Chapter 19: Fighting a Spirit Master

"Disgusting." Yuan said after tasting a bit of Du Hai's blood from the tip of his fingers and looking at the Soul Master who was enveloped in Xiao Hua's aura, he spoke. "I wonder what the taste of the Spirit Master's blood would be like."

"It's okay to free him now, but be careful not to let him run away," Yuan said as he looked at Xiao Hua, whose expression or gaze towards him did not change even after seeing his brutal display earlier.

"Alright, be careful, Brother Yuan." Xiao Hua said as she released Spirit Master from her aura and became on alert to save Yuan if something happened to him and prevent Spirit Master from escaping.

Yuan took out the Wind Sword, and the aura around him changed into sharp as a sword, making those looking at it unconsciously tense due to its sharpness.

"I will kill you!!" - the Soul Master exclaimed with red eyes as he looked at Yuan with killing intent.

The Soul Master honestly didn't care about the death of the Du brothers, but he couldn't let them die while he was in charge of protecting them because the Du family master would have killed him without a doubt.

That was why many stars tried to break free from Xiao Hua's aura closing on him, but he couldn't, and when he tried to speak, his voice didn't come out.

Thus, he could not help but watch Yuan torture the Du brothers and then kill them helplessly.

'May the family master forgive me if I return the murderer's head.' - thought the Soul Master as he attacked Yuan with full force.

"Wind Palm!!" - the Spirit Master exclaimed as he threw his palm at Yuan Yuan, and an extremely strong wave of wind erupted from it.

"Blood Sword Strike!!" Yuan Slash shot out a red-coloured Anti Wind Palm and charged towards the Spirit Master.

BOOOOOOOM !!

The Wind Palm collided with the bloody sword strike, causing a huge explosion, but it didn't affect Yuan and Soul Master too much.

Soul Master attacked Yuan with a barrage of punches, and Yuan tried to block it with his sword.

Yuan fought back with all his strength against the Soul Master's blows, but unfortunately, he was struck by a few blows, causing his clothes to be torn and a few light wounds.

Yuan Yuan was improving every moment and could keep up with the Soul Master bit by bit, which caused the Soul Master to panic.

"Damn you monster!" the Soul Master exclaimed as he backed away because Yuan had overwhelmed him in the exchange

"What are you?!!!" - Soul Master couldn't help but feel afraid of Yuan.

"Human?, perhaps." Yuan paused for a moment and answered uncertainly to the Soul Master's question.

"Human? … That's impossible, freak!" cried the Soul Master as he used up his life force to kill Yuan. "I will kill you even if it's the last thing I do with my life."

"Tornado of Destruction!!" - the Soul Master exclaimed as he put all his Qi into this strike and even put his life force into it.

A huge tornado appeared in front of the Spirit Master and charged toward Yuan Yuan with great speed.

"Don't interfere, Xiao Hua." Yuan shouted and stopped Xiao Hua, who wanted to destroy the tornado.

Xiao Hua stopped hearing Yuan's command and looked at him with a worried look.

"Allow me to experience the Spirit Master's power firsthand," Yuan said as he charged towards the tornado with his physical body, without using his Qi to protect it.

"Arrrrrrrgh!!" Yuan roared in a pained voice as the hurricane cut through his skin and flesh, causing him immense pain.

Although Yuan Yuan could easily kill a Spirit Master and destroy a hurricane if he used the Splitting Heaven Sword Slash, he didn't do it with a purpose.

And that was that he wanted to use the tornado to strengthen his physical body because he noticed that his physical body had become more solid after passing the heavenly tribulation because of the lightning that destroyed his skin and burned his internal organs.

Although raising the level of cultivation increases the strength of the body, it does not improve its quality, but Yuan knew that destroying and repairing helps to raise the quality of his body by strengthening the flesh, skin, tendons, blood vessels, etc. .

That's why Yuan decided to use this attack to improve the quality of his physical body even more.

Yuan Yuan didn't know if this would affect his True Body, but he didn't care much because he needed to get stronger here so that he could resolve his True Body in this vast world.

"Arrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!" Yuan roared again and seemed to be in more pain than before because the impact had reached his internal organs.

"..." - Xiao Hua looked at Yuan with anxious eyes as she bit her lower lip until blood spurted out.

"..." Even the Soul Master froze in shock and looked at Yuan in disbelief.

The Soul Master hadn't expected someone so crazy to receive a blow from the Spirit Master of Despair, burning his life force for this attack with his physical body, without using Qi or treasures to protect his physical body.

"Cough!!…cough!!" Yuan coughed up blood along with bits of internal organs.

