A Long-Awaited Killing Spree

"Call----!"

In one of the corridors of the Starry Sky Palace, a figure swept past like a gust of wind, carrying the whistling sound of the wind, and moved through the space at an astonishing speed.

As Fang Li sped through the corridors of the Starry Sky Palace, his gaze fixed straight ahead, his mind racing.

For Fang Li, the first challenge in escaping Starry Sky Palace was finding a way out.

Otherwise, they'll just be stuck in the Starry Sky Palace, never able to leave.

As for breaking through the ceiling to escape like we just did, that's definitely not going to work.

After all, Starry Sky Palace is a mobile fortress, surrounded by a barrier, containing not only a castle but also a vast expanse of land.

There must be many Crimson Realm Denizens guarding that place.

If they were to rush directly out from the sky, they would surely be overwhelmed by the army that was surrounding them from all sides.

"So, the first thing we need to do is find a way out."

This is not difficult.

No matter where it is, there will always be wind blowing in from outside.

Based on the feel of the air, the strength of the wind, and even the sensation of airflow, one can determine where the road leads to the outside sky, even without knowing the terrain.

This is knowledge I learned in the Armed Detective High School, used for escaping when trapped in enclosed terrain or when imprisoned by criminals.

Under these circumstances, Fang Li closed his eyes slightly while sensing the changes in the surrounding airflow.

Immediately, a simple route map gradually formed in Fang Li's mind.

"Over here!"

The next second, without opening his eyes, Fang Li suddenly turned and leaped into the corridor beside him, continuing to run through it at a speed like the wind.

Along the way, Fang Li encountered many forks in the road.

However, every time he encountered a fork in the road, Fang Li would choose the side with the more obvious airflow without hesitation, still running wildly through the corridors without even opening his eyes.

If this trend continues, Fang Li will eventually find an entrance to the outside world.

If the enemy does not discover Fang Li.

"————!"

At one point, Fang Li suddenly opened his eyes.

Suddenly, strange creatures appeared from all directions in front of the corridor, like soldiers patrolling the castle, armed with weapons, and spotted Fang Li rushing towards Fang Li.

These strange creatures, some resembling humans and others beasts, emanated a faint but numerous aura.

It was none other than the phosphorus created by the Crimson Realm Denizens of the "Bal Masqué".

Upon discovering the phosphorus particles in the Fang Li, they cried out in succession.

"There it is!"

"Humans!"

"Stop right there!"

"Grab him!"

Whether they resembled humans or beasts, the phosphorescent creatures all glared fiercely at Fang Li as he charged forward, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced.

Fang Li's affairs were not uncommon among the "Bal Masqué" members; only some high-ranking officials and related personnel knew of his existence.

As for the other members, they only knew that one human was imprisoned deep within the Starry Sky Palace, and nothing else.

Given this, it's impossible for these phosphorescent creatures, who are used as servants and helpers for convenience, to know Fang Li's abilities.

To these phosphorescent creatures, the humans before them were merely food they couldn't eat, otherwise they would have trouble explaining themselves to their master.

Naturally, no phosphorus particle would think it couldn't do anything to a human.

Because of this, these poor phosphorus particles had no idea what a terrifying existence they were about to face.

As a swarm of phosphorescent creatures lunged toward him, baring their fangs and claws, Fang Li sighed, his eyes suddenly turning cold.

"Bang—!"

Amidst the cracking sound of the air, Fang Li shattered the ground, his figure transforming into a blur as he charged forward.

The sharp dagger was already in his hand.

The cold, Magic Eye had already been revealed.

"It's been a long time since I've gone on a killing spree..."

With this emotionless murmur, Fang Li charged Fang Li, heading straight for the oncoming phosphorus army.

"Flash Sheath - Eight Point Rush!"

Countless flashes of sword light appeared Fang Li.

"Pfft—Pfft—Pfft—!"

Like a gust of wind carrying sharp blades rushing into the crowd, the Oni figure swept directly towards the surging army of phosphorus, the dagger transforming into countless slashes, cutting all the attacking phosphorus in half amidst the sound of flesh being torn apart.

"Varied...?!"

"No...!"

"Ah...!"

Screams began to echo through the crowd.

Accompanying this was the flames, which, representing the dissipation of the Power of Existence, splattered like blood.

Fang Li charged straight into the crowd, his pair of Ice-Blue Demon Eyes swirling, taking in the Death Lines of each phosphorus particle around him. The Moon Blade in his hand transformed into thousands of blades of light, constantly appearing around Fang Li and slashing in all Fang Li, landing on each phosphorus particle.

"Pfft—Pfft—Pfft—!"

The sound of sharp blades piercing flesh echoed incessantly.

"Aaaaaaaahh...

The screams of the phosphorus swarms echoed incessantly.

All the phosphorus particles that approached Fang Li were easily severed in two like paper by a high-speed slash that was impossible to detect with the naked eye. They screamed and turned into a pile of limbs and remains, accompanied by flames that splattered instead of blood.

That scene was like a meat grinder crashing into the crowd.

If it weren't for the fact that neither the Apostles nor Phosphorus bleed, but only emit flames representing the Power of Existence of blood, this place would have long since become a bloody hell.

Despite this, Fang Li's speed did not decrease at all. He continued to rush forward like a whirlwind, unleashing countless blades of light to kill all the phosphorescent creatures blocking his path.

"Bang—!"

Before long, wherever Fang Li went, the ground was piled with the remains of Phosphorus, which burned like flames, turned to ashes, and vanished into nothingness.

The phosphorescent particles, baring their fangs and claws, lunged at Fang Li. Those who had survived a little longer, having barely gotten close to Fang Li, watched this scene in shock.

"No... impossible!"

"A human being...!"

"This... how is this possible?!"

However, the one-sided massacre that unfolded before everyone's eyes revealed the reality they faced to all the Rinko present.

As Fang Li charged forward at an alarming speed, his Ice-Blue Demon Eyes wide open, breaking through the encirclement, a group of phosphorescent beings cried out in alarm.

"Owner!"

"Quickly, notify the master to come here!"

"This human... this human...!"

"No!"

Amidst cries of terror and despair, not a single phosphorus spore survived.

Fang Li dashed out of the corridor as if kicking away a pebble in his way.
