All the evil beasts in the world, I feed on demons and monsters

Chapter 220 Victory of the Sword and Armor!
A martial arts arena.

The training ground is located closest to the main gate of Jia Chen Zhou Lou. It is a landmark building, with a cylindrical shape and angular edges on both sides. The eaves are carved with mythical creatures.

At the very top, two red ribbons adorned with golden runes hung down from an extremely high place.

The training ground gates were wide open, and the inside was bustling with activity.

As soon as Ji Ran stepped in, he felt the space in front of him tremble!
Having absorbed a full 9 grams of Boundary Bo, he had an extremely clear sense of space. This huge training ground was filled with unstable fluctuations in space.

Upon entering, Ji Ran saw only a circular hall that was a full kilometer long, with countless messages flashing on the coiled dragon pillars.

Many people are coming and going in it.

At the very center stands a towering white jade pillar that reaches straight into the sky in the open hall!

The walls surrounding the hall were lined with countless vermilion doors.

[The first time the traveler has entered the training ground has been detected.]

[Awarded the Medal of Military Martial Arts.]

[Note: The Martial Arts Medal can be worn in front of the character; its current rank is "Ninth-Class Seahorse Medal 0/10". Ten victories with a win rate higher than 50% will advance the rank to "Eighth-Class Rhinoceros Horn Medal".]

[If your win rate falls below 50% after ten wins, your Seahorse Medal will be reset.]

"Fuck!"

The man with the red plaque stared at the white seahorse medal in front of Ji Ran and said speechlessly, "No, buddy."

"You're already level 3, and you've never been to the training grounds?"

"Ah."

"I'm truly impressed by you. How did you manage to survive those dozen or so worlds? Did you spend them all in the River of Oblivion?"

Ji Ran smiled without saying a word.

So far, I have only traveled through three worlds.

The man with the red staff drew his nunchucks and said, "Judging by your appearance, are you one of the government officials?"

"Yes."

There was no point in hiding it, Ji Ran readily admitted. The Special Operations Department was the head of the entire Jia Chen District; official status here only brought benefits.

"Hey, I knew it."

The old man with the double red stick said calmly, "The Mirror of Oblivion is good, but if you rely on it, you will find that your skill specialization will slowly get stuck at the master level."

"Come on, let me teach you a lesson."

"Let me show you what a rogue cultivator can do!"

Casual cultivator?

Ji Ran's heart skipped a beat. Was this guy a free spirit?
Shuanghua Honggun seemed unwilling to say anything more to Ji Ran, and directly beckoned Ji Ran to walk towards a vermilion gate on a nearby wall.

He took out his medal and affixed it to the vermilion gate.

The next moment, he pushed open the door, and through the crack in the door was another space!
Ji Ran saw a arena surrounded by flowing water, with a vermilion stone surface, and it was several hundred meters in size.

[The Double-Flower Red Staff (Sixth-Rank Beast Medal) has extended a martial arts challenge to you.]

After confirming it, Ji Ran felt the door through which the Double Flower Red Stick had entered exert a pull on his Seahorse Xun.

Ji Ran immediately walked over and pushed the door open to enter.

moment!

Under a clear blue sky, he and the two red sticks were seated in the audience.

The arena ahead, with its small bridge and flowing water, was deserted.

"Hurry up."

"Let's get this straight, you came of your own volition. I don't want to waste time with the weak, let's end this in one round."

The Double Flower Red Stick was already impatient. Once he shattered this level 3 Practitioner, his Qi would be restored significantly, allowing him to continue his normal martial arts practice.

"it is good."

Ji Ran took out a Qi (mortal). Although he didn't gain much Qi in the Jinmen World, he accumulated quite a lot by killing Yakshas and Fire-type Ghost Soldiers in the Southern Han World.

Haima Xun seemed to be a funnel swallowing Qi (or mortal energy).

[Whether or not you have a spirit pet: Zashiki-warashi, Kaze-beast, Vlad.]

“Carry Vlad.”

[This consumes one unit of Qi (mortal energy).]

Ji Ran's current goal is simply to use combat to adapt her body to the use of blades. She'll learn to use her spirit pet later.

Of course, Vlad was an exception; he was his own armor.

The next moment, Ji Ran's gaze suddenly fell on the arena!

He suddenly looked behind him, and the huge audience seats were completely empty. His figure and the figure of the double-flower red stick had all turned into a thin mist.

It's like the state when using the Earth Temple function.

interesting.

Ji Ran checked himself and found that his physical condition and overall state were exactly the same as normal.

