103: Chapter 103 That Touch of Crimson

"Break for me!!!"

Watching the giant flaming palm descending from the sky high above, Xiao Xuance clenched his teeth tightly, burning the power of his blood and Qi within his body, gathering all his strength, and fiercely thrust the spear in his hand forward.

At the same time.

Xiao Xuance fiercely slapped his Storage Pouch.

A trace of determination flashed through his eyes, and a tiny silver needle, mixed with the terrifying water element erupting within his body, silently disappeared high into the air.

Boom, boom, boom!!!

The two collided with each other.

Waves of violent vibrations resounded through the high sky.

Amidst the collision between the two, Zhou Yuanjun's full-strength strike directly formed an overwhelming suppression.

That heaven-covering giant flaming palm high in the sky gave a fierce grab, directly obliterating Xiao Xuance's formidable spear radiance.

Immediately afterwards, this giant palm's momentum did not decrease in the slightest, directly transforming into a giant fist that fiercely smashed down towards Xiao Xuance.

Puff!

Struck by this giant flaming fist, layer after layer of protective shields on Xiao Xuance shattered, a mouthful of fresh blood violently spewed out, and his body plummeted heavily towards the ground.

If not for the fact that at the critical moment, he hurriedly used a Vajra Talisman, coupled with the power of his Foundation Establishment level Physical Body, I'm afraid under this single punch, he would have long since been blasted into tiny fragments.

But even so, Xiao Xuance still had a hard time. Large mouthfuls of fresh blood violently spewed, and his entire person weakly slammed into the ground, his complexion becoming extremely pale, with less than ten percent of his strength remaining.

"It's over..."

Zhou Yuanjun muttered to himself.

Looking calm and collected, his body rapidly sprinted downward, flames condensing at his fingertips, wanting to pierce through Xiao Xuance's skull with a single finger.

However, Xiao Xuance, who was already completely devoid of any power to fight back, looked at this fatal blow without any panic in his expression.

Instead, a trace of wild joy and anticipation leaked from his eyes...

"Is it going to succeed..."

Xiao Xuance's figure tightened, his gaze fixed dead on Zhou Yuanjun, who was charging swiftly towards him.

Just as Zhou Yuanjun's finger was about to fall, a silver needle in the air suddenly pierced out, heading directly towards Zhou Yuanjun's skull.

Boom!!!

A violent explosion sounded.

Amidst the aftermath of this terrifying explosion, Xiao Xuance's body was directly blown flying for several hundred zhang.

Lying on the ground, he tumbled several times, and mouthfuls of fresh blood violently spewed out once again.

Caring nothing for his own disheveled state, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Xiao Xuance laborantly raised his head, looking towards the direction where Zhou Yuanjun was with anticipation flashing in his eyes.

That silver needle was a one-time consumable treasure given to him by his Revered Master. As long as it was used properly, a single strike could kill a Peak Foundation Establishment powerhouse.

And this was also his final trump card.

He believed that relying on Zhou Yuanjun's Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, as long as he was caught off guard, facing the attack of this silver needle, he would definitely perish on the spot.

"Xiao Xuance!!! You truly deserve to die!!!"

Amidst Xiao Xuance's expectant gaze, the shrouding dust dissipated, and Zhou Yuanjun's angry roar came from within.

Hearing Zhou Yuanjun's angry roar, Xiao Xuance's complexion instantly turned pale; he completely couldn't believe his own ears.

How could this be?

Just now, Zhou Yuanjun had no defense whatsoever. Relying solely on his Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, how could he possibly block the attack of that one-time consumable treasure?

In Xiao Xuance's shocked and incredulous gaze, Zhou Yuanjun walked out from the dispersing dust.

At this moment, Zhou Yuanjun wore a look of heartache, his eyes filled with anger and madness.

He held a shattered jade pendant in his hand, and his entire person no longer possessed the calm and collected demeanor from before.

Because in the previous strike, he originally wouldn't have been able to block it, but before departing, his Revered Master had also given him a protective item.

