Chapter 1134: See You in a While

*Whoosh—!!*

Under the High Priest's full-force throw, the bone club instantly shattered the air, emitting a roar like a missile, and forcibly blasted a gap in the surging red-paper wave!

With the help of this club, the Cardinal temporarily escaped death, but the bone club didn't stop. Instead, it continued to blast away all the red pythons with unstoppable force, crashing straight toward the solitary eye on the red paper!

The High Priest's strength was far above that of the Cardinals; just from this one club, one could glimpse a corner of his terrifying power.

However, just as the bone club was about to smash the main body of the red cloud, an arm wrapped in red paper suddenly stretched out from the wave, actually catching the bone club with bare hands!

*Bang!!*

Under the terrifying impact, that arm was directly blasted into blood dregs, and the red-paper monster behind it was also blasted into pieces. The originally huge red cloud seemed to have been blown by a hurricane, its volume shrinking by a full two-thirds, leaving only one solitary eye floating in the air.

Chen Ling's body emerged from the red paper. He was still in the posture of catching the bone club with one hand, half of his body covered in blood, his empty actor robe sleeves fluttering in the air.

"Do you think you can escape?"

Chen Ling sneered. Although he was seriously injured and even had one arm blasted away, he showed no signs of decline. Instead, his momentum became even more vigorous and terrifying!

His body under the bright red actor robe dispersed into red paper, and he dived down from the air like a goshawk striking the long sky, rushing toward the falling, seriously injured Cardinal! Seeing this, the Cardinal's expression was incredibly ugly, and he tried to get away, dragging his broken body...

But the next moment, Chen Ling flipped the boning knife in his hand up and down!

The Cardinal only felt his own gravity instantly reversed. His originally falling body actually rose into the sky in the opposite direction at a very fast speed!

One falling rapidly, one rising rapidly, the two intertwined like lightning. Chen Ling, in his red actor robe and red paper, flipped the blade and swung it in an instant!

A cold light pierced the sky and earth, the Cardinal's figure was instantly split into two, and scarlet blood sprinkled across the sky!

Dense red paper followed, like a pitch-black sky sinking to the ground, staining all the blood onto the paper surface without leaving a drop, and then with a light suck, the Cardinal's two halves of the body withered and shrank, falling straight down...

The rich Red Star wish power surged into Chen Ling's body. He felt unprecedentedly full in body and mind, let out a long breath of enjoyment in mid-air, and then looked leisurely at the High Priest in front of the altar.

The appetizers and side dishes had already been eaten; next was the real, full-course tonic.

Raging flames burned among the stone piles, illuminating a corner of the blood-stained village... At this point, the branch had been largely blood-washed by Chen Ling. Looking with the naked eye, except for the High Priest, there wasn't a single living Jiangtian cultist left, only mangled corpses all over the ground.

The High Priest's chest heaved violently, as if he were angry to the extreme. Who would have thought that while performing a ritual at such a remote branch, a monster like Chen Ling would kill his way in?

Jiangtian cultists had Red Star wish power and could not be sacrificed to the Red Star. The surrounding stones and wood blocks were also from the Gray Realm and could not be used as sacrifices, and the other prepared sacrifices had been destroyed... When the tornado-like torch fire gradually withered and dissipated, the High Priest realized that this ritual had failed.

He roared, blasted the altar into fragments with one punch, and then stepped hard on the ground with both feet, leaping up like a cannonball!

Fire embers swirled under the sky. The High Priest's killing intent dyed half the sky blood-red. He beckoned, and the bone club he had thrown away automatically flew back into his palm. Then he gripped the club handle with both hands and smashed it toward Chen Ling's face with angry eyes!

The hurricane from swinging the bone club made Chen Ling's actor robe flutter. A sharp light flashed in his narrowed eyes. The next moment, several thick red-paper pythons climbed onto his only remaining arm, locking tight like muscle tissue!

He faced the High Priest and swung his knife with all his might!

*Clang—!!!*

The bone club and the boning knife collided in the air, and visible shockwaves swept across the sky.

The next moment, Chen Ling, in his bright red actor robe, was smashed out of the sky, crashing into one end of the cliff like a meteorite, shattering large areas of the surrounding mountain rocks into slag.

Chen Ling spat out a mouthful of blood, his body cracked all over, embedded in the center of the mountain rock, looking incredibly disheveled.

The High Priest was someone who could easily suppress a Seventh Rank. Even if Chen Ling was not affected by the Jiangtian power, it was difficult to contend with him in terms of combat power. The power superposition of 【Blood Robe】 + 【Calamity Transformation】 could only barely parry the other's attacks.

This full-course tonic wasn't so easy to eat.

"Heart!"

Seeing this scene, Jiang Xiaohua's eyes were full of anxiety.

"He is no match for that High Priest." Jack of Diamonds' figure drilled out of the tunnel, the green roots gradually retracting into his body. He looked at the cracked cliff and said helplessly,

"The High Priests of the Jiangtian Cult have already jumped out of the human category under the nourishment of the Red Star wish power. In a sense, they are already aliens... In a head-on fight, even I am no match, let alone a junior who has just mastered Calamity Transformation?"

"Then what should we do??"

Before Jack of Diamonds could say anything, the disheveled figure in the actor robe had already slowly walked out from the edge of the cliff.

*Thump—!*

The High Priest held the bone club and crashed from the sky in front of Chen Ling, the red leaf apron fluttering up and down, emitting a primitive and wild aura... His eyes stared fixedly at Chen Ling, walking forward slowly, angry as if he wanted to smash him into meat paste directly.

Seeing this, Chen Ling not only had no fear on his face, but a hint of playfulness appeared in those scarlet-tinted eyes.

"It seems that with my current strength, I am indeed no match for you..."

A low hum came from the High Priest's throat. He understood Chen Ling's words but had no intention of stopping.

But the next moment, Chen Ling's actions exceeded everyone's expectations.

Chen Ling slowly raised his arm, and countless red-paper pythons circled around him. One of the red-paper pythons wrapped around the boning knife, slowly hovering in front of Chen Ling's throat. The sharp blade tip pressed against his skin, drawing out wisps of scarlet blood.

The corners of Chen Ling's mouth rose slightly:

"In that case..."

"Then, see you in a while."

*Pfft—!!*

The red-paper python wrapped around the boning knife exerted force instantly, directly piercing through Chen Ling's throat!

Scarlet blood slid down Chen Ling's chest. Seeing this scene, even the High Priest, who was full of killing intent, was stunned... His eyes, glowing with primitive light, looked suspiciously at Chen Ling's state of death, seemingly unable to understand why he did this.

However, following Chen Ling's death, the red-paper pythons surrounding him did not dissipate. Instead, after a brief pause, they suddenly went berserk, frantically spreading in all directions!!
