Signing In At Mount Sword For 100 Years To Become Invincible

152 Taotie Evil Technique, Difficulty Leveled Up Again
At this moment, there were thousands of guards outside the Meridian Gate, but they were all so frightened by this hellish scene that they lost their will to fight.

Hearing Lin Ran’s order to retreat, no one bothered to even check if Lin Ran’s identity was real or fake. They agreed and ran back the way they came.

Seeing this, Lin Ran couldn’t help but feel anxious. It was a taboo to flee on the battlefield like this. The enemy didn’t even need to use any tactics to destroy them!

Liu Hongshan stood in the middle of the corpses on the ground and stared at Lin Ran with a faint smile.

Seeing this, Lin Ran did not act rashly. He focused his attention on Liu Hongshan and activated his internal energy to the point that it was about to explode.

Soon, thousands of guards near the Meridian Gate dispersed.

Liu Hongshan looked at the Dragon Roar Dagger in his hand and smiled teasingly at Lin Ran. “You came faster than I thought.”

“It’s because your plan was too lousy.”

As Lin Ran spoke, he slowly descended from the sky. The Yin-Yang Sword disappeared with a white light. At the same time, he pulled out Army Breaker from his waist. “Should I call you Liu Hongshan? Or General of the Southern Garrison?”

“Hmmm, I didn’t expect you would find it.”

Liu Hongshan sighed as if he was a little speechless. “I knew I shouldn’t expose my existence. Otherwise, you would definitely find out my real identity. But it doesn’t matter anymore. You’re still a step too late. I’m already prepared.”

Lin Ran narrowed his eyes. “Are you talking about the army that the Great Yong Dynasty has recently been sending over? Although they have a lot of soldiers, the Heavenly Saint Dynasty is not to be trifled with. I’m afraid your plan will fail!”

“I don’t care about the soldiers. When I said prepare…”

A strange smile slowly appeared on Liu Hongshan’s face, as if a pair of invisible hands were tugging at the corners of his mouth. “I mean these corpses.”

Lin Ran’s eyes widened as he suddenly thought of something, but that thought was too vague and disappeared in a flash.

When Lin Ran came back to his senses, he saw wisps of black fog begin to emit from Liu Hongshan’s body.

The fog covered the corpses at his feet and suddenly made a sizzling sound. Then, the flesh and blood of the corpses began to melt at an extremely fast speed as if they were dumped into a giant pot of boiling water.

A faint smell of blood wafted out, and the black fog quickly turned red. After Liu Hongshan summoned it back into his body, an infatuated expression immediately appeared on his face.

As the blood-red fog was absorbed by Liu Hongshan, he released more black fog.

In the blink of an eye, the corpses near Liu Hongshan melted one after another. In front of Lin Ran, they turned into jade-like bones, and the thick black fog was still spreading at an astonishing speed!

“So you were the one who wiped out those seven villages!”

Lin Ran immediately realized that Liu Hongshan had the ability to absorb the flesh and blood of others, although he didn’t know what evil technique he was using.

No wonder Xiao Huai did not know about the tragedy of the seven villages and the death of more than 3,000 people because it was Liu Hongshan who did it!

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Liu Hongshan replied coldly. At this moment, his figure was already completely hidden in the black fog. Only his voice could be heard. “However, in the past few decades, I’ve indeed slaughtered many villages.”

“What technique is this!”

Lin Ran held the hilt of Army Break tightly and asked sternly, “Why is your technique so similar to Xiao Huai’s?”

“Xiao Huai?”

Liu Hongshan’s puzzled voice came from the black fog. After half a second, he said in realization, “You mean that demon, right?… Coincidentally, back then, I planned to get rid of the Ten Miles Sword God and create the illusion that he died with the demon.”

“But when I severely injured the Ten Miles Sword God and broke the seal to let the demon out, I accidentally realized that she could feed on the flesh and blood of people with evil intentions and use it to increase her strength. Because of this, I even lost an arm!”

“So I changed my mind. I told her that I would treat while I secretly studied her. I didn’t expect to really figure it out!”

At this point, the black fog had already stopped expanding.

Lin Ran could hear sizzling sounds coming out of the black fog. It was the sound of the guards’ corpses melting.

“I named it the Taotie Evil Technique. Although it doesn’t increase my strength as much as it does to her, there are not many restrictions. As long as it’s a human, I can absorb it… How is it? Isn’t it very powerful?”

As he spoke, the black fog began to shrink again.

As the black fog retreated inch by inch, jade-like bones were revealed from the fog. At the same time, a cruel and furious aura gradually gathered at the center of the black fog—

In the end, this powerful aura gradually stabilized. Lin Ran’s expression instantly turned extremely ugly because Liu Hongshan was already at the seventh level of the Half-Saint Realm!

Previously, when the two of them were both at the sixth level of the Half-Saint Realm, Lin Ran was already having a hard time fighting Liu Hongshan. Now that Liu Hongshan had advanced further, it was undoubtedly a huge nightmare for Lin Ran.

When the black fog dissipated, Liu Hongshan stood among the bones with a strange smile on his face. “I’m full. We can start now.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Hongshan slowly raised the Dragon Roar Dagger in his hand and waved it gently at Lin Ran.

Clang!

A 30-foot-long air slash suddenly took shape and instantly tore open a huge ravine on the ground, whooshing towards Lin Ran!

Lin Ran narrowed his eyes. He subconsciously wanted to use the Mystic Gate Sword Technique to dodge, but just as he had this thought, he suddenly felt like he was being locked to the spot. His feet seemed to have taken root in the ground, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t move.

“It’s Realm Suppression!”

Lin Ran immediately reacted. Just like when an animal met its natural enemy, when a low-level martial artist met a high-level martial artist, the high-level martial artist could suppress the realm of the low-level martial artist and freeze him to the spot.

However, Realm Suppression was only possible when the two parties were worlds apart in terms of cultivation. Liu Hongshan was only one level higher than Lin Ran. How could his Realm Suppression be so terrifying?”

Lin Ran couldn’t figure it out, but he didn’t have time to think about it either.

In this moment of distraction, the air slash had already crossed a hundred steps, heading straight towards him mercilessly!
