168: Kill

Typically, the speed at which a Blood Seal absorbs Natal Martial Blood primarily depends on how long the Blood Seal has been on the body.

The longer the Blood Seal remains on the body, the more deeply rooted it becomes.

The faster it will absorb the Natal Martial Blood.

The Blood Seals on these Blood Martial Realm Servants had been present for some time, so when Xiao Shi used these Blood Seals to absorb their Natal Martial Blood, the Natal Martial Blood within these Blood Martial Realm Servants surged like a rushing river, continuously gathering into the Blood Seal and being absorbed by it.

Xiao Shi stood high in the sky, looking down at the Blood Martial Realm Servants below who were steadily weakening.

He was not in a hurry to act.

He was waiting!

Waiting for the opponent to be absorbed by the Blood Seal to their weakest point was the best time to strike.

The Blood Martial Realm Servants below, on the other hand, were in a panic.

They tried many methods to stop the loss of their Natal Martial Blood, but all were in vain.

No matter what he did, the Natal Martial Blood within his body continued to drain away.

Soon, the Natal Martial Blood within his body had shrunk several times due to the continuous loss.

It even seemed unable to maintain its original state, as if it was about to dissipate.

This also made the Blood Martial Realm Servant look dispirited and extremely weak.

"That’s enough."

A cold glint flashed in Xiao Shi's eyes.

His entire figure immediately plunged from the sky.

And during the descent, the shoulder armor on his shoulders directly transformed from its flying state into its heavy pressure state, forming a heavy pressure domain.

Buzz!

In an instant, centered around Xiao Shi's body, every part of the surrounding area was filled with extremely terrifying heavy pressure.

Even the vegetation in this area crumbled under this heavy pressure, crushed into fragments.

Its power was astonishing.

The Blood Martial Realm Servant, already weakened by the loss of his Natal Martial Blood, instantly felt the terrifying heavy pressure descending.

He felt as if a mountain had crashed down from the sky, and the terrifying oppressive force bent his back, preventing him from looking up and seeing the scene above.

He only knew that the terrifying pressure coming from above was continuously suppressing his body.

Although he had become weak due to the loss of his Natal Martial Blood, he had more than one Natal Martial Blood within his body after all!

At this critical juncture, boom!

His other Natal Martial Blood immediately activated and erupted, causing his hunched and bent body to straighten up.

He sharply looked up at the sky.

What he saw was a roaring blood-colored finger glow descending.

This blood-colored finger glow was dozens of meters long, like a blood-colored lightning bolt, piercing through the air with a whistle, tearing through the void, and instantly reaching the Blood Martial Realm Servant at an astonishing speed.

This caused the Blood Martial Realm Servant's pupils to contract.

He felt an incredibly strong threat from this blood-colored finger glow.

He immediately did not dare to hesitate in the slightest.

He grabbed at the void with both hands, and a pair of meteor hammers appeared in his hands.

He immediately swung the meteor hammers, smashing them simultaneously towards the whistling blood-colored finger glow.

Boom!!

Under the violent collision, the meteor hammers in his hands vibrated greatly, and amidst the vibrations, spiderweb-like cracks spread.

Inside the meteor hammers, there was even extremely severe damage caused by the tearing of the blood-colored finger glow, making the entire meteor hammer tattered.

This Blood Martial Realm Servant was incredibly shocked by this.

Although the pair of meteor hammers in his hands were far from reaching the level of a Blood Weapon, they were already very close.

If it were an ordinary attack, it would certainly not be able to cause so much damage to his meteor hammers.

The entire core of his meteor hammer was destroyed by Xiao Shi's single finger.

At the same time, this Blood Martial Realm Servant was also forced to retreat continuously under the powerful impact.

Because he was still within Xiao Shi's heavy pressure domain at this time, it was as if he was carrying many mountains on his back, so every step he took left a deep indentation on the ground.

"Is this… the power of the Blood Vein Finger!"

Xiao Shi's eyes narrowed slightly.

This was his first time using the Blood Vein Finger.

He knew that he couldn't unleash the true power of the Blood Vein Finger yet.

After all, the strength of the Blood Vein Finger mainly lies in its power increasing with each successful kill.

It could be said that… the current Blood Vein Finger was at its weakest period.

But even so, Xiao Shi's single finger directly destroyed the meteor hammers in his opponent's hands.

Whoosh!

After unleashing the Blood Vein Finger, Xiao Shi did not stop his attack.

He knew very well that the Blood Vein Finger alone would definitely not kill the opponent.

