The man in red stood quietly on the spot, his body surrounded by a thick Blood Qi. His scarlet eyes were surging with a terrifying killing intent that could not be concealed, and the nauseating smell of blood filled the air. It spread over a radius of several kilometers.

On the other hand, Gu Xi’s gaze was firmly locked onto the man in red. He arched his body slightly, and the muscles all over his body were already taut, like a ferocious beast that was about to hunt its prey.

This was the second time he had fought head-on with the demonic race. Although he had won the previous battle with Ye Wushuang, he still did not dare to underestimate the outer realm demonic race.

The methods of the demonic race were unpredictable. One moment of carelessness and one might die.

“Let me see what kind of strength you have.” Gu Xi stared straight at the man and said in a low voice.

“As you wish.” The man in red grinned.

In the next moment, his figure blurred and turned into a blood-red rainbow.

At the same time, the Blood Qi in the world seemed to be attracted by something and spread out in all directions. Everything that touched the Blood Qi made a sizzling sound, it was actually completely corroded.

“What a strong corrosive property.” Gu Xi’s eyes narrowed slightly. His expression was somewhat grave.

He did not dare to be the slightest bit negligent. With a wave of his large hand, numerous spiritual energy barriers immediately appeared around his body, completely enveloping his entire body within them. Immediately, he tapped his toes and immediately met the blood-colored long rainbow.

The distance between the two of them was not far to begin with. In the blink of an eye, they came into contact with each other.

Bang bang bang —

Boom boom boom —

A series of explosions rang out one after another. The two of them had an extremely tacit understanding and did not choose to use any spirit skills or spirit tools. Instead, they chose to engage in the most primitive form of hand-to-hand combat.

Accompanied by a series of explosions, a large amount of Blood Qi in the world was scattered. However, it quickly gathered again. The spirit energy that was not under control, mixed with a dense amount of Blood Qi, spread out in the surroundings, destroying almost everything in an instant.

Boom–

Another deafening explosion sounded, and both of them retreated explosively.

At this moment, the red-clothed man’s clothes were a little messy, and the Blood Qi surrounding his body had become much thinner, but there were no obvious injuries on his body.

On the other hand, Gu Xi, who was on the opposite side, had long disappeared from the spiritual energy barrier that covered his entire body, and there were many signs of corrosion all over his body. Fortunately, it only corroded her clothes or skin, it did not hurt his foundation.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. I didn’t expect the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to be able to nurture a disciple like you.” The red-clothed man smacked his lips. He was clearly a little surprised by Gu Xi’s strength.

If it was any other disciple, they would have already died in the first round.

“I’m also very curious. What is the purpose of you coming here?” Gu Xi calmly tidied up his clothes.

Hearing this, the red-clothed man’s pupils constricted, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

Although Gu Xi’s words were not explicit, the meaning in her words was clear that he already knew that the Blood Spirit Society was the secret of the demonic race in the outer realm.

“Although I don’t know how you know…” The red-clothed man shook his head, and the Blood Qi around his body became denser and denser. It even began to gradually boil, and the nauseating smell of blood was almost tangible. “However, based on these words of yours, I’m afraid that you will definitely not leave this place alive today.”

The man’s tone was firm. Clearly, he had absolute confidence in his own strength.

Gu Xi chuckled. He clenched his large hand and a longsword appeared out of thin air. He pointed his sword at the man and raised his head slightly. “Be a good boy, and tell me your motive, and perhaps I will be able to give you a quick death.”

“You should wait until you defeat me before you say these words.” The red-clothed man laughed in disdain, rolling blood flowing out from his sleeve. Soon after, a blood-colored longsword also agglomerated in front of him. “Of course, before that, I hope that you are able to withstand this sword strike of mine.”

The blood-colored longsword was raised high by the man. A large amount of Blood Qi in the world gathered towards the longsword. The spiritual energy in the air began to boil endlessly.

“Blood Demon Slash.”

The red-clothed man’s eyes suddenly widened, and the Blood Qi in the air quickly gathered.

“Go to hell!” He laughed loudly, and the longsword slashed toward Gu Xi from afar.

The Blood Qi in the air whistled down, and the pungent smell of blood made Gu Xi’s face turn pale. The sharp sound of rushing wind rang out, but at this moment, it was like the whisper of a demon.

“Sword Drawing Technique.” Gu Xi forcefully suppressed the physical discomfort. The long sword in his hand did not strike out in a flowery and leisurely manner. Instantly, the Sword Qi that filled the sky rose up, and a Sword Qi that was several hundred feet long roared out, it directly met the Blood Qi that rushed over.

Wherever the Sword Qi passed, even the void left a long mark.

Puchi —

Boom —

As soon as the two came into contact, the thick Blood Qi began to try to erode the Sword Qi. However, the sharp Sword Qi immediately cut a gap in the Blood Qi.

The Blood Qi had a temporary flaw. The Sword Qi followed up and instantly broke through the Blood Qi, whistling toward the red-clothed man behind.

In the face of this, the red-clothed man did not have the slightest intention of dodging. A large amount of Blood Qi actually adhered to the surface of the Sword Q,following the continuous advancement of the sword qi. The shocking corrosive power of the Blood Qi had already corroded the powerful Sword Qi to the point that there was not much left. Compared to before, it was a completely different matter.

In the blink of an eye, the Sword Qi had already approached a few feet in front of the man.

The man in red struck out with his palm, and a large amount of Blood Qi surged out. Before the Sword Qi landed on his body, it had completely corroded it into nothingness.

Seeing this, Gu Xi frowned, and his expression gradually became solemn.

What he did not expect was that this perfect Sword Drawing Technique could not harm this person.

“Your strength is indeed very good.” The red-clothed man licked his tongue, and his scarlet eyes stared at Gu Xi. He continued, “No wonder Boss wants to clean you all up.”

“It’s not over yet,” Gu Xi reminded him coldly.

The man was slightly stunned. It was obvious that he did not know what Gu Xi meant.

However, in the next moment, the ground began to tremble. Many complicated patterns appeared under his feet, revealing a huge formation.

“Mountain-back Array Formation, activate.”

Gu Xi’s lips moved slightly, and with a tap of his toes, he disappeared from the spot.

As soon as he finished speaking, the red-clothed man in the formation instantly sank down. Even his feet had sunk into the soil below, and his expression became even more unsightly.

He had never expected that Gu Xi would actually use such a move when the two of them were facing each other. Moreover, he had not noticed anything strange at all.
