Fang Yu stopped Shen Heilian from acting against him and then left. Meanwhile, Northern Crane was about to severely injure Yu Ji, but suddenly, Master Jiu's arm was severed, and Northern Crane was killed by Fang Yu.

Within a mere hundred meters, he covered the distance in the blink of an eye!

Incredibly fast! Astonishingly fast!

Wood Realm! He must be a Wood Realm Warrior!!

The Alcohol Monk’s entire body trembled, yet he could barely articulate a word.

"Jiu... Jiuyang..."

Crack!

With a swift twist of his neck, Fang Yu’s brow furrowed immediately.

The tactile sensation felt off. It was akin to twisting a solid block of marble; the sensation transmitted downwards was as if he had shattered some stone.

He raised his head and checked the opponent’s HP bar; as expected, there were still over a thousand HP remaining.

A cold laugh escaped Fang Yu as he forcefully slammed the one-armed monk into the ground.

Bang!!

The impact again carried that peculiar, stony texture; his broken arm and torn flesh flew outwards, scattering like small pebbles.

"What a Cultivation Technique, not bad at all."

He crouched down and drove a fist directly into the monk’s chest!

Bang!!

The one-armed monk’s eyes bulged instantly, and he spewed blood with a "waa," no longer able to maintain even the pretense of death.

"Spare me! My lord, spare me!!"

Gazing at Fang Yu’s blood-drenched fist and the horrifying indentation in his abdomen that had completely caved inward, the one-armed monk was engulfed in sheer panic.

In his current dilapidated state, he was scarcely different from the Northwest Crane from earlier.

Fang Yu merely tilted his head slightly and declared, "You ganged up on me, and now you pay the price."

As these words left his lips, his fist descended like a hammer towards the monk’s head!

"If you kill me! Jiuyang Temple will never let you go!!!"

Bang!!!

The stone-like head was violently smashed open, a significant portion obliterated; the one-armed monk’s facial features ruptured, creating a scene too ghastly to behold.

Simultaneously, his HP bar was finally depleted, and a System Prompt echoed.

[Jiu Bujie: 0/5999.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the Player for defeating [Jiu Bujie], acquiring 5 Experience Points.]

[System Prompt: Detected that [Jiu Bujie] is Human; the [Green Demon Blood] bloodline talent has been activated.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the Player, maximum Life Value has increased by 5999 points.]

[System Prompt: The slaughter amongst Humans generates resentment, which coalesces into Evil Qi and encircles your body.]

Humans encounter bottlenecks. The limitations of Martial Arts are not easily overcome by just anyone. Numerous individuals become trapped before these obstacles, stuck at the apex of human endeavor, confined by the boundaries of their personal potential.

To progress further, one must either become a Believer, a Demon Martial Artist, or carve out an entirely different path. However, a realm remains a realm; failure to transcend it means remaining perpetually a level below others.

"Jiuyang Temple."

Fang Yu resolved to return and inquire about this Jiuyang Temple from Monk Quan Heng. As they were all monks, perhaps Monk Quan Heng would possess some knowledge.

"D-dead, they’re dead?! Master Jiu and Lord Northwest Crane are both deceased!!"

Someone happening upon the scene shrieked in terror.

Mo Jueli, who was on the brink of victory in her siege against Lu Qiaochun, turned and witnessed the unfolding events. Her complexion shifted dramatically in that instant; her soul nearly leaped from her body.

At best, her strength was comparable to the Northwest Crane, falling far short of Master Jiu. Yet, even Master Jiu had perished by the young man’s hand—how could she possibly contend with him!

She cast a fleeting glance back towards Mr. Huang’s position. Seeing the stunned, panicked, and terrified expression on Mr. Huang’s face, Mo Jueli abruptly retreated. With a few swift bounds, she reached the edge of the courtyard wall. A single leap carried her over the barrier, and her figure vanished entirely from sight.

Her series of movements flowed with such seamless grace and naturalness that the other observers hadn’t even registered her actions before Mo Jueli had already departed.

"M-my lord..."

Yu Ji regarded Fang Yu with a complex expression.

A moment prior, he had been facing the imminent peril of having his limb severed; the next moment, the danger had vanished, and the enemy had already been neutralized. Everything transpired so swiftly that his mind struggled to keep pace.

What significantly impacted him was the sheer intensity of the preceding crisis, leaving his spirit somewhat dazed. For a Martial Artist, a severed limb was practically tantamount to extinguishing their future in Martial Arts! It was an injury of the gravest consequence!

It could be said that having lost a limb, he could scarcely anticipate being of much further utility to the Rebel Army.

"My lord..."

Lu Qiaochun, possessing greater strength, had endured the onslaught of attackers. She appeared fatigued, clearly having not experienced an easy engagement; her boasted combat power of five thousand HP seemed somewhat exaggerated.

