Chapter 98: Red Haired Beast, Mystical Technique Duplication

  This strange beast looks extremely thin, it's almost a skeleton wrapped in skin. Its shoulders, abdomen and ankles are all layered with thick folds.

  "This strange beast is not in its strongest state, and it's unknown how many years it has been starving. Originally, it should have had well-proportioned muscles, but now due to emaciation, there are many folds of skin on its body."

  Xu Yang cautiously observed the strange beast, and slowly said: "Unfortunately, if you were in your prime state, I would definitely flee for my life without hesitation! However, although you have an impressive aura, you are already a shell of your former self, nothing to be feared!"

  That strange beast seemed to understand Xu Yang's words, its blood-red eyes gleaming with ferocity as it let out a loud roar and pounced on Xu Yang.

  Look at the drool hanging from its mouth, it probably already considers Xu Yang as food.

  Xu Yang knew that the blood-colored threads attached to his body were the main reason for luring this alien beast. These blood threads seemed to promote the evolution of the alien beasts, making them extremely precious, causing these alien beasts to fight fiercely over them.

  In a flash, the willow-patterned sword shook out seven sword flowers.

  The strange beast let out a painful howl, but what was surprising was Xǔ Yáng!

  That layer of beast skin was extremely tough, and even the top-grade Xuanwu sword with a pine-wood grain pattern couldn't break through its defense, only leaving white marks on the beast skin and cutting off a few strands of red fur.

  The monster's double claws dug out, and it had four arms. With this one claw, Xu Yang didn't have time to dodge, and could only use his sword to block.

  A loud "clang" of metal collision shook the air, sparks flying everywhere. Xu Yang felt a surge of great force rush forth, almost unable to grasp the hilt of his sword.

  A hint of human-like cunning flashed in the eyes of the strange beast, its red-haired palm moved erratically, and with a sudden burst of speed, the sword flew out of its sheath, spinning rapidly as it soared high into the air before landing with a thud on the crossbeam of the great hall.

  As soon as he made a move, the mysterious device slipped out of his hand. Xu Yang was shocked in his heart, but he didn't panic. He pulled out the wolf-toothed club from the storage ring and swung it down at the strange beast with a whoosh.

  Since cutting doesn't work, let's try bludgeoning! Without flesh to protect it, the monster's bones are as brittle as if they were unguarded. One strike and I'm afraid two or three will break.

  The strange beast stretched out its red furry palm again, grabbing towards the wolf-toothed club. Xu Yang's mouth twitched, and the mysterious pattern on the wolf-toothed club lit up. At an opposite angle, a virtual shadow of the wolf-toothed club appeared, whizzing down to smash into the strange beast's calf.

  The red-haired monster was caught off guard and was hit on the calf with a stick. A cracking sound of broken bones echoed out.

  "This feeling of being a villain... is actually pretty good." Xǔ Yáng smiled slightly.

  The red-haired monster let out a loud roar and struck the ground with force.

  It broke at the bone's location, suddenly bulging into a large package, and then flattening out at a visible speed.

  When the big package completely disappeared, Xu Yang was shocked to find that the broken bones of the red-haired monster had fully recovered, as if they had never been broken before.

  "It's almost like cheating with this kind of recovery speed......" Xǔ Yáng dodged and parried the red-haired beast's attacks while carefully observing.

  Any living being has its flaws; this red-haired beast's recovery ability is so astonishing that it can't be without a cost.

  "It seems to have lost some weight... Compared to its original skinny appearance, now even the tendons and muscles can be vaguely seen." Xǔ Yáng realized that this red-haired beast was recovering from its injuries at the cost of its own life force.

  The power of the alien beast is unmatched, estimated by Xu Yang to be at least 800 jin or more, comparable to that of a strong Xuanzong. Moreover, it also has a crimson energy similar to Xuanli, which can be released from its body to attack.

  "It's a good thing it doesn't understand the mysteries, otherwise it would maximize the power of that crimson energy." Xǔ Yáng unleashed a palm strike 【Flame Giant Hand Seal】, neutralizing the alien beast's crimson energy impact.

