascetic monk, Fa Yuan. Sorry for offending you.”
Boom!
That monk moved instantly.
Golden light flashed, and a horrifying force pressed against Su Hao. Su Hao also directed a punch at the same time. However, he still felt a huge force coming, and his entire body got blasted away. It was actually further than when Fa Yuan got blasted away.
How could this be?
Su Hao got up.
Although there was no serious injury, that moment earlier was pretty embarrassing. Looking at the monk who was standing still, Su Hao seemed to have thought of something.
Ascetic monk…
“This is your hidden strength?”
Su Hao’s gaze was extremely cold.
“Only by suffering in this world can we gain blessing.”
The monk had a pale face, but his face was blooming in golden light, and his body’s aura began to climb infinitely, “Fellow brother, please follow this monk away for a walk.”
Boom!
A horrifying aura rushed toward Su Hao. Su Hao could clearly sense an irresistible mysterious force approaching.
Boom!
Su Hao spat out blood.
“What kind of force is this?”
Su Hao was stunned.
“This poor monk will gain as much strength as to how much I suffered pain.”
The monk was as calm as ever.
As the era of origin ability arrived, this world was reborn. In his view, this was the best time for Buddishim to illuminate the world. Look at how many people are waiting to be saved! How many people are suffering? With the appearance of this origin ability, it allowed Buddhism to spread around the world.
This troubled world…
It was simply the best time for Buddha to appear.
With the emergence of his talent, the ascetic monk was even more confident of this point. By enduring pain, he would gain equivalent strength! How fair is my Buddha? In order to popularize Dharma, in order to gain more power, his body was now under the influence of drugs and became extremely sensitive.
Even a normal collision, the pain he felt was akin to cutting his own flesh or giving birth!
He knew that this man in front of him had some strength hidden, but he didn’t care at all! With the pain magnified dozens of times, the power he gained would naturally be multiplied by dozens of times too! Could it be that this man had hidden strength that could be increased dozens of times?
This was totally impossible!
“Amitabha.”
The monk stood still while his entire body was illuminated brightly. It was akin to a phoenix, and his power condensed was comparable to a level three world esper! This power was already far ahead of King of Fire and Yan Tianyu during the time in Taihu Territory.
Boom!
The monk attacked again.
A bright light flashed, and Su Hao was blasted away without a chance to resist!
“Quick, and such power!”
Su Hao was stunned.
This monk, how could he have such terrifying strength?!
No matter how heaven-defying a grade S talent is, there would still be limitations. Even with the aid of Art of Rejuvenation, to directly raise from level one to level three world realm, are you trying to tease me?
This was absolutely impossible!
He gained strength as much as how much pain he endured.
Su Hao remembered this sentence again. However, vaguely, he felt something was amiss.
What was actually happening here?
As a pharmacist, Su Hao quickly thought of a possibility.
“A sensitivity increasing agent?”
