Invincibility starts when I see the BOSS health bar.

Chapter 966 Reopens
Seemingly sensing Elder Yan Jin's silent struggle and predicament, Fang Yu in the pit suddenly turned his head, grinned in the direction of Elder Yan Jin, and revealed a smile that was stained with blood but was unusually clear.

There was no blame or plea for help in that smile; instead, it carried an almost cruel calm. He didn't speak, but the smile itself seemed to convey something.

The next moment, Fang Yu moved!

Boom! !
The ground beneath their feet exploded again, sending debris flying everywhere!
He transformed into a blur of bones and blood, charging toward the Guardian Elder on the roof with an even more resolute and ferocious attitude than before!

In Fang Yu's eyes, Elder Yan Jin's predicament was actually simple and clear - if you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who created the problem!
All we need to do is kill this Elder Huxin, clean up the scene, and let Elder Yan Jin stay out of it, pretending he knows nothing about it.

The core objectives are nothing more than two things: to silence them and to keep Elder Yan Jin away from the eye of the storm!
This deadly battle must be ended by him!

"So brave!!"

The Elder's roar was like a thunderclap, filled with furious rage and murderous intent at being offended. His already ferocious face was now twisted and terrifying, his muscles bulging and veins standing out. Before he finished speaking, the massive tail behind him, as thick as a steel whip, tore through the air, whipping out with a suffocating, bloody gust!
Whoosh—!!!!
The giant tail tore through the air at incredible speed! The air was instantly compressed and torn apart, producing a sharp, ear-piercing sonic boom that almost punctured eardrums! It was as if an invisible blade of air was following closely behind.

So fast? !
Fang Yu, who was charging straight at him, suddenly had his pupils contract!

A deadly chill instantly gripped his heart.

The giant tail was moving much faster than he had anticipated!

At the critical moment, relying on the instincts honed through countless life-and-death battles, he forcefully twisted his body to the limit, dodging to the side at an almost impossible angle!
Sizzle—!!!
A sharp cracking sound was heard!
The tip of the giant tail, carrying terrifying kinetic energy, narrowly grazed Fang Yu's side.

The skeleton armor covering it shattered and broke apart like fragile glass, turning into flying bone fragments!
The next instant, the flesh on his side was exposed, a layer of it was scraped off, blood was everywhere, and the bone was visible!
hiss!
A piercing pain accompanied by a tremendous impact caused Fang Yu to groan and freeze for a moment.

Even this mere glancing blow contained terrifying power that made his blood surge and his bones feel like they were about to crack!
This is no ordinary move; it must be some kind of innate killing move that this old monster possessed after his demonic transformation!
However, when Fang Yu raised his eyes and his cold gaze locked onto the Guardian Elder who was standing close by, the broken edge of the withered bone armor at the hideous wound on his side began to writhe and extend rapidly as if it were alive.

As the bones mingled and flesh grew back, the damaged armor was repaired almost instantly, covering the wound once more and leaving only faint traces of blood.

Fang Yu's lips curled into a cold smile.

Admittedly, his Yuan Demon Body Armor was somewhat inadequate in defending against the terrifying power of Elder Huxin, a monster at the Sixth Soul Realm, and even seemed to be reaching its limit.

But this is by no means because the Yuan Demon Body is weak!

If the opponent is a strong person of the same realm, the defense of this skeleton armor is like an impenetrable wall, and it can even crush the opponent.

Facing a Six-Soul Old Demon who had transcended realms, Fang Yu was extremely satisfied that the Yuan Demon Body could protect him from fatal damage under such a violent attack and possess such an astonishing recovery speed.

"Bad boy!!"

His well-prepared attack failed to achieve its intended purpose, and Elder Huxin's eyes were filled with a mixture of shock and anger. However, being a veteran of countless battles, he did not lose his composure.

Seeing Fang Yu advance instead of retreating, closing in on him, he reacted with lightning speed! The heavy black iron fan in his hand transformed into a streak of black light, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound that tore through the air, aiming straight for Fang Yu's throat!

The advantages brought by the demonized giant tail were on full display at this moment—it could launch a thunderous attack independently without affecting the main body's ability to unleash other killing moves!
The giant tail and the iron fan, one at a distance and the other at close range, one fierce and the other cunning, worked together seamlessly, as if the two were attacking from both sides at the same time!
Ordinary martial artists would be overwhelmed by this barrage of attacks, suffering broken bones and brittle muscles!

however……

Bang! ! !
Just as the iron fan was about to touch his skin, a thick cloud of blood mist suddenly exploded around Fang Yu!
The blood mist seemed to contain some strange power, causing his speed to surge to an incredible level in an instant!
The tiny distance that had existed between the two was completely erased the moment the blood mist exploded!

what? !

