Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World Chapter 2266: Blood Escape Technique

The cultivator dressed in black robes also caught sight of Zhao Hai. Naturally, he failed to recognize him. Upon seeing Zhao Hai observing him with a vacant stare, the man let out a cold snort. He then lifted his arm, pointing a finger directly at Zhao Hai.

The surrounding Qi shifted abruptly, accompanied by the sudden roar of wind and thunder. The black-robed cultivator wasn't merely pointing; he intended to execute Zhao Hai on the spot.

As the black-robed cultivator launched his strike, Zhao Hai’s expression shifted. A chilling light flickered in his eyes as he snorted coldly, unsheathing his blade. He swung the weapon with a sharp slash aimed at the man’s incoming finger.

Observing the counterattack, the black-robed cultivator sneered, “Overestimating yourself!”

Boom! The two forces clashed violently. The black-robed cultivator was stunned to see Zhao Hai cleave through his finger attack. His face darkened as he pointed at Zhao Hai once more, shouting, “Windthunder Finger, Eradicate!” Following his command, the Qi of wind and thunder surged in intensity. Zhao Hai felt like a lone tree caught in a tempest, seemingly on the verge of being swept away.

This wasn't caused by actual physical gales, but was rather a sensation born of spiritual suppression backed by the power of the Teleportation Realm. Upon reaching the Teleportation Realm, a cultivator's techniques can channel the will of heaven and earth. The man in black had clearly infused the laws of wind and thunder into his move, making Zhao Hai feel as though he were trapped in the heart of a storm.

Even so, the black-robed cultivator had underestimated his opponent. Having slaughtered countless millions and ascended to a godlike status, Zhao Hai possessed a Dao Heart that was incredibly resilient. The black-robed man was delusional if he believed a mere spiritual assault could break Zhao Hai’s resolve.

Facing the follow-up attack, Zhao Hai let out a cold snort and bellowed, “Heavenly Demon Seven Killing Blades, Behead!” With that shout, his blade took on the immense weight of a sea of stars. The weapon erupted with a golden radiance before hacking ruthlessly toward the cultivator's finger.

Boom! A second collision occurred, far more powerful than the first. Zhao Hai was forced back several steps by the impact. The black-robed man fared much worse; because he was airborne, the force of the clash sent him reeling nearly a kilometer backward.

Though the black-robed cultivator managed to stabilize himself, he couldn't stop himself from coughing up blood. His eyes were wide with disbelief. He found it impossible to process that he had been repelled by Zhao Hai.

The man was truly shaken, as such a thing had never happened to him. While he had been wounded during his fight with the ape, the injuries weren't severe, and he had kept them suppressed. Furthermore, Zhao Hai was merely a Soul Fusion Cultivator. In his mind, despite Zhao Hai’s apparent strength, they were separated by two major realms. To a Soul Fusion Cultivator, a Teleportation Expert was essentially a deity. Such experts should be able to kill those at the Soul Fusion stage with a mere flick of a finger.

However, Zhao Hai had not only survived the assault but had also managed to worsen the cultivator's condition. The injuries the man had been suppressing were now flaring up again.

The black-robed man stared at Zhao Hai as if he were looking at a ghost, his face etched with shock. Zhao Hai merely snorted and gestured with his hand, shouting, “Heavenly Demon Seven Killing Blades, Behead!” His blade glowed once more as he lunged at the cultivator. The man’s expression turned pale at the sight of the move. His internal wounds were on the verge of erupting; if he continued this exchange, the consequences would be dire.

With that realization, the black-robed cultivator shifted immediately, attempting to evade the strike. He quickly discovered his error. Zhao Hai’s blade was not just incredibly fast—it possessed a homing quality.

The light of the blade curved, pursuing the black-robed man. Caught off guard by a technique he had never seen, he failed to dodge and took a direct hit. The unprepared cultivator was sent reeling, spitting out another mouthful of blood from the shock of the impact.

Zhao Hai had actually been holding back his true power. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have been able to make the man vomit blood. However, because the cultivator had already been hurt by the Strong Ape, his condition naturally deteriorated.

