Cultivation! My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration

Chapter 136: Battling a Foundation Establishment Cultivator

The movement technique that Jiang Li cultivated had always existed for the sake of better controlling the speed of Armored Horse Divine Travel.

Now that he used it, Jiang Li really transformed into a stream of light that pounced towards his opponent.

Clang!

Amidst the tearing sound, the fist wrapped in chains collided fiercely with the opponent’s crimson saber.

Instantly, flames erupted.

Jiang Li’s fist was firmly blocked by the terrifying spiritual qi saber. It poured forward with a tremendous force, but it still failed to succeed in front of the saber.

His opponent was not a body cultivator, and even his Foundation Establishment strength was still suppressed by Jiang Li.

However, not only was the other party at the Foundation Establishment realm, but he was also one of the top experts among the Foundation Establishment disciples.

With the support of powerful spiritual qi, the difference in physical strength was still unable to crush the other party.

Under the effect of the other party’s Dao Foundation and the eruption of an even higher quality spiritual qi, Jiang Li’s terrifying fist force was completely nullified. Then, he waved his saber, holding Jiang Li’s fist and drawing it to the side.

Since this law-enforcement disciple was able to enter the top 11, he naturally could not be weak. He assessed Jiang Li’s punches and discovered that his move had more force than technique. His punch did not leave any room to maneuver, so he used the power diversion technique to make Jiang Li lose his center of gravity.

Sure enough, with this maneuver, Jiang Li’s fist immediately lost its direction, and it brushed past his side before crashing into the arena. The terrifying force of the fist plowed out a long gorge in front of him.

Taking advantage of Jiang Li’s unstable footing, a wisp of blade light attacked Jiang Li’s back the next moment.

The blade light was sharp and fierce, and once he was struck by it, he would be unable to use the defense of the Overlord Body Art while attacking. At that time, even with Jiang Li’s physique, there would still be a hole in his back.

Boom!

The blade light struck the ground, and the blazing flames broke a large amount of bricks, causing the floating platform to become even more damaged.

However, such a powerful strike was unable to hit Jiang Li.

When the flames dissipated, Jiang Li’s current figure was like a swimming snake as he twisted at an enormous angle to the side, avoiding the slash in a split second.

This was the flexible joint given to him by the Dragon Tortoise Blood Tattoo. Although it was not displayed on the interface, this small ability could still play a huge role at the critical moment.

Seeing that his attack did not hit, the Foundation Establishment disciple raised his saber and slashed again.

However, Jiang Li, who had already recovered and adjusted his state, was not afraid in the slightest. He faced the continuous blade lights and smashed out countless fist shadows.

In an instant, the two clashed, resulting in a rain of metal collision sounds.

The crimson saber and Jiang Li’s rapidly brandishing fists were so concentrated that only afterimages could be seen.

They tried to counter speed with even more speed. The explosive spiritual qi spread out like waves with the two of them as the center.

The area under their feet was enduring heavy pressure as spiderweb-like cracks quickly spread out.

This was originally a ring prepared for the battle between Qi Refinement realm disciples. The quality and durability were lacking.

Under the impact of the waves of higher and higher spiritual qi, the strengthened stone slab on the surface was lifted up like a piece of paper, and next was the more fragile stone base below.

This was not like a battle between a saber and a fist. It was more like two hurricanes that had met and were fighting for authority.

In the battle, Jiang Li’s strength was slightly stronger. The Dragon Imprisoning Lock that was wrapped around his fists was also indestructible.

However, the spiritual qi quality of Foundation Establishment realm disciple was even higher. As he waved his hands, saber lights and flames covered the sky and earth.

For a time, the ferocious attacks were evenly matched.

Swoosh!

Jiang Li’s fist shattered a blade light, but the shattered sharp qi still drew shallow blood traces on his face.

From time to time, there would be a few stinging scratches on his body, but they would quickly disappear with the help of several healing effects.

In this moment of continuous and intense attacks, Jiang Li felt an unprecedented pressure.

