Xin Yichuan's face was full of shock. Waves of bloodthirsty killing intent kept attacking his declarative memory, causing him to have the urge to mutilate himself. He had never encountered such a thing before. It was as though he was possessed.
"That is a heretic weapon!"
Xin Yichuan finally realized how terrifying the Blood Dragon Claw in Mo Wen's hand was. It had merely scratched a wound on his body, and a tenth of his Blood Qi had been forcefully sucked away. Evil flames burned on his chest, constantly devouring his life force.
Rip!
Almost without any hesitation, Xin Yichuan tore off a large piece of flesh from his chest. He did not hesitate to expend a large amount of Vital Qi, pouring it into the wound and blocking it. He was afraid that the crimson flames would touch him again.
In an instant, Xin Yichuan's face turned pale. His aura rapidly weakened, and his Vital Qi was directly depleted by half. His entire person seemed to have aged more than ten years.
"You actually used a heretic weapon."
Xin Yichuan looked at Mo Wen with a dark expression. His voice had a hint of age. The damage that the Blood Dragon Claw had done to him was not as simple as it seemed. Even his cultivation might have regressed. It was the first time he had encountered such an evil thing.
"What heretic weapon? It is just a weapon," Mo Wen said lightly. The Blood Clotting Claw was indeed evil. If one was not careful, it could even harm the user. But so what? If it was used righteously, then it was righteously. If it was used wrongly, then it was wrongly.
"Are you not afraid that the Huatian Palace will find you to investigate?" Xin Yichuan said coldly. The Blood Dragon Claw was definitely not an ordinary profound level weapon. It was very likely that it had come from the heretic path.
"You talk too much nonsense. This is not a problem you need to worry about," Mo Wen said lightly.
With a flash, his silhouette disappeared from its original spot. Silhouettes appeared in the heavens and the earth, and every silhouette was gathering towards Xin Yichuan.
Xin Yichuan's pupils shrank and his hair stood on end. Mo Wen's movement techniques were too amazing. Even he could not see through them. Mo Wen's attainments in movement techniques had already reached an unimaginable level.
What he feared the most was still the strange Blood Dragon Claw. Even if he did not die, he would lose a layer of skin.
The fear in his heart rose and he lost his courage. He subconsciously retreated.
However, Mo Wen's Glory of Wind was miraculous. How could it allow the bat to dodge? Like a shadow, the blood of a crimson dragon suddenly appeared in mid-air. The crimson dragon was a few hundred meters long. With a swing of its tail, it directly crushed the bat illusion.
At the same time, an enormous blood dragon claw stretched out from the sky and enveloped Xin Yichuan.
That huge blood dragon claw was only made of blood and did not have any actual attacking power. However, its aura was extremely astonishing. It was as if a real primordial divine dragon had extended its claw downwards. Endless majesty and evil aura swept out. Xin Yichuan felt it the most directly. Under the deterrence of that aura, his movements slowed down.
"Damn it, I'll kill you!"
Xin Yichuan knew that he could not dodge Mo Wen's attack. He hardened his heart. In his rage, he did not retreat but instead advanced, directly colliding with Mo Wen.
"Flaming Meteor."
A scorching aura emanated from Xin Yichuan's body. That aura was like an active volcano that was about to erupt. The greyish-white rock armor on his body instantly turned red. Between the cracks, there seemed to be thick magma flowing out.
Right now, Xin Yichuan was like an active volcano. His entire body was filled with an explosive power. That aura seemed to be able to crush the mountain peaks. Everyone within a radius of a hundred miles could feel a terrifying aura shooting up into the sky. How terrifying was the might of a Martial Arts Grandmaster when he went all out?
"He has actually cultivated such a powerful Fire Attribute martial arts teachings."
The corner of Mo Wen's mouth curled into a cold smile. The aura on his body changed. The next moment, golden light shone for tens of thousands of miles. An extremely hot aura swept out from his body, instantly suppressing the scorching Qi on Xin Yichuan's body. It was like the light from the core of the sun that could even burn the heavens and the earth.
The granite in the square melted bit by bit. In the distance, the palace hall spontaneously combusted. The rocks turned into magma, peeling off the mountain. The entire mountain peak was melting bit by bit.
"What a terrifying flame. Ice and fire in one body. How is this possible?"
Xin Yichuan almost did not dare to believe his eyes. The power in his body was completely suppressed. An even stronger scorching Qi directly suppressed the active volcano in his body.
Rumble.
The two of them collided. Under the situation where Xin Yichuan was being restrained in many aspects, he was basically unable to unleash his full ability in front of Mo Wen. He was directly sent flying.
A crimson claw passed through the Qi wave and ferociously surged into Xin Yichuan's body.
Hiss hiss hiss!
Masses of crimson flames darted out from Xin Yichuan's body, enveloping his body and burning wildly. The crimson flames contained an unparalleled cold aura. It was extremely Yin and extremely evil.
In the crimson flames, Xin Yichuan's face was pale. His body was dispirited and his eyes were dim.
He looked deeply at Mo Wen. Behind him, he extended a palm and slapped it on his chest. A pure power exploded out from his body. That power was the purest source of energy. It was the core source that Xin Yichuan had cultivated for more than a hundred years.
Once that power appeared, the crimson flames that enveloped Xin Yichuan were compressed and dispersed bit by bit. Finally, they completely disappeared from Xin Yichuan's body.
Wah!
Xin Yichuan opened his mouth and spat out a large pool of blood. There was a large amount of filth in the blood, and there were even crimson flames burning on it.
In an instant, Xin Yichuan seemed to have aged significantly. He was like an old man with one foot in the grave. The aura on his body was extremely weak.
