Chapter 38: Defeated and Fleeing (Seeking Collection, Seeking Recommendations)

  "Roar!" Just as Zhang Huaming was shocked, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky above, making the originally dark night sky even darker.

  "Kai Yan?" Zhang Huaming raised his head and looked up, only to see Kai Yan's true form actually appearing above his head.

  "Brother, come up quickly, hurry, it's dangerous." Kartel's voice echoed in Zhang Huaming's heart.

  "Whoosh!" Zhang Huaming sprang into the air without hesitation, landing directly on Karyn's massive body. The scene before his eyes was one of carnage: Dragon City was in ruins, with people constantly falling from the city walls, and the originally sturdy city gates had been shattered by a powerful expert using profound martial arts.

  "Whoosh!" As soon as Kaiyan waited for Zhang Huaming to make his move, he swiftly flapped his wings and flew rapidly towards the Death Forest.

  "Kaiyan, what's going on? How did Longhua City fall so quickly? And that old guy, how did he self-destruct? What about the injuries on your body?" Zhang Huaming asked while using his true energy to stabilize his figure. According to reason, the strong men of Dongguo had already been drawn away by their side's three people, if it was a battle between armies, Longhua City shouldn't have fallen so quickly! Moreover, Kaiyan's opponent was only a low-level Martial God cultivator, it's impossible that Kaiyan wasn't his match, right? How did things become so dire?

  "Brother, the opponent is not just those few powerful experts. I originally thought it would be a quick battle, but who knew that another mid-tier martial god cultivator appeared out of nowhere and joined forces with that old man to attack me? I was forced to transform into my true form to fight back, but who knew that in less than a hundred breaths' time, another top-notch martial god cultivator emerged to replace those two experts? You should be able to guess what happened next." Karyn's tone was filled with exhaustion, and it seemed like he had expended a great deal of energy in the previous battle.

  "Damn, brother, hold on tight, that old man is catching up again, I'm going to speed up!" As soon as Kaiden's words fell, the speed suddenly increased several times, almost throwing Zhang Huaming directly off his back. If it wasn't for Zhang Huaming using his thousand-pound drop in time, he would probably have become a human kite by now.

  Just as Zhang Huaming was stunned, a powerful aura descended from the sky, instantly enveloping Karyn and Zhang Huaming. In an instant, Karyn's speed, which had almost reached the speed of light, slightly trembled. The next moment, it was unclear what method Karyn used, but he spat out a mouthful of dark blue blood, and his figure directly tore through the void to arrive above the Forest of Death.

  "Kayen, be careful." Zhang Huaming's expression changed, because Kayen's massive body suddenly fell straight down.

  "Kayan, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Huaming's figure quickly arrived under Kayan, his hands firmly pressing against Kayan's abdomen, using the Wu Dang Mountain's Ti Yun Zong Jue technique to slow down Kayan's falling speed.

  "Brother, my beast yuan has been depleted. Just now I used the White Tiger clan's escape secret method again. I'm afraid I'll fall into a deep sleep." Karyn's words stopped abruptly before he could finish speaking.

  "Hold on, I must hold on." Zhang Huaming gathered the remaining true energy in his body to his hands and feet, trying to reduce the impact of Karyn's fall as much as possible. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't reduce the falling speed by much, after all, Karyn's true body was too heavy.

  Whoosh! The towering trees surrounding them were directly crushed by Kayan's enormous body, and fortunately, these towering trees helped to slow down the impact of Kayan's fall. Even so, Zhang Huaming was shaken by the speed of Kayan's descent, causing his seven orifices to bleed. If it weren't for his naturally quick reflexes, he would have been crushed into a pulp by Kayan.

  Pffft! Zhang Huaming, who had just struggled to get up, suddenly spat out a blood arrow. His body swayed several times, and fortunately, there was a giant tree beside him that he leaned against, or else he would have fallen down.

  "Grandma's tears, this time the problem is big." Zhang Huaming checked the situation inside his body and smiled bitterly. The true energy in his body had been completely depleted, and the aftereffects of the battle were gradually emerging. The injuries on the surface of his body were also getting heavier.

  "Whoosh!" A loud, piercing sound filled the air. Before Zhang Huaming could even react, a figure appeared in his line of sight. The newcomer's shadow had yet to fully materialize when an overwhelming aura burst forth, sending Zhang Huaming stumbling backward. His body sank low, and he nearly fell to his knees, but the pride and arrogance from his past life continued to prop him up.

  "Hey!" The newcomer seemed to want to tease Zhang Huaming, and with a slight increase in momentum, he pressed down on Zhang Huaming's entire body, causing his bones to creak and crackle, making people worry that his body might be crushed at any moment.

  "Kid, not bad at all. You're actually able to withstand my three-layered pressure with just your beginner-level Wu Dou Wang cultivation. No wonder my nephew was so determined to kill you." The newcomer said with a face full of admiration and a smile.

