Chapter 326: Chapter 321: The Diffusion of Blood Qi_1
What kind of pill could suppress the effect of an exploding pill?
"Commander Bai! Let him pursue the Void beasts! Cover for me for a moment!"
Xia Mo, too, was rapidly recovering thanks to Fang Ren\'s pill, but to rejuvenate the meridians that had just been depleted, he still needed a bit of time.
Bai Chaojin quickly refocused on the battlefield, feeling relatively at ease leaving the group of Void beasts to Fang Ren.
After all, the kid had the strength to defeat someone from the Yingyue Realm while he was only in the Blue Sky Realm, and now that he possessed the strength of Xuanyang Peak, even if he couldn\'t defeat those Eighth-order Void beasts, he would still be able to snatch their heads.

At this moment, Xia Fu Lan, who had been under the sea, emerged to the surface. Seeing the head of the giant snake being carried away by a practitioner whose cultivation level wasn\'t very high, a cold smile crept onto her face.
"Mu Huanqing! You just wait!"
Having spoken, she swiftly circumvented the beast group and chased after the swiftly fleeing practitioner.
Meanwhile, Fang Ren was pursuing a group of Eighth-order beasts. There were too many Void beasts on this side; he couldn\'t directly bypass them to help the practitioner who was escaping with the snake\'s head.
Actually, he hadn\'t planned on playing the rescuer; after all, being with Mu Huanqing was where he felt most at ease.
But he suddenly thought of something Qianye had once told him. It said that a massive group of beasts would soon descend from the Void, and his Asura path could reach a complete state by slaughtering these creatures, and his Nine Techniques of Lethal Combat would further be perfected.
His Realm would soar as a result.
If he could use the Asura Slaughter Blade to slay such a large group of Void beasts, indeed, his Realm could rapidly increase. And now was the opportunity. He could rush to the outskirts where no senior soldiers were present, and no one would discover he was a member of the "Nightfall Organization" from Linglong Bay.
Because he couldn\'t employ the Asura Slaughter Blade, dealing with the vast beast group was tricky, and quickly breaking through the encirclement was nearly impossible.
As large swaths of high-order Void beasts left the battlefield, the human practitioners found a moment to breathe.
As the distance from the center of the battlefield grew, the presence of human senior soldiers faded from Fang Ren\'s Divine Sense.
With the battlefield\'s perimeter over ten thousand meters away and so many human soldiers obstructing the view, it should be safe enough.
He roughly estimated the remaining time of the Slaughter Heaven Pill\'s effect in his body and hesitated no more. The sea of blood behind him spread once again across the sky, and with a leap, he charged from the rear of the Void beast group straight into their midst.
"Blade Dance!"
Hum—
A hundred-meter-long Giant Scythe rose up in the midst of the beast group, spilling blood across the sky. Before this Blood Red Scythe, all defenses of the Eighth-order Void beasts were as frail as paper. As soon as they were touched by the bloody radiance, they would be sliced in two in an instant.
Fang Ren, who had charged into the beast group, was also severely wounded by the high-order beasts\' counterattack, his chest a bloody mess. However, this pain was practically negligible compared to the suffering he endured while practicing the Asura path.
That was truly grinding flesh and scraping bones countless times!
For a moment, the sky was filled with the roars and wails of giant beasts.
But these wails and angry roars, to Fang Ren\'s ears, only served to heighten his excitement. As the slaughter began, more and more Void beasts fell to the sickle, and Fang Ren felt the madness in his brain was about to burst.
His eyes slowly became covered by a mist of blood, and the flesh on his face twisted into a visage of terror.
He laughed wildly, hacking away without the slightest fear, with only one thought of slaughter left in his heart. Just as when he fought amidst corpses on the Asura path, even if only a single bone was left of him, he would not hesitate to use it to pierce his enemy\'s skull.
The red radiance cut through all the beasts blocking his way. His sickle dripped with the limbs of a Void beast, and in his other bloody hand, he held the head of a tiger-shaped beast. The blood-red aura behind him grew stronger, and the terrifying aura of resentment and death caused some of the surrounding Void beasts to tremble. Explore stories on m,v l-NovelFire
For a while, the beast group that surrounded him stopped their assault, beginning to retreat.
Their intelligence was not low, and they each had a heart unafraid of death, but no matter how resolute they were, their bodies involuntarily shrank away when faced with that sea of blood.
Just like the leader of the giant snake, they were irresistible.
"Come... come!" Fang Ren\'s hideously smiling lips murmured softly, his inner madness making him unable to help but let out a skyward howl: "Ahh!"
The Giant Scythe danced again, with countless more giants turning into a spray of blood in an instant.
"Hahaha! Die! All of you die! Not one left!!"
