Marrow Refinement Realm Expert Attacks! Danger!

Outside Fenshui Town.

On a wide stretch of the Fenshui River tributary.

Several large ships were linked together, forming a small dock.

Judging by the markings on the outside of these ships, they all belonged to the Liu Family.

Liu Chengfeng, who had met Fang Hong before and eventually backed down due to the pressure Fang Hong exerted, was currently standing on a deck.

A carrier pigeon from the horizon flapped its wings and flew straight towards him, landing directly in his hand.

He removed the small note tied to the pigeon's leg and opened it.

Immediately, Liu Chengfeng's face lit up with joy, and he strode into the ship's cabin.

Inside the cabin, a young man and a middle-aged man were talking.

The young man was dressed in a brown long gown, his tiger-like eyes filled with arrogance.

Although he was talking to the middle-aged man beside him, he didn't seem to take the other person seriously at all.

He appeared somewhat defiant and arrogant.

As for the middle-aged man, he was dressed in a brocade robe and had an extraordinary bearing, but at this moment, he seemed flustered, with a fawning smile on his face.

"Big Brother, good news! That brat surnamed Fang has already left Fenshui Town!"

At this moment, Liu Chengfeng entered excitedly.

"Presumptuous!"

"You have no manners, acting so recklessly in front of Mr. Wu!"

Seeing Liu Chengfeng's excited demeanor, the fawning middle-aged man's expression turned cold, and he immediately berated him.

This person was Liu Chengfeng's elder brother, the head of the Liu Family, Liu Chengyun.

He was also the only expert in the Bone Refinement realm within the Liu Family.

"It's fine. What you just said, is it true? Has that guy named Fang Hong really left Fenshui Town?"

At this moment, the arrogant young man in the brown gown's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked.

"That's right, Mr. Wu. I've received news from my subordinates that he has already departed."

"He intends to travel by water to the Star River Sect, so he should arrive here soon."

Upon hearing this, the so-called Mr. Wu's expression immediately brightened.

"Good, but are you sure he has the Water Origin Spirit Liquid on him, and hasn't used it yet?"

"Naturally," Liu Chengyun replied.

"We've already sent people to confirm. They discovered a Water Origin Cave this time."

"And Fang Hong took all the Water Origin Spirit Liquid from that cave."

Liu Chengyun put on a flattering smile, "And after receiving your message, we've had people keeping an eye on him."

"This brat has been in closed-door cultivation these past few days, having the inn's waiter prepare many soups to replenish his blood and qi."

"It seems the brat is reluctant to use the Water Origin Spirit Liquid."

"Hahaha!"

Hearing this, Mr. Wu burst into laughter. "It's good that he's reluctant!"

"If he's reluctant, it just means it will all be mine."

"As long as I get that Water Origin Spirit Liquid, I will definitely be able to condense my blood and reach the Blood Replacement realm this time!"

After laughing excitedly a few times, he frowned again.

"But are you sure the surroundings have been cleared?"

"This is, after all, within the Star River Sect's sphere of influence."

"The Star River Sect and my Crimson Spirit Sect are like fire and water. News of me being here absolutely cannot be leaked."

Mr. Wu narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Chengyun coldly.

Hearing this, Liu Chengyun's heart tightened, and he quickly reassured him.

"Rest assured, Mr. Wu. Before you arrived, I had already cleared out the entire surrounding area."

"Absolutely no one will know that you appeared here."

Liu Chengyun guaranteed with great confidence.

"That's good." Mr. Wu nodded with satisfaction.

"I must thank you for your assistance this time. Otherwise, we really wouldn't have known what to do with Fang Hong."

"I heard that he easily killed a Great Python in the Bone Refinement realm within that Water Origin Cave."

Mr. Wu waved his hand with a smile. "No need for pleasantries."

"Since that guy is preparing to join the Star River Sect, he is an enemy of my Crimson Spirit Sect."

"As for easily killing a Great Python at the Bone Refinement stage, hmph, it was just a nascent beast, nothing worth mentioning."

Mr. Wu said dismissively.

"Haha, that Fang Hong will certainly not be Mr. Wu's match."

Meanwhile, Fang Hong was naturally sailing downstream.

He soon arrived at the location of the small boat dock.

Shua~

The moment he saw the small boat dock blocking his path, Fang Hong instantly stood up.

His gaze forward was filled with vigilance, and his expression became very solemn.

Immediately after, he saw several people emerge from the small boat dock onto the deck.

Leading them was an arrogant young man dressed in a brown long gown.

He was currently looking at Fang Hong from afar.

Danger~

A very strong sense of danger.

The instant Fang Hong saw the young man in the brown gown, his internal alarm bells rang loudly.

