Chapter 570: Chapter 542 Red Moon and Sheath

"Hiss—"

A terrifying tearing sound emanated.

For cultivators, their bodies are much stronger than those of ordinary people, otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to withstand such terrifying forces during battle.

For powerhouses like Li Chen and Andy who had reached this realm, their physical resilience had reached an extremely terrifying state.

It could be said that even if an ordinary person were to attack them with a knife, it would hardly be effective.

To them, only people armed with firearms might pose some threat, while others posed no danger at all.

However, their powerful physiques also granted them greater attack power.

Li Chen forcibly resisted Andy’s strike with his body, enduring the grating, unpleasant noise of the Red Moon screeching against his bones, continuously assaulting his nerves.

But he knew that he had no way out at this moment.

Even if I die, I will not make it easy for you!

Li Chen was known for holding grudges, although he didn’t see himself that way, but everyone who knew him was aware that he was someone who would retaliate for every slight.

Andy had tried to take his life several times, and this time, he had driven him into a corner.

Even in death, he would not make it easy for Andy.

If I can’t use my hands or feet, I still have my teeth!

Blood spurted from both of their bodies in that instant.

Differently, after being struck, Li Chen was directly kicked away by Andy, crashing heavily into the ground, with so many broken bones that even he himself didn’t know how many.

Andy, on the other hand, was clutching at his side of the face, half-kneeling on the ground.

In front of him lay something bloody.

It was his ear.

"Hahaha! Now you know the consequences of offending me, huh? Holy Mountain Disciple? What of it? Even in death, I won’t let you live happily!" Li Chen screamed shrilly with a laugh.

"Damn it! Damn you!!" Andy picked up the ear that Li Chen had bitten off, his expression terribly fierce and terrifying.

Yes, he was a cultivator, a powerful one.

Moreover, he was from the powerful Holy Mountain. But that didn’t mean he had the ability to regenerate limbs.

Especially a part like an ear, once bitten off, he could only get stitches at the hospital and no matter how it was stitched, it would still leave a scar.

This humiliation would follow him for the rest of his life.

How could Andy not be furious? What reason did he have not to be?

In his eyes, Li Chen was just a fish on the chopping block, an easy prey, but in the end, this piece of "fish" had bitten off one of his ears, which was a great insult to Andy.

"King of the Netherworld!"

"You deserve to die!!"

Andy, despite the intense pain, stood up with the Red Moon in his grip, his gaze towards Li Chen turning sinisterly frightening.

"It seems, I made a mistake. Initially, I wanted to continue playing with you, but now, it seems that a damn bastard like you should just be executed outright!"

"Kill me, then come over here?!" Li Chen’s eyes flickered with a cunning light as he stared at Andy.

Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Andy hesitated at first, then grew more doubtful.

He knew what kind of person Li Chen was, someone who would not just meekly wait for death.

But at this moment, Li Chen seemed almost impatient for him to come over, which made Andy hesitate even more.

He suspected there was some sort of plot.

"What now? You want to kill me, but when the moment to strike a final blow is here, you hesitate?" Li Chen said, tauntingly looking at Andy.

In response to Li Chen’s mockery, Andy became even more hesitant.

"What exactly is his scheme?" Andy furrowed his brows tightly.

Meanwhile, Li Chen silently began regaining his breath.

Andy understood him, just as he understood Andy.

This time, it was a psychological tactic.

He actually had no real strength left to resist, thus he used such words to provoke Andy, causing him to hesitate, which gave him time to catch his breath.

Watching Andy, Li Chen’s expression remained the same, but secretly, his True Qi began to whirl furiously.

"Playing tricks and deceptions!" Finally, after much hesitation, an impatient look crossed Andy’s face.

He had waited so long for this moment.

Now that Li Chen was right in front of him, how could he miss this opportunity?

"King of the Netherworld! Die!"

A furious roar burst from Andy’s mouth.

The Red Moon, with a dazzling red glow, violently slashed down towards Li Chen.

"Not good!" Seeing Andy actually strike, Li Chen’s pupils suddenly dilated.

His strength had recovered a bit, but under these circumstances, it was still nowhere near enough to contend with the current Andy.

Especially with Andy wielding the Red Moon.

Although Li Chen still hadn’t figured out whether Andy’s sudden increase in strength was because of the Red Moon or not, from the last strike, he had deeply felt the immense power of the Red Moon.

If he couldn’t block this move, it would mean death!

Instinctively, Li Chen reached into his bosom.

If he relied solely on his arm, he would never be able to block it. What he needed now was something that could block the Red Moon, even if just for a moment.

