Life-or-death Crisis, Red Light in the Dark Night

This was a white, transparent porcelain bottle.

About the size of two fingers.

Looking from the outside, there was clearly a crimson liquid visible within the bottle.

Chen Feng's expression shifted, because the moment this bottle appeared, his Nutrient Absorption skill actually trembled once again.

This was a sensation similar to the last time he had touched and absorbed that wisp of Evil God Blood when returning to the place where the demons devoured humans.

This immediately brought a glimmer of anticipation to Chen Feng's eyes. "Last time, even blood diluted to one ten-thousandth directly brought dozens of proficiency points."

"I wonder if this bottle of Evil God Blood, if I can absorb it, might directly allow my Nutrient Absorption skill to evolve once more?"

Chen Feng thought these things to himself.

However, the next moment, his expression shifted.

After this porcelain bottle was taken out, Huang Haisheng let out a sinister laugh and directly took a large gulp of the Evil God Blood.

"My Evil God Blood."

In that instant, Chen Feng's face turned extremely grim, and he thought coldly to himself.

He had already regarded the Evil God Blood as his own possession, never expecting that Huang Lao Si would directly drink a mouthful.

And moreover, right after Huang Lao Si drank the Evil God Blood, the aura on his body directly exploded.

Boom!

It was as if a thunderclap had sounded on flat ground.

Huang Lao Si's cultivation base actually surged in that instant.

Originally, Huang Lao Si had appeared to be just an ordinary person.

But in that brief moment, he directly rose from an ordinary person to the First-Rank Realm.

And that was only the beginning. Huang Lao Si's eyes turned blood-red.

On his exposed skin, streaks of blood-red marks began to appear.

Even his hair turned a bloody red.

"Half-demon!"

"It really was you last time."

Seeing this transformation in Huang Haisheng, Chen Feng's expression darkened as he spoke in a low voice.

Demon!

In the Great Gan Dynasty, every ordinary person knew that once you encountered a demon, you killed without mercy.

Demons absorbed and devoured the souls, flesh, and bodies of martial artists, while martial artists hunted demons.

Only those martial artists who had defected to the demons gathered into forces called the Demon Cult, the followers of the Evil God.

And at this moment, the charging Huang Haisheng finally caught a blurry glimpse of Chen Feng.

He heard Chen Feng's words.

In that instant, the Sha Qi on Huang Haisheng surged even more violently, and he roared madly, "Ahhh, Chen Feng, it's you."

"How could you possibly have such archery skills?"

"Did you obtain the Demon Blade Inheritance?"

In that moment, as Huang Haisheng saw Chen Feng, his expression turned utterly frantic.

He sneered, "So it's you. Killing two birds with one stone!"

"First I'll take you down, then I'll take Lin Xue. How about I make the two of you a pair of star-crossed lovers?"

Huang Haisheng's chilling words made Chen Feng, who had been about to flee, halt in his tracks.

"Three Stars in a Row!"

Chen Feng said coldly.

In that instant, he directly shot three arrows in succession.

And this time, Chen Feng chose to aim at all of Huang Haisheng's heart positions.

However, the arrows had barely been loosed

when they were directly smashed to pieces by a single punch from Huang Haisheng.

Huang Haisheng's eyes held a cold sneer. "With this little power, you can't break through my defenses."

"Kneel before me!"

But what Huang Haisheng hadn't expected was that after smashing the first arrow, two more arrows followed right on its heels.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

Space exploded with sound.

This time, Huang Haisheng's face was pale, and he only managed to barely shift his vitals aside.

The next moment, two arrows pierced straight through his arm.

Pfft!

A mouthful of blood sprayed out.

Huang Haisheng's expression shifted as well.

In that instant, his left arm was completely crippled.

Chen Feng stared at Huang Haisheng, a cold smile on his face.

"Is that all you've got?"

Huang Haisheng's aura seemed terrifying.

But clearly, he couldn't block Chen Feng's arrows.

If he just retreated, kept his distance, he could kite and kill this Huang Haisheng.

However, his speed was vastly inferior to Huang Haisheng's.

And in that moment, after being severely wounded, Huang Haisheng's face twisted with madness as he roared, "Again!"

Then he pulled out the remaining half-bottle of Evil God Blood.

And downed it in one gulp.

Immediately, the aura on Huang Haisheng's body surged wildly.

It seemed to suddenly break through a barrier.

"Fourth rank?" Chen Feng said with a grim expression.

Now Huang Haisheng, though still within range of his arrows, had his speed and power skyrocket.

Another Three Stars in a Row attack.

Was broken by Huang Haisheng trading injury for injury.

Then, as Chen Feng barely reacted, Huang Haisheng had already charged in front of him, bellowing, "Kneel!"

With a shout, he swung a palm down at Chen Feng.

Chen Feng's face was grim, but he didn't hesitate.

He shouted coldly, "Iron Fist Technique!"

"Superhuman Arm Strength!"

The moment his fist shot out, he directly activated the Superhuman Arm Strength talent.

His entire power instantly doubled.

Boom!

Then it barely collided with Huang Haisheng's attack.

Amid the thunderous noise, With overwhelming force, Chen Feng's attack was shattered.

He was sent flying.

With a thud, he landed on one knee.

His face pale, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Such power!"

Chen Feng's expression darkened.

This strength completely surpassed his current level.

Watching Huang Haisheng stand up and charge again, Chen Feng's face was grim.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

His speed wasn't slow, and with the Stealth skill's concealment, In this darkness, as long as he entered the woods or shadows, he had a chance to shake off Huang Haisheng.

Then, using Three Stars in a Row, he could shoot him down.

With that in mind, he decided not to linger.

He prepared to turn and flee.

Huang Haisheng watched Chen Feng, who got up as lively as ever, and his face showed some surprise. "At most first rank, and you're not dead?"

He was genuinely shocked.

In just a short time, a hint of greed even crept into his expression. "Your physical strength and bone power surpass ordinary people—you're a martial artist who has awakened a talent."

"How did you awaken? Tell me everything you know, and I'll grant you a quick death."

Huang Haisheng continued pursuing Chen Feng.

He never once considered the possibility that Chen Feng might still escape.

In his view, Chen Feng was now a lamb awaiting slaughter, completely under his control.

A cold sneer curled on Chen Feng's face.

He was about to speak, but in that instant, a whistling sound tore through the night.

Shing!

"Not good!"

In that moment, a streak of red light cut across the darkness.

It slammed directly into Huang Haisheng.

Huang Haisheng was blasted away, a mouthful of blood spraying from his lips.

His face turned pale and panicked. "A Flying Sword? The Demon Patrol Division!"

His voice even twisted with fear.

He spun around and fled into the distance.

The porcelain vial of Evil God Blood, which he had been drinking cautiously, he now gulped down recklessly without restraint.

"Ahhh!"

Amid screams of agony.

Huang Haisheng's body began to mutate on the spot.

In an instant, his frame stretched into an unnaturally gaunt shape.

He stomped the ground.

His speed multiplied several times in a flash.

He plunged into the darkness.

A Sword Qi shot after him into the dark, and a scream echoed through the night.

Then silence fell.

Chen Feng watched the scene unfold, his expression flickering with uncertainty.

"What just happened?"

"The Demon Patrol Division?"

He had been about to flee outright, but now he stayed rooted in place, not daring to move recklessly.

Especially that streak of red light that had torn through the night—it still left him shaken.

Relying on his evolved Hundred-Step Piercing Willow talent, he could barely make out some details.
