Chapter 166: Bloodline Essence
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Fu Zhaoxing had done the same thing, and now he was doing the same thing to Jiao Xiangyuan. Would he stop hitting people if others didn’t hit him first?
However, Yu Doushan’s imposing manner was too terrifying. In such a situation, it was difficult for him not to make a move unless he dodged. But now that everyone was watching, if Jiao Xiangyuan had dodged just now, he would have lost the momentum of this battle and would not have been able to fight anymore.
“You hit me, so I can hit you.”
A sinister voice came out from the blood clot, making one’s entire body go cold. The next moment, the blood clots suddenly gathered together, trying to transform back into a human. At the same time, a bloody hand grabbed Jiao Xiangyuan.
“Bang!”
Jiao Xiangyuan broke through the bloody hand with his sword and appeared in front of Yu Doushan in a flash. He used the Sword Splitting Art again.
Yu Doushan used the same method to deal with his enemies, but it was different when facing Jiao Xiangyuan. Jiao Xiangyuan was much stronger than Fu Zhaoxing. As a disciple at the peak of the Visceral Tempering realm in the Yuanchen Sword Sect, Jiao Xiangyuan’s techniques were extremely exquisite.
Back then, a bloody hand could force Fu Zhaoxing away, but it couldn’t make Jiao Xiangyuan take a step back.
“Boom!”
As Jiao Xiangyuan struck with the Sword Splitting Art, the blood clots that had gathered exploded again. Compared to the previous time, Jiao Xiangyuan’s strength was even stronger this time.
The entire ground shook slightly, and a huge pit appeared. Yu Doushan’s flesh and blood were splattered everywhere, and the original blood clots turned into blood foam.
As the two of them started fighting, the people behind Yu Doushan also rushed over.
“Kill them!”
Guo Linshan shouted and rushed forward. This battle was already unavoidable. Although they did not have the advantage in terms of numbers, they still had slightly more Visceral Tempering realm cultivators on their side.
Thus, the winner and loser would only be known after a real battle.
Chen Fei stood at the back and drew his bow. With just a few arrows, he blew up the rabbit demon at the Marrow Tempering realm.
The power of Chen Fei’s current arrows was not much weaker than the full-powered attack of an ordinary Visceral Tempering realm martial artist. Moreover, the speed of the arrows was extremely fast in this chaotic battle.
The rabbit demons did not have time to react before they were shot in the head. Their bodies swayed and fell to the ground.
Zeng Jingan and the others looked at Chen Fei in surprise. With the strength of these arrows, even if they were to receive them, it would be very difficult. If Chen Fei only targeted them, they would probably not be able to endure more than a few arrows.
Was this the combat strength of a martial artist in the Marrow Tempering realm? Moreover, since when did the sect have such powerful archery skills? He had never seen any martial uncle who specialized in archery.
Even Feng Xiupu’s title was the Green Ridge Sword, not the Green Ridge Bow. Where did Chen Fei’s archery come from?
Chen Fei did not care about the gazes of the others. Instead, he stared at the rabbit demons in the Marrow Tempering realm.
In the next moment, Chen Fei’s expression could not help but change slightly. The few rabbit demons whose heads had been blown off by Chen Fei actually stood up shakily at this moment. As blood flowed, their heads were actually slowly recovering.
Their speed was not as fast as Yu Doushan’s, but they were indeed recovering. In other words, these rabbit demons really had such an ability.
Not only did Chen Fei see it, but everyone else also saw this scene, and a chill involuntarily flashed across their hearts.
“Bloodline can be so domineering? Won’t there be any losses?”
Chen Fei was puzzled, but he did not stop shooting. He first used five arrows to blow up a rabbit demon at the Visceral Tempering realm. Chen Fei wanted to see the difference in recovery speed between the Visceral Tempering realm and the Marrow Tempering realm.
Then, they shot one arrow at a time, shattering the bodies of the rabbit demons in the Marrow Tempering realm who were recovering.
When Zeng Jingan and Mou Yuanchang saw this scene, their eyes almost popped out. They had thought that if they were in Chen Fei’s shoes, they would be able to block a few of his arrows. In the end, Chen Fei told them the truth.
To kill a rabbit demon at the Visceral Tempering realm, only five arrows were needed.
Of course, these rabbit demons did not act as exaggeratedly as Yu Doushan. Compared to the other Visceral Tempering realm cultivators, they were still a lot slower.
However, this was still the Visceral Tempering realm. How could five arrows solve the problem? It was like pouring cold water on their brains, making them sober up a little.
Chen Fei did not pay attention to the change in the mentality of Zeng Jingan and the others. At this moment, his attention was all on these few rabbit demons.
Following the increase in his mental strength by 30%, Chen Fei’s archery skills had indeed improved by another level.
In the past, Chen Fei could only be more sensitive when he was in close combat. He could sense the weaknesses of the enemy and kill them in one blow.
Now that his mental strength had increased, Chen Fei could easily find flaws even from a distance, which greatly increased the threat of his archery.
Otherwise, when he rescued Guo Linshan previously, Chen Fei could only use his bow and arrow to suppress the others. In the end, he still ended the battle with his sword technique.
Guo Linshan was currently fighting Sun Zonghai. Sun Zonghai was no longer the same person he used to be, but Guo Linshan still held onto Sun Zonghai and did not let go, desperately suppressing his attacks.
