Wang Xuan's pupils shrank, and he cried out in horror!

Apart from fear, his heart was filled with confusion!

This guy was clearly a human, so how did he suddenly turn into a demon!

"Run!"

Wang Xuan grabbed his bow and hunting knife and took off.

This demon's strength clearly far exceeded the Cowhide level, having already reached the Iron Skin level!

There was absolutely no way he could deal with it!

Activating the Fleetfoot effect, Wang Xuan leaped ten meters in a single bound. In just a few seconds, he had put dozens of meters between himself and the demon!

Roar!

The Bloodfiend Demon's scarlet eyes instantly locked onto Wang Xuan. It roared from its throat, and in that moment, it chased after him like a streak of blood!

Its speed was extremely fast, not much slower than Wang Xuan's.

You are running in the mountains, Fleetfoot experience +5 Fleetfoot experience +5

As Wang Xuan frantically fled, his Fleetfoot experience was rapidly increasing, but he felt no joy at all.

"Damn it, why did this guy turn into a demon!"

"And it had to happen when I had so little stamina left!"

Wang Xuan was distraught.

He had just practiced the Mountain Severing Saber Art for two and a half hours, and his stamina was less than 30%. Meanwhile, the demon behind him was incredibly violent and would definitely keep chasing him!

"I have to find a way to shake it off!"

"I can't go back to the village, or my sister-in-law and the villagers will suffer. There are martial arts schools in town, I'll head in that direction!"

After a moment of thought, Wang Xuan immediately made a decision.

Blackwind Mountain was very large, and he could reach Whitestone Town by following the outer edge.

The Bloodfiend Demon wildly chased after Wang Xuan, roaring and howling incessantly, echoing through the mountains and forests, alarming many wild beasts.

"Kill... die!"

"Eat... eat you!"

Bloodfiend Demonic Qi swept out from the Bloodfiend Demon's body, as terrifying as a plague!

Wherever it passed, weeds withered and trees rotted!

Boom—

The Bloodfiend Demon was incredibly strong. It grabbed a rock weighing several hundred pounds and smashed it directly at Wang Xuan!

Hearing the whistling wind, Wang Xuan immediately dodged, avoiding the boulder's attack.

"That was close, I almost got hit!"

Wang Xuan's eyelids twitched.

Fortunately, he had Insightful Perception, coupled with Fleetfoot, allowing him to quickly evade the attack!

Without the help of these two skills, being hit by that would have resulted in serious injury, if not death!

Missing its target, the Bloodfiend Demon behind him became even more manic, constantly throwing rocks, tree trunks, and other objects at Wang Xuan!

Wang Xuan weaved and dodged through the dense forest, constantly avoiding the Bloodfiend Demon's attacks.

The two chased each other, quickly covering more than ten miles.

"This damn thing!"

"It's still chasing me!"

Wang Xuan was drenched in sweat, his face pale.

His stamina was almost completely exhausted, and his running speed had decreased. The distance between him and the demon was getting closer and closer, now less than twenty meters.

"Damn it, am I going to die here!"

Wang Xuan roared.

"I'll risk it!"

He leaped up, and in mid-air, he instantly grabbed three arrows!

Triple Star Shot!

Thousand Shadows!

Boom—

Nine arrows shot out, enough to seriously injure a Stone Skin level martial artist!

However!

The Blood-colored Demon roared, its massive, millstone-sized hand slamming down, easily shattering all nine arrows into dust.

Wang Xuan's eyelids twitched, instantly losing any thought of fighting to the death!

And in the moment he released that arrow, the Blood-colored Demon suddenly exploded with speed, its millstone-sized palm slamming down directly.

Boom!

Wang Xuan narrowly avoided the blow.

But the ground, because of this slap, was directly smashed into pieces, exploding into a deep pit!

Wang Xuan landed and turned to flee.

[Sprint experience +10] [Your Sprint skill has broken through, greatly increasing speed, the effect of Featherlight Body has increased by 50%, Minor Accomplishment progress 1/400] [Gained one attribute point, current attribute points: 6]

The notification sound of the Crimson panel rang out at this moment.

Wang Xuan only felt the weakness in his body lessen by thirty percent, and at the same time, his body became lighter.

He stomped down hard, and in one step, he instantly leaped out more than ten meters!

"That was close!"

"I almost thought I was done for!"

Wang Xuan was overjoyed.

The distance that had been closing with the demon was now widened again.

More than ten kilometers away from Wang Xuan.

A dozen people wearing standardized armor were searching for something in the mountains and forests.

Each of them was strong and sturdy, their Blood Essence surging.

They were clearly martial artists from the army.

Leading them was a young man in his early twenties.

His eyes were like lightning, his body glowed, and with every dragon-like stride, the Blood Essence within him roared like thunder. His aura was even stronger than the others, likely already at the Iron Skin Realm!

At this moment, he was holding a bronze-colored object similar to a compass, with a rotating pointer on it.

Suddenly.

The pointer stopped, pointing in a certain direction.

"Hmm, the demonic Qi is coming from that direction!"

"Let's go!"

The man looked at the direction the pointer was indicating on the compass, a glint flashing in his eyes.

With a command, the group immediately rushed towards the direction indicated by the pointer, and the direction they were heading was exactly where Wang Xuan and the demon were!

