Chapter 945 Fallen Shadow (2/2)
As time passed, however, he seemed oblivious to the increasing amount of mist sticking to his body...
Swish!
The mist faintly rippled some distance behind him as an almost invisible silhouette stealthily shot forward. A blow containing terrifying power viciously headed for Zhou Yuan’s back.
Just as the palm was about to hit him, the corners of Zhou Yuan’s lips curved slightly as he muttered to himself, “Finally come out?”
Spirit light flickered between his brows as Spirit fire erupted and swiftly enveloped his body.
Chch!
The thick mist that stuck to his body was instantly burned away by the Spirit fire.
The Genesis Qi circulation in his body immediately returned to normal.
The Heavenly Yuan Brush appeared in his hand, pulsing with majestic Genesis Qi as it thrust towards a certain spot behind him like lightning.
Thud!
Two forces collided, causing a berserk shock wave to sweep outwards.
Zhou Yuan’s figure jerked slightly as he took a step back, and the silhouette was also forced back. Realizing that Zhou Yuan had not been bound by the mist, it immediately turned around to hide itself in the mist.
Zhou Yuan chuckled as he flicked a finger at it, sending out a dozen balls of Spirit fire.
However, the Spirit fireballs did not chase the silhouette but instead charged into the mist in different directions.
Zhou Yuan displayed a faint smile. “Since you’ve shown yourself, I’ll begin by burning your nest.”
Zhou Yuan already knew the silhouette was a Fallen Shadow the moment it appeared. The entire boundary had been drawn in when it attacked, allowing Zhou Yuan to see the boundary’s nodes.
Thud!
The mist boundary violently rippled as his voice rang out. A muffled groan followed as a wave of fire unfurled, and the thick mist thinned.
The boundary had been broken!
Swish!
The mist rapidly dissipated as an angry roar thundered. A blurry figure shot out from the fading mist, unleashing a frantic barrage of attacks on Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan was finally able to take a good look at the silhouette. It retained a human appearance, but its body gave off a faded sensation. Its face was blurry, and the strong Genesis Qi undulations that spread from its body would make anyone wary.
Clang! Clang!
Zhou Yuan waved the Heavenly Yuan Brush, blocking every attack that was sent toward him.
As the mist dissipated, his eyes suddenly widened. He had discovered twenty vortexes in the lake, a human figure trapped within each one. Tubes made from water reached out from the vortexes, connecting to the Fallen Shadow.
Red qi was continuously being extracted through the tubes.
It was blood qi.
The Fallen Shadow was extracting their blood.
Zhou Yuan frowned slightly. He waved his sleeve, sweeping up the remaining mist as he shouted, “Bombard it!”
The several hundred Tianyuan Region members around the lake likewise discovered the Fallen Shadow. Genesis Qi immediately erupted from them when they heard Zhou Yuan’s shout.
Boom!
In the next instant, several hundred torrents of Genesis Qi ruthlessly blasted the Fallen Shadow.
Boom boom!
Genesis Qi exploded, and the Fallen Shadow released a miserable shriek. Its body rippled violently and began to fade as it staggered backwards.
Sensing the direness of the situation, the Fallen Shadow suddenly transformed into a blur and fled towards the depths of the lake.
Swoosh!
However, a shadow instantly appeared in front of it the moment it moved.
Zhou Yuan’s five fingers clenched into a fist as snow-white brush hairs wrapped around his hand.
Genesis Breaker!
The hairs turned pitch-black.
Thirty-eight million Genesis Qi stars twinkled behind him.
Boom!
The punch struck the Fallen Shadow’s rippling body. A piercing shriek erupted before its entire body blasted apart.
Zhou Yuan clearly saw a dazzling core emerge from the epicenter of the explosion, and he immediately grabbed it.
It was a fist-sized orb.
The orb was crystal-clear and seemed to contain a unique power.
Before Zhou Yuan could identify it, the orb rapidly melted and flowed into his body through his palm.
Zhou Yuan cried out in surprise. Before he could inspect the interior of his body, his heart shook as a dazzling radiance suddenly exploded from his eyes.