The training ground... copied all of my stats!
This also means knowing all aspects of your situation!
boom!
At this moment, Shuanghua Honggun clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ji Ran and said, "Second-tier Nightmare Master, Level 4 Nirvana Rebirth Master."

"Please advise."

Ji Ran's pupils contracted!
No wonder he's a free spirit!

Even if someone isn't a villain, joining the Special Operations Department is tantamount to imprisonment for a Nightmare Master. Few people would feel comfortable employing them.

Ji Ran thought of the Skin Walker from before!
The skin walker who was strangled by the ghost golden sheep in the graveyard was a level 6 cultivator who was mainly a Nirvana cultivator!
The alchemical iris also provided a hint.

[Target Threat Level: Critical!]

"First-rank Phoenix Guest, please enlighten me."

boom!
Before Ji Ran could finish his last word, the figure with the red sticks had already disappeared!
So fast!

In the blink of an eye, his figure had already arrived in front of him!
bass!
Kunwu instantly left his body and slashed down at the double-flowered red staff in front of him!

"ended."

The double-flower red stick's voice was relaxed, even a little lazy.

Click!

He twisted his nunchucks around the blade of the Kunwu sword in an instant! And on his forehead, a pair of ferocious orange-yellow eyes tore open!
Four eyes!

This incredibly familiar feeling instantly reminded Ji Ran of a demon he had once slain—the Four-Eyed Yaksha!
Instantly!

Ji Ran remembered where she had seen the name "Double Flower Red Stick" before! It was in the Traveler's Guide of the Southern Han World!
now!

The red stick with double flowers grinned, revealing a ferocious smile.

At that moment, all his teeth turned into shark-like serrations!
boom!
He pressed down hard!
The immense force caused Ji Ran to lean forward! And the Double Flower Red Staff did not loosen its grip on the Kunwu Blade!
As he pressed down, the tip of his nunchuck in his right hand rose up and stabbed fiercely towards Ji Ran's face!
The forearm holding the nunchucks was burning hot, the skin had turned crimson, and the veins were clearly visible, like a blood-red grid branded onto the skin!

Nirvana!
That's the smell of boiling blood!

The terrifying power was catalyzed by the bloodline. Among the seven professions, the purest melee violence profession unleashed a chilling power at this moment!

A glint of seven colors flashed in Ji Ran's left eye.

Dynamic visuals!
Positioning!

At this critical moment, Ji Ran managed to turn his head to the side with difficulty!

boom!
The nunchucks grazed his ear and poked him, but the image of the red-flowered nunchucks on his left knee appeared before his eyes!
The stab and the knee strike erupted almost simultaneously!
No, the poke was a feint; the real killing move was the knee strike that came with a sharp whistle!
He instantly saw through his evasive maneuver!
It's... a positioning test!
The Four-Eyed Demon's Position Measurement!!!
"Vlad!"

Ji Ran let out a low roar!
call--

The ring on his left hand immediately spread out, as if a red stream of light had spread all over his body!

Bloodscale armor instantly materialized!
Inch of space!

Just as the knee strike was about to land, Ji Ran's figure flashed!
They appeared behind the Double Flower Red Stick!
A wildfire!

boom--

The Kunwu blade in his hand was burning with intense heat, the veins on his forearm bulged, and the blade in his hand spun slightly, tearing through a gust of wind!
Wind and Thunder Blade Manual - Wind Slash!
The spiritual barrier erupted a second time!
Except for not using the Frightening Phoenix Technique, Ji Ran has already unleashed his normal, maximum power!
The wind sheared and gathered!

The wind fanned the flames, condensing into a crimson wind that formed flames on Kunwu Mountain!
"Um?!"

Ji Ran's sudden disappearance was clearly unexpected by the Double Flower Red Stick!
But his movements were by no means slow!

He stood with his back to Ji Ran, showing no sign of backing down!
Click!
Fine, dense scales appeared on his body! They were the same tight, slippery scales as those of the Four-Eyed Yaksha!

At the same time, he leaned to the side, raised his right elbow high, and slammed it down hard on Ji Ran!

boom!
The scorching heatwave brought with it the howling of the wind!
Ji Ran stared intently at his attack, her blade flashing relentlessly!

cut!
"Ah."

The laughter of the double-flower red stick was mocking.

Ji Ran's eyes flickered!
When Shuanghua Honggui stepped back and delivered an elbow strike, his right elbow slashed towards his own chest and abdomen like a battle axe! But his right wrist still gripped the nunchucks, twisting and swinging them!
The nunchucks, propelled by the chains, swung upwards and smashed towards Kunwu! If they hit, Kunwu would veer to the side, missing the double-flowered red staff, and he would also have to take an elbow strike!
and!

