The Blood Devil Fled Until He Broke Down, with So Many Backup Plans
Seeing the Blood Devil's body surging with crimson light and its eyes flickering uncertainly, Liu Yi's lips curled into a cold smile:
"Trying to escape? Wishful thinking."
From the moment you came into my sight, there was no escape!
Before he finished speaking, he raised his hand and summoned World in the Palm. A phantom world suddenly unfolded, instantly enveloping the entire universe.
Upon seeing this, the Blood Devil immediately transformed into a streak of crimson light and fled, only to reappear in the same spot in the blink of an eye.
His face was ashen, and before he could even make out his surroundings, he burst into wild laughter:
"Hahaha! I've finally escaped!"
You dare steal my Immortal Artifact, and even severely injure me?
Once I have survived the Heavenly Tribulation tribulation and become an immortal, I will surely tear you to pieces, grind your bones to dust, and then capture your soul, burning it with demonic fire for ten thousand years. I will also...
His boastful remarks came to an abrupt halt.
The Blood Devil stared at Liu Yi, who remained calm, and then at the unchanged surroundings. He was instantly struck dumb, frozen in place, and let out a bloodcurdling scream:
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
I clearly escaped a million miles using my Blood Escape, so how come I'm still in the same place?
It's a hallucination! It must be a hallucination!
Before he finished speaking, blood-red light surged from his body again, and he once again spared no expense in sacrificing his own life force to activate the Blood Escape Technique, disappearing once more.
But the next moment, he reappeared in the same spot, looking disheveled.
At this moment, his face grew even paler, his skin cracked like withered wood, and his vital Essence Blood were severely depleted.
When he caught sight of Liu Yi in front of him and Bai Qianqian and the other three not far away, he was completely dumbfounded, his eyes filled with disbelief.
How could... how could we be in the same spot again?
Could it be that I've depleted too much of my Essence Blood, causing me to experience such vivid hallucinations?
Yes! That must be it.
The Blood Devil frantically activated Blood Escape again and again, but each time the escape light flashed and the figure disappeared, it would return to its original spot in a sorry state in the blink of an eye.
He seemed trapped in a vicious cycle, desperately repeating the act of running away.
Mei Kong stared at the absurd scene before her, her face filled with shock, and blurted out:
"What's going on? Why does the Blood Devil keep spinning in the same spot every time he uses Blood Escape?"
"Has being sealed away for tens of thousands of years really made him stupid?"
Yang Jingxing frowned, his tone tinged with a hint of speechlessness:
Do you think he's stupid?
We almost got caught by him just now. If he's stupid, then what are we?
To this humble Daoist, it seems as if Liu Yi used spatial Divine Ability to teleport the Blood Devil back to its original location.
But strangely, I couldn't sense the slightest spatial fluctuation.
Su Yuxuan also pondered deeply, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. "It does seem somewhat like time travel, but it's not quite right."
If time could be reversed, the Blood Devil Demon's injuries should have healed.
But each time he used Blood Escape, his aura weakened, and his injuries worsened; he looked like he was being completely drained.
Bai Qianqian watched intently, deeply moved.
She suddenly remembered Liu Yi's saying, "One flower, one world; One Leaf, one Bodhi," and a vague guess formed in her mind.
He most likely mastered a similar supernatural Divine Ability.
But the thought only flashed through her mind; she didn't say it aloud.
After all, Divine Ability martial arts are a cultivator's trump card; the fewer people who know about them, the more intimidating they become.
After using Blood Escape again, the Blood Devil Demon reappeared in the same spot.
At this moment, his life Essence Blood was almost exhausted, and he looked exactly like a human skeleton, covered only by a layer of withered skin.
He stared at Liu Yi, who remained calm and composed, and finally broke down completely. His hoarse voice trembled, sounding both self-talk and a defense:
"It's an illusion... it must be an illusion!"
"I must have fallen for your illusion, otherwise... otherwise why would I always end up in the same spot?"
Liu Yi smiled slightly, "Want to try Blood Escape again? I have plenty of time; I might as well watch you put on another show."
