The blood-red stick and the lightning sword light clashed, and the air suddenly condensed. The surrounding mud crumbled and floated in the air. The surrounding several hundred meters turned into a gravity-free zone. Even the Blood Demon Doppelganger, which was waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack, was instantly affected, as if it had sunk into a swamp.
Ka!
As if dozens of thunderbolts had gathered together, the condensed air suddenly evaporated. A berserk shockwave spread out in all directions at five times the speed of sound. This kind of frightening destructive power was enough to make any Astral Reaching expert tremble in fear. Because of the clash between the two, a thousand meters wide and two to three hundred meters tall hole appeared in the ground. As for the mud and rocks, they were all shaken into powder. It was as if a faint red whirlwind had filled the entire hole.
It had to be said that the Blood Demon Doppelganger's luck was quite bad. It had been hovering around Ye Chen the whole time, looking for an opportunity to attack. Unfortunately, before it could find the opportunity, it had already lost its life. If the shockwave's strongest might was ten, then the Blood Demon Doppelganger had suffered at least eighty percent, directly annihilating into nothingness.
In the center of the hole, where the two had exchanged blows, snaking lightning snakes burst forth. The small ones were as thick as an arm and several dozen meters long, while the big ones were as thick as a waist and several hundred meters long. With a certain point as the center, the entire hole was covered in dense lightning snakes. As each lightning snake lashed out, the air was instantly torn apart and evaporated, leaving behind several dozen meters to several hundred meters deep scorch marks on the ground.
Puff!
As the lightning snakes filled the sky, Master Blood Demon's chest was scorched black. He opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of smoke before flying high in the air.
"It's unexpectedly powerful. An ordinary mid grade sword can amplify attack power by thirty to forty percent. The thundercloud mentality I've comprehended is secretly compatible with this thunder attribute mid grade sword, pushing the attack power to a whole new level, reaching above forty percent. But what's more important is not this. Using this thunder attribute mid grade sword to display Sky Shattering Clouds gives me a carefree feeling, like a fish in water. Some obstructions are naturally eliminated. As soon as I use it, Sky Shattering Clouds naturally fused to the seventh style." Ye Chen took a deep breath. The Sky Shattering Clouds had been fused to the seventh movement. According to his estimation, it would be equivalent to the power of the eighth movement of the Green Lotus Sword Arts, Green Lotus Sprouting. Moreover, it would not be eighty percent, but one hundred percent.
In terms of moves and mentality, Ye Chen's achievement in Sky Shattering Clouds was enough to compete with Extreme Astral Reaching experts. He was one step closer to his goal of dominating the Astral Reaching realm.
"How is this possible? How did his combat power suddenly increase by so much? Even if he possesses a mid-grade Prized artefact, he shouldn't be this powerful." Although Master Blood Demon had blocked Ye Chen's frontal attack, that fierce thunder snake had pierced through his protective Zhen Yuan and caused him a lot of damage.
"Blood Demon Doppelganger, form!"
Having no time to tend to his injuries, Master Blood Demon fished out a blood-red bead from his storage ring. The bead shattered and blood mist pervaded the air, slowly condensing into a human figure.
It was the Blood Demon Avatar.
However, the grade of this Blood Demon Avatar couldn't compare to the one that had died. It was merely equivalent to a blood demon that had just stepped into the upper realm, and its battle power was similar to that of an ordinary early Astral Reaching expert.
Master Blood Demon had roamed South Rudra Region for decades. It wasn't that he had never experienced the death of a Blood Demon Avatar. However, for him, the death of a Blood Demon Avatar was indeed heartbreaking, but it didn't affect him too much. This was because he had the ability to refine high-grade blood demons into Blood Demon Beads. At present, he still had three Blood Demon Beads in his storage ring. By crushing them, he would be able to condense a new Blood Demon Avatar, making preparations for using the Major Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art.
Putting the deep blue longsword back into its scabbard, Ye Chen took out the second sword according to his senses. This sword had a clear color, and was clearly a wood attribute mid-grade artifact. The brilliance emitted from it wasn't sharp, but it was exceptionally tenacious, like the weeds of a wasteland, endlessly growing.
"The thunder attribute mid-grade sword is compatible with Sky Shattering Clouds, and the wood attribute mid-grade sword is compatible with Green Lotus Sword Arts. Let's test out its power first."
As soon as the deep blue longsword entered his hand, the Green Lotus Zhen Yuan in Ye Chen's body produced a subtle reaction with it. It was a sign of incomparable compatibility. Ye Chen wasn't the least bit surprised. Green Lotus Sword Arts was indeed a cultivation technique for sword artists, but it wasn't that it didn't have an attribute. This attribute was precisely the wood attribute.
Therefore, among all the attributes, only the wood attribute was the most suitable for Ye Chen.
"Green Lotus Splitting Mountain!"
Raising the longsword high, Ye Chen slashed down.
The earth split open like a canyon, and the sword light imprinted with a huge green lotus directly split the void in two, attacking Master Blood Demon.
"Major Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art, break for me!"
Bear!
The Blood Demon Doppelganger suddenly shrunk by a size. Boundless blood light converged on Master Blood Demon's body, burning fiercely. Its frightening might far surpassed the Minor Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art. In fact, although the Minor Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art seemed powerful, it had a flaw that was neither big nor small. This flaw was that it couldn't substantially increase an Astral Reaching expert's battle power. After all, Master Blood Demon himself was only at the peak of late Astral Reaching realm. How could a self-created martial skill be perfect? However, the Major Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art was different. It was a martial skill that Master Blood Demon had obtained by chance, and its grade wasn't high earth grade, but peak earth grade. Without the Major Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art, Master Blood Demon wouldn't be considered too powerful among peak Astral Reaching experts, and wouldn't have been so glorious in the past.
