Excessive ferocity due to caution

"presumptuous!"

"How dare you, mere ants and specks of dirt, raise your swords against me?"

Sensing the intense fighting spirit emanating from Zhao Yi, the strange man couldn't accept it, and his aura became violent!

In his eyes, Zhao Yi's challenge to him was like a rabbit standing in front of a lion, wanting to fight the lion!

How dare I?

How dare I!

The eerie man spoke, angrily rebuking Zhao Yi, only to be met with a terrifying flash of blade light!

It is water, it is fire, it is an irreconcilable bond!

The sword light contained inherent laws, which actually made the strange man feel a sense of pressure!

"You ignorant fool!"

The eerie man raised his hand, and the ominous energy wrapped around his fingers transformed into countless ghostly soldiers, blocking Zhao Yi's strike!

Bang!

Laws clash with the bizarre!

The two fought on the same path!

The supporting actors nearby were almost instantly engulfed by the destructive force and turned to ashes!

The two of them were already stronger than ordinary fierce beasts, and every move they made could cause strange phenomena in the world!

call out!

With a single strike, Zhao Yi launched the strange man into the sky, followed closely by Zhao Yi, who protected himself with the Law of Freedom, isolating himself from the strange man's infection.

With a flick of his wrist, he cleaved the heavens with a single strike!

The blade's light stretched three hundred feet, cleaving through layers of clouds and setting sun. Beyond the blade's light, a line of stars appeared, their radiance reflected on the face of the eerie man.

He blocked the blow.

Wounded, black blood splattered onto some unfortunate spectators, who immediately let out miserable screams, transformed into inhuman monsters, and then melted away along with the karma on their bodies!

The others, witnessing this, were horrified and retreated, quickly using the laws of nature to protect themselves!

"I underestimated you..."

The eerie man laughed sinisterly.

"How dare you hurt me."

"However... you've fallen for their trap."

Zhao Yi, standing in the void, frowned slightly.

A sharp pain shot through my heart.

A ghost-faced flower bloomed on his heart.

Carrying an ancient curse and misfortune, it corroded his body!

"Fool! How could you have hurt me if I hadn't done it on purpose?"

The eerie man laughed arrogantly.

But his laughter soon stopped abruptly.

"This is……"

His tone was shocked, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

Zhao Yi's lips curled up slightly.

"It seems you sensed it too..."

He harmed the strange man, which caused his karma to be tainted by the ominous presence behind the red lacquered wooden door. However, the strange man was also marked with the symbol of "repayment" because he harmed Zhao Yi!

...

[Skill: Red Robe - Repayment]

[Effect: Those who have harmed you will be marked and will suffer more damage from you.]

...

【Skill: Red Robe - Severance】

[Severance: Damage you inflict on units marked with the 'Repayment' mark will be irreparable and cannot be regenerated.]

...

The strange man tried to heal his wounds, but found that the ominous gathering power was stopped by an irresistible force!

He looked up and stared intently at Zhao Yi.

"What exactly are you...?"

Black blood seeped from the corner of Zhao Yi's mouth. The Touch of Oblivion rapidly multiplied in his heart, desperately fighting against the terrifying curse behind the red lacquered wooden door. Although it could not eliminate this ominous curse, it could buy Zhao Yi a long time!

"I'm just someone who gets itchy fingers."

Zhao Yi smiled slightly.

"You cursed me, and I cursed you... Now let's see who dies first!"

After saying that, he drew his sword again!

With sword drawn, the Taotie roared, its ferocity overflowing with the sound, nearly causing many actors who had retreated dozens of miles away to faint!

The eerie man flipped his palms over, gathering all his ominous power, his entire body shrouded in an invisible chaos!

boom!

The two fought wildly and violently, colliding in the void!

The strange man was extremely powerful. Although the two were not in the same realm system, judging from their strength, he was more terrifying than Zhao Yi!

But Zhao Yi's bloodline skills were simply too powerful.

With the mark of 'repayment', Zhao Yi's every attack was elevated to a new level, leaving the strange man overwhelmed!

On the surface, Zhao played a pair of threes, but in reality, he had a royal flush.

This gave the strange man a major headache.

But this wasn't what truly terrified the strange man. What really made him feel threatened was the technique – Severance!

The wounds Zhao Yi left on him... cannot be healed by any means!

This means that if this drags on, he will surely die!

"What kind of mark is this, that it's so stubborn!"

"It's impossible to dispel..."

The strange man's heart sank as he looked at Zhao Yi, who was willing to exchange injuries with him.

What he was most proud of was the ominous aura emanating from behind the red lacquered wooden door.

Anyone from the outside world who gets even a little bit of it will be completely destroyed in no time!

But this crazed man in front of us was actually able to withstand the corrosive influence of the ominous aura!

Although Zhao Yi's condition is also getting worse as the ominous aura erodes, it seems that he will be the first to give out!

The strange man couldn't accept that he would be killed by the weakling outside the door!

"If it weren't for that damned guy... I wouldn't be in this predicament!"

He gritted his teeth as he thought of the man in white.

In a moment of distraction, Zhao Yi seized the opportunity, his blade flashing like a startled swan, and he severed one of the strange man's arms!

A large amount of black blood gushed out, and an ominous aura accompanied by a pervasive black mist!

The strange man cried out in pain and quickly retreated, but Zhao Yi was not about to let him go.

"You were injured and could have fought me, but now... you don't have the chance."

Zhao Yi has extremely high combat intelligence; he knows what kind of enemy to fight and what kind of combat methods to use.

"Kill me...and you will die too!"

No matter how extraordinary you are, you will ultimately be destined for annihilation!

Seeing that he was at his wit's end, the strange man in front of him wanted to fight to the death and exchange blows with Zhao Yi, but how could Zhao Yi give him that chance?

When the enemy attacks, we retreat; when the enemy retreats, we pursue!

The strange man could only watch helplessly as Zhao Yi dragged him to his death!

Faced with such a cunning Zhao Yi, he was so angry he almost vomited blood!

The more severe his injuries became, the more anxious he became, and the more stretched his resources became!

boom!

The two exchanged a palm strike, and the strange man staggered backward, his face ashen, all the domineering aura he had shown when he first appeared gone!

"Ren Wudi is indeed an outstanding person, capable of leaving you with such severe injuries."

"Although you tried your best to hide it, you were completely exposed once we started fighting."

Zhao Yi dragged his long sword and walked step by step toward the strange man who was covered in wounds, clutching a bloody hole in his chest and leaning against a corner of the palace.

"One last question... Is Ren Wudi dead?"

The eerie man, panting heavily, looked at Zhao Yi and sneered:

"certainly."

"There's absolutely no way an outsider could survive behind that wooden door!"

Zhao Yi looked slightly surprised upon hearing this.

Ren Wudi... actually walked behind that red lacquered wooden door!

The eerie man chuckled.

"What a pity... I was hoping to do something with this body."

"But it's alright, you've been infected by the ominous aura... the wooden door will come for you soon."

"We'll meet again then."

My darlings, go to sleep early, goodnight!
