Chapter 1073: Chapter 1073: Night Raid in the Rain

"Sigh...It has been a long time since I drew anything, and my skills have really declined!"

Fang Bai put away his tools, dusted off his hands, and looked at his "artwork," clearly not too satisfied.

While carving two small turtles on Zu Yu’s face, Fang Bai had infused each stroke with True Essence Force. The force penetrated Zu Yu’s flesh, blood, muscles, and bones to such an extent that Zu Yu could no longer use the Disguise Technique.

That meant, unless Zu Yu destroyed his entire face, the two small turtles would stay with him for life, impossible to remove.

Actually, for Zu Yu, having two small turtles carved on his face could be considered lucky. If Fang Bai had been crueler, it wouldn’t have been his face that was destroyed but his very life.

After admiring his "masterpiece" for a moment, Fang Bai stood up and rushed back into the curtain of rain.

Fang Bai did not immediately return to his residence but released his Divine Sense, spreading it towards the core area of the Purple Flame Sect Headquarter. He quickly sensed the presence of Elder of Tribute Hong Qitian in a grand main hall within a luxurious courtyard.

Previously, Fang Bai had been provoked by Hong Qitian at the Martial Artists Trading Market. Although Hong Qitian had admitted defeat and retreated, knowing he could not beat Fang Bai, that didn’t mean Fang Bai would let the matter go.

Taking advantage of the moment to deal with Zu Yu, Fang Bai planned to also give that old fellow Hong Qitian a hard time.

When he was about a hundred meters away from Hong Qitian’s courtyard, Fang Bai stopped, spread his palms, and with a gesture grabbing at the void above the ground, a "whoosh" sounded as two three-foot-thick stone slabs flew up from the ground, supported in his hands.

"Go!"

With that command, Fang Bai leapt into the air, and as he shouted lightly, he hurled the thick stone slabs forward, one after the other, slamming them viciously towards the main hall where Hong Qitian resided.

The two stone slabs, infused with True Essence Force, flew like cannonballs, accompanied by astonishing power, breaking through the air at an incredible speed, and smashing towards the main hall of Hong Qitian’s residence with a whistling sound.

As he released the two stone slabs, Fang Bai turned and dashed towards his own residence, his figure slicing through the rain like a sharp arrow, instantly covering several hundred meters.

Fang Bai knew the two stone slabs he had thrown would disturb many of the Purple Flame Sect’s higher-ups and cause quite a bit of trouble for Hong Qitian.

"Who is it?"

Hong Qitian, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the Pill Furnace refining elixirs, suddenly sensed two risky forces rapidly approaching. His eyes widened, his figure transformed into a shadow, and he rushed out to the exterior courtyard. Looking up, he saw two dark shadows, separated by several yards, breaking through the rain and over the tall courtyard walls, hurtling towards his main hall.

Hong Qitian’s eyes were fierce, recognizing the two black shadows as stone slabs, and from the True Essence Force contained within them, he could tell the martial artist who threw them was not weaker than himself.

Such a powerful intruder breaking into the core area of the Purple Flame Sect was unprecedented in recent years, and the assailant had even launched an attack on him. This unknown motive made Hong Qitian’s complexion darken and his heart beat frantically. He immediately puffed his cheeks and issued a long howl, calling for nearby Purple Flame Sect experts to come to his support.

Meanwhile, the Fire Primordial Qi within Hong Qitian thrummed wildly, a large quantity of bright-red Fire Primordial Qi swiftly gathering at his fists. His fists seemed to be enveloped in roaring flames, illuminating the night sky for several yards around.

As the torrential rain fell, the moment it neared Hong Qitian’s fists, it was instantaneously evaporated by the high temperature of the Fire Primordial Qi, turning into wisps of white smoke that vanished.

In the main hall behind Hong Qitian, there was a low-grade Spiritual Artifact, an Alchemy Furnace Cauldron, and a large number of elixirs that had already been refined, as well as Spiritual Medicine prepared for further alchemy. If the main hall were to be struck by two slabs infused with True Yuan, it would certainly suffer severe damage, and it would be difficult to say whether the Furnace Cauldron and Cultivation Resources could be preserved.

If such a consequence were to occur, Hong Qitian would certainly be infuriated beyond reason.

Hong Qitian, with his eyes blood-red, prepared to fight with all his might to protect his Furnace Cauldron and Cultivation Resources.

"Break for me!"

Just as the two slabs were about to pass overhead and shatter the main hall behind him, Hong Qitian leapt up two zhang high, and in a loud shout, he threw his fists one after another.

As a Vast Level Expert, he was already capable of condensing Essence Energy outside of his body, allowing him to attack without physical contact, something that a Desolate Level Expert could not do.

The two bursts of Fire Primordial Qi that Hong Qitian unleashed, detached from his fists, also carried formidable energy as they confronted the two thick slabs fiercely dropping from the sky.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The Fire Primordial Qi collided with the two slabs in midair, creating two thunderous noises. Although the roar of storm and the crackling of lightning negated some of the noise, a number of disciples from the Purple Flame Sect were still startled and rushed out to see what was happening.

Including Zu Tiangang, the Sect Master of the Purple Flame Sect, several Vast Level Experts reacted immediately and swept towards Hong Qitian’s residence.

The powerful shockwave produced from the collision of Fire Primordial Qi and the slabs crazily dispersed in all directions, causing even the raging storm to pause for a moment.

The floor slabs of the Purple Flame Sect were made of special stone material, which was inherently robust; these were further infused with Earth Element Qi by Fang Bai, making them doubly solid. Despite Hong Qitian’s all-out effort, he had underestimated the hardness and impact of the two slabs.

The stone slabs thrown with full force by Fang Bai could be compared to the strike of a beginner Cosmic Level Expert. How could Hong Qitian, a middle rank Vast Level Martial Artist, easily withstand them?

The collision between the Fire Primordial Qi and the stone slabs did not result in the crumbled stone outcome Hong Qitian had anticipated. Instead, each slab merely broke into two or three pieces, the remaining force unyieldingly striking Hong Qitian and the main hall behind him.

Hong Qitian grunted dully as if struck by lightning, blood spraying from his mouth as he fell from the sky onto the ground. Were it not for his Essence Energy protection, he might have passed out on the spot.

Although he was seriously injured, he could not stand up immediately and had to sit cross-legged on the ground, swallowing a Healing Pill to recuperate his breath.

However, Hong Qitian was relieved that he did not sense any accompanying dangerous aura, indicating that the strong individual who had thrown the slabs might have already left and had no intention of killing him. Otherwise, he surely would have been in mortal danger.

Several loud noises came from the main hall behind him. Hong Qitian knew that some parts of the hall might have collapsed, and the Furnace Cauldron along with the Cultivation Resources inside would suffer some losses. He couldn’t help but display a painful expression.

After a dozen breaths, several Vast Level Martial Artists from the Purple Flame Sect successively landed in Hong Qitian’s courtyard. Seeing Hong Qitian, who was sitting on the ground recuperating, and the damaged main hall, each one of them was dumbfounded and showed a look of disbelief.

"Elder Hong, what happened?"

Seeing that Hong Qitian had opened his eyes, Zu Tiangang took a deep breath and asked with a gloomy face.
