Chapter 274 274 Battle Part Two
The next instant, Lin Hui's figure gently appeared behind him.
"You lost."
He turned his head and said.
"Loss!?" A large amount of high-temperature liquid flames, resembling blood, surged from the Duke of Purgatory's body.
He burst into laughter.
"This is just the beginning!!"
puff!
The next moment, he actually plunged his hand into the wound on his shoulder, tearing out a large handful of flaming flesh and blood, which he then threw out at will.
boom!!
As his injuries worsened, the immense pressure and high-temperature radiation surrounding him more than doubled once again!
"Pain will only make me stronger!! Come on!!"
Duke of Purgatory's figure flickered, his speed was much faster than before, even far exceeding the Mistman's super speed, and he could barely keep up with Lin Hui's movements.
His fists blazed with black flames that resembled strange insects, and he slammed them towards Lin Hui with lightning speed.
Swish!
The punch missed its mark, passing straight through Lin Hui as if it had struck a phantom.
The next moment, another huge gash appeared on the Duke of Purgatory's chest.
High-temperature burning blood gushed out from the fountain, spilling down and being blown away in mid-air, turning into small, blazing fire meteors that crashed to the ground, creating craters of varying sizes.
He shook his head and saw a fresh drop of hot blood slowly dripping from the blade of the longsword in Lin Hui's hand, and he knew that he had been stabbed again.
"Interesting! Let's do it again!!"
Swish!
The two passed each other in a flash, and this time, his speed was much faster!
This time, he completely followed Lin Hui's actions, and not only did he follow them, he even launched a counterattack.
What a pity about that attack.
Lin Hui gently pinched a strand of blue hair that was falling from mid-air.
"Does the more injured you are, the more your strength increases?" A fighting spirit rose in his heart.
Since killing Tu Yue, or rather, since that incident with Tu Yue, he has never had a chance to unleash his full power.
His strength is constantly increasing rapidly.
Although Star Breath Sword Manual is currently stuck at the Saint of Annihilation stage, the Saint of Life stage continues to strengthen his body. Therefore, even he himself does not have a suitable reference to understand the extent of his strength.
This world isn't a place where you can tell someone's strength or weakness just by shouting about their level or rank. There's only one way to truly judge strength or weakness, and that's through fighting.
Relics, secret techniques, evil energy, and so on, can all greatly enhance a person's combat power.
"kill!!"
At this moment, two phantoms, one red and one blue, were rapidly colliding and intersecting in mid-air.
The gray vortex and crimson flames around the two also began to mix and clash at this moment.
The gale-force winds, accompanied by the intense heat of the flames, rapidly carved deep, scorched trenches across an area spanning hundreds of kilometers.
Yunxiazi led everyone to quickly escape the surrounding area, running wildly towards the medicine garden.
In this moment of life-or-death struggle, everyone used all their strength to rush forward frantically.
Fortunately, Lin Hui's Typhoon Domain managed to freeze the burning corpses of the Duke of Purgatory. With 99% of the burning corpses chasing them in super slow motion, the group quickly escaped the burning area without any danger and rushed into the thick white fog in the distance.
What they once considered a dangerous fog wall now provides them with a sense of security, obscuring their vision and aiding in their pursuit.
"Is that Xiaoliu's younger brother?? Daoist Qingfeng, Lin Hui!?"
As the group entered the fog wall, Vice Palace Master Jiang Zhixia heard a voice transmission from her colleague beside her. She turned around, glanced at the sky, her expression complex, and nodded in confirmation of her guess.
He is feeling very confused and conflicted right now.
I finally managed to take on a disciple. The disciple is very talented, hardworking and excellent, and has a good character. He is filial and respectful to his teacher.
I thought I was secure in my retirement.
As a result, the apprentice's younger brother was suddenly revealed to be abnormally strong. He could beat his superior like a grandson.
This often left him feeling insecure when facing his apprentices.
Then, things took a dramatic turn, with wars breaking out one after another, and now he has even fallen to the point where he had to be saved by his apprentice's younger brother.
"Alas, life is unpredictable, truly unpredictable." Jiang Zhixia shook her head and followed the group into the fog wall.
Huang Shan, standing behind him, also turned her gaze away.
The Qingfeng Dao Master she remembered, the senior brother who always patrolled around her disciples, now seemed to exist only in her memory.
The vibrancy and realism of the past have gradually been veiled by an unimaginable power and strength.
It's invisible and untouchable.
'In this world, there are always some extraordinary talents who are born to be admired by the world, and perhaps Lin Hui is one of them. As an ordinary person, I should just honestly walk my own path and move forward step by step.' After silently praying for Lin Hui, she followed the group and entered the fog.
"Dao Lord." As she finally rushed into the wall of mist, Yunxiazi looked back at the distant sky. Although she could not see anything due to the flames, gale, and dark clouds, she could still clearly sense that two powerful and terrifying auras, far exceeding her own, were fighting fiercely at a speed she could not comprehend.
"We must win!" Yunxiazi whispered a prayer, then turned and chased after the departing team.

Meanwhile, Han Xiaoyue led her two sisters and quickly retreated from the core area of the fierce battle. All three had now returned to human form, with only simple grayish-brown keratin forming on their bodies to cover their vital areas.
