Xu Fan's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he felt an overwhelming tightness all around him, as if an invisible giant hand had locked onto him, rendering him immobile.
And Harden Marquis himself, his figure like a streak of light, was on the other side of the platform just now, but in the next mont, he suddenly appeared right in front of Xu Fan.
"Damn!" Xu Fan's heart sank, a decisive look flashed in his eyes, and an explosion of a dragon and an elephant erupted towards Harden Marquis.
Harden Marquis's punch was like a vast blood sea, with overwhelming montum. In contrast, Xu Fan's dragon and elephant were like a re raft in the ocean, seemingly insignificant, unable to stir up even the slightest wave.
"You reckless brat! Feel the taste of despair!"
Harden Marquis laughed wildly, the all-encompassing blood sea engulfed Xu Fan's dragon and elephant; Harden Marquis's punch directly struck Xu Fan's chest, causing blood to spill from the corner of his mouth, and he flew backward, yet Harden Marquis's move was not over, the blood sea roiled and boiled, raising waves of blood dozens of feet high, directly subrging Xu Fan.
"Xu Fan!" Avril and Xia Xiaodie exclaid from below the stage, while Qu Yingliu and Liu Rufeng were about to rush onto the platform, only to be blocked by Old Undying.
They turned around, glaring at Old Undying, "Li Nantian! What do you think you're doing? That's your disciple!"
Old Undying shook his head, his expression extrely resolute, "This is a battle he himself proposed, if he can't last three moves, no one is allowed to interfere!"
The person who knows Xu Fan best in this world is probably Old Undying. After all, Xu Fan was raised by Old Undying, who later taught Xu Fan martial arts and led him in cultivation...
Xu Fan has never acted impulsively, even if he does, he must have his own internal calculations and trump cards.
Therefore, rushing up now would not only ruin Xu Fan's plan but also make the situation increasingly passive.
Qu Yingliu, Liu Rufeng, and the others, after giving Old Undying a glare, believed his words, but those present believed even more in the scene before them.
Right now, looking at Xu Fan being engulfed by the blood sea, everyone shook their heads, "After all, he's only in the Entering Dao Realm, thinking to fight against a Zhiwei Realm expert is simply wishful thinking!"
"Harden Marquis hasn't even used his full power, he hasn't even unleashed his domain, clearly, he's just torturing Xu Fan!"
...
The old monk fixed his eyes on Xu Fan, hoping to see if Xu Fan would once again release golden light at a critical mont.
The Buddhist relic is always precious, and naturally, there aren't many who can integrate it into their body, and Xu Fan before him is the first in nearly a hundred years!
As for whether Xu Fan would die at the hands of Harden Marquis, the old monk felt sowhat helpless, since this was a wager between two people, and no matter how powerful or reputable the old monk was, he had no right to interfere.
What the old monk was thinking now was to discuss with Old Undying if he could take Xu Fan's body back to study later…
Xu Fan, of course, didn't know that in the eyes of those present, he was already deed a dead man, but even if Xu Fan knew, he didn't have the ti to settle accounts with everyone now, as he was caught in a huge ss in the blood sea!
This blood sea actually had a strong corrosive effect! It continually assaulted Xu Fan's body like sulfuric acid, and even the protective shield of spiritual power he held up outside his body was dimming under the corroding force of the blood sea.
Xu Fan's body didn't have much spiritual power to begin with, and now coupled with the corrosion of the blood sea, he was in an extrely precarious state! Moreover, Xu Fan was just struck in the chest by Harden's punch, as if he had been hit head-on by a speeding train; he now felt as though his entire body was about to break apart!
This was just one move from Harden Marquis, and that too without using his domain!
There were still two fiercer moves waiting for him.
Xu Fan gritted his teeth, desperately channeling the scattered spiritual power within his body.
On this trip to Arica, Xu Fan had faced many dangers, t many friends, and even had friends who, because of him, lay there forever.
For what? Xu Fan had only one goal: to bring Xia Xiaodie back safely.
Now, everyone was watching him from below the stage, everyone's eyes were full of hope, how could Xu Fan allow himself to disappoint them?
In front of Xu Fan, Harden Marquis stood high, clad in a black robe that represented his ancient but Earl status, fluttering in the wind, his gaze towards Xu Fan filled with coldness, hatred, and amusent.
In the cultivation world, blocking soone's path is more grievous than the hatred of killing one's father or taking one's wife! And Xu Fan had killed Harden Marquis's clone, making what was a smooth sailing and water-to-boat path, beco rocky and treacherous.
Even though Harden Marquis's clone was destroyed because it sought to kill Xu Fan first, Harden Marquis didn't care about the cause and effect.
The weaker party angered the stronger one, regardless of the reason, deserves death!
At this mont, Harden Marquis looked at Xu Fan struggling against the blood sea's corrosion with a playful expression, leisurely saying, "I didn't expect that the first move would only make you cough up so blood, it seems I was too gentle..."
Harden Marquis certainly wouldn't kill Xu Fan with one move; after all, Xu Fan was now on the chopping block, at Harden Marquis's rcy, with a full three-move opportunity. Killing Xu Fan in one move would be too wasteful.
"Brat! Next, I'll let you experience what it's like to wish for death over life!"
But Xu Fan's face showed no fear, he even taunted Harden Marquis, "Old bat, are you going to make your move or not?"
Harden Marquis's face turned angry, "Reckless! In that case, just die already!"
As he spoke, Harden Marquis in front of Xu Fan spread his hands, lifting his arms, a terrifying pressure emanating from Harden Marquis, causing the air around Xu Fan to creak under the strain, with invisible giant hands firmly locking him in place.
It was as if he was nailed in mid-air, unable to move at all.
And then, with a light wave of his hand, the blood sea began to shift.
Countless tiny blood snakes, as real as physical objects, with flicking tongues and cold eyes, surged towards Xu Fan from all directions, seemingly endless.
And in the sky, blood-colored vultures appeared, also blotting out the sky, circling Xu Fan.
This move was like a torture, using blood snakes and blood eagles to let Xu Fan suffer the agony of being cut by a thousand blades!
The blood sea never exhausts, and the torture never ends!
