Chapter 1280 - 1277: Encountering the Demon Eye Clan Again

Watching the gray-robed youth emerge from the noise and dust, Luo Feng’s expression was solemn.

On the surface, this person was merely a Martial Artist of the fourth tier of the Spiritual Rotation Realm, but he had long learned from Yingkui that every true awakened Demon Eye from the Demon Eye Clan had strength rivaling that of a True Yuan Realm Martial Artist.

Judging by the speed and power of the opponent’s strike just now, this person’s true battle strength was definitely not beneath Lu Xiao Yun’s, and might even far surpass it, though it was unclear what portion of his strength had actually been exerted.

What puzzled Luo Feng even more was why this Demon Eye Clan youth would appear at Qing Ling’s hiding place.

"Who are you?"

Drawing the Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, Luo Feng demanded.

The circular pattern in the gray-robed youth’s eyes flickered, his gaze a blood-red hue, as he shook his head. A sinister laugh emerged from beneath the gray robe, "I thought I might encounter two fellow clansmen here, but it turned out to be two humans. Looks like this was a wasted trip."

Talking to himself, the gray-robed youth lifted his gaze, sweeping over Luo Feng and Jiang Fengfeng, "As for my identity, the dead don’t need to know."

"Dominating for Thousands of Years!"

Since they were enemies, there was no need for politeness. Luo Feng took the initiative, channeling his True Yuan, transforming his left fist into a ball of flames, and punched the ground.

Boom!

The earth trembled violently, and a circle of seemingly tangible crimson shockwaves surged toward the gray-robed youth, shattering and fragmenting the ground in its path.

A trace of disdain appeared in the blood-red pupils, as the gray-robed youth lightly touched his foot on the crimson Qi force and soared into the air.

"Slash!"

This was the moment Luo Feng was waiting for. He cleaved down with a saber, unleashing a giant Saber Qi, tens of meters long, carving a precise trajectory through the void and appearing instantly before the gray-robed youth.

"Hmph!"

A cold snort echoed from beneath the gray robe, and the youth from the Demonic Flame Tribe covered his right hand in a layer of dense bloodlight, reaching single-handedly for the Saber Qi.

Clang!

The Saber Qi collided with the dense bloodlight, sending sparks flying, and the terrifying impact force cleared the clouds within a kilometer radius, causing gusts of wind within the valley.

Confused, the gray-robed youth was forced to retreat by the intimidating Saber Qi, a bit astonished by its terrifying power. The circular pattern in his eyes brightened slightly, and the bloodlight on his hand surged, allowing him to steady control of the Saber Qi, unable to proceed further.

"Infinite Sword Qi!"

Thwish!

At this moment, Jiang Fengfeng also made her move. A supremely sharp, crystal-clear Sword Qi appeared out of thin air behind the gray-robed youth, descending with the momentum of slicing through everything.

"Dare to launch a surprise attack!"

The gray-robed youth’s pupils contracted, reacting at the last critical moment. His body exhibited a bizarre bending motion, dodging the Sword Qi while redirecting the Saber Qi backward.

Boom!

A huge explosion ensued, shaking the heavens and earth, as Saber Gang and Sword Qi collided, with chaotic Qi Force rampant, forming a terrifying storm that instantly engulfed the gray-robed youth.

Swish!

With the sound of tearing air, the gray-robed youth shot out from the storm, a bloody gash torn across his face.

"Even this couldn’t kill him..."

Luo Feng frowned slightly. He had clearly seen that within the eye of the storm, the gray-robed youth’s body emitted a layer of blood-colored aura, mitigating much of the Qi Force’s impact, revealing that his strength was even more terrifying than imagined.

"Be careful, the power of the Demon Eye Clan cannot be measured by cultivation. His strength rivals mine."

Standing twenty steps away, Jiang Fengfeng rarely looked solemnly, transmitting to Luo Feng.

Luo Feng nodded slightly, understanding that coming from the proud Jiang Fengfeng, this statement revealed the opponent’s extraordinary strength.

