Zhongli Jie, who had slashed the air with his sword, was greatly alarmed. He didn't expect the Blood Demon to make such a move, and it was impossible to guard against it. He could imagine what the Blood Demon was trying to do by sneaking behind him. Who else could it be other than targeting Niu Youde?
In a moment of desperation, he flipped his hand and pulled the flying sword out from under his ribs.
The manifested blood demon spun around like a flower, slashing apart the flying swords with a single slash, then continued to charge towards Miao Yi.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Miao Yi, who was chewing on a piece of Glorious Star immortal herb and swallowing it, was shocked as well. His expression darkened, and he quickly came to a stop. He slowly raised the spear in his hand to meet the enemy. Although it seemed slow, the spear's body left a trail of afterimages in its wake, but in reality, its speed was extremely fast. The tip of the spear seemed to be pointing forward in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, it was pointing straight at the blood demon charging towards him.
Zhongli Kuai quickly turned around and chased after Blood Demon. However, Blood Demon, who had caught up to him in an instant, had a surprised look on her face. She noticed that Miao Yi's entire aura seemed to have changed in an instant. Miao Yi raised the spear in his hand, and it was as though his entire being had become one with the spear in his hand. Miao Yi's gaze was deep, unfathomable, and calm as he stared at her. His expression was unperturbed, and it felt as though an aura was about to erupt at any moment.
For a moment, the Blood Demon thought he had misjudged Miao Yi. He had never seen Miao Yi in this state before.
Did he know that he couldn't escape and was prepared to fight with his life on the line? The Blood Demon's eyes glinted with excitement. She didn't think much of Miao Yi at all. In a flash, she arrived before him and slashed with her saber.
"Get out of the way!" Zhongli Kuai shouted in alarm.
"Kill!" Miao Yi abruptly let out a furious roar. His voice was accompanied by the ripples of transcendence energy that spread throughout the vast universe. He instantly ignited the essence, energy, and spirit that he had raised to its peak, and released all the transcendence energy he had condensed from his entire body in an instant.
The golden armor and the golden spear shone with purple light at the same time. In an instant, gorgeous flowers bloomed. It was like the golden rays of the rising sun on the horizon. It was like the purple clouds that came from the east when the sun rose.
One shot, two shots, three shots, four shots …
Spear after spear, spear after spear, pierced out, swallowing and spitting. His speed was indescribably fast and dazzling.
Ten kills with a single spear. Miao Yi had never used this move even when he was at the Purple Lotus realm. When a Golden Lotus cultivator attacked, even Miao Yi himself didn't know how powerful it was. He only knew that it was so fast that no one could see it clearly. On the tip of the spear, there was actually a black dot the size of a soybean. It looked like a black pearl. As it spun, it was like a black hole that had shrunk countless times.
For the first strike, the Mandarin Duck Blood Saber slashed at the spearhead. The difference in cultivation between the two was obvious, and the Mandarin Duck Blood Saber was sharp. The spearhead was sliced away like a knife cutting through tofu.
The flying spearhead was still as fast as before, and it shot right at Zhongli Kuai, who was pouncing on him from behind. But Zhongli Kuai did not take it seriously. He casually swung his broadsword and hit the bean-sized black dot on the spearhead.
Boom! There was a loud sound. The broadsword in Zhongli Kuai's hand was nearly knocked out of his grip, and his arm was numb from the impact. His dashing figure was pushed back several dozen feet by the impact.
Zhongli Kuai abruptly looked at Miao Yi, his eyes filled with shock. He couldn't understand what was going on.
Without the spearhead, the Golden Spear lost all its light and lost the original might of a Fourth Grade Treasure Spear. The soybean-sized black dot on the spearhead also disappeared.
However, even Miao Yi himself couldn't control this strike, and the attack continued.
The Blood Demon's arm was also a little numb from the impact. He looked at Miao Yi in disbelief, not expecting the might of Miao Yi's spear to be so terrifying.
She didn't even have the time to pull back her saber. The second strike was already upon her, and she couldn't dodge it in time. Miao Yi's spear was simply too fast, so fast that it was almost pressing down on her at the same time. Hastily, the Blood Demon swept out with his other blood saber. Crack! The spear shaft was once again knocked away.
When the third strike came, she couldn't dodge it no matter what. She turned pale with fright, and couldn't figure out what was going on. Why was there no end to such a fast spear technique? She didn't dare to face it head-on anymore, and quickly transformed into ten bloody shadows before exploding.
Following closely behind the ten bloody shadows were eight streaks of light. The ten bloody shadows exploded almost at the same time, and the eight streaks of light shot out like eight arrows. Before the ten bloody shadows could completely disperse, the eight streaks of light had already hit their targets one by one.
Only two of the bloody shadows managed to escape. Out of the other eight streaks of light, seven collapsed after being stabbed, and the last one was the Blood Demon. "Ugh …" She let out a pained groan. The spear had struck her in her sensitive spot — her buttocks!
Her Great Blood Escape Art didn't allow her to transform into ten people at the same time. Instead, it was a kind of illusion technique that made it hard for others to tell which was real and which was fake, and her real body was hidden in one of them. Miao Yi didn't know which of the ten bloody shadows was her real body. It was just that with the eight spear strikes covering the area, the probability of hitting her was extremely high.
