This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 164 - 127: Momentum Like Divine Ghosts, Unstoppable by Anyone
The Tao Foundation clone, which should have lost all ability to act after Zhao Yu's death, suddenly "came back to life"!
"It's not over yet, kill her, and we still win!"
The clone bellowed with a venomous voice.
Zhao Yu himself was indeed dead, but he had been resurrected through this Tao Foundation clone!

[Corpse Cluster] Implant possessed two extraordinary abilities: one to control corpses, and another to strengthen them.
After Zhao Yu entered the Possession Stage with the help of [Corpse Cluster], he unlocked the third extraordinary ability of [Corpse Cluster]—Reincarnation.
This ability allowed him to transfer his entire spiritual power to a clone after his own death, thus continuing to exist.
But the price of doing so was also extremely heavy!
First of all, a clone was not the original body. Zhao Yu's spirit dwelling within it was like a slowly burning candle, which would eventually burn out completely!
This meant that Zhao Yu's lifespan had been cut short by several decades, and from now on, he would need to spend a significant amount of magic materials daily to maintain this body.
With proper upkeep, he might be able to live for about ten years.
Secondly, once 'Reincarnation' was used, Zhao Yu's magic realm could no longer be broken through; for the rest of his life, he could only remain at the early stage of the Possession Realm.
The considerable cost naturally filled Zhao Yu with bitterness and made him even less willing to give up.
"That Green-faced Ghost must be left to me to deal with!"
The Tao Foundation clone, or rather Zhao Yu, roared furiously.
He wanted to capture the Green-faced Ghost alive and then torture him severely!
On the other hand, Li Fei tossed aside Zhao Yu's head and charged towards the battlefield where the four Tao Foundation powerhouses were clashing.
He had made all the calculations and arrangements he could; it was indeed unexpected that Zhao Yu's clone could still fight, but he had not given up.
What had to be done next was all on the blade!
"Stop him."
Seeing the Green-faced Ghost charging towards them, Yu Hu issued a direct command.
As soon as his words fell, two of the three registered martial masters from the Zhi Ge Court, who had been ready to strike from the outskirts of the battlefield, immediately charged towards the Green-faced Ghost.
These two were Hong Jing and Dai Huaxing, both fully-fledged martial masters cultivated by the Tiger Saber Gang.
Yan Yichen saw the scene unfold, his eyes shifting, but he said nothing and continued to take action against Shangguan Xiao.
Hong Jing, pale-faced and looking malnourished, charged the fastest. His large blade was enveloped by a greasy-looking green flame, emitting a sinister aura that significantly lowered the temperature around him.
His Implant was the Fire Attribute [Ice Flame Claw], with the trained Innate Qi being Ding Fire Evil Qi, and his energy being Ice Flame Power.
Ding Fire was a Yin Attribute flame, and the Evil Qi tended towards dark and odd, so the Ice Flame Power, while Fire Attribute in nature, was actually very Yin, cold, and soft, a rare type of 'cold flame.'
Hong Jing's blade strike towards Li Fei turned into a surge of green flames rushing towards him.
The next second, a dark golden blade light cut through the wave, slashing towards Hong Jing!
At this point, the Ghost Slash Blade in Li Fei's hand had changed in appearance, transformed into a Straight Slash Blade with a uniform width, narrower and longer than its original version.
"Hm?"
Hong Jing was somewhat shocked.
He could tell at a glance that only Innate Qi, not Force, was attached to the Ghost Slash Blade, but this energy was just too pure and too sharp, actually capable of directly penetrating his Ice Flame Power.
"Geng Metal True Qi?!"
A guess flashed through Hong Jing's mind as he swung his blade to collide fiercely with the approaching Ghost Slash Blade.
Clang—
A small notch was cut into Hong Jing's blade, and he was forced to take two steps back, his arm feeling numb.
"Such strong power!"
The surprise in Hong Jing's heart intensified.
He had been honing his skills at the Qi Change Middle Stage for many years; even though [Ice Flame Claw] and Ice Flame Power weren't known for strength, his own power far exceeded that of an ordinary martial master, yet he didn't expect to be outmatched by Li Fei!
He looked at the Li Fei in front of him, who had just broken through the wave of flames and now had some of it clinging onto him.
The green flames instantly burned through Li Fei's black robe and began scorching the Third Level Protective Clothing underneath.
