Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate - Chapter 73

Chapter 73: The Enticing Fragrance of Qi and Blood Chapter 73: The Enticing Fragrance of Qi and Blood The ten-meter-tall, blood-colored creature had also caught sight of the large group of disciples from the five major sects.

Remarkably, it showed no fear.

With quick movements, it collected the lifeless bodies scattered on the ground, stuffing them into its wide-open mouth as blood sprayed everywhere.

Then, lifting its head towards the sky, it let out a deafening roar and began chasing the fleeing disciples, closely following them.

“Quick!

Move faster!” a disciple yelled in panic, urging his peers to pick up the pace.

“Senior Brother, save me!

I don’t want to die!” another screamed in fear, seeking protection.

The fleeing disciples were terrified, wishing they could grow extra limbs to speed up their desperate escape.

Witnessing this, the chief disciples from the five sects couldn’t just stand by as their junior brothers and sisters faced their untimely end.

“Go and provide support!” one of the chief disciples ordered decisively.

“Quick!

Stop that monster!” another exclaimed, urgency evident in his voice.

Immediately, several experts from the Mysterious Platform realm sprang into action.

Boom!

A thunderbolt fell from the sky, hitting the top of the blood-colored humanoid beast without hesitation.

Sparks flew in an instant, and strands of electricity writhed around its form.

“Roar!” The blood-colored humanoid monstrosity bellowed in pain as a deep gash, exposing bone, appeared on its head.

But almost immediately, the flesh and blood on its skull seemed to come alive, knitting the wound closed in an instant!

At that moment, several long-range attacks hit the creature, including violet ice shards and spells charged with powerful toxins.

However, these attacks only briefly slowed the monster’s advance.

The creature’s speed had already surpassed that of the Spiritual Awakening realm, making this slight delay inconsequential.

It quickly caught up to a male disciple and grabbed him with one hand.

Rip!

A living cultivator from the Spiritual Awakening realm, along with his defensive artifact of the same level, was instantly turned into a pile of dismembered remains.

“What?!” a senior disciple exclaimed in disbelief.

“How can this monster, radiating only a Middle-stage Mysterious Platform realm aura, have such immense strength?!” another disciple asked, his voice a mix of confusion and fear.

“Its ability to heal is unbelievable!

A normal Mysterious Platform realm cultivator would have been incapacitated by now!” a third added, clearly shocked by the creature’s endurance.

“…” The cultivators from the five sects wore expressions of utter horror.

At the same time, a glint of insatiable hunger and thirst appeared in the chaotic, wild eyes of the blood-colored creature as it picked up the dismembered body from the ground and stuffed it into its mouth like a starved tiger.

Taking advantage of this moment, more Mysterious Platform realm cultivators launched their attacks, targeting the blood-colored creature’s body.

“Roar!” The creature let out a mournful cry of pain as its flesh was torn apart, looking especially pitiful.

Its advance halted completely.

Yet, it continued to chew on the remains in its mouth.

Blood flowed profusely, creating a particularly gruesome sight.

Seeing this, some of the less experienced female disciples turned pale and nearly vomited.

From within his palanquin, Jiang Chen used his Villain Eye on the blood-colored creature, but to no avail.

It was clear this creature was purely monstrous, not a supporting character in their story.

Or perhaps it had once been human but had undergone a transformation, making it no longer recognizable as a supporting character.

At the same time, Ye Fan was carefully observing the creature.

He was struck by a sense of awe, thinking to himself, ‘This monster has such rich qi and blood!’ ‘The various animals and demonic beasts within this Cave Heaven Secret Realm must have fallen prey to it, but it’s a mystery how this being came to exist.

It’s not human nor demon, an absolute enigma!’ Then, with a spark of excitement, Ye Fan considered, ‘This rich qi and blood…

Haha, my Wordless Heavenly Jade absorbs qi and blood whenever I kill an opponent.

Eliminating such a creature could bring me enormous benefits.’ ‘Yet, the full extent of the monster’s powers is still unknown.

Best to watch a little longer.’ With that thought, he discreetly moved back a few steps.

Jiang Chen, observing Ye Fan, narrowed his eyes thoughtfully at his cautious behavior.

‘This fellow is exceptionally careful,’ he pondered silently.

