The ruthless methods of the Blood Ray Demon Lord were fully visible to Lin Fan, who knew that this demon lord was the most ferocious of all the fiends he had encountered.
A powerful figure even a thousand years ago, after a thousand years had passed, how profound had his cultivation foundation become?
Among the recently emerged experts, there were no lack of those at the eighth Heaven Realm of Divine Pillar Stage.
Yet in the hands of the Blood Ray Demon Lord, they were like mere ants.
Among the eighth Heaven Realm of Divine Pillar Stage experts, the sect leader of Yun Sect was considered formidable. But against the Blood Ray Demon Lord, he probably wouldn’t survive a single move.
“This is going to be tough.”
In an instant, Lin Fan’s heart trembled. The Blood Ray Demon Lord, hidden beneath his mask, fixed his gaze upon Lin Fan. Those eyes were like a surging sea of blood, within which countless souls of powerful beings suffered torment, screaming in agony.
“Blood Ray Demon Lord, I’m not feeling too well today. Can we reschedule our fight?” Lin Fan wasn’t eager to confront such a monster.
The Blood Ray Demon Lord, at the ninth Heaven Realm of Eight Trigrams Unification Stage, wielded power capable of enveloping the Eight Trigrams—he was no ordinary opponent.
“Human Emperor, you’ve stirred up chaos here, interfering with my master’s grand plan.”
“Die!”
With a flash of murderous intent, the Blood Ray Demon Lord said nothing more. Two beams of red light shot from his eyes like swords.
“What the hell, Blood Ray Demon Lord! Don’t get too cocky. When I go berserk, even I scare myself.” Lin Fan usually preferred to fight without hesitation, but now the Blood Ray Demon Lord was even more arrogant than him—it was simply intolerable.
Lin Fan’s figure flickered, his entire body exploding outward. Countless techniques were instantly unleashed. A palm could cover the sky, a fist could shake the earth. After unifying all techniques into one, he could wield any skill effortlessly, without flaw.
“Blood Ray Annihilation Sword!”
The Blood Ray Demon Lord pointed a finger, and a drop of blood shot forth. Instantly transforming into a red sword, it slashed forward, causing ghosts to wail and gods to weep. The sea of blood surged, cleaving the entire heavens and earth in two.
“Great! Today, I’ll match you blow for blow.” Knowing retreat was impossible, Lin Fan instantly fused the nine layers of Heaven Sword’s sword intent. A single point of light condensed at his fingertip.
“The ultimate sword path governs all under heaven and earth.”
The nine layers of sword intent encompassed everything in heaven and earth, embodying all of Lin Fan’s cultivation insights. As he slashed forward, dazzling light radiated outward.
Boom!
A thunderous roar erupted. Lin Fan was forced backward dozens of miles. A gash had been carved across his chest by the Blood Ray Demon Lord’s sword.
Blood surged violently along the wound, the sharp blood rays tearing at Lin Fan’s body.
Suddenly, a red glow surged from Lin Fan’s body. The Blood Sea Cultivation Technique instantly activated, dispelling the blood rays.
“Extremely powerful—this is a crushing defeat in terms of sheer strength. Although my cultivation level is only at the seventh Heaven Realm of Divine Pillar Stage, my profound energy rivals that of the ninth Heaven Realm. Yet against the Blood Ray Demon Lord, I still suffered greatly. Just how strong is he?”
Except for the Eight Supreme Beings of the Ancient Race, Lin Fan had never regarded any other great race cultivator as a threat. Yet now, the Blood Ray Demon Lord had dealt him a serious blow, forcing Lin Fan to take him seriously.
His ability to defeat opponents beyond his level didn’t mean the great races lacked such talents.
The Water-Fire Emperor, who had suppressed the Ancient Race’s Supreme Beings, was a genius of extraordinary caliber. The Blood Ray Demon Lord was clearly another such prodigy.
His cultivation was deep and unfathomable.
“Human Emperor, you’re indeed strong. But to me, you’re nothing but a dead dog. The Ancient Race Supreme Being Jie Guo was truly weak, easily outmaneuvered by you, even losing one of his soul avatars.”
“What are you blabbering about? Even if I were a dead dog, you’d still die by this dead dog’s hands!” Lin Fan roared furiously. From his body, a ten-thousand-zhang dragon shot forth.
The dragon’s roar transformed into the Eightfold Heavenly Dragon Sounds, an unstoppable thunderous resonance reverberating through the void.
