What If I Can't Die? Chapter 66 - 66 Dharma artifacts and the Diamond Dharma Body!

Chapter 66 - 66 Dharma artifacts and the Diamond Dharma Body!

66 Dharma artifacts and the Diamond Dharma Body!

“So these are the Gu worms that control the movements in the corpses’ bodies?”

Song s.h.i.+ sized it up curiously. This thing had the size of a caterpillar, but the fur on its body was similar to mini tentacles. It was a little disgusting.

Turning around, Song s.h.i.+ pulled out the Gentleman Sword that was stabbed into the ground at the side and broke open the head of an ordinary Gu Corpse.

Inside, he found similar insects, but they were much smaller and whiter in color. They were also dead.

“Will they die after the Gu Corpse is killed?”

Song s.h.i.+ seemed to be deep in thought, “But how did they determine my location previously? Was I tainted by a scent?”

Feeling that this creature was quite complicated, Song s.h.i.+ did not waste any time studying it. He stood up and walked towards Hei Duzi.

With the Array Formation Power covering him, Song s.h.i.+ walked to his side, but Hei Duzi did not seem to notice.

There was a black alms bowl above the other party’s head, and an energy s.h.i.+eld protected the bowl securely. Inside the alms bowl, something seemed to be squirming.

Just as Song s.h.i.+ was considering letting this fellow kill him a few times, Hei Duzi, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly formed a seal. The black alms bowl suddenly flew out.

Song s.h.i.+’s pupils were constricted. This guy could still discover his position. He suppressed his instinct to resist and hurriedly stuck his head out to be struck by Hei Duzi’s Dharma artifacts.

He had to seize this good opportunity to court death!

Clang!

Song s.h.i.+’s head was cracked open and blood gushed out. As his head was smashed by the alms bowl, he was sent flying.

“Congratulations on being killed by Dharma artifacts. Physique +3!”

“You have absorbed strength from death and obtained 2 Freedom Attribute Points!”

“You will be resurrected in three seconds!”

“No resurrection location set. Resurrection on the spot by default!”

This time, Song s.h.i.+ died very quickly. He died the moment he landed on the ground.

Hei Duzi’s Dharma artifact, the alms bowl, was of a high-grade, hence despite his top-grade Diamond Treasure Body, he was still inferior to it.

Moreover he did not use any True Energy to resist and even took the initiative to absorb the direct impact. He was naturally unable to withstand it.

After shattering Song s.h.i.+’s head, the alms bowl Dharma artifact slowly retracted. Hei Duzi did not dare to reach too far out, or he would be cut off from the Dharma artifacts by the power of the Array Formation .

Swoos.h.!.+

Hei Duzi opened his eyes, “I know you want to ambush me, but I have an army of Gu around me, that echoes your presence, as long as you get close, I will be able to sense it.”

He stood up and looked at the alms bowl. There was no blood on it.

“This person probably has some protective Dharma artifacts… or even a Dharma treasure body.”

Hei Duzi narrowed his eyes.

The other party had dealt with the Iron Skinned Gu Corpse so quickly without being killed by it. It seemed that he was indeed quite capable.

He had actually not noticed the existence of this kind of person before. If his power continued to mature, he would really be a troublesome existence.

He looked coldly at the thick white fog, “Song s.h.i.+, don’t even think about ambus.h.i.+ng me. My Echoing Gu can echo the presence of everything from thirty feet around me. As long as you enter, I will sense it.”

The other party clearly did not take his words seriously. Soon, the Gu he had set up fluctuated in its echoes, signaling that Song s.h.i.+ had approached again!

Without hesitation, he activated the alms bowl and smashed it over the incoming intruder.

Clang!

With another m.u.f.fled sound, the alms bowl flew out ten feet. Its light dimmed and it trembled and swayed.

This was because the connection between the Dharma artifacts and their owner was rapidly disappearing. Hei Duzi hurriedly formed a seal and slowly retracted it back.

Since the time it took to retract the alms bowl was far more than three seconds. Hei Duzi did not see any bloodstains on it. He treated it as a collision of Dharma artifacts and did not think too much about it.

Song s.h.i.+, who used his head to block the Dharma artifacts, successfully died again.

“From the rewards, it seems that this guy’s strength is not much different from mine. He’s probably at the ninth to tenth level of Qi Refinement. It shouldn’t be difficult to kill him. I’ll farm a large number of deaths first.”

Song s.h.i.+ jumped up and approached Hei Duzi again. The attacks by the alms bowl currently was a physical one. It seemed that it was capable of other types of attacks, but in order to conserve Spiritual Energy, Hei Duzi did not activate them.

This gave him a chance to smash his head against the Dharma artifact again.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Every half a minute, there would be a collision. However, as the area was sealed by the Array Formation Power the sound only echoed in a small area.

The cycle of death continued. This time, even if he died thirty times in a row, there was no change to his power, nor was there any basic reward.

Song s.h.i.+ was not in a hurry. He did not believe that the system would not upgrade him if he died enough times.

