Chapter 529: Just a Qi Refining Stage!

he storage pouch, there was also a piece of spirit essence stone, along with some leftover teleportation talismans, and some miscellaneous trinkets.It didn't matter to Fang Yu that other things were l...Crimson Lotus let out a furious snarl, spreading her limbs wide as intense flames erupted from within her, searing the fine net.

The old man smiled confidently, withdrawing his right hand and looking quietly at the red lotus in the net.

The flames emanating from Red Lotus's body were extremely hot, capable of incinerating everything.

But surprisingly, it didn't work on this fine web at all!

Gradually, the red lotus's limbs became unable to move, completely entangled by the fine net.

When it came down to it, the fear in her heart vanished.

She just couldn't accept it, couldn't accept dying like this!

She also wanted revenge for her mother, and she wanted revenge for the many spirit beasts of the Phoenix clan!

It's a pity, there's no chance.

The fine net wound around the lotus, slowly bringing it to the elder's presence.

"You catch on much easier than your mother," the elder said.

At the sound of "mother," Honglian struggled again, anger flaring in her eyes as a terrifying aura emanated from her body.

"I must kill you! I must kill you!" Honglian glared at the elder before her, roaring.

"Down in the grave, you certainly could have killed me. But for a short time, I'm not going down there." The old man stroked his beard and smiled, "By devouring your essence, I can extend my lifespan by a hundred years."

"Old man, how old are you this year" At that moment, a voice entered the elder's ears.

The old man immediately turned his head and saw Fang Yu in front of him.

When did it appear beside me

The elder furrowed his brows slightly, looked at Fang Yu, and asked, "Who are you"

"My name is Fang Yu," Fang Yu replied truthfully.

"Fang Yu" The elder's brows furrowed.

He, who has lived in seclusion in the mountains for many years, rarely comes into contact with the modern martial arts world and has never heard of Fang Yu's name.

However, who Fang Yu is does not matter.

"Boy, I can tell you my age." The old man's face still wore a faint smile, but his tone turned cold suddenly, "But after you know it, I'll have to make you disappear from this world."

For this kind of intimidation, Fang Yu doesn't care.

"This year marks my eight hundred and seventy-second year," the old man said in a calm voice. "Perhaps when your ancestors were not yet born, I had already been cultivating for over a hundred years."

Seeing the slight arrogance on the old man's face, Fang Yu frowned and said, "Do you think living a long time is something to be proud of"

The old man raised an eyebrow and said, "Of course. Throughout history, countless cultivators have worked tirelessly to improve their cultivation, even striving for ascension to immortality. What they are truly seeking is immortality."

"And I, although unable to ascend, can enjoy a lifespan far longer than most people in this world. That is my advantage."

The old man spoke, turning his head to look at Honglian, and squinted with a smile: "These spirit beasts exist for people like me. Their essence can provide me with a lot of lifespan. At the same time, it can make my cultivation progress by leaps and bounds."

"Well, your reasons are convincing," Fang Yu said. "However, I still have a lot that I don't understand. Xiaohong, you can't take her away."

Upon hearing the address, Honglian looked towards Fang Yu.

"Well, I've said so much, but you can't understand the difference between us." The old man shook his head and said, "You are only at the Qi Refining stage, while I, with a lifespan of eight hundred and seventy-two..."

"Bang!"

The old man was still speaking, but Fang Yu's fist flew out.

Due to his incredible speed, the elder's consciousness could react, but his body was too slow to defend itself.

A muffled sound echoed as the old man was flung outwards.

Fang Yu looked at the red lotus floating in front of him, reached out his hand, and grasped the fine net that bound the red lotus. He was just about to pull it open with force.

At this moment, a bolt of purple lightning struck the sky.

The power of this bolt of purple lightning was like a mountain hundreds of meters high crashing down on him, instantly smashing Fang Yu straight to the ground.

"Boom!"

Fang Yu fell to the ground, with a burst of sound.

"Just a Qi Refining stage, yet he possesses such immense power" The elder wiped the blood from his lips, his eyes freezing as he stared at Fang Yu on the ground.

Even when fighting powerful beings from the Feng Clan in the past, he had never shed a drop of blood!

Today, this Qi Refining Stage cultivator, who was like an ant in his eyes, had actually injured him quite badly!

