Chapter 10 Bloodbath at the Mountain God Temple, Facing the Blood Impermanence
Jia Huan, Wang Ren, and Li Shun entered the mountain god temple, where they were greeted by a middle-aged man who looked neither human nor ghost, with an unusually ferocious face.
Beside this middle-aged man stood ten men dressed in dark blue robes, holding curved swords, with gloomy faces.
Among these gloomy men, the one-eyed wolf appeared the most ferocious.
The moment Jia Huan saw the menacing middle-aged man, his gaze sharpened, his heart skipped a beat, and he blurted out:
"So you're 'Blood Impermanence,' the leader of the Blood Shadow Cult? Did you kill Zhang Cheng, a junior officer in the Imperial Guard?"
Upon hearing this, a cold, unyielding smirk appeared on the lips of the grotesque middle-aged man.
He looked at Jia Huan with the gaze one would give an ant, and then said:
"Hahaha! That's right, I killed that junior officer in the Imperial Guard. I didn't expect that even though I'm so far from the capital, you Imperial Guards still managed to track me down. It's just a pity that even if you tracked me down, it doesn't seem to be of much use!"
"You look unfamiliar to me. You're definitely not some high-ranking member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. You're probably just three strongmen or captains, right?"
"With the martial arts skills of the three of you, forget about catching me; you'll all be doomed here today!"
"Men, get them! Take these three out!"
At Xue Wuchang's command, his ten men immediately charged towards Jia Huan and his two companions.
Faced with this display of force, Wang Ren and Li Shun couldn't help but gasp in shock, their hearts filled with fear.
Although the two of them possessed some martial arts skills, they were certainly no match for the combined attack of ten Blood Shadow Cult members.
Not to mention that behind these ten Blood Shadow Cult members is Blood Impermanence, the leader of the Blood Shadow Cult.
Xue Wuchang is a genuine top-tier martial artist, whose overall strength is already very close to that of a post-natal powerhouse!
Jia Huan's reaction to the current situation was completely different from that of Wang Ren and Li Shun.
When facing the Blood Impermanence before, Jia Huan was actually a little nervous.
Because he could clearly sense that Xue Wuchang was stronger than himself.
Therefore, if Xue Wuchang were to make a move now, Jia Huan would most likely be doomed.
However, Xue Wuchang did not choose to attack directly, but instead had his men surround and attack them first, which gave Jia Huan an opportunity!
"You two can protect yourselves. I'll take care of all ten Blood Shadow Cult members!" Jia Huan said.
"Yes, Lord Jia!"
After saying that, Jia Huan immediately rushed forward.
"Bone-Crushing Palm!"
With a low shout, the edge of his palm instantly turned as black as ink, carrying an overwhelming force as he slashed fiercely at the wrist of a cultist.
"Snap!"
The crisp sound of bones cracking was enough to make your teeth ache.
The cultist screamed as the scimitar slipped from his hand, his wrist bent at an unnatural angle.
Jia Huan, seizing the opportunity, pressed his advantage and struck the man in the chest with a palm strike. With another muffled thud, the man flew backward like a kite with a broken string, knocking over two people behind him.
"This is a tough problem! Let's take it on together!"
Upon seeing this, the one-eyed leader of the cult members revealed a fierce glint in his eyes and was the first to swing his sword.
The other cultists swarmed forward, and in a flash of swords, they overwhelmed Jia Huan.
Faced with the attack, Jia Huan remained calm and instead laughed, his smile carrying a hint of madness.
He took a deep breath, and a fine, black pattern, like the scales of black iron armor, faintly appeared beneath his skin.
The protective power of the "Mysterious Armor Body Forging Technique" has already manifested!
"Mystic Armor Fist!"
He stopped dodging, clenched his fists, and the black patterns on his fists suddenly solidified, as if he were truly wearing an indestructible heavy armor of black iron.
He threw a punch at the one-eyed leader's curved blade!
"clang!"