These words struck the Blood Devil Demon like a thunderbolt. He froze, his eyes filled with terror, and his withered body trembled like a leaf.
"Devil! You're a devil!"
I... I've used Blood Escape forty-three times already, why can't I escape?
Why do I keep appearing in front of you? What is the reason for this?
Liu Yi didn't bother to answer his question, his tone remaining calm. "Since you're not running away anymore, then it's my turn."
Before he could finish speaking, he raised his hand and shook it.
The World in the Palm suddenly shrank, and the Blood Devil's figure slowly shrank until it finally fell directly into his palm.
Within the World in the Palm, lightning danced wildly, fire dragons roared, Sword Qi crisscrossed, and blade light flashed, as countless attacks rained down upon the Blood Devil.
As the Blood Devil watched Liu Yi's disappearing figure, the surrounding environment suddenly changed. Before he could even feel the joy of escaping, a barrage of violent attacks crashed down from the sky.
His expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly struck out several bloody palm prints, desperately trying to withstand the barrage of attacks.
"Where am I? Why am I here? Let me out!"
However, he was met only with increasingly intense attacks.
The Essence Blood Devil, already exhausted and on its last legs, couldn't hold on for long before being blasted into dust by the overwhelming, ferocious attacks.
Liu Yi stared at the scattered remains of the Blood Devil, recalling its terrifying regenerative abilities.
He immediately conjured a Heaven and Earth Furnace in his World in the Palm, taking all the corpse pieces into it and igniting true fire to smelt them.
A bloodcurdling scream suddenly erupted from inside the furnace, "Ahhh! Spare me! Please spare my life!"
I am willing to offer up my Blood Devil Cultivation Method, I am willing to submit to you! I... I am willing to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao Oath, never to betray you!
Liu Yi listened to the Blood Devil's shrill screams from within the Heaven and Earth Furnace, a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.
These devils are indeed all cunning and treacherous; if you're not careful, they'll find a way to escape.
However, having read countless novels in his previous life, he was already familiar with this type of difficult-to-remove character.
Even reducing the bones to ashes is far from enough; the ashes must be completely obliterated, otherwise the slightest oversight could allow the other party to be resurrected.
"I'll only be at peace when you're dead."
Someone as vile as you, do you even deserve to be my servant?
I find it an eyesore.
As for the Blood Devil Cultivation Method, even if it were given to me for free, I wouldn't want it.
Before he finished speaking, he took out the immortal sword he had previously seized from the Blood Devil.
The palm of his hand was enveloped in the light of the Principle of the Great Dao of the World, and powerful True Power flowed continuously into the blade, erasing the mark left by the Blood Devil.
It also completely annihilated the trace of the Blood Primordial Spirit's Blood Devil spirit's Essence Blood within the Immortal Blade, cutting off any possibility of resurrection.
After doing all this, he activated the Principle of Cause and Effect, tracing the threads of cause and effect to investigate all the Blood Devil's hidden plans for resurrection.
"Tsk tsk, no wonder the Blood Devil is so hard to get rid of, he's certainly cautious."
A cold glint flashed in his eyes. "With so many backup plans for resurrection, if you hadn't run into me, you might have actually had a chance to survive."
Following the direction indicated by the threads of cause and effect, the location of the Essence Blood containing a trace of the Blood Devil Primordial Spirit was revealed.
He unleashed twelve punches in quick succession toward the hiding place, the Five Elements Fist carrying immense Power of Principle as it tore through the air.
In the blink of an eye, they traversed thousands of miles, annihilating all the hidden resurrection threats and leaving no hidden dangers.
He then applied the Principle of Cause and Effect ten more times, meticulously checking each instance to ensure nothing was missed.
Only then did they turn their gaze to the Heaven and Earth Furnace.
At this moment, the Blood Devil's remains inside the furnace were about to be completely refined.
His expression was solemn, and a lingering concern remained: would the true mastermind behind the Blood Devil Cultivation Method emerge?
