137: Holy Weapon, Blood Soul Banner

"You insult my Liu Family, you seek death!"

Blood Refining Marquis was furious. The space around him suddenly twisted, and mountains of corpses and seas of blood floated behind him. A terrifying aura pressed down on Wang Changfeng.

At the same time, he extended his right hand, and a bloody large hand pierced through the clouds, reaching directly under the firmament and grabbing towards Wang Changfeng.

"Hmph! Seeking death!"

Wang Changfeng snorted coldly, and the Qi within his body exploded.

"Boom!"

Like a mountain collapse and a tsunami, the sky falling and the earth sinking, the terrifying Qi wave swept across the entire world.

Within tens of millions of miles, all living beings at this moment felt an endless Heavenly Might like ants, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

Wang Changfeng merely stood there, already in harmony with heaven and earth, subtly aligning with the Origin pulsation, releasing a wisp of Saint Might that shattered the bloody large hand.

"Peak Half-Saint!"

Blood Refining Marquis's expression changed dramatically.

Half-Saints also have strengths and weaknesses, divided into newly ascended Half-Saints, veteran Half-Saints, and Peak Half-Saints. Wang Changfeng was a Peak Half-Saint. Half-Saints of this Rank, even in the Liu Family, there were only two.

A powerhouse of this Rank was already almost equivalent to a Saint; the only difference was that he had not yet passed the great tribulation of the Saint Dao, had not been acknowledged by the Heavenly Dao, and could not convert Saint Power.

But Blood Refining Marquis had no time to think, because Wang Changfeng had already launched an attack.

As he watched, the Void Realm around Blood Refining Marquis collapsed, and a blazing Divine Light struck towards him. He dared not be careless, and a bloody long spear appeared in his hand, stabbing towards the Divine Light!

"Pfft!"

Under this stunning spear strike, the Divine Light dispersed in the air, and Blood Refining Marquis was also sent flying tens of thousands of miles away.

And this was merely Wang Changfeng's test.

"You think you can kill me with just this much strength? Truly ignorant of life and death!"

Wang Changfeng mocked unceremoniously.

"Kill!"

Blood Refining Marquis roared wildly. Although he was not seriously injured, he felt deeply insulted.

With his loud roar, the bloody Divine Spear swept out, and endless murderous intent condensed into a giant bloody spear shadow that spanned tens of thousands of miles, as if to cut off heaven and earth.

"Presumptuous!"

Wang Changfeng raised his hand and grasped the giant bloody spear shadow.

"Crack!"

With a gentle squeeze, it shattered with a bang.

The murderous intent within it quickly dissipated before it could even reach Wang Changfeng.

Many Martial Artists were seeing a Half-Saint make a move for the first time, and indeed, Half-Saint powerhouses were terrifying!

To be associated with the word 'Saint' was no simple matter. Although only one step away from the God-Emperor Realm, it was a world-changing difference, and the gap between them was immeasurable.

"Let me show you the heritage of a Saint Family!"

Blood Refining Marquis's eyes narrowed, and soon his blood robe disappeared, replaced by a bloody battle armor exuding terrifying might.

"Blood God Armor! Hailed as one of the Liu Family's three strongest Half-Saint Weapons, I never thought it would be given to Blood Refining Marquis!"

"This Blood God Armor is strange; legend has it that it can absorb the blood of living beings, allowing its wielder to erupt with Half-Saint power when used!"

Among the spectators, there were many who knew about the armor and revealed its Origins.

Those who were unaware were shocked upon hearing this, subconsciously looking at Blood Refining Marquis, whose aura had indeed surpassed the God-Emperor Realm.

"Do you think you can contend with me by relying on a Half-Saint Weapon?"

Wang Changfeng took a step, and the space beneath his feet contracted. He instantly appeared beside Blood Refining Marquis and struck out with a palm.

Blood Refining Marquis was fearless, rising against the heavens. The bloody long spear in his hand traced a mysterious trajectory, stabbing towards Wang Changfeng's palm.

"Clang!"

The two collided, and a storm raged like a sea. Wang Changfeng's Physical Body was formidable; the bloody long spear could not harm him in the slightest.

"Wind Transformation!"

Wang Changfeng lightly shouted. Instantly, he seemed to embody the Origin of Wind, and Divine Power surged out, transforming into a violent storm that crashed towards Blood Refining Marquis.

"Clang!"

Seeing the fierce momentum of this strike, Blood Refining Marquis wielded the bloody long spear, transforming it into a spear wall that blocked the attack, but he was also sent flying by the immense force.

"Thunder Transformation!"

Suddenly, Wang Changfeng transformed into a flash of lightning, appearing before Blood Refining Marquis, and then unleashed a punch. His speed was incredibly fast, instantly closing in on Blood Refining Marquis, and as if controlling everything, he effortlessly landed a punch on Blood Refining Marquis's chest.

