This time, Qin Long didn’t chase after Bai Yunfei to attack. He stopped there to assess his right arm with his unfocused eyes. Uncertainty flashed across his face for a second.

Blood was still spilling out from his mouth, his right arm was bent at a strange angle, and his wrist had a piece of bone jutting out from it. All in all, he looked like he was in a horrifying state.

—That attack had shown him he wasn’t a match for Bai Yunfei anymore!

“Crack…crack…”

He stared for several seconds at his arm before it started to wriggle and crack. The broken bones retreated back underneath the skin and the flesh began to knit together just like all the other times before!

“So…this still isn’t enough, eh?”

Bai Yunfei mentally clicked his tongue in vexation at the sight of Qin Long’s injuries healing. “Then let’s see if he can recover from being blown apart!”

He pumped his fist victoriously. The enemy was no longer strong enough to threaten him in any way. It was only a matter of time before his enemy would lose to him.

His strength was practically endless. He didn’t even feel fatigued after fighting for so long. In fact, he was feeling more and more refreshed by the second!

And his strength was currently comparable to when he used the ‘Coil’ Form to fight!

Upgrade Requirement: 160 Soulpoints

Because of the +12 additional effect of the Ardent Sun Glove, Bai Yunfei was able to grow stronger while Qin Long was getting weaker!

Normally, this effect didn’t mean much in a battle where Bai Yunfei would only make contact with the enemy twice or thrice at most. Close-combat battles were rare, so the Ardent Sun Glove rarely had any effect. Not even the Eighty-one Fold Fist Force would help the effect do much against a Soul Emperor other than shave away a small portion of their energy.

Right now, Bai Yunfei’s speed, strength, dexterity, stamina, and spirit were all 25000 points above normal. That was nearly thirty thousand with his armor included.

Given the properties of the Eighty-one Fold Fist Force, Bai Yunfei could steal 810 points worth of attributes from his enemies every time he struck them with it. For a Soul Emperor, 810 points wasn’t much.

But this was Qin Long he was fighting!

One Eighty-one Fold Fist Force wasn’t much to do anything, but five of them…could definitely have some effect.

……

“It’s about time to…end this once in all!”

Bai Yunfei had been on the receiving end at the beginning of the battle. His right hand had been constantly thrown through the wringer each time he was hit by Qin Long. But thanks to the Ardent Sun Glove, Bai Yunfei could recover from his wounds faster and without delay.

He could feel his body regenerate faster than before after stealing Qin Long’s attributes!

This kind of tactic wouldn’t work on the average person. Anyone capable of thinking would know immediately that something was wrong and change to a long-ranged approach. But since Qin Long had lost his sanity, he wasn’t sure of what was going on and so Bai Yunfei could steal his attributes in peace.

Right now, Bai Yunfei could probably fight off a Mid-stage Soul Emperor without much trouble.

And inversely, Qin Long was fighting with about half his usual strength.

“Roar!!”

While Bai Yunfei was considering how to end the battle, Qin Long was already charging at him again!

“For all that power, he doesn’t have the brains to match it. He’s basically just a mindless beast, what a shame…”

Bai Yunfei shook his head with a sigh. Clenching his right fist, he leaped at Qin Long and threw a heavy right punch at Qin Long’s face!

“Bang!! Crack!!”

The two collided and separated once more, but there was a difference this time. One person flew across only fifty meters before steadying himself—it was Bai Yunfei!

Qin Long, on the other hand, had his entire right arm shattered. Blood flowed in heavy amounts down from his arm and bone fragments flew everywhere. Not even his shoulder was in tact.

But it didn’t take long before his wounds began to heal. As fast as the eye could process, the wounds knitted together to restore his arm back to its pristine state.

Bai Yunfei wasn’t going to give Qin Long the opportunity to enjoy his regeneration without worry of being attacked, this time. There was a flash of red light in front of Qin Long as Bai Yunfei appeared right in front of him!

“Hah!!”

Shouting loudly, Bai Yunfei lashed out with his…left fist!

The Critical Glove shined spectacularly as it shot toward Qin Long’s face.

“Roar!!”

As if realizing the plight he was in, Qin Long let out a malevolent roar before twisting his waist to the side to lash out with his left hand!

“Bang!! Crack!!”

This time, the force of their collision was even harsher than the last!

Blood splattered everywhere including…bone and flesh!

Bai Yunfei wasn’t sent flying back this time. It was Qin Long that was like a broken kite and spilled blood and flesh everywhere as he flew…

Blood erupted like a fountain from his left shoulder—or what remained of it!

The +10 and +12 additional effect of the Critical Glove activated when Bai Yunfei attacked. The combined power of his attack and his new stats allowed him to unleash an attack powerful enough to completely destroy Qin Long’s left shoulder!

“Roar!!!”

Another roar erupted from Qin Long’s mouth, but this time he sounded like he was deep in pain. An eerie-red light began to shine from his left shoulder before the blood stopped dripping from it. But the way the flesh around his shoulder stump wriggled made it look like…it was trying to grow an arm?!

“Still trying to fight back?! Give up!!”

Still a little shocked at the sight, Bai Yunfei let out a loud shout before flying straight for him!

A flash of red light appeared around Bai Yunfei’s hand as the Fire-tipped Spear appeared. Latching onto it, he thrusted the tip of the spear toward Qin Long’s throat!
