“This kid is too arrogant. Since that's the case, let's take the opportunity to kill him.”
Bloodhand King saw this and was overjoyed. With a thought, he circulated his true essence to the extreme, and as he unleashed his palm attack, the blood energy surged, increasing its power once again.
Just as Bloodhand King's attack was about to land on Qin Chen.
Buzz!
A black halo suddenly appeared around Qin Chen's body. Following the halo, the Demon Armor instantly manifested, covering Qin Chen's body.
Boom!
In the next moment, a torrent of bloody true essence crashed against him like a wild wave hitting a reef, instantly engulfing Qin Chen. However, no matter how violently the blood torrent struck, the Demon Armor on Qin Chen merely flickered with a black halo, and he remained unmoved, completely unharmed.
With just the indestructible Holy Body's defense, Qin Chen had already reached the ordinary seventh-level Martial King level. Now, with the addition of the Demon Armor's defense, even if faced with a mid-stage seventh-level Martial King's attack, Qin Chen would dare to withstand it, let alone someone like Bloodhand King, a peak early-stage seventh-level Martial King.
“How about it? Do you still want to make a move?”
Brushing off the dust from his shoulders, Qin Chen said indifferently, while the true power within him surged, rapidly healing his previous injuries. His previously somewhat fatigued spirit was restored to its peak, not diminished in the slightest.
Not only that, but after the bloody battle with Bloodhand King, his momentum became even more condensed, carrying a strong killing intent, making him appear even more threatening, with a more vigorous vitality.
“It’s impossible!”
Bloodhand King’s expression was frozen in disbelief, his eyes wide open in shock.
In the previous battle, although he hadn’t been able to take down Qin Chen, he at least injured him.
As a Martial King strongman, with endless true essence, he was confident that if he continued fighting, he could completely tear through Qin Chen's defenses and gradually kill him.
But what was unbelievable to Bloodhand King was that his all-out strike had not only lost its previous effectiveness, but had also been blocked by the armor on Qin Chen. This made Bloodhand King so frustrated that he felt like spitting blood.
The key was that not only that, but it was also unknown what secret technique Qin Chen had used, as the injuries he suffered earlier had not only healed but his spirit had also been adjusted to peak condition, his aura increasing instead of decreasing.
This gave Bloodhand King the feeling that if he continued fighting, not only would he be unable to kill Qin Chen, but instead, Qin Chen would grow stronger and more terrifying with each battle.
This was no longer human; he was simply a monster!
At this moment, Bloodhand King’s face turned ashen, for the first time feeling what despair meant in front of a Martial Venerable.
“Since you no longer want to take action, then I will take my leave first.”
Qin Chen smiled faintly, his figure flickering, disappearing into the passage.
This time, Bloodhand King, still in shock, just stared blankly at Qin Chen leaving, not even bothering to move.
It wasn’t until half a moment after Qin Chen departed that he regained his senses, his expression gradually retracting, returning to a ferocious look.
“Damn it, I was tricked by this guy. Even if the armor on him has amazing defensive power, defense still requires true power to activate. I am a Martial King strongman with endless true essence. No matter what, once that kid's true power is consumed, recovering won’t be as easy as I have it. As long as I keep attacking madly, he will eventually be unable to withstand it.”
Bloodhand King stomped his foot in frustration.
“But it's no big deal; now I have so many demon crystals. As long as I absorb them all, I might be able to step into the mid-stage Martial King realm. By then, even if that kid’s defense is strong, he won’t be my opponent. In this Demon Secret Realm, I must kill him.”
