Chapter 85 Ch 85: Regaining Freedom
"Pfft!"
The moment the Heart Devouring Blade was destroyed, Zaal felt as if he'd been struck by lightning, and he took a few heavy steps back.
The Heart Devouring Blade was created by him. It was his life treasure and was connected to him by blood. Now that the Heart Devouring Blade was destroyed, he suffered heavy injuries.
"You dare to destroy my treasure!" Zaal was shocked beyond belief as he screamed at Alex.
Zhu Yun, on the other hand, had seen with her own eyes how this Innate Stage martial warrior had shattered a Saint Grade Weapon with his bare hands. It was said that Zaal's Heart Devouring Blade was one of the strongest even among all the Saint Grade Weapons, it was extremely close to being a Royal Rank Treasure. Even she wouldn't be able to shatter such a treasure with bare hands, but Alex was able to do so.
What kind of strength was this?
Zhu Yun sighed in her heart and then she started to worry for Alex. No matter what, that old man is an Origin Sea Stage martial warrior. On top of them, he is a demonic cultivator who is indifferent to human lives and can slaughter an entire country if he were to fall into madness. The difference between him and Alex was too great!
"I'll tear you apart alive!"
The old man was truly enraged this time, to think that he would be thwarted by a mere kid at the Innate Stage.
His spirit energy completely exploded out, and the Yin Qi on his body took the shape of a ghost head.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The old man stretched his hand and formed a sharp claw that brought with it a violent gust of wind as he attacked Alex.
"You won't have a chance!"
Alex said as he immediately took out the Heavy Earth Sword and slashed it a few times in the air as well as at the ground.
The next moment, Zhu Yun felt as if she has been freed from the restriction. She looked at Alex in surprise and understood that Alex had somehow broken the formation trapping her here.
She looked at the old man whose attack was about to land on Alex's body.
She let out a cold snort before suddenly appearing in front of Alex and ferociously kicking the heart of the old man.
The old man was sent flying and crashed into the stone walls of the cave.
Zhu Yun didn't hesitate at all. She instantly charged to the side of the old man and ferociously smashed her fist on his body.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Zhu Yun punched the old man several times, and each punch landed solidly on his body. She was a Heavenly Completion Stage Level 1 martial warrior. Her strength was far greater than the old man. However, maybe due to being trapped in the formation for a long time, she was not in her peak state. But still, countless cracks had already appeared on the mountain wall behind the old man. After Zhu Yun's final punch, the old man was immediately embedded into the mountain wall.
"Cough, cough, cough!" The old man was not dead even after that. He spat out a mouthful of blood as his eyes revealed shock.
"Impossible! How could you know how to break the formation? This formation is something I developed after countless years of research. Other than me, no one else knows about this formation. How did you break it?" The demonic cultivator cried out in disbelief as he pointed at Alex.
Ka ka!
Before Alex could say anything, Zhu Yun suddenly sent an elbow over and ruthlessly smashed the old man's face. Half of his face immediately turned red and swollen and he once again fell to the ground, spitting out spittle from his mouth.
"You little bitch!" The old man screamed miserably and cursed Zhu Yun.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The next moment, Zhu Yun's foot followed closely behind, stomping the old man's face into the ground.
"Yin Fury Palm!"
The old man suddenly erupted with astonishing strength and slammed his palms on the ground as a strong surge of spirit power gushed out.
However, Zhu Yun was after all a Heavenly Completion Stage martial warrior. How could she let the old man do what he wants? She was also furious, for the old man has been trapping her for a very long time and was mocking, blackmailing, and torturing her.
She also suddenly stomped on the ground as the floor of the cave suddenly shook.
From outside the cave, the sound of thunder was heard suddenly.
BOOM!
Accompanied by bursts of thunderclaps, the earth beneath Zhu Yun's feet surged with a strong aura, attaching itself to her body.
Now, she could sense the power of heaven and earth entering her body at an extremely fast speed as an indescribable aura emerged.
She was weakened by the formation previously, but now, she started recovering her lost strength. She also swallowed a pill and the speed of her recovery sped up.
"You killed countless innocent people. Your crimes are deep. Today, I will kill you in the name of Profound Star Sect."
Zhu Yun's tone was calm. Suddenly, a tyrannical wave of energy erupted from her body, directly shattering the ground below her feet.
"Blood Essence Separating Art!"
The old man felt a threatening aura and knew the situation has become perilous. If he didn't do anything now, he'll definitely die. So, he used his last bit of strength to suddenly let out an explosive shout as countless amounts of blood energy shot out from the abyss.
Accompanied by the blood energy was a miserable shriek.
Numerous blood demons formed from the blood mist appeared in front of the old man. Their expressions were ferocious. There were holes in the place of their hearts.
"Swallow her!" The old man pointed at Zhu Yun.
The group of blood demons smelled the scent of the living and screamed as they pounced forward.
A cold glint appeared in Zhu Yun's eyes as she looked at the incoming blood demons. She suddenly shouted, "Disperse!"
Whoosh!
It was as if a gale had blown past, and the blood demons disappeared immediately, leaving the old man staring at her in astonishment.
Zhu Yun suddenly stepped forward and ruthlessly smashed her fist on the shield in front of the old man. Then she said coldly, "If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for doing so many evils."
Boom!
Her punch landed on the old man's body. With a series of 'ka ka ka' sounds, the old man's body bent into a shrimp.
Bang! Bang! Bang!!
As if she was striking randomly with a heavy hammer, each of her punches landed heavily on the old man's heart, causing him to groan painfully every time.
Waves of heavy banging sounds echoed in the cave.
After all, the old man was still an Origin Seal Stage martial warrior and his vitality was extremely tenacious. Because of this, he was still able to remain alive.
"Pfft!"
The old man continuously spat out blood as his aura became weak to the extreme. Zhu Yun's powerful strength made him look like an insurmountable mountain, rendering him unable to counterattack.
"You little bitch, go and die for your father!"
The old man suddenly roared and threw out a flying bug from his sleeve, causing an insect to appear.
This insect's body was wide and fat, its outer shell was covered with strange black patterns, and it looked very horrifying. When this insect appeared, the air was immediately filled with a dense black fog. Some black fog floated on the stones and could even corrode solid stones.
Pow!
A cold light flashed in Zhu Yun's eyes, and with a swing of her hand, she sent the bug flying.
The worm was slapped into the stone wall, causing a pool of blood to burst out. After that, it remained motionless, as dead as it could be.
"You still dare to use your hands to touch my Nine Poison Worm King? You're dead, bitch!" A mocking smile rose on the old man's face as she said.
Zhu Yun raised her hand and saw that on her palm, a black pattern appeared out of nowhere at some time.
"Nine Poison Worm King, I have refined it for twenty years. I never thought it would be used on a beauty like you. Cough, cough, cough!" The old man coughed up blood, but the excitement in his eyes couldn't be concealed. This was a poison that could even kill a Heavenly Completion Stage Level 9.
He was about to speak when a look of shock once again flashed through his eyes.
On Zhu Yun's hand, a white of thin ice suddenly appeared and started spreading!
Wherever the ice spread to, the pitch-black poison seemed to have met its natural predator as it melted away into nothingness.
Within the span of three seconds, the poison on Zhu Yun's arm was burnt into wisps of green smoke.
In an instant, the poison in Zhu Yun's body had been completely dispersed.
