Immortal Martial Emperor

The Divine Demon Wings trembled abruptly.

Strange, blood-colored Runes flowed across the six black Divine Demon Wings. The blood-red Runes moved like veins, coursing over their surface.

The Divine Demon Wings were composed of feathers that looked as if they were forged from dark steel.

Each of these feathers resembled a Long Saber.

They were sharp and emitted a strange, heart-trembling fluctuation.

Empowered by the flow of blood-colored Runes, this fluctuation intensified. The very air was stirred by the faint vibrations, thrown into chaos.

These were the Divine Demon Wings!

SWISH!

Hong Yu’s speed was incredible as he shot forward, appearing right in front of Blood Wen.

Blood Wen’s Ghost-faced Yama Fist was incredibly fierce and vicious. The punch carried an extremely intense wave of the Power of Resentment, making it difficult to keep one’s Heart Spirit stable.

A cool stream flowed from the Star River Spirit Bone, allowing Hong Yu to remain constantly clear-headed and calm.

A blue light flashed in his left eye, and his Pupil Technique: Sky-covering shot out.

At this moment, Hong Yu’s Spiritual Power had solidly reached the Peak of the Primordial Embryo Realm, nearly the same Level as Blood Wen. Therefore, his Pupil Technique: Sky-covering had a corresponding effect.

As the blue light shot out, Blood Wen’s mind went blank for nearly two seconds.

Seizing this fleeting opportunity, the Divine Demon Wings behind Hong Yu suddenly struck. The six wings, paired off, formed three sets that swung forward.

One from the left, one from the right, they were like six giant palms.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Under the assault of the Divine Demon Wings, the arm executing the Ghost-faced Yama Fist was slapped down again and again, causing Blood Wen to stagger.

Just then, Blood Wen regained his senses.

Humiliated and enraged, he roared, "Damn you, kid! I’ll tear you to pieces!"

The Ghost-faced Yama Fist changed direction and charged forward again.

This punch was powerful enough to shatter a mountain range.

The magnificent fist-light shot out for over thirty meters, its afterimages numerous and overlapping. It was so powerful it seemed almost impossible to resist.

Hong Yu snorted coldly. "Divine Demon Wings—Shelter!"

The Divine Demon Wings moved abruptly.

Vibrating with specks of dark light, they enveloped Hong Yu completely. At the same time, Blood Wen’s punch landed.

BOOM!

The violent Vibrating Power made the qi and blood in Hong Yu’s body churn, and a trace of blood trickled from his lips.

His body shot backward like a cannonball, slamming heavily onto the ground.

Terrifying streams of the Power of Resentment transformed into black flames that clung to the Divine Demon Wings, burning continuously in an attempt to reduce both the wings and Hong Yu to ash.

"Be extinguished!"

Hong Yu took a deep breath.

With his low roar, a bloody light coursed through the wings. The Divine Demon Wings’ Sea of All Rivers-like ability to merge and devour activated on its own, completely consuming the burning black flames of resentment.

"What? It devoured the flames of resentment?" Blood Wen’s eyes glinted with greed. ’This kid has a lot of treasures. Those three pairs of wings must be some kind of Secret Technique. Heh heh, if I could get my hands on it, wouldn’t my power soar?’

Of the three moves they had agreed upon, one had now passed.

For the second move, Blood Wen’s expression turned much more solemn. He took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a bloody light. "Since you can withstand my Ghost-faced Yama Fist, you really do have some skill, kid. In that case, you’re worthy of me using this move!"

"This move is called ’Fengdu’s Fury.’ You’d better be ready!"

Blood Wen took a deep breath.

Streams of bright red Primordial Gang suddenly surged from his body, silently coalescing behind him into a powerful Mystical Illusion.

This was the Mystical Illusion formed from the Mysteries of Martial Arts that Blood Wen had comprehended.

An extremely powerful Blood God!

And...

This was not a Blood Demon Venerable or a Celestial Blood Demon God. This was a true Blood-colored War God!

Its bright red armor was covered in countless scars, stained with a crimson so vivid it looked as if it could drip fresh blood at any moment.

In its hand, it gripped a Long Saber.

The blade was a full thirty meters long.

A single slash from this saber could likely wipe out an elite army of ten thousand.

As Blood Wen raised his hands high, the Blood-colored War God also tightened its grip on the Long Saber, slowly lifting it and aiming to bring it crashing down on Hong Yu.

’The Fengdu Battle Ghost, the most powerful War God in the legendary City of Death.’

Hong Yu pondered, his thoughts racing in a flash.

’What is the Fengdu Battle Ghost?’

’It’s the War God from the legendary City of Death, Fengdu, responsible for suppressing hordes of Demons. A true, world-shaking Demon God!’

’Even if it’s just a Mystical Illusion, its power is still undeniable.’

"Fengdu’s Fury!"

Blood Wen bellowed.

A thick, bloody light surged through his arms, filling his veins until they bulged. The muscles in his arms writhed like coiling dragons as nearly terrifying power was transferred into the Big Saber.

On the arms of the Fengdu Battle Ghost’s illusion, a blood-red light also erupted.

It felt as if clumps of bloody flames were burning while powerful, fiery red dragons coiled and weaved around the Fengdu Battle Ghost’s arms.

Boundless strength swung the Long Saber.

The sharp edge of the Long Saber instantly sliced through the air, stirring up countless air vortexes that constantly collided and compressed, roiling the heavens.

It carried powerful air currents, like streams of cyan silk, mingled with the blood-red saber light as it slashed down.