Hong Jing's face broke into a smile.
His Ice Flame Power was penetrative, specializing in overcoming Protective Clothing, and its nature was poisonously soft and persistent, difficult to remove, and once it latched on, it would continue to affect the target.
Anyone hit by the Ice Flame Power would not only find their muscles and bones gradually stiffening, but their Implant would also begin to lose vitality!
Swoosh—
Li Fei stomped, shattering the stone slab under him, left a residual image in place, and charged at Hong Jing with extreme speed, slashing vertically with his blade.
As Hong Jing blocked with his blade, he was struck by an overwhelming force that split open his tiger's mouth, nearly causing him to drop his blade!
While retreating and dissipating the force, Hong Jing erupted with Ice Flame Power again, sending a wave towards Li Fei.
At the same time, two Short Blades attached to chains pierced towards Li Fei like venomous snakes from the side.
The registered martial master, Dai Huaxing, had also joined the fight.
Clang! Clang!
Li Fei turned and swung his blade, deflecting the incoming Short Blades, then leaped to the left to avoid the oncoming wave of flames.
Suddenly, the chains on the two flicked Short Blades seemed to come alive, changing direction in midair and swiftly circling around Li Fei.
The chains twined around Li Fei like two pythons, intending to constrict him within their coils.
The next second, like snake heads, the two Short Blades tore down from the air towards Li Fei, pulling the chains wrapped around him to tighten and attempt to bind him.
This was Dai Huaxing's killing move—Double Snake Binding Kill!
Many microscopic, invisible threads attached to the chains were secretions from Dai Huaxing's inner Implant, allowing him better control over the chains.
Furthermore, his trained Xuan Water Energy was characterized by its soft versatility, and combined with his extraordinary ability, he could use the chains to control weapons from a distance, as if having two exceptionally agile tentacles.
Just as Li Fei seemed about to be caught in Dai Huaxing's 'Double Snake Binding Kill,' Hong Jing seized the opportunity to rush forward and slash at Li Fei's neck with his blade.
The two of them were in perfect sync, having killed countless experts with such a technique!
Li Fei stood calmly in place, letting the two short blades stab towards him from the air. He suddenly swung his blade and slashed at the iron chains that were wrapping around him.
This time the blade he slashed out was no longer dark gold but blood-red.
When the Ghost Slash Blade hit the iron chains, a burst of blood-red aura exploded!
The blood-red aura stained the iron chains that were rapidly contracting around him, and in an instant, the transparent filamentous matter attached to the chains withered away. The two chains seemed to lose their vitality in a blink of an eye, transforming from mighty pythons into dead snakes, and their power greatly diminished!
Both Hong Jing and Dai Huaxing, as certified martial masters, had left many records of their fights, and Li Fei had long collected and studied these records thoroughly through Shangguan Xiao.
Therefore, Li Fei's move was highly targeted, using the Blood Slaughter Qi to deal with the Implants attached to the chains.
After temporarily disabling Dai Huaxing's weapon, Li Fei created an opportunity for a one-on-one fight with Hong Jing. He turned his head to look at Hong Jing rushing towards him, their gazes met.
Hong Jing's spirit was shocked, he instantly felt as if he was in a sea of blood with a strong sense of suffocation and fear coming over him.
However, he was not an ordinary Refining Strength Martial Master like the previous one; his spiritual power and willpower were much stronger, and so he was not influenced by the Blood Power for too long.
By the time he came to his senses, the Ghost Slash Blade was already stabbing towards his chest!
At the crucial moment, Hong Jing timely raised his left arm to block in front of his chest.
The Ghost Slash Blade broke through his protective force on the left arm and the Protective Clothing as if cutting through bamboo, then pierced his muscles, bones, and eventually came out on the other side of the left arm, only to be stopped by the Protective Clothing in front of his chest.
Hong Jing cried out in pain. Before he could react, a concentrated burst of Blood Slaughter Qi erupted from the Ghost Slash Blade and surged into his body.
Hong Jing only felt a wrenching pain in his chest, as if someone had driven a knife into his heart!
"Thud... Thud... Thud..."
His heart was beating slower and slower, his consciousness getting more and more blurred.
The last thing Hong Jing felt was the world spinning as if he was tumbling through the air.
The last scene he saw was his headless corpse slowly falling...
