Chapter 187: Demi-god Puppet

Pop…

Looking at his enemy Hu Feng, Redelson angrily threw a punch.

With one punch, a muffled sound like a tiger’s roar and thunder rang out. The sharp fist wind stirred up a piercing sonic boom. Compared to the battle at Graham City, he only had one arm left, but his power was even greater, vaguely showing signs of catching up to Black Blood. Before the fist even got close, the thunderous sound made one’s blood boil and caused waves of discomfort, as if every vein was about to explode.

Great Thunder Sound Technique!

After returning to Thunder City, Redelson, who was bent on revenge, practiced madly. With the help of the Thunder Pool, he advanced by leaps and bounds.

Thud…

Redelson’s heavy punch ruthlessly smashed into Hu Feng’s chest. His body quickly faded and turned into countless tiny particles of dust in the cold wind.

“Damn it, another mirror illusion!”

Before he could even feel happy, Redelson, who had missed his strike, was both surprised and angry. He suddenly turned around to guard against a sneak attack from Hu Feng. The power inside him surged, and his developed muscles rippled with a steel-like black light. After the Great Thunder Sound Technique was cultivated to a high level, not only was his strength amazing, but his body was also condensed to an astonishing degree. Ordinary swords and sabers could not leave even a scratch; he was invulnerable to weapons.

“Come out, you despicable fellow, come out!”

Redelson looked around at the gloomy forest. His body swayed, and he suddenly lunged to the right, smashing a fist onto a towering tree that was swaying slightly. The immense power directly shook the tree trunk into fragments. Unfortunately, there was still no sign of Hu Feng. Hu Feng, who had been right in front of him just a moment ago, vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye, as if he had never appeared.

“Come out, come out!”

Redelson shouted angrily while smashing the surrounding big trees into pieces, startling flocks of birds. Unfortunately, even after trying every method, he could not find Hu Feng’s trace. Although he could not see him with his eyes, relying on the intuition honed in battle, he knew Hu Feng was hiding right beside him. Thinking of the endless ruthless methods Hu Feng used last time in Graham City, an unprecedented fear could not help but rise in his heart.

Anger, unwillingness, terror…

In just a short moment, countless thoughts surfaced in the mind of Redelson, who now had only one arm.

During this period, he could not hold his head up in Thunder City at all. He became a laughing stock for people to talk about after meals, and he also lost the favor of His Highness Prince Arthas. The battle of Graham City became the greatest humiliation of his life, and he hated Hu Feng, who caused all of this, to the bone. Having finally seen his sworn enemy Hu Feng again, how could he be willing to let him slip away like this? If he didn’t tear him to pieces with his own hands, how could he vent the hatred in his heart?

Redelson was unwilling to leave like this, but thinking of Hu Feng’s methods, he could not help but feel deep fear. The angrier he got, the more trees he destroyed, and the deeper the fear in his heart became. In the tens of thousands of years wandering the Wasteland, he had never seen a Holy Step Stronger as formidable as Hu Feng.

When he was only at the low-rank Sword Saint realm, he dared to ambush a Demi-god Stronger! Since their parting at Graham City, his strength seemed to have advanced by leaps and bounds, quickly breaking through to the high rank of the Holy Step. With his strength greatly increased, who knew what other even more powerful methods he might have?

Looking at the endless forest and the gloomy sky, Redelson, who was frantically destroying trees, suddenly had the thought of retreating. He let out a long roar to ask for help from the other accompanying guards. Only after hearing a response from the distance did he let out a sigh of relief. He glanced at the pitch-black dense forest and turned to leave. However, just as he turned around, a sharp gust of wind suddenly came from behind him.

“Wind Rises and Clouds Surge!”

Hu Feng, who had been waiting in the dark for a long time, suddenly attacked! His figure shot out, and the sharp Death Oak stabbed straight at Redelson’s chest.

As the sword stabbed out, Redelson, who was defenseless, felt the power in his body suddenly become chaotic, completely out of control, and even showed signs of collapsing. In an instant, his hands and feet felt weak, and he could only watch helplessly as the sharp Death Oak got closer and closer! A majestic aura of destiny rushed towards him, and the feeling that he was destined to die under this sword surfaced in his heart again!

In the battle of Graham City, he had deeply experienced the terror of the Death Oak. Being pierced by this sharp sword, apart from begging the High Priest of Thunder City to take action, there was no way to heal and stop the bleeding. This place was far from Thunder City; if he was stabbed in the heart by Hu Feng, that would be the end!

Hah…

At the critical moment of life and death, the survival instinct made Redelson explode completely. A series of sounds like thunder and tiger roars suddenly exploded inside his body. He instantly grew taller by a head. His clenched fist was like a giant hammer, and with a ‘ding’, it smashed the imposing Death Oak aside. There was not the slightest scratch on his fist; on the contrary, the huge recoil made the tiger’s mouth of Hu Feng’s hand go numb, and the Death Oak in his hand almost flew out of his grip.

“God-Slaying Second Sword, Heaven and Earth Cage!”

Hu Feng flipped back with the momentum. The sharp Death Oak tapped the ground, making an almost ninety-degree turn. Using the powerful recoil, he launched another sharp attack, giving Redelson no time to catch his breath, and instantly appeared in front of him again.