Fortunately for Yuan, the hurricane did not last long and quickly disappeared because its power was within Yuan's physical body, destroying him from within.

"Sh-Xiao Hua...cough!!...kill him...cough!!...but don't destroy...his storage ring" - Yuan said incoherently as he coughed up a mouthful of blood and internal organs.

Hearing Yuan's command, Xiao Hua unleashed a huge killing intent and charged towards the Soul Master like a hungry beast.

'Damn, I have to run away so quickly!' - thought the Soul Master and tried to run away quickly upon hearing Yuan's command - 'Hey, why is the world upside down?'

This was the Soul Master's last thought before his body and head fell to different places.

After killing the Soul Master, Xiao Hua charged at Yuan and used his Qi without reservation to stabilize Yuan's condition.

"Brother Yuan, hold on!" Xiao Hua said while crying, and she took out a bottle from her spatial bag and poured the liquid inside onto Yuan's body.

Seeing this, Yuan Yuan closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and circulated the Heaven's Secret Art to absorb the medicinal liquid that Xiao Hua had given him.

While Xiao Hua was taking care of Yuan, Heaven Nether was in a state of panic at the killing intent that Xiao Hua unleashed, causing an urgent meeting to be called by all the outstanding power in Nether Heaven.

Little did Xiao Hua know that the killing intent she had unleashed had enveloped the entire Nether Heavens. From experts to ordinary humans, everyone felt Xiao Hua's killing intent.

In these few moments, a few million people had died due to Xiao Hua's killing intent.

After 3 hours .

"Hmmm" Yuan muttered as he woke up because he had passed out after a while after closing his eyes.

"Brother Yuan!!" - Xiao Hua exclaimed and hugged Yuan as she wept uncontrollably.

"Sorry." Yuan said in a gentle voice as he patted Xiao Hua to calm her down.

"Why did Brother Yuan do such a thing!!" - Xiao Hua exclaimed with fear and anger evident in her voice - "Why should you put your life on the line when you can become stronger without having to do such a thing!!"

Xiao Hua knew that Yuan wasn't wrong with what he did because a farmer needed to face death a lot to get opportunities and resources, and this was a good experience for Yuan.

But at the thought of losing Yuan, she felt her soul tear apart, and she couldn't bear the thought of living without Yuan.

"Sorry, but this is something I had to do" - Yuan said resolutely because he needed to get stronger or he would die of Heavenly Punishment if it came again - "I don't know if Heavenly Punishment will come again or not and I can't guarantee that it won't be stronger Before this, I have to be stronger to face anything that tries to take my life."

"..." - Xiao Hua fell silent as she thought of the Heavenly Passion. She knew that Yuan Yuan was right, because he would definitely die if he encountered the Heavenly Punishment, because it would definitely be stronger.

"Then what will Brother Yuan do now?" Xiao Hua asked, pulling Yuan's chest and wiping away her tears.

"Currently, I want to collect storage rings… or so I want to say, but I need to put on new clothes first," Yuan said with an embarrassed smile because his clothes that he bought some time ago are now unusable.

Yuan quickly went behind a tree and quickly changed into another set of black and white clothes embroidered with gold.

"Ha-ha-ha." - Xiao Hua burst out laughing at Yuan's return, as if she had seen the funniest thing in her life.

"..." Yuan looked at Xiao Hua puzzled but quickly knew what Xiao Hua was laughing at as he felt the cold wind hit his hairless head.

"Xiao Hua, please, I want the Longevity Seed." Yuan said in a pleading voice as she hid his head because his current appearance was too funny.

Yuan was elegantly and noblely dressed as a young master of a noble family, but he was bald, which spoiled his appearance, which should have given an impression of elegance and nobility.

"Here you go, Brother Yuan." - Xiao Hua said as she pulled out the Longevity Seed after she managed to stop laughing, but the smile did not disappear from her lips.

Yuan quickly picked up the Longevity Seed and ate it without hesitation.

<I ate the seeds of longevity>

<You have attained +100 years of life>

After the system notification appeared, Yuan's hair began to grow until it reached his buttocks.

Seeing this, Xiao Hua took out a hair tie from her bag and handed it to Yuan Yuan.

"Thank you." Yuan said and took the hair band from Xiao Hua and tied his hair into a ponytail.

"Now it's time to collect the spoils." Yuan exclaimed excitedly as he walked over to the Du brothers' corpse and picked up their storage rings and the mountain of gold coins that he used to torture the Du brothers and put them into his storage ring then moved to the Soul Master's corpse and picked up a ring Storage as well.
