The Drought Demon, which was in pursuit of Wang Chen, suddenly stood still.

It suddenly raised its arms high, its furry ten fingers clenched into fists, and then slamd them fiercely into the ground.

Boom!

At the mont the formidable beast’s fists hit the ground, an invisible shockwave instantly spread in all directions, sending countless clumps of dirt and gravel flying, creating an apocalyptic scene.

Wang Chen was at the forefront and had no way to avoid it; he could only brandish his blade to protect himself, blocking the stone projectiles flying like cannonballs.

However, in the next mont, the surging flas rushed towards him, engulfing his entire area in an instant!

Anyone who has not personally experienced such a scene cannot truly describe the danger Wang Chen encountered at this mont.

He was surrounded by flas hot enough to lt steel, the ground turned to scorched earth in an instant, and all the air was sucked clean, becoming a living hell.

An ordinary person, even a martial arts expert, would have no chance of survival in such an environnt.

But Wang Chen forcefully activated his Innate True Qi, creating a barrier around his body to stubbornly withstand the onslaught of the flas.

He also withstood the ultimate move from the Drought Demon!

In that mont, ti seed to slow to a crawl until the massive body of the Drought Demon parted the sea of flas and appeared in front of Wang Chen.

This fierce beast, seeing Wang Chen unhard, had a flash of surprise in its eyes.

It imdiately swung its huge paw toward Wang Chen.

Bang!

Wang Chen was sent flying backward, blade and all.

But at that instant, he saw a patch of white fur near the navel on the Drought Demon’s abdon.

Compared to the Drought Demon’s size, the palm-sized patch of white fur seed insignificant, but Wang Chen had not noticed it earlier until the Drought Demon struck with its hand.

His mind raced, and he suddenly threw the blade at the fierce beast.

The blade’s target was precisely that patch of white fur!

The Drought Demon’s reaction was exceedingly quick; as soon as Wang Chen threw the blade, it imdiately sensed it and lowered its body while fiercely slapping at the oncoming weapon.

Smack!

The blade, thrown like a spear by Wang Chen, was slapped away by the Drought Demon, embedding itself several dozen feet away.

However, the beast was not yet aware that its weak spot had been discovered by Wang Chen.

Wang Chen was absolutely certain that the palm-sized patch of white fur was the Drought Demon’s weak spot; otherwise, it wouldn’t have reacted so sensitively to his targeted attack.

Roar~

The Drought Demon was thoroughly enraged, and Wang Chen had not even landed when it roared and charged over.

Perhaps in the eyes of this fierce beast, Wang Chen, upon losing his weapon, seed far less capable, offering a great opportunity for its victory.

Yet, to the Drought Demon’s utter surprise, Wang Chen did not retreat or dodge; instead, he mustered his strength in his legs and shot towards it like an arrow leaving the bowstring.

The distance between them closed rapidly, and the Drought Demon raised its sharp claws again, preparing to deliver a heavy blow to Wang Chen!

At this critical mont, Wang Chen’s speed suddenly increased once more.

Whoosh!

He untied the "belt" wrapped around his waist, instantly straightening it and thrusting it towards the Drought Demon’s weak spot!

This "belt" of Wang Chen’s was actually a special soft sword, confiscated from the treasure trove of a wealthy family in Qing’an County, remarkably tough and exceedingly sharp.

Once infused with Innate True Qi, this soft sword could instantly transform into a Divine Weapon capable of slicing through iron like mud!

Ever since Wang Chen acquired this soft sword, he had kept it as a secret weapon.

Today was the first ti he had deployed it in actual combat!

Just as the Drought Demon swung its sharp claws, it could never have anticipated that Wang Chen would beco one with the sword and slip under its grasp, instantly piercing the soft patch of white fur on its lower abdon.

Splurt!

The sword, infused with Wang Chen’s full strength, drove straight in, penetrating the Drought Demon’s hide and flesh without the slightest resistance, with the tip erging from its lower back.

The massive body of the beast instantly froze, and the previously swung claws paused.

In the next mont, Wang Chen twisted his wrist sharply, making the blade twist within the Drought Demon’s body to carve out a massive blood hole.

He imdiately withdrew the sword and dodged away.

Roar!

The Drought Demon seed to awaken from a dream, involuntarily issuing a painful howl, the claws falling down in haste.

Yet its target had already vanished!

Copious amounts of fresh blood gushed from the wound in the beast’s lower abdon, splattering on the ground with a sizzling white steam.

Enraged to the utmost, it turned to find the culprit responsible for inflicting such severe harm upon it.

What it saw was Wang Chen pulling away from it.

The infuriated Drought Demon lumbered into pursuit, leaving a long trail of blood on the ground.

However, it couldn’t catch up with Wang Chen; instead, Wang Chen led it in circles, losing more and more blood, its speed gradually decreasing.

Typically, for fierce beasts like the Drought Demon, aside from possessing imnse defense and strength, they also have remarkable recovery abilities.

But the wound in its lower abdon, pierced by Wang Chen, showed no signs of healing, blood continuously draining as it ran.

The Drought Demon quickly realized that if this continued, it would inevitably bleed out.

This fierce beast halted its strides, let out a resentful roar at Wang Chen, then bent down to grab a large handful of mud and rock, forcibly stuffing it into the bleeding wound.

The gushing blood imdiately ceased!

It cast a venomous look at Wang Chen, then turned to flee on all fours.

Trying to run?

There’s no way Wang Chen would let this Drought Demon escape, leaving a huge threat to Qing’an County.

He grabbed the blade embedded in the ground and imdiately renewed his pursuit of the Drought Demon.

In just a few brief monts, Wang Chen caught up with the beast and swung his blade at its back with all his might.

Splurt!

One fell swoop, like hacking at a hide.

Though he didn’t manage to break through the Drought Demon’s thick exterior hide, he did slash off several dozen strands of its crimson fur.

Then followed another strike, and another!

Wang Chen ticulously tailed the Drought Demon, continuously grinding down its defenses with his blade.

Whenever the Drought Demon turned to retaliate, Wang Chen imdiately distanced himself, avoiding direct confrontation.

Even though the beast’s strength and speed had significantly dropped.

This unsportsmanlike conduct infuriated the Drought Demon endlessly but left it helpless; it also attempted to unleash its powerful move once more, but Wang Chen, having discerned its tactics, evaded it in advance, resulting in a waste of effort.

Thus, back and forth, they engaged in a chase across the parched earth, tussling and tangling for several hours.

The Drought Demon finally could not hold on, collapsing onto the ground, heavily wounded.

Its massive body lying upon the soil, it weakly closed its eyes, seemingly resigning to its fate.

But Wang Chen was not underestimating it; he rushed forward for another slash, then swiftly retreated to evade.

Relentlessly exacerbating the Drought Demon’s injuries!
