Chapter 196 Another Demon Society

Killing intent surged in Chu Han's heart, but he did not act immediately.

"Want to catch me? You're not qualified!"

Chu Han gave a cold shout, and his figure suddenly moved. He pushed his movement technique to the limit, leaving an illusory shadow in place while his true self fled like a ghost toward the mountain forests on the outskirts of the Capital Base City.

His goal was clear: stall for time until Lin Canglan's reinforcements arrived, then settle the score with these people face-to-face.

"Not good! He's running!"

"Chase him! We can't let him get away!"

The crowd behind him was shocked. They all activated their Yuan Qi and gave chase in the direction Chu Han had fled.

Looking at Chu Han's retreating back, the Eerie Youth did not have anger in his eyes; instead, a hint of amusement flashed through them. "Oh? Interesting. To think he could escape right under my nose. After him; I want to see where this rat can run to."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure flickered, and he pursued like he was teleporting. His speed was significantly faster than the others, and he followed steadily not far behind Chu Han.

Chu Han shuttled through the mountain forest at full speed, his body moving nimbly and incredibly lightly through the dense trees.

His Mental Energy was fully deployed, allowing him not only to anticipate the terrain ahead but also to accurately perceive the positions of the pursuers behind him.

Relying on his exquisite movement technique and the assistance of his Mental Energy, he left the pursuers further and further behind, with only the Eerie Youth still following closely.

"His speed isn't slow, but unfortunately, he's still far from catching me," Chu Han sneered inwardly and accelerated once more.

He deliberately chose areas with complex terrain to flee, using trees and mountain rocks to block the pursuers' vision and speed, always maintaining a safe distance and never engaging easily.

Time passed bit by bit, and the chase in the mountain forest grew more intense.

Finally, after fleeing for a full five minutes, Chu Han's Mental Energy keenly captured a powerful aura rushing this way at high speed—it was Lin Canglan!

Chu Han's heart relaxed, and then the cold light in his eyes flared up.

"The prey is about to become the hunter!"

Coincidentally, at this moment, the Eerie Youth behind him finally reached the end of his patience. He roared in shame and anger, "Kid, you dare to toy with me! Do you really think I can't catch you?"

Before his voice could fade, the aura around him suddenly surged, and his speed increased by another level, instantly closing the distance between him and Chu Han.

A pair of cold eyes locked onto Chu Han, making no attempt to hide the killing intent and cruelty within. "Since you love running so much, I'll break both your legs and make you wish you were dead!"

Chu Han stopped abruptly, turned around, and a cold smile appeared on his face. "So what if I toyed with you? Soon, you won't be able to smile anymore."

Toward this group of people who dared to try and control Master Yao and coveted his green lotus pill, Chu Han had nothing but killing intent in his heart.

Especially the Eerie Youth before him; in Chu Han's eyes, he was already a dead man.

The moment he spoke, Chu Han's Mental Energy suddenly erupted, condensing into three rotating Spiral Seal marks that shot toward the Eerie Youth's Sea of Consciousness at high speed.

The Eerie Youth, who had just entered the 8th Rank Late Stage, gave a disdainful sneer at the sight. "Trifling tricks! You still want to use mental attacks against me?"

He casually released a mental barrier, attempting to block Chu Han's attack.

However, the moment the Spiral Seal struck the mental barrier, the disdain on his face instantly froze, replaced by total shock.

"How is this possible?!"

The mental defense he was so proud of was like paper before Chu Han's Spiral Seal, torn apart in an instant.

The three Spiral Seal marks charged into his Sea of Consciousness without hindrance, bringing a wave of piercing pain.

The Eerie Youth's consciousness momentarily fell into a brief state of lostness, and his body also froze in place.

Now is the time!

A sharp light flashed in Chu Han's eyes. Without the slightest hesitation, he barked, "Giant Whale Transformation! Nine Transformations of Heavenly Fire - Third Transformation!"

His body instantly expanded, and golden flames burned around him like lava, the terrifyingly high temperature warping the surrounding air.

