Almost at the instant Han Fei Zi retreated, the red meadow under Su Ming's feet spread out at an incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, it surpassed Han Fei Zi and covered an area of 100 feet around the mountain cave from beneath her feet.
At that moment, Han Fei Zi was within those 100 feet.
Han Fei Zi only felt her vision blur. Everything in her eyes had completely changed at this moment. Outsiders did not know what she had seen, but from the shock and bewilderment in her eyes, one could tell that Han Fei Zi's mind was definitely shaken at this moment.
Su Ming did not attack, but when he did, he struck like lightning!
There was no enmity between him and Han Fei Zi, but Su Ming knew that if he had not known about the danger beforehand, then he would have definitely been killed when Han Fei Zi walked into the mountain cave, completely unaware of what was happening.
This had nothing to do with enmity. This was a matter of profit!
He Feng was a huge profit. The benefits Su Ming obtained from his bag alone were enough to make a lot of people go mad, not to mention the great treasure!
The moment Han Fei Zi was enveloped by the red meadow, Su Ming's lifted right hand had already found the location of the Three Evils. He swung it down towards the northwest.
The moment his right hand swung down, the blood veins in Su Ming's body gathered into one and surged out of his body. They returned to the northwest and disappeared without a trace.
However, right at the moment his right hand landed, Han Fei Zi, who was covered by the red meadow and whose expression had changed, had killing intent appear in her eyes. As she lifted her hand, clouds and fog immediately surrounded her body. However, at that moment, the clouds and fog let out a bang, and a huge crack appeared out of nowhere in the middle. Han Fei Zi's figure could be clearly seen within that crack.
Even if she was covered by a white veil, her face was still pale. Shock appeared in her eyes. She knew clearly that the clouds she cast seemed normal, but in truth, it was very difficult to break through. Even the elders in the tribe would not be able to easily tear through it unless they used a powerful Berserker Art.
However, this invisible enemy in front of her, no matter what method he used, was able to do this. This person definitely could not be underestimated. What shocked her even more was that as the clouds were cut open, a strong sense of danger suddenly came, as if there was an invisible crack that was trying to devour her.
Han Fei Zi did not have the time to cast any powerful Berserker Arts. All of this happened in an instant. At the moment of crisis, she bit the tip of her tongue and coughed out a mouthful of blood, which turned into a blood-red statue of the God of Berserkers before her.
More accurately speaking, that statue of the God of Berserkers was a woman. Her face could not be seen clearly, but the moment she appeared, a piercing light erupted from her body, and as if it had crashed into Su Ming's Execution of Three Evils, loud booming sounds rang out.
At the same time, Han Fei Zi lifted her right hand and pointed at the center of her brows. Immediately, a golden light shone from the center of her brows. As it spilled down, it looked as if it had turned her entire body golden. The moment the golden light appeared, she retreated swiftly. With one step, it was as if she was stepping on air, and she walked out of the red meadow that was 100 feet around Su Ming.
Yet it was clear that using the golden light and walking out of the red meadow was a huge burden on Han Fei Zi. The moment she walked out, blood trickled down the corner of her mouth, but she did not stop. She was just about to rush out of the mountain cave.
She had already made up her mind. As long as she could leave the cave, then once she could catch her breath in the outside world, she would cut the person who dared to ambush her into pieces!
Yet there was no way Su Ming would let her leave safely. The red meadow could not trap her, and the Execution of Three Evils had been scattered by the woman's statue of the God of Berserkers, but Su Ming's lightning fast strike still had a follow-up.
Just as Han Fei Zi was about to rush out and was less than a few dozen feet away from the entrance of the cave, Su Ming took a step forward and closed in on her at an incredible speed. His face was cold, and as he moved forward, he lifted his right hand and pointed at Han Fei Zi.
The moment he pointed, the souls of the Wings of the Moon surrounding Su Ming let out a roar that a normal person would not be able to hear. They rushed out and gathered together to form a gigantic fist. That fist was invisible, but Han Fei Zi could feel it clearly. A glint appeared in her eyes. She lifted her right hand and quickly drew a circle around her body. Instantly, clouds appeared out of nowhere and turned into a ring of clouds. It was about to crash into the fist formed by the souls of the Wings of the Moon.
Yet at that moment, a cold sneer appeared on Su Ming's lips. As he chased after her, the Branding Art spread outwards. At the same time, a circular area of 1,000 feet appeared in his mind, and that area shrank towards Han Fei Zi.
This was the only attack recorded in the Branding Art. Su Ming could not tell how effective it was. Even if it was the first time he used it, he had to use it now.
The speed at which the 1,000 feet mark shrank was almost completed in the blink of an eye. The moment it completely covered Han Fei Zi, her body suddenly trembled and pain appeared on her face. She felt as if her head was being pierced by needles, and because of the sudden appearance of this pain, the circle of clouds before her showed signs of dissipating. Before she could force it to stabilize, the fist formed by the souls of the Wings of the Moon collided with it.
With a muffled bang, the ring of clouds crumbled. The fist formed by the Wings of the Moon pierced through the ring of clouds and crashed into Han Fei Zi's chest.
At that moment, a golden light flashed on Han Fei Zi's body. Blood trickled down the corner of her mouth once again, but the chill in her eyes grew stronger. She tumbled backwards, and with that force, she retreated out of the cave.
