144 Decapitation (1/2)

”The world shall burn and drown in blood!”

Facing the country’s most gifted martial artist thus far, Blood Demon did not dare to hold back his abilities. His opening move was the highest level of the Blood Magic Technique.

”Voom voom!”

Streaks of blood appeared in a shield surrounding him, making it look like he was engulfed in flames. It was quickly expanding as Blood Demon charged towards Fang Yuan.

Even though this was not the blistering Yang fire, it was the more lethal and virulent Yin fire. Once it contacts the skin, it would cause the flesh and bone to disintegrate instantly.

”This is indeed the Blood Magic Technique!”

Looking at this, Fang Yuan’s eye lid jumped.

The spiritual spell used by Blood Demon were similar to those in Fang Yuan’s Blood Magic Manual. They were after all from the same source. Of course, in comparison, it was evident that Blood Demon had already mastered the skills to the highest levels while Blood Killer and company were not even worthy of being his disciples.

However, to use this technique against him might seem very surprising.

After all, the Blood Magic Manual was with him!

”Rains of heaven!”

In response, Fang Yuan steadily made a hand gesture and a layer of rain and cloud appeared.

”Haha...Did you think my flames were normal fire?”

Looking at this, Blood Demon broke into a mocking smirk. It was as though he was disdainful of Fang Yuan for underestimating him. However, his smirk widened into a shocked look of disbelief.

This was because under Fang Yuan’s manipulations, relentless drops of rain poured out of the clouds into the centre of the blood-coloured flames.

”Splash!”

After a few huge loud explosions, the toxic flames that could engulf the entire world were extinguished. What was left were the white fumes that were beginning to disperse.

”How is this possible?”

Blood Demon was panic-stricken.

Not only was Fang Yuan just a novice at spiritual spells. More significantly, he only used a simple spiritual disciple technique to successfully counter the Blood Magic Technique. This was extremely intolerable to Blood Demon.

Bead of cold sweat were beginning to form on his forehead.

Based on what he felt, the drops of rain were incredibly compact and tough. Yet the rainfall was also as flexible and nimble as a fish. It went straight for the weak point of his spell and completely caused it to fall apart. It was like hot knife cutting through butter.

If he had heard of the classic tale about the chef carving the cow’s carcass, it would definitely be more surprised and shocked than he already was.

This was because Fang Yuan only used a very common technique which he had practised and mastered to perfection. Furthermore, he did not expand a significant portion of his energy and powers to do so.

”This spiritual spell...”

Huge beads of cold perspiration flowed from Blood Demon’s forehead. He felt as though Fang Yuan had seen through him already.

”You have killed many innocents for no reason and committed several other heinous crimes. Today I will serve you the justice you deserve...Of course, these are not the main reasons. Who asked you to provoke me first!”

Fang Yuan smiled, and a wavering streak of green light flew out from his palm.

”Crap!”

Blood Demon retreated instantly, and a dark red light appeared from his body, ”Heavenly Blood Shield!”

After setting up this defence, he turned on his heels and sped off without turning back.

How could he fight against such an opponent? He would not dare to fight against Fang Yuan ever again in his life.

After all, to fight against an opponent who could see through him was enough of a hellish experience.

After experiencing it once, Blood Demon did not wish to go through it a second time.

However, it was a pity as Fang Yuan was not going to let him off so easily.

”Go!”

With his command, the streak of green light became extremely vibrant and flexible. It skirted along the sides of the red shield and caused it to vibrate violently. Then, the green light cut through the shield with ease.

”Snap!”

Blood Demon was taken aback. He saw his shield break open like an egg shell to reveal the green light. It looked like a weirdly shaped green dagger.

”Ancient Green Serpent Dagger?”

Of course, he was familiar with this weapon which was used by Lu Renjia formerly.

”Pooh!”

The Ancient Green Serpent Dagger flew towards him from extremely tight angles.

Amidst all these, Blood Demon turned and bent over his waist into a painful angle as he attempted to dodge the weapon.

Even so, the dagger pierced through his shoulder and sent blood splattering into the air.

Fang Yuan panted violently like a hopeless beast. He was trying desperately to find a way to survive and was at the same time extremely dumbfounded by Fang Yuan’s abilities.

”You have already reached the peak of the Elemental Gathering Realm?”

Glaring at Fang Yuan, these words came out of his mouth with great difficulty as he refused to acknowledge the facts.

Fang Yuan breaking his spiritual spell earlier could be due to his carelessness and Fang Yuan’s good fortune. However, with the dagger penetrating through his defences, it showed that Fang Yuan was indeed capable and there were no excuses this time.

Without waiting for Fang Yuan to reply, several wounds on his body opened up and blood flowed from them. It was almost as though he was dipped into blood.

”Hehe, I will remember you! Blood Escape Technique!”

With this shout, Blood Demon transformed into a ray of red light and shot away with amazing speed.

Previously, he also used a similar technique while escaping from Liu Yan and Taoist Mu Li. Even though Taoist Mu Li had a spiritual bird, he was also unable to catch him.

”Red-eyed White Bird King! Rage!”

At this point, it was evident that Blood Demon might not be that lucky again.

With a shout, Fang Yuan leapt onto the Red-eyed White Bird King.
