Bathed in Blood

"Hehehe," chuckled Haisha, watching the Blood Bakshi cultivators approach him with reckless abandon.

He was poised to activate the runic lamp in his hand, ready to unleash a spiritual attack on his enemies' souls. But just as he prepared to do so, his attention was captured by Aksai's sudden leap into the air.

Swoosh.

'The guy can surely jump. Did he use an Advanced Light Steps talisman?'

Haisha pondered, his thoughts cut short. Initially, he intended to dismiss Aksai's duel with Lian and focus solely on his own battle. Yet, witnessing Aksai's swift and precise hand signs, weaving multiple Spirit Spells simultaneously, left him astonished.

'What… What the hell is that hand-sign casting speed? Is he really a cultivator in the late-stage Spirit Refining? Not even a Spirit Refining Perfectionist would be able to do that. Is it… a Foundation Building Ex—. No wait. I shouldn't get distracted.'
