Chapter 168: Anxious and exasperated
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Boom!”
There was a loud explosion. Yu Doushan couldn’t evade and was directly hit, causing his flesh and blood to explode, scattering all over the ground.
Jiao Xiangyuan’s face turned slightly pale, but he let out a sigh of relief. Even he couldn’t use such an explosive technique continuously. Succeeding in one move was the best outcome.
Chen Fei’s figure flashed as he swung the long sword in his hand. The battle had just begun, and this wasn’t the first time Yu Doushan had been turned into a mess of flesh. The key was whether he could destroy the mental power contained in his flesh and blood.
If he couldn’t, Yu Doushan could still recover.
If that happened, Chen Fei would have to consider running away. Because it meant that Yu Doushan had become an unbeatable force that only those at the Aperture Tempering realm could defeat.
“Tsk!”
Chen Fei’s sword swept through, and the fine strands of core soul energy attached to the sword clashed with the core soul energy in Yu Doushan’s flesh. Chen Fei felt a slight tremor in his heart as he attempted to remove the core soul energy from Yu Doushan’s flesh.
“Ah!”
Yu Doushan let out a sharp cry for the first time. Regardless of how badly he was beaten, he hadn’t reacted or screamed in pain before.
Jiao Xiangyuan heard Yu Doushan’s cry and his face lit up. Only those who had fought with Yu Doushan could understand the suffering.
It was as if victory was forever out of reach, and relaxing even for a moment would send them plummeting into an abyss. If it weren’t for Yu Doushan’s unwavering determination, most people would have turned and fled.
“Everyone, after you’ve defeated your opponent, come over and use your core soul energy to finish him off!”
Chen Fei shouted loudly. This rabbit demon’s mental strength was evidently far superior to the others of its kind. Although Chen Fei’s mental strength was better than the others, the difference wasn’t significant.
Chen Fei might not be able to exhaust Yu Doushan to death even if he had used up all his mental strength.
Guo Linshan was the first to rush over. He wielded his broadsword and struck hard at the meat paste.
As the sword slashed down, the flesh on the ground trembled violently. It wanted to escape, but it had no strength. Guo Linshan’s face turned slightly pale. This was the result of the clash of their spiritual powers.
“That’s strong enough. Again!”
Guo Linshan roared in frustration. His core soul energy surged and poured into the broadsword, continuing to slash at the meat paste. This time, the flesh trembled and then stopped moving. However, Guo Linshan’s face turned even paler.
Jiao Xiangyuan stood by the side, preventing Yu Doushan’s flesh and blood from reuniting. Whenever there was any sign of movement, he would immediately strike down with his Star Meteorite Sword.
Yu Doushan’s flesh and blood had already been affected by Jiao Xiangyuan’s core soul energy, so the effect of obliteration wasn’t ideal. However, this ability to disintegrate physically remained undiminished.
Chen Fei was methodically dealing with the meat paste one by one. As more people joined in, the amount of meat that Yu Doushan could control began to decrease.
Shrill cries rang out continuously, causing the other rabbit demons to go berserk.
However, after learning about the true fate of these rabbit demons, their recovery ability was no longer as effective in providing protection.
The predictability of their moves became the biggest weakness when facing enemies. As their core soul energy was depleted, the rabbit demons died one by one. More people joined in to break Yu Doushan’s core soul energy, and the remaining flesh and blood dwindled.
Everyone’s faces began to light up with smiles. They had thought it would be a deadly situation, but this unexpected twist changed everything.
Now, it was them who wanted to kill all the rabbit demons. No one died. At most, they were injured.
The key was that they would have to split the thirty or so jade tokens that the rabbit demons had brought. With this number of jade tokens, everyone would be able to get at least one.
Some people secretly glanced at Chen Fei. In this battle, Chen Fei had played an extremely crucial role. Without him, they would likely have been completely wiped out.
Thinking of the number of jade tokens that Chen Fei would get later, some people couldn’t help but feel a little envious.
However, the team itself needed to distribute the spoils according to merit and contribution. Any slight bias could easily lead to criticism and cause the entire team to fall apart.
Jiao Xiangyuan understood this, and so did the others.
Moreover, the strength that Chen Fei had displayed earlier had also frightened quite a number of people. With the power displayed by his bow and arrow, even anyone at the Marrow Tempering realm would probably die.
Even if one were at the Visceral Tempering realm, unless one were at the late or peak stage, Chen Fei could directly nail one to death on the spot if he targeted one. You wouldn’t even have a chance to escape.
With strength and significant contributions, Chen Fei had more cards to play. Naturally, no one could object, nor did they dare to.
Zeng Jingan secretly gritted his teeth, not daring to say anything sarcastic.
In the past, he had looked down on Chen Fei because of Chen Fei’s lower cultivation level. Even if Chen Fei had a master at the Aperture Tempering realm, it couldn’t hide the fact that his cultivation was lower than Zeng Jingan’s.
But now, in a one-on-one fight, Zeng Jingan might be beaten up by Chen Fei. Under such circ.u.mstances, no matter how unwilling Zeng Jingan was, he had to let go of his previous grudge.
This was because they were inferior to Chen Fei in terms of background. In terms of combat strength, they were still inferior to Chen Fei. What else did they have to fight with? If they continued to entangle themselves, they would be the only ones to suffer.
