Becoming a Saint by Touching Corpses - Chapter 554 - 531: Red Hero Returns
Chapter 554: Chapter 531: Red Hero Returns
The spectators were all plunged into extreme shock.
Some cultivators even rubbed their eyes, as if unable to believe the scene they were witnessing.
A few Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators who had just failed to break through and were lying on the ground spitting blood were dumbfounded, temporarily forgetting their pain, staring blankly in the direction where the Conical Hat Man appeared.
’Who is this person?’
Almost everyone had this thought flash through their minds.
The Conical Hat Man was simply too astonishing.
Just a single spit forced the werewolf, who had been slaughtering everyone, to retreat desperately, seemingly… a bit flustered?
Everyone was guessing the identity of this mysterious Conical Hat Man.
Among them, the most shocked were a few Great Cultivators from the Red Sun Sect.
“Is it him, the one who injured Senior Brother Gao?” A trace of astonishment flashed in Wang Enning’s phoenix eyes.
Earlier, she still wanted to avenge her senior brother, but now it seems she was being overconfident.
“It’s the high-level expert who saved me in the teahouse, and everyone seems to speculate he’s the Red Hero!” Seeing Elder Wen being saved by the expert who also saved him, Shen Yuhao was both surprised and delighted.
On the outskirts of the Demon Clan’s encirclement, the disciples from the Corpse-Driving Sect were watching the battle scenes inside through the Water Mirror Technique, each of them with their mouths wide open in amazement.
“Is he really the Red Hero?” Bi Yaoyao wondered, excited yet questioning.
At the same time, it was the question everyone present wanted to know.
“Are you really the Red Hero?”
Lying on the ground, severely injured, Jin Tingfeng’s emotions were incredibly complex.
His gaze was fixed on the Conical Hat Man, as if piercing through the hat to see his true face.
And just now, the werewolf Chi Le Feng, who was forced back by the Conical Hat Man, looked at his right claw, his brow twitching.
His once extremely hard silver claw, stronger than any top-grade spiritual artifact, had its palm corroded into pits.
In some places, white smoke was still sizzling, bringing bursts of piercing pain that suddenly made his expression turn gloomy.
“No matter who you are, you must die today!” Chi Le Feng was furious.
Since he became a Demon General, he had never suffered such a loss.
“I hope your strength is as tough as your mouth.” The Conical Hat Man said casually.
“Die!”
The werewolf Chi Le Feng moved, disappearing from where he stood, making a winding S-shaped arc.
It seemed he learned from his previous lesson, avoiding the possibility of being spat on again.
In just a breath, he dashed to the Conical Hat Man.
This time, the Conical Hat Man didn’t spit but raised his fist, seemingly preparing for a head-on clash.
“Seeking death?”
A ferocious gleam flickered in Chi Le Feng’s eyes, a sneer hung on his lips.
Is this man insane, wanting to compete in physical strength with one of the strongest among the Howling Moon Sky Wolves?
“This is bad, how did he let the Wolf Demon get so close!”
The cultivators of the Human Race were all shocked.
Jin Tingfeng, the prodigy of the True Blood Sect’s Body Cultivator lineage, had unmatched close combat strength among the four sects’ cultivators, yet he was still brutally beaten by the Wolf Demon, with no hope of winning.
Indeed, the royal bloodline of the Demon Clan was too powerful.
The Human Race inherently has a significant disadvantage.
Under the worried eyes of everyone.
The Wolf Demon’s claws, imbued with silver demonic power, collided with the Conical Hat Man’s fist, wrapped in red light.
’Boom!’
It was as if two mountains fiercely collided, the sound was deafening and earth-shattering.
A visible whirlpool-like shockwave spread from the point of contact in all directions.
Anything in its path, be it grass, stones, beasts, or birds, was pulverized into dust, merging with the heavens and earth.
On the vast ground, deep and unfathomable cracks appeared…
The transparent red light and the eerie silver glow were locked in a stalemate, seemingly at an impasse.
But this situation only lasted for about a breath, the face of the werewolf changed.
’Bang!’
He couldn’t help but retreat a step, stomping a deep pit into the ground.
Then he was pushed back hundreds of yards, crashing through over a dozen towering trees before barely stabilizing himself.
In this pure primal power confrontation, he was clearly at a disadvantage!