Relying on this protective item, he had blocked Xiao Xuance's silver needle, which was a one-time consumable treasure.

But... the result in exchange was that this protective item was also scrapped along with it.

Looking at his precious item being ruined because of his momentary carelessness, Zhou Yuanjun's heart burned with raging fury.

He had been far too confident...

And he paid the price for his confidence...

Causing him to lose a protective treasure, Xiao Xuance was utterly unforgivable...

Flames burned on Zhou Yuanjun's body, and with a fierce wave of his large hand, a wave of flames transformed into long fire serpents in the air, charging to kill Xiao Xuance.

This strike!

Zhou Yuanjun struck out out of resentment, determined not to give Xiao Xuance any more chances!

Puff!

Scalding fresh blood splattered out.

In Xiao Xuance's shocked and incredulous gaze, his head directly burst apart, and then raging flames began to burn within his body.

And right at this moment!

Swish!

A sound of piercing through the air suddenly rang out.

Just as Zhou Yuanjun struck out with resentment, a flying knife shuttled through the air, permeating with a dense bloody stench, rapidly arriving right before Zhou Yuanjun's chest.

Before Zhou Yuanjun could react, this flying knife had already pierced straight through his chest, and the terrifying blood fiend Saber Qi spread, directly obliterating and shredding all of Zhou Yuanjun's internal organs within his body.

"This..."

Feeling the vitality on his body dissipating.

Zhou Yuanjun, who had just killed Xiao Xuance in one fell swoop, lowered his head to look at his own chest in some disbelief.

Scalding fresh blood gushed out.

In Zhou Yuanjun's unwilling gaze, his body fell heavily towards the ground.

Boom!!!

A gust of dust rose.

Until his death, Zhou Yuanjun never saw how he had actually died.

"Senior Brother Zhou!!!"

Seeing this scene before them, the three Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Shangyang Sect who were originally watching from the side and dared not rashly intervene could not help screaming in terror.

They similarly hadn't seen how Zhou Yuanjun had actually died.

Within their line of sight, they only felt a flash of crimson, and immediately Zhou Yuanjun's body unwillingly plummeted to the ground.

Just as these few people were screaming in terror, that crimson saber radiance emanating a dense blood fiend Qi flashed over once again.

The flying knife shuttled rapidly through the air.

Immediately after, a trace of terrifying lightning spread, and the speed of the flying knife skyrocketed once again.

Sensing a life-and-death crisis.

The remaining three Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Shangyang Sect couldn't help retreating as layers of protective shields flickered on their bodies.

But all of this was futile.

Even though their bodies were shrouded in protective shields, under the rapid shuttling of this flying knife, the throats of those three Shangyang Sect Foundation Establishment Cultivators were directly pierced through, and without even a chance to react, they directly turned into corpses and fell to the ground.

"Not many, not few—exactly ten Foundation Establishment corpses!"

Clad in a black robe, Lin Shen emerged from the darkness.

Holding the soul-absorbing banner in his hand, with the blood fiend flying knife dancing between his fingertips, looking at this scene before him, a smug smile could not help appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Right now, it was just right; ten corpses had been gathered together.

Lin Shen waved the soul-absorbing banner in his hand, and a dense wave of black Qi shrouded this canyon. A large number of Foundation Establishment Realm evil ghosts and dead souls howled out, frantically devouring the power of souls spreading and drifting in the air.

Under the devouring of the soul-absorbing banner, Lin Shen executed hand incantations, and Storage Pouches all over the ground were instantly drawn into the palm of his hand.

At the same time, the Blood Sacrifice Formation was activated.

Those mutilated corpses were instantly stripped of all flesh and blood over their entire bodies by this Blood Sacrifice Formation, turning into individual skeletons.

Accompanied by the flesh and blood on the ten Foundation Establishment Realm corpses being completely devoured by the Blood Sacrifice Formation, a dazzling blood-red light flashed and rose.

"Young friend, right now!"
