Chapter 185
The Blood Skeleton in the sky looked down at Sheng Bailan on the ground.
“Sheng Bailan, the two swords from three years ago are still fresh in my memory. Today, I will grind your bones to dust!”
“Your life is mine!”
Before the words faded, a thick blood mist surged from its body, condensing into a massive blood-colored hammer in the air, which then smashed down with great force!
The blood-colored hammer, carrying a sea of blood, descended toward Sheng Bailan.
Sheng Bailan gripped her sword tightly with both hands, her entire body radiating a sharp, chilling aura.
“My heart is like a sword, the sword reflects my heart!”
She raised her head, her gaze fierce, a cold smile curving her lips.
With a wave of her right hand, a pure white sword light shot into the sky, instantly coalescing into a ten-thousand-foot-long giant sword!
The sword, flawless and translucent, shimmered with a dazzling brilliance, as if it contained boundless sharpness and the power to annihilate the heavens and the earth.
Around the blade, a faint golden halo swirled, a protective barrier formed by the sword’s intent.
The sword’s aura soared into the sky!
The massive blood-red hammer collided with the luminous sword, producing a deafening roar. The sword trembled violently, emitting crisp cracking sounds, as if it were on the verge of shattering the next moment.
Boom!!!
Above, the clouds churned, dark and heavy, with lightning flashing and thunder rumbling. The earth itself quaked, as if the end of the world had come.
Crack!
The blood-red hammer erupted with a crimson light, dispersing into countless blood-red droplets that rained down to the ground. The corrosive blood created numerous craters of varying sizes.
Simultaneously, cracks spread along the sword’s blade until it finally shattered with a loud crash.
The sky returned to calm once more.
This clash had ended in a draw.
Dragon-Tiger Sect Master was instantly shocked. After revealing his Blood Demon true form, he had attained the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, while Sheng Bailan was only at the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm, unworthy of being compared to him.
Even if Sheng Bailan had mastered the Great Perfection of Sword Intent, it only gave her the qualification to face him. How could the current situation have arisen?
Moreover, the blood-red hammer had dispersed before the luminous sword, indicating that Sheng Bailan’s strike was slightly stronger than his blood-red hammer!
On the ground, Sheng Bailan stood in her snow-white robes, spotless and untainted, her black hair cascading over her shoulders, exuding an ethereal and cold aura, seemingly unharmed.
In her pupils, sword energy intertwined, with five thousand sword shadows densely packed, almost bursting forth, ready to tear apart the heavens and the earth!
Seeing this, Dragon-Tiger Sect Master was once again startled. The massive blood-red skeleton in the sky seemed to twist, and the entire sky echoed with deafening roars.
“This is impossible! What kind of divine ability is this?! It can actually match me evenly!”
Sheng Bailan’s brows lifted slightly, and the corners of her lips curled into a faint smile.
“This is my innate divine ability. My heart is the sword, and the sword reflects my heart.”
The blood-red figure in the sky spoke again, its voice hoarse and unpleasant, carrying a chilling coldness.
“Sheng Bailan! Who do you think you are? So what if you’ve comprehended an innate divine ability? You’re just seeking death!”
As he spoke, the blood energy around his body surged wildly once more, forming an even more terrifying energy storm. In the sky, the blood-red hammer reappeared, carrying a rolling pressure and destructive force, bearing down on Sheng Bailan!
“Today, I will use you to test the might of my Spirit Sword Sect’s five thousand swords in slaying demons!”
Sheng Bailan snorted coldly, her foot stomping the ground. Around her, five thousand sword shadows gathered, like a vast and boundless sea, filling the space between heaven and earth!
The sword energies clashed, and the roars were unceasing. The entire world seemed to explode, with countless massive fissures appearing on the ground, rocks shattering, boulders tumbling, and dust billowing.
“Kill!”
With her light shout, a pure white sword light, like a rainbow piercing the sun, wrapped in five thousand sword shadows, shot into the sky like a meteor chasing the moon, heading straight for the blood-red hammer.
The blood-red hammer exuded a bloody scent, resembling a massive ruby, shimmering with a dazzling red light under the sun, with a hidden aura of bloodlust!
Boom!!!
The two collided with a thunderous impact, unleashing a cataclysmic explosion!
Fine cracks began to appear at the point of collision, spreading in all directions. The entire ground seemed to tremble, and the earth split open, revealing countless massive craters.
Both combatants had reached the pinnacle of the Nascent Soul Realm, and their full-powered strikes were infinitely close to the Divine Transformation Realm.
The clash of their divine abilities lasted only a moment before a victor emerged.
The five thousand sword shadows dispersed, turning into specks of starlight before vanishing completely. Meanwhile, the massive blood-colored hammer was instantly shattered into pieces!
However, the pure, jade-like sword light did not stop. Instead, it accelerated, continuing its relentless advance!
In a flash, the sword light closed in on the blood-colored skeleton!
A trace of apprehension flickered in the skeleton’s pupils. Although his Blood Demon True Body was formidable, it still fell short compared to the sword light capable of shattering the blood-colored hammer. If struck directly, the damage would likely be severe!
But.
At this point, there was no retreat for him.
If he retreated now, he would become a stray dog, hunted by everyone. Once the Eastern Pole Holy Academy dispatched their supreme saint-level experts, he would have nowhere to escape.
At this moment, the only way out was to burn his bridges and perform the sacrificial ritual in advance, summoning the True Demon Lord to cross realms. Only then could he grasp a sliver of hope!
Thinking this, a ferocious expression appeared on the blood-colored skeleton’s face.
The pupils in his eyes suddenly dilated, turning a deep crimson.
From within his body, a series of crackling and popping sounds erupted, and streams of blood gushed out, transforming into an enormous skull in the void!
The skull let out a deafening roar, opening its bloodthirsty maw. An immense devouring force, capable of swallowing all of heaven and earth, burst forth, sucking everything in its surroundings into its mouth!
Even Sheng Bailan’s sword energy was devoured in an instant!
Yet, the colossal skull remained unscathed!
Sheng Bailan’s expression changed drastically. In an instant, she retreated tens of thousands of feet, her face pale.
“What kind of monster is this?!”
That earlier sword strike had been her full-powered attack. If it had landed, it would have been enough to destroy the blood-colored skeleton. But what kind of existence was this suddenly appearing skull?
“Roar!”
A piercing scream echoed, and a blood mist enveloped the area, completely submerging hundreds of thousands of blood demon puppets.
Blood clouds filled the sky, blotting out the sun.
Blood mist was everywhere between heaven and earth.
This was a catastrophe!
Within the blood clouds, amidst the endless blood mist, a jade-white bone hand slowly emerged, towering a hundred feet tall. Its entire body was pure white, exuding an aura of sanctity and radiance.
Meanwhile, the blood demon puppets that had been absorbed vanished without a trace.
Witnessing this scene, Sheng Bailan was filled with confusion.
After absorbing hundreds of thousands of blood demon puppets, the True Demon of the Southern Wasteland that had finally been summoned was completely different from its puppet servants!
