"Unexpectedly, Wu Tianci is hiding so deeply," Ye Tian thought as he looked at the Light Barrier pulsating with dark energy.
"Heh heh, come on! Weren't you just boasting about how you would kill me? Come on!" Seeing Ye Tian being knocked back, Wu Tianci's eyes filled with a frenzied light, as if he had lost all reason and was taunting wildly.
"You might be celebrating too early!" In response to Wu Tianci's provocation, a look of determination flashed across Ye Tian's face, his tightly furrowed brows forming a stubborn arc.
With a change in hand gestures, the Bagua Seal was activated. His figure darted forward, one hand forming a palm while the other executed the Seal Technique, charging once again towards the Black Light Screen.
"Heh heh, let's see how much power you really have!" Wu Tianci sneered, while his body within the Black Light Screen continued to shift in strange steps, as if performing some mysterious ritual.
"Watch out!"
In mid-air, Ye Tian let out a clear shout, first unleashing the Nine Seal Technique, followed by the Thunder Palm.
Boom! Boom!
Two deafening sounds echoed as the Seal Technique broke through first. The Black Light Screen trembled under that formidable force, and almost simultaneously, the Bagua Thunder Palm, infused with the might of thunder, struck again. Amidst the wildly flickering light of pale blue electricity, the Black Light Screen was finally torn open with a crack.
Of course, the immense recoil also surged into Ye Tian's body. He was sent flying back again, rapidly flipping in mid-air. His feet executed the Spirit Swallow continuously transforming; having learned from past experiences, he did not crash to the ground as awkwardly as before.
"Heh heh, not bad. But this is just the beginning," Wu Tianci's hoarse chuckle rang out, sending chills down one's spine.
"The combination of Nine Seal Technique and Thunder Palm can barely create a crack. Am I going to have to use the Bagua Thunder Seal early..." Ye Tian's expression grew extremely serious. For him, the power of combining the Palm Seal and the Thunder Palm should definitely yield greater results than expected. However, seeing no significant effect meant that he might have to bring out his strongest move, the Bagua Thunder Seal, sooner than planned.
As Ye Tian contemplated this, Wu Tianci within the Black Light Screen seemed to have brought some strange ritual to its climax. The Giant Eye before him had inexplicably shifted direction and was now staring directly at him, a faint red light continuously swirling within it, projecting into Wu Tianci's eyes. As the red light entered, the fervor on his face intensified.
"What on earth is this..." Ye Tian gazed at the enigmatic scene, feeling a vague premonition that he was about to witness something that would overturn his understanding of martial arts.
"Hahahaha, hahahahaha!"
With the red light pouring in, Wu Tianci's eyes grew increasingly blood-red, to the point where there was no other color visible in those eyes.
The entire eye was devoid of pupils or irises; all that remained was a sea of blood-red.
"Black Fiend! Oh, Black Fiend with boundless power! Awaken!"
After laughing maniacally for a while, Wu Tianci suddenly began to chant towards the sky, as if he were summoning some primeval and mysterious force.
"Could it be..." Ye Tian's heart suddenly shuddered. The sight before him reminded him of a term: Blood Exchange and Marrow Transformation Classic...
Although he had previously seen the Evil Scriptures and Blood Exchange and Marrow Transformation Classic on those black-clad figures, the blood within them was merely that of lowly animals. But the Wu Tianci before him, who had seemingly lost all human characteristics, was different. The power he exhibited made Ye Tian feel that this was the true Blood Exchange and Marrow Transformation Classic!
"Hiss, if you cannot stop me before the Black Yuan Barrier disappears, then you will never have another chance!" At this moment, Wu Tianci's voice sounded like that of a being from hell, filled with an eerie and violent sensation. Yet even in this inhuman tone, there was still an unmistakable hint of contempt.
"Black Yuan Barrier? This being?" Upon hearing these two phrases, Ye Tian's heart jolted with shock. It seemed that the Black Light Screen was indeed what Wu Tianci referred to as the Black Yuan Barrier. Judging by its name, its purpose should be to protect Wu Tianci as he activated the Blood Exchange and Marrow Transformation Classic. The emergence of "this being" indicated that Wu Tianci had completed the summoning of some mysterious power within him...
Roar!
Suddenly, accompanied by a roar that seemed to come from hell itself, the Black Light Screen that had been protecting Wu Tianci shattered abruptly.
Hiss... Hiss...
Immediately, the roar transformed into a mournful wail. The Giant Eye on the Black Disc was slowly protruding outward, accompanied by a sound reminiscent of flesh being torn apart. Along with the chilling cries, an arm-like entity began to stretch out from the surface of the disc...
