After Lu Yuan’s Sword Qi flew out, it instantly arrived in front of the flame Bi Fang formed by the five Flame Feather Swords.
Under the astonished gaze of Bi Fang, his Flame Bi Fang was broken by Lu Yuan’s sword in a single strike.
The ferocious Bi Fang Fire could not even pose much of a threat to Lu Yuan.
After losing control of the five Flame Feather Swords, the large amount of Bi Fang Fire immediately scattered in all directions.
Lu Yuan’s Sword Qi’s remaining power did not diminish as it rushed toward Bi Fang.
Facing this stunning Sword Qi, Bi Fang roared in anger.
Then, the phantom of the divine beast Bi Fang appeared instantly behind him.
Immediately after, Bi Fang’s body began to change similar to Chen Yan’s, but his transformation was deeper than Chen Yan’s. The range of his transformation had already covered his lower abdomen.
It was almost equivalent to fusing 30% of the divine beast Bi Fang’s power.
With this enhancement, Bi Fang’s strength began to rise visibly, eventually reaching the Core Formation Stage transition eight of the cultivation.
Then, Bi Fang directly opened his hand and grabbed at Lu Yuan’s Sword Qi.
Swoosh!
The sword Qi struck Bi Fang’s palm and immediately emitted a piercing cutting sound, like a cutting machine hitting a steel plate.
Despite Lu Yuan’s efforts, his sword Qi posed little threat to Bi Fang, who had completed the Heavenly Devil Possession.
Pa!
With a forceful squeeze, Bi Fang effortlessly crushed the sword Qi.
Then, Bi Fang looked at Lu Yuan with a serious expression and said, “Lu Yuan, if you lived in a place like the Upper Realm where resources are abundant, 1 wouldn’t be your opponent.”
“Unfortunately, you live in the Lower Realm, where not only lack cultivation resources but also cultivation techniques and divine abilities.”
“With your talent, you should have been able to reach a higher level. However, due to the limitations of the environment, your achievements are limited.”
No wonder Bi Fang was so confident. The difference in strength between him and Lu Yuan was too great.
Even though Bi Fang had reached this stage, he was still unable to sense Lu Yuan’s actual cultivation level.
However, from the previous exchange, Bi Fang had already roughly deduced Lu Yuan’s strength level.
Lu Yuan was not in the Core Formation Stage because Bi Fang couldn’t sense the power of the golden core in his spiritual energy.
The so-called power of the golden core was a special type of energy that surpassed ordinary spiritual energy.
This kind of power was no longer just pure attribute spiritual energy.
Instead, it was the multi-attribute spiritual energy that came with the fusion of the spiritual roots into the golden core.
Furthermore, this spiritual energy was not a simple fusion, but almost a partial integration with each other.
Such spiritual energy was much more resilient than ordinary single-attribute spiritual energy and possessed even greater power.
This was one of the biggest differences between the Core Formation Stage cultivators and the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
Although Lu Yuan had many tricks up his sleeve, the strength he displayed was also very good.
However, Lu Yuan’s absolute difference in cultivation made Bi Fang feel that he had already seen through Lu Yuan’s tricks.
This was a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator with extraordinary talent.
However, no matter how powerful a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator was, he was still a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator!
Thinking of this, Bi Fang started to mock himself.
If he had known that Lu Yuan was only a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, perhaps he wouldn’t have let Bai Dafei off so easily.
It was really because when Lu Yuan had just appeared, he gave Bi Fang too much pressure, causing it to mistakenly think that Lu Yuan was some powerful Core Formation Stage cultivator.
Bi Fang scared himself. At least, that was what Bi Fang thought.
How strong could a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator be? A mere Foundation Establishment Stage…
Just as Bi Fang thought it had seen through Lu Yuan’s true situation and was prepared to take him down on the spot, a situation that exceeded his expectations appeared.
A large amount of death aura appeared beside Lu Yuan, causing the surrounding air to visibly decrease in temperature.
Despite it being daytime, Bi Fang felt a bone-chilling cold instead of warmth.
Although it was a strange feeling, it was undeniably real.
If it were just a death aura, it wouldn’t have caused such a commotion for Bi Fang.
The source of the fear was the chain that materialized behind Lu Yuan.
It was a chain that emitted a deep light.
The chain that was between illusion and reality seemed to have a fluctuation that could devour souls.
Bi Fang felt a strong sense of danger emanating from it.
What was this?
Looking at the chain on Lu Yuan’s back, Bi Fang felt danger for the first time.
The current situation had surpassed his expectations. Although Lu Yuan had been powerful before, Bi Fang had been confident that he could deal with him.
However, when Lu Yuan took out the strange chain, Bi Fang felt like things were out of his control.
A cultivator from the Lower Realm possessed something that made him feel dangerous.
Was this the Lower Realm, or was their place the Lower Realm?
Without any hesitation, Bi Fang turned around and ran when it sensed danger.
Fight? What could he have used to fight?
This guy was too strange. If they had continued to fight, Bi Fang felt that even if he could have won, it would have been a miserable victory.
Moreover, he couldn’t have guaranteed that he would win.
Running away when he couldn’t have won was not embarrassing!
Seeing that Bi Fang wanted to run, Lu Yuan naturally wouldn’t have let him leave so easily.
“I even used the Soul Reaper Rope, how could you escape so easily?” he thought, facing Bi Fang’s fleeing figure. Lu Yuan then directly extended his hand.
In the next second, the Soul Reaper Rope that had appeared behind him instantly flew out.
The Soul Reaper Rope split apart instantly, transforming into numerous chains that flew toward Bi Fang.
The speed was so fast that it was even faster than Bi Fang currently using the Heavenly Devil’s Possession.
The Soul Reaper Rope, whistling through the air, was like a living poisonous snake, instantly surrounding the Bi Fang.
Although Bi Fang could not recognize what these chains were, he could still sense the danger of the chains.
“Get out of here!”
Bi Fang roared, and his Bi Fang power erupted completely.
Countless flames were emitted from his body, trying to force back the Soul Reaper Rope.
However, these Soul Reaper Rope that was between reality and illusion were not something that ordinary divine ability could touch.
These Soul Reaper Ropes were like phantoms, directly passing through the Bi Fang’s flame and instantly stabbing into his body.
“All!”
When the hooks were fully attached to the Bi Fang, he immediately screamed.
Then, the two divine souls began to be pulled out of the Bi Fang’s body by the Soul Reaper Rope.
One of these two divine souls was Bi Fang’s soul.
The other was the Bi Fang power that was residing in his body.
Or rather, it was the remnant soul of the Beast of Antiquity, Bi Fang.
Although Bi Fang had already tried his best to stop his divine soul from leaving his body, Lu Yuan suddenly exerted his force.
Two divine souls were instantly extracted by him!
The power of the Soul Reaper Rope was terrifying..
