148 Rain of blood. (2/2)
Li Yang's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the scene, not because of the fact that Xing Yuyen was losing this quickly, but because of what he could feel from the blood that was raining down. It was completely normal Demonic beast blood, it didn't have an ounce of Divine Beast aura in it. Was this Xing Yuyen really not a Divine Beast, could a normal Demonic beast really reach such a level of strength? Fang Xiulan suddenly took a quick step forward, blue feathers appearing on the back of her left hand as she waved it.
The rain of blood suddenly froze above them, the frozen droplets freezing mid-air and stretching out, connecting with each other and forming a large shield above them. A thick white tentacle suddenly pierced through space above them just as the shield finished forming, crashing into the thick shield and cracking it. Li Yang guessed that the tentacle's purpose was to suck up all the blood that rained down, it would likely have shattered the shield almost instantly if it was sent out to attack them.

Fang Xiulan didn't stop after blocking the tentacle, stretching out her other hand, which also started to sprout blue feathers. She clapped her hands together in a soft manner, but the simple motion caused ripples to spread throughout the surrounding space. The entire island, as well as the water for at least 100 kilometers around them all, froze instantly after Fang Xiulan clapped her hands. Surprisingly enough, the tentacle that had crashed into the wall of ice was unable to escape the same fate, freezing solid in less than a second and then scattering to the wind as tiny ice crystals.
Li Yang's eyebrow rose in surprise when he saw the scene, his gaze drifting towards Fang Xiulan and the feathers on her hands. Now that he looked closer, he saw that the feathers were actually formed from tiny ice crystals stacked so densely that they were almost impossible to discern with the naked eyes. He also noticed that Fang Xiulan's normally green eyes had turned a transparent blue, a chilly sensation seeping into Li Yang's soul as he looked at her eyes. Li Yang stretched out one hand and pinched the feathers on her arm, muttering somewhat quietly.
”So you've strengthened it even further...can't have been easy.”
The truth was that while the Liang tribe was indeed the first new Demon Warriors born since the fall of the Devil's Gate sect, they weren't the first Demon Warriors that Li Yang had ever created. The first Demon Warriors he ever made were the two abandoned and starving twins he picked up and raised as his own sisters. Fang Xiulan's lips curled up slightly in response to Li Yang's words, her chest puffing out in pride.
”Hehe, did you think we would just sit around and do nothing without you? You wouldn't believe me if I told you how many planets and galaxies we scoured in search of beasts that would be suitable as upgrades. Only the strongest would be good enough, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to take down Jing Yimu.”
The two twins made sure to lay low after the death of Li Yang, scouring countless planets for beasts that could help them grow stronger, sharpening their fangs and claws so that they could sink them into the throats of those that killed Li Yang. They even faked a falling out and a long-lasting hatred just to trick everyone into thinking that they were fully focused on each other. They had already managed to kill four of the other people involved in Li Yang's death, but Jing Yimu still eluded them, the two continuing to sharpen their fangs in the dark.
The group quickly continued to flee after Fang Xiulan launched her attack, Mao Tengzou had most definitely noticed them after that move. Fang Ying's law of space rapidly brought them closer to the exit, the group reaching the first island they arrived on after only another four teleportations.
The Devil's Grasp Vine was still lingering within the island, but the pressure unleashed by Mao Tengzou and Xing Yuying seemed to have scared it so much that it didn't even dare show itself. Now they just had to go a few kilometers up into the air and then they would be automatically sucked out of this place and return to a somewhat safer place.
But just as they raised their heads and Fang Ying started to channel her Qi, an eardrum-shattering roar echoed over the entire Ocean God's Graveyard. The group managed to move their gazes just in time to see Xing Yuyen's body get torn in half right down the middle, his rain dyeing the entire sky and ocean red as it hailed down. But even when he was torn apart like that, Xing Yuyen managed to remain alive, a testament to how unearthly strong of a Demonic beast he was.
Shortly after Xing Yuyen was torn in two, the sky in the Ocean God's Graveyard suddenly split open, a massive black crack spreading out to cover almost the entire sky. The crack resembled a disdainful smirk that looked down on creation itself, a figure appearing from the depths of the crack, bringing with it a pressure so horrifying that it silenced and froze everything inside the Ocean God's Graveyard, even the raining blood was forced to halt in front of the approaching figure.
