Chapter 78

The crimson light cocoons formed by the essence and spirit of hundreds of martial artists at the third to fifth layers of the Qi Practitioner stage, even with their weak points, were still quite substantial!

Xiaoran used Zhan Jinsheng, Jianqi Leiyin, and Fengyi Zhan in succession, but he could only shave off a layer of red light, like peeling a thin layer of apple skin, which was utterly useless!

Xiaoran grew increasingly anxious. Although he was the type who could think quickly under pressure, in the face of absolute power, quick thinking was of little use!

At this moment, the crimson light cocoon shrank smaller and smaller, revealing Feng Xi's figure!

Feng Xi no longer had any trace of her former delicate beauty. Her muscles bulged like small mountains, her essence condensed into a towering pillar of smoke above her head, and her eyes were bloodshot!

But she let out a series of疯狂的笑声：“这力量，这力量，我终于突破练气境了，我己经是天元境的武者了，我己经天下无敌了……

历老鬼，我要撕了你，斩下你的四肢，把你做成人棍，啊……”

Her laughter eventually turned into a series of night-owl-like cries!

Behind her, a dark shadow loomed, as if composed of countless resentful figures, radiating a deep hatred for the world!

Xiaoran was struck by this hatred, feeling a chill run through his body, his thoughts nearly freezing. He muttered, "It seems her mind has been burned out. I knew it, such a method must have side effects..."

The other martial artists in the air immediately fell to the ground like dumplings, all of them clutching their heads and wailing, as if experiencing the most painful thing in the world!

At this moment, Feng Wanqiu's weak voice came through the Qingxu Flame: "It's too late, too late. I didn't expect she would really succeed in condensing her Heart Image...

What kind of person can condense such a Heart Image, with such deep hatred for the world..."

Feng Xi's疯狂的笑意 instantly vanished, her expression becoming calm. She scanned the area and said, "I'm sorry for showing you this ugly side of me!

I'm sorry, but you will die seeing this scene..."

Xiaoran bit his tongue hard, finally regaining some clarity!

He said to the Qingxu Flame, "Execute the first plan, forcibly connect my eye meridians..."

The Qingxu Flame replied, "You might go blind..."

Xiaoran roared, "Hurry up..."

The Qingxu Flame said, "Alright, as you wish!"

Xiaoran's eye meridians began to glow, completely connected by the powerful force of the Qingxu Flame, no longer separate but forming a whole!

His eyes turned blood red, but his pupils became pitch black, like the abyss of the world, bottomless!

Under these eyes, everything about Feng Xi was clear, unlike before when the Phoenix-Breaking Gaze could only see the surface energy flow!

Feng Xi instinctively felt a chill and looked at Xiaoran, shouting, "What kind of eye meridians are these? Damn it, you actually make me afraid, make me, a Tianyuan Realm martial artist, afraid!"

Xiaoran chuckled, "Tianyuan Realm martial artist, girl, you really are too naive!

Your essence and blood are too vast, far beyond what your body can bear...

Your True Phoenix Body is not fully stabilized, and you can't control others' meridians freely...

The天地灵气 you absorbed is chaotic, only a small part has merged into your True Qi, turning into True Yuan, while most of your strength is spent fighting against these chaotic energies...

Your Heart Image is not fully yours, and it could backfire at any moment...

With so many weaknesses combined, you are like a sieve full of holes. If I hit any one of them, you will instantly collapse!"

Feng Xi was stunned, as everything Xiaoran said was correct. His insight was truly remarkable...

But it didn't matter!

In the face of absolute power, nothing mattered. Even if she stood there and let Xiaoran attack, he couldn't break through her protective True Qi!

"Just you!"

As she spoke, Feng Xi raised her hand to strike Xiaoran. Everyone believed she could crush him like a fly!

Xiaoran thought the same!

But Feng Xi's hand paused in the air, as if restrained by something!

Feng Xi looked at Xiaoran's strange eyes, the deep, hell-like pupils emitting a faint, eerie light, and felt a faint but chilling force. She suddenly realized, "Phoenix-Breaking Light!

No wonder Feng Wanqiu acted this way. You have condensed the Phoenix-Breaking Gaze, even in its juvenile form!