"Crackle!"

The sound of bones shattering rang out. Blood Refining Marquis spat out blood, and his entire body was sent flying by the punch. This time, he was truly injured. Had it not been for the Blood God Armor, this punch would have surely killed him.

The battle continued, and the two sides fought fiercely in the Void Realm!

On the other side, Wang Xuanming was not idle either. While sealing off the region of thirty million miles, he directly suppressed the Blood Refinement Divine Army.

Without Blood Refining Marquis, these people were nothing, and in a short while, hundreds of thousands of casualties had been inflicted.

"Marquis, save me!"

"Help!!!"

"Ah..."

"Bastards! You deserve to die!"

Watching his subordinates die one by one, Blood Refining Marquis's eyes turned blood red. This Blood Refinement Divine Army was his life's work. He held a very high position in the Liu Family, not only due to his own strength but also because of this army under his command.

But with Wang Xuanming's attack, most of his efforts were in vain. How could he accept this!

He wished he could rush up and kill Wang Xuanming, but Wang Changfeng repeatedly forced him back. The opponent clearly had many chances to severely injure him, but he did not do so, clearly toying with him.

"You deserve to die, you forced my hand!"

"I want you all to die!!!"

Blood Refining Marquis spat out blood in anger, roaring tragically.

At this moment, slaughter filled his eyes.

He broke through Wang Changfeng's blockade, then soared into the sky. At this moment, he opened his mouth and spat out a bloody soul banner.

As soon as this bloody soul banner appeared, an supreme Saint Might permeated the air, and the entire world was plunged into a bloody hue. The aura it contained even surpassed Wang Changfeng.

"Saint Weapon!"

Wang Changfeng's expression changed. He had not expected Blood Refining Marquis to possess a Saint Weapon.

"I originally didn't intend to expose it, but you destroyed half of my life's work, you deserve to die!"

Blood Refining Marquis said with a mournful voice, as if from the netherworld, sending shivers down one's spine.

This Saint Weapon was acquired hundreds of thousands of years ago when he annihilated that supreme Imperial Dynasty. Back then, this soul banner was only a Half-Step Saint Weapon. After hundreds of thousands of years of his Spirit Refining, its Rank reached a First-Grade Saint Weapon.

This was originally his biggest secret; he had not even told the Family Saint, because once revealed, this painstakingly refined Saint Weapon would very likely no longer be his.

But seeing his subordinates die one after another, and he himself in deep danger, he had no choice but to use this Saint Weapon.

At worst, after killing them, he would slaughter all living beings in the surrounding tens of millions of miles, and then he would flee the Zhengyuan Holy Domain.

Thinking of this, his eyes grew cold. Instantly, ghosts cried and gods howled between heaven and earth, the entire firmament turned crimson, and at the same time, bloody rain began to fall.

Countless bloody vengeful spirits, transforming into terrifying phantoms, charged towards Wang Changfeng and the other person.

Among these bloody vengeful spirits, the weakest were all in the Sovereign Realm, and there were many God-Emperors. Furthermore, there were several Half-Saint vengeful spirits, and the most powerful one even reached the strength of a Peak Half-Saint.

And within that blood soul banner, there was an aura surpassing Half-Saint, but Blood Refining Marquis was somewhat wary and did not activate it.

"Ah!!!"

"Run, this blood rain is stripping away our life force!"

Just then, countless Martial Artists were horrified. They saw people around them instantly dissolve into clumps of blood Qi after encountering the blood rain, floating towards the bloody soul banner.

Each time the bloody soul banner absorbed a stream of blood Qi, its aura grew stronger.

And below, the blood Qi became more and more abundant. The power of the blood rain was such that even Mystic Sovereigns could not resist it; only powerhouses above the Heavenly Sovereign were struggling desperately.

More importantly, this region had been completely sealed off, and they could not escape at all.

"I didn't expect such a harvest!"

A remarkably young voice sounded.

"Who?"

Blood Refining Marquis was greatly alarmed, looking around.

Then a verdant branch suddenly appeared, coiled around the bloody soul banner, and vanished into space.

"Bastard, my blood soul banner!"

Blood Refining Marquis was furious. He immediately disregarded everything else, spat out a mouthful of essence blood, and tried to activate the entity within the blood soul banner.

"Pfft!"

Blood Refining Marquis spat out another mouthful of fresh blood. This was a backlash, because he had already lost control of the blood soul banner.

Without the blood soul banner, the countless bloody vengeful spirits lost their source of power and their aura quickly weakened. Wang Changfeng and the other person immediately went on a rampage.

Seeing this, Blood Refining Marquis's pupils constricted, and he fled into the distance.

"This farce should end!"

The verdant branch appeared again, lashing at Blood Refining Marquis. With a loud "bang," Blood Refining Marquis exploded into a mist of blood, leaving behind only the bloody long spear, the Blood God Armor, and three storage rings.
