Chapter 529 Mere Qi Condensation Stage!
Red Lotus snorted angrily, spread her limbs, and unleashed extremely powerful flames from her body, burning the fine net.
The old man smiled confidently, withdrew his right hand, and quietly watched Red Lotus in the net.
The flames emanating from Red Lotus were extremely hot, enough to burn everything.
Yet strangely, they had no effect on this fine net!
Red Lotus struggled desperately, but the fine net was slowly tightening.
Gradually, Red Lotus’s limbs became immobile, completely entangled by the fine net.
Red Lotus made angry grunting sounds from her throat, her face full of unwillingness.
At this critical moment, the fear in her heart had actually disappeared.
She was just unwilling, unwilling to die like this!
She still wanted to avenge her mother, she still wanted to avenge the many spiritual beasts of the Phoenix tribe!
Unfortunately, there was no chance now.
The fine net entangled Red Lotus, slowly bringing her before the old man.
“Compared to your mother, you were much easier to capture,” the old man said.
Hearing the words “mother,” Red Lotus once again struggled angrily, bursts of terrifying aura exploding from her body.
“I will definitely kill you! I will definitely kill you!” Red Lotus glared at the old man in front of her and roared.
“In the underworld, you might indeed have a chance to kill me, but I won’t be going down there anytime soon.” The old man stroked the beard on his chin and smiled, “After consuming your essence, I can extend my lifespan by a hundred years.”
“Old man, how old are you this year?” At this moment, a voice reached the old man’s ears.
The old man immediately turned around and saw Fang Yu in front of him.
When did he appear by my side?
The old man frowned slightly, looked at Fang Yu, and asked, “Who are you?”
“My name is Fang Yu,” Fang Yu answered truthfully.
“Fang Yu?” The old man’s brows furrowed.
Having lived in seclusion in the mountains for years, he rarely had contact with today’s martial arts world and had never heard of Fang Yu’s name.
However, who Fang Yu was didn’t matter.
“Young man, I can tell you my age,” the old man always had a faint smile on his face, but his tone suddenly turned cold, “But after you know, I’ll have to make you disappear from this world.”
Fang Yu wasn’t concerned about such threats.
“This year marks my 872nd year,” the old man said slowly. “Perhaps when your ancestors weren’t even born, I had already been cultivating in this world for hundreds of years.”
Seeing the slight arrogance on the old man’s face, Fang Yu frowned and said, “You think living a long time is something to be proud of?”
The old man raised his eyebrows and said, “Of course. Throughout history, countless cultivators have desperately cultivated to improve their cultivation, even wanting to ascend to immortality. What they strive for is essentially immortality.”
“And I, although I cannot ascend, can enjoy a lifespan much longer than the vast majority of people in this world. That is my advantage.”
As he spoke, the old man turned to look at Red Lotus, squinting with a smile, “These spiritual beasts exist for people like me. Their essence can provide me with a large amount of lifespan. At the same time, it can make my cultivation progress rapidly.”
“Fine, your reasoning is sound,” Fang Yu said, “However, I still have many things I don’t understand, and you can’t take Little Red away.”
Little Red?
Hearing this nickname, Red Lotus looked at Fang Yu.
“Hehe, I’ve said so much, yet you still can’t comprehend the gap between you and me,” the old man shook his head and said, “You, merely at the Qi Condensation stage, compared to me who has lived for 872 years…”
“Bang!”
While the old man was still speaking, Fang Yu’s fist struck out.
Due to the incredible speed, the old man’s consciousness could react, but his body couldn’t defend in time.
With a muffled sound, the old man was sent flying.
Fang Yu looked at Red Lotus floating in front of him, reached out his hand, grabbed the fine net restraining Red Lotus, and was about to tear it open forcefully.
At this moment, a purple lightning bolt descended from the sky.
The power of this purple lightning was like a mountain hundreds of meters high crashing down, instantly smashing Fang Yu straight to the ground.
“Boom!”
Fang Yu fell to the ground, creating a loud noise.
“Merely at the Qi Condensation stage, yet possessing such powerful strength?” The old man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at Fang Yu on the ground with cold eyes.
Even when fighting against those powerful beings of the Phoenix tribe before, he had never bled!
But today, this Qi Condensation cultivator, who was like an ant in his eyes, had caused him no small injury!
