More and more black smoke rose above the man's head, until finally, the entire cloud of black smoke descended upon him.
Immediately afterwards, the black smoke began to fall downwards, forming a protective barrier around the man.
The remaining black smoke was completely absorbed by the machine.
After absorbing the black smoke, the scimitar was immediately shrouded in black smoke, looking exceptionally eerie, like a weapon used by a messenger from the underworld.
"Go!" the man shouted, and his curved blade flew straight towards Liu Xiaoyuan.
"What speed!" Liu Xiaoyuan exclaimed inwardly. The curved blade was already in front of his neck. Liu Xiaoyuan took the Blood Drinking Sword and slashed at the flying curved blade. There was a loud bang. Although the curved blade was stopped, Liu Xiaoyuan also felt his hand go numb.
After being stopped by Liu Xiaoyuan, the curved blade, urged on by the man, launched another attack on Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately retreated more than a mile away, and the Blood Drinking Sword in his hand flew out again.
The man flew over with a curved blade trailing black smoke, while the Blood Drinking Sword came with a long, blood-red tail.
With a loud bang, the two magical artifacts collided solidly once again, and the energy generated destroyed the surrounding trees into dust.
This time, the two magical artifacts did not separate immediately after colliding.
The black smoke from the man's scimitar resembled vines, wrapping around the Blood Drinking Sword layer upon layer.
"Haha..." Upon seeing this, the man laughed loudly, "Kid, I've used my black smoke to corrode your magic weapon, and then it will naturally become mine!"
The black smoke from the man has the effect of contaminating a cultivator's magical artifacts. Once a cultivator's magical artifact is contaminated, it becomes a piece of junk.
After the man obtained these discarded items, through the nurturing of his inner fire, these contaminated magical artifacts would eventually become usable magical artifacts again.
Therefore, the man was so happy when the black smoke enveloped the Blood Drinking Sword, convinced that Liu Xiaoyuan's Blood Drinking Sword would definitely be contaminated by his black smoke!
"Blood Drinking Sword, break!" Liu Xiaoyuan snorted coldly and gave the command to the Blood Drinking Sword.
The Blood Drinking Sword immediately emitted a blood-red light, which was like the sun's rays breaking through the dark clouds!
With a "whoosh!" sound like flowing water, the black smoke that was entangled around the Blood Drinking Sword was directly dispersed by the black light of the Blood Drinking Sword and disappeared into the world.
The man was stunned by what he saw. His usually invincible black smoke was so vulnerable in front of the Blood Drinking Sword!
After dispelling the man's black smoke, Liu Xiaoyuan didn't linger. He immediately used the Blood Drinking Sword to slash at the man's head.
Although the man was still surprised that his black smoke was broken by the blood-red light of the Blood Drinking Sword, he immediately dodged when he saw the flying sword flying towards him.
While dodging, the man summoned his scimitar back.
The man holding the curved knife stared intently at Liu Xiaoyuan, and finally uttered a few words.
"Heavenly Demons Dance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he threw the scimitar in his hand towards Liu Xiaoyuan. As the scimitar was thrown, it immediately transformed into countless scimitars, like flowers flying all over the sky, with scimitars filling the entire air.
Moreover, all of these curved blades flew towards Liu Xiaoyuan.
Faced with this scene, Liu Xiaoyuan remained completely calm and composed!
"You have many scimitars, but don't I have many flying swords?" Thinking this, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately sent his Blood Drinking Sword to defend, and released the sword energy of the Blood Drinking Sword, which immediately transformed into flying swords.
With a series of crackling sounds, the flying sword and the curved blade collided, creating a noisy cacophony.
After the man's scimitar came into contact with the Blood Drinking Sword, the scimitars formed from black smoke dissipated once again.
In the end, only a bare scimitar remained, stubbornly putting up a last stand!
Seeing that his attack had failed once again, the man immediately recalled his curved sword and tried to escape, abandoning Zhang Qian altogether!
Seeing that the man was trying to escape, Liu Xiaoyuan certainly couldn't let him get away like that. He sent the Blood Drinking Sword flying forward to block the man's path, and then he chased after him.
After being blocked by the Blood Drinking Sword for a while, the man was immediately caught up by Liu Xiaoyuan, who blocked his way!
"Kid, leave yourself a way out. If you push too hard, we'll just die together!" The man looked at Liu Xiaoyuan angrily, threatening him with the self-destruction of his golden core.
Liu Xiaoyuan was genuinely afraid that the man's golden core would self-destruct. He might be able to escape alive, but Zhang Qian would certainly die.
Therefore, it would be best to prevent the man's golden core from exploding.
“This cultivator, cultivation is not easy, so cherish every drop!” Liu Xiaoyuan said to the man with a smile.
Hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the man glanced at him and said, "I'm returning your woman to you. I apologize for tonight's events. From now on, let's go our separate ways. What do you say?"
The man thought that his self-destruction of his golden core had frightened Liu Xiaoyuan, which was why he said that.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "I'm curious, why are you taking my woman away?"
Upon hearing this, the man looked at Liu Xiaoyuan with surprise, then quickly regained his composure and said, "It's nothing. I just thought your woman was beautiful, so I did this. I'm truly sorry for offending you, fellow Daoist!"
Liu Xiaoyuan had seen the man's expression clearly; it couldn't be hidden from his eyes. Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan didn't believe what the man said at all.
“Fellow Daoist, it seems you’re not telling me the truth,” Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, looking at the man.
The man was startled when he heard Liu Xiaoyuan's words; Liu Xiaoyuan had seen through his scheme after all.
The man thought for a moment and said, "Fellow Daoist, I'll tell you the reason. Let's just let tonight's matter go. From now on, we'll go our separate ways. What do you think?"
Damn, you're pretty clever to try and trade with me for these terms!
"No problem!" Liu Xiaoyuan nodded with a smile and immediately agreed!
Seeing that Liu Xiaoyuan agreed so readily, the man suspected there was something fishy going on and immediately said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, why deceive me? Your words are meaningless. What if you go back on your word later? Why don't you swear by your inner demons?"
Once a demon makes a vow and breaks it, the cultivator will be interfered with during the tribulation, leading to failure!
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan smiled and said, "No problem, I'll swear on my inner demons. If I, Liu Xiaoyuan, break this oath..."
The man smiled after hearing Liu Xiaoyuan swear by his inner demons.
