Chapter 260: Empress of the Blood Chain Flower (Part IV)

Bang, bang, bang...

Chen Ligang crashed through several walls in succession before he could barely steady his figure; his left arm was already gone, leaving only a smooth cut and flowing blood.

Yet his face was full of excitement, as if he had encountered a satisfying opponent.

Directly ahead, the Blood Chain Flower Empress, surrounded by Urban Flower Demons, gnawed on his arm, then slowly walked to her chair and sat down, watching Chen Ligang's disheveled appearance.

"It seems I truly underestimated you." Chen Ligang loosened his muscles and bones, then let out a huff, and a brand-new left arm grew out from the cut, while his figure became slightly thinner.

"A Face-Abyss Dweller?" the Blood Chain Flower Empress said in surprise, "It has been a long time since I've seen a Face-Abyss Dweller. Since coming here, you are the first one I have met."

Chen Ligang swung his Meteor Hammer, approaching while saying in wonder: "You can actually talk! And you are so familiar with my Transcendental Profession!?"

"Hehehe~ the dead don't need so many explanations." The Blood Chain Flower Empress raised her hand to create a lotus-like circular saw, then threw it at Chen Ligang.

Chen Ligang dropped into a horse stance, then the two hammer heads of the Meteor Hammer smashed into each other, and a phantom covered in slime with a snake head but a doll-face shell rushed out.

Just as the phantom was about to collide with the lotus, the Blood Chain Flower Empress raised her hand and gripped, and the lotus disintegrated into a dozen circular saws that bypassed the phantom and flew toward Chen Ligang.

The phantom flew straight toward the Blood Chain Flower Empress, but was neutralized by the surrounding Urban Flower Demons using their skills.

Chen Ligang rapidly danced the Meteor Hammer, blocked all attacks, and then threw out one of the hammer heads; the iron chain connecting the hammer head continued to extend along with the thrown hammer, crossing countless ruins as if there were no end.

The flying hammer head opened up like flower petals, revealing sharp, neat teeth inside, with a slender tongue growing in the center, flying toward the opponent like a bloody maw.

The Blood Chain Flower Empress sat upright on her chair, one hand swiping through the void, and instantly the eyes of all the Urban Flower Demons turned crimson, and they rushed to block in front of their empress, jointly urging the Magic Power within their bodies.

Rumble~

Thick vines grew wildly among the high-rise buildings, intertwining and hardening in an instant to form a solid wall, blocking the Meteor Hammer's attack.

The Meteor Hammer, with its bloody maw wide open, bit into the wall, and Chen Ligang gave a hard tug, pulling back the Meteor Hammer while also tearing off a clump of bark.

Afterward, Chen Ligang quietly used a dagger to cut off a piece of his own flesh and set up a stance on the spot. The severed piece of flesh slowly squirmed and crawled toward the Blood Chain Flower Empress.

Then, a large number of holes opened in the wall, and Urban Flower Demons flew out one by one; Chen Ligang could only keep swinging the Meteor Hammer to kill the approaching Flower Demons.

But not a single Flower Demon noticed the piece of squirming flesh on the ground, which was accelerating as it crawled toward their empress.

As for the Blood Chain Flower Empress, she remained seated in place, watching the newly gestated flowers in the room, and threw the arm she had left over to them.

The arm slammed into the wall of the room, but it made no sound and did not bounce onto the floor; instead, it was firmly nailed to the wall, withering bit by bit.

The Blood Chain Flower Empress withdrew her gaze, preparing to read the vision of an Urban Flower Demon. However, at this moment, she saw a piece of flesh enter the room she was in, though she did not know when.

The next second, this piece of flesh suddenly expanded and grew larger, turning into Chen Ligang's appearance, or rather, he had entered her room through this piece of flesh.

The Blood Chain Flower Empress had no choice but to stand up and fight him, while her fingernails grew over ten centimeters long, engaging in a life-and-death struggle with Chen Ligang.

The Urban Flower Demons wanted to return to support their empress, but Chen Ligang, while battling the Blood Chain Flower Empress, controlled the Five-Star Sword to use the Clone, Scorch, and Float abilities, greatly delaying the Urban Flower Demons' reinforcements.