This was something he, with his inflated ego, couldn't tolerate.

"Kill!"

The old man extended his right hand and drew a character in the void.

A crimson light condensed into the character 'kill', flying rapidly towards Fang Yu.

In the process, the 'kill' character rapidly expanded, by the time it reached Fang Yu, it had transformed into a sharp red light long sword, emanating a murderous aura.

Fang Yu stood up, the tip of his sword right before his left chest.

Seeing this, Honglian closed her eyes.

The five-character mantra wielded by this Devourer is incredibly powerful.

The "killing" word in the Five-Word Formula is especially a decisive blow.

Her mother died under the "Kill" scripture back then.

"Bang!"

The tip of the sword never reached Fang Yu's chest, but was instead grasped by his hand on the blade.

"Hmm" The elder's brow furrowed, his right index finger extended forward.

The power of the longsword erupted suddenly.

"Boom!"

The long sword pushed forward half a foot, and the ground beneath Fang Yu's feet exploded with a boom.

The old man in mid-air frowned even tighter, his index finger moving again.

The power of the long sword surged again!

The ground couldn't bear the pressure, and stones flew everywhere.

"The force is good, but it's still far off."

Fang Yu grabbed the long sword and twisted it outwards with force.

The force controlling the long sword was instantly severed!

The old man retracted his right hand, his fingers trembling, and waves of intense pain surged through him.

The 'Killing' Art has been broken!

The old man's gaze shifted to Fang Yu, no longer with the previous confidence, but filled with surprise.

This person before us is undoubtedly more than just a Qi Refinement Stage cultivator!

His physical strength has long surpassed the realm of the Qi Refining Stage!

Just as the old man was shocked, Fang Yu grabbed the long sword and threw it towards the old man's location!

"Whoosh!"

The longsword slashed through the air, whistling past.

A sharp blade thrust directly towards the old man!

"Reflected flowers and watery moon."

The old man remained calm and pushed his hands forward.

A mirror-like surface appeared before him.

The longsword plunged into the target with swiftness, disappearing silently like a stone sinking in water, followed by a faint ripple.

The old man released his hand, and the mirror vanished.

He looked again at the feather on the ground, his eyes serious, no longer with the previous casualness.

Fang Yu's strength was obviously not as weak as his appearance suggested.

Fang Yu looked at the old man, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

If the Devourer's strength is like this, it still can't arouse too much interest in him.

Just take care of him quickly.

Fang Yu was just about to leave.

At this moment, a heavy aura suddenly descended from the gray-white sky, shrouding the entire world!

This place is a sacred land where all spirits are buried, and no living creature may defile it!

"You want to fight Go somewhere else!"

A deep and imposing voice boomed down from the heavens.

Then, behind Fang Yu and the old man, a black hole appeared.

As a black hole expands, it is accompanied by immense suction.

The will of this world seeks to forcefully send Fang Yu and the old man away from here!

The old man's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked towards the red lotus in the distance, which was imprisoned in mid-air by the 'Binding Script'. He extended his right hand.

The Crimson Lotus swiftly flew towards the elder.

Fang Yu turned his head to glance at the expanding black hole behind him, desperately pushing against the suction force outward.

But the black hole's pull is incredibly strong, while Fang Yu can withstand it, the ground and void can't!

The ground beneath their feet kept crumbling, the void twisting, unable to break free and fly with air pressure.

The elder's mouth curled into a sneer. "I remember your name, Fang Yu. I'll find you soon. Be prepared for the day death comes."

As the conversation progressed, half of the elder's body had already been swallowed by the black hole.

But his right hand was still outstretched, the crimson lotus rapidly approaching, about to be grasped by his right hand.

"Okay."

Fang Yu took out the broken Heavenly Dao Sword from his storage bag and slashed upward fiercely!

The crescent-shaped sword qi imbued with the power of heaven, broke through the shackles of space and swiftly slashed towards the midair.

Just as the elder's hand was about to grasp the red lotus, a sword qi sliced across his right arm.

"Ouch!"

With a shriek from the old man, his entire right arm shattered and flew out.

Then, he was completely sucked into the black hole, his screams abruptly ceasing, and the black hole itself vanished. fairy garment faintly released a pull, its direction... being precisely the center of the beam of light that was flaring.Fang Yu thought for a moment, then turned around and flew toward the center of...
