Chapter 254 - 254: Thunderbolt Sword Art
Hiss. Hiss. Hiss.
Dense Sword Qi threads wove into a vast net in the air, frantically coiling around Fang Hong.
Every strand of Sword Qi was incredibly sharp, carrying a world-rending killing intent, and directly collided with his Dragon-Human Body, instantly erupting into dazzling sparks.
The power of this sword formation was astonishing, with Sword Qi flowing and carrying a fierce aura.
If it weren't for Fang Hong's Dragon-Human Body being hard enough, coupled with the Turtle Emperor clan's Golden Body Technique, he would have been torn to pieces by the dense Sword Qi in the first wave of attacks, leaving not even bone fragments.
"A Dragon-Human Body? I didn't expect you to be a Body Cultivator who cultivates the physical body."
"I really can't underestimate you. However, it's a pity that you are ultimately only in the Body Integration Early Stage, and not this old man's opponent."
Grand Elder Hu San's cold voice came from outside the sword formation.
The methods Fang Hong displayed caused Grand Elder Hu San to be secretly surprised. He continuously formed hand Seals, increasing his magical power output to drive the countless Flying Swords within the formation.
Immediately, the Sword Qi threads became even denser than before, leaving almost no gaps, vowing to completely shred Fang Hong into a puddle of blood mist.
Fang Hong dared not be careless. With a thought, he quickly summoned the demon soul banner.
As soon as the demon soul banner appeared, rolling demonic qi surged out, repelling all the Sword Qi attacking from all directions.
Demonic light suddenly erupted, shooting directly towards Grand Elder Hu San outside the formation.
"A Soul Banner. You, an Elder of Holy Land, actually cultivated such an evil spiritual artifact. You are truly audacious and utterly rebellious."
The moment the demonic light landed on Grand Elder Hu San, his mind trembled violently, and the smug look on his face instantly froze, replaced by deep astonishment.
Grand Elder Hu San now suspected whether Fang Hong had concealed his true identity.
The person in front of him, at one moment, displayed strange body refinement secret techniques, and at another, wielded a spiritual artifact. These methods did not look like those of an elder from a reputable sect at all; instead, he resembled an Elder from a demonic sect.
Affected by the demon soul banner, Grand Elder Hu San's magical power circulation immediately became much sluggish, and the power of the Sword Qi in the formation significantly weakened.
He was startled and immediately took out a crimson kasaya, putting it on.
The kasaya unfurled in the wind, instantly radiating golden Buddha light, enveloping him like a golden bell shield.
Wherever the Buddha light reached, the surrounding demonic qi and demonic light were completely isolated. Grand Elder Hu San finally broke free from the suppression of the demon soul banner.
Grand Elder Hu San let out a long breath, his face several times more somber than before.
He realized that the person in front of him possessed strange and unpredictable methods. If he dragged this out any longer, the variables would only increase.
To avoid further complications, Grand Elder Hu San decided to exert his full strength and unleash his strongest magical power to kill the person in front of him with a single blow.
Just then, a dazzling golden light suddenly erupted from the demonic mist, its brilliance even overshadowing the Buddha light.
A lifelike golden Dragon shadow appeared on Fang Hong's right arm, its head held high, Dragon scales shimmering, and Dragon might vast.
The Dragon Fist secret technique was already poised to strike.
"What kind of Aura is this? True Dragon might?" Grand Elder Hu San's old face was horrified, startled by the Aura Fang Hong unleashed.
He quickly condensed a Sword Qi shield in front of him, attempting to block Fang Hong's attack.
But it was already too late.
Fang Hong's Dragon Fist erupted, and the golden Dragon shadow roared out.
The Sword Qi threads around him shattered inch by inch upon contact, and even the sword formation that enveloped the surroundings collapsed and disintegrated in an instant.
Roar.
The roar of a True Dragon resounded all around. Fang Hong transformed into a golden Dragon shadow, striking Grand Elder Hu San's chest with extreme speed.
When the golden light dissipated, Fang Hong's right arm had already pierced through Grand Elder Hu San's chest. Blood gushed out, flowing down his Dragon-scaled arm, a shocking sight.
"Uhh." Grand Elder Hu San's eyes widened, his gaze terrified, his whole body trembling.
"Old man, I just lost two beloved treasures and I'm in a terrible mood. You're just in time for me to vent."
A crazed smile stretched across Fang Hong's lips. He violently pulled back his right arm, blood splattering, and then unleashed a barrage of super-fast punches like a rainstorm.
Bang. Bang. Bang.
Shadows of fists filled the sky, so fast that their trajectory was almost invisible. Grand Elder Hu San was like a sandbag, mercilessly beaten by Fang Hong.
Grand Elder Hu San, already severely injured, was now even more gruesome to behold.
In just a few breaths, Grand Elder Hu San completely lost his Qi. His body had already lost its human form, beaten to death by Fang Hong, and his soul was even extracted by Fang Hong.
"You… you've caused big trouble."
"I am the Grand Elder of Fallen Immortal Sect. Fallen Immortal Sect will soon find out your identity and avenge me."
Grand Elder Hu San's soul was filled with shock and anger. He never expected to encounter a monster today and end up like this.
"I don't care who you are. If you provoke me, then you're out of luck." Fang Hong said expressionlessly, not caring at all.
He directly put Grand Elder Hu San's soul body into a jade bottle spiritual artifact, sealing it with magical power, planning to deal with it later.
Afterward, Fang Hong confiscated all of Grand Elder Hu San's belongings, leaving nothing behind, and then fed his corpse to the demon gourd, refining it into a precious Body Integration-level spirit pill.
Fang Hong let out a long breath. He had been in a bad mood after losing two treasures, but now, after thoroughly beating Grand Elder Hu San, his mood had significantly improved.
Fang Hong raised his hand and struck a magical power into the void. The surrounding space continuously shimmered with golden light.
Eventually, the golden light transformed into a golden chain that fell into Fang Hong's hand.
Fang Hong was delighted. This Void-Locking Chain spiritual treasure was quite good. It was a high-grade spiritual treasure that could seal space, trapping enemies and preventing them from escaping. It was excellent for killing people and seizing goods, doing so silently.
Fang Hong used his escape technique and quickly left Black Abyss Ridge.
This place was relatively close to Fallen Immortal Sect's territory. He had killed a Grand Elder of Fallen Immortal Sect, so he had to leave quickly to avoid being discovered by Fallen Immortal Sect's experts.
…
After continuous travel, in less than a month, Fang Hong returned to Azure Emperor Holy Land.
Returning here, he could feel more at ease. Anyway, no one knew that he had killed Grand Elder Hu San, so he didn't have to worry about Fallen Immortal Sect's retaliation.
Fang Hong sat in a secret room in his Immortal Cave, performing a cruel soul-searching technique on Grand Elder Hu San, reading his memories to see if he could find any valuable information.
"Ahhhh." Grand Elder Hu San's soul screamed incessantly in the secret room.
About half an hour later, Grand Elder Hu San's soul finally quieted down. Fang Hong had finished soul-searching, and his face lit up. He had indeed obtained some good intelligence.
He learned from Grand Elder Hu San's memories about a rather good cultivation technique called Thunderbolt Sword Art, which was the cultivation technique Grand Elder Hu San cultivated and one of Fallen Immortal Sect's top cultivation techniques.
