Becoming a Saint From the Iron Armor Skill

Chapter 463: Chapter 232: Cannot Escape

The expressions of the sisters, Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang, changed drastically, and their first instinct was to run.

But they saw Chen Cheng standing motionless, Long Saber in hand, apparently with no intention of running away.

The two sisters hesitated for a moment and decided not to flee immediately either.

They were both sharp-witted. Though terrified beyond belief, they quickly assessed the situation.

Even Liu Hong—the Vice Director of the Demon Suppression Department, a master at Great Success in the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm who had grasped the Rain Covering Realm—had turned and fled in a panic the moment he recognized Ghostly Wound.

That alone was a testament to the terrifying extent of Ghostly Wound’s Martial Arts Power!

He was most likely an Organ Refining Realm Martial Artist, and an exceptionally powerful one at that.

’We’re only Small Success Martial Artists in the Bone Forging Realm. How could we possibly escape from an expert like Ghostly Wound?’

’But just sitting here waiting to die doesn’t feel right either!’

’If we take advantage of the chaos and flee with the Wang Family members, we might have a slim chance of escaping with our lives.’

At this thought, a maelstrom of emotions churned within the sisters, and they repeatedly shot meaningful glances at Chen Cheng.

But Chen Cheng didn’t seem to get the hint. He remained completely still, staring blankly at Ghostly Wound.

"Hm...?" Seeing their reactions, Ghostly Wound let out a soft sound of surprise. "Boy, why aren’t you running away with the others?" he asked.

Chen Cheng seemed to snap out of his stupor. A panicked look appeared on his face as he hastily sheathed his Long Saber and shouted to Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang:

"Senior Sisters, what are you standing there for? That’s the Black Lotus Sect Leader! He’s incredibly powerful! We have to run for our lives!"

Hearing this, Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang were both exasperated and frantic.

’So after all this time, Junior Brother Chen was just frozen in fear by Ghostly Wound!’

Ghostly Wound chuckled, thinking to himself, ’In the end, it seems I overestimated this young man after all.’

’This young man certainly has a steadier temperament than the others, but when faced with a true life-or-death crisis, his reactions are far too slow!’

"No need to run! None of you will escape!"

With a calm declaration, Ghostly Wound suddenly raised his hand. Ripples of energy surged out from his body.

The aura of these ripples was incredibly condensed and carried an immense pressure, making it seem as if Ghostly Wound’s entire body was enveloped in a blood-red mist!

"Go!"

Ghostly Wound gently waved his hand, and several streaks of blood-red light shot out from the mist, flying at incredible speed in different directions!

The streaks of blood-red light were not particularly loud or imposing; as they tore through the air, they only produced a faint hum.

But as they shot forth, an area of several hundred meters around was faintly enveloped in an utterly terrifying pressure.

Merely facing this pressure was almost suffocating and completely overwhelming!

Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang wanted to break into a sprint, but under this pressure, they couldn’t move a single step.

As Chen Cheng felt this pressure, he could clearly perceive the incredibly powerful Blood Evil aura condensed within the streaks of red light, and his eyes narrowed involuntarily!

’Ghostly Wound truly lives up to his name as the Black Lotus Sect Leader. The moment he acts, he unleashes an incredibly powerful killing technique!’

’This streak of blood-red light must be the power of a Second Layer Realm!’

Although Chen Cheng was alarmed, he still made no move, because the streaks of blood-red light were not aimed at him, Shen Qingyao, or Shen Qingshuang.

Instead, they were heading for the few people who were fleeing!

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

Amidst the faint hum, Wang Xiongying and the others, who had already fled dozens of meters away, were struck down by the streaks of blood-red light. They fell to the ground, their fate unknown!

The last and largest streak of blood-red light shot toward Liu Hong, who had already escaped onto the cliff face by the waterfall.

Liu Hong was prepared. Sensing the attack, he mobilized his body’s Qi Blood Power to form an enormous Water Element Sword Intent and slashed it toward the streak of blood-red light.

BOOM!

The Water Element Sword Intent crashed into the streak of blood-red light, erupting with a violent roar!

The Sword Intent dissipated in an instant, while the streak of blood-red light, having had most of its Blood Evil aura consumed, was greatly diminished in power.

With a quick flash of movement, Liu Hong easily dodged it!

BOOM!

The remaining Blood Evil aura from the streak of light slammed into the hard cliff face, blasting out a deep pit over ten feet wide!

"Hah! To think a brat like you could block one of my attacks with just a First Layer Gui Water Realm!

Again!"

Ghostly Wound spoke calmly, waving his hand in succession. Several more streaks of blood-red light shot across the distance toward Liu Hong!

This time, Ghostly Wound was clearly using more of his strength. The streaks of light were suffused with a sharp, malevolent aura that made the very air tremble and hum!

Liu Hong’s expression changed drastically. He unleashed all of his Qi Blood Power, and ripples of energy enveloped the area several meters around him.

The gushing waterfall seemed to freeze beside him as streams of Water Element aura gathered into a Water Element Sword Intent several meters long, which he swung at the incoming streaks of blood-red light!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The streaks of blood-red light struck the Water Element Sword Intent, erupting in an earth-shattering series of roars!

The Water Element Sword Intent was far less condensed than the streaks of blood-red light and was shattered piece by piece!

However, the Water Element Sword Intent was, after all, much larger. At the final moment of its collapse, the streaks of blood-red light also completely dissipated!

Liu Hong seized the opportunity. With a quick flash, he leaped up several more meters, about to dive into the opening on the cliff where the waterfall emerged.

A waterfall with such a large flow must be connected to an underground water source.

Since Liu Hong had mastered the Rain Covering Realm, he could easily use the water source to make his escape and flee with his life!

It had to be said, Liu Hong was a meticulous person, and his plan was exceptionally thorough!

Even Ghostly Wound couldn’t help but frown!

In terms of raw power, even ten Liu Hongs combining their First Layer Rain Covering Realms would be no match for his Second Layer Blood Evil Realm.