While he was farming the number of deaths, Hei Duzi was about to vomit from the overexertion of his powers.

Although using Dharma artifacts to smash Song s.h.i.+ consumed very little Spiritual Energy, it was still extremely depleting if done too many times.

This was because controlling the Dharma artifact under the influence of the Array Formation Power was very tiring.

After seventy times, his spiritual power and divine sense were almost exhausted to none. He had no choice but to take a Qi Replenishment Pill to recover.

With his Spiritual Energy exhausted, he could still eat Qi Replenishment Pills to recover, but his divine sense could not be replenished.

The light in his eyes grew dimmer and dimmer.

“It doesn’t make sense. This person also keeps activating his Dharma artifacts to collide with mine. How has his Spiritual Energy not been exhausted?”

Staring at the thick fog, he really wanted to know what the other party was doing.

“Hehe, this guy doesn’t seem to have enough Spiritual Energy!”

Song s.h.i.+ could see Hei Duzi’s situation clearly.

He knew that other than the limitation of needing to form hand seals to cast spells, ordinary cultivators’ Spiritual Energy would easily dry up when using Dharma artifacts.

Once they had no more Spiritual Energy left, a pure cultivator could only replenish it from the outside world, unlike a martial artist who could refine essence from his body to replenish his Genuine Qi. Their endurance was hence of a lower level.

This was roughly similar to Mages and Warriors in RPGs. Since they were able to refine their bodies, they would be considered as ‘tanks’ in these games.

If someone cultivated both Immortality and Martial Arts, he would be a Battle Mage. If it was an Immortal cultivator who cultivated body tempering, he would be called a Tank Mage. If an Immortal and Martial Arts cultivator cultivated body tempering, they would be a Battle Tank Mage and be the strongest amongst all.

Therefore since Song s.h.i.+’s Diamond Treasured Body was top-notch in body refinement and coupled with the fact that he cultivated both Immortal and Martial Arts, it could be said that Song s.h.i.+ belonged to the strongest cla.s.s, the Battle Tank Mage.

Hei Duzi’s body was very similar to the Iron Skinned Gu Corpse that he had killed. He should be considered a Tank Mage, but he was also a little lacking in certain aspects to be considered so.

“Do your best. Let me die a few more times.”

Song s.h.i.+ chuckled and continued farming death.

After being smashed to death 30 times by the alms bowl and as Hei Duzi was panting, a system notification appeared in Song s.h.i.+’s ears.

“Ding! You have been killed by physical attacks by Dharma Artifacts 200 times. Your Physique has been upgraded to a low-grade Diamond Dharma Body. Your Physique has increased by 200 points. Your Strength, Flesh and Bone Strength have increased by two times!”

Song s.h.i.+’s body underwent a huge change. First, his skin shone with a golden light, as if he had transformed into a Golden Arhat.

When the golden light condensed to become extremely bright, it transformed into a golden rune that appeared on his heart. A hint of Holy aura suddenly descended upon his entire body.

This rune was extremely mysterious. It emitted a firm and powerful and mysterious fluctuation. The nearby Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was attracted and a portion of the Metallic Spiritual Qi automatically gathered towards the rune.

Buzz!

The Void in Song s.h.i.+ fluctuated, and a golden energy barrier was born. It congregated to the surface of Song s.h.i.+’s body and an additional barrier appeared, making Song s.h.i.+ look like a special humanoid Dharma artifact.

This was the Dharma Body. Most Foundation Establishment cultivators and extraordinary martial artists dreamed of having such a Physique. If they could cultivate it, their bodies would be able to withstand the attacks of any Dharma artifacts.

However, Song s.h.i.+, who had been resurrected, did not look happy when he saw this miraculous scene. His expression turned bitter, “It’s over, it’s over for me now. I’ve become so strong all of a sudden. How is Hei Duzi going to kill me?”

He got up and approached Hei Duzi once again. The bowl that was clearly much dimmer than before smashed over once more.

With a crisp clang, the alms bowl bounced back upon hitting Song s.h.i.+.

Other than the buzzing in his head and a few strands of hair that had fallen off from the course of impact, Song s.h.i.+ was completely fine.

“Sigh, Since I’m now at the same level of the artifacts. You can’t kill me with just a smash.”

He sighed and slapped the alms bowl away. He took a step forward and mobilized the True Energy in his body, then he jumped over and threw a punch.

As the mist churned, Hei Duzi discovered that he could no longer dodge the golden fist coming towards him that was engulfed in flames.

He did not panic. Instead, his eyes lit up.

“How dare you get close to me!”

He was delighted. His body was that of an Iron Skinned Gu Corpse. Wasn’t this person courting death by getting close?

His expression hardened and he subconsciously raised his hand to grab Song s.h.i.+’s fist.

Crack!

Under his shocked gaze, his claw broke away like rotten wood. With a bang, his body shattered into pieces.

His Iron Skinned Gu Corpse body was actually destroyed by a single punch from Song s.h.i.+!