Before the constantly dissipating Foundation Establishment spirit fire, even if Jiang Li had a certain degree of fire resistance, he was still baked by the high temperature until his mouth was dry and his hair curled.

The high temperature increased the intensity of his movement. Large beads of sweat constantly appeared on his body, but they would immediately evaporate under the high temperature, only forming thick white frost on his body.

While Jiang Li felt uncomfortable, the Foundation Establishment realm law-enforcement disciple on the other side also felt terrible.

Jiang Li’s fist was so powerful that he did not expect it. The saber in his hand collided with the fist consecutively. Not only did he not gain the slightest advantage, he was instead repelled by the enormous force until his palm split open and his arm went numb.

It was clearly a single-handed blade, but he was now holding it with both hands. Moreover, the soreness and numbness coming from his arms made him nearly drop the blade several times.

Now, he seriously suspected that this junior brother was not human, how could a human really have such exaggerated brute force?!

This was different from the usual practice sparring with his fellow disciples. At this moment, both sides were already fighting seriously. If he was not careful, he might be heavily injured.

At the edge of the stage, an elder was already floating in the air. If anything happened, he would immediately save them.

Bang!

Right at this moment, the ground beneath Jiang Li’s feet suddenly collapsed. Instantly, there was a slight imbalance, causing his movements to involuntarily slow down. A gap appeared in the net of fist shadows that he was brandishing.

When the law-enforcement disciple saw the gap, his eyes immediately lit up. Flames wrapped around the saber, and he directly slashed at the exposed gap.

Jiang Li was shocked when he saw this, yet it was already slightly too late to resist!

He immediately made up his mind. As the Wood Armor Technique covered his entire body, he circulated his Overlord Body Art at full force. Then, he controlled the power of the Armored Horse Divine Travel together and ruthlessly collided with his opponent.

The saber first came into contact with the wooden armor. Fire attribute spiritual qi was the key to subduing wood. Coupled with the fact that the quality of the wood armor technique was very low, even if Jiang Li used his spiritual qi that was higher than his cultivation level, it would still be broken in an instant.

However, in this short period of time, Jiang Li’s entire body suddenly seemed as if it was made of solid copper, and it became motionless.

Pew!

The crimson saber slashed onto Jiang Li’s shoulder, and the sharp edge still broke through his skin. The scorching saber began to burn his flesh.

However, the expression of that Foundation Establishment law-enforcement disciple changed in an instant. His saber had only entered the flesh for an inch before it stopped moving.

Under the effect of the Overlord Body Art, Jiang Li focused all of his strength at that spot and blocked the saber.

In the next moment, a cold smile appeared on Jiang Li’s face. A huge momentum suddenly erupted from his feet, and his entire body shot out, directly colliding with the body of the Foundation Establishment law-enforcement disciple who was a foot away.

At the instant of collision, Jiang Li’s body still maintained the toughness of the Overlord Body Art. Under the collision, the figure of the law-enforcement disciple’s body was overlapped by Jiang Li’s.

He only felt that his internal organs were all shifting and entangled. Every part of his body hurt.

Then, he flew out.

That law-enforcement disciple was sent flying far away. He rolled for a long time before finally stopping.

Only then did Jiang Li undo the Overlord Body Art. He held the burning area on his shoulder, grimacing in pain.

He released the chain in his hand and grabbed one end of the Dragon Imprisoning Lock. He used it as a whip and threw it at the other party.

If he did not deal the finishing blow now, when would he have another chance?

However, as expected, a few saber flashes flew out and struck the Dragon Imprisoning Lock again. The other party still had the strength to counterattack!

Foundation Establishment cultivators had their Dao Foundation. Even if they did not cultivate their bodies, their bodies were superior to Qi Refinement realm disciples.

When he was struck by Jiang Li, he only broke a few bones and bled a few hundred milliliters of blood. His spiritual qi and internal breath were in chaos, and his Dao Foundation was slightly damaged… only.

However, from the few saber qi he brandished, it was clearly much weaker than before.

