Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Now, Seven Refinements!

Cold and damp.

Sticky.

Eerie.

More than twenty ’Bounty Hunters’ suddenly had an illusion, as if the area around the hotel had become an isolated island.

It seemed separated and isolated from the outside world.

“Jiu, go and try.” The Giant Stone squinted, and a woman in her thirties nodded slightly, tapped her toes, and floated towards the lobby.

Entered inside.

Silence.

She only felt extreme silence, alert and focused, she could hear a heartbeat on the top floor of the hotel.

The heartbeat wasn’t particularly strong or vigorous, just like an ordinary person’s… the heartbeat disappeared??

No!

Something’s wrong!

It hasn’t disappeared!

It’s behind me!

The woman’s scalp exploded, she turned around with a loud bang, her internal tendons tightened, and her slender arm snapped back like a whip,

The force at the end of her punch, driven by twenty thousand jin of strength, exceeded a hundred thousand jin!

She saw a frail youth floating down like a ghost.

The fist passed through the youth’s body, and the terrifying gust it stirred up shredded the wooden floor beneath her feet to pieces.

Missed?

No, this youth seems to be… a holographic projection?

But why can I hear his breathing and heartbeat?

“Impressive.”

Zhang Fusheng marveled, extended his hand, calmly reaching forward, the woman’s eyes sharp, hands intertwining, but blocked nothing.

The youth’s hand was like a phantom that didn’t exist, passing through the woman’s creamy-smooth skin, through her prominent chest, and stopping inside her chest cavity.

Seventh Form and Spirit, Bone Scattering Form.

The flesh has decayed completely, bones have scattered, leaving only a soul.

“Fake, just a projection.” The woman shouted loudly towards the captain outside the hotel.

In the same instant, she suddenly felt her heart was being gripped by something!

“What a warm heart.”

The youth, transforming from virtual to real, sighed:

“Warm, scorching, beating forcefully, pumping blood…”

He suddenly exerted force, the woman with a horrified expression let out a painful scream, her hands intertwined and lashed out again!

Zhang Fusheng frowned.

Didn’t crush it.

He had just exerted three thousand jin of force, but unexpectedly couldn’t crush a single heart??

At Seven Refinements, have the internal organs already been strengthened to such a degree?

He abruptly became ethereal again, avoiding the strike, and once more grabbed the woman’s heart, this time using all his strength, delivering a fierce punch!

’Pa!’

A muffled sound accompanied by the roar of a tiger echoed within the woman’s chest cavity, immediately enveloping blood energy, emanating from her eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.

Retracting his palm, the heartbroken woman collapsed softly to the ground.

Zhang Fusheng turned his head, standing in the lobby, looking towards the bounty hunters outside.

He smiled and said:

“Who’s next?”

This bizarre scene stunned everyone, a captain led his squad and immediately left,

Six figures broke through the rain curtain, their swift movements creating long white trails, but no matter how they escaped, how they advanced, they couldn’t go far and eerily returned!

“Ghost Wall? No!”

The Beauty Snake, noticing this scene, felt her scalp explode:

“This is… the Divine Realm?!”

“No, it’s not the Divine Realm, we are not in his spiritual world, it’s his Divine Thought interfering with reality, weaving an illusion!”

Zhang Fusheng raised an eyebrow, surprised at how knowledgeable they were, seeing through it immediately?

How boring.

This indeed wasn’t his Divine Realm, the Divine Realm is essentially just a spiritual world; before turning falsehood into reality,

any harm received in the Divine Realm doesn’t count—unless those Subordinate Souls interfere.

The retreating squad returned, twenty-three people covered in cold sweat, staring intently at the youth,

The Beauty Snake licked her lips, dryly saying:

“He’s not a Grandmaster, otherwise we would be dead already… He’s cultivated the Contemplation Technique to Minor Perfection, having premature Grandmaster characteristics, the spirit can interfere with reality!”

The Giant Stone slightly lowered his body:

“Interesting, so what Jiu and we saw were all illusions, no wonder it missed… Everyone, shock your blood and energy, protect yourself!!”

He first let out a low roar, his skin turning a crimson red, the turbulent blood and energy within raging like a tide!

“Hmm?”

Zhang Fusheng was surprised, suddenly finding his Spiritual Will ’burned’ painfully.

“A sufficiently abundant blood and energy can harm the intangible Spiritual Will?”

He pondered, recalling ghost stories from his past life, where ghosts and spirits always feared those full of blood energy.

The Divine Realm and Spiritual Power are two different things, the former is Zhang Fusheng’s spiritual world, achieving Minor Perfection can draw others’ consciousnesses in,

If perfected, it can directly reflect in the real world, even briefly truly manifest in reality.

And Spiritual Power or Divine Thought… literally, can interfere with the reality of light and shadow to some degree, even affecting others’ senses, just like what Zhang Fusheng is currently doing.

But at this moment, these people’s vital energy was surging, could they actually counteract the spiritual interference?

He pondered, perhaps it’s because he couldn’t use the spiritual will of Perfection level.

“Indeed, it’s the spiritual thoughts!” Giant Stone shouted, with his vital energy surging, the false hotel before him started to flicker, the once vanished chaotic heartbeat and breathing noises reappeared.

“Kill him!”

Over twenty martial artists swiftly closed in for the hunt, each with surging vital energy. Although they couldn’t completely immune themselves to spiritual influence, they could partially break through the illusions!

“So young, yet already possessing the divine thoughts of a Grandmaster—what a monster… I love killing those!”

