The blue giant had a cat-and-mouse smile on his lips, his eyes half-closed.
Xiaoman was in a very sorry state. She tried various movement techniques, but she could not get rid of the water droplets.
"What on earth is this thing?" Countless ideas flashed through his mind, but he rejected them all. He quickly looked around and found a small hill on the right slope. He sped up and rushed over.
At the very last second, use a sliding tackle.
Just as the water droplet was about to change direction, it crashed directly into the hill and exploded with a bang.
The aftershocks raged, and Xiaoman tried her best to defend herself, but her body was uncontrollably forced to retreat rapidly.
Two scratches, several tens of centimeters deep, were left on the ground.
"Tsk tsk, so weak." The blue giant still had a smile on his lips, but his eyes flashed with disdain. He raised his finger and tapped lightly.
A water jet shot towards Xiaoman.
It came too fast; not to mention defending against it, even dodging it was a stretch.
He twisted his body rapidly, narrowly avoiding the attack.
"This is getting more and more interesting." The blue giant's lips twitched, and he held up two fingers. "Rat, whatever you do, don't die."
The two water jets were faster than the previous ones.
Swoosh! Boom!
He blocked one with all his might, but the other struck the Fish Intestine Sword hard, sending it flying backward.
Xiaoman fell heavily to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.
Blood flowed down his arm onto the Fish Intestine Sword, and a bizarre scene unfolded: it was actually absorbing the blood.
As more and more blood flowed, the entire sword was stained red with blood, making it look extremely eerie.
Buzz!
The strange sound was terrifying. The blue giant frowned and rushed over.
The aura emanating from the Fish Intestine Sword was even more terrifying than before, making people want to flee.
"Old buddy, what is this?" Xiaoman struggled to sit up and tried to throw it away, but it was like 504 glue, no matter how she shook it, she couldn't get rid of it.
*Swoosh! Clang!*
A crimson sword beam slashed outwards.
The blue giant was horrified to discover that his body had been split in two and could not be restored.
"this?"
Terrified, he grabbed the other half of his body and fled into the pool.
The Fish Intestine Sword is still undergoing transformation.
Xiaoman was already deathly pale and very weak. "Old buddy, are you trying to suck me to death?"
As if it could understand, it detached itself from the palm and floated in the air, looking extremely eerie.
He quickly stopped the bleeding, gave the patient several healing pills, and then sat cross-legged.
The Fish Intestine Sword stood guard over her in mid-air, like a protector...
She didn't know how much time had passed when Xiaoman suddenly opened her eyes, staring intently at the floating Fish Intestine Sword. "Come!"
It instantly rushed into the palm of my hand.
A feeling of being connected by blood spread throughout my body, bringing me physical and mental comfort.
"Could this be the final form of the Fish Intestine Sword?" Xiaoman had this thought because in an ancient book on forging, there was a swordsmith who had become a demon through forging swords. Before his death, he wrote down some insights, reflections, and some deductions.
The reasoning behind all the famous swords and knives is completely subversive.
What Xiaoman saw was one of them: summoning a sword with blood.
Gripping the hilt tightly, he ran his hand over the blade. "Should I call you the Fish Intestine Sword? Or something else?"
As the question continued, the Fish Intestine Sword trembled repeatedly.
"Your skin is all reddish, so shall we call you Red Sword?"
It did not react at all.
"Blood Sword?"
"The Crimson Sword?"
"The Bloodthirsty Sword?"
The sword trembled violently, as if it had come to life.
“Since you like the name ‘Bloodthirsty,’ from now on we’ll call you Bloodthirsty Sword.” Xiaoman chuckled as she stroked the sword’s blade, which quickly quieted down and finally came to rest.
At the same time, the sun was setting, and the setting sun shone on the sword, making it even more eerie.
"Old friend, I don't know if what I did was right?" Xiaoman gently stroked the entire sword. "I hope you won't kill your master in the future."
The sword trembled slightly, as if to say, "No, absolutely not!"
With his anxiety completely relieved, he continued to recover his internal energy...
The bottom of the pool, the deepest part.
The blue giant tried many methods, but none could remove the residual crimson power within his body.
"What the hell is this thing? It's even more evil than the techniques of our Ghost Beast Clan."
I can't figure it out, so I'll just stop thinking about it.
In his frustration, a glimpse of his lower body caught his eye, and a bold and crazy idea suddenly came to mind.
"Since we cannot expel them, then let them become part of my power."
He quickly formed hand seals, and the two halves of his body swiftly merged together. The power of the ghostly spirit acted on them, forcibly pulling the crimson power into his body.
As soon as it entered, a pain as if it were being torn apart spread throughout my body.
The ghost beast race has no physical form, yet it can make him feel pain like a living person, which shows how evil the crimson power is.
The stronger you are, the more I like you.
Amidst his maniacal laughter, his hands were not idle, constantly tearing at the crimson power.
Soon, it was torn into countless threads.
I was slowly assimilated by him...
It was around midnight.
The blue giant suddenly opened his eyes and burst into wild laughter, "I never expected that this misfortune would turn into a blessing in disguise, allowing my skills to advance even further. Now, even if I encounter that broken sword again, I will not be afraid."
"Is that so?" A chilling voice came from the shore.
"I didn't even go looking for you, but you came to my doorstep yourself. You're asking for it."
It surged upwards at high speed, unleashing countless icy energies.
Xiaoman did not dodge, but remained standing on the shore, her eyes flashing with extreme disdain.
He slowly wielded the Bloodthirsty Sword, instantly slicing the chilling aura into several pieces.
"Too weak!"
"You?" The blue giant was speechless for a moment, then became extremely angry and quickly summoned his ice spear to attack.
