Chapter 162: Fishing in Troubled Waters

King Jin Ling was not some demon with astonishing bloodline.

He was merely a carp spirit that had mistakenly consumed Spiritual Medicine and transformed into a demon, so his Innate Divine Ability was actually quite poor—it wasn't this deadly black water, but simply a Water Manipulation Technique.

Yet this deadly black water had been refined by King Jin Ling at great cost.

He had accidentally obtained the corrupt inner core of a Poisonous Flood Dragon and refined it by adding various poisons which he had nurtured within his body for a hundred years, thus forming this deadly black water.

This black water had always been invincible before, so how could it have no effect on Han Zheng at all?

Han Zheng's blood and energy surged around his body, his muscles snapped, and he directly flicked the remaining black water away.

Now, the strength of Han Zheng's body was almost unimaginably more powerful than that of other martial artists of his level.

After making a breakthrough to the True Martial Yuan Chen Treasure Body with the True Martial Refinement Technique, the strength of Han Zheng's body surged even further.

The True Martial Yuan Chen Treasure Body could stimulate and refine the body with the primordial deathly aura of the Yuan Chen constellations.

No sinister and evil forces could permeate Han Zheng's body, let alone mere external toxins.

Probably only Scorpion Charm Lady's Inverted Horse Poison Stake from before could break through Han Zheng's True Martial Yuan Chen Treasure Body.

Although the Xuan Gang Realm Body Refining Techniques couldn't achieve the true Vajra Indestructible state, they at least ensured immunity to hundreds of poisons.

"I didn't expect you, this fish, to be venomous, and now it seems you don't even have the value of being eaten."

Han Zheng sneered, and the sky was filled with Sword Gang Qi falling from above.

King Jin Ling didn't say another word this time and immediately fled across the waves.

He didn't expect to encounter such a tough nut to crack!

The only strong point of King Jin Ling was a sense of urgency.

He would be extremely arrogant if he could overpower the other party.

But if he couldn't win against the opponent, he ran faster than anyone else.

However, as fast as he ran, Han Zheng chased even faster.

King Jin Ling could clearly feel the chilling Sword Energy coming from behind him, and it was accompanied by a piercing sound of wind and thunder roaring furiously.

"How can this guy have such speed?"

As a water demon, King Jin Ling's speed was already incredibly fast when navigating the waves, but unexpectedly, that Xuanjia Guard from the Demon Cleansing Bureau was still hanging right behind him.

With a cold snort, King Jin Ling flipped over and plunged into the water.

In an instant, his body was wrapped in Demon Energy and the Spiritual Energy of the water, with a golden fish tail emerging behind him. With a fierce swish of his tail, he darted forward like a golden arrow shooting out with great force.

King Jin Ling's innate divine skill was actually the Water Manipulation Technique, with his speed reaching its greatest potential in water.

Since human warriors could not stay underwater for long periods, this was precisely why King Jin Ling was so confident facing the Demon Cleansing Bureau.

Han Zheng's figure also followed closely into the lake.

He had never fought under water before, but when facing a water demon like King Jin Ling, Han Zheng also had confidence.

Martial artists could not breathe underwater, but with a powerful body, they could still combat for some time there.

Only when one reached the Dan Sea Realm and opened up the Dan Sea within the body, where the True Yuan flowed endlessly, could one not suffocate underwater, and they could even survive for a year without eating or drinking.

It can be said that as long as a Dan Sea Realm warrior is not placed in a completely Spiritual Energy vacuum, he cannot die.

Although Han Zheng was not at the Dan Sea Realm, his body was formidable, his True Yuan was vigorous, and his foundation was incredibly deep.

Other warriors could only stay underwater for half an hour, but Han Zheng could last for one or two hours without any issue.

At this moment, Han Zheng's surrounding Gang Qi was like arrows, dividing the surrounding waters, and in a few breaths, he had already arrived above King Jin Ling's head.

Feeling a shadow loom over him, King Jin Ling was instantly horrified.

How could this guy still have such speed underwater?

In physical combat, his own demon power was not as strong as Han Zheng's, the Black Water Divine Power was ineffective against Han Zheng, and he could not escape, so King Jin Ling had no choice but to frantically mobilize his Demon Energy and use the Water Manipulation Divine Power, shooting water arrows at Han Zheng while the surrounding water turned into vortexes sweeping towards him.

Han Zheng formed a Seal Technique with his hands, activating the Beidou Tianxuan True Gang to its limit.

The seven stars shone brilliantly, and the domineering and powerful Death Intent Gang Qi could not only plunder vitality but also directly suppress any other kinds of forces.

