#708 - Fierce Battle
The time within this small pocket dimension is only six shichen (approximately twelve hours). If he continues to dodge and hide for these six shichen, and Tian Ku is unable to kill him, then the small pocket dimension will fall apart and collapse on its own.
From this, it's clear that Li Chengfeng's actions are not as simple as they appear on the surface.
His mind is cunning like a demon, and he has already seen through the flaws of this small pocket dimension.
The reason he hasn't made a move yet is that he's waiting for the right moment, searching for an opportunity to strike a fatal blow.
Now, with the Ancient Demon Art inheritance, Tian Ku's strength is indeed different from what it once was. He is essentially starting his cultivation from scratch, and his techniques and power have not yet fully merged. Therefore, he can only display a sliver more strength than an ordinary Half-Step God Transformation cultivator.
During the battle, his strength hasn't been fully displayed because maintaining a illusory space like this small pocket dimension to trap Li Chengfeng is exhausting his mana.
This is also the reason why the small pocket dimension can only last for six shichen.
While dodging Tian Ku's attacks, Li Chengfeng doesn't forget to provoke him, saying, "Old thing, is this all you've got? Is this the extent of your abilities? If so, you might as well commit suicide early to save me the time of having to do it myself.
I'm only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and you're already at the Half-Step God Transformation realm, yet you're still acting like a sissy, without any of the demeanor of an ancient demon.
I think you're not an inheritor of the Ancient Demon Art at all, just a fake, a self-righteous waste."
As Li Chengfeng taunts and curses, he moves around, his Wings of Space constantly flapping, making him like lightning in battle, elusive and unpredictable.
Suddenly, he gains a special insight into space. This insight makes his speed even more elusive, like streaks of lightning constantly flickering around Tian Ku, the inheritor of the Ancient Demon Art, making it difficult for Tian Ku to grasp him.
Hearing this, Tian Ku's anger flares up. He roars and increases the intensity of his attacks, trying to trap Li Chengfeng to death within the pocket dimension.
However, Li Chengfeng relies on his special understanding of space and his profound foundation to defuse Tian Ku's attacks time and time again, leaving Tian Ku helpless.
In this battle, Li Chengfeng not only demonstrates his extraordinary talent and foundation in battle but also successfully disrupts Tian Ku's mind through provocation and taunts, gaining himself more chances of victory.
Tian Ku, the inheritor of the Ancient Demon Art, is enraged beyond measure, so angry that smoke almost comes out of his orifices. He hisses coldly but is helpless.
He directly uses the Prosper-Decline Finger, two streams of Yin and Yang power heading straight for Li Chengfeng.
However, Li Chengfeng's speed is even faster. He disappears with a few flashes, leaving only afterimages behind.
At first, there is one afterimage, one lightning bolt, then it becomes two afterimages, two lightning bolts, dazzling the eyes.
Li Chengfeng has dabbled in most of the spells that Tian Ku, the inheritor of the Ancient Demon Art, uses. Even with techniques like the Flourishing and Decaying Sky-Reaching Skill, Tian Ku's execution is not as powerful as Li Chengfeng's.
Li Chengfeng unifies all techniques and has an unusually sensitive talent for spells and techniques. He quickly discovers the other party's shortcomings, so he dodges with great precision.
Tian Ku, the inheritor of the Ancient Demon Art, begins to sweat on his forehead. He suddenly realizes, is it a bit too early to confront Li Chengfeng now?
Because the ancient demon's corpse is at the most crucial moment of refinement, he should be focusing all his efforts on that, not entangled with Li Chengfeng here.
At this moment, he recalls Xue Qingchen's former instructions.
Xue Qingchen once warned him not to act impulsively at this time, and not to go looking for trouble with Li Chengfeng.
Because the news of Li Chengfeng destroying the Blood Clan had already reached Xue Qingchen.
However, Xue Qingchen only smiled and said, "As expected of Li Chengfeng, the person I have my eye on. Not bad, not bad. He certainly has some guts."
Then, he said to Tian Ku, the inheritor of the Ancient Demon Art, "This time you go to the Evil Spirit Space and reach an agreement with them.
Do not blindly go looking for trouble with Li Chengfeng.
I think his next target should be the Qi Kingdom's royal family, but that doesn't matter. As long as it doesn't interfere with our grand plan, you can do whatever you want."
Tian Ku, the inheritor of the Ancient Demon Art, was indeed a little unconvinced in his heart. As long as he could master the Zhi Inheritance, he wouldn't have to act according to Xue Qingchen's wishes anymore.
However, now he has directly confronted Li Chengfeng due to a twist of fate.
At that time, he was discussing the summoning ritual with the Skeleton Hermit when Li Chengfeng suddenly broke into the place. This made him angry for a moment, and he recklessly engaged in a fierce battle with Li Chengfeng.
Now it seems that he shouldn't have been so impulsive, revealing his tracks and trump cards.
Because if he can't catch Li Chengfeng this time, it will be even harder to catch him next time.
Li Chengfeng is a very cautious kid. Once he escapes, he will definitely hide even deeper, or even flee far away, making it impossible for them to find him again. This is the result he fears the most.
So, Tian Ku gritted his teeth and said, "Li Chengfeng, is this all the courage you have? Can't you act like a man and face me head-on?
Rumors outside say that you are an old devil, decisive in killing, burying tens of thousands of people alive, and cultivating a tower of human heads. In my opinion, it's just exaggeration. You're just a cowardly bug!"
However, Li Chengfeng remains unmoved. Not only is he not angry, but he also chuckles and says, "I see that your techniques are only so-so. If you want to obtain the Zhi Inheritance, you can only do so through battle.
Then, I will let you see what the Li Inheritance is!"
Li Chengfeng has rarely used the Li Inheritance, but this time is different.
He possesses the complete version of the Li Inheritance and the power cultivation methods of the Zhi Inheritance. The combined power of these two inheritances is even stronger than the combined power of the Zhi Inheritance Spirit and the Li Inheritance Spirit he encountered before.
Although he hasn't started cultivating yet, his foundation is very solid because he possesses Ancestral Blood, which makes his cultivation method completely different from that of humans.
Human cultivators usually cultivate through meditation and comprehending the heavens and earth; martial artists must also comprehend the heavens and earth and strive for the Dao with strength.
However, the ancient demons' cultivation method is naked plundering. They comprehend in flying, escaping, and fighting, elevate in battle, and can only improve through battle. They are truly war-loving elements.
Now, Li Chengfeng is forced into a desperate situation, and a flash of inspiration suddenly appears in his mind.
He thinks, why not take this opportunity to cultivate the true Ancient Demon Sacred Art, borrow the Ancient Demon Art inheritance, then refine it, and then add the Li Inheritance, integrating and mastering them, so that his strength will definitely increase greatly.
Even if he can't advance to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, he can still improve several times, and may even reach the realm of a One-Tribulation Ancient Demon.
Thinking of this, Li Chengfeng suddenly changes his moves. The meaning of space becomes subtle. He is no longer quickly dodging, but begins a wonderful combination of evasion and commitment.
A special power erupts from his body. It is the power of the ancient demon, with a hint of strength. The Li Inheritance and the Zhi Inheritance condense with each other, forming a brand new force.
