In the crowd, the Butcher was also watching the scene unfold above Xuanwu Lake. He couldn't help but gape.
This wasn't something an ordinary cultivator could do.
But after a while, he calmed down. "This scene is probably caused by his martial soul.
The more he acts like this, the more it shows that he's strong on the outside but weak on the inside. It seems like it's time for me to make a move. "
He guessed that Ling Xiao was busy dealing with the Whale Gang and hadn't noticed him.
He sped up and dove into Xuanwu Lake. True essence wrapped around his body, and he released his martial soul.
The Butcher's martial soul was a blade.
A blood-red blade.
It was a very unconventional blade martial soul.
When it was released, the air was filled with the smell of blood.
But because of the chaos at Xuanwu Lake, the smell of blood was masked by the smell of fish. Ling Xiao wouldn't be able to detect it.
This was why the Butcher dared to release his martial soul.
But when he was about a hundred meters away from Ling Xiao, a figure suddenly emerged from the water.
The Butcher stopped in his tracks and looked at the figure in front of him in shock. Wasn't this the target of his mission?
"You're also here to kill me?"
Ling Xiao asked coldly.
"Haha, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. I'm just here to check out the situation."
The Butcher laughed.
"Is that so? It seems like I've misunderstood you. "
Ling Xiao shook his head and turned to leave.
"This is the chance!"
The Butcher hadn't expected that Ling Xiao would believe his words so easily. He saw Ling Xiao turn his back on him.
Thinking that his chance had come, he charged forward.
The steel blade in his hand, infused with the power of his martial soul, stabbed into Ling Xiao's body.
But in the next moment, the Butcher was stunned.
It didn't feel like he was stabbing into a person's body. It felt more like he was stabbing into water.
Splash!
The figure scattered, turning into waves and falling into the lake.
On the other side, another figure appeared.
It was Ling Xiao again.
"You're really here to kill me. Who sent you?"
Ling Xiao's voice was cold. "Tell me who's behind this, and I can spare your life."
"Brat, you are indeed cunning to be able to form a water clone. However, the more you do this, the weaker your strength is.
He could only rely on this trick to save his life.
At first, I was afraid of you. But now, do you want to know who's behind this?
In your dreams! "
Butcher sneered, and the blood-red Sword Soul behind him became even brighter.
"Hehe, actually, even if you don't tell me, I can guess a little.
I haven't been in the Green Zone for long, and I've only offended a few people.
Those who could hire assassins were probably people from Soul Palace.
Yama? Or Medicine Demon? "
Ling Xiao smiled faintly.
Seeing Ling Xiao's fearless expression, Butcher couldn't help but frown.
He didn't know if this kid was really unafraid or just bluffing, but he felt that things might be more troublesome than he had imagined.
"I don't know!"
Butcher shook his head. "You don't need to know because you're about to die!"
After saying that, he charged at Ling Xiao again.
This Butcher was indeed someone who dared to hunt monsters in a group of monsters. His movements were smooth and fast.
Like a ferocious demonic beast, he arrived in front of Ling Xiao in an instant.
His Sword Light was filled with murderous intent.
Blood bloomed. This Sword Light was aimed at Ling Xiao's neck.
Butcher loved to cut his opponents into pieces.
Be it monsters or martial artists, he liked this method because he felt that it was more violent and more in line with his aesthetics.
"Interesting!
Then I'll use you as a practice partner.
Your strength is much stronger than Yao Chen's. "
Ling Xiao saw Butcher's strength. Not only was he not afraid, but he was also very excited.
It was not easy to meet such an opponent.
He didn't use his Beast Soul Transformation. Instead, he raised his sword and blocked Butcher's attack.
Boom!
The tyrannical attack caused Ling Xiao to sink into the depths of the water.
Ling Xiao could feel that the cultivation barrier in his body was gradually being torn apart.
"Nice one. Again!"
He said, rising to his feet. Smiling, he looked at Butcher.
"Oh? You're pretty good, aren't you? But do you dare to block my next move?
Bloodblade Saber Technique: Bloodlight Calamity! "
Butcher could sense Ling Xiao's strength. Just as the Soul Hall expert had said, he was in the sixth division of Lifeseizing.
The only difference was that his defenses were a bit stronger.
In that case, Butcher had nothing to fear. Even if Bai Xiaochun was a turtle shell, he would shatter it.
The steel saber in his hand transformed into a terrifying beam of blood-colored light.
The beam of blood-colored light was four or five meters long, and it slashed toward Ling Xiao's waist.
His Blood Blade Saber Technique was extremely terrifying. Usually, he would use it to fight monsters or warriors.
It was a move that was incomparably powerful.
It was incomparably ferocious.
Many of the martial artists who sensed his bloodthirsty killing intent were so frightened that their legs went weak. They simply couldn't stand up to him.
"Incredible!"
Ling Xiao sighed in admiration. "That's how it is. The stronger you are, the better. Otherwise, you won't be able to pique my interest."
"Bullshit!"
Butcher raged. Not only was Bai Xiaochun not afraid of his powerful attack, he was even criticizing it. Butcher's pride was hurt.
Butcher was a man who cared a lot about face.
Boom! Boom!
Ling Xiao casually slashed out with his sword. Although it wasn't as powerful as Butcher's, it was extremely accurate.
It blocked the ferocious saber strike.
Terrifying power surged out from the saber, piercing through Revered Ice Sword.
Ling Xiao was once again sent flying backward.
The cracks in his cultivation base barrier were even wider now.
Ling Xiao also realized something else.
That was the Black Tortoise Oracle Bone that he had been holding in his left hand. When he was being beaten, the speed at which it shrank became even faster.
Massive amounts of Xuanwu power poured out of the Oracle Bone into his body.
His king-class Xuanwu Divine Body was rapidly growing stronger.
"Mid king-class Xuanwu Divine Body. Completion rate: five percent! Again! "
Originally, Ling Xiao planned to complete the king-class Xuanwu Divine Body through cultivation.
However, in a battle, the speed of improvement would be faster.
"Your defense is really strong. But if it's just defense, I'll make sure you die a horrible death."
Butcher stopped talking nonsense.
There were a total of seventy-two saber strikes in the Blood Saber Technique.
He kept attacking Ling Xiao, not giving Ling Xiao any chance to breathe.
He didn't believe that Ling Xiao would still be alive after seventy-two saber strikes.
"Mid king-class Xuanwu Divine Body. Completion rate: ten percent!"
"Mid king-class Xuanwu Divine Body. Completion rate: twenty percent!"
…
"Mid king-class Xuanwu Divine Body. Completion rate: ninety percent!"
Ling Xiao was bleeding from the corner of his mouth. The Xuanwu Oracle Bone in his hand had completely disappeared.
His Mid king-class Xuanwu Divine Body was close to completion.
On the other side, Butcher's expression had changed drastically, and he was panting heavily.
Ling Xiao, on the other hand, seemed to be safe and sound.
