A loud, muffled boom rang out.
The projection of the small mountain smashed into the ground, crushing the black disc beneath it.
In the blink of an eye, a cloud of dust and rubble rose into the air.
When the projection of the small mountain transformed into a streak of yellow light and flew back into the earthen yellow bead, the short Fiend sucked in a breath of cold air once again.
The protruding disc, which had been formed from two black Dark Tools, had been crushed into a thin, round pancake that was deeply embedded into the ground.
The taller Fiend had also been crushed into nothingness by the impact.
Upon seeing this, how could the short Fiend not realize how terrifyingly powerful his opponent was?
He let out a cry of alarm and quickly changed his hand sign in fear. The black beastly claws under his feet transformed into a magic wheel that rotated rapidly. It carried his body as it transformed into a streak of black light and fled in the direction he came from.
"Don't you think it's a little too late for you to run away now that you've followed me all the way here?"
Liu Ming chuckled coldly as he made a hand seal, and the Mother-Child Yin Spirit Sword flew out of his sleeve. His body swayed, and he landed on the flying sword.
He then made a series of hand seals, and the flying sword under his feet transformed into a streak of grey light that shot off into the distance. His speed seemed to be even faster than the short Fiend's.
The distance between him and the short Fiend, which was originally only about 300 meters, rapidly shortened in the span of two or three breaths.
The short Fiend naturally noticed this as well, and in his astonishment, he immediately spat out a mouthful of Blood Essence, which he infused into the wheel beneath his feet, and his speed instantly increased drastically.
A cold look appeared in Liu Ming's eyes as he made another hand seal. A pair of silver fleshy wings appeared on his back, and he shot off into the distance as a streak of silver and grey light.
After just a few flashes, he was already less than 300 meters behind the short Fiend.
The short Fiend was greatly alarmed by this, and he abruptly swung his short staff behind him. The staff instantly swelled to 300 meters in length, and countless mountain-like staff projections appeared, all of which shot directly toward Liu Ming.
Black gas rolled out from Liu Ming's body. His figure blurred and turned into 4 phantasms at the same time. He and the clone phantasms flickered at the same time, then they disappeared on the spot. The rod shadows that attacked him suddenly missed.
In the next instant, spatial fluctuations erupted around the short Fiend at the same time, and three Liu Ming figures appeared on grey flying swords. They surrounded the short Fiend in a triangular formation, and all of them smiled at him in unison.
The short Fiend was greatly alarmed, and he hastily rubbed his hands together before abruptly slapping his own body a few times. Immediately after that, a black shield appeared over his body, and he solemnly swung his staff several times at the surrounding projections.
Shadowy shadows of pitch-black rods once again appeared around him, turning into stormy waves that swept toward the three "Liu Ming" s.
In this moment of desperation, the short Fiend's staff projections were also extraordinarily powerful, and they pierced through Liu Ming's body at an incredible speed. However, the three "Liu Ming" disappeared at the same time, and it turned out that they were only three afterimages.
"Not good!"
The short Fiend's expression flickered with astonishment. He hastily looked up, and discovered that Liu Ming was standing in midair in the form of a seven-foot-tall man. At the same time, a gray sword light that was more than 30 meters long was slashing down towards him without any hesitation.
Before the sword light even reached him, an enormous sword intent was already bearing down on him.
Even though the short Fiend had a black shield around him to protect himself, he didn't dare to take such a terrifying sword attack head-on.
"Shua!" His face turned pale and bloodless, but he immediately clenched his teeth, and the black stick in his hand left his hand.
"Explode!"
A ferocious look flashed across the short Fiend's face as he made a hand seal.
As soon as he uttered the word, the black staff shuddered and exploded amid a deafening boom.
A pitch-black ball of light that resembled a blazing sun appeared in the air above the short Fiend, giving off an astonishing aura.
The gray sword light was instantly engulfed by the pitch-black ball of light!
Liu Ming, who was hovering in midair, frowned. He flapped his silver wings and shot up into the air, evading the pitch-black ball of light.
Just as the short Fiend was about to take advantage of this opportunity to cast another hand seal and escape, a sharp gust of wind suddenly assaulted him from the back of his head.
Suddenly, a sharp gust of cold wind attacked the back of his head, and he felt a slight chill on his neck. A small grey sword had pierced through the back of his neck!
It was none other than the subordinate sword of the Yin Spirit Child-Mother Sword!
The short Fiend's eyes widened, as if he didn't want to die just like that. However, his corpse fell heavily from the sky, leaving a trail of blood behind it.
In midair, Liu Ming waved his hand expressionlessly, and the combined Yin Spirit Mother-Child Swords were summoned back to him. Then, he swooped down again.
He put away the short Fiend's storage tool and the black beast claw that he had dropped. Then, he released his divine sense and scanned the surrounding area with a radius of about five kilometers.
After confirming that his battle with the two Fiends hadn't attracted the attention of other Fiends, the short Fiend let out a sigh of relief.
He immediately held a high-grade spirit stone in one hand and began to recover his magic power. With a flip of his other hand, he took out the Jade Slips and carefully examined them with his divine sense.
