Chapter 164: Chapter 147: Blood Asura_2

Zheng Yichen looked at the great sword stuck in the ground, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly. He really did wish to learn martial arts, especially those that could decide a battle in a single strike, or those with the ability to unleash continuous bursts of power.

Although "Destroy Vitality Crush Life," an evil skill, could instantly boost one’s strength, it was not an offensive-type evil skill. The gap between it and the so-called Dragon Subduing 18 Palm Strikes, Seven-Injury Fist, and other such offensive skills was considerable.

"Hehehehe—having defeated the Battle Maniac Asura twice, human, do you entertain the idea of taking his place?" A sinister laugh echoed from the red fog. Zheng Yichen looked at the ephemeral shadow; he couldn’t make out the exact features from the shadow, but judging by the head alone, it resembled some kind of animal... a dog?

Uh, probably a wolf.

In this world, many Supreme Demons were related to animals, but there were also those that were not; after all, they weren’t quite aligned with the zodiac animals.

"No, and I have no intention of getting involved with you either," Zheng Yichen stared at the unknown Supreme Demon, able to sense its identity. It was more of a feeling; after dealing with the soul jellyfish, although Zheng Yichen did not sense any new attributes bestowed upon him, his perception had increased immensely.

In facing certain special beings, he could sense their essence much more keenly, probably a benefit of enhanced intuition.

The unknown Supreme Demon didn’t care about Zheng Yichen’s tone as he pulled out the great sword, saying, "That’s not for you to decide... and those things left by the Battle Maniac Asura are not so easy to wield. Take care of yourself for now."

The shadow along with other Supreme Demon shadows scattered, having only come out of curiosity to this place. After the battle ended, naturally, they wouldn’t stay there any longer.

Once the Supreme Demons departed, the aberrant creatures immediately converged. Zheng Yichen swung the heavy great sword in his hand. It wasn’t too heavy for him, and he wasn’t specialized in any particular weapon. After checking the time and clearing the nearby aberrant creatures, he continued towards the Demon Flower.

But his remote control began to sound an alarm.

The locator he left at the rendezvous point could also be used as a repeater, extending the remote control’s range of influence over his motorcycle.

The alarm now sounding from the remote control indicated... an ambush!

"..." Zheng Yichen immediately left the area, and on his return, he saw a horde of aberrant creatures chasing after Qi Xiangyun and the others. Qi Xiangyun, who rode a motorcycle, held a cube-like object, tossing it below the aberrant creatures. The cube unfolded, releasing a dense flurry of steel needles that flew out.

The aberrant creatures hit by the steel needles struggled on the ground, unable to continue the chase.

Seeing Zheng Yichen hastening back, Qi Xiangyun showed a trace of relief and immediately turned her motorcycle towards him. Watching the skillfully riding girl, Zheng Yichen’s mouth twitched involuntarily, Little sis, you truly are talented.

With Zheng Yichen’s return, those aberrant creatures posed no threat, burnt to ash by his blast of Hellfire.

"It’s too late; if he found them earlier before battling with the Battle Maniac Asura, things would have turned out differently," said the woman who was watching Zheng Yichen from a distance.

Her companion’s mirror was damaged, so they couldn’t locate Qi Xiangyun’s position with precision anymore.

Otherwise, they could have used the situation to their advantage. The Battle Maniac Asura had a high opinion of Zheng Yichen, but he wouldn’t hold back during a fight. If Zheng Yichen made any mistakes, the Battle Maniac Asura wouldn’t stop.

Among the local Supreme Demons they had encountered, the Battle Maniac Asura was one of the more difficult ones to deal with. They were considered collaborators, but the Battle Maniac Asura still did as he pleased in many matters, not appearing as cooperative as some Supreme Demons.

The weakness left for Zheng Yichen, a setup by humans, proved quite effective. Once there was an issue on their end, Zheng Yichen immediately headed back instead of continuing toward the Demon Flower.

"What happened to you? Why provoke these aberrant creatures?" Zheng Yichen looked at the three girls, planting the great sword into the ground as he asked.

"Those monsters suddenly came after us," Lin Yaoyao quickly explained, afraid that Zheng Yichen would get angry.

