Indescribable pain.

He stared intently at Jiang Shi, revealing a grim smile, "Even though I lost to you today, you won't live much longer either. I can feel it; you must have used an even more desperate secret technique than mine. Hahaha... the fall of a genius!"

Whoosh!

He turned and fled, not daring to stay any longer, his figure as swift as an afterimage.

Jiang Shi's eyes were red, the entire world before him seemed painted red, and his whole body was filled with an unimaginable and terrifying power, as if it might explode at any moment.

Seeing the Wang Family Ancestor escaping, he stomped his foot and instantly pursued at high speed.

The two charged through the area, creating booming sounds and unleashing wave after wave of force, audible from miles away.

Everyone in the village, all the Jianghu people, were gripped by extreme fear, trembling in terror.

"Oh my god, run for your lives!"

"Escape!"

"The Blood Exchange Old Monster couldn't withstand Jiang Shi and was forcefully repelled by him!"

Everyone quickly fled the place.

On the treetop, the blue-clad woman and the Golden Buddha Child were beyond shocked.

Suddenly, the blue-clad woman's eyes changed, she stepped lightly, her body flitting like a graceful butterfly as she actively pursued in the direction where Jiang Shi and the Wang Family Ancestor disappeared.

"If you want to explore secrets, at least consider your own strength first, or else you'll just be courting death!"

The Golden Buddha Child's voice, indifferent, carried from afar.

"Hehehe, no need for concern, Golden Buddha Child. Our Cyan Robe Tower always assesses exactly how much we can handle,"

The silver-bell-like laughter of the blue-clad woman echoed from a distance as she continued to chase forward.

One of Cyan Robe Tower's outposts is right in Hengzhou; how could we ignore such a significant event?

Once Jiang Shi and the Wang Family Ancestor are done fighting, Jiang Shi will definitely be severely injured. Cyan Robe Tower could easily capture him then.

As for how to handle him, it will entirely depend on our mood by then.

···

In the distance.

Jiang Shi pursued ferociously, his steps thundering on the ground, deafening. Although he was fast, the Wang Family Ancestor ahead wasn't much slower.

Faced with life-and-death danger, the Wang Family Ancestor pushed his potential to the limit, unleashing unimaginable power.

Seeing the Wang Family Ancestor about to escape the forest, Jiang Shi felt the backlash of his power continuously coming. He dared not continue the pursuit. Instead, he grabbed a handful of stones, infused them with terrifying power, and hurled them towards the distance.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each stone, like a meteor, hit the forest, shaking the earth and mountains.

Even though the Wang Family Ancestor fled with all his might, he was still caught by the terrifying stones, hit solidly on the back, letting out a heartrending scream, blood mist spraying.

The Wang Family Ancestor then escaped even faster.

Jiang Shi threw another four or five handfuls of stones, and two stones hit the Wang Family Ancestor brutally, piercing his entire back.

The Wang Family Ancestor spewed blood violently and finally disappeared from Jiang Shi's sight.

Jiang Shi dared not linger and turned to escape into the depths of the forest.

Only he knew how serious his injuries were now.

Apart from the heavy injuries left by the Wang Family Ancestor, there was also the terrifying tearing sensation from his body exceeding its limits. Especially now, he felt every inch of flesh was melting, unbearably painful, and ready to explode at any moment.

Jiang Shi kept circulating power to calm himself, first undoing the state of combined power and brute force, then quickly removing the Primordial Divine Palm and Wild Elephant Qi Blood...

At this time, without hesitation, he summoned up what little strength he had to continue his escape into the forest depths.

However, with this release of state, he instantly felt an indescribable stabbing pain from his heart, crimson blood started seeping from all over his body.

He quickly covered the wound, lowered his speed, and continued fleeing.

At this moment, it truly felt as if his life was about to dry up.

But that was not the worst part.

Soon he keenly noticed slight movements in the surrounding woods, as if figures were quickly approaching, their gazes icy, watching from the dark.

Judging by the aura, these were likely Martial Saint level experts.

They intended to take advantage of his severe injuries and reap the spoils.

"Damn it, all of you go die!"

Jiang Shi again grabbed a handful of stones, hurling them ferociously in the sensed direction.

Even though heavily injured, his physical strength still stood at 89,000 jin.

With the addition of the Red Sun Dominating Body, it easily surpassed 100,000 jin!

However, he didn't dare use the Red Sun Dominating Body Technique at full force now, only the First Realm, worried that excessive power might further shatter his body.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Even so, more than 100,000+ jin of strength was still devastating for a Martial Saint.

Those hidden Martial Saints, initially cold-eyed, suddenly changed expressions, desperately dodging as the trees and rocks around them boomed with terrifying sounds, shattering as if hit by falling stars.

Each Martial Saint was stunned, cold sweat pouring, turning to flee.

The just-arrived blue-clad woman once again showed a startled expression, her mind rapidly churning.

This guy still has such strength!

"It seems I'll have to write to the branch, asking the squad leader to lead experts personally,"

The blue-clad woman thought, her expression changing.

After throwing a handful of stones, Jiang Shi spat another mouthful of blood, his condition worsening, continuing to fiercely dash forward.

But soon his heart chilled as he sensed someone quietly tailing him again.

These people concealed their movements, acting silently, with rapid speed.

"Who are these people, suddenly appearing like this, why didn't I see them before? Could it be a large faction?"

Blood seeped from Jiang Shi's lips as murderous intent boiled in his heart.

No matter their origins, these people had malicious intentions.

They dared not confront him openly, seeing his current severe injuries and intending to capitalize on it.

Jiang Shi also felt he had overreached recently.

Since leaving the Desolate State, he seemed unusually bold, or rather, reckless.

In the eyes of any faction, a reckless person like him could not be tolerated!

The calamity he faced today was entirely self-inflicted.

This reminded him of a saying from his past life.

[In mixing, you need strength, background; being able to fight won't be enough].

He had no background; no matter how strong he was, how many could he face?

A deep anxiety gripped Jiang Shi's heart.

Fortunately, his third talent was about to unlock.

If he could just endure for a few days, his Reputation Value would definitely break through ten thousand.

Whoosh!

He rapidly vanished into the distant dense forest, continuously spitting blood, as his body seemed unable to bear it, stopping and starting, finally shaking off formidable foes and reaching the depths of the mountain forest.

At this moment, he was drenched in cold sweat, extremely weak, and felt like catching a cold, quickly finding a hidden cave, he slipped in to start healing.

Unfortunately, all the previously stored healing elixirs on his person were destroyed during the intense battle.

He could only rely on his powerful physique for slow recovery.

Time passed outside.

Two days passed, causing a miraculous stir.

Countless people were amazed, a tumult arose.

News spread like wildfire, leaving nearly everyone entering the mountains astonished.

The [Mad Demon King] who committed bloodshed in Fengzhou took action again, and the Wang Family Ancestor, heavily injured, escaped from his hands?

Is he even human?

"Jiang Shi battled the Wang Family Ancestor, and left heavily injured, fleeing towards the mountains!"

"Experts from the Cyan Robe Tower have been dispatched to enter the mountains in search of Jiang Shi!"

"The Wang Family Ancestor called on his friends, also Blood Exchange Old Monsters, to assist in his pursuit!"

"Breaking news, the Assassin Organization [Three Saints Association] has been mobilized; someone hired them to kill Jiang Shi!"

Many Martial Saints have entered the mountains, too...

Every piece of news was incredibly shocking.

Most just wanted to take down the heavily injured Jiang Shi.
