Chapter 88: Chapter 88: Humanoid Fierce Beast, Berserk Attack!

Lu Qingluo’s strength was only at the Eighth Realm of the Martial Disciple stage. Relying on her exquisite Spear Technique, she could barely protect herself. Moreover, the enemies’ target was Fang Xu. The three Blood Robe figures at the Martial Master stage immediately rushed toward him!

Fang Xu, wielding the strange long staff, met the three charging men. He stomped fiercely on the ground, swinging the staff in his hands with the momentum of splitting a mountain, smashing it directly toward the Blood Robe figure with the strongest aura! He knew very well that this person was the strongest. He had to catch him off guard and use his immense strength to severely injure the man first. Only then would he have a chance to keep fighting. Otherwise, once they saw through the peculiarity of his strength, his advantage against Martial Masters would completely vanish!

The heavy, strange wooden staff crashed down toward the Blood Robe figure with terrifying force! Facing the incoming weapon, the Blood Robe figure narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly mocking Fang Xu for overestimating himself. Overconfident, he didn’t even draw the blade at his waist. Instead, he directly reached out his palm, intending to catch the descending long staff. Seeing this, Fang Xu rejoiced inwardly and secretly added even more power to his strike!

BANG!

The long staff smashed viciously into the Blood Robe figure’s palm! At the moment of impact, the man suddenly realized something was wrong. Behind his eerie mask, his pupils shrank, and he immediately tried to change his grip into a punch! Obviously, his realization came too late!

Containing a hundred and twenty percent of Fang Xu’s strength, the staff smashed directly into his palm. The terrifying force transferred through the hand into the Blood Robe figure’s elbow, forcing his bone to violently jut out halfway from the joint! The sight of the stark white bone stained with traces of blood was enough to make anyone’s scalp tingle! The palm of his right hand was utterly mangled, splattering flesh, blood, and bone fragments in all directions!

"Ahhh!"

The Blood Robe figure let out a miserable shriek. Stumbling backward again and again, he clutched his ruined right arm! Having succeeded in one strike, how could Fang Xu give up such a rare opportunity? He lowered his body, moving like an agile ape. Crouching and springing up, he thrust the long staff straight at the Blood Robe figure’s head!

CLANG!

Just as the wooden staff was about to strike the man’s face, the other two Martial Artists at the Third Realm of the Martial Master stage finally reacted. They abruptly drew their blades and knocked the incoming staff away!

Borrowing the momentum of the deflection, Fang Xu spun his body, executing the very same move he had used while sparring with Huang Qingzhou earlier that day! Gripping the tip of the staff with his right hand and leveraging the centrifugal force of his spin, he brought the staff down on the three men, strike after strike, crashing down like Mount Tai!

Faced with such a frenzied assault, the two Blood Robe figures at the Third Realm of the Martial Master stage raised their blades to block while supporting their injured comrade. But Fang Xu’s strength was simply too overwhelming! The strange wooden staff was already exceptionally heavy on its own. Coupled with the compounded force of his spinning, every strike carried terrifying power, battering the three men into a steady retreat!

The howling wind of the staff swept in wave after wave, making the heavily injured Blood Robe figure caught between his two companions sense the faint stench of death. A surge of violent rage rose in his heart as he bitterly resented the Blood Robe scout who had delivered the intel. Didn’t they say he was only at the Third Realm of the Martial Disciple stage!? Given the situation before him, let alone the Third Realm of the Martial Disciple stage, even someone at the Third Realm of the Martial Master stage wouldn’t possess such terrifying strength!

BANG!

Enduring consecutive blows of immense force, the Martial Artist at the Third Realm of the Martial Master stage on the left felt his palms go numb. Blood seeped slightly from the webbing of his hands. Unable to hold onto his long blade any longer, it was smashed away by Fang Xu’s staff! Disarmed, he was forced to endure the storm of torrential attacks with his bare flesh and blood!

BANG!

The first strike landed! Although this Blood Robe figure had marshaled all of his Qi Blood Power to protect his arms, he still felt a piercing agony radiating from his bone! Without giving him any chance to catch his breath, the second strike came crashing down!

Fang Xu knew perfectly well that he absolutely could not give them a moment’s respite! If his offensive rhythm broke and gave the opponents a chance to strike back, let alone three Martial Masters, he would struggle to deal with even one!

However, while his intentions were ideal, reality was cruel!

The Blood Robe group consisted of nine people in total. Aside from the three Martial Masters charging at him, there were also three Martial Artists at the peak of the Martial Disciple stage. Although the three peak Martial Disciples only dared to dart around and take opportunistic jabs from the sidelines, they ultimately succeeded in disrupting Fang Xu’s rhythm.

