Chapter 433: Chapter 148: Subduing a Demonic Servant on the Thousand-Ren Cliff, a Hundred-Li Cold Edge Warns of a Death Tribulation

’This boy’s Primordial Qi fluctuations are clearly just at the early Spirit Awakening Realm. So how can he go toe-to-toe with my Demon Puppet?’

’And what is the deal with this Body Technique?’

Mo Yunzi knew she was in deep trouble. While retreating and swinging her sword, she commanded her Demon Puppet to fall back into a defensive position, intending for the two of them to trap and kill Chu Fan in a pincer attack.

However, Chu Fan’s Body Technique was simply too fast!

He was so fast that even an expert at the First or Second Heaven of the Acupoint Realm would have been left in the dust!

Furthermore, with his Ghost Shadow Illusionary Body Step having reached the level of Perfection, his every move was like that of a phantom!

By splitting her focus, Mo Yunzi’s movements were ultimately half a step too slow.

And that half-step delay was fatal!

"Don’t even think about it!"

Seeing Chu Fan close the distance, Mo Yunzi’s face twisted into a vicious expression. She abruptly opened her mouth and spat out a plume of black gas.

In mid-air, the black gas transformed into several pitch-black chains that shot toward Chu Fan like vipers, aiming to ensnare both his Long Saber and his body.

Chu Fan’s Long Saber was bound, and several strands of black gas wrapped around his body. The gas felt like ropes, proving remarkably difficult to shake off.

Seeing this, Mo Yunzi cackled, her longsword striking at him like a viper lunging from its den!

But unexpectedly, Chu Fan simply let go of his saber. Then, with a shudder of his body, he activated his Vajra Undying Body and directly shattered the black gas!

Without the slightest pause, he unleashed a storm of palm strikes at Mo Yunzi, his hands a blur of countless afterimages!

Only then did Mo Yunzi realize with horror that her opponent’s strongest Bottom Card wasn’t his exquisite Sword Technique, but this bizarrely fast Palm Technique that was impossible to see clearly!

’This is bad!’

Utterly horrified, Mo Yunzi retreated rapidly, trying to cast a Protective Secret Technique.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The difference in their Body Techniques was as vast as the heavens and the earth.

Chu Fan stuck to her like a maggot on a rotting bone. His Palm Technique was so exquisite that his hands easily passed through the Sword Net she had hastily deployed.

THUD! THUD!

With two muffled thuds, Chu Fan’s palms landed solidly on her chest!

"Aargh!"

With a pained cry, Mo Yunzi was sent flying backward like a kite with a snapped string.

She tried to use her last ounce of strength to command her Demon Puppet, only to discover with horror that an overwhelmingly powerful wave of Extreme Cold Qi had instantly frozen her meridians, causing her Primordial Qi to become sluggish and stagnant!

At the same time, another, even more sinister energy—the Yellow Springs Death Qi—began to viciously corrode the life force in her meridians, like maggots gnawing on bone!

"What kind of Palm Technique is this?!"

Mo Yunzi’s face drained of color. She had walked the path of the Demon Dao for many years but had never heard of such a tyrannical and vicious Cultivation Technique!

Though the two palm strikes didn’t seem to have caused heavy external injuries, she was already a spent force, completely unable to muster the slightest bit of resistance!

If she delayed even a moment longer, she would perish on her own, without her opponent needing to lift a finger!

’Run!’

At that moment, all thoughts of dignity and her mission were thrown to the wind.

She forced the bewildered Demon Puppet to lunge at Chu Fan, while she herself turned, transforming into a streak of bloody light as she fled for her life!

A master at the Fifth Heaven of the Divine Power Realm, beaten so badly by someone in the early Spirit Awakening Realm that she had to flee in disgrace!

If word of this got out, she would never be able to hold her head high in the entire Yin Demon Sect again.

But as long as she could live, it was all worth it!

But could she really escape?

Now, once Chu Fan’s Demon Dragon Celestial Spirit Scripture’s Spirit Array Map was activated, it could be maintained for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea—a far cry from how long it had lasted back in the Gangfeng Forbidden Land.

Coupled with the various Traits of his Running Technique and his rudimentary grasp of the Nine Heavens Wind Mastery Scripture, his Body Technique was now so fast that even an expert at the Second Heaven of the Acupoint Realm couldn’t necessarily match him!

With a flicker of his body, Chu Fan easily dodged the Demon Puppet’s lunge, his gaze already locked onto the streak of bloody Tunneling Light.

He hadn’t even reached her yet when he suddenly flung out his left hand!

"Go!"

WHOOSH—!

A dark, heavy chain shot through the air. It was none other than the Spirit Soldier, the Demon-locking Chain!

Empowered by the Demon-locking Technique, the Demon-locking Chain moved like a living viper. Though launched after she fled, it arrived first, catching up to Mo Yunzi with a ZING and binding her tightly from head to toe!

"Ah!"

Sharp spikes instantly shot out from the chain, piercing through her Protective Primordial Qi, digging into her flesh, and sealing her Qi Blood Primordial Qi.

She let out a blood-curdling scream of agony.

Mo Yunzi tried to circulate her power to break free, only for the now-present Chu Fan to land another palm strike on her back!

THUD!

Mo Yunzi tumbled to the ground, writhing in agony.

The spikes on the chain drew continuous screams of pain from her!

Chu Fan took a single step, appearing before her. His eyes were cold, his right fist clenched, and he drove it down toward her heart without hesitation!

"Don’t kill me! I’m willing to serve you as my master!!"

Beneath the shadow of death, Mo Yunzi shrieked with all her might.

FWOOSH!

The terrifyingly powerful fist finally stopped, just an inch from her heart.

Chu Fan unclenched his fist, his fingers forming a claw that closed around her pale neck.

In the distance, the Demon Puppet, now without its master’s control, also ceased moving. The Soul Fire in its eye sockets flickered erratically as it stood frozen in place.

"Why should I believe you?" Chu Fan’s voice was ice-cold.

"A master-servant contract! I can form a master-servant contract with you!"

Mo Yunzi said frantically, "Once it’s formed, if I dare to have the slightest thought of resistance or betrayal, you can obliterate my very soul with a single thought, dooming me for all eternity!"

Chu Fan’s eyes flickered. "And what value do you offer?"

"I am at the Fifth Heaven of the Divine Power Realm, just one step away from breaking through to the Acupoint Realm!" Mo Yunzi said hurriedly. "Furthermore, with the aid of a Talisman, my Demon Puppet’s strength is comparable to the Acupoint Realm! As long as you spare me, I will serve you for my entire life, Master, and never betray you!"

"I’ll do anything you ask... even warm your bed..."

Chu Fan’s gaze drifted past her to the towering White Bone Demon Puppet. He asked, "If this thing is shattered, can it be revived?"

"Yes!" Mo Yunzi nodded frantically. "As long as the Fierce Soul within it doesn’t dissipate, it can be reformed with some materials, though its strength will be greatly diminished."
