844: Chapter 2: The Power of Two Fists

This voice was like heavenly thunder, echoing in everyone's minds, causing those with slightly weaker strength to immediately cough up blood and collapse.

"Playing tricks!"

Seeing how arrogant this person was, Blood Moon did not hesitate, raising his sword and charging toward Luo Xiu.

Immediately after, the entire Blood Domain seemed to respond to its master's wrath, as thousands of blood swords condensed and struck out alongside Blood Moon.

"Flashy nonsense."

Luo Xiu sneered with disdain. The next moment, the Five Elements rotated within his heterochromatic eyes, one golden and one dark.

In an instant, those blood swords were annihilated by an invisible force, and even Blood Moon's own attack suddenly stalled.

In front of him, the thrusting scarlet longsword was currently blocked by an invisible force, and the space around the sword tip was distorted.

"How is this possible?!"

Blood Moon's face was filled with shock. He was clear about his own strength; while he might not be invincible across the land, it was impossible for him to be blocked like this.

"Who exactly are you? This barren planet could never give birth to an existence like you."

But before his voice could even fade, an intense sense of crisis suddenly descended!

"Damn it!"

Blood Moon dared not be careless in the slightest and immediately unleashed Blood Domain: Infinite Hell, causing a blood-colored barrier to appear around him.

This move had been effective countless times before, frequently blocking several attacks from Shadow and the others.

However, the blood barrier was now covered in cracks—the lingering effect caused by Zhu Jianhua's desperate strike.

The residual characteristics left on it made this seemingly flawless blood-colored barrier no longer so despair-inducing!

"Crack!"

Almost the instant Blood Moon deployed Blood Domain: Infinite Hell, a sound of crushing and tearing suddenly rang out.

"It's you! How is this possible?!"

Blood Moon revealed his astonishment once more. He saw that Luo Xiu's seemingly unremarkable fist had already landed upon the blood-colored barrier right in front of him.

"A decent tortoise shell. I wonder if it can withstand this King's second punch?"

Before Luo Xiu finished speaking, that unremarkable fist was already raised again.

This time, before the momentum of the fist arrived, a terrifying, heavy aura—as if it could crush the eternal azure sky—had already spread out.

The space before his fist groaned under the unbearable pressure, and visible ripples spread out like shattered glaze, instantly covering every crack on the blood-colored barrier!

Blood Moon's pupils shrank to the size of needle points. Zhu Jianhua's residual Qi in the cracks now seemed to become a fatal weakness, infinitely magnified before Luo Xiu's world-destroying Fist Intent!

"No—!"

Blood Moon was scared out of his wits, frantically channeling all the power within his body into Blood Domain: Infinite Hell, attempting to repair the cracks and reinforce the barrier.

The scarlet light was brighter than ever, and the entire barrier was like a burning blood-colored crystal, emitting a desperate struggle.

However, all of this seemed futile and ridiculous before Luo Xiu.

That second punch, seemingly slow but actually faster than lightning, carried a domineering will capable of crushing stars and destroying all techniques, landing without any flourish directly onto the core of the blood-colored barrier—the most hideous crack!

Crack!

Boom—!!!

Time seemed to freeze for an instant, followed by a deafening, terrifying explosion that echoed throughout the entire Blood Domain!

The blood-colored barrier, which had blocked several attacks from Shadow and the others and even withstood Zhu Jianhua's desperate strike, was as fragile as paper mache before Luo Xiu's second punch!

Centered on the fist mark, the cracks did not merely spread—they instantly exploded!

The entirety of Blood Domain: Infinite Hell shattered violently, like a blood-colored glazed lamp struck by a heavy hammer, under the horrified gazes of everyone present!

Fragments of bloody light scattered everywhere, as if a mournful rain of blood were falling.

The Blood Domain, which Blood Moon was so proud of and used as his source of power, was actually shattered and disintegrated from its Foundation by this single punch!

"Pfft—!!!"

The moment the barrier shattered, Blood Moon felt as though he had been hit head-on by ten thousand tons of divine mountain. Blood mixed with fragments of internal organs spurted wildly from his mouth, and his body flew backward like a kite with a broken string.

The blood-colored armor on his body cracked inch by inch, emitting a screeching metallic wail, and his sword-holding right arm was twisted into a grotesque shape, the sound of splintering bone clearly audible.

"Ugh ah—!"

Blood Moon let out a mournful shriek. There was no longer any trace of his previous arrogance or murderous intent in his eyes, only bone-deep astonishment and unbelievable terror.

He crashed like a burning meteor toward a dark red hill condensed from the power of the Blood Domain in the distance.

Rumble!

The hill collapsed, rubble flew everywhere, and dust mixed with blood mist soared into the sky, forming a massive deep pit.

Luo Xiu slowly retracted his fist, his posture so relaxed it was as if he had merely swatted an annoying fly.

His heterochromatic eyes, one golden and one dark, indifferently swept over the direction of the deep pit. The faint glow of the rotating Five Elements slowly subsided in his depths, revealing a cold indifference, as if looking down upon ants.

Inside the deep pit, Blood Moon struggled to stand up. Every movement triggered intense pain throughout his body, causing him to cough up large mouthfuls of blood again.

Half of his body was embedded in the rubble, looking utterly wretched. The gaze he directed at Luo Xiu was filled with terror and incomprehension.

"Impossible... This is absolutely impossible... A barren planet... How could it have a... monster... like you..."

Blood Moon's voice was intermittent and hoarse, like a broken bellows.

Luo Xiu moved slightly. The next moment, he appeared like a phantom at the edge of the deep pit, looking down at Blood Moon, who resembled a pile of mud.

His Shadow completely enveloped Blood Moon, bringing boundless despair.

"A frog in a well cannot discuss the ocean."

Luo Xiu's voice was calm and unwavering, yet carried a chill that froze the Soul. "What you deem barren is merely the ignorance of a frog looking up from a well. Who gave you the audacity to chatter before this King?"

He slowly raised one foot and seemingly casually stepped onto a boulder at the edge of the deep pit.

Just this single action caused an invisible, overwhelming force to crash down!

Thud!

Blood Moon in the deep pit felt as if he were carrying the entire Primordial Divine Mountain. His body, which he had just managed to lift slightly, was brutally pressed back into the ground by this force, face down and firmly stuck to the cold rubble, unable to move even a single finger!

Humiliation and intense pain made his eyes nearly burst, yet he couldn't utter a single sound.

Luo Xiu didn't even attack him directly; merely a posture, a thought, was enough to completely strip him of his last shred of resistance, leaving him pinned underfoot like a dead dog, unable to move!

Absolute crushing!

At this moment, where was Blood Moon's previous arrogance, when he looked down upon Shadow and the others, viewing the beings of this world as mere ants?

Before Luo Xiu, he was the ant that was easily crushed, whose struggles seemed utterly laughable!

Luo Xiu's gaze swept over Blood Moon's continuously twitching body, as if looking at a piece of useless trash.

He tilted his head slightly, the corner of his mouth curving into an extremely faint yet chilling smile:

"It seems your tortoise shell isn't very durable."
