487: Please get on your way!

Clang!

It was as if countless weapons clashed simultaneously, like jade glaze overturning, or luminous pearls falling!

Yet, Bu Jin seemed as if he hadn't been stabbed in the body. Blood light shimmered on his right fist as he lightly threw a punch. The tiny muscles and skin on his body vibrated the air, emitting the roar of a Dragon and a tiger, instantly striking the constantly trembling spine of the blade!

What appeared to be a light punch erupted with an unparalleled, mountain-toppling, sea-raging force the moment it made contact, instantly sweeping the latter half of the long blade in Shen Bei’s hand to the side, instantly breaking Shen Bei’s surging blade momentum!

Immediately, Bu Jin’s left hand, like a nimble flying bird, simultaneously reached the other side of the long blade’s spine in Shen Bei’s hand, instantly grasping the long blade’s stress point, which had been disrupted by the punch, and then lightly flicked it!

Hum!

Amidst the Dragon’s roar, Shen Bei only felt a violent tremor in his tiger’s mouth, and his entire body’s Qi and blood rushed out like a floodgate opening, rapidly draining along the long blade!

At the same time, the long blade in his hand instantly vibrated incessantly like a spiritual snake, detaching from Bu Jin’s body and also from Shen Bei’s own control, shooting straight up dozens of meters into the sky!

The long blade in his hand had actually been disarmed by Bu Jin’s series of bizarre attacks.

“Not good!”

Two Headed Vine, who was nearby, had her eyelids twitch fiercely when Bu Jin actively presented his chest to Shen Bei’s fierce and unmatched blade light, but she couldn't understand the reason.

One must know that both of them were high-rank Martial Artists. When they fought, their momentum was like thunder, shaking the earth, and there was almost no situation where they would trade injuries, which only low-level Martial Artists would experience.

At their level, the power of every move and every stance was incredibly immense. For instance, if Bu Jin were to take Shen Bei’s blade head-on, the point where the blade pierced through his body would become the point of force, reverberating throughout his entire body, and his internal organs would inevitably shatter!

True powerhouses decide life and death in an instant. Two Headed Vine couldn't understand why Bu Jin would have any reason to self-destruct. Even if he knocked Shen Bei’s long blade away, what good would that do?

“This guy is definitely not seeking death; he must have some purpose!”

Although Two Headed Vine couldn't participate in the life-or-death struggle between Shen Bei and Bu Jin, she could still surmise that Bu Jin actively allowing Shen Bei’s long blade to pierce his body was definitely not that simple!

Just then, Shen Bei’s expression changed drastically, and he didn't continue his attack. Instead, he slid his feet, abruptly retreated more than ten meters, and stared intently at Bu Jin.

The reason he didn't pursue the victory was to guard against Bu Jin instantly going all out in a desperate, destructive counterattack.

And just now, the power of the “Star Constellation Intermittent Kill” had reached its peak. It was a blade strike that could easily cut through metal and shatter stone. The moment it penetrated Bu Jin’s body, Shen Bei could easily feel the blade light spreading and twisting, shredding Bu Jin’s internal organs into pieces.

Even if Bu Jin had the Cultivation of a Nine-Rank Martial Artist, it would be of no avail; he could only linger on, unable to hold on for much longer.

His only doubt was that the moment the blade pierced Bu Jin’s chest, a very strange suction force emanated from his body, causing him to lose a considerable amount of Qi and blood.

Devouring Qi and blood—such a bizarre phenomenon was simply unheard of.

Shen Bei knew how to extract other people’s True Qi, but extracting Qi and blood was a first for him.

Could it be that he had also Cultivated some other Martial Skill?

Shen Bei had fought many battles, big and small, and had seen many different kinds of Martial Artists.

Shen Bei knew very well in his heart that no matter what kind of recovery ability Bu Jin possessed, wanting to repair shattered internal organs in such a short time was a pipe dream.

In the current situation, no matter what, Bu Jin, in his eyes, was beyond salvation.

Shen Bei stood with his hands behind his back, smirking as he surveyed Bu Jin’s blood-soaked figure in the arena, and slowly said:

“Even an ant clings to life. What act are you putting on? Or are you saying that the Martial Skill you Cultivate can even heal injuries where your internal organs are shattered?”

At this moment, within the sea of blood swirling around Bu Jin, countless gray mists surged, like strands of tattered cotton dancing. This was caused by the electric current from Shen Bei rapidly spreading due to the intense circulation of his Qi and blood during their fierce exchange.

His face, too, was as pale as a corpse.

“Among the younger generation of Martial Artists in various Martial Dao factions, you are indeed among the undisputed top tier. I assume your helper is also the same.”

Two Headed Vine: ???

I'm not, don't talk nonsense!

At this moment, Bu Jin coughed lightly, a few drops of blood spilling out. Even though his body was shattered internally, he spoke calmly, as if nothing had happened:

“Since that’s the case, allow the two of you to witness my true methods.”

“Oh?” Shen Bei couldn't help but chuckle, looking at Bu Jin with interest: “What other methods do you have? What else can you do?”

“Allow the two of you to know, so you can be clear ghosts.”

At this moment, Bu Jin revealed a sinister smile.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh… Whoosh whoosh whoosh…

The moment his words fell, sounds of surging and crashing tides suddenly echoed in the air without any apparent cause. A strong smell of blood instantly spread, and behind Bu Jin, a vast sea of blood churned and surged. The feeling was as if it was no longer an illusion, but a real, boundless sea of blood!

This sea of blood seemed to have descended across the endless Void Realm, or perhaps it surged out from within his body, instantly flowing and spreading over Bu Jin’s entire being.

And this expanding sea of blood emitted clusters of milky white light, as if possessing vital energy, tightly enveloping Bu Jin’s entire body, transforming him into a humanoid figure condensed from blood!

Amidst the flickering blood light, this blood-colored figure had no discernible features or expressions, only two narrow, dark slits where the eyes should be, from which a gaze of deathly stillness emanated.

Shen Bei and Two Headed Vine’s pupils simultaneously constricted!

Right before their eyes, a living, breathing body of flesh and blood had transformed into a humanoid blood shadow!

This transformation was as if Bu Jin’s body was truly condensed from the blood in the sea of blood, resembling a demon, and could no longer be called human.

What the hell is this!?

Even Shen Bei, who was well-traveled and knowledgeable, felt a violent shock in his heart, like crashing waves, upon seeing this scene.

It was just that the milky white light clusters felt somewhat familiar to Shen Bei!

Wasn't that the light cluster Bu Jin had pulled from the foreheads of corpses at the crematorium back then?

Shen Bei’s expression was extremely grave: “Those white light clusters… are the manifestation of life, right?”

“Haha!” Bu Jin’s laughter reverberated in the night wind, even overpowering its roar: “It seems you still have some cleverness.”

“Let me tell you, after a person dies, their life force doesn't immediately disappear, but rather lingers within the body, like water stains on the inside of a cup. Although there’s no water in the cup, there are still residues on the cup wall. This is the manifestation of life force.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Bei narrowed his eyes: “You’ve accumulated a large amount of life force!”

Bu Jin spread his hands, utterly arrogant: “So, what are you going to do?”

Shen Bei’s scalp went numb!

Isn’t this equivalent to being able to replenish life at any time, anywhere?

Others have one life, but you, Bu Jin, can shake out thirty lives with your up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, B, A!

This is… troublesome!

And he’s still a Nine-Rank Martial Artist.

However, Bu Jin naturally ignored Shen Bei’s shock, and with a sinister smile, his dead-still gaze swept slightly—

“Gentlemen, please depart!”
