Martial Arts Overlord

Chapter 1236 - 1233: Doomed Lovers

The night grew deeper; the moon in the sky quietly hid itself behind the clouds.

The wasteland was deathly silent; even the roars of wild beasts had quieted down. Yet in the not-too-large stretch of forest, the atmosphere was tyrannical and tense to the extreme.

Within a radius of several hundred meters, everything was filled with the traces of Blood Crows condensed from True Yuan—densely packed, blotting out the sky, like a storm of blood, bombarding Luo Feng and Jiang Fengfeng madly and indiscriminately, forcing the two to scramble to cope. The ground was blasted open with terrifying cracks, and the entire forest was left unrecognizable.

"Moving Clouds Inconstant!"

Handing the Sword Heart Heaven Jade to Jiang Fengfeng, Luo Feng immediately pushed Sky Cloud Step to its limit. His figure flickered again and again, becoming illusory and unpredictable like drifting clouds, slipping through gaps to avoid the lunging True Yuan Blood Crows, shooting toward Blood Crow Elder at the edge of the storm.

"Hm? You can actually completely avoid my Blood Crow storm! What an impressive brat!"

A cold gleam flashed in Blood Crow Elder’s eyes, and intense killing intent burst from his pupils.

This move was something even he didn’t have full confidence in dodging. He had thought Luo Feng and Jiang Fengfeng definitely couldn’t avoid it and would only be worn to death by the Blood Crow storm.

He simply hadn’t expected Luo Feng’s Qinggong realm to be this strong—far beyond his imagination.

Swish! Swish!

After several flashes, Luo Feng arrived at the edge of the Blood Crow storm, less than ten meters from Blood Crow Elder.

"Autumn Rain Soul Disconnecting Saber!"

His figure suddenly halted; Luo Feng gripped his saber with both hands, his blood-red pupils drawing out two streaks of cold light in the night as he slashed.

Chi!

Countless tiny saber lights condensed into a Canglong Qi Force, whipping its head and tail, shredding all the nearby True Yuan Blood Crows into powder and charging straight at Blood Crow Elder.

"Overestimating yourself!"

Blood Crow Elder’s face showed a cold smile; he had no intention of dodging. Blood Gang burst from his dagger, instantly hacking out a cross-shaped Slash Mark.

Boom!

The cross-shaped Slash Mark collided with the Canglong Qi Force; a terrifying shockwave exploded outward, ripping the ground around them into six- to seven-meter-deep fissures that spread like a spiderweb in all directions.

Immediately after, the Canglong Qi Force was completely shattered, and more than half of the Slash Mark was worn away—then smashed to pieces by one punch from Luo Feng.

"He blocked it!"

Blood Crow Elder’s gaze trembled slightly; he could hardly believe it.

Though he was heavily injured, he still had about sixty to seventy percent of his strength. With his Cultivation, even at only sixty to seventy percent, killing a Martial Artist at the third level of the True Yuan Realm wouldn’t take much effort. He couldn’t figure out how Luo Feng, who was only at the peak of the second level of the True Yuan Realm, could block his frontal strike.

"Hmph, let’s see how you dodge this move!"

His eyes narrowed slightly; Blood Crow Elder looked at Luo Feng as if he were already a dead man. The blood-colored True Yuan around him transformed into a gigantic Blood Crow.

The Blood Crow was nearly five meters tall, its blood-colored feathers sharply etched, its pupils bright-red like fresh blood, its entire body exuding a vast, evil aura.

"Blood Crow Black Wind Slash!"

With a cold shout, Blood Crow Elder reversed his grip on the dagger and hacked against the flow.

At once, a strange shriek resounded. The Blood Crow’s whole body erupted in blood light, carrying a demonic aura as it rampaged toward Luo Feng. Wherever it passed, the air tore with the sound of cloth being ripped, its ferocity towering to the heavens—countless times more terrifying than that cross-shaped Slash Mark just now.

Luo Feng drove Divine Dragon Nine Changes to the limit; Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber erupted with a Saber Gang three to four zhang long. As his arm swung, the ribbon-like Saber Gang dragged layer upon layer of afterimages in the void, cleaving down at the giant Blood Crow’s claws.