When the spear tip was less than twenty centimeters from his body, he slowly raised the Bloodthirsty Sword and slashed at it.
Ugh!
The power in the Frost Spear was rapidly diminishing, and the Bloodthirsty Sword was turning even redder.
"You, you?"
Xiaoman channeled her inner energy, making the Bloodthirsty Sword's devouring power even stronger; a small portion of the Frost Spear had already turned into water droplets.
The blue giant panicked and slashed at the gun barrel repeatedly, trying to break it.
The idea was good, but the power was insufficient, and the rate at which the Force was being drained became even faster.
The Frost Spear was soon reduced to just the handle.
"Great Ghost Beast King, I offer my soul as a sacrifice, please grant me power."
As soon as the incantation was finished, the sky darkened considerably, and a strange, eerie wind swept by, instantly separating them.
"I must admit, you are strong, forcing me to use this move." The blue giant's body rapidly shrank to human size, glaring venomously at Xiaoman. "With the power of the Beast King, I will surely slay you!"
"Really?" Xiaoman didn't even look at him.
"You?" The Frost Ghost wanted nothing more than to rush up and devour it alive, but it was afraid of the Bloodthirsty Sword and could only keep probing with its cold light.
The cold light had just landed near Xiaoman when it split in two and vanished without a trace.
A thousand curses ran through the Ice Ghost's mind as he rapidly increased the distance between them. "Now, the only chance of survival is to fight to the death."
With a change in mindset, they no longer cared about the power of sacrifice.
Half of its body was instantly removed, leaving it looking like a wilted, wrinkled eggplant.
Three even stronger gusts of cold wind swept in.
Xiaoman frowned slightly, quickly widened the distance, and created multiple afterimages.
Boom!
Boom...
The afterimage shattered, and the three gusts of yin wind mixed together, forming an even more violent force that surged directly into the body of the Frost Ghost.
"I sentence you to death!" The voice seemed to echo from the depths of the netherworld.
Xiaoman looked serious, her brows furrowed, and rushed out at full speed.
Where are you going?
The Ice Wraith is even faster, closing the distance to less than twenty meters in an instant.
"I definitely can't outrun him." Xiaoman's mind raced, and she suddenly spotted a narrow pit out of the corner of her eye, so she jumped right in.
"die!"
A terrifying force slammed into the crater.
As the stone shattered, Xiaoman rushed out in a disheveled state.
"You ant, let's see how many more moves you can dodge?"
More intense attacks followed, with explosions erupting behind and on both flanks, the aftershocks causing some to lose their footing.
The Bloodthirsty Sword was stimulated and emitted a 'buzzing' sound.
Xiaoman immediately sensed that it wanted to slip out of her grasp, so she quickly released her grip, and the Bloodthirsty Sword flew straight towards the Frost Wraith.
The distance was too close; it couldn't avoid it and was penetrated.
The Bloodthirsty Sword spun in the air, then returned and plunged towards the back of the head.
The icy ghosts and spirits writhed and twisted.
If it were only the Bloodthirsty Sword, he might have been able to break free, but with Xiaoman nearby, she immediately caused him a lot of trouble.
I narrowly avoided it the first two times, but tripped on the third time.
The Bloodthirsty Sword seized the opportunity and struck the back of the head, absorbing power like a whale swallowing the sea.
"No, no, no!"
The cries of the Frost Wraith grew weaker and more mournful.
Xiaoman ignored her, pressing down firmly on the body of the Frost Ghost, not giving it a chance to break free.
As time went by, no more screams could be heard.
Buzz!
The Bloodthirsty Sword burst forth with a red light, shining upon Xiaoman.
He was immediately alarmed and quickly retreated.
The sword hummed and trembled again.
"You didn't mean any harm, did you?"
The trembling became more and more intense.
Xiaoman was skeptical, but she opened up part of her mind and body, allowing the red light to enter her body. An unprecedented feeling of comfort washed over her entire body.
"Pure and righteous energy?"
After repeatedly confirming, he exclaimed, "That's truly righteous! How did you manage that?"
As if it could understand praise, the Bloodthirsty Sword emitted a joyful sound, and even purer power surged towards Xiaoman.
Immediately relax your mind and body, let it enter your body...
Click!
boom!
In just ten minutes, Xiaoman broke through two minor levels and officially entered a new realm.
He opened his eyes with satisfaction, a bitter look flashing across them. "I've only ever heard Uncle Ma mention the Grandmaster realm before. I have no idea what realms come after that." He sighed and smiled slightly. "Whatever the realm, getting stronger is the only way."
The Bloodthirsty Sword agreed with her opinion and kept ringing out.
Xiaoman stood up straight with a smile, "This trip to the Scorpion Territory was quite fruitful."
Suddenly, the incantation chanted during the Ice Spirit sacrifice flashed through his mind, and his smile vanished instantly, replaced by a furrowed brow. "Just what kind of being is this so-called Ghost Beast King?"
Memories flooded back like a tide, quickly settling on the moment before the Red Tide fell.
"We, a group of peak Seven Star experts, sacrificed our lives to finally seal the Ghost Beast King and banish it to the Evil Cloud Star System." A bitter look flashed in Chi Chao's eyes. "Child, before you grow to the legendary realm, never provoke the Ghost Beast King, and never go looking for the Evil Cloud Star System. It will bring you to your doom."
Two clear tears rolled down her cheeks. She raised her hand to wipe them away, looked at the sky, and choked out, "Third Grandfather, Xiaoman swears: no matter how strong the Ghost Beast King is, as long as it dares to provoke the Crimson Hun Empire, I will risk my life to kill it."
