Chapter 636: Chapter 503 Fierce Battle with Blood Robe

“Who is that?”

The people on the shore looked at the suddenly emerging Demon Soul, still unsure of the situation.

Even the tentacles of the Demon Cultivator that surged out of the Blood Cloud froze in place when they were slashed and severed.

Although unintentionally, the Demon Soul indeed saved these people.

The tall, thin youth in the teahouse group focused intently on the Demon Soul in mid-air and said seriously, “If I remember correctly, such a person wasn’t on the ship.”

The robust man suddenly thought of something: “Then he must have been here to begin with. Could he be an accomplice, just putting on a show for us?”

The smallest youth rubbed his forehead: “Wang Hu, stop talking. You’re embarrassing us…”

The tall, thin youth explained, “First, considering the strength of that Demon Cultivator who swallowed the Thunder Type person in one gulp, there’s no need for them to put on a show against us.

Second, that Blood Robed Youth’s slash just now was indeed real. At least… I couldn’t block it!”

“Is that so…” The robust man chuckled, “Who cares, the enemy of our enemy is our friend. Let’s see if this person can hold out. If he can, we shouldn’t run around aimlessly and risk encountering other enemies.

But if something goes wrong, we’ll immediately look for a chance to escape.”

The tall, thin youth gave him a glance: “Heh, you’re usually foolish, but you’re quite sharp at this moment.”

“Of course~”

…

The people below were discussing animatedly, while the Demon Soul and the Blood Robed Youth exchanged glances in mid-air before clashing again!

“Crush him!”

The Blood Robed Youth lifted his hand in a grasping motion. The blood-colored Buddha Hands that had just emerged from the Blood Cloud changed direction and all struck towards the Demon Soul!

Blue Flames surged from the Demon Soul, immediately activating the Great Sun Burning Body Technique. After slicing through two or three approaching Blood Hands, he turned into a blue fire shadow and rushed towards the Blood Robed Youth.

The Blood Robed Youth snorted coldly, opened his right hand, and a Blood Sword materialized in his grasp amidst a surge of blood.

Watching the rushing Demon Soul, the Blood Robed Youth swung his sword!

“Clang!”

Sword and blade clashed. The Blood Robed Youth’s pupils contracted as he was forced back several steps!

Although the Blood Cloud behind him supported him with no apparent injuries, the Blood Robed Youth’s eyes showed a sharp focus.

“This person’s strength is almost as strong as Chou Wuliang!”

With a grin, the Demon Soul charged forward once more.

However, the Blood Robed Youth formed a hand seal with his left hand, and the Blood Cloud around him suddenly became more viscous.

Sensing something, the Demon Soul stopped his attack and retreated without hesitation!

In the next moment, the Blood Cloud dramatically expanded and instantly transformed into a vast Blood Sea beneath the Blood Robed Youth’s feet!

“A Domain Skill?”

Such terrifying Star Power made even the Demon Soul’s eyes narrow in caution.

As the Blood Robed Youth raised his hand, massive blood waves surged and rushed towards the retreating Demon Soul, threatening to crush him!

With a sweep of his left hand over his long blade, the Demon Soul’s weapon became engulfed in intensely roiling Black Flame.

“Flash.”

The Demon Soul adopted a drawing stance, gathered his energy, and before the blood waves could engulf him, he cut through them and shot straight up into the sky.

“Impressive strength,” the Blood Robed Youth praised, then smirked, “but it’s useless!”

With a lift of his hand, one after another, dozens of sky-reaching blood pillars emerged from the Blood Sea, converging on the Demon Soul high in the air!

Facing the overwhelming blood pillars, the Demon Soul did not try to dodge again. Instead, he resumed his drawing stance.

Uncharacteristically, the Demon Soul took a slight breath, his blood-red eyes fixed intently on the many blood pillars and the Blood Robed Youth at the center of the Blood Sea.

In that moment, countless pieces of information flashed, processed, and verified in his mind. Normally complex, everything now seemed inexplicably clear…

“What is he doing? Why isn’t he dodging?!” the robust man exclaimed.

Not just the robust man, everyone else was also nervously looking up, tense with anticipation.

They knew the Demon Soul should dodge, knowing he would be severely injured or even killed if hit by so many blood pillars, but they felt he had some plan…

Just as the three closest blood pillars were about to strike the Demon Soul, his eyes suddenly gleamed with sharp light, and his blue flames turned into a blazing purple in an instant!

“Purple Flame Burning Body!”

“Flash… Six Consecutive!”

Purple light flashed as the Demon Soul zipped through the gaps between the sky-reaching blood pillars, slicing straight towards the Blood Robed Youth’s neck within the blink of an eye!

“What the?!”

The Blood Robed Youth’s eyes showed shock and astonishment, unable to believe the Demon Soul could achieve this.

In a fleeting moment, the Demon Soul had found the optimal path and reached him with astonishing speed…

Could a normal person do this? Even Chou Wuliang couldn’t do it!

At the Blood Robed Youth’s neck, surging blood light tried to resist the Black Flame-laden blade.

But how could it be so easy? This was the Evil Fire Flash!

“Slash!”

With a low growl, the Demon Soul sliced through the Blood Robed Youth’s neck with a slight pause!

