What If I Can't Die? Chapter 31

Chapter 31

Mid-Grade Fire Spirit Root, Are You Surprised Now?

Crack! Crack!

The big-headed ghost bit crazily as iron fragments flew everywhere. In the blink of an eye, only the hilt of the saber was left. Song Shi hurriedly let go of it and casually used his Iron Sand Palm.

He injected all his Spiritual Energy and Genuine Qi into his palm and released them. A circle of scorching flames erupted.

There was a rumble.

It was as if Song Shi had hit a rubber ball, he released his brute force and sent the big-headed ghost flying with a slap.

The big-headed ghost screamed and smashed a hole in the ground. A palm print appeared on its head and its had bones caved in. Smoke was also emitted from the hole.

Song Shi’s palm contained extreme Yang power. Even the big-headed ghost could not withstand it and suffered considerable injuries.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Song Shi panted heavily. He had subconsciously released all his Spiritual Energy and Genuine Qi just now, at this moment, his body was empty.

“Oh no, I have no more Spiritual Energy, only brute force.”

Song Shi realized. Facing the big-headed ghost that rushed back, he punched again and missed.

He forgot this ghost was immune to physical attacks!

“d.a.m.n you, I’ll have Spiritual energy soon!”

He peacefully accepted his death and was directly killed.

Three seconds later, Song Shi revived on the spot.

Looking at the big-headed ghost with a broken tongue, a missing scalp,and a sunken head, he smiled.

“If you don’t have a saber, I’ll just slap you to death. If one slap doesn’t work, I’ll slap you a few more times.”

He immediately mobilized all his Spirit energy and Genuine Qi and took the initiative to rush over.

Without the saber, he could only rely on the cultivation of his hands. Song Shi decided to also use the Unfettered Hand.

His hands became flexible and his palm, finger and fist techniques could be changed flexibly.

Boom!

Soon, the big-headed ghost was. .h.i.t by Song Shi’s Iron Sand Palm which contained the fire Spirit energy. The air exploded in an instant.

As a result of killing Song Shi for the eighth time, the big-headed ghost’s head was morphed violently out of shape.

His Fire Spiritual energy also acc.u.mulated another 5 points, reaching 29 points.

His palm force had clearly become stronger but it was still far from being able to blow up the big-headed ghost.

Song Shi started to become obsessed with ending this ghost.

“Even if I don’t get the system rewards after dying ten times. I’ll be sure to beat you to death today!”

He no longer deliberately avoided it and fought this big-headed ghost head-on.

Bang bang!

Song Shi had used his full strength twice but in the process he also died twice.

On his eleventh death.

“Ding! The number of times you have died under the same target has reached 10. The basic reward will be stopped. The acc.u.mulated rewards can continue to be counted.”

Song Shi did not obtain anything for the first time and did not care. Today, he would endure the agony of dying and die a few more times so he could kill this ghost.

On the other side, the big-headed ghost’s head had become completely deformed. It was in a miserable state and its aura was clearly dispirited.

Anyone who was beaten up like this would become feeble and weak

It had also become a little afraid. Why was this prey stranger than it was? It had bitten him to death eleven times but still did not manage to eat a single bite.

“Why? Do you want to run? You piece of trash, kill me if you dare!”

Song Shi cursed and deliberately enraged this guy.

He wanted to kill the other party to prevent the secret of his immortality from being leaked.

This was because this ghost had a human head. It was different from the tentacle monster in the reed marsh. There was a possibility that it could describe his special ability.

“Die!”

A murderous aura appeared around Song Shi’s body. This was honed from the many death battles he had endured.

Even on an active battlefield, it was already rare for a normal person to experience more than one battle a day, but Song Shi had already died more than ten times in a short period of time.

It was hard to not be filled with killing intent.

His palm was surging with heat waves and was scorching with power. It was like he had a palm of fire, giving off an imposing aura.

As for the big-headed ghost, it did not have much strength left after being tortured by Song Shi. It was heavily injured and its speed of transformation and movement had decreased greatly.

In just two rounds, the big-headed ghost was struck by Song Shi’s palm. With a m.u.f.fled sound, the disfigured head split open, exposing its bones.

