A Desperate Strike! Solitary Goose Startled Swan!!

In the midst of the mountains and forests.

The sounds of impact echoed continuously.

Grass and trees flew, dirt splashed.

Tree after tree fell.

Looking out, a clearing had appeared in the center of the area.

All the trees, flowers, and grass in this clearing had been destroyed and toppled.

And two afterimages, one large and one small, were fiercely clashing and fighting.

Boom!

At this moment, after separating, the two afterimages slammed into each other heavily once more.

The next second, Fang Hong let out a muffled groan, blood flowing from his lips as he was sent flying backward.

He smashed into two more trees along the way.

"Cough~~"

Fang Hong, his clothes ripped into rags, propped himself up with his hands on the ground and slowly got to his feet.

Just as he managed to stand steadily, he swayed and violently spat out a mouthful of blood.

"The gap in strength between Great Accomplishment Bone Refinement and Great Accomplishment Marrow Refinement is ultimately too vast."

Fang Hong shook his body, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face full of solemnity.

His opponent was truly worthy of being a disciple of the Crimson Spirit Sect; his strength was indeed extraordinary.

Based on their previous exchanges.

If the Crimson Spirit Sect disciple opposite him was the standard.

His current true combat power should barely reach the level of a Great Sect disciple at Great Accomplishment Marrow Refinement.

But even so, his strength was still a notch below this guy's.

Due to the color of his muscle scales, apart from a few very obvious injuries, he didn't appear to be in too much trouble.

But in reality, the extent of his injuries at this moment was not slight.

"If this battle continues like this, he will likely die at this guy's hands very soon."

"It seems I have to truly fight for my life..."

A fierce glint flashed in Fang Hong's eyes.

Meanwhile, Wu Dongliang, who was opposite him, no longer had the arrogance and disdain in his eyes as he looked at Fang Hong.

It was replaced by solemnity and seriousness.

And the reason for such a big change in his attitude.

Was naturally because Fang Hong's strength had deeply shocked him.

A rogue martial artist who hadn't yet joined a Great Sect, a rogue martial artist who was merely at the Great Accomplishment Bone Refinement realm.

In a real fight, his true combat power was actually no less than his own at Great Accomplishment Marrow Refinement.

If it weren't for the fact that his Marrow Refinement was already close to perfection, and he was about to temper his blood.

He might really not be this guy's opponent!

How could he still dare to underestimate this opponent who had almost killed him several times.

"You seem to be called Fang Hong, right?"

Wu Dongliang spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, looking at Fang Hong with a solemn expression.

Although his injuries were much lighter than Fang Hong's.

His appearance, however, looked even more disheveled.

His body was covered in injuries, with fist prints and claw marks, his skin torn and bleeding.

"I admit, I did underestimate you before."

"I didn't expect a mere Great Accomplishment Bone Refinement like you could push me to this extent."

"You have reason to be proud!"

Wu Dongliang stared at Fang Hong, killing intent flashing in his eyes.

"But your strength is still a notch below mine, so you will surely die today!"

Hearing this, Fang Hong let out a ferocious grin, "But I think it's you who will die!"

Bang!

Before the words were even finished, both of them attacked simultaneously.

They instantly shattered the ground where they stood, turning into two afterimages and charging at each other.

Bang!

The next moment, the two collided again.

Fists and arms met, and a faint cracking sound of bone breaking echoed from Fang Hong's arm as he blocked Wu Dongliang's punch.

But Fang Hong's expression didn't change at all.

Instead, he directly brought his arm down, and his left hand's five fingers fiercely grabbed.

Those thick fingers, with their sharp nails, dug deeply into Wu Dongliang's arm muscles.

The pain, almost piercing through his arm, made Wu Dongliang's facial muscles twitch.

"You're asking for death!!!"

Wu Dongliang's expression turned furious, and he used his other hand to grab Fang Hong's palm that was clamped onto his arm.

