Although the Crimson Sword was vomiting, it was actually absorbing the power contained in the flesh and blood and the corpse water.
After absorbing all this power, the Crimson Sword emitted a red light, and its aura became even stronger.
The power, approaching that of a Saint, allowed the Crimson Sword to grow stronger.
And since this power was absorbed by the Crimson Sword, it naturally could not be distributed to other ninth-tier awakened individuals.
The awakened ones stared wide-eyed, a look of horror appearing in their eyes.
The Death Rune draws power and distributes it to everyone, allowing them to rapidly improve in a short period of time, even reaching the Saint level!
This is their most important source of confidence in confronting Lu Ning.
Now, Lu Ning has shattered that confidence.
Even so, out of hatred for the chosen ones who betrayed the great Lord, the group of ninth-tier awakened beings still roared and launched attacks, either shooting death rays at Lu Ning or summoning death minions, intending to surround Lu Ning.
Unfortunately, Lu Ning didn't give them many chances.
The Death Servant couldn't catch up with Lu Ning at all, and the Death Ray also couldn't hit Lu Ning.
Every time Lu Ning disappeared, several ninth-tier awakened individuals were dismembered in the next instant.
The dismembered corpses of the ninth-tier awakened beings did not fall to the ground; they were all absorbed by the Crimson Sword.
In less than two minutes, Lu Ning killed all of these ninth-tier awakened individuals, and even their flesh and blood were completely devoured by the Crimson Sword.
The Crimson Sword vomited as it devoured: "Ugh... It stinks... I can't eat anymore... Great master... This is shit..."
Although the Crimson Sword didn't want to eat, Lu Ning kept urging it to continue devouring without expression.
When the flesh and blood of all the ninth-tier awakened beings were devoured, the crimson light on the Crimson Sword became more bewitching and significantly stronger than before.
Lu Ning then turned his gaze to the other side.
Earlier, when Lu Ning was fighting those ninth-tier awakened individuals, the eighth-tier awakened individuals of the Guiwang Sect had already surrounded An Lan and the others.
An Lan and the others, working together with the skeletal warriors, continuously killed these awakened individuals.
Steve's entire body transformed into metal, and like a tank, he followed several skeletal warriors into the crowd of eighth-tier awakened beings. With his wide-ranging and powerful attacks, each strike severely injured an awakened being.
An Lan took out various soul crystal shells, and the energy cannon on her battle armor was also upgraded, making it much more powerful than last time.
An Lan's firepower alone suppressed more than twenty eighth-level awakened individuals.
Jerry, on the other hand, used mental attacks to strike the minds of these eighth-tier awakened individuals.
It is common to see these eighth-tier awakened individuals suddenly collapse and lose consciousness.
As a water-controlling user, Ling Chuan could conjure extremely fast water arrows that pierced through the bodies of eighth-tier awakened individuals.
As an energy control user, Su Qi could create hundreds of energy projectiles with a mere gesture. These energy projectiles shot into the crowd, creating a constant booming sound, forcing the group of eighth-tier awakened individuals to retreat repeatedly. A slight misstep could result in injury or even death.
Aila, who possesses the ability to erase her presence, strolls leisurely among the awakened members of the fallen guild, wielding two pale daggers.
Even though Ella walked right past them, no one saw her; it was as if she didn't exist.
It wasn't until Ayra plunged the dagger into the head of one of the Awakened Ones that the others suddenly realized there was someone else nearby!
However, in just a moment, they once again ignored Alaro's presence.
With the addition of ten near-Saint-level skeletal warriors working together, An Lan and her companions easily killed many eighth-tier Awakened individuals in the early stages.
However, they cannot use the Crimson Sword to absorb flesh and blood and corpse fluid like Lu Ning did.
The essence of those who died and became awakened beings transformed into power, nourishing other awakened beings to become stronger.
The remaining awakened ones have reached the ninth rank in strength.
When only forty-odd Awakened Ones remained in the Church of the Dead, these Awakened Ones were already considered quite powerful among those at the ninth rank.
The two sides remained deadlocked.
With the help of ten near-saint-level skeletal warriors, An Lan and the others were able to withstand the attacks from these awakened members of the Demise Cult.
However, their condition is getting worse and worse.
Because in this space, the aura of death is also omnipresent, and it has already reached the seventh level.
This meant that An Lan and the others had to expend a lot of mental energy to resist the invasion of these omnipresent death energies.
In addition, the intense battle at this moment is causing their mental energy to be depleted at an extremely rapid rate!
If things continue like this, An Lan and the others' condition will only get worse.
Just as they were fending off the attacks of these Awakened members of the Vanished Brigade, a blur flashed by, and several Awakened members of the Vanished Brigade on one side were immediately cut into pieces.
An Lan and the others looked over, and when they saw Lu Ning, they were immediately overjoyed.
The awakened members of the Returned Brigade stared wide-eyed, their eyes filled with horror.
They then realized that the group of powerful members of the Returning Demise Brigade who had attacked Lu Ning had all disappeared!
"How is that possible!?"
Some of the awakened members of the Exiles were incredulous.
The rune array that brings the dead back could clearly transfer the power of the dead to the undead.
Under normal circumstances, the combined power of more than thirty ninth-level awakened beings is not weak even among saints.
Even if they weren't Lu Ning's match, they should at least be able to stall him.
How could he have died so quickly?
The confusion among the awakened members of the Extinction Brigade didn't last long; they soon understood why.