This is the most convenient, time-saving, and labor-saving way, since ordinary clothes are simply a burden for super-adaptors like them who need to transform frequently.
So, aside from daily life, during combat he uses his super-adaptive trait to transform into simple leather armor.
Han Xiaoyue also folded her wings at this moment, her proud fair figure was occasionally obscured by her long black hair flying in the wind.
The other two, the lizardman in human form, was a petite and adorable little girl with long, dark green hair and a delicate, petite figure.
The human form of the rhinoceros-headed elephant-man is a voluptuous beauty with a cool temperament, shoulder-length black hair, and a very prominent upper body.
At this moment, all three of them stopped at the edge of the battle area, looking towards the central battle situation.
"I knew it! Why did the captain suddenly start tweaking his physique? He even asks me for advice every day." The voluptuous beauty couldn't help but complain as she gazed at the distant sky.
"So it's true that people can love someone even if only half of their face is pretty?" the petite girl in dark green murmured, touching her cheek.
"That's not love! That's friendship!" Han Xiaoyue turned around and slapped one of them on the forehead.
"Yes, yes, friendship! Friendship!!" The voluptuous beauty covered her head, took a step back, and nodded repeatedly.
"Hmm, what a great friendship to travel so far to challenge the Duke of Purgatory! Ah, why haven't I encountered such excellent friendship?!" the green-haired girl chuckled.
"If you say another word, I'll use your mouth to eat dinner tonight," Han Xiaoyue warned, a faint blush creeping onto her face.
The mouth she was talking about was actually cut off and stir-fried to eat with rice. Anyway, they are super adaptable and gain weight extremely quickly. Sometimes when they are bored, they will eat something from their own bodies.
For example, Han Xiaoyue previously disliked that her breasts were a bit small, so she had surgery and then underwent minor adjustments to make them much larger. Later, feeling the shape wasn't perfect, she even sought advice from her friends.
"Hurry up! Stop talking nonsense, or we'll get caught in the crossfire!" Han Xiaoyue slapped her again, annoyed.
The three quickly entered the fog wall, and at this point, all the remaining survivors had escaped the old site of Tu Yue.
Lin Hui sensed this from afar through the Typhoon Sword Technique, and no longer held back.
Feather!
The next moment, his special effects activated, and his speed increased dramatically again, catching the Duke of Purgatory completely off guard.
After the two exchanged blows dozens of times, the Duke of Purgatory's right hand was chopped into a bizarre shape with its head broken in the opposite direction, but it remained intact and did not detach from his body.
Moreover, this intense pain actually caused his speed and strength to surge again.
"It's no use. Pain and injuries will only make me stronger, stronger! The strongest!!"
At this moment, the temperature around him had risen to several thousand degrees, and the terrifying flames emanating from his body were also aggravating his injuries.
Lin Hui frowned and drew his sword again. This time, his opponent actually kept up with his speed once more.
The two exchanged blows hundreds of times in an instant. He dodged and retreated, raising his Ruyi scepter high.
In an instant, countless massive black tornadoes rose from behind him, covering the entire area where the Duke of Purgatory was located.
Each tornado is tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters in diameter, with a slender, twisted, and serpentine shape, moving at extremely high speeds to encircle the other side.
Puff puff!
But as soon as all the black tornadoes covered the area, they were easily smashed through by the red meteor.
But this was just a small trick by Lin Hui to buy time. At this moment, Duke of Purgatory's strength far exceeded that of Tu Yue before. It could be said that even three more Tu Yue would not be enough to defeat him.
In other words, the Fog Man is extremely difficult to kill. Without wearing down the real evil fog, it is impossible to kill him. This is probably why he was able to escape from the city.
Swish!
The next instant, three golden runes lit up behind Lin Hui. His speed and power increased dramatically once again.
This time, he truly unleashed his full power.
With all the special effects and the Pure Source Body technique, and then the final killing blow—the Star Breath Sword Manual—he intended to finish off the Duke of Purgatory in one fell swoop.
Don't give him the chance to get injured and become stronger again.
Seemingly sensing Lin Hui's decision, the Duke of Purgatory laughed loudly, his body rapidly transforming amidst the red flames and meteors.
A large amount of hot, blackish-red liquid gushed out from the gaps in its armor. All the liquid expanded and grew behind it, instantly forming a huge black humanoid half-bodied monster.
The monster was covered in hideous black spikes, and the skin beneath the spikes was covered with countless pustules and scorch marks.
"Take my secret technique! Unrivaled Saintly Absolute!!" he roared, throwing out his right fist with all his might.
The enormous black half-bodied monster behind him also swung its giant fist at the same time.
Two fists, one large and one small, instantly pierced through the air, leaving two clear pseudo-vacuum fist marks.
The two fists emitted a strange flash of light, like blue-red fluid, and the surrounding temperature rose rapidly once again, reaching tens of thousands of degrees.
At that moment, a vast expanse of deep starry sky had already appeared behind Lin Hui.
He held the sword high in one hand, and a blurry human figure appeared behind him in a white light.
The two, one moving and one still, rapidly approached each other.