Even though this Blood Martial Realm Servant was greatly weakened by the Blood Seal, he still had one Natal Martial Blood remaining in his body.

And Xiao Shi's Blood Seal could only affect one Natal Martial Blood at a time, unable to act on two Natal Martial Bloods simultaneously.

Therefore, killing this person was by no means an easy task.

The Blood Vein Finger was merely a prelude.

The next strike was Xiao Shi's true killing move!

Xiao Shi flipped his hand and grabbed, and a huge blood-colored longbow immediately appeared in his hand.

It was… the Blood Shadow Sky Bow!

The moment he took out the Blood Shadow Sky Bow, Xiao Shi immediately drew the bowstring.

His Natal Martial Blood then condensed on the bowstring, forming a blood-colored arrow.

The entire arrow was composed entirely of Xiao Shi's Natal Martial Blood, causing a low tiger roar to emanate even before the arrow was shot, just by remaining on the bow.

Its sound was clear, shaking the void, and carried a sense of majesty.

At the same time, the entire tiger roar seemed to directly enter the brain, causing a great tremor in the mind of the distant Blood Martial Realm Servant.

He looked at the blood-colored longbow in Xiao Shi's hand, his pupils contracting violently.

From this blood-colored longbow, he felt an indescribable life-and-death crisis.

"Could this be…"

"A Blood Weapon!!"

His mind was in turmoil at this moment, never expecting to see a Blood Weapon here!

He knew very well the terrifying power of a Blood Weapon, and also its rarity.

In his current state, facing a Blood Weapon, there was no hope of survival.

"Stop… stop!"

He frantically tried to negotiate with Xiao Shi.

However, Xiao Shi had no intention of talking to him at all.

Whoosh!

His finger loosened, and the entire arrow immediately transformed into a blood-colored streak, shooting out rapidly.

As the arrow shot out, it directly transformed into a massive Crimson Tiger mid-flight, approaching at an extremely fast speed while running.

Its momentum was astonishing, and the tiger's roar was incessant.

The intense feeling of impending death caused bloodshot veins to appear in the Blood Martial Realm Servant's pupils.

A stinging sensation also appeared between his eyebrows.

Based on his understanding of Blood Weapons, he knew that the possibility of him being able to withstand this arrow was extremely low.

If his other Natal Martial Blood had not been lost, with the power of his two Natal Martial Bloods, there would still be a good chance of him being able to block this arrow.

But now, relying solely on one Natal Martial Blood… it was truly difficult to resist.

It could be said that this arrow, for him, had almost pronounced his death sentence!

And in this situation where he knew he was bound to die, his eyes immediately filled with madness.

All Blood Martial Realm martial artists possess the ability to self-destruct in desperate situations.

When they face despair and know they are doomed, they can often choose to detonate the Natal Martial Blood within their bodies, thereby perishing with their enemies.

At this moment, facing the arrow rapidly approaching from Xiao Shi, knowing that death was certain, the Blood Martial Realm Servant clenched his fists, and veins bulged on the back of his hands.

With a low roar, filled with madness and despair, he decisively began to detonate the Natal Martial Blood within his body!

"Worst case, we die together!"

His eyes were filled with frenzy.

However, his actions were already within Xiao Shi's expectations.

Ever since his first battle with a Blood Martial Realm martial artist, where he was caught off guard by their Natal Martial Blood detonation technique, Xiao Shi had already taken precautions against this move.

If it were before… facing such a Natal Martial Blood detonation technique, he would certainly be unable to stop it and could only choose to flee.

But in that case, once the opponent self-destructed, he wouldn't be able to obtain the items dropped after the kill.

However, now, Xiao Shi already possessed the means to prevent them from detonating their Natal Martial Blood.

"Seal!"

He silently chanted in his heart.

Buzz!

Immediately, the Blood Seal within the Blood Martial Realm Servant's body emitted a blood-colored light that only Xiao Shi himself could see.

Now, after absorbing most of the Blood Martial Realm Servant's Natal Martial Blood, the Blood Seal had been greatly enhanced from its original foundation.

And the function of this Blood Seal, in addition to being able to be recalled into one's own body to strengthen one's Natal Martial Blood, could also seal the Blood Martial Realm Servant's body!

Especially after absorbing most of his Natal Martial Blood, the sealing ability of this Blood Seal was greatly enhanced.

If it were before absorbing the Natal Martial Blood, Xiao Shi would certainly not be able to seal his body through the Blood Seal.

Now, at his thought, streaks of blood-colored patterns, like shackles, covered the Blood Martial Realm Servant's entire body, rendering him completely unable to move.