With a single slash, Li Fei took down Hong Jing and strode towards Dai Huaxing.
Dai Huaxing had already re-attached a new filmy substance to the chains; the two chains 'came to life' again, coiling towards Li Fei like giant pythons.
This time, Dai Huaxing spared no expense in exerting a great deal of force, giving the two chains a layer of Xuan Water Energy, like providing an extra layer of armor to the two giant pythons.
Double Snake Binding Kill reappeared!
Li Fei let the two chains wrap around him, allowing the two short blades to stab into his body.
He suddenly reached out and grabbed one of the chains, then violently yanked it towards himself!
A tremendous force came from the chain. Dai Huaxing stood firm, bursting forth Xuan Water Energy trying to overpower Li Fei, but the next second, he was forcibly pulled over towards Li Fei.
After stepping into the Qi Change Stage, Li Fei's body's endurance had further increased. The upper limit of his Blood Rage had increased from 7 to 11 beads. Not only that, but the Innate Qi could also amplify his strength, so now his full force was even stronger than many Refining Strength Martial Masters!
Dai Huaxing was shocked at heart and immediately controlled the two short blades to slash towards Li Fei's neck.
At that moment, he met Li Fei's gaze, as if seeing an endless sea of blood within!
Dai Huaxing's spirit was hugely impacted, the two short blades hesitated, while Li Fei seized the opportunity to slash his way.
This time, Li Fei chose to use the maximum limit of Blood Power, consuming 16.1 Blood Souls at once!
Thus, it wasn't until he had slashed off Dai Huaxing's head that Dai Huaxing finally came to his senses.
"Why are my moves ineffective against him?"
This was Dai Huaxing's last thought in life.
His two short blades had clearly struck Li Fei, and the chains had bound Li Fei. The Xuan Water Energy along with his Extraordinary Ability made the 'Double Snake Binding Kill' technique that should immobilize a person, so even if they tried to resist with their force, they would still be controlled for a few seconds.
Yet, Li Fei seemed totally unaffected.
Killing three Refining Strength Martial Masters in a short period, Li Fei also paid a significant price.
From the start, he had consumed 11 Blood Souls to unleash Blood Rage.
When he killed the Devilish Martial Master earlier, he had used 10 Blood Souls to unleash Blood Power.
Then, taking down Hong Jing and Dai Huaxing.
First, he used up all the accumulated Blood Slaughter Qi to destroy the Implants on Dai Huaxing's chains, followed by 10 Blood Souls to unleash Blood Power, and then 7 Blood Souls to unleash Blood Slaughter to completely settle with Hong Jing.
Finally, when killing Dai Huaxing, he used 16.1 Blood Souls to unleash Blood Power at its highest potency.
In total, considering the damage resisted, Li Fei had used up more than 65 Blood Souls!
He now had over 95 Blood Souls remaining, and he was 15 Blood Souls short of the requirement to activate the Transform Skill Blood Demon.
Li Fei continued to charge towards the battlefield where the four Tao Foundation Stage powerhouses were clashing.
Along the way, members of the Tiger Saber Gang fired at him instinctively, which he ignored completely.
A martial artist swung a broken streetlamp pole at him.
The dark gold blade light flashed, and the steel streetlamp was sliced into several pieces. Then, the Tiger Saber Gang's martial artist, who hadn't even seen the blade light clearly, was cut vertically from head to toe, his body split into two halves!
Following that, Li Fei streaked past several other Tiger Saber Gang members, casually slashing with his blade. Regardless of whether they tried to block with weapons or dodge, none could escape this deadly slash.
They were all cut in two!
Wherever the Green-faced Ghost went, weapons, limbs, blood, and guts were strewn all over the ground.
At this moment, this figure wearing an Evil Ghost Mask appeared as if a real demon from Hell itself—
Unstoppable!
Li Fei cut his way through to the battlefield of the four major Tao Foundation Stage strongmen.
Standing guard on the periphery was a certified martial master from Zhi Ge Court named Nie Yang, who was a famed swordsmanship expert and also a true confidant of Yan Yichen.
Originally, Nie Yang planned to confront and stop Li Fei, but Yan Yichen gave him a look from afar, and he stepped back silently.
And so, on this battlefield meant only for Tao Foundation Stage powerhouses—
The Green-faced Ghost officially joined the fight!
