Facing Death (Bonus Chapter for Heavenly Demon Bifang)

Wanyan Bo struck first. A layer of pale golden radiance flickered across the surface of the Blue Gold Roc Claw, like summer sunlight, gradually rippling into a tangible aura.

Aside from the power of his bloodline, what he had always excelled at was the Demon Claw Gate's Claw Technique, which had itself been comprehended from the Blue Gold Roc Claw.

Thus, the two complemented one another perfectly. Once unleashed, even without drawing upon spiritual qi through his primordial spirit, it still swept forth like a storm, claw shadows layering upon claw shadows, its force razor-sharp as it attacked Old Man of Snow Ridge Mountain with the fearless momentum of tearing apart the heavens.

This strike represented the pinnacle of Wanyan Bo's life's martial arts. His eyes grew ever more brilliant. Though he knew it was no more than a moth flying into the flame, he had no regrets. In the brief gap between movements, he even glanced at Xiang Yang, as if asking, What do you think of this move of mine?

Regardless of Wanyan Bo's identity as a grassland outsider, regardless of how many wrongs he had committed in the past, whether his crimes were so countless that not even all the bamboo in the world could record them—

Speaking only of martial arts, he was a true warrior, a pure warrior. Divine Beast Blood flowed through his veins, yet even it was not as noble as his will.

The strong had never been measured by the power of their bodies, but by their souls. Thus, although Chu Canglan's martial arts stood at the peak of the Innate realm, he was merely an expert, not a true powerhouse.

Not only was Wanyan Bo formidable in martial arts, his soul and will were also among the strongest of the strong.