"A-a monster!"

"Run, run, run! We are absolutely no match for this individual!"

"Even Master Jiu... Mr. Huang, apologies, but we are making our escape!"

"He’s the one who returned—then what about Lord Hei Lian? And that demon... don’t tell me they’ve all already been..."

A general desire to flee like startled birds and beasts gripped everyone. Mr. Huang stood frozen, letting his two children shield him as his mind went utterly blank.

At this precise moment, Fang Yu, perceived by all as a homicidal maniac, did something entirely unforeseen.

He was observed propping up his subordinate, then rushing over to lift the woman. With a flick of his toes, he sprang upward, vaulting over the courtyard wall and making his departure from the Huang Mansion directly!

What in the world?

He was clearly the victor here, wasn't he? If anyone was to run, surely it should have been us, right?

Unable to comprehend the situation and baffled by the turn of events, the assembled crowd inexplicably slowed their flight. They gazed at each other, bewildered and at a loss.

One individual, however, voiced a hesitant query, "Could it be that fellow's objective... isn't us, nor is it Mr. Huang?"

As these words were spoken, a collective realization dawned upon everyone: when this man had stormed into the hall, he had directly invoked the names of the Qin-Jian Twin Supremes. Beyond that, he had not seemed to intend causing trouble for anyone else whatsoever. It was purely their own hubris, acting against him under Mr. Huang’s command...

So, in the end, we were the ones who brought about our own demise???

At this juncture, Mr. Huang also slumped to the ground, gasping for breath, feeling as though he had narrowly cheated death.

He had always prided himself on having allies across the globe and maintained strong ties with numerous experts in Thunder City. Yet, who could have imagined that these so-called "experts" were merely impressive on paper and utterly useless in practice!

A mere unknown upstart appears from nowhere and annihilates all the so-called experts he knew, leaving not a single shred of armor—they were nothing but a collection of rabble!

"Oh? It seems I’ve returned a bit belatedly. Mr. Huang, is this birthday banquet still proceeding?"

Just then, a clear female voice resonated. All heads turned, and they beheld Shen Heilian, her form speckled with fragments of demon flesh and drenched in blood, having made her return.

"Miss... Shen."

Mr. Huang uttered the words with a complex mix of emotions playing across his face.

As for the birthday banquet, that was evidently... not going to happen.

...

The two Greater Demons yielded a combined total of over thirty attribute points.

One might term it a spectacular, massive haul!

The preceding several cautious expeditions, coupled with the meager yield from a few Blood Demons, were all compensated for by these two formidable demons!

Fang Yu's current state of mind could best be described as exceptionally buoyant!

In terms of sheer effectiveness, this method was by no means slower than when he had employed Evil Qi to lure demons to their doom.

He proceeded to re-examine his Life Value.

[Life: 104561/107257.]

His Life Value had now decisively surpassed the hundred-thousand mark!

Apart from the HP contributed by the two experts, each possessing four to five thousand HP, there was also the incidental HP gained from those minor individuals who perished during the Qi Explosion Heaven-Whirl.

However, moments ago, since he had not fully activated his Bone Armor for defensive purposes, the direct exchange of HP with the demons had resulted in a rather significant decrease in his own.

Furthermore, the battles had been a continuous sequence. While regeneration was possible, the relentless succession of fights meant the HP regen efficiency was notably low, preventing his HP bar from refilling completely.

Yet, with his Life Value having already breached the hundred-thousand threshold, Fang Yu scarcely gave this minor loss of HP any real consideration.

He felt an inclination to be even more reckless; his prior combat strategy had, in retrospect, been too reserved.

He was distinctly different from ordinary Martial Artists. Possessing a demon-level HP reservoir, he harbored no fear of sustaining injuries and subsequent HP depletion whatsoever. Against those lower-tier demons, he could simply unleash overwhelming damage and dispatch them swiftly, thereby drastically enhancing efficiency, rather than ending up in a situation like this, where his two subordinates narrowly avoided disaster.

He withdrew the Talisman of Malevolence Dispelling [Dragon Soul Seal], an artifact resembling an official seal yet also possessing the characteristics of a Jade Seal. The instant it rested upon his palm, the pervasive Evil Qi enveloping his entire being was rapidly purged. Within mere seconds, it had been completely eradicated, leaving him with a sensation of profound lightness throughout his body.

[System Prompt: Harmony calms the heart, evil thoughts dissipate, the body feels light.]

Excellent!

The efficacy was indeed potent!

Truly worthy of being a specialized Talisman of Malevolence Dispelling for entry into a Land of Gathering Evil. Its power was on an entirely different plane compared to that previous tattered remnant of soul attire.

With no lingering concerns regarding the ramifications of his actions, Fang Yu suddenly felt that numerous inhibitions no longer required his adherence—he could finally unleash himself and go all out!