And then, a more bizarre scene unfolded, as the wound on the gray-robed youth’s face was covered in a layer of bloodlight, rapidly healing at a visible speed.

"Such astonishing recovery!" Luo Feng’s gaze darkened.

"Jie jie, very good!"

The gray-robed youth extended his tongue to lick the blood from his wound, his blood-red gaze looming over Luo Feng and Jiang Fengfeng from above as a grim voice sounded:

"It’s been a long time since I’ve tasted my own blood. You two, able to harm me, must be the top young generation of this Canglang Dynasty; your blood must be incredibly nourishing! I hope you won’t disappoint me."

Swish!

Before his words finished, the gray-robed youth’s eyes flashed with scarlet light, instantly appearing in front of Luo Feng, his right hand exuding a ghastly blood aura, reaching for Luo Feng’s head.

"Die!"

His thoughts were simple: teaming up, Luo Feng and Jiang Fengfeng were too dangerous, so the lower cultivated Luo Feng had to be killed first. A mere True Yuan Realm third-tier Martial Artist couldn’t withstand even one move from him; one move would suffice to kill him.

"Luo Feng!"

Jiang Fengfeng, shocked by the opponent’s terrifying speed, exclaimed.

Rip!

The air was torn apart, shattering Luo Feng’s body and a large area of trees behind him into fragments, leaving three ferocious claw marks on the ground.

"Gone?" The gray-robed youth’s eyes shifted slightly, somewhat surprised.

Every move of the gray-robed youth was within Luo Feng’s grasp; the shattered form was merely an afterimage, while the true body emerged in mid-air, eyes gleaming with sharpness, as he merged the saber with the grand momentum and cleaved down.

"Summer Thunder Falling from the Sky Saber!"

Boom!

Blazing electric flashes burst, and a shimmering Saber Gang descended from the sky with oppressive force.

The Summer Thunder Falling from the Sky Saber, merged with the grand momentum, possessed an unimaginable domineering power. The ground cracked under its pressure even before the Saber Gang arrived.

The gray-robed youth reacted swiftly, the circular pattern in his pupils brighter than ever. His hands blocked the Saber Gang from both sides in an instant.

As this saber was too domineering and fierce, although the gray-robed youth blocked the Saber Gang, the tremendous power contained within it forced him to retreat violently. His feet carved a deep trench in the ground, stopping only at the edge of a lake hundreds of meters away.

Rumble!

Ultimately, the gray-robed youth shifted his body, and the saber light grazed past him, slashing into the lake, erupting in a giant water column that blotted out the sky. Many giant fish in the lake were blasted to pieces, and a rain of blood fell from the sky.

"You brat, once I catch you, I will tear off your limbs and drain your blood dry!"

The gray-robed youth’s clothes were torn in many places, looking extremely ragged, his words eerie and terrifying, as he directed his gaze toward where Luo Feng was.

However, there was no one there. Sensing something, the gray-robed youth immediately raised his head to look at the sky.

Swish!

A figure descended from the sky; it was Luo Feng.

"Step of Sky-Burning Monarch!"

After two encounters, Luo Feng recognized the opponent as a formidable rival. Giving no respite, he pushed the Cloud Dragon Transformation to the extreme. His body resonated with faint dragon roars, engulfed in radiant golden flames, dazzling and resplendent. With a simple step, carrying the momentum to destroy the heavens and the earth, he stepped down toward the gray-robed youth.

"Perish!"

Being suppressed by a human peer made the gray-robed youth furious inside. Finally unleashing his true strength, his pupils contracted, the circular pattern within his eyes burst forth with a surge of bloodlight, projected into the void behind him. His body soared with dense blood energy, and he punched skyward.

Rumble!

Thunderous explosions resounded, shaking the earth and mountains.

As bloodlight and golden flames collided, the entire space seemed to tremble. The impact from their confrontation directly shaved away a layer of the ground within a kilometer radius, sinking it by over ten meters, turning everything within range into ruins, leaving not a trace!