Blood-red flames blazed on the mountain-like club. The flames seemed to have spirituality, condensing into clusters of skulls. These skulls were the size of a water tank, making the club seem several dozen meters long. Under Master Blood Demon's brandishing, it loudly smashed towards the sword light.
Rumble!
The whole cave had completely collapsed. Roaring Qi power hurricanes soared into the sky, tearing apart layer after layer of tunnels. A lot of Late Astral Reaching experts were caught in the range of the shockwaves. Some were lightly wounded, while others were heavily shredded into pieces by the overlapping Qi power.
"Who is fighting? This commotion is way too frightening! "
"It seems to be Master Blood Demon. Could it be Blood Sword?"
"It should be more or less the same. In this burial mound, I'm afraid only Blood Sword could contend against Master Blood Demon. Both of them are famous for their ruthlessness."
The commotion was too big, and more than one or two people had sensed it. More than eighty percent of the people knew that there were two frightening peak Astral Reaching experts battling. However, they couldn't think of anyone who could be Master Blood Demon's opponent. So, they naturally thought of Blood Sword.
Blood Sword frowned. One of them was Master Blood Demon, while the other was very unfamiliar. Perhaps it was an ancient warrior who had been cultivating for many years.
"Interesting! I wonder when such a peak expert would appear in the South Rudra Region. "
Blood Sword's figure flashed, cutting apart any obstacle in front of him as he rapidly approached the battlefield.
"That youngster is indeed frightening. Even Master Blood Demon couldn't do anything to him. Forget it, there are so many treasures in this burial mound. There is no need to provoke them." Zhang Xuan heard the commotion behind him and clicked his tongue.
With the amplification of Major Blood Demon Body Separating Great Art, Master Blood Demon finally managed to block out Ye Chen's sword. At this moment, he was hesitating whether continuing to fight with Ye Chen was worth it or not. He was conceited, but he was not conceited to the point of being ignorant. Killing a slightly weaker peak Astral Reaching expert was already extremely difficult, and the success rate was less than seventy percent. If he wanted to kill Ye Chen, it would not be easy. As long as he could ensure that he wouldn't get injured, it would be fine.
"Indeed, a mid rank wood attribute great sword is the most suitable for me. A single Green Lotus Mountain could contend against Master Blood Demon's full power attack."
Wave after wave of Green Lotus Zhen Yuan poured into the deep blue longsword. The sword aura on Ye Chen's body was endless, showing signs of becoming more and more intense.
…
In a place very deep underground.
Shoo!
A slender blood shadow flashed past. With a puff sound, a Late Astral Reaching expert's forehead was pierced through, and all of his profound yuan was devoured cleanly.
At the same time, the same thing was happening in other places.
A few hundred meters below Ye Chen, Zhang Xuan roared, "Piss off!"
Arcs of light flashed, crisscrossing everywhere.
Puff!
The slender blood shadow's speed was too fast. Zhang Xuan only saw a blur before his eyes as something drilled into his body, and his profound yuan was rapidly drained.
Nearby, Blood Sword was also attacked by the slender blood shadow.
"Not good! It's the Blood Evil Beast!"
Blood Sword was always calm and battle-hungry. However, at this moment, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to escape, as far as possible.
The slender blood shadow would not let Blood Sword escape so easily. It pierced through his shoulder, and this was only because Blood Sword's speed was too fast. Otherwise, this attack would not have pierced through his shoulder, but his forehead or heart.
"Flowing Light Blood Escape!"
At the moment of life and death, a frightening light burst out from Blood Sword's eyes. He sliced through the slender blood shadow with one sword, and his body turned into a blood red sword light, his speed increasing by two folds.
Boom!
The ground was broken open as Blood Sword rushed to the place where Ye Chen and Master Blood Demon were fighting.
"Blood Sword!" Fear flashed through Master Blood Demon's face. Before Ye Chen showed up, he cared about Blood Sword the most. Seeing him here, his vigilance increased, as he was afraid that Blood Sword and Ye Chen would join hands and kill him in the Mass Burial Mound.
Blood Sword acted as if he did not see Master Blood Demon at all, and continued to escape crazily.
"What's going on? He's wounded! " Ye Chen saw that there was a bloody hole on the left shoulder of the Blood Sword Artist. With the latter's power that was not weaker than the Blood Demon, who would be able to wound him? No, the Blood Sword Artist was escaping. Something was catching up. Ye Chen's scalp went numb. Without thinking, he followed closely behind the Blood Sword Artist. He released his powerful soul power, and a thin blood shadow that was dozens of meters long traveled at a horrifying speed under the ground. Ye Chen could sense a threat that he had never felt before. He had a feeling that if he was not lucky, he would die in the graveyard.
"Ah! It's a Blood Evil Beast! "
Master Blood Demon roared with an unimaginable fear in his voice. With a boom, he also started to run. In order to increase his speed beyond his peak, he had even ignited his own blood and Qi.
Shoo!
The slender blood shadow caught up. The wrist-thick blood shadow split into three, chasing after the three like a forked tentacle.
Without any suspense, the three were all wounded. Blood Sword's left leg was pierced through, and Master Blood Demon's abdomen was pierced through. Ye Chen was slightly better off. He had relied on his Separating Shadow Flying Art's super dodging ability, and his arm had only been scratched slightly. However, it had already taken away a lot of his profound qi, which was the foundation of a warrior's cultivation.
Ye Chen took in a deep cold breath. It was too powerful!
The three of them were powerful enough to survive one attack from the Blood Evil Beast. However, the others did not have this ability.
"Run! The Blood Evil Beast is coming out! "
"Save me!"
All of a sudden, waves of screams arose from the Mass Burial Mound.