In that instant, the water arrow exploded, and the whirlpool was torn apart, as Gang Qi directly transformed into a large net that descended upon the Golden Spirit King.

Only Martial Artists in the Middle Stage or Later Stage of the Xuan Gang Realm could perform Gang Qi Transformation.

Now Han Zheng was only in the Early Stage of the Xuan Gang Realm, but he had almost mastered Gang Qi Transformation.

The Golden Spirit King screamed, its body flashing with golden light as it revealed its true demon form, turning into a giant carp that was more than thirty feet long.

The carp flicked its tail, and in an instant, countless currents swirled around it, carrying it swiftly through the water.

Han Zheng reached out to grab, and in an instant, a vast amount of Gang Qi materialized into a giant hand that burst forth.

Ape Demon Nine Transformations, Moving Mountain!

Only after stepping into the Xuan Gang Realm could Han Zheng truly unleash the power of Moving Mountain.

Previously, he condensed the Moving Mountain Giant Hand using True Qi, which spanned a very short distance and was not very large.

But now, the Moving Mountain Giant Hand formed by Gang Qi was incredibly terrifying; the several-dozen-feet hand materialized in the water, casting a shadow over everything in an instant, as if it were the Five-finger Mountain itself.

The surrounding currents were even compressed by the force of the descending giant hand, bursting out with a loud bang.

The Golden Spirit King thrashed its tail frantically, but there seemed to be a powerful suction force within the giant hand, and no matter how it struggled, it could not escape the clutches of this Five-finger Mountain!

Moving Mountain fell, directly clenching the Golden Spirit King firmly in its grasp.

To its horror, the Golden Spirit King found that most of its demonic power and blood were instantly stripped away by that giant hand.

And as the hand tightened its grip, it nearly caused its eyeballs to burst out!

The Moving Mountain Giant Hand threw upwards, sending the Golden Spirit King flying out of the water and crashing onto the shore.

At this moment, Zhang Yan was pacing back and forth on the shore, anxiously waiting.

When he saw the Golden Spirit King dive into the water, he cursed inwardly.

Previously, when Mr. Liao confronted the Golden Spirit King, it was the same situation.

On the water, the Golden Spirit King was forced to flee in panic, but once it entered the water, Mr. Liao chased it for a long distance without catching up, and because he couldn't replenish his strength in the water, he had to return in disarray.

So seeing Han Zheng being dragged into the water by the Golden Spirit King, he feared it would end the same as with Mr. Liao.

However, although this young Mr. Han was young, his strength was truly formidable and domineering.

With one slash, he made even demons like the Golden Spirit King flee in panic, in utter disarray.

Zhang Yan even felt that Han Zheng was no less formidable than the former Liao Hongsheng.

While Zhang Yan was lost in these thoughts, suddenly, a loud explosion came from the water's surface.

A giant golden carp, thirty feet long, was flung up from the water and fiercely crashed onto the shore.

Han Zheng quickly followed, emerging from the water, his body protected by Gang Qi, not a single drop of water on him.

Autumn Water Shocking Swallow thrust fiercely into the fish tail of the Golden Spirit King, splattering demon blood as it nailed the Golden Spirit King to the ground.

Zhang Yan's eyes widened in disbelief.

Han Zheng had indeed subdued the Golden Spirit King in the water, and he didn't kill it, he captured it alive!

"Spare my life! I won't dare to eat humans again! I'll only eat aquatic plants for the rest of my life!"

The Golden Spirit King's fish head moved as if nodding, continually begging for mercy.

Han Zheng found it quite odd, he had encountered many Great Demons before, but none as cowardly and afraid of death as this Golden Spirit King.

"Did you kill Mr. Liao Hongsheng from the Smoke Wave Prefecture's Demon Cleansing Bureau?"

Han Zheng stepped on its fish head, asking coldly.

The Golden Spirit King quickly defended itself, "Of course not! Liao Hongsheng was in the Late Stage of Xuan Gang Realm, how could I possibly kill him?

On the shore, a few slashes from him could chop me up. Even in the water, I wouldn't dare to clash with him; I could only rely on the Water Manipulation Divine Power to move around until he ran out of strength."

After the confrontation with the Golden Spirit King, Han Zheng also felt it was unlikely that it had killed Liao Hongsheng.

The Golden Spirit King was very weak; apart from its skill in escaping, everything else was practically ineffective.

Moreover, its weapon was a hammer, and the only Divine Skill it had that could truly kill someone was the extremely poisonous Black Water, which did not match the wounds on Mr. Liao's body.
