"But in the forest up ahead, I saw a strange pond," said Ding Yu. "Calling it a pond is a bit misleading though, as the water within it was blood-red and emitted intense heat."
"Blood Red Water in the pond? Emitting intense heat?" Hearing Ding Yu’s description, Shi Feng was interested in taking a look.
"If I’m not mistaken, that should be Blood Chihydro," said the Sacred Fla from within his body.
"Blood Chihydro?" Shi Feng had never heard of this before. He communicated with the Sacred Fla using his soul, "Is it useful to you?"
"It’s of no use to , but it is beneficial for you. Your physical body can absorb it to refined itself," replied the Sacred Fla.
"Really?" Shi Feng’s heart surged with joy upon hearing the Sacred Fla’s words. His main focus was on his Martial Arts cultivation, and his Soul Power was capable of devouring other souls, so he hadn’t neglected that, but his physical body had fallen behind considerably. Despite having improved through nurous life-and-death battles, his current physical strength was only at the mid-level of the Martial Spirit Realm.
"Take there to see it!" said Shi Feng to Ding Yu.
"Alright, follow !" After speaking, Ding Yu’s body soared into the air, and Shi Feng shot up after her. With a "snap," they pierced through the thick blood-colored leaves and entered the void.
Led by Ding Yu, Shi Feng followed her towards the Blood Pool filled with Blood Chihydro, "It’s just over there!" It didn’t take long for Ding Yu to point to a spot not far ahead.
In the Blood-colored Forest, there was a pond with a radius of about five ters, filled entirely with blood-red water. In the center of the blood water, the young body of a boy was standing.
"My son, this water is called Blood Chihydro. Use the Body Refinent Realm techniques your teacher taught you, and absorb this blood water with your physical body to refine it," said an elderly, hoarse voice coming from the Jade Scroll hanging on the boy’s chest.
"I understand, Teacher!" the boy replied. His hands ford a Profound Hand Seal, his pores opened wide as he began to absorb the blood and refine his physical body.
But at that mont, the young man’s body suddenly shook. He swiftly turned around, and a pale hand erged from the blood water. Above his head, a white Sword Qi was swiftly stabbing down towards him. The youth’s hand, erging from the blood water, instantly blazed with fierce green flas, and he struck with his palm towards the descending white Sword Qi.
"Boom!" Under the youth’s green fla palm, the white Sword Qi was imdiately extinguished.
"It’s the Green Lotus Earth Fire!" Sacred Fla sensed the green flas ignited in the young man’s palm, and Shi Feng, who stood proudly in the void, imdiately received the information from the Sacred Fla. Shi Feng could feel the joy that Sacred Fla transferred to him.
"It’s you!" Shi Feng exclaid upon seeing the young and handso face that surfaced above the blood pond. This person was none other than Yang Zhong.
"It’s you!" At this mont, Yang Zhong was also staring at Shi Feng in the void with a murderous face. It really was a small world for enemies; the last ti it was because of this man, in the magma of the Fla Territory, his master nearly had his soul dispersed, and he himself almost died at this man’s hand. Moreover, Yang Zhong now also knew another identity of this man, who ca from the Nine Nether Lineage.
"It’s him! I saw him once in Frost City; he had a disagreent with a disciple of the Floating Void Sect and they clashed fiercely. Later, I heard people nearby say that this man is the recent rising talent in the Heavenly Mist Empire—Yang Zhong!" Ding Yu spoke to Shi Feng beside him.
"Shi Feng, you are surely going to die today!"
As soon as these words fell, there was not much to say when mortal enemies t. Yang Zhong had already burst out from the Blood Pool with a "boom!" His entire being erupted in green flas, transforming into a being made of fire. Under the intense heat of the green flas, the air around Yang Zhong distorted and twisted, giving rise to wisps of steam.
Following that, Yang Zhong charged a palm towards Shi Feng above him with force, and a massive green fla handprint blasted upwards.
"Break!" Shi Feng let out a low shout, slashing with his Bloodthirsty Sword, and a half-moon-shaped white suddenly cut through the air, clashing with the Green Fla Intense Palm with a "boom!" The two powerful energies collided and both were annihilated.
By this ti, Yang Zhong had reached Shi Feng’s front, his body surging with green flas, revealing Yang Zhong’s handso face and most of his torso. Then, all the green flas gathered on his right fist, filled with imnse fla energy that seed as though it could burn everything to ashes, and ferociously struck towards Shi Feng.
Sensing the extraordinary nature of this punch, Shi Feng didn’t expect that, in such a short ti, this man had grown to such an extent, showing that the soul that had once been attached to this man was not ordinary.
"Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique, Blocking Style!" Shi Feng shouted, as the Bloodthirsty Sword also erupted with blood-colored blaze. On the blood-colored blaze, threads of white lightning coursed. He then used it to block the punch that Yang Zhong had hurled towards him!
"Clang!" A sound like that of a hard object violently colliding with tal rang out from the forest—the Bloodthirsty Sword had blocked Yang Zhong’s strike. Imdiately following, the blade of the sword turned, "Netherworld One Sword!" He lunged straight at Yang Zhong’s chest, and at the sa ti, he unleashed several sword shadows of white, sweeping toward Yang Zhong.
"Just a trick, how could it harm ! Break!" Yang Zhong shouted, his blue fiery fist blasting upwards from below, "Clang!" The fist, wild and domineering, slamd onto the Bloodthirsty Sword engulfed by the blood-colored blaze and shattered Shi Feng’s Netherworld One Sword.
Netherworld One Sword, was all about speed, striking with a velocity beyond the capture of the weaker, for its speed was so fast that ordinary people could hardly trace it—it appeared slow, but in reality, it was too swift to see clearly. Qin Ao and Guh Jiang had died under this sword because of this.
Yet Yang Zhong managed to capture the speed and trajectory of Netherworld One Sword and even broke it with one punch. Following that, the violent green flas erupted from his body, burning towards Shi Feng.
"Burn!" At the sa ti, blood-colored flas surged out from Shi Feng’s body as well. Green flas and blood flas, like two ferocious beasts, collided violently, and the fierce energy, centered around the two ferocious flas, ravaged rapidly in all directions.
At this ti, Ding Yu, watching the fight, also sensed the fierce energy coming her way; her body quickly retreated, speeding away from the battlefield. A look of horror covered her face as she rembered what soone had ntioned back in Frost City—that Yang Zhong ca from the Yunlai Empire.
The Yunlai Empire. And that other monstrous youth was also from the Yunlai Empire. Such a small Empire had produced two such demons; each younger than she, yet both stronger than herself.
Then she recalled the words Shi Feng had just said to her: "Heroes do not ask about one’s origins."