During this period, the two sides exchanged dozens of rounds; if there were no high-speed camera, it would be impossible to record each other's moves.

At this moment, the Blood Chain Flower Empress seized the opportunity of Chen Ligang turning to gather strength and smashed his head to pieces, after which she quickly retreated and assumed a defensive posture.

"First Form of the Treacherous Evil Yin Violence!"

The headless Chen Ligang shouted the skill name and rapidly rotated his body, Magic Power swirling quickly around his body to form a tornado that sucked the Blood Chain Flower Empress inside.

"Pupa Garment!"

As Chen Ligang shouted the full skill name, the tornado disappeared and formed a thin layer of gel on the Blood Chain Flower Empress, trapping her firmly in place.

Afterward, Chen Ligang consumed fat to grow a head, and at the same time, slapped the Blood Chain Flower Empress away with a hammer, directly smashing through a high-rise building.

The Blood Chain Flower Empress wanted to retaliate, but she saw Zhu Zhiquan in the distance running toward this side, holding a staff in one hand and pressing the Five-Star Sword at his waist with the other.

This was trouble; one was one of the hardest Transcendental Professions for humans to kill, and the other carried the aura of hell, which was nine times out of ten a profession specifically meant to counter her. Any fool would know how to choose, and as an empress, she naturally knew what to do.

The Blood Chain Flower Empress instantly gave up on counterattacking; her figure flashed, and she actually turned into a cloud of blood mist, darting one hundred meters toward the side and rear before turning back into her original form and fleeing rapidly.

"Hey! Stop!" Chen Ligang summoned the Five-Star Sword and traveled through the ruins of the high-rise buildings again, determined to kill the Blood Chain Flower Empress here.

Behind him followed a large group of Urban Flower Demons, attempting to protect their empress, but even when Zhu Zhiquan stepped on the Five-Star Sword to overtake them and launched Hell Lament, they were unable to keep up with the empress's pace.

The Blood Chain Flower Empress in the lead looked at the two people chasing relentlessly behind her, feeling overwhelmed for a moment, but in order to survive, she had to try to lead them near a sleeping Odoba Demon Tree.

"Stop! You stop! Don't run!" Chen Ligang ran while staying alert to his surroundings; this time he would not fall into a trap so easily.

However, he was very puzzled; this empress was fighting him just fine, so why did she suddenly start running away? Could it be that this kind of monster was a glass cannon? But she was running way too fast!

To save stamina, he had to sacrifice a bit of speed and Magic Power to let the Five-Star Sword carry him for a flight.

At this moment, the Blood Chain Flower Empress dropped a flower seed, which landed exactly on the shoulder of an Odoba Demon Tree.

Boom!

An explosion sounded, and the Blood Chain Flower Empress instantly rushed into a ruin, just avoiding the Odoba Demon Tree's line of sight, but at the same time, it just happened to let it see Chen Ligang and the distant Zhu Zhiquan.

"Huff, huff~ Damn it! Huff~ This... this old fox!" Chen Ligang stepped on the Five-Star Sword, looking at the slowly rising Odoba Demon Tree, and couldn't help but curse.

Zhu Zhiquan, who had just switched to running on foot behind him, sent a private message to Zhao Yuxin while running, and at the same time urged the Jingtian Pozhen Gun to lengthen for a pole vault, then closed his panel in mid-air to deliver a blow to the head of the Odoba Demon Tree.

Crackle, crackle~

"Ooh~"

This blow happened to trigger the Thunder Dragon assist of the Jingtian Pozhen Gun; as the tip of the staff landed on the trunk of the Odoba Demon Tree, the Thunder Dragon also landed on it, carbonizing a small area on the spot.

Only then did Chen Ligang notice Zhu Zhiquan, and he immediately understood why the Blood Chain Flower Empress had wanted to run away before; it turned out she didn't want to face both of them at the same time.

"Roar!"

Facing the two humans who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, the Odoba Demon Tree roared and counterattacked toward Zhu Zhiquan.

And Zhu Zhiquan, having succeeded with one strike, quickly retracted the Jingtian Pozhen Gun, immediately jumped off the high-rise building, stepped on the Five-Star Sword, and jumped into another building, also just happening to dodge the Odoba Demon Tree's attack.
