The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2604 - 2593: Blood Loss
Previously on The Strongest Dandy in the City...
An Juncai, Qiu Hao, and others, who were certain that Ye Chenfeng would be taken down by Shi Gaoyang, were momentarily stunned when Ye Chenfeng’s light voice reached their ears, and seeing Shi Gaoyang’s tragic death on the ground, their minds went blank. Once again, the situation had gone beyond their expectations.
Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief. Now, they were essentially in the same boat as Ye Chenfeng and naturally didn’t want anything to happen to him. However, they hadn’t expected Ye Chenfeng to solve the problem of Shi Gaoyang, who had grown in strength to the Middle Stage of the Divine Emperor Realm, so effortlessly.
The surroundings were extremely quiet, with only the sound of breathing echoing in the air when Ye Chenfeng intended to make a move on Qiu Hao and others.
With a "bang!" sound again.
The headless corpse of Shi Gaoyang suddenly exploded without any warning.
The blood mist from the explosion formed a blood pillar, directly rushing towards the golden casket in the sky.
As the blood pillar struck the golden casket, it transformed into extremely fine blood threads, winding around the entire golden casket.
"A bunch of useless wastes, why should I keep you?" Skyhawk’s voice resonated throughout this area.
As his words fell.
An Juncai and Qiu Hao’s faces changed dramatically, and they suddenly felt an extreme sense of discomfort, as if their bones, meridians, cells, skin, and everything within them were rapidly swelling, with their bodies on the brink of bursting.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!—"
Apart from An Juncai and Qiu Hao, the bodies of other cultivators, who were weaker than them, rapidly exploded into masses of blood mist in the air.
All these blood mists transformed into blood pillars and rushed towards the golden casket in the sky.
Just like Shi Gaoyang’s blood pillar, these blood pillars turned into extremely fine blood threads upon hitting the golden casket, winding around its entirety.
An Juncai and Qiu Hao watched as others’ bodies exploded entirely. At this moment, they began to realize that something was wrong with their rapid power surge, as blood marks resembling spider webs began to appear densely across their skin.
An Juncai and Qiu Hao frantically operated the Spiritual Qi River within their meridians, attempting to suppress the swelling force. Unfortunately, it was all in vain, and blood continuously seeped from the corners of their mouths.
Treating Ye Chenfeng as their last lifeline, An Juncai, spitting blood, screamed, "Save me, save me, please, I’m begging you."
Qiu Hao also wanted to cry for help.
But he didn’t even have time to speak.
"Bang! Bang!"
An Juncai and Qiu Hao’s bodies exploded entirely as well, and like others before them, their blood turned into blood threads enclosing the golden casket.
All of this happened in just over ten seconds. Ye Chenfeng watched the golden casket in the sky wrapped in fine blood threads, lost in thought. He saw that the casket was slowly absorbing these blood threads, or rather, it was Skyhawk inside the casket absorbing them.
Previously, at the gates of Eternal City, many cultivators died miserably, turning into blood, which rapidly permeated into the ground.
Most likely, the blood seeping into the ground was also absorbed by Skyhawk.
The Eternal River Domain has opened many times, and each time, many cultivators die here. If Skyhawk absorbed all these people’s blood, having absorbed such a massive amount would undoubtedly be related to Skyhawk’s recovery.
Although Skyhawk still lives, his body must have some issues by now.
Ye Chenfeng couldn’t wait for Skyhawk to recover. He glanced at Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, saying, "Stay where you are and don’t move."
After speaking,
Ye Chenfeng activated the Spiritual Qi River within his meridians, and his figure stepped into the air towards the golden casket in the sky.
In just an instant, he reached the golden casket wrapped in blood threads. He could sense more clearly the heavy breathing inside.
"Boy, my patience has limits. Your combat power exceeded my expectations."
"But, that’s good. You better meet my requirements now."
Skyhawk’s voice echoed through the air.
Ye Chenfeng decided not to wait any longer and attacked the golden casket directly.
The golden casket seemed to sense Ye Chenfeng’s actions and swiftly retreated a significant distance.
Then, with explosive force, it rushed fiercely towards Ye Chenfeng’s body.
Ye Chenfeng’s right fist blasted out directly, his fist enveloped by a thick layer of spiritual energy, and the surrounding space twisted intensely, with a piercing sound echoing sharply.
With a "clang!"
Ye Chenfeng’s arm went numb, while the golden casket was sent flying by his punch.
He had no intention of pausing; his figure swiftly caught up with the golden casket, standing atop it.
With a forceful stomp
"Bang!"
The entire golden casket plunged rapidly towards the ground.
"Boom!"
As a result, half of the golden casket was embedded in the ground, yet its surface showed no signs of damage.
The blood threads wrapping the golden casket had vanished, presumably absorbed by Skyhawk inside.
"Boy, you’ll regret this. I’ll make you regret it," Skyhawk’s angry roar rang out.
Ye Chenfeng placed both hands on the casket lid, trying to open it. However, as he exerted force to push, complex golden patterns flickered on the lid.
Numerous formations were inscribed on this golden casket, and to open the lid, the formations had to be deciphered.
Fortunately, these formations posed no challenge to Ye Chenfeng. He rapidly dismantled them one by one until the last formation was undone. Placing his hands on the casket lid again, he attempted to push it open.
But his brow furrowed sharply; his hands felt as if they were being absorbed by the casket lid, and he couldn’t pull them away. Moreover, intense pain erupted in the palms of his hands, as if they were being cut open, with blood continuously seeping from the wounds.
The entire golden casket, like a vampire, was ravenously consuming his blood through the two wounds on Ye Chenfeng’s palms.
The blood within Ye Chenfeng’s body flowed out faster and faster. He only felt his limbs weaken, his entire being on the verge of collapse, and his face growing paler by the second.
"Boy, I told you you’d regret this," Skyhawk’s cold laughter suddenly echoed.