At this moment, both the Human Race and the Demon Clan were utterly silent, stunned as they watched this unfold.
One of the strongest bloodlines of the Cyan Wolf Ridge, the Howling Moon Sky Wolf, renowned for physical prowess throughout the Cultivation Realm, wasn’t a match for a Human Race individual?
The cultivators trapped in the Demon Clan’s encirclement looked at the combatants with hopeful eyes. If the Conical Hat Man could win…
On the field, the werewolf Chi Le Feng remained expressionless, seemingly unbothered by his recent setback.
“Indeed, you’re impressive, far more powerful than those previous weaklings.” Then, a cold smile appeared at the corner of the werewolf’s mouth, “But do you know, I only used fifty percent of my strength just now?”
“You only used fifty percent of your strength?” The Conical Hat Man said in surprise.
But the next sentence made the werewolf’s smile freeze on his face.
“Luckily, I only used twenty percent.”
“What arrogance!” The werewolf roared in anger, “I will pull out your teeth one by one, let’s see if you can still be so sharp-tongued!”
Its whole body burst with demonic power, enveloped in a thick silver glow.
The aura climbed higher and higher, far surpassing before, bringing joy to the Demon Clan present, while the Human Race’s faces showed worry.
’Whoosh!’
Its form transformed into a true silver lightning bolt, slashing through the sky, aiming ferociously at the Conical Hat Man!
The speed was so fast, even the void seemed to tremble, to wail.
But in the next moment.
’Boom!’
The silver light flew out even faster than before.
It spanned over a thousand yards, crashing into a small hill, shattering rocks, and sending dust clouds billowing.
The Conical Hat Man stood in place, shaking his head helplessly: “I told you, I only used twenty percent of my strength just now, why don’t you believe it?”
In the arena, both the Human and Demon Races were flabbergasted.
If one could excuse the Conical Hat Man’s earlier repelling of Chi Le Feng as a careless mistake on the werewolf’s part… now it appeared the strength of both parties was never on the same level.
“How… how is this possible?” Though lying on the ground, covered in blood, Jin Tingfeng exclaimed in shock with wide eyes.
No one understood the strength of the Wolf Demon better than he.
He believed he had pushed his physical cultivation to the limit within the sixth level realm, leaving no enemy unchallenged in his sect.
Even compared to those geniuses from the Central Continent, he would be on par, yet he couldn’t withstand even a few moves from the Wolf Demon.
“It’s said that the Red Hero is a Body Cultivator. Now it seems this Conical Hat Man is most likely him!” Xiahong, the ’Flame Divine Monarch’ of the Red Sun Sect, recalled rumors of the Red Hero, analyzing.
“Go for it, use your strength, and kill this evil wolf!” In the Corpse-Driving Sect’s camp, Bi Yaoyao was also emotionally shaken, unable to resist waving her little white fists.
“Very well, you’ve successfully angered me.”
The werewolf Chi Le Feng nonchalantly got up from the ground.
Again he turned into a silver lightning bolt, charging at the Conical Hat Man.
’Bang bang bang!’
’Clang clang clang!’
’Thump thump thump!’
The two engaged in intense combat within moments.
At close range, there was no magic, no demonic arts, just the purest physical strength clashing and colliding.
The sound of metal striking resounded sharply, ceaselessly.
Brilliant white sparks emerged and vanished in succession in the void, and blue-purple electric sparks burst forth.
Along with overwhelming waves of air rushing out from their center, disturbing the airflows of this world…
Gale winds rose, sand and rocks flew, dust filled the sky, presenting a magnificent scene.
In an instant, the combatants were engulfed in rolling dust, momentarily obscured from view.
A mid-level Demon General, a Cow Demon reaching a height of fifty yards, stepped into the dust, attempting to discern the battle situation.
Moments later, it screamed and retreated, its tough outer layer covered with gaping wounds, one horn snapped.
’Boom!’
With a mournful scream echoing.
A silver figure flew out from the dust, smashing through countless large trees and rocks before stopping.
At this time, the Conical Hat Man also emerged from the dust.
During the fierce exchange earlier, his conical hat had been damaged, and his true face was thus revealed to all present, human and demon alike.
“He really is the Red Hero!” Someone exclaimed.
…
