The Butcher had already used seventy of his seventy-two saber strikes, and only had two left.
And yet, Ling Xiao only had a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth. He didn't seem to be seriously injured.
There was no way he was going to die.
The Butcher had a feeling that Ling Xiao was getting stronger and stronger.
At first, he had been able to send Ling Xiao flying. But now, he was only able to push him back two or three steps.
"Scared?"
Ling Xiao said mockingly.
"Scared? Why would I be scared? You're nothing but a piece of trash who can only defend. Why would I be scared?
My Blood Saber Technique, and my two most powerful attacks, are enough to kill you! "
The Butcher was terrified, but at the same time, he didn't want to leave. He was worried that Ling Xiao was just bluffing.
Who knew if he was actually on the verge of death?
He had been in a similar situation before, but at that time, he had been the one bluffing.
After his opponent left, he slumped to the ground, paralyzed.
He suspected that Ling Xiao was in the same situation.
Pretending to be weak didn't seem to be a problem. In fact, he even seemed to be getting stronger.
In fact, he was so weak that he couldn't get any weaker.
Therefore, he didn't want to leave. If he left, he wouldn't be able to complete his mission. What if experts from Soul Hall came looking for him?
At the thought of this, he gritted his teeth and released an even more powerful aura from his body.
The blood-red light almost enveloped his entire body.
"Blood Saber Technique, seventy-first Saber Strike – Merciless Blood Buddha!"
Suddenly, the image of a blood-red Buddha appeared in front of the Butcher.
Butcher roared, and his attack was already launched.
RUMBLE!
This attack was even more powerful than the previous ones. However, the terrifying pressure caused Ling Xiao to break through the final shackle.
Second level Black Tortoise Godbody, complete!
The Black Tortoise Godbody had finally reached the mid King-Class.
Not only that, but Demonic Tribulation Lightning also appeared.
It merged with the lightning of the Lesser Myriad Lightning Immortal-Slaying Formation, so no one noticed.
However, Ling Xiao knew that he was on the verge of a breakthrough.
Once he passed this tribulation, he would be a seventh level Lifeseizer.
At that point, this piece of trash in front of him wouldn't be a problem at all.
However, during the Tribulation Transcendence, one could not fight. One could only hide.
Fortunately, he had the Absolute Frost Domain and Blizzard Ice Sealing Steps, which could be put to good use.
"Blood Blade Blade Technique, 72nd Blade — Boundless Blood Sea!"
Even more frenzied attacks were launched.
Even the water in Xuanwu Lake was stirred up.
The waves and the blood-red light merged into one, turning into a huge blood-red saber that slashed down at Ling Xiao.
Butcher also noticed that Ling Xiao was about to break through.
He absolutely could not let this happen.
It was already very difficult for him to defeat Ling Xiao now. If he allowed Ling Xiao to break through, wouldn't it be even more difficult?
Therefore, he had the intention of risking his life with this strike.
Even if he was struck by the demonic lightning in the sky, he would still kill Ling Xiao.
It had to be said that this guy's luck was extremely good. Despite his ferocious attacks, he wasn't hit by a single bolt of demonic lightning.
Almost all the demonic lightning landed on Ling Xiao's body and continuously tempered Ling Xiao's body.
"Just as my Yuan Venerate Master said, the stronger a martialist's power is, the more heaven-defying it is, and the more unreasonable it is, the stronger the Lightning Tribulation will be.
The possibility of death is very high.
However, the benefits obtained once a breakthrough are huge. "
It had to be known that the tempering effect of so many lightning strikes was extremely good for one's body.
Ling Xiao even discovered that his King-Grade Black Tortoise Divine Body seemed to have started to improve once again.
The King-Grade Black Tortoise Divine Body's completion rate was actually rising continuously under this terrifying Lightning Tribulation.
Although it wasn't as fast as the Black Tortoise Armor Bone, it was still improving.
Suddenly, Butcher's attack arrived.
Ling Xiao simply couldn't resist.
However, dodging wasn't a problem for him at all.
"Blizzard Ice Sealing Steps!"
As Ling Xiao uttered these few words, the surroundings were instantly filled with snow and wind.
Ling Xiao's figure was faintly discernible. In an instant, he had already changed positions.
Butcher also suddenly discovered that his attack speed and movement speed had slowed down, which was really awkward.
His powerful attack landed directly on the surface of the lake and didn't cause the slightest bit of damage to Ling Xiao.
The Butcher was completely dumbfounded.
"No! What kind of strange movement technique is this? How can this be? He clearly couldn't dodge in front of me. "
Butcher stood there, forgetting to attack.
"There are many things in this world that you don't know. A fool actually dares to try and kill me for some money.
Get lost. I can spare your life on account of the fact that you helped me break through my cultivation base today.
Don't be stubborn. Otherwise, I won't show you any mercy. "
Ling Xiao naturally wasn't afraid of Butcher. However, he was still in the process of breaking through, so he couldn't attack.
He might as well let Butcher off and let Darkfrost follow him to see who had sent him.
"Bullshit! You're a trifling sixth division Lifeseizer. Even if you break through, you'll only be in the seventh division. How dare you talk to me like that?
Do you really think I can't kill you? "
Butcher clearly felt insulted.
His cultivation base was so weak, and yet he dared to look down on him. If that wasn't insulting, then what was?
Enraged, Butcher once again unleashed his blood-saber technique.
Perhaps it was because he was enraged, but the saber technique seemed even more powerful than before.
Unfortunately, its accuracy was far from perfect.
"You're in the middle of a tribulation, brat. I refuse to believe that you were lucky enough to escape the first time, let alone the second time!"
Of course, one of the reasons Butcher refused to leave was because Ling Xiao was in the middle of a tribulation.
Not only was a person in the middle of a tribulation extremely weak, they could also be injured.
This was the perfect opportunity for him to kill Ling Xiao.
Blood-colored saber light once again enveloped Ling Xiao, one saber strike after another.
And yet, Butcher's heart was as cold as ice.
That was because, as soon as he got close to Ling Xiao, he felt as if he were being frozen solid by a terrifying frigid energy.
Although he could still move, both his attacks and his movements were incredibly slow.
His entire body was covered with ice crystals.
All he could do was watch as Ling Xiao slowly walked past him.
Obviously, he wasn't moving very quickly, but there was nothing he could do.
"What kind of bizarre movement technique is that? How could there be something like that in the world? "
Butcher's eyes flickered not with fear, but with greed.
"If I could get a movement technique like that, I'd be so much stronger. Not to mention anything else, I'd be able to hunt for life crystals much faster!"
Human greed was more terrifying than anything else.
It could take over all other emotions.
Butcher had been preparing to flee.
However, at that moment, he took out a strange medicinal pill and swallowed it.
It had been given to him by one of the experts from the Hall of Souls, who had said that if anything went wrong, he could swallow it, and his strength would increase by at least two or three times.
The Butcher felt that it was time to consume the elixir.