"Patriarch!"
Xin Wuji's face was pale as he screamed. He was so scared that his face was drained of all color. The patriarch had actually been beaten to the point of spitting blood and had no choice but to use his Inner Qi and Essence Vitality to keep it a secret. Xin Wuji knew very well what this meant.
The members of the Crimson Star Sect were also dumbfounded. A dignified Martial Arts Grandmaster had actually been turned into such a wretched state by a youth. It was simply too frightening. Was he still human?
"How is this possible? How could he be like this? "
Hu Jiangming, who had fallen at the edge of the square, was completely dumbfounded. He kept muttering to himself, his face ashen.
"You sure are decisive," Mo Wen said plainly.
Xin Yichuan had used half of his Inner Qi and Essence Vitality as a price to dispel the power of the Blood-Clotting Claw from his body. Only then could he preserve his life.
Inner Qi and Essence Vitality were an ancient martial art practitioner's most basic power. If they were lost, it would have a huge impact on an ancient martial art practitioner. It was very likely that because of this injury, Xin Yichuan would never be able to break through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster Second Realm in this lifetime.
Also, it would be very difficult to make up for the loss of so much Inner Qi and Essence Vitality within ten years. His own cultivation might even drop because of this.
"You win."
Xin Yichuan's face was shrouded in a look of dejection. His body emanated an aura of lethargy. He had actually been defeated at the hands of a youth. Could it be that he was really old?
"You can't interfere in the matters of the Crimson Star Sect. Even if you have a Martial Arts Grandmaster companion, isn't that right?" Mo Wen said plainly.
"You are very strong, really very strong. The winner takes all. If you want to kill me or torture me, do as you please. "
Xin Yichuan sighed softly. He now finally understood why Mo Wen had been able to discover the existence of the two of them. It was because this youth was so strong that even he was shocked.
A shadow flickered on the mountain peak. In the blink of an eye, it appeared behind Xin Yichuan. It was a skinny man dressed in black. His entire body was shrouded in black and his face could not be seen.
A cold aura emanated from his body. The aura was not strong, but its quality had reached the level of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
It was obvious that he was the other Martial Arts Grandmaster who had been hiding in the Crimson Star Sect.
After this Martial Arts Grandmaster appeared, he did not say a word. He only stood quietly behind Xin Yichuan, looking at Mo Wen. However, he had no intention of fighting.
"No matter what purpose you have in hiding in the Crimson Star Sect, there is no enmity between us. I also do not want to interfere in your matters. If you leave now, I will not make things difficult for you." Mo Wen did not even look at the man in black. As he spoke, he looked at the members of the Crimson Star Sect, directly ignoring the two Martial Arts Grandmasters.
"Old Sect Leader Huo, your helpers are useless. What else do you have to say?"
Mo Wen waved his hand. The group of Crimson Star Sect elders who had been controlled by the Black Gold Puppet all fell to the ground. There were dozens of them. They were all elders. In the martial arts circle, a stomp of their feet would cause a commotion. Right now, they were even more obedient than kittens. They did not even dare to breathe too loudly.
Huo Qize's expression was mournful. He trembled slightly as he walked out of the crowd. He had never thought that a single decision could cause such a huge disaster.
"Lord Mo Wen, I was blinded by greed and did not recognize an expert. I made a thousand mistakes, and it is all my fault. The martial arts circle announcement was also my idea. It has nothing to do with the various Grand Elders and sect disciples. I am willing to die as an apology and allow you to punish me. However, please let the innocent people of the Crimson Star Sect go. "
With a thud, Huo Qize knelt down on the spot. He lowered his head and spoke with a weary expression. He finally understood the meaning of the phrase "extreme joy turns to sorrow". If he had not arrogantly thought that there were not many sects in the martial arts circle that he could not afford to offend, he would not have been able to send out the annihilation notice without investigating the Dafang Sect's background. Otherwise, he would not have ended up in such a state.
After he had achieved success and recognition, he had completely forgotten about the dangers of the Jianghu and his cautious attitude.
"Not only did you get carried away with your success, but you were also stupid and were easily used by others. For the sake of an arrogant hedonistic young master, Fan Junsheng, you gave up your entire family's life. "
The grudge between Mo Wen and the Crimson Star Sect had only arisen because of Fan Junsheng. In the end, it had escalated to a matter of life and death for the two sects. If Huo Qize had been impartial, the Crimson Star Sect would not have ended up in such a state.
Upon hearing this, Wang Qinghan walked out from the crowd.
"Old Sect Leader Huo, you have been in seclusion for so long that you most likely do not know. Fan Junsheng is arrogant and despotic. He is vicious and greedy. He uses his sister as the young mistress of the Crimson Star Sect to take things by force and commit all sorts of crimes. He has offended many people in the martial arts circle over the years. Many sects are angry because of the Crimson Star Sect but do not dare to speak up. Who knows how many sects in the martial arts circle have placed their hatred on the Crimson Star Sect.
"Also, do you know that Shen Jing is Senior Mo Wen's lover? Fan Junsheng lusted after her beauty and used underhanded means to force her to marry him, causing Shen Jing to commit suicide by ingesting poison. This angered Senior Mo Wen.
"Qinghan knows that with your personality, Old Sect Leader Huo, you will definitely not protect such a person. For things to have come to such a state, it must be because you were provoked by a villain. What a pity."
Wang Qinghan sighed softly. Because of their working relationship with the Dafang Sect, she had investigated the whole story after the Crimson Star Sect sent out the martial arts circle notice. However, she had not expected that the young Martial Arts Grandmaster that she had met earlier was the Dafang Sect's sect leader. (To be continued.)