Elder Huxin's expression changed drastically! This sudden, unexpected acceleration was completely beyond his expectations!
Even his usually reliable reaction speed was a beat slow!

The iron fan, seemingly determined to win, grazed Fang Yu's afterimage and slammed into empty air, its sharp force carving a deep trench in the ground!
In that split second, Fang Yu's large hand, covered with withered bones, slammed into Elder Huxin's chest like a meteorite, carrying immense power!

A shadow of death instantly loomed over my heart!

Elder Huxin's mind involuntarily flashed back to the terrifying black tree phantom that had blotted out the sky and exuded endless devouring power. An instinctive fear arose uncontrollably!

"Thousands of thunders shake the heart!!"

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle——!!!
Elder Huxin's eyes widened in fury as he let out a hysterical roar!

The single, menacing horn on his forehead suddenly emitted a blinding blue-white light!
The raging electric current, like a flood bursting its banks, erupted and spread instantly from the unicorn at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye!
Countless thick lightning bolts surged wildly, instantly covering his entire body and emitting deafening thunder!

He seemed to have transformed into a thunder god, his body shimmering with dazzling lightning, and violent electric currents coursing and coiling across his body like living things, forming a layer of lightning armor that combined offense and defense!

This is his trump card technique, which he can only unleash in his demonic form!

This move is incredibly profound, combining offense and defense. Wherever the mind goes, lightning strikes, and its speed is unparalleled!

However, its power also comes at a huge price—this terrifying lightning power did not come out of thin air, but was the result of his long years of painstaking accumulation within his body!
The number of times it can be used in a single battle is extremely limited, and after each use, a long period of rest is required for the reserves to slowly recover.

If Fang Yu's strange blood mist hadn't accelerated so quickly that he hadn't been caught off guard, he would never have used such a trump card so easily!

Amidst the blinding lightning and the roaring electricity, Fang Yu remained calm and composed, his eyes showing no sign of wavering.
That giant, withered bone hand, with unwavering determination, ignored the terrifying lightning that could melt refined iron and slammed it hard into Elder Huxin's chest, which was covered in lightning!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle——!!!
The violent electric current seemed to have found an outlet, running wildly along Fang Yu's arm and burrowing into his body like thousands of venomous snakes!
Fang Yu had already gritted his teeth, prepared to endure excruciating pain and even paralysis on one side of his body, intending to tough it out and trade his injuries for his own!
Ok?
The devastating lightning strike that was expected to tear apart meridians and burn flesh did not occur!
When the violent electric current struck the skeletal armor of his demonic body covering his body, it seemed to encounter a tough and strange filter layer.

Although he could still feel a strong numbness and burning pain, and some of the current even penetrated his defenses and caused damage to his body, the damage was... far less than he had expected!
It was completely within the limits of his powerful physique and the Yuan Demon Body itself!

Sure enough! As long as the Yuan Demon Body Armor isn't completely destroyed, it can significantly weaken or even become immune to most forms of energy attacks! This discovery greatly reassured Fang Yu. "How is this possible?!"

Elder Huxin could no longer hide his shock; his eyes almost popped out of their sockets!

His trump card lightning technique, capable of instantly injuring or even killing a powerhouse of the same level, only caused this negligible flesh wound to his opponent?!
This completely subverted his cognition!

In that one ten-thousandth of a moment when his mind was shaken...

boom--! ! ! !

Fang Yu's palm strike did not falter in the slightest due to the electric shock!
That overwhelming and terrifying power erupted like a long-accumulated volcano!
A powerful and fierce inner force, containing a scorching aura, pierced deeply into Elder Huxin's chest like a red-hot branding iron!

"Ugh!" Elder Huxin groaned, feeling a surge of intense, violent power explode within his body. Although it did not cause immediate devastation, it was as if an extremely unstable seed of explosion had been planted, causing alarm bells to rang in his heart!
What's even more terrifying is the sheer physical impact!

He was as if he had been hit by a high-speed moving mountain, his feet left the ground, and he was sent flying backward like a cannonball!

