Black-Red Fish
“What happened?” The demon looked at the landscape in front of him, confused.
Suddenly, a strong feeling of danger came from behind. Turning around, he saw a massive hand blocking out the sky, coming down on him. It moved so fast he had no chance to dodge.
Crash!
In a flash, the powerful palm attack wiped out the visceral prefecture realm demon.
Qin Huai quickly put away the bronze mountain and river diagram. He swallowed hard, and when he surfaced, he found himself in a pool of blood.
He was covered in the sea of blood, the liquid seemingly sticking to him. He could even feel a great pull from those unseen hands, trying to take away his power.
Everything around him was covered in blood, making it hard to see. Yet, he could still make out the shapes of many dark figures showing their fangs and claws at him, and he could hear faint voices whispering to him.
Moving his wings and limbs, Qin Huai swam with all his strength. In one push, he was able to cover ten meters. After a tiring twenty meters, he seemed to have gone deep into the blood sea.
Crash!
By chance, Qin Huai shot out of the blood sea at a great speed. He could not help but take in the cold air greedily, feeling as if he had just avoided danger.
“It looks like the bronze world can’t be used on the blood sea for now,” Qin Huai said, still shaking from fear. Being in the blood sea was much more uncomfortable than he had expected.
Whoosh!
As soon as he surfaced, a strong wind blew towards him. His wings were now back to their normal size.
“Brother Qin! Are you okay?” Wang Kun’s rough voice came from far away.
“Don’t worry, Elder Wang! Focus on defeating the enemy. As long as you’re alive, I’ll survive,” Qin Huai replied, then flew towards the demons in the sky again.
“Hahaha… You’re pretty confident, aren’t you? Can your wings handle more attacks?”
The demons felt their hair rise when they saw their visceral prefecture realm experts were missing from the shore. They had completely given up the idea of fighting Qin Huai up close.
They moved wildly, using wind blades to attack Qin Huai’s wings. But each strong flap of Qin Huai’s wings took the lives of one or two demons.
“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x20], [Kun Peng Seed (927/2,000)]!”
“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x1], [Kun Peng Seed (928/2,000)]!” “Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x3], [Kun Peng Seed (933/2,000)]!”
“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x1], [Kun Peng Seed (940/2,000)]!”
“Ding! have collected…”
Many Kun Peng fragments passed before Qin Huai’s eyes, gathering in his dantian world. As time went on, Qin Huai’s wings got weaker. Finally…
Crash!
With the sudden breaking of the ice, Qin Huai’s body started to lose balance. He moved sideways in the air, slowly falling towards the blood sea.
“Hahaha… His guardian spirit item has reached its limit!”
“Attack!”
“Kill him!”
The eyes of many demons shone with a strong will to kill. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time, so many figures rushed towards Qin Huai. Sets of big gray wings that blocked out the sun surrounded him, who was looking up at the sky.
Below him was a red sea. In the cold wind, a single ray of sunlight broke through the heavy clouds to light up Qin Huai’s face.
The scene looked like a big funeral, but the man in the middle wore a calm smile. His expression slowly became clear to the strong mourners.
“Something’s wrong!” someone shouted. The next second, he yelled, “Quick, everyone, hurry up!”
Boom!
The demons sped up. The loud sound of the air being torn apart almost echoed in Qin Huai’s ears.
“I don’t think you, now like a bird without wings, can pull off any more tricks!” said the leader, a fifth-level bone pattern realm demon, smiling evilly.
But the smile on his face stopped. In his sight, a new pair of wings had grown from Qin Huai’s back, and he was floating in the air. Watching their comrades attack him, they opened their blood-filled mouths.
Roar!
A loud tiger and dragon roar suddenly came from Qin Huai’s mouth, reaching all the demons he could see.
The horrible explosion made the demons who were first hit shout and blow up right away. The remaining demons also started to fall to the ground, their eyes white.
Qin Huai’s wings beat hard. He drew quick, sharp lines in the air, taking the lives of all those demons. action “Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x1]…”
As Qin Huai collected more Kun Peng fragments, he saw the endless blood scatter and mix with the blood sea.
He started to look for Wang Kun in the sea of clouds. The latter, who had fought for his life with a visceral prefecture realm demon, was almost done with the fight. With a strong punch, he smashed the other’s face.
The fight to the death between the two was also over. The demon fell heavily into the blood sea and didn’t get up again.
“Brother Qin.” Wang Kun looked up at Qin Huai, who had landed next to him. Then, he looked at the empty sea of clouds around him.
“Did Brother Qin kill all those people?” Wang Kun was surprised. “I remember there’s still a visceral prefecture realm expert. And Brother Qin’s wings are also…”
“They’re just small fries, not worth mentioning.” Qin Huai waved his hand humbly. “Elder Wang, on the other hand, has really impressed me. You were able to kill a visceral prefecture realm demon almost unhurt despite being in the same realm and in such bad conditions. You’re really impressive.”
He was smiling happily, but his heart was shocked. Earlier, he had clearly seen many wounds on Wang Kun’s body, but now, those wounds had gone.
Also, it was really hard to understand why a South Mythical Sect elder of the same cultivation level could kill the Kun Peng demon in such a place with such a great advantage.
Unless Le Ji’an and the others grew wings, they could do it. But who were Le Ji’an and the others, and what level was the South Mythical Sect elder… This wasn’t looking down on him, it was seeking truth from facts.
Qin Huai hid the beating in his heart because Wang Kun’s eyes were clear and he didn’t seem to be hiding anything. He didn’t know if it was because he was good at acting or if it was really a great chance.
In any case, with such a capable helper, his trip to the blood sea would be easier. As for the other’s plans in the future, he would have to handle them based on his abilities.
“Brother Qin, let’s get out of here first…” Wang Kun pulled Qin Huai and ran. “The demons’ army will surely come after us later.”
The two of them ran wildly, flying close to the blood sea.
“There are a lot of demons in this blood sea. I think there are tens of thousands of them!”
Wang Kun’s words surprised Qin Huai a little. He had thought there would be more demons. After all, the Kun Peng clan had ruled Qingzhou for thousands of years and their influence spread all over it.
Now, it seemed that although the Kun Peng clan was strong, their fertility was very average. After thousands of years, they had only grown their race to ten thousand people. Though ten thousand people wasn’t a small number, compared to the hundreds of thousands of people Qin Huai had imagined, this could be considered a lucky break.
The two of them ran for dozens of miles before finally stopping. They had already reached the edge of the blood sea.
Qin Huai had just opened his mouth when his stomach started growling. After a long fight, he was naturally very hungry.
“Elder Wang, I wonder how you managed to eat in this blood sea?” Qin Huai asked.
Wang Kun’s eyes squinted as he suddenly dived into the blood sea below him.
Bang!
When Wang Kun came back, he had a half-meter-long fish that was totally black and had no scales in his hand.
“Here it is.” Wang Kun took a bite. The fish was black on the outside and red on the inside, and it had a jelly-like texture. “I call this a black-red fish.”