The sound of metal clanging echoed in front of the temple.
The iron knife was knocked out of shape by Jia Huan's punch, and the huge recoil caused the one-eyed leader's hand to split open, and the long knife flew out of his hand.
Once Jia Huan gained power, he was ruthless and his movements were like a tiger among sheep.
He used both fists and palms, sometimes employing the cunning and ruthless "Bone-Crushing Palm," targeting the enemy's vital joints. Wherever his palms passed, the sound of bones cracking echoed.
At times, the "Mysterious Armor Fist" moves with wide, sweeping motions, striking head-on against head-on, smashing the enemy's weapons away and shattering their bones.
A cult member attempted to ambush Jia Huan from behind, slashing at his back with a curved blade.
Without turning his head, Jia Huan swung his left arm backward, shattering the curved blade. He then delivered a precise "Bone-Shattering Palm" strike to the attacker's throat.
The man didn't even utter a sound before collapsing to the ground, clutching his neck.
The battle is one-sided!
Jia Huan's figure moved among the Blood Shadow Cult members like the embodiment of death.
Every time a palm strike is unleashed, someone suffers broken bones and fractured tendons.
With each punch, someone would cough up blood and fly backward.
His movements were concise and efficient, without any frills, only a combination of pure strength and speed, and the terrifying destructive power brought by the "Mysterious Armor Body Forging Technique".
"ah!!!"
"My hand!"
"Back off! This kid's inhuman!"
Screams, cries of alarm, and the thud of weapons hitting the ground mingled together.
In just a short while, all ten Blood Shadow Cult members had fallen!
As these cultists fell, the system's voice rang in Jia Huan's mind.
[The host has successfully slain a wicked person and gained 100 Deep Blue attribute points.]
[The host has successfully slain a wicked person and gained 80 Deep Blue attribute points.]
[The host has successfully slain a wicked person and gained 120 Deep Blue attribute points.]
……
After killing all ten-plus Blood Shadow Cult members, Jia Huan gained a total of 1100 Deep Blue attribute points!
This instantly gave him confidence.
Xue Wuchang sat on the straw mat and watched as Jia Huan slaughtered all his men without making any move.
In his view, most of these Blood Shadow Cult members were newly recruited and were merely tools; once they died, he could simply recruit another batch, so there was no need to feel sorry for them.
However, Jia Huan in front of him seemed somewhat interesting to him.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you're quite an interesting kid."
Xue Wuchang chuckled softly, his voice as cold and sinister as a viper's hiss.
He slowly straightened up, and an oppressive aura instantly enveloped the entire mountain god temple.
"Ten people became your dead in the blink of an eye. It seems you are a wolf cub in human skin."
As he spoke, he slowly and deliberately drew the blood-red longsword from his waist.
The moment the blade was drawn, it emitted a piercing hum. Dark red true energy, like a living thing, meandered upwards along the blade, devouring all the colors of the setting sun, making the world seem to be left with only that eerie blood red.
"Unfortunately, a wolf cub is still a wolf cub. It hasn't even learned how to bite yet, but it's already eager to show its teeth."
Xue Wuchang flicked the spine of the blade with his thumb, causing the blade to tremble and emit a soft moan of yearning to drink blood.
He tilted his head slightly, his gaze roaming unabashedly over Jia Huan, as if he were appraising a fine piece of porcelain that was about to be obtained, his eyes full of the playful and cruel mockery of a cat toying with a mouse.
"I'm in a good mood today and don't want to see blood."
"Since you've trained your body to such an extraordinary degree, it would be a shame to chop it up."
"Why don't you come back to the church with me, and I'll smash this black armor of yours inch by inch, and see if the blood flowing out is also red! Hahahaha!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Wuchang's aura surged once again.
He's about to make his move!
Jia Huan stood before Xue Wuchang, feeling almost suffocated by his imposing aura, but Jia Huan remained completely calm.
Because he still has his biggest trump card!
"Dark Blue, give me some points!!!"
