Flame-Winged Monkey Advances a Rank

Dongyang Wei was the first to attack Gongsun Haoyue. A sword of essence appeared in her hand, and with a sweep of the blade, she spun up a flower of sword energy.

Then blood rain began to fall from the sky, accompanied by waves of strange fragrance.

The blood rain was formed from Dongyang Wei's scarlet essence. As long as even one droplet struck someone, it would seep in through the skin and trigger a violent disturbance in the essence within their body.

At the same time, the strange fragrance could bewitch the mind and cause people to lose themselves.

This move was vicious beyond measure. One careless moment was all it took to fall victim to it.

This was Dongyang Wei's signature technique—Blood Rain Fragrance.

Gongsun Haoyue curled the corner of her lips and swung the Skyfire Staff repeatedly. Tiny sparks appeared one after another, catching the scattered blood rain.

When the sparks touched the blood rain, they immediately produced a faint sizzling sound. Then both the blood rain and the sparks vanished together.

Seeing that Dongyang Wei had already made her move, Dongyang Cheng condensed scarlet essence around the great saber in his hand.

Gripping the saber, he rushed straight at Jiang Liu and viciously hacked down.

Jiang Liu swung his own saber and met Dongyang Cheng head-on. "Clang!" The two figures immediately retreated in opposite directions. Clearly, neither had gained the upper hand in that clash.

The two of them did not stop. They continued to engage in a fierce saber exchange.

Both knew that those flashy attack techniques were completely useless under the probing of their equally matched spiritual power.

Now that they were fighting head-on, the contest was over who had greater reserves of essence, as well as who could use spiritual power more skillfully.
