Phoenix Warrior of Full-Time Magister

"Caught me? Kid! You were lucky to block that attack, but you're only one step away from death."

It wasn't luck. Although Yu Chen's speed was fast, in Yun Hua's eyes, it was just like running fast.

Although Yunhua's Hundred Beasts Evil Body is currently only in its initial stage, the bonuses brought by bone tempering are not limited to strength and defense, but also include other aspects, including reaction speed.

The moment Yu Chen attacked, Yun Hua was already prepared to defend. If Yu Chen's strength hadn't far exceeded Yun Hua's expectations, the punch would have been blocked.

"The moment I put my hand in, your life will be mine!"

Yunhua countered in a very nonchalant tone, "Oh? Is that so? Then why don't you give it a try?"

"You want to die..."

As Yu Chen was speaking, he reached out with his right hand to end the life of the person in front of him, but just as he was about to make a move, he felt as if his hand was being pressed between two mountains, and he could not move.

"How is that possible?"

"This glove is the most powerful thing you have! In your current state, you can't escape using Wind Track and Shadow Step. Giant Shadow Nail and Wind Disc will hurt you. I don't believe you're a high-level mage!"

Yu Chen's expression turned ugly. Yun Hua was right; he was indeed not a high-level mage, and he didn't even know how to use the Wind Disc.

Since obtaining the Lava Glove, Yu Chen has been using Shadow Step to secretly approach his opponents, then using Giant Shadow Nail to immobilize them, and finally using the Lava Glove to deliver a fatal blow. He rarely even uses Wind Track.

However, this time, because the scene of that woman fighting hand-to-hand with a warrior-level demon was too terrifying, the Giant Shadow Nail was used on her for safety reasons.

I originally thought I could deal with this kid by using Shadow Step, but I didn't expect him to know the weakness of Giant Shadow Nail, forcing me to show myself, interrupt and fight him hand to hand. His physical strength also far exceeded my expectations.

"However," Yu Chen glanced at the blood flowing continuously from Yun Hua's chest and chuckled, "bleeding so much, how long can you last? I don't think I'll even need to lift a finger; you'll bleed to death on your own!"

"A few minutes will be enough."

Connecting star points in battle is not an easy task, because it requires not only concentration but also calmness, and it is difficult to do if you are constantly in a state of tension.

This is why many students in academies, despite their excellent performance in ordinary times, often falter when they actually engage in formal battles against demons.

After all, not everyone's physical body is as extraordinary as Yunhua's. Even a high-level mage's body can be pierced by a servant-level demon. It's normal to be nervous under the pressure of death.

Yunhua is different. When facing death, his mind becomes clearer and the connection between his stars becomes smoother.

The starlight flickered, and a large amount of green poisonous mist emerged from Yunhua's body, surrounding the two of them.

"Poison Extraction - Breathing Exercises? Is this your trump card?"

Toxins don't necessarily have to be exhaled through the mouth; in fact, they can emerge from any pore on the body.

"Idiot! You're bleeding now, the poison will enter your body even faster. Even if you're a poison mage and have resistance to poison, it's useless. You'll be the first to be poisoned!"

"That's not necessarily true."

Yu Chen dismissed Yun Hua's pretentious attitude, but soon realized something was wrong. He noticed that his right hand was gradually losing sensation, while the other party remained completely unresponsive.

Furthermore, the possibility of a trial at any time added to the pressure, causing Yu Chen's mental state to become somewhat unbalanced.

Yu Chen, like a madman, pounded Yun Hua's head with his free left hand, but his fists had no effect on her body.

Although Yunhua concentrated all her magical energy in her hands, the skull is the hardest part of the human body, and with the added benefit of bone tempering, Yu Chen's attack was really just a tickle.

Seeing that his attacks were ineffective, Yu Chen began to deeply regret not buying a demon-slaying tool in the first place. He wished he hadn't used all his funds to acquire resources to improve his cultivation. But it was too late now, and Yu Chen could only resort to verbal attacks.

"Wait a minute, I don't think there's any need for us to fight to the death. I'm just an assassin, I take people's money to solve their problems. How about we talk this over?"

"I actually have quite a bit of money left, and I'd be happy to share it with you all!"

"Don't you want to know who wants to kill you? Let me tell you, my target isn't that woman, it's you. Don't you want to find out who your enemy is?!"

When Yunhua said the last sentence, her eyes flickered, which made Yu Chen feel that there was an opportunity, so he decided to step up his efforts.

Before she could even finish speaking, she felt a piercing pain in her wrist. Looking down, she discovered that Yunhua had actually severed her right hand with a hand chop.

Before Yu Chen could even let out a painful howl, Yun Hua punched him squarely in the face again. This punch contained all of Yun Hua's remaining magical energy, and its power was so great that it shattered his skull like a watermelon.

Looking at Yu Chen's fallen body, Yun Hua secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, he had focused on persuading Yun Hua and reduced the force in his hands. Otherwise, he would not have been able to free up one hand to turn things around.

Yunhua touched the wound on his chest. In fact, he was also about to collapse. Just as Yu Chen had said, the onset time of the toxin was different between injured and uninjured people.

Although his toxins only had a numbing effect, he actually had no feeling in his lower body. However, because of the wound on his chest that was constantly irritating him, he was not so easy to fall down.

But the nonchalant expression on my face probably fooled him too.

Yunhua didn't care about the last question he asked. As long as he climbed higher, he would definitely become someone that countless people would see as the Black Vatican and the Holy City, and that he would eventually clash with them.

Yunhua didn't care about the person behind a mid-level mage.

"Junior brother!"

After Yu Chen died, the Giant Shadow Nail lost its effect. Klein, freed from his restraints, rushed towards Yun Hua before he could retract his Purple Pattern War Demon.

Just as Yunhua was about to respond, she discovered that Duchenzhiyu had uncontrollably emerged from the spiritual world and appeared outside.

The Feather of Crossing Dust arrived above Yu Chen's corpse, then extended countless threads outwards and pierced into Yu Chen's body. In a few breaths, it pulled out a ball of light, which merged into the Feather of Crossing Dust and disappeared. The Feather of Crossing Dust returned to Yun Hua's spiritual world as if it had completed a task.

Klein came to Yunhua's side and carefully examined her injuries.

Yunhua pointed to the spot where the Feather of Crossing Dust had appeared. "Senior Sister, did you see it?"

Klein glanced in that direction and saw Yu Chen on the ground. He nodded, and Yun Hua's heart tightened.

"Junior brother is so handsome. It's a pity I didn't have time to grab my phone, otherwise I would have definitely taken a picture."

Yunhua: "?"

Why does this sound so familiar? I think I've said it before.
