Chapter 196 Charging Forward on the Path of Blood!
Chu Xun examined his body and frowned. “It is worse than I imagined!”
The fourth move of Demon-slain Finger was way too advanced for someone with his cultivation to use. Since he used the move forcibly, multiple veins in his body burst and even his organs had cracks on them. His once clear bones had also turned dull.
He tried to repair his body using True Energy, but it was to no avail. About eighty percent of his True Energy was already spent.
It cost him a lot to use the fourth move, but it was worthwhile since it eliminated more than thirty presbyters.
The crimson light in Chu Xun’s devilish eyes did not diminish as he looked toward Chen Wuhui and the rest.
All of them looked extremely pale. Their hair were messy and their clothes had been ripped into pieces.
Despite surviving the earlier attack, they were still badly injured. If those dead presbyters had not blocked most of the power of that storm for them, they would never have made it through alive.
Chu Xun once bathed in the blood of Ancestral Dragon and he was also trained in Azure Dragon’s Tyrannical Physique Technique, so the toughness of his body was beyond comparison.
Therefore, their injuries were more severe than Chu Xun’s.
Chen Wuhui’s pale face become distorted due to hatred and regret. “So many presbyters of Heaven Tao Sect are gone just like that... They are the treasures and foundation of Heaven Tao Sect...”
The others did not look good either. They knew better than anyone that their strength now was not even at one tenth of their peak condition.
Chu Xun stared at them like a beast thirsty for blood.
They could not relax at this moment. They only hoped that Chu Xun was just as badly injured and unable to fight as well.
Puff!
Chu Xun spat out a mouthful of blood. He tried to move, yet his movements triggered his injuries and disturbed the blood flow in his body.
Chen Wuhui and others were stunned at first, then looked extremely happy. It seemed that Chu Xun was badly injured as well.
“Master Yan, please take care of them. I will give you my thanks in the near future.” Long Ao said to Yan Yi, while pointing at Chu Tianhe and his wife. He seemed to be filled with a killing intent.
Yan Yi immediately replied politely, “Rest assured I will do all I can to keep them safe.” Facing a grade-nine Grandmaster, he did not dare to show any disrespect.
“Thanks a lot!” Long Ao said as he clasped his hands in front of him. He then rushed toward Chu Xun.
“Stand away. I will crush these scums.” Long Ao said. He had been holding back his anger for too long, now he needed to shed some blood as well.
Chen Wuhui and the others cursed inwardly. “He is a grade-nine Grandmaster, we cannot be his opponent even in our peak condition, let alone now. If he attacks, we will surely die.”
“I will do it myself.” Chu Xun said drily in his hoarse voice.
“Do you want to die?” Long Ao said in a deep voice. He was startled by Chu Xun’s reply.
Chu Xun remained silent for a while and looked at Chen Wuhui, then he dashed toward them all of a sudden.
“I will kill you!”
Chu Xun shouted angrily and channeled all the True Energy left in his body to his fists. He then formed fist signets and charged forward.
It started snowing again.
Chu Xun’s punch might not have its greatest strength now, yet it was still so powerful that the wind started to blow wherever his fists traveled.
Chen Wuhui’s face now turned gloomy. He retreated hastily and tried to dodge the incoming attack.
Bang!
A grade-six Grandmaster was knocked into the air by Chu Xun as he was too slow. His entire chest caved in and his heart was shattered.
“Wu Changfeng, it is your turn to die.”
Chu Xun growled and charged toward Wu Changfeng with his fist held high.
Wu Changfeng was already injured by Chu Xun and he also spent a lot of energy activating the formation. After being attacked by the storm, his body felt hollow. He had spent all his Internal Breath and had grown even weaker than the other grade-six Grandmasters.
Chu Xun’s fast punch hit his shoulder fiercely.
Crack!
With a jarring sound of bones breaking, Wu Changfeng’s shoulder blade was smashed by Chu Xun’s punch.
Wu Changfeng screamed due to the immense pain.
Chu Xun punched out again and hit his rib cage.