Like an iron tower, Giant Stone slammed down with a force of tens of thousands of jin, the hotel lobby shattered and the massive force pushed the wooden floor to surge like waves around!

Zhang Fusheng remained unharmed.

“It’s empty? Another illusion?” Giant Stone was taken aback.

The next second, he saw the young man reach into his own chest, and then a fierce squeezing feeling emerged from his heart!

’Wow!’

The burly man coughed out blood, with his chest feeling intense pain, but his tightly gripped heart suddenly thumped with great force!

Zhang Fusheng was ’bounced’ away, his feet plowing out long trenches on the shattered wooden floor.

He not only failed to crush this tenth-refined martial artist’s heart, but his hand was also cracked by the backlash, now bleeding.

“It’s some kind of special physique!” Giant Stone panted as he roared, “It’s not an illusion; he seems to switch between reality and illusion!”

“But when he launches an attack, he must be ’realized.’ That’s when we can touch him… This guy isn’t highly ranked, just at the Fifth Refining Level; we have a chance to kill him!”

Zhang Fusheng’s mouth twitched, are you kidding, aren’t you a bit too smart?

Are you called Naruto Uzumaki?

The martial artists swarmed forward, Zhang Fusheng maintained his ’Pseudo Soul’ state of virtualization, ignoring most of the killing methods—but was still painfully scorched by the boiling vital blood.

However, it was just painful and not to the point of injury.

“Quite troublesome.”

Zhang Fusheng completely set aside his underestimation, is it possible he must leave first?

In the Pseudo Soul state, they couldn’t possibly keep him.

But just now, the spiritual thoughts heard, these people’s goal wasn’t only himself; they also aimed to kill everyone in Peace Hotel.

Uncle’s family is still upstairs…

Zhang Fusheng stepped out again, his form suddenly expanding, the third form, Giant’s Observation!

He transformed into an inflated giant three meters tall, foul-smelling air rolled out, the force of over six thousand jin surged up to twenty thousand jin!

This scene was too startling, the bounty hunters briefly froze, and it was during this blink.

Zhang Fusheng fiercely shook a fist, the sound of a tiger’s roar rang out, sending two seventh-refined martial artists caught in a stupor into a mist of blood!

But in the instant he killed,

Beauty Snake approached unbeknownst, and her long left leg whipped out like a whip, brutally tearing open Zhang Fusheng’s back and piercing into it!

The force of fifty to sixty thousand jin surged, Zhang Fusheng coughed out green blood, suddenly virtualized, then backhanded the fist larger than a human head through Beauty Snake’s body, before realizing!

This tenth-refined martial artist let out a miserable scream, all her insides squeezing against the massive fist that suddenly appeared,

But she fiercely exerted her force, shaking her organs, squeezing Zhang Fusheng’s fist into a shattered state, flesh torn, bone scattered, leaving only the darkened hand bone in the Giant’s Observation state!

If not for the significant enhancement of the entire bone structure by Dead Man’s Bone, even the hand bone would have been crushed!

“Indeed… Where would there be so many mindless experts?” Zhang Fusheng panted, without withdrawing his fist, nor virtualizing,

He endured the intense pain, leaving the fist larger than a human head in the woman’s chest cavity, then activated Dead Man’s Bone.

To devour life force.

Beauty Snake, who was preparing to fight off the decaying giant, suddenly weakened in both legs, feeling her strength rapidly waning,

She whimpered, instead of retreating, she moved forward, slamming fiercely; the giant’s hand burst out from her back, with blood spraying!

Though she had already collided against the giant, entwining him, erupting with nearly fifty thousand jin of force even though rapidly weakening!

“Roar!!” Zhang Fusheng let out an uncontrollable cry of pain, forcefully holding back the urge to ascend to the Divine Realm,

He allowed his body to be torn open, seemingly indestructible bones absorbed most of the impact, gravely wounded, but far from on the brink of death, forcibly consuming this terrifying martial artist’s life force!

The beautiful and seductive woman gradually lost strength,

By the time other bounty hunters reacted and surrounded him again, Beauty Snake had become a mummified corpse.

“Run…”

She glanced at her fellow team members, spoke with difficulty, and her body suddenly disintegrated into a pile of white powder.

An entire life force of a peak martial artist of the tenth refinement level, all infused into Zhang Fusheng’s body,

Dead Man’s Bone fiercely absorbed, while Zhang Fusheng desperately intercepted, ultimately clawing back forty percent from Dead Man’s Bone’s ’mouth,’

The shattered viscera instantly mending,

Equating to half the life force of a peak martial artist of the tenth refinement, swiftly nourishing his body,

The mysterious factor, originally needing months or even years to accumulate, suddenly sufficed.

Peak of Five Refinements achieved.

Spiritual will intervening in reality, forcibly breaking the final shackles within the muscles.

Six Refinements.

Minor Achievement of the Sixth Refinement, Great Success, Perfection, Three Refinements of Flesh completely realized.

Spiritual will continued to assault the first shackle in the major tendons.

The shackle shattered.

Seventh Refinement achieved, adding five thousand jin of force.

A total force of fifteen thousand jin.

Giant’s Observation, tripled again.

“Good… So refreshing…”

The giant, now half a meter taller, closed his eyes, letting out a satisfied sigh, a breath of foul air expelled, and striking the pile of white ashes on the shattered floor,

The white ashes, along with dust and shattered wood chips, spread out in a circular ripple.

She was everywhere in the lobby now.

The giant opened his eyes.