Guo Linshan couldn’t describe how he felt when Sun Zonghai was possessed and turned into a rabbit demon. There was joy, sadness, and some fear.
“Clang!”
Suddenly, a loud sound of metal clashing rang out. Everyone couldn’t help but turn their attention to the source of the sound and realized that it was coming from Jiao Xiangyuan.
Just a while ago, Jiao Xiangyuan had been forced to retreat. Yu Doushan had already recovered, but Jiao Xiangyuan was the one who was injured.
Jiao Xiangyuan looked at Yu Doushan with a serious expression. This rabbit demon’s learning ability was too strong. Many moves would be seen through by Yu Doushan after being used once or twice, and he would immediately break them.
This forced Yu Doushan to change his moves in order to have an effect on him.
But a big problem now faced Jiao Xiangyuan. Although the new technique could indeed hurt Yu Doushan, every time Yu Doushan was injured, he would immediately recover. It was as if the damage just now was all fake.
Jiao Xiangyuan’s initial thoughts were similar to Chen Fei’s. If you could recover once, could you recover ten or a hundred times? You had to have energy to recover.
However, Jiao Xiangyuan was starting to waver.
He didn’t count the number of times, but Jiao Xiangyuan had dealt fatal damage to Yu Doushan at least dozens of times. Even if the rabbit demon didn’t have any so-called vital points, it would still take some energy to recover from these injuries.
However, Jiao Xiangyuan could not see the loss. Yu Doushan’s speed and strength were still as great as before. As the battle progressed, Jiao Xiangyuan could feel that his opponent was getting stronger and stronger.
If this continued, how could they fight?
The rabbit demon was injured, but it was not injured. It was as if it was immortal. If Jiao Xiangyuan was injured, then he was really injured. Whether it was his inner strength or physical strength, he had consumed a lot of them.
Jiao Xiangyuan realized that he couldn’t outlast his opponent. At least, Jiao Xiangyuan didn’t see a chance to outlast him.
Jiao Xiangyuan realized this himself, and so did the others.
Although they were not facing the most powerful rabbit demon, Yu Doushan, the other rabbit demons also had the ability to recover. They were not as exaggerated as Yu Doushan, but they were not as powerful as Jiao Xiangyuan.
Their situation was shockingly similar to Jiao Xiangyuan’s. He could still barely hold on now, but as time passed, the rabbit demon would definitely be the winner.
Some people had already begun to plan their escape route, but when they thought of the speed that the rabbit demon had displayed just now, it seemed that escaping had become an extravagant hope.
This had directly turned into a desperate situation?
Chen Fei frowned and thought for a moment. His figure flashed and arrived in front of a rabbit demon in the Marrow Tempering realm. He observed the other party’s recovery process at a close distance.
Seemingly sensing a human’s aura, although the rabbit demon’s head had not fully recovered, it still instinctively punched forward at Chen Fei.
The long sword in Chen Fei’s hand flashed, and the rabbit demon’s hands and feet were instantly separated, falling to the ground.
Chen Fei focused his attention and observed. What kind of bloodline was so strong that it could recover at such a fast rate without consuming a single bit of power? Or rather, it could recover at such a fast rate with very little power.
Could it be that even if an Aperture Tempering realm expert came, they could only seal it and not destroy it? Then if the rabbit demons were to become more and their cultivation was higher, wouldn’t they be invincible when they went out?
“Aperture Tempering realm…”
Thinking of the Aperture Tempering realm, Chen Fei’s thoughts suddenly paused. Compared to the Body Tempering Realm, the Aperture Tempering realm’s external performance was the absorption and control of Vital Energy, but internally, it was the flexible use of mental strength.
Therefore, if an Aperture Tempering realm expert discovered that these rabbit demons were difficult to kill, their first action would definitely not be to seal them but to try to attack with divine power.
“Suppress!”
Chen Fei did as he thought without any hesitation. Eternity Moment smashed directly onto the rabbit demon in front of him.
The rabbit demon’s body suddenly stopped. The flesh and blood that were about to gather also stopped.
This was a manifestation of Eternity Moment, which could slow down the other party’s thoughts. This rabbit demon was currently in this state.
Chen Fei carefully observed the other manifestations of the demon rabbit. In this stillness and slowness, Chen Fei could feel the strong mental fluctuations in its flesh and blood.
So, this is one of the reasons why the rabbit demon can recover?”
Chen Fei continued to smash down on the rabbit demon’s broken hand with his core soul energy. This time, the arm didn’t even struggle and stopped there.
Chen Fei felt a wave of movement and disappeared from this arm.
The expression on half of the rabbit demon’s face suddenly became ferocious. From the beginning, no matter how many times he was injured, the other party’s indifferent expression changed for the first time.
Just like when a person was in pain, their expression would change, and they would even shout loudly.
If you hit someone and they didn’t do anything, it was obvious that you didn’t hurt them at all. And now, it was obvious that Chen Fei had really hurt this rabbit demon and injured it.
“So that’s really the case!”
Chen Fei’s face broke into a smile. He flipped his sword and slashed at the rabbit demon’s neck. Other than inner strength, there was also surging core soul energy on the longsword.
“Tsk!”
With a muffled sound, the core soul energy on the sword was exhausted. The rabbit demon’s body stiffened and fell straight to the ground, no longer moving.
Chen Fei turned his head and looked at Yu Doushan in the distance. He finally understood why Yu Doushan had to wait for the others to attack before launching his own attack..