Multiple cracking sounds were heard. Apparently this punch broke pretty much all of Wu Changfeng’s ribs.
“Ahh...” Wu Changfeng suddenly let out a miserable shriek.
Chen Wuhui and the others’ faces had fear and panic written all over them as they hurriedly stepped back.
That was because Chu Xun used his hand as a claw to pierce through Wu Changfeng’s body and pulled one of his ribs out.
They all felt their hairs standing on end when they saw that.
Boom!
Chu Xun punched Wu Changfeng’s face and smashed the bones there. He then punched again and Wu Changfeng’s chest caved in. Bones pierced through his skin and were exposed and there was still blood dripping from them. The air was filled with the pungent, sickly smell of blood.
Bang! Bang!
Chu Xun continued punching his fist as if he was not exhausted at all. With each punch, new blood spilled all over him, yet he did not seem to be bothered by that at all.
Wu Changfeng did not even have any strength left to scream. Almost all his bones had been smashed by Chu Xun. Now he just laid on the ground like a pile of mud and moved slowly.
Bang!
His head was smashed by Chu Xun’s foot. There was blood and pieces of his bones everywhere.
Chu Xun punched again and an energy ball formed with his True Energy was channeled into Wu Changfeng’s body. His body then exploded and his flesh was scattered all over the place.
The First Presbyter of Heaven Tao Sect died just like that, without any dignity. Even a dog would not have died as horrendously as him, being smashed to death.
“I will kill you all!”
Chu Xun shouted furiously again and charged toward Chen Wuhui. He raised his fist without even thinking.
Chen Wuhui trembled in fear.
“Let us counter him together.”
He knew too well what his current condition was like. Fighting Chu Xun alone now would cost him his life, so he tried to persuade the others to fight back together.
“We must stop him.”
Soul Lord said as he stepped back. His face looked dark and gloomy. Apparently his injuries had also taken a toll on him.
Seeing that Chu Xun was approaching, he became anxious, so he pulled King of Poison over and pushed him toward Chu Xun.
King of Poison’s face immediately turned green with fear.
Chu Xun penetrated his chest using his fist without any hesitation.
“Soul Lord, you bastard... I hope you die!” King of Poison shouted.
Puff!
Blood was spilled all over Chu Xun’s face. In his hand was a beating, crimson heart which he crushed in the next second.
King of Poison’s corpse hit the ground immediately. There was a hole in his chest about the size of a fist and his heart was missing.
Chu Xun kept charging forward.
Chen Wuhui and the others stepped back hurriedly. They were even more terrified after seeing King of Poison’s heart being pulled out of his body.
“Chen Wuhui, you will die right now!” Chu Xun screamed like a wounded beast.
Chen Wuhui, Soul Lord and Blood Hand were all grade-eight Grandmasters, so their injuries were less severe than the others’ and they made a quick getaway.
Chu Xun waved his hand and transformed his last trace of True Energy into one Reincarnation Line.
With a flick of his finger, the Reincarnation Line shot out.
Puff!
The Reincarnation Line pierced through the throat of a grade-six Grandmaster and blood gushed out of the hole.
Swoosh!
The Reincarnation Line suddenly changed its course like a bloodthirsty white serpent and it went into another grade-six Grandmaster’s head through its temple and came out from the back of his head.
Puff!
Blood was continuously spilling all over the place. This Reincarnation Line was even scarier than a sharp blade. The remaining grade-six Grandmasters were taken down one after another.
Chu Xun continued charging forward. There were about ten corpses behind him and their blood painted the ground red. He charged forward on this path of blood.
More than ten grade-six Grandmasters were all slaughtered in the blink of an eye.
Now only five people were left — Chen Wuhui, Soul Lord, Blood Hand, the householder of Wuji Sect and the householder of Arhat Sect.
The householder of Wuji Sect was extremely petrified as well. He was badly injured and his Internal Breath had been drained from his body. Judging from his staggering walk, he could not sustain himself any longer.
Chu Xun’s True Energy was almost drained as well. Now he could only barely control that single Reincarnation Line.
He was merely pushing through using his physical strength.