"Boatman, stop for now."

Fang Hong called out directly.

Before his voice even finished, and before the boat had even stabilized, Fang Hong had already come out with a bag of luggage on his back.

Then, the muscles in his legs bulged.

The next moment, he leaped into the air.

He covered several meters in a single bound, soaring towards the mountain forest on the right bank.

"Not good, that kid is trying to escape!!"

Several people on the deck of the nearby small boat dock had their expressions darken upon seeing this.

Immediately after, they all bent their legs and leaped forward.

Especially the young man in the brown gown leading them; while still in mid-air, he stomped heavily on the water's surface with both feet.

The stomp cracked, and amidst the splashing water, his downward momentum instantly halted, and he leaped up again, landing on the bank.

He then immediately pursued Fang Hong in the direction he had fled.

As for the Liu Chengyun and Liu Chengfeng brothers behind him, their speed was clearly much slower.

In the mountain forest, the vegetation was dense.

However, Fang Hong paid no mind to the thorns and branches of the grass and trees.

He charged forward recklessly, ignoring everything.

After a short while, his clothes were already torn in multiple places by the thorns and branches.

As a result, he looked rather disheveled.

But feeling the danger behind him growing closer, Fang Hong dared not stop.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned.

After only a short period, Fang Hong's figure suddenly halted.

This was because a brown figure had already appeared in front of him.

It was the young man in the brown long gown he had seen earlier.

"Why aren't you running anymore?"

Wu Dongliang said with a cold sneer at Fang Hong.

Hearing this, Fang Hong looked at the other party calmly, then unstrapped the luggage from his back and tossed it into a nearby flower bush.

"To be able to catch up to me so quickly, it seems you are not just at the Bone Refinement stage."

Fang Hong said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Wu Dongliang let out a disdainful scoff.

"Bone Refinement?"

"This young master has already reached Great Perfection in Marrow Refinement, nearing completion!"

"Now I just need the Water Origin Spirit Liquid you have to wash my blood and break through to the Blood Replacement stage!"

Wu Dongliang said arrogantly, "If you know what's good for you, hand over the Water Origin Spirit Liquid quickly."

"I might even leave you with a whole corpse!"

"Otherwise," Wu Dongliang said, a cruel smile on his face.

"I'll let you know just what it feels like to face the methods of my Crimson Spirit Sect..."

The Crimson Spirit Sect!

This guy was actually a disciple of the Crimson Spirit Sect!

Hearing his words, Fang Hong's heart leaped in surprise.

No wonder he was caught up to so quickly.

Although the vast difference in their cultivation realms was a major factor, Fang Hong had mastered both the Iron Leg Skill and a flesh-refining level movement technique to perfection.

The other party shouldn't have been able to catch up this fast.

Was this the foundation of a major sect disciple?

The various methods they possessed were beyond what ordinary rogue cultivators could compare to.

"This area should be within the Star River Sect's territory."

Fang Hong narrowed his eyes. "For a disciple of the Crimson Spirit Sect to appear here, it seems you don't intend to let me leave alive."

"Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say."

As he spoke, Fang Hong slowly raised his hands.

Knowing the other party was a Crimson Spirit Sect disciple, Fang Hong understood.

If he didn't kill this guy, he wouldn't be able to leave alive.

Even if he handed over the Water Origin Spirit Liquid he had, the other party would definitely not let him go, lest he leak any information.

Seeing Fang Hong's actions, Wu Dongliang burst into hysterical laughter as if he had witnessed the greatest joke in the world.

"Hahaha, what do you mean by that?"

"You're in the Bone Refinement realm, and you think you can kill me, who has reached the Great Completion of Marrow Refinement?!"

Wu Dongliang said, tears streaming down his face from laughter.

Hearing this, Fang Hong smiled calmly.

"Why not?"

As he spoke, a savage look gradually appeared in his eyes.

"When I smash your head in, I hope you can still laugh this happily!!"

Buzzzzz—!!

In an instant, his blood and inner strength surged and circulated wildly.

Immediately, Fang Hong's muscles began to swell like balloons.

His muscles twisted and overlapped, bulging veins like snakes thrummed and trembled.

Amidst the countless contortions of his muscles, a layer of muscle scales resembling snake scales appeared on Fang Hong's body.

The Jade Scale Body Tempering Technique!

His legs, as thick as an elephant's, were like steel pillars, emitting a dull, dark blue sheen. They stomped heavily onto the ground, causing it to tremble.

His claws, like a demon's arms, gripped tightly, emitting a muffled sound akin to an air explosion from his palms.

Looking across at his opponent, Fang Hong grinned ferociously.

"Come on!"

"Let's see who dies!!!"

BOOM!!!
