Chapter 1055, The Powerful Blood Beast

Translator: Silavin

 

*Rumble…*

 

As that dark red blood sword materialised, an indescribably terrifying murderous aura suddenly erupted.

 

Heaven and Earth changed colour. Qin Yichen could clearly feel that the originally peaceful Elf Forest, in this moment, that atmosphere vanished completely. The World Energy throughout Heaven and Earth converged, gathering towards that dark red blood sword’s location at an extremely alarming speed.

 

That appearance was as if some terrifying entity had been awakened.

 

The Blood Beastmen Race was extremely bloodthirsty and fond of slaughter. After they cultivated to have a Human Form, all their Bloodline Power would be gathered in the spike on their backs, which was a location analogous to a Human’s Dantian.

 

Even more terrifying was that the Blood Beastmen Race possessed an innate special ability, where they could nurture their Lifebound Weapon!

 

Whether through arduous cultivation or slaughter, they could cultivate and strengthen their Lifebound Weapon. This was an advantage that made countless Races green with envy, and also one of the foundations allowing the Blood Beastmen Race, despite their brutality, to establish themselves on the continent!

 

Amongst the same tier, Blood Beastmen, relying on their Lifebound Weapons, could often suppress other Races.

 

Of course, this Lifebound Weapon was not without weaknesses.

 

When confronting experts whose cultivation realms exceeded theirs, Blood Beastmen were easily targeted. Once the Lifebound Weapon was damaged, their actual bodies would also suffer severe injuries!

 

Moreover, if the Lifebound Weapon got destroyed, they too would perish.

 

Naturally, under ordinary circumstances, even weapons forged by the Dwarf Race, renowned for their skills in forging, could not necessarily inflict any harm upon Blood Beastmen’ Lifebound Weapons. Let alone destroying a Lifebound Weapon. To accomplish this step, it required surpassing the Blood Beastman by at least one Major Realm!

 

For instance, this Blood Beastman Captain before him. To destroy his Lifebound Weapon, without some special means, even ordinary Saints could not accomplish this.

 

“Big Brother Qin, quickly flee! This is the Blood Beastmen Race’s Lifebound Weapon! You’re no match for him!”

 

Upon seeing that blood sword, Avril’s pretty face turned deathly pale. Regarding the Blood Beastmen Race, she understood them fairly well. Originally, that Captain’s cultivation realm already suppressed Qin Yichen. Now, he had even manifested his Lifebound Weapon without the slightest reservation.

 

They simply stood no chance!

 

“Flee? It’s already too late to leave now!” The Blood Beastman Captain laughed sinisterly. His Blood Beastmen had already spread out, watching Qin Yichen’s trio like Tigers eyeing their prey, merely awaiting the Captain’s command before they would swarm forward!

 

“Since you wish to wade into these muddy waters, then leave your life behind!” The Blood Beastman Captain shouted sternly, his arm sweeping as he grasped the sword single-handedly, pointing it at Qin Yichen.

 

He no longer intended to delay further. He would use absolute strength to wash away the humiliation earlier!

 

Immediately, the ferocious expression on the Blood Beastman Captain’s face gradually subsided. Upon his left hand, profound seals transformed with lightning speed.

 

As the seals in his hand transformed, that blood sword trembled slightly, causing the originally churning World Energy in this space to surge even more violently.

 

Simultaneously, a formidable fluctuation that moved one’s heart swept forth from his body like blood-sea waves. A bone-chilling murderous aura suffused throughout the forest.

 

“That seal…”

 

The Blood Beastman Captain’s movements immediately drew the gazes of numerous Blood Beastmen. Watching the seal technique in his hands, astonishment surfaced in these Blood Beastmen’ eyes.

 

“That’s the Bloodlust Seal!”

 

“The Captain actually values this guy so highly?”

 

Numerous Blood Beastmen were clearly familiar with this seal. Within the Blood Beastmen Race, this technique also ranked as an extremely advanced martial technique. When executed, it could multiply the strength of the Lifebound Weapon!

 

However, this seal technique also carried some aftereffects. So, their Captain using this with such caution truly filled them with astonishment.

 

“One capable of becoming a Blood Beastman Captain truly isn’t someone to be trifled with.”

 

Watching the Blood Beastman Captain whose momentum had become somewhat terrifyingly formidable, Qin Yichen’s expression also grew slightly solemn. In that exchange earlier, the Captain’s strength was already considerable. Now, he had even deployed such a powerful martial technique.

 

“To die beneath my Lifebound Weapon, you can take sufficient pride in that!” The Blood Beastman Captain hovered above the forest. The blood sword upon his arm had now become massive. Within that blood colour so dense it approached dark crimson, something resembling a colossal skull seemed to lurk.

 

The next instant, a savage smile suddenly curved at the corner of his mouth. Then, with a wave of his arm, the blood sword’s tip abruptly pointed towards Qin Yichen.

 

*Boom!* Following the Blood Beastman Captain’s movement, majestic Yuan Energy rapidly condensed. Beneath the blood sword, a massive skull manifestation swiftly coalesced.

 

As this skull manifestation appeared, everyone’s ears seemed to fill with chilling wolf-howls and ghost-wails. Even within its hollow eye sockets, clusters of demonic blood-coloured flames flickered.

 

*Crack crack!*

 

This skull manifestation, as if possessing intelligence, roared towards Qin Yichen before shooting forth with a howl. Like dragging an entire blood river, it streaked across Heaven, carrying a fluctuation that seemed capable of corroding everything, sweeping viciously towards Qin Yichen.

 

*Boom!* Under this fluctuation, the forest below began collapsing. Countless towering trees shattered. The sky was full of wood chips, upon touching that fluctuation, they all melted, as if becoming part of the blood river trailing behind the skull manifestation.

 

This destructive power caused numerous Blood Beastmen’ expressions to freeze, their hearts unable to suppress secret admiration for their Captain’s formidable strength. Then, they turned their gazes, tinged with mockery, towards Qin Yichen.

 

However, the moment their gazes shifted over, they discovered with astonishment that facing their Captain’s alarming offensive, not only did Qin Yichen show no intention of evading whatsoever, he actually stomped his foot and shot upward. This was a posture seemingly intent on meeting it head-on!

 

“Seeking death!” Witnessing this scene, the hearts of numerous Blood Beastmen immediately sneered inwardly.

 

Their Captain’s strike would force even Late Stage Martial Ancestors to temporarily avoid its edge. Qin Yichen, with his mere Early Stage Martial Ancestor Realm, actually still dared to directly resist it.

 

Wasn’t this seeking death?

 

However, they did not understand that Qin Yichen had no room to retreat. If he did not forcibly receive this attack, Little Ling’er and Avril would certainly be caught by it.

 

Even if he expended all his strength carrying both to evade, he would inevitably fall into infinite passivity within that situation. At that time, the Blood Beastman Captain certainly would not grant him the slightest respite.