Jiang Li held his shoulder and walked towards him again. The effect of the [Golden Wind Jade Dew] was indeed astonishing. It was as if spring water filled with vitality was slowly flowing around his body.

The pain in his shoulder was quickly relieved. However, the other party’s saber had a high temperature and was quite vicious. It burned a large area of Jiang Li’s wound, making it impossible to recover easily.

Jiang Li gritted his teeth and took out a special cutting knife from his waist pocket. He sliced off the burnt flesh with a few swooshes and directly debrided himself on the spot.

Although Jiang Li’s body also had the pain suppression status, in order to maintain the sensitivity of his senses, the pain suppression effect was only average.

As for this self-mutilation, it still hurt so much that his eyes turned red and he gritted his teeth.

After the debridement, the wound on his shoulder began to quickly heal. However, the anger that Jiang Li felt because of the pain was not so easily eliminated.

“I have a fist technique that I would like Senior Brother to evaluate!”

The Foundation Establishment law-enforcement disciple was holding a long saber and coughing out blood when he saw Jiang Li walking towards him with red eyes.

The internal organs in his body were still twitching from the pain, causing him to have some trauma towards this freakish junior brother.

Especially Jiang Li’s furious gaze, it terrified him to the point he instinctively wanted to flee, but he had just taken two steps back when the self-esteem in his heart forced his feet to firmly take root on the spot.

He was a Foundation Establishment disciple who was close to 30 years old, but Jiang Li was not even 14 years old now. He was more than double of Jiang Li’s age. If he was still frightened to the point of fleeing, then how could he still stay in the Law Enforcement Hall in the future!

Most importantly, he glanced at the beautiful figures flying in the air not far from the ring.

Right there, the female cultivators of the Rejuvenation Hall were still watching. If he were to be chased away by a junior brother in the Qi Refinement realm, then his preferential rights in the sect would be completely ruined!

Resisting the intense pain in his chest and abdomen, he took a deep breath and raised the crimson saber again.

“Come! For the dignity of the Law Enforcement Hall! I won’t lose!”

Jiang Li walked over step by step and wiped off a scab on his shoulder, revealing skin that was no different from other places besides being slightly pale.

After his injuries were healed, a violent force once again filled his entire body. Jiang Li’s figure flashed like lightning, and he let out an explosive sound as he charged towards his opponent again.

His heavy fists were accumulating power, just like at the beginning of the battle.

That disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall still wanted to use the long saber to block Jiang Li’s heavy fist. However, Jiang Li’s fist seemed to be a deterrent and was unwilling to smash out.

The gaze of the law enforcement disciple was drawn over by Jiang Li’s fist, and only when it approached did he notice that Jiang Li had suddenly raised his leg and fiercely stabbed his foot forward.

Could anyone explain why Jiang Li’s mysterious fist technique was unleashed with his foot?

Clearly, the consequence of being one step slower was almost fatal.

Bang!

Jiang Li ruthlessly kicked his foot into the abdomen.

The disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall suffered a heavy blow to his abdomen, and his entire body flew up into the air. A terrifying force penetrated his body and blasted a small hole in the clothes on his back. A moment later, his entire body transformed into a shooting star that flew out of the ring.

After this heavy blow, even if the other party could still stand up, he absolutely did not have the strength to face Jiang Li again.

Jiang Li heaved a sigh of relief and finally relaxed a little.

This disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall was indeed very strong.

In terms of winning smoothly this time, there was indeed a portion of luck involved.

If not for the other party’s initial contempt, allowing Jiang Li to seize the opportunity to directly take out the other party’s sword-shaped artifact, Jiang Li might have fallen into an unsightly disadvantage in this battle.

If that artifact had not been damaged and had been waiting to attack covetously, this Foundation Establishment senior brother would have had the ability to fight him head-on.

While the intense battle was ongoing, the artifact could suddenly attack from behind. Even Jiang Li did not have a good solution to deal with it.

Or perhaps, if he had not created a second parallel mind two days ago, his control of his body would not have been as perfect as now.

The speed at which he used the Overlord Body Art to form a defense would definitely decrease drastically. He would also be unable to move while defending with all his might.

