How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 223 - 0219: Foreign Strongman
Chapter 223 -0219: Foreign Strongman
“My old injuries have not healed, I’ve slept for so long, my Primordial Qi Bloodline is nearly exhausted…”
The blue-eyed youth’s complexion was gloomy, his face pale and weak.
Behind him, his sinister Blood Wings suddenly dimmed, resembling the wings of a bat, they weakly retracted into his body.
Seeing this.
Chen Yu’s figure quickly darted into the passageway leading to the ground.
Puh!
The blue-eyed youth gritted his teeth and extended an index finger to pierce his brow, a drop of dark essence blood emerging from the fingertip.
“Break!”
With a press of the finger, the drop of essence blood ignited, transforming into a huge finger shadow capable of splitting mountains and tearing earth, the blood light soared to the sky, accompanied by the sound of thunderous rumbling.
“This is bad!”
Chen Yu dove into the ground passage, sensing an overwhelming oppressive presence.
Even burrowing into the rock walls, he felt not a hint of safety.
All Chen Yu could do was flee at top speed and reinforce his defenses as much as possible.
Boom! Bang!
The massive blood-colored finger shadow struck near where Chen Yu had entered the rock wall.
In an instant.
The underground rock walls cracked and collapsed, huge chunks of rock layer peeled off, disintegrating into powder.
Wa!
Separated by a dozen yards of rock layers, Chen Yu was hit by the remnants of the finger strike’s force, and he spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
Crack! Crack!

The Blood Scale Dragon Shadow covering his body, along with the dark blue light film of his beast hide armor, shattered in succession.
It was hard to imagine the true might of that one finger strike.
Even through a dozen yards of rock layer, the power of that strike had been reduced by over eighty percent.
The remaining ten to twenty percent was enough to break through the Blood Scale Dragon Shadow and the beast hide armor’s protection.
Chen Yu knew very well that these two layers of defense would not necessarily be shattered with one blow even if Elder Mao, a seasoned Innate at his level, struck with full strength.
At last.
The Copper Statue Technique’s true body layer and his physique’s own defense were still strong enough to leave Chen Yu seriously injured.
Yet this wasn’t everything!
Boom bang!
The collapsing of the rock walls blocked the passage to the surface, striking Chen Yu with a massive blow.
Apparently, this was the real intent of the blue-eyed youth.
To cause a collapse of the rock walls to obstruct the path.
“To kill my Blood Dragon Beast, a descendant of the Blood-sucking Clan, if I let you escape, my lifetime of reputation…”
A cold, grim smile appeared on the increasingly pale face of the blue-eyed youth.
But soon.
The smile on his face froze.
Chen Yu, buried under the rock walls, was not only unmaimed or dead as imagined, but also forcefully surged upwards.
Through Spiritual Sense scanning.
The young man in the rock wall burst into a glaze of Blood Crystal Flame light, and the surrounding rock walls melted away like snow in an instant.
“That is… Blood Crystal Flame!”
The blue-eyed youth could not help but exclaim aloud.
With just one glance, he recognized the Blood Crystal Flame.
“How could such a powerful Blood Dao Sacred Flame fall into the hands of a mere Postnatal Stage junior?”
The blue-robed youth’s face was clouded with dismay, quite aggrieved.
However.
Having just expended essence blood, he was now in extreme weakness and had no strength to block further.
“Break!”
Inside the rock wall, as Chen Yu’s body shone with the Blood Crystal Flame light, the Blood Scale Dragon Shadow reappeared behind him, breaking through the blocked passageway.
Fortunately.
The passage was not as deep as they had imagined.
A few breaths later, Chen Yu burst through the surface along with a cloud of dust and debris, the Blood Scale Dragon Shadow retracting behind him.
Nearby on the surface.
Ye Luofeng, He Qiuyun, and others were not too far away.
Just now, they had felt the tremors of an earthquake from deep underground, as a massive breath surged, suffocating.
Subsequently.
An indistinct dragon’s roar, accompanied by a bloody shadow and a cloud of dust and debris, erupted from the ground.
The group felt an invisible pressure of vital blood, causing their bodies and spirits to tremble.