Hoo...
Ye Tian gasped in shock; the scene before him was far too bizarre, and it seemed to be more than just the Blood Exchange and Marrow Transformation Classic. Wu Tianci's actions resembled a summoning of a demon from an unknown realm.
Hiss... Hiss...
The wailing continued to echo hauntingly along the riverbank, startling birds in the distant forest. Amidst this piercingly strange sound, another arm emerged from the disc.
Then came a massive and ferocious head, a skeletal chest, and a long bony tail...
Hiss!
With an exceptionally dreadful scream, the creature finally struggled free from the disc. Its enormous body reached five zhang in height, enveloped in a layer of ominous black. Each movement caused its exposed bones to rub against each other, producing a jarring clatter that sent chills down one's spine. Its blood-red eyes hung ominously in their hollow sockets, casting a terrifying glare toward Ye Tian.
"Hehehe, the Black Fiend Incarnation awakens. You dog, your time of death has come!"
From behind the Black Fiend, Wu Tianci's voice emerged slowly, equally chilling. His once normal face now appeared as shriveled as a dried corpse, as if all his blood had been drained away.
"Wu Tianci, are you not afraid of backlash?" Ye Tian discerned the underlying danger; this Black Fiend was definitely different from the Blood Exchange and Marrow Transformation Classic and was likely an aberrant Evil Scripture evolved from it. Wu Tianci was using his own blood essence to summon it; if he made even a slight mistake, not only would he fail to gain any benefit, but he might also suffer from severe backlash.
"Backlash?" Wu Tianci scoffed disdainfully, his voice rising high as his head twisted uncontrollably with a cracking sound. As Wu Tianci moved, the Black Fiend mirrored his actions.
"I am the Black Fiend; as the Black Fiend is me, how could there be any talk of backlash?" As he spoke these words, a layer of black mist gradually enveloped Wu Tianci. The mist twisted and turned like several venomous snakes, all slithering toward the openings of his face.
"Uh... uh... ah!!"
As the black mist continued to invade Wu Tianci's orifices, he began to emit a horrifying scream. His entire body started to swell, and in just a moment, he had already reached the same height as the Black Fiend.
"Could there be something more bizarre?" Ye Tian's expression grew serious as he closely observed this strange scene before him, feeling a vague sense that even more unbelievable events were about to unfold.
"Black Fiend Incarnation, it's been a long time since we were separated..."
It was unclear whether it was Wu Tianci or the Black Fiend speaking, but this time the voice was deep and oppressive, lacking the previous sharpness, instead carrying an excited anticipation.
Crack crack crack...
The bones emitted a sharp grinding sound once again, and then, to Ye Tian's disbelief, Wu Tianci's body, which had swelled to fifty feet tall, slowly began to merge with the bare bones of the Black Fiend.
"Roar roar roar roar roar, roar roar roar roar roar..."
The low growls continued to echo, filled with an uncontrollable excitement that made Ye Tian think of the awakening of a malevolent demon.
"Black Fiend Incarnation!"
With one final excited roar, Wu Tianci finally fused completely with the darkness. New flesh rapidly grew over the originally exposed bones; however, what was shocking was that...
There was not a trace of skin on that bloody flesh.
"Insignificant and fragile humans? Do you still wish to oppose me?"
The Black Fiend leaned forward, a contemptuous light flickering in its blood-red eyes, enveloping Ye Tian within its gaze.
"Wu Tianci!" Ye Tian fearlessly met the gaze of the seemingly otherworldly demon, calling out its true name.
"Wu Tianci? That is my soul's name, one you dare to utter!" The Black Fiend roared in anger, its massive hand, accompanied by a heavy stench of blood, suddenly struck towards Ye Tian's head.
With a leap, Ye Tian skillfully dodged the attack.
Boom!
The tremendous force struck the sandy ground, sending shockwaves that surged outward. Within a radius of five meters, a powerful force erupted, instantly raising several sand pillars over three meters high. Fine sand filled the sky, plunging the surroundings into a haze of gray.
"What immense power!" Ye Tian marveled inwardly. The Black Fiend's abilities were beyond his estimation; just this one strike possessed the might of Earth Level One Martial Arts.
After the loud crash, silence seemed to fall. Amidst the swirling dust, only darkness remained, along with an oppressive stillness.
Ye Tian furrowed his brow, his dark eyes shining brightly as he cautiously scanned his surroundings. At the slightest movement, he would unleash the faint blue Thunder Light in his hand without hesitation.
