The moment their palms met, they both retreated.
As Yu Daohan retreated, he sucked in a breath with one hand, spitting out flames towards the old witch.
Seeing this, the old witch spat out a bead radiating pink light, absorbing all the incoming flames.
Suddenly, a short black sword exuding a deathly aura appeared before her.
The old witch, seeing the short sword aimed at the bead, quickly opened her mouth, swallowed it, and tried to dodge to the side, but it was too late.
The Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword pierced her shoulder, passing straight through, and dark red blood flowed from the wound.
Yu Daohan cursed inwardly.
What a great opportunity, wasted. If it had hit the old witch's inner core, she would have been severely injured, if not killed.
The old witch glared fiercely at Yu Daohan, her lips twitching, "Nine Lives Reincarnation Tear, kid, you're ruthless. You're trying to cripple my cultivation."
Yu Daohan chuckled mockingly, "Let alone cripple my cultivation, I want to skin you alive and make a fur coat right now."
"You're seeking death!" The old witch suddenly became enraged, extending her claws towards Yu Daohan.
Her speed was more than just a little faster than before.
In the blink of an eye, she was in front of Yu Daohan, raising her claws to strike.
Yu Daohan quickly condensed his Earth Kun Hand to block the claws aimed at his face.
The old witch raised her other hand, clenched it into a fist, and struck towards Yu Daohan.
Bang!
Yu Daohan took the punch squarely, spitting blood, but he gritted his teeth and condensed his Sky Gan Palm with his other hand, striking towards the old witch's cheek, "Damn it!"
Bang!
The old witch also took the Sky Gan Palm squarely on her face, her nose clearly broken and crooked.
They both exchanged another palm strike and retreated, evenly matched.
"Ptooey."
Yu Daohan stabilized himself, spitting out the residual blood in his mouth, enduring the intense pain in his cheek.
He suspected his cheekbone was broken from that punch, and his jaw was dislocated.
Looking at the old witch who had also retreated, although she hadn't vomited blood, her nose was clearly crooked.
In comparison, he didn't seem to have suffered any losses; he had profited handsomely.
Yu Daohan gritted his teeth and used his hand to pop his dislocated jaw back into place.
The bone-piercing pain made Yu Daohan's eyes water, but he gritted his teeth, put on a look of enjoyment, and said with a smile, "So refreshing!"
In a fight, one could lose anything but momentum, especially against an evenly matched opponent.
Yu Daohan raised his hand and beckoned dismissively, "Fight again!"
The old witch stared at Yu Daohan with a dark expression, muttering under her breath, "This kid is truly a mad dog!"
Seeing that the old witch hadn't attacked, Yu Daohan suddenly raised his hand.
The Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword, which had been shot out earlier, flew back from behind the old witch.
Sensing the deathly aura behind her, the old witch turned abruptly. Seeing the incoming Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword, she could only dodge to the side.
Yu Daohan seized this opportunity, condensed his Earth Kun Hand, and thrust it forward.
When the old witch turned back, Yu Daohan was already in front of her, his Earth Kun Hand aimed directly at her heart, shouting, "I'll take your life!"
The old witch extended a hand, grabbed the Earth Kun Hand that was stabbing her chest, and raised her other hand, extending her claws to grasp at Yu Daohan's neck.
Yu Daohan's other hand reached out, beckoning the Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword stuck in the tree.
The Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword immediately flew over. Yu Daohan grabbed it and swung it towards the approaching claws.
Squelch~
The Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword cut through like tofu. Half of the old witch's palm and five fingers were severed.
The old witch looked on in shock. Yu Daohan swung the Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword again towards the old witch's neck.
He was about to decapitate her!
The old witch quickly retreated, dodging the swung Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword, and glared at Yu Daohan with fury.
Yu Daohan ignored the old witch's expression and looked at the Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword in his hand with surprise.
Damn, it actually worked.
During his year of cultivation, Yu Daohan had accidentally discovered that the Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword could be held and used as a weapon.
But he had tried multiple times without success. However, in this moment of danger, he decided to try one last desperate attempt.
To his surprise, it actually worked.
Yu Daohan was overjoyed and burst into laughter, his face taking on a villainous expression.
But the pain in his cheek made him immediately close his mouth.
Yu Daohan condensed several more drops of Reincarnation Blood Tears to form another Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword and grabbed it.
Now he held a Reincarnation Blood Tear short sword in each hand.
With two swords in hand, the world was his, each strike dealing 999 damage...
A phrase suddenly popped into Yu Daohan's mind.
"If you're my brother, come and fight me. I'll be waiting for you in the deep mountains..."
The old witch looked at the two swords in Yu Daohan's hands with some apprehension, contemplating whether to retreat.
The short swords formed from Reincarnation Blood Tears were too powerful; they had severed half of her palm in an instant.
But as a millennium-old great demon, her pride would not allow her to flee like this.
The old witch looked at the surrounding fox spirits and shouted, "My little ones, attack for your ancestor!"
The fox spirits nearby felt miserable. If they dared to attack, they would have done so already.
Those two short swords in the kid's hands could even sever their ancestor's palm; attacking would be like offering themselves up for experience.
Seeing that no one dared to attack, the old witch let out a fox roar.
Although unwilling, the fox spirits had no choice but to charge forward.
Yu Daohan looked at the at least two dozen fox spirits around him without fear, feeling rather eager to fight and impatient to slash something.
As the saying goes, once people gain strength, they become arrogant, and Yu Daohan was no exception.
Yu Daohan now saw these fox spirits as if they were rotten cabbage, shouting, "You little trash, come up and give me some fun."
"Compatriots, charge!" someone among the fox spirits shouted.
The other fox spirits suddenly felt a surge of adrenaline and charged towards Yu Daohan like a tide.
Yu Daohan swung the Reincarnation Blood Tear short swords in both hands. The fox spirits in the front row were instantly cut in half.
Yu Daohan's Reincarnation Blood Tear short swords continued to swing.
Wherever they passed, fox spirits were cut in half, without exception.
Blood, brains, and internal organs littered the ground, a scene of utter carnage.
Yu Daohan, however, showed no signs of fatigue.
Dealing with these fox spirits was like chopping vegetables.
No, it was even easier than that.
A fox spirit hiding at the back, enjoying the show, secretly rejoiced.
Fortunately, it hadn't charged forward, or it would have been cut in half like the others.
And it was this fox spirit who had suddenly shouted for everyone to charge together.
In this situation, only an idiot would charge forward.
Since they were all going to die anyway, they might as well let others die first, and perhaps it would avoid their own death.
At this moment, survival was the most important thing.