Then, he twisted it fiercely.

However, at this moment, Fang Hong seemed to completely disregard his own left hand.

While Wu Dongliang was twisting his arm, Fang Hong clenched his right fist and surged with inner strength.

Zhongping Spear, the king of spears; the center point is the hardest to defend!

Using his arm as the spear, his hand-chop stab and punch as the spearhead, his punch shot out like a venomous snake flicking its tongue, or a blue dragon extending its claw!

The killing move of Zhongping Spear Art – Solitary Goose Startled Swan!

Wu Dongliang's expression instantly changed drastically!!

His eyes were filled with terror in an instant!

He instinctively wanted to retreat and dodge, but his arm was firmly gripped by Fang Hong's thick fingers.

The next second.

Crack, squish!!

As Fang Hong's left forearm was twisted and became like a twisted rope...

Fang Hong's palm also deeply penetrated Wu Dongliang's chest.

"Uh..."

Blood trickled from Wu Dongliang's lips as he looked in disbelief at the arm that had pierced his chest.

"It seems my feeling was right, it wasn't me who died!"

Fang Hong grinned ferociously, stirred the hand stuck in Wu Dongliang's chest, and then pulled it out.

A large amount of blood, along with fragments of heart tissue, splattered out as he withdrew his hand.

He shook his left shoulder, freeing himself from Wu Dongliang's hands that had twisted his left forearm.

Only then did Wu Dongliang suddenly fall to the ground, completely losing his life force.

Fang Hong looked at his left arm, which was almost twisted into a pretzel, and coughed violently.

He spat out another mouthful of blood.

Back in the earlier fight, Fang Hong had already discovered this.

This guy from the Crimson Spirit Sect was indeed very strong, his combat methods were diverse, and his strength was far greater than his own.

But there was one thing.

Perhaps it was related to his status as a disciple of a major sect.

Or perhaps he was confident enough in his own strength.

To the point that he lacked the desperate, fight-to-the-death ruthlessness towards himself.

Every time he encountered a situation where he might get injured, he would prioritize saving himself and avoiding injury.

Or perhaps it was because he had no doubt about killing him.

So he felt it wasn't worth getting injured to kill him.

This combat habit might not be a big deal normally.

But when it truly came down to a life-or-death moment, when fighting for one's life.

This habit was extremely fatal.

Fang Hong had just exploited this habit.

While Wu Dongliang was trying to free his captured arm, Fang Hong, at the cost of his left forearm being twisted, launched a fatal blow.

This was how he managed to kill the opponent!

Sometimes, one must be ruthless not only to the enemy, but also to oneself!

Rustle rustle rustle~~

At this moment, the sound of rapid footsteps suddenly echoed from the nearby woods.

Fang Hong's gaze instantly swept towards the direction of the footsteps.

"How is this possible?!"

"Mr. Wu... Mr. Wu is actually dead?!"

As footsteps approached, two figures rapidly arrived and soon appeared in Fang Hong's sight.

It was the Liu brothers, Liu Chengyun and Liu Chengfeng, who had been pursuing him and had only just arrived late.

Upon seeing the scene before them, they both simultaneously let out exclamations of shock.

Their faces were filled with disbelief and astonishment.

When they clearly saw Fang Hong's current inhuman appearance, their hearts skipped a beat, and a wave of fear washed over them.

However, when they clearly saw the injuries on Fang Hong's body and sensed his weak and chaotic aura.

The expressions on both their faces instantly changed.

Seeing the change in their expressions, Fang Hong grinned, revealing blood-stained teeth, and let out a ferocious laugh.

"Liu Chengfeng, it seems you two are truly seeking death."

"I spared your life a few days ago, and now you can't wait to deliver yourselves to my doorstep again so soon?"

Fang Hong licked his lips. "Believe it or not, even with these severe injuries, I'll let you have one hand each."

"Killing you will still be as easy as ever!"