‘Will he make a significant move during this attack and steal the spotlight?’ Jiang Chen wondered, intrigued by what Ye Fan might do next.

Suddenly, the blood-colored creature let out a series of fearless roars, “Roar, roar, roar!” and charged towards the crowd.

“Attack!” the lead disciples of the five sects commanded in unison.

The disciples unleashed their Origin Power one after another, sending a flurry of attacks towards the enemy.

In an instant, the battlefield lit up with the brilliant glow of various spells, creating a stunning visual display.

Boom, boom, boom!

A multitude of attacks hit the blood-colored creature, tearing its flesh apart and revealing its horrifying skeleton.

Yet, despite its agonizing roar, the creature continued its advance, causing the closest cultivators to retreat.

Luckily, despite the creature’s formidable resistance, immense vitality, and remarkable ability to heal, it was unable to hold up against the collective force of many attackers.

With the continuous onslaught of various spells and offensive artifacts, its body was constantly being destroyed, and its regenerative powers could not match the rate of damage being dealt.

In just a short span of time, almost all of the flesh on the blood-colored creature was gone, leaving behind only a massive, red skeleton.

It fell to the ground, completely still, signifying the cessation of its destructive spree.

The crowd gazed at the massive, blood-colored skeleton lying on the ground, holding their breath in anticipation.

“Is it truly dead?” a true disciple inquired with caution.

“My goodness, what a formidable creature!” another marveled in astonishment.

“We from the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain have lost five disciples,” came a mournful voice from among them.

“Such a tragedy was completely unexpected!” “…” While they exchanged words, releasing sighs of relief, unexpectedly, a powerful and pure surge of qi and blood emanated from the giant skull of the crimson beast, surprisingly paired with an enticing fragrance.

“What is that fragrance?!” a disciple wondered aloud, taking in the air with curiosity.

“It’s incredible!

Just breathing it in seems to boost my qi and blood, giving me more energy!” another exclaimed, clearly thrilled by the experience.

“This must mean there’s some extraordinary treasure hidden inside the creature’s skull!” a seasoned cultivator hypothesized, his eyes shining with eagerness.

“…” As the enticing aroma spread, a wave of longing washed over many in the crowd, their eyes lighting up with greed.

Among the crowd, Ye Fan felt an unprecedented excitement.

‘The Wordless Heavenly Jade is actually reacting!

This has never happened before!’ he marveled internally, stunned by the unexpected response.

‘The treasure hidden within this blood-colored creature must be immensely beneficial for the Wordless Heavenly Jade.

Securing it could significantly accelerate my strength!’ His heart swelled with joy, and he instinctively moved closer.

Yet, he maintained self-control.

This creature had been defeated by the Mysterious Platform realm experts of the five sects, and Ye Fan had no claim to it.

To attempt to take the treasure now would mean challenging everyone there.

Although he was confident in his ability to confront ordinary Mysterious Platform realm cultivators, facing a group of more than a dozen or twenty from the top sects was a challenge beyond his current strength.

Jiang Chen noticed Ye Fan’s subtle movement and couldn’t help but think, ‘Ye Fan seems really interested in that mysterious treasure!

It could be a critical moment for him!’ ‘To challenge his chance, we’ll have to compete with him for the treasure,’ he thought quietly, quickly developing some strategies in his mind.

In that moment, Deng Jianying, the lead disciple of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain, stepped forward and confidently announced, “It appears this creature conceals some treasure!

We should retrieve it and decide who it belongs to.” “We from the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain specialize in dissection.

Let us take care of this,” he proposed authoritatively.

“Agreed!” The rest voiced their approval one by one.

They then watched closely as the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain members approached.

Just as the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain members were about to proceed, a voice rang out in alarm, “This is bad!” Instantaneously, the expressions of all the Mysterious Platform realm experts in the vicinity changed dramatically.

“Stop for a moment!” Duan Ziming urgently ordered.

“More blood-colored monsters are on their way here!” “Damn it, there are thirteen of them, and some are even larger than the one we just took down!” Xu Yuan, the chief disciple of the Azure Jade Sect, announced in shock.

“Quick!

Get ready to face them!” Mu Tao, the chief disciple of the Floating Spirit Sect, called out, mobilizing the cultivators.

“…” A wave of panic swept through them, with fear plainly etched on their faces.