Regardless of what he was pulling out from his chest, Li Chen instinctively used it to block the Red Moon.

"Clang!!!"

A clear, audible metallic clash rang out.

Andy and Li Chen were both stunned at the same moment.

Because Li Chen had blocked it, he really blocked it!

Unexpectedly for both of them, it got blocked!

"How is that possible?!" an incredulous voice came from Andy.

The next moment, he saw that what Li Chen used to block his strike was actually a sword scabbard!

A blood-red scabbard!

"What is this?!" Andy’s pupils suddenly constricted.

And the moment Andy comprehended, Li Chen was also very surprised.

"Why has the power become so light?" Li Chen wondered in his heart.

He had just felt the might of the Red Moon with his own body.

Not to mention blocking it, it was weird enough that he hadn’t been completely blown away with his object.

But, he really blocked it.

And it was the scabbard he found under the Sacred Pool that had blocked the Red Moon.

Without thinking too much, Li Chen instinctively swung his hand, suddenly deflecting the Red Moon to one side, and rushed straight toward Andy.

"Boom!!"

A headbutt heavily landed on Andy’s chest.

From Andy’s chest, a clear audible sound of bones breaking was heard, and instantly, Andy was sent staggering back by Li Chen.

"How... How can this be possible?!" Andy’s feet scraped the ground, trailing a long distance, almost as if he had forgotten the pain, staring dumbfounded at the Red Moon in his hand, seemingly still not recovered from the reality of the Red Moon being blocked.

Always, in his hands, the Red Moon was a sharp weapon that broke through everything, and after it had undergone its metamorphosis, it had become even sharper and more monstrous, to the point that even he seemed to be losing control over it.

But now, the Red Moon was actually blocked by a mere scabbard.

That was just a scabbard, not a weapon!

"What’s impossible about that?" Li Chen, however, shook himself and stood up, looking at Andy and grinning, blood sliding down from the corner of his mouth, but Li Chen paid no attention to it.

"Your knife can hurt people, is it so odd for someone else’s scabbard to receive your blade?

Li Chen didn’t explain to Andy, but he felt that the scabbard being able to block the Red Moon must be due to some connection between them.

Vaguely, he also felt there was some inexplicable connection between them.

Otherwise, why would there be murals of the Red Moon carved in the water of the Sacred Pool? And why was the scabbard exactly at the bottom of the Sacred Pool?

"I don’t believe it!" Andy, looking at Li Chen, his eyes bloodshot: "The Red Moon is a Peerless Murderous Weapon, how could a mere ordinary scabbard possibly block my Red Moon? That must have been a fluke!"

The next moment, Andy once again madly charged toward Li Chen.

Li Chen, holding the scabbard in one hand, began to fend off the Red Moon.

"Clang clang clang..."

A series of clashing sounds resounded, and Li Chen was somewhat surprised to find that his feeling hadn’t been mistaken, Andy’s attack had indeed weakened.

And not just a bit, but considerably.

No, rather it should be said that the attack of the Red Moon weakened.

Andy’s own strength was inferior to Li Chen’s, but with the aid of the Red Moon, he had burst forth with a terrifying power and had an absolute overpowering advantage even against Li Chen.

But this advantage seemed to have shifted after the appearance of the scabbard.

Li Chen even somewhat surprisedly found that after colliding with the scabbard, even the attack speed and frequency of the Red Moon had greatly reduced.

"Bang!"

Li Chen saw his chance and smashed the scabbard hard onto Andy’s shoulder.

Immediately, a dreadful sound of bone breaking came from Andy’s right shoulder.

"Crack!!!"

Seizing the opportunity, Li Chen extended his other hand without caring about the sharpness of the Red Moon, grabbed its blade firmly, and yanked hard.

The Red Moon was forcefully snatched from Andy’s hands by Li Chen.

"Red Moon... My Red Moon!! No!!" In the moment Li Chen took away the Red Moon, an agonizing scream louder than when an ear had been bitten off erupted from Andy’s mouth.

"Bang!!"

The next moment, Li Chen leaped and heavily stomped on Andy’s head.

Andy’s entire body was smashed down, kneeling onto the ground.

"Crack—"

The Li Chen who fell to the ground also tumbled over, simultaneously, sounds of bones under unbearable burden emanated.

Looking at the blood-stained face of Andy, Li Chen’s mouth curved into a faint smile: "I won’t make the same mistake as you, so I’ll finish you off first, then talk trash later."

With that, Li Chen wielded the Red Moon in his hand and directly sliced across Andy’s neck.

Before dying, Andy’s gaze towards Li Chen was filled with shock and confusion.

Why? Why did he lose?