“Chen Yu!”
After the dust settled, a young man in beast hide armor, bloodied, emerged from the debris.
Cough cough!
Chen Yu coughed violently, his back soaked with cold sweat, feeling the terror of having walked through the gates of hell.
“Chen Yu, you’re the only one who came out; where is Luo Haochen?”
He Qiuyun asked.
Nearby, other Qi Transformation Realm talented youths wore puzzled expressions.
This underground passage.
So far, only Chen Yu and Luo Haochen had entered in succession.
“Luo Haochen is dead!”
Chen Yu took a deep breath, calming his blood and feeling the rapid healing of his internal injuries.
Dead?
Everyone present, including He Qiuyun, Ye Luofeng, the Black Robed Puppet Master, were somewhat dazed.
Many showed incredulous faces.
That Luo Haochen, known as a talented individual with an Ancient Bloodline, had strength that was counted among the top in this “Hunting King” competition.
Furthermore, Luo Haochen had also cultivated the White Shining True Flame.
“Everyone! There has appeared an extremely terrifying alien powerhouse in these underground passages, we must retreat quickly!”
Chen Yu’s expression tensed.
He dared not linger a moment longer nor had the time to explain further; after signalling Ye Luofeng with a Spiritual Sense communication, he immediately withdrew.
Whoosh!
Chen Yu turned into a faint shadow, rushing towards the direction of the Hunting King starting point.
“What alien? What nonsense!”
“Stay there! Where is the Blood Dragon Beast Demon Core?”
Some of the present Postnatal Stage talented youths were utterly unconvinced.
Immediately.
The Black Robed Puppet Master and two Postnatal Stage youths from the Chu Family made their move to intercept.
Crack!
From the metallic arm of the Black Robed Puppet Master sprung a Purple Iron Claw Hook that flashed like lightning towards Chen Yu.
At the same time.
The other two Postnatal Stage youths each unleashed a spatial swordlight and saberlight, both attacks respectable among those in the Postnatal Stage.
“You know not what’s good for you!”
Chen Yu wore a cold smile, despite his pacifying words he was met with suspicion.
He was unapologetic.
Extending a bronze-shining large hand, the Blood Scale remnants barely flickered, “Ding,” he caught the Purple Iron Claw Hook with his bare hands.
This time.
He temporarily boosted the Dragon Bloodline in his arm, instantly feeling his strength and defense surge by nearly double.
“Rise!”
Chen Yu bellowed as he grabbed the Purple Iron Claw Hook and swung it like a Meteor Hammer, tossing the Black Robed Puppet Master high into the sky.
“Ahh…”
The Black Robed Puppet Master screamed in shock as he flailed his limbs in terror while ascending.
The onlookers stood dumbstruck, watching the Black Robed Puppet Master turn into a speck in the distance.
Boom!
A few breaths later, the Black Robed Puppet Master crashed into a forest, sending a thunderous roar and dust flying everywhere.
As for the knife and sword beams from the two other Postnatal youths, Chen Yu easily disregarded them with the defense of the Copper Statue Technique and the animal hide armor.
“The amplification of strength by this Dragon Bloodline is astonishing.”
Chen Yu was slightly surprised.
Just now, he had used his bloodline without any clear signs, fearing no exposure.
Swoosh!
Chen Yu quickened his pace, continuing on his journey.
Back at the site, the youths looked fearful and dared not pursue any further.
“Seeing Chen Yu fleeing in such panic, there must really be some terrifying existence down below.”
“No matter, the Blood Dragon Beast Demon Core has most likely fallen into his hands.”
The crowd conversed in low voices.
Eventually,
most maintained their distance but followed Chen Yu’s lead back to the hunting ground’s departure point.
An hour later,
team after team gathered at the hunting ground’s departure point.
Chen Yu, amidst the crowd, felt slightly relieved as he looked at the several pavilions atop the mountain.
This place was guarded by several Guiyuan Realm powerhouses and should not be feared even by that weakly awakened exotic powerhouse.
Chen Yu had an intuition that the Blue-eyed Youth from the Blood Wing Clan would definitely not give up pursuing and killing him.