At the critical moment, so long as there was an extra second of delay, Jiang Li might suffer a heavy blow when he lost his balance.

Not to mention counterattacking, in the situation where he did not use the Yin Burial Coffin, he might have already lost.

On the other side, the Foundation Establishment law-enforcement disciple who was sent flying was caught by an elder and sent to the bottom for treatment. He had some external injuries, and after the miraculous healing by the disciples of the Rejuvenation Hall, perhaps he could try to challenge the other arenas again.

As for Jiang Li, he did not have any injuries on his body, and his expenditure had only slightly exceeded the recovery rate. He only needed to take a few breaths to recover.

However, in the eyes of outsiders, it was impossible for his body to be intact after fighting a Foundation Establishment cultivator who had surpassed his cultivation level.

Thus, a beautiful figure flew up into this messy arena, and Jiang Li received the treatment of an injured person.

Jiang Li realized that the person was someone he knew. He waved his hand and greeted her, “Senior Sister Qi Yu.”

This female cultivator from the Rejuvenation Hall was proficient in all kinds of healing techniques to begin with. When she was free, she would even give him and her hall sisters a try and even achieve the miraculous effect of moisturizing their skin and transforming their bodies.

Therefore, the fairies of the Rejuvenation Hall were all moist, soft, and gentle. If one approached them, they could smell the natural fragrance coming from their bodies.

As long as a female cultivator’s foundation was not bad to the point of terrorizing the heavens and earth, if they were treated like this for a few months, it would definitely be the effect of having severe beautification.

On the other hand, this Senior Sister Qi Yu was even more outstanding, and she was on the level of being a crane in a flock of chickens amongst the female cultivators of the Rejuvenation Hall.

Every time she came to the Demon Vanquishing Hall to be a referee, those fellow disciples would attack each other especially harshly.

The disciples in the sect who had designs on her could definitely line up hand in hand from the entrance of the Rejuvenation Hall to the outer sect.

If not for the fact that this body of his was born a few years later, Jiang Li might have lost more than ten kilograms of weight because of her.

“Junior Brother Jiang Li, well done! Are you injured anywhere? Senior Sister promises to make you lively and healthy.”

Senior Sister Qi Yu surrounded Jiang Li’s bare upper body and rubbed it left and right. That gentle smile made Jiang Li’s kidneys involuntarily twitch twice.

He hurriedly tightened his belt, having almost become full of vigor.

“Cough cough, Senior Sister, do you have water? I’m dying of thirst.”

Jiang Li shifted his attention. He was really thirsty. This was the bad thing about fighting with fire-attribute spiritual roots cultivators. When one was hot, it was easy to sweat. If one fought for a longer time, they might be roasted dry.

“Are you really not injured? Senior Sister saw you get slashed just now.”

Senior Sister Qi Yu handed a bottle of spirit spring water to Jiang Li, and then she went forward to check Jiang Li’s shoulder.

In the place where he should have been injured, she only found a faint line that could barely be seen in the bright light.

She looked all over his body again, but she did not find any wounds. For a moment, there was actually no place for her to use her skills.

In the end, Senior Sister Qi Yu could only use a cleansing technique on Jiang Li.

The cool water attribute spiritual qi washed over Jiang Li’s body. In a short few seconds, it cleaned all the stains and salt crystals on his body.

Jiang Li even felt a stream of spiritual qi enter his mouth and nose and spin around, helping him brush his teeth.

[Affected by the cleansing technique, Added Status: Body Cleaning.]

[Body Cleaning: Clean away dust, oil, colored spots, blood, and other ninety-nine stubborn stains. Ensure that both the skin and clothes are clean. Duration: 5 seconds] (? +)

Under the effect of the cleansing technique, Jiang Li’s body seemed to have been rubbed in the bathhouse for two hours, becoming clean and relaxed.

However, Jiang Li looked at that status and fell into deep thought.

“Senior Sister Qi Yu, can you use more spiritual qi to give me the strongest cleansing technique you know?”
