How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

Bloodthirsty Second closely pursued Chen Yu, and at the beginning, he quickly closed the gap.

But in the next instant, Chen Yu's speed suddenly increased, widening the distance between them.

"As expected of the prodigy ranked thirty-sixth on the 'Prodigy Rankings', his speed is so fast."

Chen Yu was slightly shocked within his mind, having underestimated the speed of Bloodthirsty Second.

He had just activated his Purple Cloud Cloak and, with the stored power in his heart, managed to outpace Bloodthirsty Second and quickly create a gap.

Little did he know, Bloodthirsty Second was even more astonished.

He had killed countless people and very few of his peers could exceed his speed. Each chase also wouldn't last long!

However, this time,

if things continued this way, he would be left behind by Chen Yu.

"Boy, the more you struggle, the more fun I'll have tormenting you later!"

Bloodthirsty Second sneered, his face twitching with bands of flesh.

Whirring~

The true essence of blood around him diffused, forming circles of blood-colored swirls rotating around him.

Whoosh—

Bloodthirsty Second's speed suddenly increased by about sixty percent, transforming into a blur of blood-red shadow, charging out with intimidating momentum.

Chen Yu's Spiritual Sense swept over the accelerated Bloodthirsty Second, who had unknowingly deployed some secret technique that caused a sudden surge in speed.

At this rate, he would be caught by the other party, unless he used some of his trump cards.

Boom!

With Bloodthirsty Second rapidly approaching, the intense Blood Evil Qi shot straight towards Chen Yu's mind, affecting him for an instant.

Then, Bloodthirsty Second swung his axe, creating a twenty-zhang-long shadow of a blood axe, chopping down with an aura of Blood Evil that could instill fear in those with weaker spiritual power, diminishing their resistance.

But Chen Yu, as a Demon Cultivator and possessing an overbearing demonic intent, had reached the peak of the Early-stage Sky Sea Realm with his spiritual power. It was very pure and refined, thanks to the Moon Spirit Ore Mother and half a Jade Pendant.

He was not affected at all and immediately launched a counterattack.

The True Yuan Sea boiled as Demon Pattern True Essence surged crazily, gathering on Chen Yu's left arm, merging with a black and eerie demonic pattern.

At this moment, the Demonic Qi around Chen Yu was overwhelming, casting a menacing demonic aura as he struck back.

Bloodthirsty Second felt a slight trembling in his spirit and blood, his own imposing presence reduced a notch.

He was inwardly startled, as he now sensed the feeling of facing an opponent of the same level as himself!

Swallowing Cloud Demon Fist!

A massive pitch-black Demon Fist rose into the sky, crazily devouring the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and Demonic Qi, continuously growing in size.

Bang!

Two tyrannical and crazed forces collided fiercely.

Nearby mountains and forests were flattened.

"Not good, this kid is tricky!"

From behind, Bloodthirsty Leader suddenly saw the earth-shattering explosion in the distance and felt something was amiss.

Although he was cruel and bloodthirsty, he was not brainless; otherwise, he wouldn't have survived to this day.

Immediately, Bloodthirsty Leader sped up, heading over.

Thud, thud!

Chen Yu took a few steps back to stabilize his figure, feeling a powerful surge of Blood Evil Qi rushing into his body, stirring wildly.

However, Chen Yu's physique was extremely formidable, and he forced it out of his body in an instant.

On the other side, Bloodthirsty Second took three steps back, his face filled with astonishment.

He hadn't expected such an outcome!

At that moment, he even doubted if he had remembered Chen Yu's ranking on the "Prodigy Rankings" incorrectly.

"Good lad, to be able to confront me head-on, it seems your strength far exceeds your rank. But this makes it even more interesting."

Bloodthirsty Second's expression returned to normal, once again revealing a cruel smile.

Chen Yu looked directly at Bloodthirsty Second, and from that strike, he was able to roughly gauge the other's bottom line. If he were to use some of his trump cards, he could win.

However, at that moment, he sensed a strong fluctuation of True Yuan rapidly approaching him.

"It's Bloodthirsty Leader."

Chen Yu thought inwardly.

Bloodthirsty Leader was stronger than Bloodthirsty Second. If the two joined forces, that would be the true Bloodthirsty Double Kill, unstoppable by anyone!

Swoosh!

Chen Yu turned to leave, leaving behind a trail of black and purple Qi flow.

"Don't run, you rascal!"

Bloodthirsty Second immediately gave chase.

He had taken an interest in Chen Yu and would not let go easily.

If he didn't tear Chen Yu to pieces this time, he would feel he didn't live up to his name.

...

The vast circular arena was like a painting scroll, displaying a variety of brilliant confrontations.

"As expected of Fallen Moon Venerable, the rightful number one on the 'Prodigy Rankings', with the highest number of imprints so far."

As the number one ranked on the "Prodigy Rankings," about seventy percent of the people present were paying attention to Fallen Moon Venerable's moves.

"Eh, that seems to be Li Wenyi from Carefree Palace, he actually repelled Xiao Qian, who is ranked twentieth!"

"Bloodthirsty Second has caught up to Chen Yu!"

A plump middle-aged man from Heavenly Jade Sect chuckled.

He was the Great Elder of Heavenly Jade Sect's Heavenly Feather Peak lineage, and Zhuo Buhuan was his disciple.

Zhuo Buhuan's death was not directly related to Chen Yu, but it had a significant impact on the Heavenly Feather Peak branch, hence he harbored discontent towards Chen Yu.

Beside him, the higher-ups of Black Demon Valley looked somewhat tense.

Chen Yu was Silent Blood King's disciple, with high expectations, and in the next "Prodigy Rankings" event, he might compete for the top ten or even the top five.