The demon behind him continued to pursue, and Wang Xuan, relying on the speed of Sprint, temporarily kept his distance.

But as time passed, Wang Xuan's stamina was finally exhausted.

Boom!

Wang Xuan had just taken a breath when the Blood-colored Demon slammed down with its palm from behind, directly smashing a large tree into dust in mid-air!

Wang Xuan dodged with a somersault, his face extremely ugly.

"This damn thing, doesn't it feel tired!"

After chasing for thirty or forty kilometers.

He was already exhausted, relying entirely on a single breath to hold on!

But this Blood-colored Demon showed no signs of fatigue.

Boom!

Just as he dodged, the Blood-colored Demon pounced again, and Wang Xuan immediately raised his hunting knife.

"Mountain Severing Saber Art!"

"Wave Severance!"

He unleashed a strike with all his might!

The fierce and violent saber Qi instantly burst forth!

However!

The demon's large hand slammed down, and the saber Qi instantly shattered and exploded, then the palm heavily struck Wang Xuan's body.

"Puh!"

Wang Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood, as if struck by lightning, and was directly sent flying by the palm, slamming heavily into a tree trunk.

"I... damn, that really hurts!"

Wang Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if all the bones in his body had been snapped, causing his face to contort in pain.

He endured the agony and struggled to his feet, sprinting with all his might, but the Bloodfiend Demonic Qi pounced again after injuring Wang Xuan with a single blow.

Boom—

The ancient trees and massive rocks in the forest were directly smashed into powder by the terrifying strength of the Bloodfiend Demonic Qi, while Wang Xuan dodged clumsily, his injuries worsening.

"I absolutely can't die!"

"I need to become stronger, I need to become stronger!"

Wang Xuan suppressed the excruciating pain and fled, his heart filled with unwillingness!

Just then, a voice suddenly echoed through the dense forest.

"Sir, he's here!"

As the voice faded, more than a dozen figures appeared before Wang Xuan!

Seeing the man at the head, Wang Xuan's expression changed: "Big Brother Chen Feng!"

"Little Stone!"

The man also saw Wang Xuan and couldn't help but be surprised.

This man was called Chen Feng, the son of Chen Shan.

He and Wang Xuan had grown up together naked, but two years ago, he had joined the army in the county town and only returned occasionally.

"Sir, it's a demonic member of the Pity Life Sect!"

One of the men saw the Bloodfiend Demonic Qi and his face suddenly changed.

Chen Feng's face was full of murderous intent as he said, "Leave one person to take care of him, the rest of you, follow me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Feng strode forward!

The Blood Essence around him surged and roared, emitting thunderous sounds!

He drew a specially made broadsword from his back and directly charged forward, while the other soldiers who followed also attacked the demonic entity.

"Little brother, are you alright!"

A man came to Wang Xuan's side, helped him up, and asked.

Wang Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "I'm fine, I was just hit."

"That's good, you should rest well on the side."

Seeing that Wang Xuan was not seriously injured, the man didn't exchange many pleasantries and immediately joined the attack.

Wang Xuan retreated to the side and watched, his brow furrowing slightly.

"It's been two years, and Chen Feng has actually become a martial artist, and judging by the looks of it, he should have reached the Iron Skin level!"

Chen Feng's entry into the army in the county town was Chen Shan's forced request. At the time, Chen Feng was unwilling, but now, after two years, he had become a martial artist.

Moreover, judging by the looks of it, his status should not be low.

He even had more than a dozen people under his command.

"Although Chen Feng is at the Iron Skin level, the others are all at the Oxhide level, and there are even a few ordinary people!"

"They... I'm afraid they can't deal with this guy!"

Wang Xuan watched from the sidelines and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

After Hou Feng's demonic transformation, his strength had reached the Iron Skin level, and coupled with the demonic entity's innate astonishing strength and defense, opponents of the same level were simply no match.

Chen Feng could only barely cope!

Sure enough.

Just as Wang Xuan had expected, only a few minutes into the battle, someone was sent flying by the demonic entity with a slap, severely injured and unable to get up.

Chen Feng wielded his broadsword in wide, sweeping motions, the saber energy sweeping out as he unleashed one strike after another towards the Bloodfiend Demonic Qi.

But these attacks of his had little effect on the Bloodfiend Demonic Qi. Even if they landed on it, they only left some shallow wounds!

Bang!

Another person was sent flying, falling to the ground and vomiting blood non-stop.

"Damn thing!"

"Where is this guy's weakness!"

Chen Feng roared.

Demonic entities all have weaknesses, especially demonic entities transformed from humans, whose weaknesses are even more obvious.

Wang Xuan heard this from the side, and a glint flashed in his eyes!

"Weak point?!"

He frowned, immediately activating the Tracking Art, its effect microscopic observation!

Wang Xuan carefully observed the Bloodfiend demon and quickly discovered that when facing the attacks of Chen Feng and the others, it always blocked the lower left side of its chest!

There, a red fleshy nodule could be seen, only the size of a fist, and not very noticeable.

[Tracking Art experience +20] [Effect microscopic observation evolved, clear as fire]

The Crimson panel's notification sounded.

Wang Xuan immediately roared, "Big Brother Chen Feng!"

"This guy's weak point is the red fleshy nodule under its left chest!"
