Becoming a Saint From the Iron Armor Skill

"Stop him!"

Xia Lingfeng reacted instantly. He unleashed all of his Qi Blood Power, his Primordial Gang True Force surging with wild, domineering force.

As his longsword danced wildly, his Primordial Gang True Force merged with his scorching Li Fire Sword Intent.

An area dozens of zhang wide was enveloped by a blistering Li Fire Aura. Waves of searing heat blasted outward, and the air itself seemed to ignite, turning into a vast expanse of crimson flames.

Wherever the searing heatwaves passed, rocks were scorched and trees burst into flames. It was a power that threatened to incinerate everything!

The blazing fiery blade gathered around Xia Lingfeng's longsword gradually solidified, its crimson color shifting into the brilliant white of an intensely hot, radiant sword.

He slashed down at Ghostly Wound with incredible speed, a strike meant to burn the heavens and extinguish the earth!

This was Xia Lingfeng's most powerful killing move, his ultimate trump card for survival.

Unleashing this move would consume nearly all of his Qi Blood Power. Xia Lingfeng would never use it unless he had absolutely no other choice.

But this time, he wasn't using his ultimate move to save his own life—he was using it to save Chen Cheng!

It was only because Chen Cheng had just intervened, using his Great Power Realm to disrupt Ghostly Wound, that Xia Lingfeng had managed to break through the Blood Evil Realm and turn the tables.

How could Xia Lingfeng possibly let anything happen to Chen Cheng?

Hmph!

Sensing the tyrannical aura erupting from Xia Lingfeng, Ghostly Wound snorted coldly but didn't even turn his head.

His Qi Blood Power surged madly as he pushed his Primordial Gang True Force to its limit, his hands waving in quick succession.

Streams of blood-red mist poured from his body, gathering and thickening until they instantly transformed into solid, ink-black bolts of energy.

These ink-black bolts were also condensed from the Second Layer of the Blood Evil Realm, but their power far surpassed the blood-red mist, and they radiated an utterly terrifying pressure.

Xia Lingfeng had unleashed his ultimate killing move, and Ghostly Wound was now clearly using his own trump card.

As his hands flew, he sent bolt after bolt of the ink-black energy slashing behind him at extreme speed!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The ink-black bolts clashed violently with the white radiance, unleashing an earth-shattering roar!

This was the ultimate power of the Second Layer of Li Fire Sword Intent colliding with the strongest form of the Second Layer of the Blood Evil Realm!

The very void trembled. Rocks and trees were pulverized into dust!

The aftershock of the collision sent Xia Lingfeng flying back dozens of zhang.

Nearby, Xue Huai'an and Shen Mingyuan were also blasted far away by the shockwave. Blood trickled from the corners of their mouths; they had suffered significant injuries.

Ghostly Wound didn't escape unscathed either. His Qi Blood Power grew even weaker, and faint, ashen marks appeared on his aged face.

However, he had been immersed in the Second Layer of the Blood Evil Realm for decades. His control over his Realm was clearly far superior to Xia Lingfeng's!

His figure flickered like a phantom, and with a few erratic movements, he managed to neutralize the aftershock of the Realm collision. He then shot forward another dozen or so zhang.

At the same time, he waved his palms again, unleashing a condensed, seemingly solid black energy. It surged outward, rapidly expanding to shroud an area dozens of zhang wide in a blood-red mist.

When Xia Lingfeng and the other two gave chase, they suddenly found themselves trapped in the blood-red mist.

Xia Lingfeng fared better. By silently reciting the Vast Righteous Qi Song and guarding his mind, he was able to remain clear-headed, though his Perception Ability was diminished.

Xue Huai'an and Shen Mingyuan, however, looked as if they had encountered a great horror. Terror filled their faces, and they could only subconsciously activate their own Realms to protect themselves.

Inside this blood-red mist, Ghostly Wound was undoubtedly the master, able to perceive everything.

He had expended a great deal of his Qi Blood Power, first clashing head-on and then unleashing this blood-red mist, all for the purpose of finding and killing Chen Cheng in the fog!

With Ghostly Wound's power, he wouldn't have been at a disadvantage even if he had fought Xia Lingfeng and the other two head-on.

Yet now, he found himself in this passive, defensive position—and it was undoubtedly because of Chen Cheng, a being he had regarded as a mere ant!

If Chen Cheng hadn't interfered time and time again, how could Ghostly Wound have ended up in such a state?

Logically, Chen Cheng was only a Bone Forging Realm Martial Artist. It should have been completely impossible for him to affect the battle between Ghostly Wound and Xia Lingfeng.

But against all odds, Chen Cheng was as elusive as a ghost and as cunning as a fox. Furthermore, the Great Power Realm he used was capable of affecting Ghostly Wound's Body Technique and speed.

The impact he had on Ghostly Wound was far greater than that of Xue Huai'an and Shen Mingyuan, who had arrived later!

Deep in his heart, Ghostly Wound's hatred had reached its peak. He swore he would skin Chen Cheng alive and eat him whole to quench the fury in his heart!

Even though his strength was now greatly diminished and he could no longer contend with Xia Lingfeng's group—even though he was already planning to retreat—Ghostly Wound was still determined to kill Chen Cheng first.

In the blood-red mist, Ghostly Wound was the master. Even an expert at Organ Refining Realm Perfection like Xia Lingfeng was affected.

A Bone Forging Realm Martial Artist like Chen Cheng, who had only mastered the First Layer of Great Power Realm, was nothing more than an ant. Ghostly Wound could crush him with ease!

"Little brat, your time has come!"

Ghostly Wound let out a strange cackle, but it was abruptly cut short, as if someone had suddenly seized him by the throat.

He couldn't sense Chen Cheng's aura at all. It was as if Chen Cheng had vanished into thin air!

'How is this possible?'

'That insidious little brat loves sneak attacks and taking advantage of others, doesn't he? When it was just Xia Lingfeng, he still dared to hide and launch surprise attacks. Now that Xia Lingfeng has backup and the upper hand, there's even less reason for the little brat to suddenly run away!'

As these thoughts raced through his mind, Ghostly Wound's figure moved like lightning, darting through the blood-red mist. Yet, he still couldn't perceive Chen Cheng's presence.

"Damn it! How dare that whelp deceive me!"

After scanning the area several times, Ghostly Wound finally confirmed it: that cunning little brat, as sly as a fox, had well and truly fled!