Zeng Jingan was narrow-minded, but he wasn’t stupid. Those who could raise their cultivation to the Visceral Tempering realm and pa.s.s the sect’s temperament test were not fools.
At most, he would remain arrogant and despotic as usual.
“You can’t kill me!”
Yu Doushan’s voice suddenly came from the flesh. Then, some of the struggling flesh suddenly stopped trembling. Yu Doushan immediately concentrated all his core soul energy into one spot.
“Bang!”
Mou Yuanchang’s sword stabbed down, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He was sent flying backward, his face unusually pale. This was the result of a clash of core soul energy, and he was injured as a result.
The others were shocked, and their attacks slowed down. The core soul energy of the Visceral Tempering realm was about the same. At most, it would be at the peak of the Visceral Tempering realm, slightly stronger, but not by much.
Mou Yuanchang had been injured by the backlash. If they continued to attack, the outcome would not be any better.
Mental energy was a crucial factor in breaking through to the Aperture Tempering realm. If he accidentally damaged his foundation and caused his future breakthrough to the Visceral Tempering realm to fail, it would be truly tragic.
“Hahaha, if you want to kill me, then die together!”
Yu Doushan’s voice suddenly turned crazy. The lump of flesh shook violently. The next moment, the flesh exploded. Countless drops of blood flew in all directions as a result of his mind’s fluctuation.
Everyone couldn’t help but be shocked and frantically retreated.
Mou Yuanchang’s tragic state was right in front of them. They might not be able to kill him, but if they hurt his core soul energy, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Spatial Travel!
Chen Fei’s feet didn’t move, but his upper body transformed into several shadows, dodging all the attacks of the blood that came at him.
Although the rabbit demon’s tone was filled with madness, the fluctuation of his mental strength was surprisingly calm. This calmness was not something a person who wanted to die together would have.
“Whoos.h.!.+”
Chen Fei had just dodged the attack of the blood water when he saw Yu Doushan turn into a b.l.o.o.d.y shadow and run into the distance. As expected, the reason he had used all his power earlier was to create an opportunity to escape.
Survival was always the first instinct of life. The rabbit demon was no exception. It naturally didn’t want to stay here and wait for death. If there was a chance to escape, it would seize that opportunity without hesitation.
“Trying to run!”
Fu Zhaoxing’s figure flashed as he attempted to block Yu Doushan’s path, but he was only able to send a piece of land flying.
“Senior Brother Fu, this demon rabbit is using the Flying Roc Style again,” Fu Zhaoxing’s junior brother whispered.
“I saw it.” Fu Zhaoxing’s expression turned grim. The feeling of having a fellow disciple possessed and having their cultivation technique stolen was too terrible.
The key was that the other party had even come up with something new. They didn’t even need a half-spirit weapon to achieve the same effect.
Seeing the blood shadow, the group of people wanted to stop it, but at most, they could only sever its tail, and they couldn’t even do that. Jiao Xiangyuan used his sword as a stepping stone, and the sword light flashed as he closely followed the blood shadow.
But soon, Jiao Xiangyuan had to stop.
This kind of sword step was focused on short distance bursts, and its speed was very impressive. However, if he used it for too long, Jiao Xiangyuan’s inner strength and physical strength couldn’t keep up.
Everyone gave up. Chen Fei turned into a shadow and followed Yu Doushan. In the blink of an eye, the two disappeared from everyone’s sight.
“Junior Brother Chen’s movement technique is really fast!”
The others couldn’t help but think of Jiao Xiangyuan praising Chen Fei’s movement technique. Some people hadn’t thought it was true before and believed their own movement techniques were just as good as Chen Fei’s.
Now, there was no comparison. Even Jiao Xiangyuan, who was at the peak of the Visceral Tempering realm, was far inferior to Chen Fei in terms of movement techniques.
Jiao Xiangyuan didn’t say anything. He frowned as he looked at the spot where Chen Fei had disappeared.
If Yu Doushan managed to escape after all these hards.h.i.+ps, a bunch of rabbit demons might reappear after some time.
They all knew how to kill these rabbit demons, but the other martial artists in the mystic realm didn’t know. If Yu Doushan secretly expanded the team to a few dozen people, things would get really serious.
Chen Fei’s body leaped, using the Soul Chasing Step to the fullest. However, he could only follow Yu Doushan from afar and not catch up.
But Chen Fei wasn’t in a hurry. In order to gain a chance at survival, this rabbit demon had almost used up all the power in its body. There might be a little essence left, but without an external force, it would gradually diminish with each use. As long as Chen Fei didn’t lose track of it, he would eventually kill this rabbit demon.
“Let me go. 1’11 find those jade tokens. I know you need them!”
Yu Doushan seemed to know his fate was sealed and shouted at Chen Fei. It was a stark contrast to his previous arrogance.
It could only be said that when one’s life was threatened, many things could change.
“Alright, I promise you!” Chen Fei said loudly.
“You’re lying!”
The rabbit demon shouted angrily. Chen Fei was speechless. He suddenly remembered that the rabbit demon’s use of mental strength was an instinct. Naturally, it would be easy to tell if Chen Fei was just being polite or sincere..