The detonation of his Natal Martial Blood also came to an abrupt halt.

This sudden change caused the Blood Martial Realm Servant to widen his eyes, filled with horror and fear.

From the very beginning, he had already noticed that something was wrong with his body.

His Natal Martial Blood was out of control.

However, he had never encountered such a situation before, not even heard of it.

And now, it was even more serious.

Not only his Natal Martial Blood, but his entire body was also out of control.

"You… what exactly did you do to me!!"

At this moment, he had fully realized that all the problems he was experiencing were brought about by this mysterious person in front of him.

Xiao Shi did not answer his question.

He had no habit of enlightening the dead.

Whoosh!

After making him unable to detonate his Natal Martial Blood, the Crimson Tiger arrow, formed by Xiao Shi's Natal Martial Blood, immediately struck the Blood Martial Realm Servant with a whistle, piercing straight through him from the front.

Boom!!

With a huge explosion, the Blood Martial Realm Servant's body directly shattered and exploded, turning into a sky full of minced flesh and broken bones.

Xiao Shi then raised his hand and grabbed, retrieving the Blood Seal from the opponent's body, along with his remaining Natal Martial Blood.

The Natal Martial Blood still needed to be refined, but the Blood Seal instantly merged into Xiao Shi's Natal Martial Blood, bringing him a great degree of enhancement.

This enhancement… was completely comparable to his refinement of Natal Martial Blood!

To some extent, it was even superior to the refinement of Natal Martial Blood.

This also made Xiao Shi deeply feel the power of the Blood Seal.

"As expected of a growth-type Heaven-Rank Secret Technique!"

Xiao Shi's heart was filled with emotion.

Among his many current methods, the Secret Skill, Blood Seal, was the strongest method!

And the benefits brought by the Blood Seal were far more than just the absorption of Natal Martial Blood.

Preventing the opponent from detonating their Natal Martial Blood was even more crucial.

Otherwise, once he encountered a Blood Martial Realm martial artist who couldn't be instantly killed, and if the opponent detonated their Natal Martial Blood, it would be very troublesome for Xiao Shi.

Now with the Blood Seal, he no longer needed to worry about this problem.

Whoosh!

Xiao Shi stepped forward and picked up the opponent's belongings after his death, as well as the items he dropped.

Then, in the flying state of the Martial Emperor Shoulder Armor, he ascended into the sky, flying towards the other Blood Martial Realm Servants at an extremely fast speed.

Through the Blood Seals on their bodies, Xiao Shi could clearly sense the location of each of them.

And now, after Xiao Shi continuously absorbed their Natal Martial Blood with the Blood Seals, these Blood Martial Realm Servants had all lost their ability to escape.

They tried every possible way to solve this problem, but no matter what methods they used or what treasures they employed, it was all ineffective.

The Natal Martial Blood in their bodies uncontrollably drained away.

For those Two-Blood Blood Warrior Realm martial artists who possessed two Natal Martial Bloods, the situation was slightly better.

But for the First Blood Blood Martial Realm martial artists who only had one Natal Martial Blood, it was a complete disaster.

With the loss of their Natal Martial Blood, they became increasingly weak, and their cultivation began to regress, subtly showing signs of reverting to the Qi Martial Realm.

At this moment, Xiao Shi descended from the sky, beginning to harvest their lives.

These First Blood Blood Martial Realm martial artists, in this state, were no match for Xiao Shi at all, and were easily annihilated by him.

The Two-Blood Blood Warrior Realm martial artists, though capable of resistance, were also unable to withstand Xiao Shi when he used the Blood Weapon, Blood Shadow Sky Bow.

At the same time, the presence of the Blood Seal prevented them from detonating the Natal Martial Blood within their bodies.

In addition, after Xiao Shi understood the power of the Blood Vein Finger, he did not continue to use it during combat, but instead used the Blood Vein Finger for finishing blows… This way, he could continuously increase its power through the kills caused by the Blood Vein Finger.

Puff!

Xiao Shi now saw that when he killed a First Blood Blood Martial Realm Servant with the Blood Vein Finger, streaks of blood-colored light immediately appeared from the Blood Martial Realm Servant's body.

These blood-colored lights continuously converged into his finger, causing a faint blood-colored pattern to appear on his finger.

This pattern was clearly the mark that could enhance the Blood Vein Finger.

The more patterns there were, and the deeper the color, the more powerful the Blood Vein Finger would become.

When Xiao Shi killed all these Blood Martial Realm Servants with the Blood Vein Finger, the patterns on his finger had already become much clearer, and its power had also increased significantly from before.
