Chapter 1195: Chapter 1195: Blood-sucking Pearl
Can it be resolved quickly?
As soon as he spoke, the faces of the eight Vice Hall Masters darkened.
They are the top masters here, eight senior figures.
They are the Vice Hall Masters ranked just below the Main Hall Masters in the eight main halls.
Even with the combined efforts of eight people, they cannot deal with a single evil cultivator, unable to deal with someone who has bathed multiple cities in blood.
"This evil cultivator has exceedingly strange methods and has absorbed countless Essence Blood; how could he be slain in a short period?"
The Vice Hall Master of Asura Hall was the first to speak.
The Vice Hall Master of Demon Hunting Hall followed, "If I’m not mistaken, the Blood Dao Body is an ancient evil prohibition."
"Although this monster has not fully achieved its form, it is extremely troublesome."
Not far away, the Qin Family Great Elder said coldly, "Boy, speaking so boldly, if you have the skill, go ahead and slay him."
Xiao Yi’s face was icy cold, but he said nothing more.
If he could slay this evil cultivator, he would have done so long ago; there was no need to come wielding his sword at this moment.
At this time, the old man attacked again.
The hand that had been pierced by a sword was, at some point, completely healed.
"Star Illusion Sword Formation." Xiao Yi shouted.
Starlight descended from the heavens.
The starlight formed a sword array that instantly trapped the old man.
"Illusion Flame Fire Formation." The Vice Hall Master of Flame Hall waved his hand.
Ferocious fire dragons entwined upward.
"I suggest we retreat from the forest first." Xiao Yi said solemnly.
"Retreat from the forest?" The eight Vice Hall Masters frowned at his words, "Impossible."
Xiao Yi also frowned and said, "After retreating from the forest, seal this place with the Great Formation to prevent the evil cultivator from escaping."
"Wait for a strong figure at the Main Hall Master level to arrive and then kill the evil cultivator in one fell swoop."
"Otherwise, if the battle drags on, I’m afraid unforeseen changes will occur."
The battle has already lasted more than two hours, and the eight Vice Hall Masters still cannot slay this evil cultivator.
And Xiao Yi felt an inexplicable sense of foreboding.
He even suspected that this evil cultivator was merely stalling for time.
"We can’t retreat." The Vice Hall Master of Heavenly Mechanism Hall shook his head, "Otherwise, the collaboration of the eight main halls will be nothing more than a joke this time."
Boom...
At this moment, a blood-colored light flashed on the old man’s body.
Xiao Yi’s Star Illusion Sword Formation instantly collapsed.
The flames of Flame Hall’s Vice Hall Master exploded, turning into scattered fire sparks.
"Want to retreat? Too late." The old man’s eerie laughter echoed through the Demon Beast Forest.
A chilling aura suddenly surged, overwhelming the sky.
"Humph." The Vice Hall Master of Asura Hall snorted coldly, and his explosive fist struck hard, trying to disperse the chilling aura.
"Monster, we may not be able to deal with you in the short term."
"But you won’t escape either."
"Just keep suppressing you; even by attrition, we can exhaust and kill you."
"Really?" The old man coldly laughed, "Exhaust and kill me? Gah gah gah gah."
The old man suddenly laughed wildly.
The grating and icy laughter caused everyone’s hearts to sink suddenly.
The old man’s hand flashed with light, and a bead emitting boundless blood-colored light appeared out of thin air.
The already overwhelming chilling aura suddenly went berserk.
Zz... zz... zz...
The Vice Hall Master of Asura Hall, who attacked first, had his fist touch the aura, causing it to sizzle instantaneously.
This time, Xiao Yi watched closely.
The sizzling sound from the Vice Hall Master of Asura Hall’s fist was not from corrosion but from the absorption of blood and flesh.
However, the body cultivation martial artist had a sturdy body, so the absorption speed was not too fast.
Xiao Yi watched the Vice Hall Master of Asura Hall’s fist.
The eight Vice Hall Masters simultaneously looked at the blood-colored bead in the old man’s hand.
"That... Could it be..."
"The Blood-sucking Pearl, it’s the Blood-sucking Pearl." The Vice Hall Master of Demon Hunting Hall exclaimed, recognizing it at a glance.
"What? Blood-sucking Pearl?" Xiao Yi heard and looked towards the bead in the old man’s hand, his face instantly changed.
"Not good, retreat quickly." Xiao Yi shouted.
"Retreat." The eight Vice Hall Masters also shouted, retreating continuously.
"Now you want to retreat? Too late." The old man sneered coldly.
The frail body moved swiftly, flashing forward.
The withered hand grasped heavily towards the Vice Hall Master of Flame Hall.
The Vice Hall Master of Flame Hall’s pupils shrunk; before he could react, the withered hand had pierced through his heart.
"Bastard." The Vice Hall Master of Asura Hall stomped his foot, colliding towards the old man like a meteor.
The old man chuckled archly, withdrew his hand in a flash, and disappeared from his location.
The ghost-like figure constantly shuttled among the Eight Palace Martial Artists.
Any martial artist touched by the withered hand would instantly turn to bones and vanish.
Meanwhile, the old man’s originally frail body gradually ’filled out.’
The withered hand slowly gained a sense of ’flesh.’
In just a moment, hundreds of martial artists had been obliterated, dying horribly.
"Bastard." The Vice Hall Master of Asura Hall furiously attacked.
The destructive force of the fist struck the old man heavily.
The old man was unafraid, releasing a claw.
Sss...
The old man’s sharp fingers pierced through the Vice Hall Master’s fist in an instant.
"As I said, obediently become my nourishment."
The old man’s hand vibrated, shaking the Vice Hall Master away.
Then, the ghost-like figure continued to shuttle, reaping the lives of the Eight Palace martial artists.
"Hm?" Not far away, Xiao Yi noticed the old man’s direction, his expression changed.
The old man was reaching towards Qing Lin.
"Damn it." Xiao Yi’s figure flashed, wielding his sword upward.
Just as the old man reached for Qing Lin, Xiao Yi pulled Qing Lin behind him.
Clang...
The Cold Flame Sword’s icy edge blocked the old man’s hand.
"Hm?" The old man’s fierce gaze directly locked onto Xiao Yi.
The gaze contained a mix of ferociousness, still tinged with disdain.
"A mere brat dares to block me? Trying to take someone from me?"
Following his words, a wave of chilling aura instantly engulfed Xiao Yi and Qing Lin.
Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, surging killing intent poured forth.
Bloody light covered the sky, shielding from the chilling aura.
"I protect those I want to, an evil cultivator dreams of killing them? Ridiculous."
The cold and arrogant demeanor instantly targeted the old man.
Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh...
The Eight Palace martial artists, under the orders of the eight Vice Hall Masters, quickly retreated.
"Trying to leave?" The old man’s eyes were ice-cold.
"You all must die."
The old man’s gaze swept over everyone, finally fixing on Xiao Yi and Qing Lin.
"Get lost." The old man’s withered hand clutched Xiao Yi’s Cold Flame Sword, violently twisting.
However, Xiao Yi held the sword firmly with both hands, the sword edge unmoving.
High above, snowflakes drifted down unknowingly.
Within the snowflakes, overwhelming Sword Intent pressed upon the old man.
"Seeking death." The old man’s other hand shot out a beam of light from the Blood-sucking Pearl.
The chilling aura raged like a desert storm, devouring everything.
Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, his internal Blood Pill suddenly activated.
The blood-colored curtain blocked the surging chilling aura.
"It’s you?" The old man’s brows furrowed, fierceness appeared in his eyes.
"You battled me outside Tianling City that day, hindering my aura, was it you?"
...