Moments later, Liu Ming put away the Jade Slips and began to ponder.
According to the map, he would have to fly around the Valley of Absolute Darkness for another month or so, and then he would be able to reach his destination, the Nether River.
However, he would have to pass through the Stalwart Heaven Prairie, which Bi Yan had mentioned.
Although he might encounter many Ghost tribes along the way, he was confident that he would be able to hide his aura with the help of the Che Huan Totem. As long as he was careful, he wouldn't encounter any problems.
Furthermore, even if he was discovered, he would be able to escape easily, as long as it wasn't a Celestial Phenomenon Ghost.
After making up his mind, Liu Ming didn't stay here for long. He put away his flying swords, formed hand incantations, and turned into a streak of black light. Before long, he disappeared into the horizon.
Fearing that he might run into other Fiends, especially those from Cold Water City and Raging Flame City, Liu Ming didn't travel along the route near the Valley of Absolute Darkness. Instead, he took a large detour.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye.
When Liu Ming passed by a gray and desolate mountain range, a violent collision sound of Fa Li suddenly came from a distance of more than ten miles away.
It seemed that two beams of light, one red and one blue, were colliding with each other, like thunder on a dry land.
"Someone is fighting in this place. Could it be the escort team that chased me here …" Liu Ming's face changed slightly, and he stopped.
He pondered for a moment, and a cyan light appeared on his shoulder. He displayed the Che Huan Totem Secret Technique and concealed his aura. Soon, he turned into a looming light, and quietly sneaked over.
He soon approached the place where the fight was taking place, and hid behind a boulder. When he looked at the battlefield, his face changed slightly.
Within a few kilometers ahead, several small mountains had collapsed, and the ground had been hit with many huge pits. The air was filled with smoke, and it was a mess.
When he looked up, Liu Ming was startled.
There were two people fighting fiercely in the battlefield. The red light was the leader of Cold Moon City, Leng Meng, and the other was the leader of Cold Water City, the blue-robed giant, Lan Xu.
What surprised Liu Ming even more was that at this moment, half of the muscular man in blue robe was bathed in blood. His face was red, and he looked a little tired. On the contrary, Leng Meng looked calm and relaxed.
"Why are these two people here?"
A hint of astonishment flashed across Liu Ming's eyes. According to his recollection, these two Fiend leaders should have been at the center of the battle when he had left. How did they end up fighting one on one in this place in the blink of an eye?
His eyes stopped on the blue-robed giant for a moment, and then fell on Leng Meng, and his eyes flashed.
At this moment, Leng Meng, who was 30 feet tall, was covered in a blood-red light, which looked like liquid flowing slowly.
In addition, there were nine identical blood-red phantoms floating around him. They looked real and illusory, and looked very strange.
Moreover, each of the blood-red phantoms exuded spiritual pressure that was no less than that of the Jin Dan Fiends.
"This seems to be a Blood Dao Cultivation Method …"
Liu Ming couldn't help but think of the magic power of the Blood Emperor, which he had fought before.
"Good, I didn't expect that we would still underestimate you, Leng Meng. You are indeed the strongest cultivator below the Celestial Phenomenon Realm in Cold Moon City! I didn't expect that you have cultivated the Blood Nethersutra to this level, and even refined nine Blood Nethersutras! "The blue-robed giant said coldly as he glanced at the blood-red phantoms around Leng Meng.
Leng Meng sneered and didn't answer. His body flashed, and he rushed toward the blue-robed giant with the nine blood-red phantoms.
The blue-robed giant's pupils shrank, and he said coldly, "You have been hiding your strength, and even sacrificing your subordinates, just for this …"
The blue-robed giant's pupils shrank, and he said in a cold voice, "The City Lord specially gave me this Blood Spirit Banner to ensure that the tribute this time is absolutely safe. However, I didn't expect that your Cold Water City and Raging Flame City would join hands to attack me. The tribute team of Cold Moon City has been destroyed, but it doesn't matter. As long as I kill you and seize the tribute from Cold Water City, it should be able to slightly appease the City Lord's anger," Leng Meng said slowly, word by word.
As soon as he finished speaking, a blood-red light flashed in his hand, and a 10 feet long blood-red banner slowly rose from his body. He then opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of Blood Essence, which turned into a blood mist and disappeared into the blood-red banner.
In an instant, the blood-red banner shone with blood-red light, and its body swelled up.
After a few flashes, it turned into a huge blood-red banner that was dozens of feet long. It was as thick as a bucket, and it was filled with killing intent!
Puff! Puff!
Several beams of blood-red light suddenly surged out of the blood-red banner, and they fused with the blood-red phantoms around Leng Meng.
The nine-headed phantoms suddenly shone with blood-red light, and they let out beast-like roars. Their bodies, which were originally taller than a person, suddenly grew to 10 feet tall. Then, with a few whooshes, they flashed toward the blue-robed giant.
The blue-robed giant's face sank, and he quickly formed a seal with both hands. At the same time, he solemnly muttered an incantation. The blue bead above his head shone brightly again, and it formed a funnel-shaped blue cloud. It poured down and enveloped the giant, and the cloud rolled away.
Seeing this, Leng Meng sneered.