Observing the scene, Zhao Hai’s eyes gleamed. He had no intention of killing the man. Doing so would risk exposing his true capabilities. The lingering Qi from such a battle would signal that he possessed extraordinary power. While he could potentially scrub the battlefield of residual Qi, doing so would only invite unwanted suspicion. Consequently, Zhao Hai chose to let the man live.

Still, the fact that the black-robed cultivator was coughing up blood after only three exchanges highlighted a major vulnerability. His wounds were clearly more debilitating than they appeared. Zhao Hai wasn't about to pass up this chance; since he didn't need to reveal his full Cultivation, he saw no reason to be lenient.

As the man in black spat out more blood, his face turned deathly pale. He looked up to see Zhao Hai raising his blade once again. The cultivator couldn't help but roar, “Brat, I will remember this disgrace. Just you wait!” He then spat out another mouthful of blood, though this time it appeared to be a deliberate act.

Using the fresh blood, the black-robed cultivator quickly traced symbols in the air. Once a massive formation was completed, he hissed, “Blood Escape Technique.” The array immediately flared with a crimson light. When the glow faded, the black-robed man was gone.

Zhao Hai’s strike naturally hit nothing, but he remained unfazed. He glanced toward the spot where the man had vanished and whispered, “Blood Escape Technique? That seems like a secret art from the Evil Blood Sect. So he’s a devil cultivator? How curious. A devil cultivator infiltrating the Forbidden Path Sect’s lands to hunt for a Bloodless Command Token. I wonder how the Forbidden Path Sect would react to this news.” With a faint smirk, Zhao Hai sheathed his blade and vanished using a movement technique.

Zhao Hai recognized the technique because the Evil Blood Sect was a notorious devil cultivation organization within the True Spirit Realm. He was also aware that the sect had played a significant role in the alliance between Demon and Devil Cultivators.

Finding out the Evil Blood Sect was after the Bloodless Command Token was a significant discovery. If this information reached the Forbidden Path Sect, it would likely stir up trouble.

The Forbidden Path Sect wasn't the only group allowed to enter the Demon Blood Realm; other sects held quotas as well. However, those were all demonic sects, with no devil faction groups among them. The Evil Blood Sect's interest in the realm could create a massive divide between the Demonic and Devil Factions if the word got out.

Of course, Zhao Hai suspected the black-robed man hadn't come specifically for the token. If he had, he would have brought more funds. The Evil Blood Sect was a Great Sect, after all; if they truly wanted to buy something, they wouldn't be so short on cash.

It was more likely that the man was in the Forbidden Path Sect’s territory on other business and simply tried his luck at the auction. Based on his assets, he was likely an inner sect disciple of the Evil Blood Sect.

Regardless, none of this truly concerned Zhao Hai. His only goal was to find a way to leak this intel to the Forbidden Path Sect. Their subsequent actions were irrelevant to him.

Zhao Hai proceeded cautiously toward Strong Ape Mountain. He realized it wasn't the right moment to ascend. With the recent battle, the Strong Apes would be on high alert, making it easy for him to be spotted.

The Strong Apes held no love for humans, making communication nearly impossible. Unlike the mindless rocks Zhao Hai could talk to using his infinity technique, these apes possessed thoughts. While he was accustomed to communicating with inanimate objects, his skill in speaking with apes was still lacking.

Even though the Strong Apes lacked high intelligence, they weren't without wisdom. Subduing a sentient creature that was inherently hostile toward humanity would be a difficult task for Zhao Hai.

Furthermore, the Strong Apes were led by Teleportation Stage chiefs. Such experts possessed formidable spiritual strength. Even though these apes primarily focused on physical power, their spiritual force would multiply significantly upon reaching the Teleportation Stage. This was the only way they could develop intelligence comparable to humans.

If Zhao Hai attempted to use the Infinity Technique on them, the resulting spiritual fluctuations would surely tip off the Teleportation Stage apes. A Strong Ape at that level was far more dangerous than a human counterpart. If caught, Zhao Hai would be hunted down, potentially forcing him to reveal his hidden strength.

Because of this, Zhao Hai moved with extreme caution around the base of Strong Ape Mountain. Once he reached the foothills, he stopped. He could see several Strong Apes perched in the trees. These creatures weren't particularly large, standing only about two meters tall, and they lacked a muscular build, appearing more like common black monkeys.