His scream was piercing, sounding nothing like a human, but like a demon from the depths, making one\'s flesh crawl.
The surrounding Void beasts quickly stopped attacking him because this creature was too eerie, as if it would never die no matter how many wounds it suffered. Their brains wouldn\'t let them continue fighting this entity, they had to follow the giant snake\'s orders and chase after that head!
A massive number of high-order Void beasts that had set out to kill Fang Ren, at that instant, all began to flee towards the distance, while Fang Ren, like a demon from hell, chased after them, never ceasing to strike.
No matter how he hacked, not a single beast in front of him dared to look back.
If one were to look up at the sky from the ground, they would see the sky covered by a massive, sweeping shadow that looms over everything; and behind this grand array, a smaller shadow could be seen frantically pursuing them, as if it were their natural predator, instilling fear in them.
As Fang Ren killed more and more, the Realm strengthened by Dan medicine also became more stable due to his continuous enhancement of his Cultivation Level through slaughter. Before entering the battlefield, his true Realm was at the midterm phase of Yingyue Realm, but now, he may have reached the Peak of Yingyue Realm.
Along with his killings, what also changed was the blood qi behind him, which like a greedy abyss, kept absorbing the essence of the ascended spirits killed by Fang Ren, growing more gigantic with each absorption.
When the blood qi expanded a hundred meters wide, indistinct shadows could be observed inside, twisting and dancing about. These shadows, with their gaping maws, were churning violently within the blood qi, tearing and biting as if demons about to crawl out of the abyss.

Meanwhile, the Practitioner at the very front, who clutched the head of a Giant Snake, was nearly exhausted of his True Qi. He was just a Practitioner of the Yingyue Realm, and the fact that he managed to flee this long with a large group of Void Beasts in pursuit was already an incredibly difficult feat.
Thump!
Suddenly, his meridians pulsed, and he knew his True Qi had been completely depleted!
"It\'s over!"
As his True Qi ran dry, the Practitioner fell straight from midair and crashed onto the ground.
He turned back to look at the coming tide of Void Beast Group, clenching his teeth fiercely as he bashed the snake head he held with his hands.
Even before, when he used his Cultivation Technique, he couldn\'t destroy this snake head; now with just the physical strength of his hands, how could he cause even the slightest damage?
But he couldn\'t bear to give up!
He broke his own arms, then kicked with his legs, bit with his teeth, hoping to destroy even just a bit of that snake head.
"Give me the head fast!"
Just as the soldier was in the grips of despair, suddenly a voice rang out; he lifted his head and immediately became excited, "Princess Fulan! Take this head and run! Try to destroy it if you can!"
The soldier handed over the head to Xia Fu Lan without hesitation, and Xia Fu Lan fled immediately without even finishing hearing the soldier\'s words.
The approaching beast group closed in from behind, and the soldier knelt on the ground, smiling as he watched the snake head successfully taken away.
Finally, he had completed the mission assigned by the district leader.
Schlick!
A Void Beast flew by, and the soldier was smashed into a puddle of blood.
Even in his dying moment, he never imagined that he had entrusted the head to the wrong person.
Having obtained the head, Xia Fu Lan sprinted away; of course, she had not destroyed the snake head as the soldier had suggested, as it was the weapon she planned to use to kill Mu Huanqing.
Although she had the head, Xia Fu Lan couldn\'t return to the battlefield because the Void Beasts chasing her obscured the sky.
"Damn it! It looks like I have to use that talisman!"
Xia Fu Lan gritted her teeth and crushed the escape talisman her father had given her.
Whir——
A beam of light flashed, and Xia Fu Lan\'s figure vanished within the light.
The next moment, she appeared on the ruins somewhere within Tianjiang.
The talisman her father gave her was a very precious remote Teleportation Talisman, capable of reaching a predetermined location within a hundred miles.
The designated teleportation location for her talisman was her hotel, but by now the hotel had collapsed into ruins after the large-scale invasion of the Void Beasts.
"Finally escaped! Now I just need to find a way to bypass the beast group and reach the battlefield! Mu Huanqing..." Xia Fu Lan\'s face showed a triumphant excitement and a cold resolve: "Last time, I made you fail! This time, I\'ll make sure you die!"
——
——
As Xia Fu Lan disappeared with the head of the Giant Snake, the vast beast group instantly became restless.
The target had slipped away!
The Giant Snake had given them a death order! If they couldn\'t bring the head back safely, they would definitely all be devoured by the Giant Snake after the grand battle!
"Roar!"
After a brief agitation, the vast Void Beast Group started to disperse in the skies, some bursting into Tianjiang, some plunging into the sea... all scattering to search for the lost head.