Compared to the first sword, this sword made Redelson feel that the whole world was shrouded under countless sharp Sword Qi, and the power in his body was directly sealed. The bones and muscles in his body crackled. He tried every method but could no longer use the Great Thunder Sound Technique to surge his power. He could only watch helplessly as a cold light got closer and closer!

Puff…

The sharp Death Oak pierced through Redelson’s chest without any suspense.

Having succeeded in one strike, Hu Feng quickly used the Great Devour Technique to directly devour his power. Behind him, a massive Demon God Phantom with four faces and eight arms appeared. As the vast power surged in, he broke through the bottleneck in one fell swoop, breaking through to the Seventh Step of the Holy Step. In the blink of an eye, he cultivated to the peak of the Seventh Step, vaguely showing signs of directly breaking through to the Eighth Step of the Holy Step.

“No…”

Sensing the massive loss of life force and power, Redelson screamed in misery. His mind went blank, leaving only boundless fear. Although he knew Hu Feng’s strength had increased greatly the moment he saw him, he never expected that he had cultivated to such a level. Just two swords, and he, a Demi-god Stronger, could not withstand them!

“You… are Blackwater?”

Just as Hu Feng was preparing to finish the job and have the Demon God Clone behind him directly swallow Redelson, a unparalleled thought suddenly erupted from the depths of the latter’s mind, turning into a cold man in black. The long sword in his hand gently slashed, and a bone-piercing cold wind rushed towards his face. A layer of ice appeared on the ground, and snowflakes the size of goose feathers fell from the sky!

His Highness Prince Arthas?

Hu Feng’s expression changed in shock. He ignored swallowing the dying Redelson and quickly retreated with a ‘whoosh’. Just after he rushed out, everything within a radius of more than ten meters centered on Redelson behind him turned into ice sculptures, and the cold air was pressing. Prince Arthas’s Great Freeze Technique had been cultivated to the extreme. A Great Freeze Technique driven by just a single thought was enough to instantly kill a Demi-god Stronger!

Also at the Demi-god Realm, at the peak level, and likely to break through the bottleneck and step into the Divine Domain at any time to become a deity, Prince Arthas was countless times stronger than Redelson, a guard with Demi-god strength!

“Go!”

After just one encounter, Hu Feng understood that he was far from being a match for this top expert, Prince Arthas. If he summoned the Holy Angel Taliana and Witch Elder Natalia, he might be able to forcibly destroy this Thought Incarnation of his, but if the other party had time to descend in his real body, the three of them together would not be his opponent!

Whoosh…

After running half a circle around the Dragon’s Grave and confirming that Prince Arthas’s Thought Incarnation was not chasing him, Hu Feng stopped. He sat down cross-legged under a big tree and slowly harmonized the power within his body.

This battle did not completely eliminate the hidden danger of Redelson, but after devouring the vast majority of his power, this guy was no longer a concern. Even if he luckily survived, his strength would have dropped to the Demi-god Realm, or even below the Holy Step realm, and he would no longer have the ability to take revenge!

“What a pity. If I could devour all of Redelson’s power, maybe I could directly break through to the Eighth Step of the Saint Domain!”

Sensing the changes inside his body, Hu Feng shook his head with regret amidst his surprise.

Devouring the vast majority of the power essence of Redelson, a Demi-god Stronger, made his power reach a new level. Unfortunately, there was still a small step left to break through to the Eighth Step of the Saint Domain. As for Redelson’s memories, he only obtained some blurry memory fragments and could not accurately understand the secrets of Thunder City and the Morgan Family.

“Hehehe, impressive. To be this powerful just after cultivating to the Holy Step realm, worthy of being an elite of Black Horn! Little guy, you are really something to look forward to. How powerful will you be after being refined into a War Puppet!”

Just as Hu Feng was preparing to calm his mind and cultivate, waiting for the Primordial Heavenly Dragon King’s remains to be unearthed, a cold voice suddenly came from the darkness. Then, an inconspicuous-looking old man appeared in front of him. Hunchbacked, his face full of wrinkles, he swayed when he walked, as if out of breath. He looked dirty all over, like an ordinary wretched old man, but upon closer sensing, he gave off a strong sense of danger. Hu Feng focused his gaze and immediately stood up, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Puppet Ancestor Igula!

After the battle at Saintess Peak, he didn’t expect to meet this sinister and evil old monster again. Compared to last time, this old fellow’s power was even more terrifying, giving people an unfathomable feeling. He only saw him silently chant a few incantations, and suddenly four tall War Puppets appeared around him, spreading out to surround him. The power fluctuations inside every War Puppet were actually not inferior to Redelson in his prime, and their strength was immense.

Demi-god Puppet!

Puppet Ancestor Igula waved his hand and summoned four Demi-god Puppets, surrounding Hu Feng tightly. After carefully sensing the power fluctuations in Hu Feng’s body, his eyes shone, and he laughed loudly.

After breaking through to the Demi-god Realm and becoming the first Demi-god Puppet Master on the Dallas Continent, his War Pet upgraded from a Fourteenth Step Titan Puppet to a Demi-god Puppet, and his combat power was much, much stronger. Several Demi-god Strongers who used to walk alone on the Wasteland had already fallen victim to him and been refined into War Puppets without self-awareness.
