Luo Tian knew exactly what was happening outside.
He was also feeling incredibly anxious.
However, he could not move yet, nor could he afford any distractions.
Compared to the danger the Saintess was facing, the risk he was taking was dozens of times greater.
There were even a few moments when Luo Tian felt as if he could see the Grim Reaper raising his scythe.
If he hadnât endured with sheer willpower, he truly would have died.
Awakening a bloodline was painful.
Upgrading oneâs physical body was painful.
Combining the two was even more excruciating. It was beyond what a normal human should be able to endure.
Fortunately, Luo Tian already possessed a level three physical body. Otherwise, he would have met the King of Hell long ago.
âJust a little more.â
âYou need to hold on.â
âLuo Tian, you must hold on, or everything will be for nothing.â Illusion Fairy constantly encouraged him. She could clearly feel the agony he was in and knew that such pain was unbearable for ordinary people.
However, she knew even better that Luo Tian desperately needed to become stronger.
His physical body and his cultivation both had to get stronger. Otherwise, when he returns to Misty Cloud Academy, the person he would have to face might be the Crown Prince of the Hai family.
He was currently no match for a powerhouse in the Honorable Emperor realm!
The only thing Illusion Fairy could do was help him improve his physical body as quickly as possible. The Dragon Transformation of the Dragon God Forbidden Technique would surely be able to withstand an attack from an Honorable Emperor and allow him to stand firmly.
Therefore, Illusion Fairy did not stop Luo Tian this time.
Luo Tian truly needed to become stronger!
âBang~!â
âBoom~!â
The Saintess was smashed flying once again.
Her body slid dozens of meters away, her white dress now covered in mud. Her arms trembled slightly, and she could barely hold onto her white sword.
She turned her head once more to glance at Luo Tian, her expression darkening. She then clenched her teeth before charging forward to attack yet again.
Liu Zhan was on the verge of losing it. If he werenât afraid of interfering with Luo Tianâs bloodline awakening, he would have jumped up and started cursing immediately. Seeing a beauty being ravaged felt like a knife to his heart.
However, protecting his boss was the priority.
The more critical the moment, the more he had to remain calm.
There were several demonic pigs nearby. If he left his post, they would surely seize the opportunity to attack.
Liu Zhan paced back and forth anxiously, muttering to himself, âBoss, hurry it up! Little Sister Saintess is about to reach her limit. You canât just stand by and watch her die. I donât think I can keep watching anymore.â
The Seven-Colored Divine Bow in his hand was humming continuously.
The Bow and Arrow bloodline within his body resonated as if it were eager for battle.
âItâs useless!â
âYou still donât get it?â
âI am invincible!â
âNo one can kill me, not even the Saintess of Phoenix Sky Mountain! Hahaha⊠the Phoenix bloodline is a complete waste on you! Come, give it to me, and I will unleash its full potential,â the Blood Spring said arrogantly.
Its voice drew nearer and nearer.
Liu Zhanâs sea of consciousness began to churn.
He felt extremely uncomfortable, let alone the Saintess, who had been fighting at close range this entire time.
âBang, bang, bang~âŠâ
The Saintess was smashed flying back.
âPuff~!â
She spat out another large mouthful of blood. This time, she didnât look at Luo Tian. She just charged forward again, filled with an extraordinary rage.
She had undergone countless trials on Phoenix Sky Mountain, yet she had never been in such a pathetic state as this.
Who was she?
She was the woman destined to reach the Realm of Gods.
She was the Saintess of Sky Mountain!
If it werenât for the search for her sisterâs whereabouts, she never would have left Phoenix Sky Mountain.
Her life had only one goal: to become a god!
How could she possibly fall in a place like this?
The Saintess had consumed a massive amount of yuan energy, and the energy in her dantian was nearly exhausted. However, the power she unleashed became even more terrifying. Her sword techniques reached a state of flawless perfection, dealing over a million damage in a single burst.
This kind of damage was something even a powerhouse in the Holy Spirit realm could not withstand.
Myriad Illusion realm rankers were existences capable of instantly killing their opponents.
But if she couldnât achieve a one-shot instant kill, it wouldnât matter if her damage reached 9,999,999 points. As long as the Blood Spring was given half a second, it would automatically recover.
Suddenly, the Blood Springâs voice turned cold as it said, âAlright, Iâm done playing with you. You are exhausted, so it is time to refine you.â
As soon as the voice faded, the surrounding blood mist began to spin quickly.
It swirled frantically around the Saintessâs body.
The Saintess thrust her sword forth.
âOmmm~!â
âClang~!â
The white sword was knocked right out of her hand from the shock!
The impact tore the webbing between her thumb and forefinger.
The Saintessâs expression changed. She then clamped two fingers together and used them as a sword to strike once more.
âOmmm~!â
The blood mist remained unchanged, spinning toward her like a cage rapidly contracting.
Liu Zhan was feeling extremely anxious. He glanced at Luo Tian and muttered, âBoss, hurry it up!â
At that exact moment, Luo Tian sent a voice transmission to Liu Zhan, âGo help her!â
Without a second thought, Liu Zhan took a step forward. His fingers moved across the Seven-Colored Divine Bow, firing five arrows.
âSuper Freezing Technique!â
âSwoosh, swoosh, swoosh~âŠâ
The arrows exploded against the blood mist, forming a thin layer of frost that slightly slowed the speed of the contraction.
