Chapter 496: Surging Blood Qi! The Face-Slap Comes Too Fast! The Elder Daoist Whose Arts Connect to the Mystical!

A grave look appeared in the elder Daoist’s eyes. Those two grotesque eyeballs, hidden within his bloodied flesh, spun wildly as if intimidated by Li Yanchu’s immense aura.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The air vibrated with the sound of powerful heartbeats.

Li Yanchu was no longer in that mysterious town; he had fully restored his strength. His heartbeat surged with astonishing vitality, and the searing blood qi emanating from him made the very air feel aflame. It was as if the figure standing before the old Daoist was not a man, but a sun itself, radiating terrifying energy ripples that spread outward in an instant.

Boom! A tremendous sound shook the land.

As Li Yanchu took a step forward, the earth quaked and mountains trembled. Then, the scorching blood qi in his fists sent shockwaves through heaven and earth. Every strike he unleashed carried a raw, unbridled power beyond the endurance of ordinary mortals.

The old Daoist’s fingers formed a sword gesture before him, conjuring a massive black talisman. The talisman radiated an eerie, fearsome aura that sent chills through the soul.

Rumble rumble rumble!

Instantly, the talisman shattered. Li Yanchu’s overwhelming blood qi blasted the ground beneath the Daoist, forming a depression in the earth. The surrounding soil cracked violently, and the ancient formation beneath him was shattered.

The strange old Daoist furrowed his brow, grateful that he had been in the air at that critical moment.

Why does this young Daoist possess such overwhelming blood qi?

A ruthless glint appeared in the old Daoist’s eyes, his smile both strange and rigid. He had taken on a liking to this body.

Clang!

The old Daoist drew forth a verdigris-covered coin sword, pointing it at Li Yanchu from a distance, and thrust forward with lethal precision.

Roar!

A colossal, black, ferocious dragon immediately materialized in the air.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The surrounding air was compressed and burst apart, filling the space with an ancient, formidable aura.

Roar!

Suddenly, the black dragon lunged at Li Yanchu with murderous intent. Li Yanchu strode forward with wild, overwhelming momentum, and with a single heavy punch, he struck the dragon’s head.

Boom! A massive tremor erupted all around as it let out a deafening roar in that instant. Although the black dragon’s body was extraordinarily solid, it now seemed dimmed and weakened.

Li Yanchu paid no mind and struck again with another punch!

Boom!

Instantly, a terrifying explosion roared into the sky. Rocks and dust flew in all directions, and the scene was utterly chaotic and shocking to behold.

The black dragon was utterly obliterated by Li Yanchu’s overwhelming blood qi; it was reduced to ashes, scorched clean, disappearing entirely from the world. Two punches had completely destroyed it!

At this time, the coin sword in the old Daoist’s hand also shattered with a bang. No one could have imagined that a young Daoist of such refined bearing would unleash such a violent style at the first strike.

The old Daoist relied solely on his keen intuition to evade the residual shockwave of Li Yanchu’s mighty punch. He formed a strange hand seal, and his body suddenly vanished, reappearing in the sky!

Pffft!

Another eye cracked open on his face. He now had three grotesque eyes, each like a spider’s compound eye, constantly rotating in different directions, giving off an intensely sinister impression.

With the appearance of this eerie eye, the old Daoist’s aura grew even more oppressive.

“Little brat, you’re so arrogant just because of your incredible body. You truly don’t know your place. Let this old Daoist teach you a lesson!” A strange voice rang out again.

The surroundings seemed to be swallowed by darkness, completely engulfed. Within that darkness, several red, sinister, icy gazes glared out. Then, a massive, long-bearded, terrifying old Daoist’s face appeared in the sky.

“I’m standing right here. If you’ve got the guts, come at me!” Li Yanchu sneered contemptuously.

His Jiaoslayer was raised high and slashed directly at the massive face.

A dense, malevolent aura erupted from the old Daoist’s face, but it still could not withstand Li Yanchu’s Jiaoslayer. This was a treasure worth 100,000 merit points, and its power was astonishing!

Crack! As the massive face shattered, everything around changed; the inky blackness rapidly faded, as if it had never existed.

At this time, blood continuously streamed down the old Daoist’s face as he looked at Li Yanchu in shock. The “slap in the face” came too fast, like a tornado, catching him completely off guard.

From his chest, he pulled out two straw effigies, bit his tongue, and let two drops of blood fall onto them. Then he recited a few incantations toward the dolls.

In an instant, the straw figures grew in the wind, transforming into two hulking generals with cold expressions. One carried two octagonal heavy hammers, the other a zhanmadao, sharp and heavy, with thin blades on the back.

The moment they appeared, the surrounding yin qi thickened, gusts of sinister wind blew. At the very least, these were on the level of ghost generals, terrifying supernatural entities.

Clang clang! The sound of armor colliding rang out.

Instantly, the two towering generals charged at Li Yanchu with immense force. One had a red face, the other black, and their momentum when running felt like an army of a thousand horses charging; it was truly astonishing. No ordinary cultivator could withstand them.

Clang!

Li Yanchu swung his Jiaoslayer again. The blade shredded the hulking generals completely!

In shock, the old Daoist with three eerie eyes twitched at the corner of his mouth as he stared at Li Yanchu’s blade.

“Why so quiet? Weren’t you quite talkative just now?” Li Yanchu sneered, stepping forward with the Jiaoslayer in hand. No matter what tricks this scruffy old Daoist tried, he was no match.

At this moment, Li Yanchu’s blood qi and physique rivaled that of a third-realm cultivator. He didn’t possess third-realm divine abilities, but his strength was still overwhelming.

The old Daoist’s face finally darkened. However, the three eyes on his face now felt very different from his original pair, and they now radiated an ominous, foreboding aura. One of the bizarre eyes emitted a dazzling red light, like a sharp sword, shooting straight toward Li Yanchu.

Pffft! 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

The light moved at incredible speed. Li Yanchu raised his Qi Shield, but the red light penetrated almost effortlessly. Still, the red light was forced back by Li Yanchu’s raging blood qi. A third-realm body was terrifying indeed. The raw, yang force radiated heat across the land, as if a blazing furnace were standing in the world.

As he watched, the old Daoist’s expression darkened; fear crept into his heart. He stomped the Seven-Star Step, formed hand seals, and chanted incantations.

A massive formation, larger than the previous Spirit-Refining Formation , suddenly appeared. This old Daoist had been using the Spirit-Refining formation in Dongyang County to extract the essence and blood of living villagers to forge soul and blood pills. Such a formation was naturally not easy to destroy.

The air became thick and viscous, as if one were trapped in a swamp or a sea of blood. Breathing became difficult, and the spiritual energy in the world grew extremely sparse.

Massive runes slowly appeared, razor-sharp, cutting through everything they touched. It was like a grinding mill crushing blood and flesh across the world had been activated!
