96 Blood demon

"Demon! A demon!"

A company of soldiers from the Great Sun Empire cried out loud and were running in all directions.

Behind them, there was a bright red light blinking and it formed a shape of a Blood Python. The python chose its target and started biting the target!

In fact, it had already done that.

"Ssss..."

The huge python looked real and the scales on its body were very clear. It rolled its red tongue out and one of the soldiers who ran away the slowest was being swallowed. The blood of the soldier was absorbed and it spat back out a dry corpse.

It seemed like it was playing with its prey. It didn't kill the soldiers all at once and instead, it caused the soldiers to spread out and run away. Then, it would catch them one by one and drink their blood, like a legendary demon.

"He hie…..The Lifeforce in the blood of the soldiers is just nice and the blood tastes good. This is benefitting me!"

There was a person on top of the Blood Python. The person was wearing a blood-red colored robe and was demonic.

"How dare you, demon!"

A middle-aged man from among the troops the Empire shouted at the demon and jumped to attack the aggressor with his sword. He was also a Core stage cultivator evenly matched with the blood red-robed demonic cultivator.

He then projected his voice to a distance away. "Go back and call for reinforcement!"

"Hehe…..Do you think I would let you guys leave so easily?"

The person gave a demonic smile.

"Sssss!"

The Blood Python roared and the next moment, the opponent didn't have time to defend himself and was trapped by the tongue of the Blood Python.

"How can you defeat me so easily!!, We are both at the same level in cultivation!"

That knight roared crazily while feeling regretful.

"Such an opportunity to obtain blood openly. Fortunately, all the masters are busy fighting the higher-ups of these annoying sects….. Hehe, their blood contained the lifeforce equal to tens of thousands of people. If their blood was given to me, I'm afraid I would be able to reach the peak of the core formation Realm instantly and I could try for the Nascent Soul stage and myself a demonic soul….."

"Evil bastard!"

That commander had no choice but could only see his own blood being taken away and he would soon become a dry corpse.

"You will be punished…..for your sins! You demons would see face the wrath of the righteous sects"

Before he died, his voice became hoarse and he cursed.

"Hahaha…... I will be punished?"

The red-robed man waved his hand and the dry corpse flew out. The corpse was split into a few portions as it landed on the ground. "I will still have to be fearful of punishments for my sins? Right now, who has the capability to punish me? Haha…..Haha….."

He laughed loudly and was full of arrogance.

However, the laughter suddenly stopped, as if a duck had been grabbed by its neck.

The remaining soldiers who had managed to survive looked up and saw a giant white shadow flying down quickly like a lightning. Within seconds, it was already at the head of the Blood Python.

"Chirp! Chirp!"

The white shadow moved and it revealed the Bird that was bluish-white as if it was made of ice. It revealed its claws and landed on the Blood Python with much force.

"Sssss!"

The Blood Python let out a sorrowful cry and was pushed away. A blood-red fog started to spread and there was a foul smell.

"A Blood Demon, I haven't seen one in a long time!"

On the back of the bird, there was a young man, he had short white hair and a fan that he waved around while sitting on the back of the bird.

"Are you…..?!"

The Blood Demon could recognize that the person was definitely a core disciple from the Spirit Ice Sect from the robes and the haughty demeanor of the person in front of him.

"I was given the task to patrol the skies but I didn't expect to meet an enemy. Don't even think of escaping today!"

The young man looked at the dry corpses that were lying on the ground and sighed.

"Humph! Stop bragging!"

The Blood Demon's face got serious.

He had decided on the spot to retreat he knew clashing with such a man would seriously hurt him in the least even if he managed to win somehow.

However, he was emboldened to face his opponent as he was only dealing with one person currently!

The Blood Demon looked in all directions to make sure the opponent was really alone. Then, his eyes were filled with anger. "I will gladly accept your blood then!"

...

"The sky shall drown in blood!"

Facing one of the core disciples of a reputable sect, Blood Demon did not dare to hold back his abilities. His opening move was the highest level of the Blood Technique.

SPLASH!

Streaks of blood appeared in a shield surrounding him, making it look like he was engulfed in blood. It was quickly expanding as Blood Demon charged towards the young-man.

Even though this technique looked not so dangerous it was fatal if one was engulfed into it. Once it contacts the skin, it would cause the flesh and bone to disintegrate instantly.

"This is indeed the Demonic Blood Technique!"

Looking at this, the young man became serious as he ordered his mount to dodge to the side.

"Rains of Ice!"

In response, the young man steadily made a hand gesture and a layer of rain and cloud appeared.

"Haha...Did you think my technique was a normal blood technique?"

Looking at this, Blood Demon broke into a mocking smirk. It was as though he was disdainful of the man for underestimating him. However, his smirk widened into a shocked look of disbelief.

This was because, under young man's manipulations, relentless drops of rain poured out of the clouds into the center of the blood-colored dome.

Splash!

After a few huge loud pops, the dome that could engulf the entire area was made immobile. What was left was the white frozen hill of blood-ice that was beginning to disperse, melting away into the soil beneath!