Boom!

With a deafening blast, the Saber Gang and the Blood Crow’s claws clashed hundreds of times in an instant. Luo Feng felt a vast, crushing force surging over him like collapsing mountains and overturning seas; his chest churned with blood and Qi, and he was forced into retreat, on the verge of being swallowed by the Blood Crow at any moment.

"Step of Sky-Burning Monarch!"

At the critical moment, dazzling golden flames erupted across Luo Feng’s body; he stomped heavily onto the ground.

Boom!

The ground within several hundred meters sank several meters in an instant. Luo Feng’s fist slammed into the giant Blood Crow’s body, and his whole figure dropped down into the earth with the force.

Boom boom boom boom boom...

The giant Blood Crow streaked over Luo Feng’s head in a flash, and then an earth-shattering roar erupted.

A fan-shaped crater a thousand meters long appeared in the forest ahead; every plant and tree within was pulverized, and even the ground itself had been scraped down by more than a foot!

"He dodged it?"

This Blood Tooth Black Wind Slash of Blood Crow Elder had immense power and an extremely wide attack range, but it also consumed True Yuan crazily. In his current state, it was no small burden. He had originally planned to one-shot Luo Feng with it, but hadn’t expected it to be dodged yet again.

"Let’s see where you run this time!"

Murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Blood Crow Elder stamped the ground, his figure pouncing toward Luo Feng, intending to completely finish him off this time.

However, just as he moved, an astonishingly sharp aura suddenly erupted at his side, making his heart tighten inexplicably.

With Luo Feng pinning down Blood Crow Elder, Jiang Fengfeng finally broke free of the Blood Crow storm. Sword Heart Heaven Jade appeared before her; with a finger infused with Sword Intent, she tapped accurately onto Sword Heart Heaven Jade!

Buzz!

At once, a shocking sharp aura soared into the sky. Sword Heart Heaven Jade quivered slightly, and the sword-shaped groove at its center shot out a seven-colored illusory Sword Shadow, dazzling in the night, then merged into the silver longsword in Jiang Fengfeng’s hand.

"Take this sword of mine! Hidden Moon Shadowless!"

Jiang Fengfeng took a step forward; the silver sword, now fused with the seven-colored Sword Shadow, erupted with a piercing sword glow—and vanished into the void.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

The entire night sky was pierced through; three terrifying silver-moon sword lights appeared all around Blood Crow Elder, cleaving down at him from midair.

"A mere Martial Artist at the fourth level of the True Yuan Realm dares run wild in front of me? Very well, I’ll kill you first, then kill Luo Feng, and let you become a pair of doomed mandarin ducks!"

Being driven into such a sorry state by the attempt to kill a second-level and a fourth-level True Yuan Realm Martial Artist, Blood Crow Elder’s fury reached its peak. He pushed his Protective Gang Energy to the limit and shot toward Jiang Fengfeng, intending to tank the Sword Qi once more and take the chance to kill her.

Boom!

The first strand of Sword Qi slashed down, exploding with a shocking roar. The Protective Gang Energy around Blood Crow Elder nearly shattered; his whole body staggered, and a thread of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

"Impossible!"

Blood Crow Elder was horrified. The opponent was clearly only at the fourth level of the True Yuan Realm and even injured; she shouldn’t pose any real threat to him—this had already been proven just moments ago, which was why he had felt confident in taking the Sword Qi head-on.

Yet now, a single sword strike had nearly broken his Protective Gang Energy; her strength was already on par with a Martial Artist at the fifth level of the True Yuan Realm!

"Blood Crow Explosion!"

Without a trace of hesitation, Blood Crow Elder’s eyes bloodshot, he pushed all his True Yuan to the limit, condensing it outside his body into a Blood Crow phantom—which abruptly detonated.

Intense blood light exploded forth, like a gigantic blood sun rising in the night, colliding with the two strands of Sword Qi.

Boom!

Thunderous explosions resounded; the air within several hundred meters twisted violently, then shattered and collapsed. In an instant, everything was reduced to nothingness.