"This Bloodthirsty Double Kill has a lot of nerve to dare to hunt down a True Disciple of my Black Demon Valley."

An elder with a long beard snorted.

"The Prodigy Rankings battle is, by nature, a cruel competition, where the strong rise and the weak are eliminated. I hope the older generation of Black Demon Valley won't seek personal revenge when the time comes."

The plump middle-aged man said with a smile.

At this moment, within the Array world, Chen Yu and Bloodthirsty Second clashed with each strike!

Surrounded by the outside world, everyone could only rely on their eyes to observe, unable to detect any aura, even the Condensed Star King was no exception.

Therefore, they could only see Chen Yu clash with the Bloodthirsty Second in a hard hit, seemingly unscathed.

The surprised expression of the rotund middle-aged man softened slightly, his eyebrows furrowing momentarily before he regained his composure.

"Ha ha, Elder Zheng is right, but please don't underestimate the True Disciple of Black Demon Valley."

The bearded elder immediately stroked his beard and laughed, slightly proud.

But in his heart, he was also very surprised, had Chen Yu's strength reached the point where he could compete with the Bloodthirsty Second?

That was the power ranked thirty-sixth on the "Genius List"!

The standoff between the elders of Black Demon Valley and Heavenly Jade Sect attracted quite a bit of attention.

"I think Chen Yu might have used some secret technique to block Bloodthirsty Second's hit, look how he ran off immediately!"

"However, Chen Yu won't be able to escape. Bloodthirsty Second will never let him get away alive!"

The rest of the crowd commented on the confrontation between the two geniuses as they watched.

Time passed, and after the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Bloodthirsty Second still had not caught up to Chen Yu.

This pursuit attracted the attention of many talented individuals.

During this time, Bloodthirsty Leader encountered Shangguan Feiyun wielding the Sky Dragon Spear and, after a few exchanges of blows, Bloodthirsty Leader retreated and went to look for the Second's trail.

"Chen Yu is quite smart, playing hide and seek with Bloodthirsty Second. With his Purple Cloud Cloak, he is even more agile, choosing areas with obstacles to lead Bloodthirsty Second on a wild goose chase!"

"Amazing, ranked ninety-four on the 'Genius List', he has been able to keep up with Bloodthirsty Second for so long!"

Hearing the surrounding conversations, the facial expression of the Heavenly Jade Sect's rotund middle-aged man grew slightly sterner.

An hour passed.

Bloodthirsty Second still hadn't caught up with Chen Yu, the distance between them growing larger and larger.

"You damned brat, have the guts to fight me, what's with all this hiding!" shouted Bloodthirsty Second, cursing out loud.

The Bloodthirsty Double Kill had an extreme lust for killing and would always eliminate their target, so Bloodthirsty Second pursued Chen Yu relentlessly.

But Chen Yu was running circles around him. As a Body Cultivator, his agility far surpassed Bloodthirsty Second's, and aided by the Purple Cloud Cloak, with occasional charging of his heart, Chen Yu didn't have to worry about Bloodthirsty Second's threats at all.

"I haven't seen Bloodthirsty Leader for half a day now, what's going on?" Chen Yu wondered.

Normally, the Bloodthirsty Double Kill should have joined forces against him by now.

"Can't be careless, the Bloodthirsty Double Kill are not only murderous but also cunning and deceitful!" Chen Yu silently cautioned himself.

"However, it's almost dark."

Half an hour later, the sky grew dark.

Chen Yu kept increasing the distance from Bloodthirsty Second, yet the latter was still able to track his movements.

"This guy, he just won't give up."

Chen Yu looked at Bloodthirsty Second with slight annoyance, the man was like an annoying bug.

His goal was not just to be among the top forty on the "Genius List", not even the top thirty!

At a certain moment, Chen Yu made a decision!

After more running around in circles, night fell.

"The moon is dark, and the wind is high...a night for a killing!"

Chen Yu suddenly stopped, standing on a tree branch, perfectly still, concealing his breath.

In an instant, a mysterious dark power permeated the area.

Chen Yu's skin began to darken and seemed to shimmer with a black light.

In a single breath, Chen Yu became pitch-black, and his surroundings were even darker; if he remained motionless, he might as well merge with the dark.

This was the bloodline power of the Night Winged Wolf!

Whoosh!

Bloodthirsty Second suddenly stopped mid-air, his eyes full of confusion as he scanned the surroundings, releasing his Spiritual Sense.

"Where did this kid go?" he thought to himself.

Had he lost him?

If Big Brother knew about this, it would be so embarrassing!

Chasing down someone of lower cultivation and ranking, and still letting him escape.

Suddenly!

Bloodthirsty Second felt an eerie chill on his back.

At first, he didn't take it seriously, but when he turned around, his expression changed drastically, and goosebumps stood up all over his body as he swung his blood axe.

Whoosh!

A dark shadow rushed at him, fast as lightning.

Only when the shadow drew near did Bloodthirsty Second manage to see it clearly, his face revealing even more shock.

This person... was Chen Yu!

Clang!

He swung his blood axe to meet Chen Yu's fist, and in the silent night, a loud, sharp clash of metal rang out.

Step, step, step...

Bloodthirsty Second retreated eight steps, his arms numb and sweaty palms cold.

In this exchange, he had been completely overpowered by Chen Yu!

And for a moment, he even felt a sense of crisis!

Bloodthirsty Second gathered his True Yuan, readying his blood axe.

But after the one exchange, Chen Yu had already vanished without a trace.

Suddenly.

Bloodthirsty Second noticed a pain in his shoulder, and upon looking, there was a blood hole that wasn't there before.

A cold flame entered his body, spreading everywhere, devouring his life force!

"I've been injured by him!" Bloodthirsty Second found it hard to believe.

At that moment.

From the darkness, a weak, cold breath once again assaulted him…