The Blood Spring was extremely pissed off. An eyeball of the spring shifted, staring directly at Liu Zhan before letting out a shout, âGet the hell away from me!â
Suddenly, a massive wall of evil power surged forward like a crushing wave.
It sent Liu Zhan flying dozens of meters away.
Fatty Liu spat out blood, his face turning pale. His sea of consciousness churned and his head felt as if it were splitting open. This kind of pain was worse than death!
However, Fatty Liu scrambled back to his feet and yelled again, âBullying a woman?! What kind of thing are you?! Oh, I forgot, you arenât even a thing at all!â
After shouting that, he fired another five arrows.
They were still infused with a freezing property, turning the blood mist back into blood frost and slowing its contraction.
At that moment, in the center of the vortex, the Saintessâs body had begun to go numb, and her consciousness was growing hazy. She felt a deep urge to sleep. It was an overwhelming drowsiness where she could fall asleep even while standing. Yet, she kept urging herself not to sleep.
The Phoenix bloodline within her was the same, becoming lethargic and losing all its spirit.
Danger!
Extreme danger!
The Blood Spring had already sensed the Phoenix bloodline within her.
Seeing the blood mist vortex frozen once more, the Blood Spring flew into a rage. The spring itself looked ready to erupt as an even more powerful evil force burst forth, condensing into a skeleton soldier made of pure evil energy.
It was wielding a steel blade, slashing down directly at Liu Zhan.
Liu Zhan wanted to kite the enemy, but the evil skeleton soldier had no physical form. It existed only as a phantom, so his arrows were completely useless.
However, the moment the blade chopped down, he managed to fire off three freezing arrows before screaming, âBoss!â
He couldnât hold on any longer!
The Saintess couldnât hold on either.
Both of their lives were hanging by a thread.
Hearing Liu Zhanâs shout, Luo Tianâs eyes snapped open. He let out a low, heavy shout, âDivine Explosion!â
âOmmm~!â
âBoom~!â
The attributes of his body suddenly doubled.
âScreee~!â
A surge of energy erupted from him as the Vermilion Bird soared up and screeched.
Also at that exact moment, Luo Tianâs body felt light as power flooded into him like a dam breaking. He then clenched his fists.
âBoom~!â
âBoom~!â
Two sonic booms echoed to his left and right.
His physical body had leveled up to level four!
Immediately after, Luo Tian pushed off his back foot and transformed into afterimages, appearing beside Fatty Liu. Facing the massive evil skeleton soldier, Luo Tian struck out with his right fist.
âCrack~!â
Cracks appeared in the surrounding space of his fist, and the evil skeleton soldier was instantly reduced to dust.
Liu Zhan shouted, âBoss, hurry and save Big Sister Saintess! Sheâs not going to make it!â
Before he could say anything more, Luo Tian had already vanished.
Liu Zhan clicked his tongue in disbelief, âItâs only been a few minutes yet how did his strength increase so much?â
The Blood Spring shook a bit before saying with disdain, âThe Four Divine Beasts bloodline truly doesnât disappoint. To think you could pulverize my evil skeleton soldier with your bare fists. Even the powerhouses of the Four Divine Beast families rarely possess such formidable pure strength. You are indeed remarkable. However, no matter how capable you are, today you are all my food. Your cultivation, bloodlines, and yuan energy will all be mine.â
âBlood Demon Art, suck them dry!â
Blood Spring had unleashed its ultimate move.
The pervasive evil force transformed into a sky full of blood mist, spinning like crazy until it enveloped the entire forest.
Wherever the blood mist reached, trees withered instantly and turned to powder.
The pig demons fled in a frenzy, but those who even slightly brushed against the mist were reduced to dust.
The sky, the earth, and everything in the vicinity were rapidly disappearing.
The Blood Springâs power was unimaginably strong.
Elsewhere, Luo Tian sensed the Saintessâs presence and found her extremely weak. She had fallen unconscious with a weak breathing status. He clenched his teeth and shouted, âBlood Spring, fuck all eighteen generations of your ancestors! Go to hell for me!â
âVermilion Bird power!â
âCome out for me!â
âScreech~!â
The awakened Vermilion Bird flew out of Luo Tianâs body like a living creature, circling above him and emitting an intense burning force.
At that same time, Luo Tian pulled out the Phoenix Bloodshed Bracelet.
âPhoenix Bloodshed BraceletâŠâ
âVermilion Bird powerâŠâ
The Blood Springâs voice trembled with terror, âWho are you?! Who exactly are you?! How could you have these two items?! Impossible, absolutely impossible! Who are you?! What is your connection to the Ancient King?!â
Luo Tian smiled coldly and replied, âNow youâre scared? Go to hell for me.â
With a thought, the Vermilion Bird let out a sharp cry and dove into the Phoenix Bloodshed Bracelet. The bracelet erupted in a crimson glow, releasing a burning power that seemed inexhaustible.
Luo Tian then shouted, âBurn! Burn every trace of evil here!â
âNoâŠâ
âNo⊠donât!â
The Blood Spring let out a fearful scream.
A winged fire dragon erupted and swept through the space, instantly devouring the surrounding evil energy.
The Blood Spring struggled desperately, but it was completely futile.
Its ten million health points bottomed out in an instant!
Instant kill!
At this moment, the system gave off an alert.
Luo Tian chanted excitedly, âExplode, explode, give me a big explosion!â