  Zhang Huaming supported himself with one hand on the giant tree beside him, and stood up straight with difficulty. His face was cold as he said, "You are the one who injured Karyn?"

  "Karyn?" The newcomer was slightly taken aback, his eyes scanning the silent and motionless Karyn on the ground before smiling and saying: "If you're referring to her, then I'm the one who hurt her. What's it to you? Are you looking to avenge your partner or something?"

  "Haha!" Zhang Huaming sneered, his face immediately turning icy cold: "Of course, if you can't kill me today, I will definitely avenge this grudge."

  "Hahaha!!!” The oncoming person seemed to have heard some earth-shattering joke and burst into loud laughter.

  "And you? Do you think you still have a chance to survive today?" The newcomer's smile vanished, his expression changing in an instant, becoming menacing and deadly. The surrounding space seemed to freeze solid in that moment.

  "Listen up, kid. My name is Xue Wuying. If you can die by my hand, then you can die with no regrets." As soon as Xue Wuying finished speaking, the atmosphere in the surrounding space suddenly surged.

  Bang! Bang! Bang! Zhang Huaming's body was compressed by the powerful aura of Blood No Shadow, bursting out several fist-sized blood holes. The blood seemed to be spraying out like it was free, instantly dyeing him completely red. He could no longer hold on to his pride, and his body slowly slid down against the towering giant tree.

  Xue Wu Ying seemed to be very confident, and when Zhang Hua Ming fell down, he didn't even glance at him. Instead, he turned around and looked at the massive body of Karyn in front of him, slowly raising his arm.

  "Ah!" Just as Xue Wushuang was about to swing his hand, his expression changed slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He turned around, and for some reason, his body trembled slightly.

  "You're still alive?" Blood No Shadow exclaimed in surprise as he looked at Zhang Huaming, who was covered in blood and struggling to get up.

  "Cough...cough...cough..." Zhang Huaming coughed several times, and the fresh blood in his mouth gushed out again, dripping down his chin.

  "Want to kill Karyn, you have to kill me first." Zhang Huaming managed to squeeze out a sentence, and his entire body shook again, as if it were a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.

  "Hmph!" Blood No Shadow snorted coldly and waved his hand casually.

  Bang! A fierce impact sounded, and Zhang Huaming's body was seen entering the giant tree behind him as Blood No Shadow swung his hand. Instantly, a human-shaped hole appeared in the giant tree.

  "What a ridiculous guy." Xue Wu Xing sneered and turned his head again, raising his hand once more.

  "Bang!" A loud crash sounded, and a human figure slowly emerged from the giant tree's hollow, each step taken with great slowness.

  "What?!" Xue Wuying's face really changed color this time, he didn't dare to believe that a martial arts master of the Wu Wang realm could actually withstand his own fifth-layer aura compression and not die, let alone withstand his fifth-layer strength and not die from one hit. This was probably something that no one would believe if it were told, but the fact was that it had happened, and in an outrageous way at that. If Zhang Huaming hadn't died this time, then once this matter became known to outsiders, his reputation would be on par with those of the Wu Shen realm.

  Haha! Zhang Huaming burst out laughing, but his smile was too ferocious at this moment. With the blood on his head, his laughter gave people a very terrifying feeling. Even Xue Wuying, such a super master, was scared by his smile and unconsciously took a step back. If this got out, Zhang Huaming could be proud of himself.

  "Little kid, go die." After retreating a step back, Blood No Shadow discovered that he had lost his composure and was actually intimidated. Suddenly enraged, he stretched out his hand, causing the space around him to distort instantly. It seemed like this time he had made up his mind to make a killing move, because his warrior's heart told him that the young man in front of him was too dangerous. This feeling he hadn't experienced for many years, so he chose to annihilate him completely, with no room for error, because he knew that if this young man were to grow up, he would inevitably bring about a disaster that would destroy the Blood family.

  "Is this the true power of the God of War?" Zhang Huaming felt a suffocating sensation wash over him, feeling an overwhelming sense of helplessness. At this moment, he felt like a small ant facing an elephant, and with just one move from the elephant, his own life would be ended.

  "Is this death? Yu Yan, farewell." Zhang Huaming closed his eyes, silently reciting a phrase in his heart, and in an instant, Yu Yan's smiling face flashed before his mind, the next moment, a smile also appeared on his own face.

  "He's still smiling even when death is imminent." Blood No Shadow saw Zhang Huaming close his eyes, yet a smile was still on his face. For some reason, a surge of anger rose up in his heart.

  Just as Bloodless's palm was about to grab Zhang Huaming, the space around them, which had been frozen in place, suddenly emitted a glass-shattering sound.

  "Who? Who is it? Come out." Blood No Shadow's expression changed greatly, and a thin layer of bloody light suddenly appeared all over his body, rotating around him. He was on guard in all directions, like a frightened child.