Another two hours passed.
Dawn approached, and the sky was soon lit with the daybreak’s first light.
“The Hunting Competition, three days have passed.”
A Flying Bird Knight in the Innate Stage with a Yun flag flew over the heads of the crowd.
“Guest Chen, can we claim the first place in this Hunting Competition?”
Fu Hong asked cautiously.
At that moment,
rumors were circulating among the teams that Chen Yu had obtained the Blood Dragon Beast Demon Core.
“Of course!”
Chen Yu was relaxed and smiling.
Just then,
he locked eyes with Ye Luofeng’s clear and icy gaze.
Ye Luofeng’s beautiful, jade-like face seemed unsettled, showing a trace of unease.
Chen Yu chuckled maliciously, his eyes sweeping over the cold and aloof girl’s pristine beauty.
Ye Luofeng bit her lip nervously; her heart raced as she averted her gaze from Chen Yu’s somewhat fiery stare.
“This is great!”
“Securing the title of Hunting King means hefty rewards for every member of our squad.”
“What a pity that Fu Jing died by the hand of that Blood Dragon Beast.”
The youths of the Fu Family discussed among themselves, their overall mood more joyous than worried.
The title of Hunting King would greatly enhance the Fu Family’s fame and attract talents.
…
Before long,
the hunting teams had returned to the mountain peak’s starting point.
“Now, let’s tally the results.”
The Prince Manor dispatched a Guiyuan Realm official and several Innate Stage powerhouses to count the hunt’s achievements.
With so many watchful eyes, no one could play any tricks.
Chen Yu was feeling delighted within.
The individual Hunting King’s rewards were quite substantial.
Moreover, he also had beside him… this ethereally beautiful girl who was an additional “reward”!
“Why hasn’t Luo Haochen shown up?”
In a pavilion belonging to the Prince Manor, Marquis Yunlai and others showed a hint of surprise.
Upon hearing this,
the gaze of many young hunters shifted towards Chen Yu.
Chen Yu hesitated, wondering how to explain the death of “Luo Haochen.”
This matter could indeed be troublesome.
After all,
the battle underground was a duel between two, without third-party hunter verification.
But just then,
Swoosh!
A residue of blood wings streaked across the sky from afar.
“Human junior… prepare to die swiftly!”
The silhouette of the Blood Wing Blue-eyed Youth emerged from the bloody afterglow.
In a moment,
a chilling blood radiance tinted the surrounding sky, spreading a formidable oppression.
“It’s barely even midnight, and he has regained so much strength.”
Chen Yu’s heart chilled.
Furthermore, this person was able to pursue him with such precision.
“Who goes there!”
Several Guiyuan Realm elders present shouted, releasing powerful auras.
Swish!
The Blood Wing Blue-eyed Youth spread his blood wings, increasing his speed, and materialized a bloody blade in his hand.
“Senior Fu, this person wants to kill me!”
Chen Yu cried out in alarm.
He never expected the exotic powerhouse to harbor such a strong desire to kill him, daring to come all the way to this mountaintop.
Boom!
The blood blade in the sky, emitting crackling bloody electric glints, expanded to twenty to thirty zhang and slashed towards Chen Yu.
“Stop!”
Fu Yangzi reacted first, flashing into the air.
Whoosh!
Fu Yangzi spun his hand and unleashed a series of deep, cyan ancient tree shadows, enveloping a radius of several dozen zhang.
Boom!
The blood blade bursting with electric glints struck the ancient tree shadows, instantly disintegrating upon impact.
Fu Yangzi’s form shook and he staggered back, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
Moreover, his arm and shoulder bore several scorch marks.
Chen Yu was shocked; Fu Yangzi’s strength surpassed that of Yunyue Sect’s Supreme Elder Gongyang, but he was defeated by a single strike from the Blood Wing Blue-eyed Youth.
In just half the night, the Blue-eyed Youth had recovered a fraction of his power, yet he was so fiercely formidable.
“The Blood Wing Clan! How dare you invade Yun Zhao Country!”
Marquis Yunlai in the Prince Manor’s pavilion shouted sternly, his eyes flashing sharply.
