Becoming a true immortal through my descendents' praying-Chapter 108 - 107: Conquering the First Layer
Chapter 108: Chapter 107: Conquering the First Layer
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
Yang Shi started with a salvo of American Iaido.
The wood element bullets, imbued with the Poison Quenching Technique, were effective against all earth attribute creatures, including earth puppets.
As the series of bullets penetrated the Earth God Soldier’s chest, creating a string of small holes, sand began to pour out from its body.
But with a flash of light, those small holes closed up, rendering the attack ineffective.
A salvo of bullets was only enough to give the Earth God Soldier a slight itch.

“American Iaido isn’t causing enough damage due to its small impact area. We need another method… Fu’er, do you have any wood element spells with a wider damage radius?”
Confronted with the Earth God Soldier’s immense size and self-healing capabilities, Yang Shi immediately gave up on American Iaido, which was more effective against cultivators.
Yang Fu pondered for a moment.
“I’m not well-versed in Wood Skill; it’s more of an auxiliary for me. During my year with the True Fire Sect, I have learned quite a bit of Fire Skill, which we could try.”
Whoosh!
The Earth God Soldier didn’t wait for them to slowly discuss tactics and swept over with its 20-meter-long spear at an extremely fast speed!
“Earth Tunneling!”
The father and son duo simultaneously dove underground to dodge the sweeping strike.
Raising its spear with great force, the Earth God Soldier jabbed at the sandy ground.
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
The ground erupted, forcing the duo out, with a faint flicker of a flame shield hovering over them.
However, the area damage was almost harmless to the two of them, one a master among Innate Grandmasters and the other, though only half a step from being an Innate Grandmaster, had a body strengthened by the absorption of demon beasts, making him even stronger than an Innate Grandmaster.
A flash from Yang Fu’s storage ring, and a pair of gloves appeared on his hands.
[Ice Chi Gloves]
[Mid Grade Magic Artifact]
[Immune to water and fire, can increase the power of spells.]
Wearing these gloves could make his spells more concentrated; they were a spoil of war when the Yang Family had killed Xiang Pichi.
“Flame Pattern Skill!”
Streams of dark purple flame runes shot out from Yang Fu’s hands, forming patterns that imprinted on the Earth God Soldier’s body as it thrust its spear straight at them.
Yang Shi unleashed his Flowing Water Sword.
Crack!
An immense shockwave erupted at the moment of impact, a collision of pure force!
The Earth Spiritual Power on the spear spread toward the Flowing Water Sword, completely sealing off its spiritual power, while the sword itself sliced half of the spearhead off, causing it to veer away.
Yang Fu shifted slightly, casting more flame runes that covered the Earth God Soldier’s entire body.
“Ignite!”
Yang Fu whispered softly, and the dozens of flame runes on the Earth God Soldier burst into dark purple flames, instantaneously turning it into an Earth Fire God Soldier.
Even though Yang Fu had not yet fully achieved the Qi Refinement Realm, the power of his spells was formidable!
He effortlessly executed high-rank Qi Cultivation spells that were supposed to be used by advanced Qi Cultivators.
“Roar!!!!”
The Earth God Soldier, burning with rage, caused the ground to swirl up countless grains of sand, aiming to smother the flames covering its body.
“Xuanling Heavy Water!”
A small bottle appeared in Yang Fu’s hand, from which he poured a drop of deep blue spiritual water, targeting the sweeping sand. The single drop of water grew larger and larger, turning into a surging river in midair that washed away everything in its path.
Whoosh~
The sand was swept away by the Xuanling Heavy Water, the ground becoming wet and slippery, just like a marsh.
But after all, it was a Water Element Magic Treasure, restrained by Earth Element Magic, only managing to bind the surrounding sand without being able to attack.
The Earth God Soldier failed to repair its body and, in extreme rage, lunged towards Yang Fu with its fiery form, looking ferocious.
A collision with its massive 20-meter-high body would cause a Second Grade Defense Talisman to burst instantaneously.
Moreover, the Earth God Soldier moved swiftly on the ground, not at all like a bulky monster.
“Want to test physical strength? Then I shall give it a try…”
Yang Shi drew a new magic sword from his waist and pushed off the ground with force.
Boom!
The ground exploded with sand as Yang Shi shot out like a rocket, striking directly at the knee joint of the Earth God Soldier.
Splat!
His sword sliced through half of the Earth God Soldier’s knee, spilling a large amount of sand, intending to bury Yang Shi underneath.
Yang Shi, unflustered, casually took out a Second Grade Talisman from his waist.
“Old Tree Entangling Roots!”
A great root emerged from the ground, wrapping around the Earth God Soldier’s fractured thigh, pulling it to the ground.
Boom!
The Earth God Soldier fell to the ground, kicking up countless sands, obscuring the sun and the sky.
An Earth God Soldier with a palm as big as an acre swooped past, Yang Shi was unable to dodge in time and could only turn around to receive the blow with his back.
Smack!
Yang Shi was struck squarely and sent flying backward.
He burst out with a large swath of black smoke, with ten defensive magic devices simultaneously appearing; the thin shell on his back showed numerous cracks, but fortunately, they defended him against this attack.
