"Hmph, what a bizarre sight!"
Xu Sanyan let out a cold snort. As the light screen dissipated, a fierce attack followed immediately. His four arms clenched into fists, resembling a mighty arhat, and the sharp gusts of his punches compressed the air, producing a piercing screech.
"Bring it on!"
The Red Sea Twin Immortals parted their slightly protruding lips, revealing a slender tongue that shot like an arrow straight toward Xu Sanyan's neck.
Emperor Qi, standing nearby, struggled to his feet, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with fear.
In the midst of the battlefield, the battle between the two monsters was exceptionally intense. Emperor Qi's heart tightened as he realized that Xu Sanyan was actually holding his own against the Red Sea Twin Immortals.
Xu Sanyan's pupils slightly contracted. As he sidestepped, his hand grabbed the tongue and yanked it forcefully. Seeing the situation turn dire, the Red Sea Twin Immortals raised their swords and severed their own tongue.
Xu Sanyan crushed the tongue in his hand and pressed forward with his assault.
The Red Sea Twin Immortals bent their knees slightly and, with a burst of strength, leaped into the air. Their massive bodies resembled a flying toad as they descended from above, their swords glowing with a green light.
Xu Sanyan hadn't expected such agility from their seemingly cumbersome forms. He immediately became cautious, narrowing his eyes as he swung a massive fist upward, the fist radiating a bloody light.
The two collided mid-air, and for a moment, time seemed to stand still. Everyone's gaze was involuntarily drawn to the scene.
Xu Sanyan's eyes were bloodshot as he channeled all his Spiritual Power into his fist.
The Red Sea Twin Immortals gritted their teeth, enduring the pressure, and the green light on their swords grew even brighter.
As the two lights intensified, they finally reached a critical point and exploded with a deafening roar!
"Boom!"
A massive shockwave of Spiritual Power spread out, causing many soldiers to lose their balance and fall to the ground.
The once exquisite pavilion was swept by the shockwave, instantly collapsing into a pile of rubble.
The Red Sea Twin Immortals were sent flying backward at an even greater speed, landing far away in the water, while Xu Sanyan, bearing the brunt of the impact, was slammed heavily into the ground.
The ground caved in, and Xu Sanyan was buried beneath the stone bricks, his figure obscured by the thick dust that filled the air. No one could tell what had happened.
Emperor Qi was also knocked over by the shockwave, lying on the ground in awe. Such power far surpassed his own, and he couldn't help but laugh at the thought that he had once believed he could compete with Xu Sanyan.
Among the crowd, the Blood Demon and the Ferocious Demon stood motionless. Without the support of Spiritual Power, they were nothing more than lifeless objects.
"Is he... dead?" someone asked hesitantly as they got up.
"I don't know..."
Emperor Qi was helped to his feet and summoned a general. "Take a few men and go check."
The general hesitated but dared not disobey. "Yes, Your Majesty."
All eyes were on the group as they ventured into the dust. Moments later, the general's voice emerged from the haze, "Your Majesty... it seems he's dead..."
Just as Emperor Qi was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a terrified scream echoed in his ears.
"No!!"
The general's sharp cry came from the dust again, "He's not dead! He's alive!"
"Ah!"
After a series of screams, the dust settled once more. Emperor Qi's expression tightened as he was about to issue another order. But as the dust gradually cleared, a crimson figure emerged.
Four arms each held a person, three of whom had already turned into desiccated corpses.
The fourth person, the general, was grabbed by Xu Sanyan by the head and brought to his mouth. Sharp fangs pierced the neck, and the general's body visibly withered, all his essence drained away.
As the general's corpse withered, Xu Sanyan felt his own essence replenish, and the injuries on his body slowly healed.
This was the ability Xu Sanyan gained from establishing his Dao Foundation with a Heavenly Earth Treasure, perfectly inheriting the effects of the Blood-Red Dagger.
"Monster..."
The eyes of all the soldiers turned to fear. It wasn't that they were cowardly; these soldiers were battle-hardened veterans who had just returned from the front lines, known for their tenacity.
But fighting against such an inhuman monster was truly terrifying.
Xu Sanyan casually discarded the four withered corpses, his crimson eyes scanning the surroundings as if choosing his next target.
The soldiers caught in his gaze all stepped back in fear, some even collapsing to the ground, unable to withstand the immense pressure emanating from him.
Xu Sanyan had just clashed with the Red Sea Twin Immortals, sustaining serious injuries, especially from the fall from a great height, which caused severe internal damage.
But after draining the four corpses, his injuries had improved significantly. Although his Spiritual Power was nearly depleted, he was confident he could fight his way out with just his physical strength.
Splash!
At that moment, two figures flew out from the lake—the Red Sea Twin Immortals. They had now separated from their combined state and stood on the ruins of the pavilion, looking disheveled and pale, clearly not in good shape.
Xu Sanyan deactivated his Dao Foundation form, returning to his human form. Maintaining that state consumed too much Spiritual Power, and he was on the verge of collapse.
Emperor Qi's eyes flickered. He knew that the three of them were at their limits, and this was the perfect opportunity to eliminate them. "All generals, hear my command! Capture Xu Sanyan alive! Whoever captures him will be rewarded with ten thousand gold and granted the title of Marquis with a fief of ten thousand households, hereditary and unending!"
The temptation of the immortal opportunity was too great. Emperor Qi had no intention of sharing it with others, so he planned to eliminate the Red Sea Twin Immortals as well.
But first, he needed to capture Xu Sanyan alive before dealing with the Red Sea Twin Immortals, lest they join forces.
The generals hesitated, still shaken by the horrifying scene they had just witnessed.
Emperor Qi snorted coldly, "Those who cower in fear will have their entire families exterminated!"
Under the dual pressure of reward and punishment, many generals began to force their soldiers to charge.
Xu Sanyan's face was slightly pale. Although his injuries had partially healed, they were not fully recovered and still affected him.
"Kill!"
Someone shouted to bolster their courage, brandishing a long sword and charging forward.
Xu Sanyan, naked and covered in blood, twisted his wrist, and a long sword flew into his hand. He dashed into the crowd, instantly taking the lives of seven or eight people.
Even without using his Spiritual Power, Xu Sanyan's physical strength far surpassed that of an ordinary person.
After being strengthened by the Blood-Red Dagger for a long time and further enhanced during his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, his body had become as tough as refined iron.
Ordinary swords and blades could hardly leave a mark on him, so he had no fear of being overwhelmed by numbers.
Not far away, the Red Sea Twin Immortals exchanged a glance, took out a porcelain bottle from their robes, and swallowed two elixirs. They then sat cross-legged and began to meditate.
As Xu Sanyan began to move, the previously motionless Blood Demon and Blood Demon also sprang into action, charging toward Emperor Qi's direction.
Emperor Qi's expression changed drastically. As he ran backward, he shouted frantically, "Stop them at once!"
His personal guards charged forward without regard for their own lives, using their bodies as a shield for Emperor Qi.
Xu Sanyan narrowed his eyes, exerted force with his legs, and soared into the air like a great bird, swiftly bypassing the numerous soldiers blocking his path and charging straight toward Emperor Qi.