For someone as proud as him, this was intolerable.
“Kill!”
The old man extended his right hand and drew a character in the void.
The ‘kill’ character formed by red light flew rapidly toward Fang Yu.
In this process, the ‘kill’ character quickly expanded, and by the time it reached Fang Yu, it had transformed into a sharp red light sword, emanating a killing intent.
Fang Yu stood up, and the tip of the sword was right in front of his left chest.
Seeing this scene, Red Lotus closed her eyes.
The Five Character Technique mastered by this Source Devourer was extremely powerful.
Among them, the ‘Kill’ technique was the deadliest strike of the Five Character Technique.
Her mother had died under the ‘Kill’ technique back then.
“Clang!”
The tip of the sword did not touch Fang Yu’s chest but was caught by Fang Yu’s hand grabbing the blade.
“Hmm?” The old man frowned, his right index finger lifting forward.
The power of the sword erupted violently.
“Boom!”
The sword pushed forward half an inch, and the ground beneath Fang Yu’s feet exploded.
The old man in mid-air frowned even more, his index finger moving again.
The power of the sword increased once more!
The ground could not withstand this pressure, and rocks flew in all directions.
“The force is good, but still far from enough.”
Fang Yu grabbed the sword and twisted it outward forcefully.
The force controlling the sword was instantly broken!
The old man pulled his right hand back, his fingers trembling, waves of intense pain coming through.
The ‘Kill’ technique was broken!?
The old man’s gaze toward Fang Yu was no longer confident but filled with surprise.
This young man before him was definitely not just a Qi Condensation cultivator!
His physical strength had far exceeded the realm of Qi Condensation!
Just as the old man was shocked, Fang Yu grabbed the sword and threw it forcefully toward the old man’s position!
“Whoosh!”
The sword cut through the air, whistling past.
The sharp blade thrust straight toward the old man!
“Mirror Flower Water Moon.”
The old man remained calm, pushing both hands forward.
A mirror-like water surface appeared in front of him.
The sword quickly entered it, like a stone into water, making a slight sound before disappearing.
The old man released his hands, and the mirror also disappeared.
He looked at Fang Yu on the ground again, his gaze solemn, no longer casual as before.
Fang Yu’s strength was clearly not as weak as his appearance suggested.
Fang Yu looked at the old man, with some disappointment in his eyes.
If this was the strength of a Source Devourer, it wasn’t enough to interest him much.
Might as well finish him off quickly.
Fang Yu was about to move.
At this moment, an aura enveloping heaven and earth suddenly pressed down from the gray-white sky!
“This place is the sacred ground where myriad spirits are buried, and no living being is allowed to defile it!”
“If you want to fight, go elsewhere!”
A deep and authoritative voice came from the sky.
Then, behind Fang Yu and behind the old man, black holes appeared.
As the black holes expanded, they were accompanied by a tremendous suction force.
The will of this world was forcibly sending Fang Yu and the old man away from this place!
The old man’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he extended his right hand toward Red Lotus in the distance, who was still bound by the ‘Bind’ technique.
Red Lotus quickly flew toward the old man’s direction.
Fang Yu turned his head to look at the expanding black hole behind him, pushing against the suction force to move outward.
But the suction of the black hole was extremely strong. Although Fang Yu could withstand it, the ground and the void could not!
The ground beneath his feet continued to collapse, the void distorted, making it impossible to leave the ground and fly.
The old man’s lips curled into a mocking smile, saying, “I remember your name, Fang Yu. I will find you soon, prepare for the day of your death.”
As he spoke, half of the old man’s body had already been sucked into the black hole.
But his right hand was still extended, and Red Lotus was rapidly approaching, about to be grabbed by his right hand.
“Fine.”
Fang Yu took out the broken Heavenly Dao Sword from his storage bag and slashed fiercely toward the sky!
A crescent-shaped sword energy containing the power of the Heavenly Dao broke through the spatial constraints and quickly sliced toward mid-air.
Just as the old man’s hand was about to grab Red Lotus, the sword energy sliced across the old man’s right arm.
“Ah!”
With a scream from the old man, his entire right arm was disabled.
Then, his whole body was sucked into the black hole, his scream abruptly stopping, and the black hole disappeared.