How terrifying was such an attack?

It was enough to split the earth!

It could nearly shatter the void!

The blade hadn’t even arrived, yet Hong Yu already felt immense pressure. He struggled to support himself, his legs already trembling violently.

If his Divine Demon Wings hadn’t suddenly propped him up from the ground to stabilize his body, he likely would have collapsed to his knees, his legs giving out under the immense pressure.

His long hair whipped wildly in the wind, and the muscles on his face were distorted by the gale.

Only his eyes, blooming with a sublimated, keen blue light, could still perceive every subtle change. The Star River Spirit Bone kept his mind at its sharpest, allowing him to analyze the battle and strategize.

BOOM!

The saber light drew closer, and the pressure grew even more terrifying.

The ground beneath Hong Yu’s feet suddenly trembled.

The very earth where he stood was forced to cave in.

This depression seemed to spread as if it were contagious.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The ground cracked and ruptured as the entire landscape began to sink, spreading out in a circle from Hong Yu’s position.

Under the crushing pressure of the blade, the area where Hong Yu stood had already dropped a full thirty meters lower than the surrounding edge of the affected zone.

This meant the land under Hong Yu’s feet had been forcibly pressed down by over thirty meters under the immense Momentum.

A layer of blood-red light appeared all over Hong Yu’s body.

He clenched his jaw, watching as bright red beads of blood seeped from his skin, nearly covering his entire body.

Staring at the blood-red blade, now right before him, Hong Yu tried to use Electric Flash, but discovered to his dismay that the force was too terrifying and was interfering with the faint Power of Space Transfer he commanded.

In the current situation...

He could only endure it head-on!

Or...

Fight back with all his might!

"Hahaha, Hong Yu, this time you have no chance of survival!" Blood Wen roared viciously.

Hong Yu’s eyes snapped open, and he lifted his chin to look at him.

At that moment, Hong Yu’s gaze was like a torch. It was as if two bright flames were burning in his eyes, radiating not just an Insightful sharpness, but something that pierced the very essence of the physical world to see into a person’s heart.

HISS!

Blood Wen sucked in a sharp breath, shocked to his core. ’What kind of gaze is that?’

’I’ve fought countless experts.’

’I’ve even battled powerful Spirit Cultivators, but I have never encountered such a sinister gaze. It feels as if I have no secrets before it.’

This only strengthened Blood Wen’s resolve to kill him. ’This boy must be killed. Otherwise, if he’s allowed to mature, he will become a nightmare for my Blood Demon Palace.’

A vicious look appeared in his eyes. Blood Wen no longer hesitated and forced his arms down hard.

BANG!

The sudden increase in immense force made Hong Yu’s legs give out, and he fell to one knee.

His teeth were GRINDING, and he nearly shattered them.

Facing this mortal danger, Hong Yu was surprisingly calm. ’With my current strength, I’m no match for Blood Wen. Unless I can fully merge my True Martial Arts Intent and advance to the Primordial Embryo Realm, I can’t defeat him even with all my tricks. However...’

Hong Yu’s eyes flickered with a determined light, and even a hint of unprecedented ruthlessness.

’It seems...’

’I have no choice but to risk it all!’

Taking a deep breath, Hong Yu felt that the energy he had been cultivating for so long had finally accumulated enough.

And at this very moment...

With a thought, he commanded, "Xingtian, now!"

At the same time!

The illusion of a Devouring Demon Tree suddenly surged up behind Xingtian, who had been hovering quietly in the void. As the Devouring Demon Tree appeared, Xingtian’s figure shot forward.

Blood Wen naturally sensed it and sneered, "Get lost!"

The Fengdu Battle Ghost surged with bloody light and swung.

However...

The bloody light was swallowed whole by Xingtian. His body charged toward Blood Wen as if there were nothing in its way.

Spreading its arms, it wrapped them tightly around Blood Wen.

The huge canopy of the Devouring Demon Tree shook wildly, constantly devouring the power from Blood Wen’s body.

"Damn it, what the hell is this thing?" Blood Wen hadn’t paid it much mind at first, but when he felt the Power of Resentment being frantically devoured by Xingtian, he finally became furious.

"Get off me! Get off!"

He repeatedly struck and battered Xingtian, but Xingtian didn’t budge an inch, merely continuing its frenzied devouring.

Blood Wen’s eyes were practically popping from their sockets. This sudden attack had caught him completely off guard.

As a result, the saber that was about to strike Hong Yu’s head paused for a moment.

It was precisely this fleeting pause that gave Hong Yu a chance at survival.

"Divine Demon Wings—Flowing Light!"

A red light flashed on the Divine Demon Wings. With a leap, Hong Yu shot away with a SWISH.

Cyan Dragon Scales surged over his arms, and the sharp Heaven-Ripping Claw shot out.

At the same time...

The Fengdu Battle Ghost’s attack finally landed on the ground.

RUMBLE!

The earth roared, cracked, and exploded. The terrifying slash cleaved the ground in two. It was a Heaven-Shattering, Earth-Splitting strike, and the land thundered.

Mountains, rivers, earth, forests...

Everything in the blade’s path was instantly turned to dust and vanished.

A terrifying, violent storm swept across the sky.

It kicked up a cloud of dust and debris, obscuring the situation at the center of the battle.

And just as everyone was watching with bated breath, a sudden scream rang out. Along with a flash of bright red, bloody light, a severed arm fell from the dust cloud.

And following it, was...