Song Shi’s eyes lit up. He felt that he could defeat this guy very quickly.

He retreated instead of waiting for death. He then tried his best to avoid the big-headed ghost’s counterattack, wanting to exhaust its strength as much as possible.

However, the big-headed ghost shook its head and did not rush over immediately. Instead, it revealed a hesitant expression and seemed like it wanted to escape.

“Come on, you p.u.s.s.y!”

Song Shi cursed, “Useless coward!”

“ROAR!”

The big-headed ghost was enraged. Its head was covered in blood as it chased after Song Shi.

After losing his Spiritual Energy, Song Shi’s condition also decreased. He dodged for a while before being bitten to death.

“Ding… congratulations on being killed 30 times by a Yin spirit. You have awakened a mid-grade Fire Spirit Root. The purity of your Spiritual Energy has increased by 50%. The speed at which you refine Spiritual Qi has doubled!”

As Song Shi revived, not only did the fire attribute Spiritual Energy in his body reach 33 points, but it also suddenly became purer by more than half.

To a certain extent, it was even harder to purify Spiritual Energy than to double the amount of it.

This was because the increase in quant.i.ty only required continuous cultivation and acc.u.mulation, whereas the change in quality required ascension of cultivation levels.

Song Shi was only at the early-stage of the fourth level of Qi Refinement but his Spiritual Energy had become comparable to the sixth level of Qi Refinement and was almost close to the level of the Connate realm.

This was also why different spiritual roots had different properties and were also valued differently by the different sects. This was because in the early stages of cultivation, the grade of the spiritual root not only affected the cultivation speed, but also the purity of Spirit energy.

If the other conditions were the same, cultivators with low-grade spiritual roots of the same level would often not be a match for those with mid-grade or high-grade spiritual roots.

Not to mention the difference in cultivation speed.

Song Shi was stunned. He had thought that there would be no more rewards but instead, there was a big one.

“So this is the acc.u.mulated reward!”

He thought of the previous notification and was pleasantly surprised. He already felt that his strength had become much purer. When the same Spiritual Energy was released, its power had more than doubled.

he could now kill in one strike!

A cold light flickered in his eyes. Song Shi was not in a hurry to cast out his transformed spiritual power.

He had to take it by surprise in order to have a chance to unleash a fatal blow.

He continued to provoke the big-headed ghost as if nothing had happened.

Previously, the big-headed ghost had charged over angrily after being scolded. This time however, the scolding did not have much effect.

Only the big-headed ghost knew that it itself was in a bad state, but this prey was still alive and kicking hence it was a little suspicious.

How in the world did this make sense?

Who was the human and who was the ghost now?

If ordinary people were so abnormal, wouldn’t ghosts start starving to death?

Seeing the fear in the big-headed ghost’s eyes, Song Shi frowned.

He could not delay any longer!

He took the initiative to attack. He did not dodge anymore and attacked it head-on.

Seeing that the food was getting more and more arrogant, the big-headed ghost was prepared to bite this person to death again and leave!

It was still the same old trick. It first turned into an illusion and dodged, then attacked from behind Song Shi.

However Song Shi could sense its attack even with his eyes closed. He took the initiative to let it bite his shoulder, so it could not immediately turn illusory.

Enduring the pain, he flipped his palm and a ball of red energy appeared in his palm.

The big-headed ghost sensed that something was wrong, but it was too late!

BOOM!

A scorching heat wave was released from Song Shi’s hand. Like a volcanic eruption, it hit the big-headed ghost head on and the fire-attribute Spiritual Energy directly entered it.

“ROAR!”

The big-headed ghost screamed miserably. The wound on its head that Song Shi had inflicted earlier started to glow and many cracks started to appear.

“Are you surprised?”

Song Shi grinned and released all his strength.

The big-headed ghost’s head expanded violently. Then, with a bang, it exploded and was torn apart by flames.

Song Shi snorted before being forced back by the blast.

Fire waves surged in front of him, quickly burning the incomplete parts of the big-headed ghost and breaking the barrier of darkness that had engulfed his surroundings at the same time.

The power of the big-headed ghost that had caused Song Shi’s surroundings to become isolated directly evaporated and the world returned to normal.
