634: The blood-horned sheep king, with blood like a dragon
Beautiful Goat and the two Sheep Kings beside her suddenly vanished from their spots like ghosts, without any warning.
This change happened so quickly that Zhu Jianhua had no time to react.
However, what astonished him even more was a massive blood-red slash that suddenly descended from the sky, like the Milky Way pouring down from the Nine Heavens, heading straight for him!
Zhu Jianhua was greatly alarmed. He instinctively wanted to dodge this terrifying attack, but to his horror, he found his body was firmly locked by an invisible force, unable to break free no matter how he struggled.
“Blood Slash Without Bounds!”
Accompanied by a deafening roar, Zhu Jianhua's location was instantly engulfed by violent energy, with dust and shattered stones scattering like rain.
The entire Scarlet Grassland trembled under this immense power.
And under this terrifying slash, the Demonic Beasts, Forbidden Land Creatures, and even the Blood Disciples who were rampaging across the grassland had no time to dodge.
They were all swept into it, resulting in countless casualties and a gruesome sight.
As the smoke and dust gradually cleared, everyone finally saw the situation on the ground.
Zhu Jianhua's figure swayed, as if he could collapse at any moment.
His entire body had been brutally split in half by that blood-red slash, with only a small portion of flesh barely connected.
However, unbelievably, despite suffering such severe injuries, Zhu Jianhua miraculously stood at the edge of the bottomless crack.
Although the blood energy surrounding him was slightly dim, it remained incredibly resilient.
At the same time, as the blood energy surged, his body's injuries recovered at a visible speed.
“What a pity.”
Zhu Jianhua wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked up at the sky, where a figure clad in a blood-red robe and wearing a horned crown slowly emerged.
He exuded a heart-pounding pressure, and it was none other than the revered Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor of the Sheep Clan!
“Zhu Jianhua, you dare to trespass into my Sheep Clan’s Forbidden Ground and slaughter my Sheep King. Today will be your death day!”
The Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor's voice was deep and majestic. After speaking, he gently raised his hand, and the surrounding space seemed to solidify, an indescribable sense of oppression enveloping the entire area.
Facing the Sheep Emperor's pressure, Zhu Jianhua's eyes showed no hint of retreat; instead, a more intense fighting spirit ignited within him.
“What if he's the Sheep Emperor? Today, let me see how much strength you, the so-called Sheep Emperor, truly possess!”
Before his words finished, Zhu Jianhua's internal blood energy churned, and a more violent energy than before surged within him.
Blood-red patterns even appeared on the surface of his body, as if he were a battle god returned from Hell, bathed in blood.
He gripped his blood-red battle saber tightly, and his figure transformed into a streak of blood-light, actively charging towards the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor. Wherever the saber's glow passed, space was torn apart.
The Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor snorted coldly, forming hand seals. Instantly, blood-red clouds gathered in the sky, with lightning flashing within them, as if foretelling the imminent arrival of a destructive storm.
“Blood Cloud Thunderstorm, descend for me!”
Accompanying the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor's low chant, countless blood-red lightning bolts poured down like dragons.
They collided with Zhu Jianhua's blood-red saber glow, erupting in deafening roars and dazzling light.
At the center of the battlefield, an energy storm raged. Zhu Jianhua and the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor's figures flickered in and out of sight, each clash powerful enough to change mountains and rivers and shake heaven and earth.
The surrounding Forbidden Land Creatures and the remaining Demon Beast Army had long since retreated, and even Zhou Rong and others had moved far away, only able to watch this unimaginable battle from a distance, their hearts filled with unparalleled shock.
But with the appearance of the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor, those Forbidden Land Creatures completely boiled over. They charged again like madmen!
As time passed, the battle intensified.
In the sky, although Zhu Jianhua was formidable, facing a Sheep Emperor-level expert, he gradually fell into a disadvantage.
His body was covered in wounds, and his blood-red battle saber began to show cracks.
Yet, despite this, his eyes remained resolute, as if some obsession supported him to continue fighting.
“Zhu Jianhua, give up resisting. Your path ends here.”
The Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor's voice pierced through the storm, carrying a hint of imperceptible shock.
Clearly, this battle was not easy for him either.
However, Zhu Jianhua paid no heed. Although he didn't know why Luo Xiu's will didn't act, he himself faintly had signs of a Breakthrough.
“Sheep Emperor, today, either I die, or your Sheep Clan’s Forbidden Ground will be drenched in blood!”
With that, Zhu Jianhua's internal blood energy boiled to its extreme.
He seemed to merge with the battle saber in his hand, transforming into a blood-red meteor, charging recklessly towards the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor in a final assault.
The blood energy surrounding Zhu Jianhua suddenly erupted with unprecedented brilliant light, as if it wanted to dye the entire world blood-red.
His speed surged, almost exceeding the limit of what the naked eye could capture, carrying a sense of resolve and madness, heading straight for the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor.
Seeing this, the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor's eyes flashed with solemnity.
He knew that this strike was no small matter; if he were to meet it head-on, even he would have to pay a considerable price.
So, his figure swayed, leaving an afterimage in place, while his true body instantly teleported into mid-air, rapidly forming hand seals and chanting under his breath.
“Blood Realm Domain, activate!”
As his words fell, the entire space seemed to be enveloped by an invisible blood membrane. The flow of time within the Domain slowed, and even the air became heavy.
Zhu Jianhua's blood-red meteor, just as it was about to touch the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor, drastically slowed down, as if it had fallen into a quagmire.
But this did not cause Zhu Jianhua to retreat in the slightest. He roared, and the blood energy within him seemed to burn to its extreme.
He slowly, bit by bit, closed in on the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor in this slowed time flow.
There was no fear in his eyes, only a desire for victory and a challenge to fate.
Seeing this, the Bloodhorn Sheep Emperor no longer held back. He chanted, “Blood Judgment, descend!”
Before his words finished, the blood clouds gathered in the sky suddenly churned and boiled, and a massive blood-red pillar of light descended from the sky, striking directly at Zhu Jianhua's location.
This pillar of light contained the power accumulated by the Sheep Clan over a hundred years, enough to utterly obliterate any existence that dared to challenge the Sheep Emperor's authority.
However, at this decisive moment, an unprecedented power fluctuation suddenly erupted from within Zhu Jianhua.
It was the potential he had accumulated through long-term cultivation, now completely unleashed.
Under the illumination of the blood-light, his body seemed to ignite, and the blood energy around him was like an ancient blood dragon that had been dormant for a long time, suddenly Awakening.
This blood energy was like surging waves, roaring and mighty, making one's heart palpitate.