Just as Fang Xu prepared to push forward and cripple the disarmed Martial Master, one of the peak Martial Disciples beside him seized an opening, thrusting a long blade straight at the small of Fang Xu’s back! This forced Fang Xu to change the direction of his staff. The spinning downward smash morphed into a sweeping strike, blasting directly toward the attacker!

BANG!

The staff, carrying terrifying momentum, lashed into the peak Martial Disciple. It instantly bent the long blade he had held up to defend himself. A series of sickening cracks echoed from his body as he was sent flying, wildly spraying blood mixed with large chunks of ruptured organs!

Instant kill!

Never in his wildest dreams did this peak Martial Disciple imagine that Fang Xu’s strength could reach such an outrageous level!

Although this strike had slain an enemy, Fang Xu’s offensive rhythm was broken. The three Martial Masters he had previously suppressed finally found a moment to breathe. They stumbled a few steps backward, putting some distance between themselves and Fang Xu.

The Blood Robe figure with the crippled right arm carefully scrutinized Fang Xu. He turned to his two companions and warned, "Watch out for his strength. Don’t let him pin you down!"

Hearing this, the Martial Master who still had his weapon nodded. He immediately swung his blade, unleashing a blindingly fast blade aura toward Fang Xu! Seeing the blade aura fly toward him, Fang Xu hastily dodged, narrowly evading the strike! The blade aura slashed into the stone pillar behind him, leaving a terrifying gash!

Seeing this, the disarmed Martial Master quickly grabbed the long blade from the crippled Blood Robe figure beside him. Together with his companion, they launched a relentless assault on Fang Xu! The external Qi Force attacks of a Martial Master dealt massive damage. Striking from both the left and right, the duo completely suppressed Fang Xu, making it impossible for him to fight back.

One lightning-fast blade aura after another flew toward him. While struggling to dodge, Fang Xu was still occasionally grazed by the sharp edges, leaving streaks of blood across his body!

"This can’t go on!" Feeling the growing number of wounds on his body, Fang Xu understood that if this battle of attrition continued, they would definitely wear him out and kill him!

His gaze sharpened. He immediately raised his staff to block two incoming blade auras, then violently hurled the long staff straight at the injured Blood Robe figure! The strange long staff shot toward the crippled Blood Robe figure’s face like an arrow loosed from a bowstring!

Seeing this, the two Martial Artists at the Third Realm of the Martial Master stage frantically spun around to knock the staff away! Taking advantage of this brief window, Fang Xu lunged forward, charging directly at one of the sword-wielding Martial Masters!

Eight Extremes Stepping Technique!

Arriving in front of the Martial Master, Fang Xu forcefully stomped the ground. Borrowing the rebounding force from the earth and the torque of his waist, he directly threw a punch shimmering with a faint red glow, blasting it toward his opponent!

BANG!

The glowing red fist smashed into the Martial Master’s chest, and the power of the Flame Spirit Force invaded his body through the strike! In an instant, an agonizing pain like burning flames erupted inside the Martial Master, causing his aura to falter entirely!

Seizing the moment of weakness, Fang Xu went in for the kill!

Fang Xu lowered his stance. Utilizing the Body Technique attached to the Nine Ape Staff, he pressed close to the Martial Master, unleashing a frenzied barrage of attacks! There were two benefits to discarding his long staff and opting for this method of attack. First, by sticking so closely to this Martial Master, the other Martial Master’s long-range attacks were rendered useless. Second, in close-quarters combat, the opponent’s long blade would become a hindrance. Using one’s own strengths to attack the enemy’s weaknesses was the true path to victory!

Furious punches battered the Martial Master one after another. Although the opponent could keep up with Fang Xu’s speed and block every incoming punch, the Flame Spirit Force carried by each of Fang Xu’s strikes steadily seeped into his body, bit by bit! As more and more Flame Spirit Force accumulated within him, the Martial Master’s moves grew increasingly chaotic. The searing sensation in his meridians severely shackled his reflexes.

"Die!"

Seeing his exhausted opponent reveal a slight opening, Fang Xu immediately took a step forward!

Hand-picked Cannon! Single Sheep Peak!

His right hand flicked away the opponent’s defensive arms, and his left elbow slammed viciously into the man’s chest!

CRACK!

The sickening sound of ribs fracturing rang out! The Martial Artist at the Third Realm of the Martial Master stage was directly sent flying by the brutal impact!
