Chapter 280: Blood Deity

What's with him?" Yu Er Dan was first to ask as her lithe body traversed the earth.

"Hehe. He is a star path expert and Starcrow Hounds have strong star path affinity. It is only natural for him to react like this" Alaka'i responded casually.

"Hmm" Yu Er Dan only nodded.

Ever since they entered the aperture fragment, their cultivation bases and battle strength had been increasing rapidly. It was only natural for Immortal Star to wish to improve.

Silence soon ensued the group as their speeds continued to increase. After a while, they also saw the Starcrow Hounds.

The Starcrow Hounds moved as a pack and this pack had ten Starcrow Hounds. They all radiated rank seven auras.

Immortal Star had peak of second tier of Acquisition realm cultivation base and his battle strength was comparable to the third tier of Acquisition realm. The many Starcrow Hounds were no match for him.

Star path aura flourished, Immortal Star was singlehandedly pushing them back.

"Hehehe" Yu Er Dan chuckled as vigorous strength Essence enveloped her body. With a single punch, she sent a Starcrow Hound flying.

Yu Er Dan felt her fist and smiled: "Again!"

Cangxiang Zihan smiled: "Lone martial practitioners, always getting giddy over the simplest things"

Cloud path aura surged and his Original realm aura exploded forth. The Starcrow Hounds were terrified. Their bestial instincts roared at them to run but before they knew it, dense clouds had already consumed them.

The remaining martial warriors also attacked the Starcrow Hounds, increasing the pressure. They were experts at fighting, even though they could not fly, they prevented the swift Starcrow Hounds from escaping by flying.

The pressure on Immortal Star lessened and his attacks became more frequent. From his body, dense shiny purple dust emanated as star cores flew wantonly, striking a Starcrow Hound.

The purple dust consumed the Starcrow Hound and it began to howl madly. The star cores pelted it hundreds of times at once.

Its large pitch black wings unfolded and it attempted to fly away but Immortal Star only smiled.

"Swoosh!"

A bright purple flame suddenly combusted on the Starcrow Hound's wings before spreading like wildfire. The star path dao imprints on the Starcrow Hound pushed the strength of the purple flame and within moments, the Starcrow Hound was burnt into char.

Immortal Star made a tugging motion and a crystal prism with seven edges and a starry core flew out of the Starcrow Hound's charred forehead. It was its beast core.

Before anyone else could react, Immortal Star stored the beast core in his spatial ring and eyed another Starcrow Hound.

Yu Er Dan fought relentlessly. Strength path experts like her did not use complex techniques. They only used their fists, elbows, knees and feet as weapons. It was the essence of strength path, using every part of the body as a weapon.

The Starcrow Hound she fought was pummelled till it was swollen like a ball. Blood oozed from its body and many of its bones were cracked and broken. It was already at its last legs.

"Die!" Yu Er Dan grunted and strength Essence overflowed. Her right hand crashed like a meteor and the Starcrow Hound's head was crushed into smithereens. She took its beast core and stored it in her spatial ring.

More Starcrow Hounds continued to die and only when five were remaining was when Lu Zheng used his methods.

Lu Zheng moved his right arm and spread his palms open as wide as possible: "Blood Materialisation"

His voice was cold and soft but its effects were glaring. The blood of the dead Starcrow Hounds rose and formed into round balls of blood. The balls of blood squirmed and writhed like a hand was moulding them from clay.

After twelve seconds, the balls of blood came together into a figure made entirely from blood. His physical structure was similar to Lu Zheng's but he had no facial features. Strong bloodlust permeated from his body.

The bloodlust was strong and the remaining Starcrow Hounds ran mad. Their attacks became stronger but they lost their coordination. The last traces of intelligence disappeared from their eyes.

"What is that?" Yi Tong Qu asked as he placed his hand on his chest. Subtle sound waves erupted from his palm and his heart stopped beating madly. He nearly lost control over himself.

"This is my Blood Deity" Lu Zheng smiled faintly and controlled the Blood Deity.