Holding the flame demon battle saber, Chu Han brought down a strike with the power to incinerate the heavens and destroy the earth, slashing toward the Eerie Youth like a god of fire.

Psh!

The saber light flashed, and blood splattered.

The Eerie Youth didn't even have time to recover from his lost consciousness before he was split in two by Chu Han's saber, his corpse crashing heavily to the ground.

"You waste, you should be satisfied that I let you live for five extra minutes."

Chu Han stood with his saber sheathed, preparing to turn and kill the others, when he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

The corpse on the ground, split in two, actually began to emit a thick black mist. As the mist churned, the two halves of the corpse slowly merged back together. The Eerie Youth's figure appeared once more, though his face was even paler, and his body radiated a heart-palpitating dark aura.

"This aura... you're from the Mosheng Society!" Chu Han's pupils shrank, and he was greatly shocked.

Only members of the Mosheng Society would Cultivate such bizarre Cultivation Techniques, possessing such Heaven-Defying recovery abilities and even the power to return from the dead.

"You actually know about the Mosheng Society?" After the Eerie Youth was resurrected, his face was filled with hideous rage.

He roared hysterically, "Since you know, then you should understand the consequences of offending my Mosheng Society! You have completely enraged me. Today, I will surely tear you into ten thousand pieces!"

As his voice fell, the dark aura around the Eerie Youth surged again, and he condensed a pitch-black longsword in his hand, the blade radiating an aura of destruction.

"World-Destroying Sword!"

He swung the sword violently, and a massive black sword light slashed toward Chu Han. Everywhere it passed, trees and rocks were instantly decomposed by the sword light, and a huge trench a hundred meters deep was carved into the ground.

Chu Han's expression was grave. He swung the flame demon battle saber, and the golden saber light condensed into a flame dragon. Carrying blazing fire, it met the black sword light head-on.

Boom!

With a loud explosion, the golden-red and black energies collided, erupting into a terrifying shockwave.

The two attacks canceled each other out, proving to be evenly matched.

Chu Han was secretly surprised; he hadn't expected that his full-power Flame Dragon Slash could only draw with the opponent's attack.

However, this also proved that with his current strength, he already possessed the capital to directly confront an 8th Rank Late Stage expert.

But Chu Han didn't have time to test his strength here. Master Yao was still in danger, and he had to end this quickly!

"Spiritual Domain!"

Chu Han gave a cold shout, and his Mental Energy erupted again. A massive Spiritual Domain instantly expanded, firmly enveloping the Eerie Youth within it.

This time, the Eerie Youth was prepared and immediately activated his Mental Energy to resist.

But a Spiritual Domain of the Third Realm was simply not something he could withstand.

The moment the Spiritual Domain descended, he felt a sharp pain in his mind and fell into a daze once more. His body was also firmly bound by an invisible force, unable to move.

Before Chu Han's Third Realm Mental Energy, all of his defenses were as futile as paper!

Chu Han seized the opportunity and immediately released the Flame Gods Fire to completely consume the Eerie Youth.

The Eerie Youth was unable to resist, and the dark aura around him was instantly evaporated by the high temperature.

He couldn't even let out a scream before he was burned to ashes by Chu Han's flames.

There was no longer any possibility of resurrection.

Having dealt with the Eerie Youth, Chu Han turned to look at the other Mosheng Society members chasing from behind.

The fastest was that middle-aged Great Grandmaster from the Mosheng Society.

He saw the scene of the battle near Chu Han, but could not sense the Eerie Youth's aura. Guessing that the Eerie Youth might have been killed, he was greatly shocked.

But before he could figure out the situation...

Chu Han's Mental Energy had already struck.

With only 8th Rank Initial Stage strength, his Sea of Consciousness collapsed instantly when faced with Chu Han's mental attack.

He was killed by a single strike from Chu Han.

As for the remaining dozen or so Grandmaster-level experts, they were all killed by Chu Han's Mental Energy attacks as well.

By this time, Lin Canglan had already led his people to charge into Master Yao's residence.

Seeing this, Chu Han immediately returned to Master Yao's Ancient Residence.