  The Red-Haired Giant was stunned for a moment by Xu Yang's mysterious move.

  Xu Yang didn't know why it was stunned, but this was a good opportunity. He beckoned with his hand, and the suction surged, retrieving the Songwen Sword from the beam of the great hall.

  The "reversal pattern" on the wolf-tooth club can indeed harm people, but after all, it is a small trick that cannot be compared to the grandeur of the hall. The alien beast has learned its lesson from being deceived once and now knows how to defend against the virtual attacks of the wolf-tooth club.

  Xu Yang had just retrieved the Songwen Sword when he saw the Red-haired Beast let out a furious roar. A red-haired palm stretched out horizontally, and blood-red energy formed a gigantic energy palm that struck Xu Yang from afar.

  "This is... Flame Giant Seal!" Xu Yang's pupils constricted. This strange beast obviously didn't know any mystic arts, so how could it use this?

  Xu Yang clapped his hands again, and the giant bloody palm dissipated with a loud explosion. Xu Yang involuntarily took a step back, his heart filled with even more shock.

  This strange beast's Flame Emperor Seal has a somewhat similar yet different feeling, but its energy is majestic and powerful, making the authentic Flame Emperor Seal seem weaker by comparison.

  "Seven Kills Absolute Sword!" Xu Yang's Xuanli surged, the sword marks on the Songwen sword suddenly lit up, the sword energy pierced the air, and the fierce tide rolled forward, sweeping towards the red-haired alien beast.

  Ding ding dang dang, countless metallic collisions sounded.

  After the wind subsided, Xu Yang found that this move "Phantom Linked Kill" only cut open the skin of the alien beast, and its entire body was covered with fine wounds, looking quite seriously injured, but in fact it had little effect.

  The beast's eyes spurted blood, panting heavily, its entire body trembling again. Before long, those tiny wounds all healed.

  Xu Yang let out a sigh, encountering such an overpowered, defensively invincible, and obscenely fast-recovering cheating monster, even he felt a hint of helplessness.

  The next move of the red-haired monster left Xu Yang even more shocked.

  Only to see that the strange beast let out a loud roar, its four arms spinning like windmills, and the blood-red energy transformed into sharp sword-like auras, wildly gushing out!

  "This is... Phantom Link Kill!"

  Xu Yang dodged and weaved with great effort, avoiding the killing blow. Fortunately, he was extremely familiar with this move, and the red-haired monster was using it for the first time, a bit awkwardly, or else it would have been very difficult to dodge.

  "I understand now... This monster can replicate my Xuanwu attack! In that case, the only weakness has been made up for..."

  Xu Yang thoroughly calmed down, fighting the monster while thinking of a countermeasure.

  "Every time this red-haired monster uses that crimson energy or recovers from injuries, its body shrinks a bit."

  Xu Yang thought for a moment, his spirit lifted: "Since I can't beat the monster to death, I'll exhaust it to death!"

  Xu Yang's tactics suddenly changed, no longer seeking to kill the enemy with one blow, but instead aiming to cause injury to the Red-haired Beast and engage in a war of attrition!

  Every time the monster is injured, it consumes blood energy to heal itself. Its body also rapidly withers away, and the crimson energy surrounding its body rapidly weakens as well.

  The monster was cut down by Xu Yang's angry slash, opening a three-inch long wound on its chest. The red-haired monster's skin at the wound squirmed and healed at a visible speed.

  But this time, the repair took ten breaths. Xǔ Yáng looked carefully and saw that many parts of the Red-haired Beast's body had lost their skin covering, revealing white bones.

  The monster seemed to have found itself in a predicament, and it suddenly let out a furious roar. Its entire body's crimson energy burst forth once again, extremely dense.

  In the midst of a fierce howl, the four palms of the red-haired monster suddenly slapped out, and four huge blood-red palm prints whizzed through the air! Immediately afterwards, the monster's arms rotated like windmills, emitting a hissing sword energy that formed into four massive waves, surging towards Xu Yang.

  Four Flame Emperor's Fist Seals! Four Shadow Linkage Kills!