"We have been active in places without any human traces."

The three girls each contributed to the account of what had happened, and Zheng Yichen immediately thought of the possibility that it was orchestrated by enemies. If the Demon Flower spawned these aberrant creatures, then surely the Boundary Breaking Faction that had created it could directly influence the monsters it catalyzed, right?

"I understand, rest for a while," he said.

With such an incident, there was no point in considering further exploration.

Qi Xiangyun got out of the car and looked at the great sword Zheng Yichen had stabbed into the ground, revealing a puzzled expression, "Is there martial arts on this sword?"

"Left behind by the Battle Maniac Asura, want to check it out?"

"You beat the Battle Maniac Asura again?" Qi Xiangyun exclaimed in shock.

Zheng Yichen smiled, "If I could win once, how could I lose the second time? It wasn’t the Battle Maniac Asura’s true body, but still an incarnation."

She nodded her head. Under the somewhat envious gazes of Liu Hongzhao and Lin Yaoyao, who both had no understanding of martial arts, she began to examine the martial arts inscribed on the great sword.

On the road, Qi Xiangyun had given a basic explanation of martial arts to them, but less than two days had passed since then. Learning was not that fast; they hadn’t even found their qi yet.

"..." Qi Xiangyun, who was seriously inspecting the martial arts on the great sword, gradually fell into a trance, her eyes slowly turning blood red, her delicate body unexpectedly picked up the heavy great sword and swung it at Zheng Yichen.

The ferocious strike was casually suppressed by Zheng Yichen. He grabbed the sword and stabbed it into the ground next to him, pressing down on Qi Xiangyun, who was howling and raving madly. He took out a medicine box from the motorcycle, stuffing a blue lozenge into the girl’s mouth.

The howling stopped abruptly. Cool air emanated from the girl’s mouth. The potent mental calming lozenge had a miraculous effect on those whose minds were affected. It was also developed by the family of the wealthy lady Ahn Qi. If this didn’t work, he would have to resort to physical restraint.

"Cough cough—sorry, I’m so sorry!" Qi Xiangyun coughed twice as she returned to normal, apologizing with a full face of regret.

"Hmm."

As she saw Zheng Yichen preparing to put away the sword, she quickly said, "Wait, that was just an accident, I was almost done looking."

"Forget it, you’re already like this, and you still want to continue looking?"

Qi Xiangyun clutched Zheng Yichen’s arm tightly, her eyes brimming with longing, "I definitely won’t be influenced by it this time!"

Zheng Yichen touched her head, "We’ll talk about it tomorrow."

At night, Qi Xiangyun had trouble sleeping. She had been affected by the martial arts on the sword but managed to memorize a part of it.

Blood Asura.

That was the martial arts recorded on the great sword. It wasn’t meant to turn a person into an Asura Demon but was definitely a martial arts that could rapidly increase one’s combat strength in a short period of time.

As for side effects? She only saw the potential of the martial arts. As long as one learned it, they could become very strong in a very short period of time, it was almost like a non-fracturing version of the Evil Sword technique.

However, this martial arts also had a demonic nature, making her subconsciously immerse herself in it the first time she saw it, being influenced by its demonic nature and triggering the resentment in her heart, plunging her into madness.

Wrapped in a sleeping bag next to her, Liu Hongzhao was also sleeping restlessly. She had fallen asleep, but in her dreams, she saw a very gentle woman, who looked at her smilingly, giving her the feeling of being reunited with her mother. When the dream woman gently stroked her head, it provoked a sense of wanting to cry.

In the dream, the gentle woman whispered in her ear. In a place Liu Hongzhao couldn’t see, the woman’s eyes turned into snake-like vertical pupils, and her protruding tongue split at the end.

In the dream.

Zheng Yichen looked at the hairy, rugged man before him, frowning slightly, confused about why he’d dream of another, more rugged man while asleep next to three girls who could get him executed thrice. Dreams are contrary, so did this mean he would meet... Wait, he realized this was a dream, right?

He gradually became aware of the problem, and the rugged man opposite him had an ugly expression. He seemed to want to approach Zheng Yichen, but just paced in place.

He looked a bit foolish.