Boom——! ! !
The two crashed through the thick wall of the dye house, carrying countless brick and wood chips, and smashed into a house in the distance!
Smoke and dust filled the air, and rubble flew everywhere!
The moment he landed, a fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the Guardian Elder! The giant tail that had pierced through Fang Yu's chest suddenly twisted!
At the same time, lightning crackled again on his forehead as he gathered his last bit of power!

Fang Yu seemed to have completely given up on dodging this potentially fatal blow!
All he could see was Elder Huxin's head, covered in scales and horns!

Two massive, withered skeletal hands, carrying a resolute determination to destroy everything, tore through the air and slammed down!
Pfft——! ! !
The cold, barbed tip of the giant tail pierced through Fang Yu's chest without any resistance!
It pierced his heart with pinpoint accuracy!

Blood gushed out like a fountain from the two huge wounds in the front and back!

"die--!!!"

Elder Huxin's face revealed a savage grin, a mixture of wild joy and cruelty, as if victory was already within reach!

However, his maniacal laughter came to an abrupt halt as his vision was completely obscured by Fang Yu's two massive hands slamming down on his head!

A sense of impending death, more intense, purer, and more soul-chilling than when he faced the Black Tree, instantly washed over his entire body like ice water, making every cell in his body scream!
Oh no!! What is he going to do?! This isn't the same trick as before... this is... something even more terrifying!!!

Elder Huxin roared wildly in his heart, gripped by immense fear!
"flowering."

Fang Yu's icy voice, like the whisper of death, gently rang in Elder Huxin's ear.

BOOM—! BOOM! BOOM!

It was as if an invisible giant hammer, carrying the power to annihilate souls, slammed down hard on Elder Huxin's forehead!

It had no physical impact, yet it penetrated straight to the depths of the soul!
Elder Huxin felt as if his head, his consciousness, and his thoughts were instantly pierced and shattered by an irresistible force!
My mind went blank; all thoughts, all perceptions, all strength vanished with that whisper!

His eyes instantly lost focus, and his body became like a puppet with its strings cut.

In the next instant, an eerie and enormous flower of energy, woven from pure black and viscous dark red, suddenly burst forth and bloomed, with the head of the Guardian Elder as its foundation!
Layer upon layer of petals, filled with the aura of death and decay, completely enveloped and devoured his head!
puff.

Elder Huxin's knees buckled, and he lost all consciousness. Like the most devout believer, or like a spineless corpse, he knelt stiffly and lifelessly before Fang Yu!

If Elder Yan Jin, who was far away, were to witness this scene, he would probably be so horrified that his soul would be scattered!
The strength and unpredictable methods Fang Yu is displaying at this moment have far exceeded his initial expectations!

After blooming to its most dazzling peak, the eerie black and red flower began to wither and fade at a visible speed.

The terrifying control that froze the soul and stripped away consciousness also rapidly subsided. All of this, from beginning to end, happened in the blink of an eye, equivalent to one or two heartbeats for an ordinary person.

As consciousness surged back into Elder Huxin's mind like a receding tide, and as his thoughts, frozen by the Flower of Death, began to function again, what entered his blurred vision was Fang Yu's face, stained with blood yet as cold as ancient ice, and the other's slowly raised hand, shrouded in ominous black energy.

"Open the tree."

Fang Yu's voice was more piercing than the cold wind of the Netherworld.

BOOM—! BOOM! BOOM!

No—!!! Wait!! Stop it—!!!

Elder Huxin's heart was roaring wildly and screaming in despair!

He had just escaped the clutches of death, and his body was still extremely stiff and weak, so he had no time to make any effective defense or dodge!
A terrifying scene unfolded once again! Countless thick, twisted, and pitch-black branches, exuding a dense aura of death, grew wildly and savagely from within and on the surface of Elder Huxin's body, using it as a seedbed!

In an instant, he was entangled, bound, and suspended high in the air!

On that dark tree trunk, it seemed as if countless painful faces were silently wailing!
It's that trick again! It's that trick again! It's that trick again—!!!
Elder Huxin's heart was completely consumed by boundless rage and an indescribable fear!

He used every trick in the book, even his trump card, the "Ten Thousand Thunder Heart-Shaking Technique," yet he was still forced into such a wretched situation!

What alarmed him even more was that the opponent's strange, withered bone armor seemed to be subtly suppressing his demonized power!
Below, Fang Yu clutched the horrifying, piercing wound on his chest, blood still seeping out and staining the rubble beneath his feet. He coldly gazed up at the Guardian Elder, suspended high in the air like prey awaiting slaughter, his eyes filled with no pity, only icy killing intent.

"Break for me...!!!"