But what use is it? It can only hold me for two breaths..."

Xiaoran's eyes were in excruciating pain, but he coldly snorted, "How do you know unless you try..."

As he spoke, countless sword auras slashed at Feng Xi!

But in the face of her protective True Qi, which had transformed after the True Qi metamorphosis, these sword auras were like eggs hitting a rock, completely ineffective!

Even Xiaoran, known for his calmness, felt his face darken!

"Should I run away on my own... Xiaodabao, Wang Xiaofeng, Lu Xiaoyi, Feng Wanqiu, and Sikong Yuehua...

Damn, I can't do it. I'll give it one more try!"

Xiaoran's heart surged with boundless fighting spirit, and he was about to charge at Feng Xi with his sword, knowing that the closer he got, the more powerful and easier it would be to find a weakness!

But at this moment, the Qingxu Flame, which had been providing him with endless power, suddenly cut off his power source. Xiaoran only heard the Qingxu Flame say, "Although I am a part of Feng Wanqiu...

I was created for battle, and I envy everything she has...

Why can't I live like her...

I don't want to die, but Xiaoran, I don't want you to die either. Is this what it means to like someone?

I really want to try what it feels like to like someone...

I really want to try what it feels like to be human..."

The Qingxu Flame rambled on, flying out of Xiaoran's body, forming a pair of True Qi wings for him, then it suddenly crashed into Feng Xi, its body exploding!

The world shook once again!

The extremely powerful force hit Feng Xi, though it didn't break through her protective True Qi, it triggered a chain reaction like a domino effect!

The powerful explosion forced Feng Xi to use all her strength to resist, causing the chaotic天地元气 she had been trying to control to go out of control, colliding with the residual True Qi in her body, causing explosions in her meridians!

This further reduced her control, making the vast essence and blood she had been trying to control run rampant!

Her skin split open, and blood spurted out like a fountain!

Feng Xi's spirit began to scatter, and the Heart Image she had just condensed suddenly dispersed, turning into ghostly faces that bit into her body, sucking her life force like flies on blood!

Feng Xi's body trembled like an earthquake, her muscles bulging and bursting with blood holes, and bones breaking...

She finally lost all control, feeling the extremely violent energy within her, and managed to shout, "Lao Li, you lied to me!"

Then Feng Xi's body exploded into a blood light, disintegrating on the spot!

At this moment, on a hill outside the city, an elderly man with a sage-like appearance watched the explosion and sighed, "To leap to the heavens in one step is truly difficult.

But I see hope for success. It seems I need to revise my calculations!

This way, my Ten Thousand Demons Society can mass-produce Tianyuan Realm martial artists!"

With that, he disappeared!

The explosion from Feng Xi's self-destruction was immense, even shattering the Sealed Array!

But because she was too far from the ground, although many were injured, no one else died!

After Feng Xi's death, the blood-sucking demon vine retreated underground, disappearing without a trace!

People couldn't find Xiaoran afterward, assuming he had died in the explosion. They were extremely grateful for his heroic actions and gave Xiaodabao and his wife a lot of compensation!

But the couple was immersed in the pain of losing their son, unable to feel the joy that wealth brought!

...

Xiaoran, of course, didn't die!

Seeing Feng Xi explode, the powerful explosion made him fear for his life. Knowing he had no chance of survival in such a terrifying explosion, he immediately activated the system and traveled to the world of "Tang Dynasty Twin Dragons."

This was the new world he could travel to after breaking through to the second layer of the Qi Practitioner stage!

Xiaoran chose not to go to the worlds of "The Unique Pairs" or "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" because the time was too short, and he wouldn't gain much. It was better to explore a new world!

Xiaoran appeared above a valley, his True Qi wings already depleted, and he suddenly fell from the sky!

Fortunately, there was a stream below, and he splashed into it!

Although he was exhausted, he could still use his lightness skills!

He fell into the water because his eyes were in excruciating pain, and he suddenly went blind.

Xiaoran struggled in the water, and at this moment, he felt someone grab his arm and pull him onto the ground!

Then he heard a young, inexperienced voice in his ear, "Big brother, did you come from the sky?"
