In the face of Sun Gui’s relentless pursuit, Zhou Feng could only dive into the forest.
During this pursuit, the wound on his chest had temporarily stopped bleeding.
However, this wound was too big and needed to be treated as soon as possible.
‘What should I do? What should I do!?’
As Zhou Feng ran, he was thinking of countermeasures in his heart.
What should he do to deal with this crisis?
“Demon-Devouring Battle Art!”
Without waiting for Zhou Feng to think too long, Sun Gui caught up from behind.
Black Spiritual Qi condensed into a huge claw, attacking his back from behind.
“Demon-Devouring Gu!”
Zhou Feng could only rely on the Demon-Devouring Gu’s power to resolve this crisis.
Sun Gui had mastered the Demon-Devouring Battle Art, so the difference in strength between the two was simply too great.
Under such circumstances, only by relying on the Demon-Devouring Gu’s burst of power could Zhou Feng have a chance of withstanding this attack.
The dormant Demon-Devouring Gu seemed to have heard his voice and instantly burst out with pure Spiritual Qi. Then the Demon-Devouring Armor condensed and withstood Sun Gui’s claw.
The burst of pure Spiritual Qi was accompanied by surging Blood Qi, which healed more than half of Zhou Feng’s chest wound in a few seconds.
The Demon-Devouring Gu’s sudden assistance gave Zhou Feng great confidence.
“Let’s fight!”
Since Zhou Feng couldn’t escape, he could only fight to the death.
At that moment, he chanted the Demon-Devouring Battle Art’s mantra in his mind. He circulated his Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi and then threw a punch.
The Spiritual Qi condensed into a pitch-black fist, and the surrounding trees fell.
“Little Flower! Give her back to me!” Sun Gui still said something that Zhou Feng didn’t understand, but he didn’t show any mercy.
The Demon-Devouring Armor covered Zhou Feng’s body, and he used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art again, the wind from his fist stirring up the debris.
It was as if two ancient ferocious beasts were fighting in the mountain forest. The surrounding environment was no longer as beautiful as before.
The two of them were purely engaged in hand-to-hand combat. Even if they had caused quite a number of injuries, they would recover in a few breaths.
“Kill!”
Such a crazy battle caused Zhou Feng to involuntarily howl.
The circulation of Spiritual Qi became smoother and smoother as the battle progressed, while his understanding of the Demon-Devouring Battle Art became deeper and deeper. At the same time, an avatar started to condense behind Zhou Feng.
Opposite him, Sun Gui also condensed an avatar behind his back.
Compared to Zhou Feng’s avatar, Sun Gui’s avatar was much more solid.
Moreover, Sun Gui’s avatar emitted a suction force that was constantly pulling Zhou Feng’s body.
Zhou Feng had no choice but to divert a portion of his energy to deal with this suction force.
Although Sun Gui’s realm and usage of the three Demon-Devouring Arts far surpassed Zhou Feng’s, he could not take down Zhou Feng no matter how he tried.
Zhou Feng had the passive Battle Instincts, which allowed him to predict any attack in advance. He would also make the best choice in battle.
Furthermore, the Demon-Devouring Gu provided pure Spiritual Qi that was not inferior to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.
Thus, the two sides were in a stalemate.
‘No way! It can’t be over so soon!’
Zhou Feng suddenly felt his Spiritual Qi weakening. It turned out that the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body was about to die!
Although the Demon-Devouring Gu could explode with power for a short period, allowing the host’s strength to skyrocket beyond their realm, this duration was extremely short. After all, the Demon-Devouring Gu itself was of the Pixiu attribute.
Bursting out with power in one wave was already giving face to the host; a long burst was simply impossible.
To put it simply, the Demon-Devouring Gu was not happy.
Thus, Zhou Feng had to take advantage of this period to resolve this crisis.
“Give Little Flower back to me!”
Unlike Zhou Feng, who was running on fumes, Sun Gui seemed to have some strength to spare.
He condensed his Spiritual Qi into a spear and hurled it at Zhou Feng.
His Spiritual Qi could be molded into any shape with the Demon-Devouring Battle Art’s support. Hence, the attacks Zhou Feng faced were also varied.
What Zhou Feng found most annoying was the Demon-Devouring Armor on Sun Gui’s body. He simply could not break its defense.
Sun Gui’s was a little too strong!
‘Who exactly is Little Flower?/
Zhou Feng had heard Sun Gui mumbling this name repeatedly, so he realized that it might be his breakthrough point.
Zhou Feng had nothing to lose, so he casually said, “Little Flower is behind you!”
Although Zhou Feng didn’t know who Little Flower was, he used this method to distract Sun Gui.
Whether Sun Gui believed it or not was up to fate.
Well… he actually fell for it!?
Zhou Feng swore that it was just a casual remark.
Sun Gui turned back without hesitation but did not find Little Flower behind him, not even a shadow.
Zhou Feng seized this opportunity and condensed a long spear with his Spiritual Qi.
The long spear tore through the air with a sharp whistling sound and pierced through Sun Gui’s back!
Sun Gui’s attention was elsewhere, so Zhou Feng finally broke through the Demon-Devouring Armor protecting him.
“You lied to me!”
Sun Gui, who had come back to his senses, immediately went crazy.
More than ten demonic avatars split out behind him, each of which had a slightly different form. The only similarity was that each demonic avatar had a suction force.
The suction force attracted many wood chips, stones, and so on, just like a magnet.
“Little Flower is really behind you! Look!” shouted Zhou Feng for the sake of trying.
After all, Sun Gui had fallen for it once, so the chances of falling for it again were close to zero. How could there be such a stupid person in the world?
Well… Sun Gui fell for it again!
The avatar behind him immediately disappeared, and then he turned his head to look.
Zhou Feng seized this opportunity and pierced through Sun Gui’s throat with another long spear.
“Break!”
Zhou Feng squeezed out the last bit of Spiritual Qi and decapitated Sun Gui. He then kicked away Sun Gui’s head, sending it flying far away.
After doing all this, he lay on the ground.
“It’s over?”
He couldn’t believe it. It was over just like that?
This time, it was too dangerous. If it weren’t for Sun Gui’s mental problems, he wouldn’t have won.
This was too exciting!
This battle with Sun Gui had started inexplicably and ended inexplicably.
Zhou Feng guessed that the so-called Little Flower should be Sun Gui’s lover. Or it could be said that she must have been a very important person to him. Otherwise, Sun Gui wouldn’t have acted in such a way.
To be honest, Zhou Feng had guessed correctly.
Sun Gui and Little Flower had been a couple. They had joined the Tri-Gu Sect at the same time and had also become members of Bitter Bamboo Peak.
However, there had still been a trace of kindness in their hearts, and they had been unable to get used to the inner sect’s environment.
Subsequently, Little Flower had become a hunting target because her cultivation could not keep up.
When Sun Gui had found Little Flower, only her head was left.
In the end, Sun Gui’s personality darkened while his mental state became abnormal, but he could not see it.
Zhou Feng naturally did not know about this, but even if he knew, he would at most express his apology and would not be too sad.
That was because when he had been in the Gu Refinement Cave, he had already had a clear understanding of the Tri-Gu Sect.
Zhou Feng did not want to think about other things. He only cared about what he could obtain.
Would Zhou Feng’s cultivation directly rise to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation if he devoured the Demon-Devouring Gu of Sun Gui, a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator?
At that thought, he dug open Sun Gui’s chest, located the Demon-Devouring Gu, and swallowed it!