The position where Shuanghua Honggun's right foot retreated was precisely where his foot would land during his mid-air slash!
What a quick response!
What exquisite combat awareness!

This is the kind of opponent I've been looking for!

Having spent a month traveling through Tianjin, Ji Ran had encountered almost no worthy opponents. After emerging, thanks to his 4.07 physical attributes, he easily defeated a level 3 cult member with sheer brute force!

Only now did Ji Ran feel as if he had returned to the Southern Han Dynasty, back to the heart-pounding and trembling experience of fighting on the tightrope!
Whoosh!
The nunchucks whistled through the air, but failed to strike the Kunwu Blade!

"Um?!"

Shuanghua Honggun's eyes suddenly trembled! He saw that Ji Ran's blade, which had been slashing down rapidly, actually slowed down in mid-air!

He narrowly escaped the blows from the nunchucks!
how come!
His full-force strike just now couldn't possibly stop like this!

It's a spiritual obstacle!
At this moment, as the nunchucks swept across, the spiritual barrier around Ji Ran once again drew upon Kunwu, slashing down rapidly!
Quick and slow knife!

With the spiritual barrier in place, Ji Ran can exert force in any direction, making his attacks unpredictable!

At this moment, neither side has any room to maneuver!
Only collisions! Bloodbath!
boom! ! !
The arena beneath the two suddenly exploded!
Ji Ran's figure hurtled out like a cannonball! He gripped the Kunwu sword, and a streak of crimson light flashed across the blade, sending him flying thirty or forty meters!

"puff!"

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his lower abdomen felt as if it had been hit hard by a sledgehammer. The intense cramping pain and burning sensation made it almost impossible for him to straighten up!
"grass!"

In the center of the arena, the Double Flower Red Stick, who hadn't retreated an inch, gasped and shouted, "What kind of knife do you have?!"

At this moment, a blood-red gash ran from his shoulder to his upper arm, cutting open a scarlet wound!

Boiling blood evaporated from his wound, releasing scalding heat!

The double-flowered red stick looked shocked!

I materialized the Yaksha Demon when I was level 1!
Now that I'm level 4, my scales can at least withstand level 5 armor penetration! In fact, thanks to the slippery nature of my scales, even level 6 armor penetration blades will have a hard time causing damage!

But! This kid's knife sliced ​​through the scales and went deep into the flesh!
"Spiritual tool, 3-forged."

"Damn it, you rich bastard!"

Upon hearing this, the double-flowered red stick cursed, saying, "I truly despise you..."

He suddenly paused and said, "By the way, is this a benefit offered by your government now?"

"Are there any spots left if I join now?"

Ji Ran took a deep breath, slowly straightened up, and felt much better.

The Bloodscale Armor absorbed a large portion of the force, and the armor itself only absorbed the shock.

He looked at the double-flowered red stick, grinned, and said, "Defeat me, and I'll tell you."

"Nima!"

Upon hearing this, Shuanghua Honggun lost face, as he had previously stated that he would come in and smash him to pieces with a stick.

After two rounds, he still got stabbed!

The other party, this young phoenix guest, seems to be completely unharmed!

"Having good equipment doesn't make you superior!"

The red-handed man roared, "I'll beat you to death right now!"

Click!

His muscles twitched, instantly clamping down on the wound! At the same time, the nunchucks he held in his hand were also covered in flesh and blood, growing scales and transforming into something alive!
First-tier Nightmare Master Class Skill: Materialization!

However, the objectified target of the Double Flower Red Stick is a four-eyed yaksha!
The nunchucks in his hands slowly turned crimson, and their surface pulsated like a heartbeat!
It's a skill of the Nirvana One, Boiling Blood!

He used it on weapons!
boom!
With a sudden stomp of his double-flowered red stick, he leaped into the air!
A terrifying heatwave swept over him!

The cracked ground released rubble, which instantly melted! The terrifying force pushed the intense heat outwards, leaving a trail of charred stone behind it!

The boiling blood of the Nirvana One is the most powerful driving force of the body, propelling the figure with the double red sticks into a whirlwind, like a black lightning bolt!

Boom boom boom——

That terrifying force of speed tore the entire arena apart!
Ji Ran narrowed his eyes slightly.

He also wondered if he could defeat a second-tier opponent if he fought desperately.
The flames of Kunwu in Ji Ran's hand instantly turned a deep black!
Tiger and wolf spirit!
The devoured blood turned into a terrifying blackness, entangled in the surging fire blades!

The second stage of the Wrathful Beast!

Greedy Beast! Attack and damage taken increased by 30%!

In Ji Ran's eyes, anger and greed surged in a dark aura.