“Hmph, the Eightfold Heavenly Dragon Sounds? How presumptuous.” The Blood Ray Demon Lord sneered. Suddenly, a sharp sound erupted from his mouth.
Boom!
The ten-thousand-zhang dragon instantly shattered into fragments, returning to Lin Fan’s inner world.
“Feitian!”
Lin Fan’s steps moved like a dragon. Empowered by his inner world, an ocean of techniques surged toward the Blood Ray Demon Lord.
Whoosh!
Feitian shot into the sky, twisting in midair. In an instant, it appeared behind the Blood Ray Demon Lord, piercing toward his body.
Clang!
A giant blood-colored hand suddenly appeared, seizing Feitian.
“Hmph, a mere Dao artifact dares to provoke me? Truly seeking death.” The Blood Ray Demon Lord laughed coldly.
“Not good!” Lin Fan hadn’t expected the Blood Ray Demon Lord to be this formidable—Feitian, a master of stealth attacks, had still been detected.
What alarmed Lin Fan even more was that the two spirit guardians within Feitian were being bombarded by the Blood Ray Demon Lord’s immense power.
“Holy Yang Pills, burn!”
Without hesitation, Lin Fan burned two hundred million Holy Yang Pills. This enormous fortune, when ignited, was enough to send Feitian into a complete frenzy.
At this moment, the Blood Ray Demon Lord’s eyebrows furrowed. He spun Feitian rapidly in his hand, unleashing a massive force from it.
Bang!
The Blood Ray Demon Lord’s palm exploded instantly, and Feitian seized the chance to escape.
“Hmph, burning Holy Yang Pills. Seems you do have some tricks.” The Blood Ray Demon Lord sneered. His exploded hand quickly regenerated.
“I’ve got plenty of tricks. You’re as good as dead.” Lin Fan grew serious. This was his first time engaging a supreme expert head-on.
Though the Blood Ray Demon Lord was only at the ninth Heaven Realm of Eight Trigrams Unification Stage, he was undoubtedly comparable to a tenth Heaven Realm Eternal God Stage expert.
“Amitabha, cultivator, I’ve finally found you. How did you end up sealed by the Blood Sea?” At that moment, a small entrance opened within the vast blood sea seal.
Buddha light flashed as the Shakyamuni Sage arrived, like the Tathagata descending from the Western Paradise.
“Bald monk, this is the Blood Ray Demon Lord. Why the hell aren’t you running?” Lin Fan hadn’t expected this monk to actually catch up.
“Buddhist race.” The Blood Ray Demon Lord’s eyes flared with a murderous gleam upon seeing the newcomer, as if harboring boundless hatred toward the Buddhist race.
“What? Blood Ray Demon Lord?” The Shakyamuni Sage still hadn’t grasped the situation. Upon hearing Lin Fan’s words, his heart jolted, his usually serene face turning pale.
“Cultivator, I’ll take my leave now. Blood Ray Master, please continue.” Without hesitation, the Shakyamuni Sage turned and fled, vanishing in an instant.
“What the hell!” Seeing this, Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. This baldy ran faster than anyone he’d ever seen—previously impossible to chase away, now he’d bolted at the mere mention of the Blood Ray Demon Lord’s name.
“Die!”
The Blood Ray Demon Lord’s fury erupted as he charged toward Lin Fan.
“Pfft! Who dies isn’t decided yet!” Abandoning all thoughts, Lin Fan focused entirely on battling the Blood Ray Demon Lord.
…
The Shakyamuni Sage dashed away, his heart pounding wildly.
“I never thought the Blood Ray Demon Lord was still alive. How is that possible?” The Sage couldn’t believe his eyes. A thousand years ago, he hadn’t even been born yet, but he had read the records afterward.
The Blood Ray Demon Lord was a reclusive demon. Three Buddha Sages had once besieged him, but he had slain one of them. That was a major event for the Buddhist race.
Each Buddha Sage was a pillar of the Buddhist race. Losing one was an immense loss.
“Lin Cultivator is doomed. He’s definitely going to be killed.” The Shakyamuni Sage pondered as he fled.
“What should I do?” His expression wavered, uncertain what to do.
Facing such a terrifying demon, death was practically inevitable. No matter how many reinforcements arrived, it would be useless.
“This…” The Shakyamuni Sage halted, gazing at the distant blood sea. Finally, he gritted his teeth.
“Damn it, if it’s death, then so be it.”