“What the hell is going on?!”

The stunning reversal and the brilliant slash left the people below dumbfounded and exclaiming aloud!

“How… how did he do it!”

“Is that Demon Cultivator dead?!”

“Should be… right?”

“But he recovered from being cut in half earlier, didn’t he?”

“This time it was his head that got severed!”

“…”

Everyone was stupified. The Demon Soul’s Six Flash Slash was now etched into each of their minds!

The key now was whether the Blood Robed Youth was truly dead or not.

After all, the Blood Robed Youth had previously recovered from being cut in half almost instantly.

Such regeneration and self-healing ability were terrifying!

However, regeneration didn’t mean invincibility. Generally speaking, there were three types of regeneration.

The first, the most basic, local regeneration, quickly repairs damaged parts but can’t regenerate lost limbs.

The second, advanced regeneration. Anything but the head, heart, and other core organs or weaknesses could rapidly regenerate.

This form was already quite powerful. The Demon Soul, for instance, had a fist-sized core Demon Core inside his body.

The third type was ultimate high-speed regeneration, with no weaknesses.

Even if the head or heart were destroyed, they could still be repaired!

Those possessing such regenerative powers were either extremely rare specialized Star Beasts,

or those who had cultivated top-tier advanced skills to perfection,

or those drawing upon the all-encompassing Power of Soul…

In any case, such individuals were extremely rare and hard to encounter.

Su Yuan happened to meet one once… the Scorpio!

That’s why the Demon Soul, having already severed the Blood Robed Youth once before, tried to cut off his head again.

Unless he had the third type of ultimate high-speed regeneration, he had to die!

Sure enough, this time the body remained still.

The Demon Soul unleashed Undead Evil Fire, and in an instant, burned both the head and the headless body to ashes.

“This time, he should really be dead… Wait!”

The Demon Soul’s eyes narrowed, his gaze falling on the Blood Sea.

The Blood Robed Youth had been reduced to ashes, but the Blood Sea showed no sign of dissipating!

Suddenly, a dazzling blood light appeared within the Blood Sea, and the entire Blood Sea began to churn violently, as if something were about to be born.

With a “splash,” an enormous Buddha Hand emerged from the Blood Sea, swiftly clawing towards the Demon Soul in mid-air.

Narrowing his eyes, the Demon Soul transformed into a purple flame and dodged swiftly.

However, in the next instant, countless blood-colored arms surged from the Blood Sea.

Compared to the previous blood pillars, these blood arms weren’t only faster but far more agile!

“Bang bang bang!…”

Numerous arms from all directions converged, smothering the Demon Soul into a ball!

And that was not all. In the churning Blood Sea, a giant Buddha statue slowly rose.

Standing a hundred feet tall with an imposing and stern appearance, it exuded a terrifying oppressive aura!

The Blood Light-formed body only added an eerie feel to the statue.

The countless Buddha Hands stemmed from this statue.

“What… what is this?! An Outer Path?!”

The people on the shore were utterly horrified by the hundred-foot-tall Buddha statue, struggling to imagine something so terrifying!

“Where’s that person? Was he crushed?”

“With so many Buddha Hands landing, there’s no way he could survive!”

“No way!…”

Panic struck everyone. If the Demon Soul was dead, how could the remaining people possibly deal with this bizarre Buddha statue…

At this moment, a blood crystal-like Blood Bodhi Seed at the Buddha statue’s chest flashed brightly. Blood Light swirling, it reformed into the Blood Robed Youth.

However, the Blood Robed Youth’s face was pale, his aura severely depleted, clearly exhausted.

“Damn it, damn it, damn it!”

Rage and shock filled the Blood Robed Youth’s eyes. He never expected to be pushed to the brink so quickly again!

If not for the Bodhi Heart Retention Technique, he really would have died just now!

The Bodhi Heart Retention Technique, a superior Buddhist secret method, not only creates several Bodhi Avatars but these avatars can perfectly replicate one’s skills.

At its Transformation Realm level, the Bodhi Heart Retention Technique is a top-level life-saving technique, capable of reserving a Blood Bodhi Seed elsewhere.

Before being completely slain, if activated, one’s Soul Body can emerge and return to the Blood Bodhi Seed, reshaping the mortal body akin to the Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell.

Previously wounded severely by Chou Wuliang, he had prepared a Blood Bodhi Seed, saving his life that time.

In just a few months, he found himself forced to use this move again!

Filled with anger, the Blood Robed Youth looked at the Demon Soul wrapped in countless Buddha Hands, his eyes brimming with killing intent.

“Today, this person must die!”

Just then, black flames began to burn inside and outside the many blood-colored Buddha Hands!

In the next instant, with a loud “boom,” a blazing Ribbon of Flames engulfed in Black Flame exploded, burning all the densely packed Buddha Hands to ashes!

It was the Flame Luo Ling, now burning with Undead Evil Fire!

Extending his hand, the Demon Soul recalled the Ribbon, shrinking it back to float around him.

“Having missed the last great battle, it’s been a long time… since I’ve met an opponent of your caliber.”

The Demon Soul locked eyes with the giant Buddha statue ahead, a blazing fervor lighting up his eyes!

“But… I couldn’t be more pleased!”