He gripped the Kunwu tightly, its blood-scale armor gleaming with light!
Skill - Block: Reduces frontal physical damage by 30% for 15 minutes.

Focus Bead: Increases concentration by 50%!

It doesn't dissolve bones, it affects the whole body!

On the beast's bone net, pale bone armor reappeared, as if large patches of white scales had appeared on its body surface!
The complete disintegration of the bone is extremely dangerous! Once it is completely shattered, Ji Ran will be severely weakened and unable to exert any strength!

But now, it doesn't matter!

I just want to see how far my own strength can go!
boom.

Ji Ran stomped his foot on the ground, his muscles bulged, and his spiritual barrier and taut muscles exerted force simultaneously!
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Then it suddenly exploded!

boom! ! !
Violent air ripples, like frenzied waves, tore apart the entire ground! They spread out in shattering waves a full ten feet long!
Ji Ran's Wind and Thunder Step stirred up a fierce wind!
Wind and Thunder Blade Manual - Wind Slash!
Countless fiery blades turned crimson and condensed on the blade!
Ji Ran stared intently at the black figure!

The premonition of the caged bird tells me that the opponent will definitely be able to dodge my knife!

He has perfectly mastered the Four-Eyed Yaksha's positional measurement skills!
Then... tell him not to move!
Exploding scales!

Whoosh whoosh—

Ji Ran's arm scales exploded instantly! They densely covered the double-flowered red staff!
[You are currently suffering from a fiery attack, which deducts 1% of your health per second for 81 seconds. The effect will disappear once you stop moving.]

"Um!?"

The speeding Double Flower Red Stick was suddenly startled by this prompt!
He wanted to stay still, but immediately realized it wasn't the right time!
But it's too late.

A moment's distraction had cost him time to assess the situation and react! The two charging beasts had already collided!

"Jingluan!!!"

Ji Ran let out a low roar!
The wind-cutting blade, under the surge of power, emitted a sharp roar!

The increasingly condensed wind blades whipped up flames, emitting a pale, blazing light!

4.07, comparable to the physical strength of a second-tier expert!

The second stage of the Wrathful Beast technique! Nearly five times the power erupts!

The startled phoenix roared and unleashed nine slashes based on its physical body!

"Well done!"

The roar of the Double Flower Red Stick was filled with madness!
His eyes were filled with ferocity. He simply raised his hand to block Kunwu, while his other hand swung up the nunchucks and slammed them hard towards Ji Ran's chest!
boom! ! !
The flames exploded instantly, engulfing everything!
A deep knife wound, several feet long, suddenly appeared beneath Ji Ran and Shuanghua Honggun's feet!
The shattered dust and gravel were burned into lava that scattered everywhere with a "splat, splat" sound.

puff!
Ji Ran's figure flew backward, his whole body bursting with thick blood. The blood scale armor on his chest was melted open, leaving a fist-sized hole that protruded directly from his back!

boom!
All the incorruptible bones in his body were pulverized!

Ji Ran rolled on the ground for dozens of meters before shakily getting up.

His injuries were sustained thanks to the Bloodscale Armor and Vlad's regenerative abilities!
But the veins bulging all over his body were swollen with blood cysts! Just like Xie Yao before, the blood in his body began to boil!

When it pierced through him, the flesh and blood of the nunchucks exploded inside his body, igniting his blood!
"grass!"

Amidst the ashes, Shuanghua Honggun's voice was hoarse as he said, "Good equipment, fucking amazing."

Bang!

At that moment, the Kunwu Blade fell to the ground, its entire blade covered in scalding blood like a red silk ribbon.

Defense Penetration +1!

Armor Penetration +1!

The sharpness of the Kunwu Blade easily sliced ​​through the scales of the Double Flower Red Staff, and the wind blade, condensing into a wildfire, exploded within his body!

With enough strength, Ji Ran sliced ​​open his entire chest cavity along the neck of the double-flowered red stick!
At this moment, Shuanghua Honggun had torn and charred wounds on his neck and chest, and his upper chest cavity was almost completely burned away!
Pfft!

The figure of the double-flowered red stick suddenly exploded, turning into a cloud of mist.

[Zhuoxian wins, Haima Xun 2/10 (Cross-rank battle, +1 victory)]

After being prompted, Ji Ran couldn't take it anymore.

The Bloodscale Armor and Undying Bones withstood most of the physical attacks, but the Boiling Blood Power of the Nirvana One exploded within his body, dissolving his internal organs.

puff!
The next moment, Ji Ran also turned into mist.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already in the audience.

Shuanghua Honggun looked over with a hazy face, staring at Ji Ran in silence for a moment.