“Thank goodness I just acquired this talent from the sand worm, or else that hit would have severely injured me at the very least.”
Yang Shi knew his body well—this attack of the Earth God Soldier… was stronger than he imagined!
It was even stronger than the force of a demon beast at the Qi Cultivation Perfection!
“No wonder it serves as the gatekeeper of the first layer.”
Yang Genshuo also sighed, “This kind of monster is typically high in offense and defense but lacks versatility. It can afford countless mistakes, but if you make a single mistake and it catches you… then you’re in for a world of hurt.”
Yang Genshuo’s assessment of the monster: Recovery freak + brute strength!
And its speed wasn’t slow either.
But just now, Yang Shi had given it a fierce blow, directly severing most of its knee and using an Old Tree Rooting Talisman below the knee, temporarily crippling one of its legs.
Its entire body was temporarily fixed to the ground.
“Now’s the perfect time to attack!”
Just as Yang Shi was about to continue the onslaught, he found that the sand covering his body was binding him like relentless parasites, attempting to immobilize him there.
This sand was a spell!
But the next moment, a yellow light flashed on Yang Shi’s body, and all the Earth Spirit Power was absorbed into him, causing the sand to fall to the ground powerlessly.
[Basic Earth Absorption]
This talent allowed him to absorb a part of the Earth Element Magic, and with his body nourished by Spiritual Power, he soon shook off the exhaustion from being struck, now in excellent condition!
“Red Dragon Breath!”
Yang Fu prepared a powerful attack; a phantom of a fire dragon appeared over his head as he slowly floated, a great deal of Fire Spirit Power gathering in his mouth, blasting toward the Earth God Soldier on the ground.
Boom!!!
A light blue Heavenly Level flame covered the Earth God Soldier, rapidly aging its body, with rocks crazily shedding and leaving it fragile and brittle.
The life-stealing effect of [Life Fire]!
The Spiritual Power Vortex within Yang Fu churned wildly!
Earth Generates Metal, Metal Generates Water, Water Generates Wood, Wood Generates Fire!
The flame rolled like towering waves, ceaselessly extending!
In that moment, Yang Fu, at three-fifths of the Qi Cultivation step, unleashed a vast and profound Spiritual Power only possessed by high-rank Qi Cultivators!
This was the culmination from a Fallen Genius!
Five Elements Transfer Skill, fivefold Spiritual Power! Among my peers, I am invincible!
The High Grade Magic Artifact [Earth Essence Stone] around Yang Fu’s neck emitted a yellow glow as the stored Spiritual Power within it rapidly flowed back into his body and was transformed into pure Life Fire by the Five Star Wheel vortex, erupting outwards.
The massive Earth God Soldier, engulfed by the Red Dragon’s flame, had its life swiftly drained away.
Not until Yang Fu’s Spiritual Power was depleted and he fell from the sky did the flames barely stop.
A [Spirit Revitalizing Pill] appeared in Yang Fu’s hand, and after popping it into his mouth, he quickly adjusted his breath to recover his Spiritual Power.
“Father, use water to attack it.”
“Alright!”
Yang Shi had already pulled out his Flowing Water Sword from the ground by this time.
A Second Grade Water Element Talisman [Ice Armor] was attached, providing a thick layer of Ice Spirit Power over the Flowing Water Sword.
This Defense Talisman attached to the weapon could be used like an Ice Sword Skill, which was very handy.
The Earth God Soldier struggled on the ground to stand up, but its body was severely damaged by the burning, with all its armor shattered and sparse flames sizzling, while the ground’s sand continuously tried to smother those flames, covering its body.
Yang Shi leaped forward in big strides and soon reached the chest of the Earth God Soldier, where within the damaged armor was a large gemstone throbbing with life.
“Die!”
Yang Shi slashed down with his sword, his tremendous strength piercing through the quicksand; the fire and ice on his body contacted each other and dissipated into ash.
Boom!
A vast wave of Spiritual Power burst forth from the Earth God Soldier’s body. Yang Shi pulled out the Flowing Water Sword and leaped backward, grabbing Yang Fu and retreating.
At that moment, a strand of red light fell from the sky and shot into the body of the Earth God Soldier.
The whole first layer of the Earth Tomb stirred, as sand swirled like a level eight violent storm, rapidly gathering inside the Earth God Soldier’s body.
The Earth God Soldier’s injuries vanished without a trace, and its body returned to its original, intact condition.
However, at this point, its eyes had lost their blood-red glow, and it stood emotionless as it spoke:
“You have passed the test of the first layer, and your strength has been recognized by me. You may take one of the treasures from this layer, but do not be greedy.”
Only one?
Yang Genshuo was slightly disappointed; there were many good things in the first layer. Besides the trace of Innate Earth Spiritual Energy, there were several Earth Element Magic Treasures and Earth Element Formations, all of which could serve as a trump card for a Qi Refining Stage Cultivator.
Anxious, Yang Shi asked, “Elder, what rewards are there on the Second Layer? May we challenge it?”
Since he was here, he wanted to take more good things home.