Yet the moment she retreated from the cave, Su Ming rushed out as well. His body was just a blur in Han Fei Zi's eyes. This was related to Su Ming's speed, but more importantly, it was because Su Ming's Branding Art had been formed on Han Fei Zi's body. This Art's only attack was very powerful. It continuously stabbed into Han Fei Zi's head, causing her vision to become blurry and her face to be filled with pain.
The two of them rushed out of the cave like two long arcs, but Su Ming was faster. Once he caught up to them, he did not say a single word. Instead, he coughed out the mouthful of blood that he had been holding in his mouth all this while.
That mouthful of blood was formed by Su Ming's Berserker Art, Dark Blood Dust. Once he coughed it out, it immediately turned into a large amount of red dust mist that covered the area before Su Ming. With a shocking whistling sound and a penetrating power, it charged towards Han Fei Zi.
From the moment she entered the cave until now, only a few breaths of time had passed. She couldn't even see the enemy clearly, and she was already injured by the other party's continuous attacks. This kind of thing, was something that her pride couldn't accept.
As Su Ming's blood gushed into her face, Han Fei Zi swung her right hand forward as she retreated. As long as she could block him for a moment, she would be able to seize the initiative from her passive state and launch her counterattack.
Yet from the start until now, she did not have a single chance to seize the initiative. Her opponent's attacks were like a storm. Not only did they not seem to be decreasing, they were becoming more and more intense.
'As long as I have a chance!' Han Fei Zi swung her right hand, and the fog appeared and turned into a five-colored mist. Once it crashed into the blood mist, it immediately let out a sizzling sound and dissipated.
Han Fei Zi was about to use this chance to launch her counterattack, but Su Ming had created this battlefield with great difficulty and gained the initiative. He would not give her the chance.
The moment he coughed out that mouthful of blood, Su Ming had already spread his arms wide. The souls of the Wings of the Moon gathered around him and covered his body. He might have looked like he was alone, but he rose into the air as if he was walking on air. He clenched his right hand into a fist and without a single sound, he threw a punch towards Han Fei Zi, who was hiding behind the Dark Blood Dust.
That punch not only contained all the power of Su Ming's Qi, but also the invisible souls of the Wings of the Moon around him. They turned into a gigantic fist and rammed down with a loud bang.
That punch cut off Han Fei Zi's chance to counterattack, forcing her to fight back passively once again. Her entire body was surrounded by clouds as she clashed against Su Ming's punch.
Booming sounds reverberated in the air. Su Ming's body was a blur in the sky, and each punch he threw was faster than the last. Han Fei Zi was completely forced into a passive state. Every time she fought back, she would retreat. There was a freezing glare in her eyes, but she had no choice but to retreat.
She could feel that there were two forces contained in each of Su Ming's punches. The first was the power of Qi, which could be ignored, but the second force was so strange that it made people's hearts tremble.
It did not attack her body, but her soul. It made Han Fei Zi, who was constantly in pain from Su Ming's Branding Art, feel as if her soul was about to scatter.
At that moment, Su Ming threw another punch. The souls of the Wings of the Moon in his body moved together and forced Han Fei Zi back hundreds of feet once again. Then, he spoke for the first time. His dark and hoarse voice echoed in the air.
"He Feng, you lured her here. Why aren't you attacking now? What are you waiting for?!"
If He Feng could hear those words, he would definitely curse Su Ming for being despicable. However, He Feng could not hear him at that moment.
When Han Fei Zi heard those words, panic and anger finally appeared on her face. She had her suspicions since the beginning. Without any hesitation, she instinctively retreated and turned into a ray of golden light that charged forward.
She had a noble status and did not want to take risks. A mysterious enemy who was as powerful as those in the Transcendence Realm had already made her lose the initiative and forced her into a passive state. If He Feng attacked again, then unless she gave up on completing her blood veins and immediately chose to Transcend, it would be difficult for her to win.
Su Ming did not chase after her. His face was pale and blood trickled down the corners of his mouth. He might have gained the initiative in this battle, but every single time his attacks landed on Han Fei Zi, they would be absorbed by the golden light around her body. They would also bounce back in a bizarre manner, causing Su Ming to be continuously injured.
'This woman was hurt by my Branding Art and shaken by the souls of the Wings of the Moon. She was also forced into a passive state because of my trap. Her mind was distracted and she retreated because of He Feng's words. But she's not a normal person. She'll react soon.' Su Ming charged towards the entrance of the cave and put away the two bones into his bag. He grabbed He Feng's body and rushed out of the cave towards the deeper parts of the rainforest.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a cloud charged towards them from the sky. Han Fei Zi's face was as cold as ice as she landed on the cloud. She stood at the spot where they had fought just now and glared at the deeper parts of the rainforest with a murderous look in her eyes.
Ever since she was young, she had never suffered such a great loss. This was also the first time she was forced to retreat by someone. She did not even get to see the person's face. This made her pride unable to accept it.
'This person's level of cultivation isn't high, but his attacks are very secretive. They're on par with those in the Transcendence Realm … He's also very cunning … But no matter who you are, as long as you're near Han Mountain City, I'll definitely find you!' Han Fei Zi's expression gradually calmed down, but the murderous look towards Su Ming remained in her eyes and did not disappear even after a long time had passed.