However, this was still enough to make things difficult for the Blood Demon. Even though she had chopped off the spearhead, the spear shaft had been sliced off diagonally by her. The part of the spear shaft that had been sliced out was extremely sharp. It wouldn't be a problem for it to stab into her buttocks.
What terrified the Blood Demon even more was that there was something on the spear shaft that easily pierced through her Blood Energy Shield. When it stabbed into her buttocks, a wave of heat entered her body amidst the intense pain. She was very sensitive to changes in blood, and immediately realized that something was wrong. There was something strange about the other party's spear.
On the other side, Zhongli Kuai had already slashed at her with a flying sword.
In a moment of desperation, the Blood Demon flipped his hand and struck out with a massive blood palm. The Demonic Blood Palm struck Miao Yi, who was already exhausted. At this moment, Miao Yi had already let go of the attack and crossed his arms to protect his face.
'Boom!' Miao Yi looked up and spat out a mouthful of blood. The Golden Armor on his body had completely lost its luster, and his entire body was sent flying.
Clanging sounds could be heard. Zhongli Kuai and the Blood Demon were already engaged in a furious battle. Miao Yi wouldn't have been injured, but the spear tip that had been sliced off had caused an accident, causing Zhongli Kuai to arrive a little late. He wasn't able to save Miao Yi in time, and Miao Yi took an extra hit.
After exchanging a few blows, the Blood Demon's eyes flashed with fear. It seemed like she was no longer in the mood to continue fighting. Before she could show any signs of defeat, she once again transformed into ten bloody shadows and shot away.
Zhongli Kuai immediately tried his luck and chased after one of the bloody shadows. Once again, the ten bloody shadows exploded into ten bloody shadows, scattering into the depths of the starry sky.
Faced with such a situation, Zhongli Kuai was at a loss. He watched as the bloody shadows flew away, not knowing which one to chase.
However, now wasn't the time to think about this. He quickly turned around and dashed away, chasing after Miao Yi, who was flying away in the weightless starry sky.
He caught up to Miao Yi and grabbed his arm. He looked at Miao Yi with an inexplicable gaze. He had seen Miao Yi's stunning spear strike with his own eyes, and found it a little hard to believe.
Seeing Miao Yi's dull eyes, pale face, and exhausted expression, Zhongli Kuai immediately invoked his arts to examine Miao Yi's injuries.
In the end, he discovered that Miao Yi's injuries weren't too serious. After all, this brat had a habit of staying alive. Before the fight even started, he had already put on his armor just in case. The Celestial Court Armor wasn't something to be trifled with, and its defensive capabilities were pretty good. It was unlikely that the Blood Demon's palm strike would break through Miao Yi's Celestial Court Armor. If it had been a real attack, Miao Yi would probably have died.
As for his injuries, it was thanks to this brat's old habit of staying alive. He had already consumed the immortal herb and was prepared to get injured. The Glorious Star immortal herb in his body was already taking effect, so his injuries should be healed soon. Moreover, the Blood Fiend Palm's power wouldn't be able to do anything to this brat.
The only thing that made Zhongli Kuai frown was that Miao Yi's transcendence energy was almost depleted, and his essence, Qi, and spirit were so dispirited that it was frightening. It was as if all his energy had been sucked out in an instant. His entire person was like a walking corpse, and it didn't seem like he was injured at all. Zhongli Kuai couldn't help asking, "Is this condition the reason you used that spear strike just now?"
Miao Yi's breathing was weak, and he cracked a smile. He asked weakly, "Where's the Blood Demon?"
At the mention of this, Zhongli Kuai blushed with shame and said, "I'm ashamed to say this. Even you, a First Grade Golden Lotus cultivator, managed to injure her. Yet I let her escape unscathed."
Miao Yi smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew his own situation very well. He was no match for the Blood Demon, and the Blood Demon simply didn't know what was going on. If the Blood Demon hadn't used his saber to slash at his spear, and had instead used his spear to deflect it, then with the Blood Demon's cultivation base, he would have been able to send his spear flying. He wouldn't have been able to use the Single Spear Ten Kills technique at all, and there was a high possibility that he would have fallen into the Blood Demon's hands. If he were to face the Blood Demon again in the future, and the Blood Demon had already suffered a loss, he probably wouldn't be able to do it again.
"Big Beard, there's no need to blame yourself. That demon's Great Blood Evasion Art is truly powerful. It's normal that she managed to escape." Miao Yi chuckled weakly as he consoled Zhongli Kuai. His life was in the other party's hands now, and he didn't have the slightest ability to resist.
Zhongli Kuai shook his head and asked suspiciously, "There's something fishy about this. She didn't suffer any serious injuries. Since she dared to charge at us and fight it out with the Great Blood Evasion Art, why did she escape without showing any signs of defeat?"
Miao Yi chuckled weakly and said, "It's simple. I retaliated with an eye for an eye. She poisoned me, and I did the same to her. There was poison on my spear. If she didn't run away, once the poison took effect, she wouldn't have been able to escape even if she wanted to. She would have definitely died by your hands."
Zhongli Kuai was taken aback. Realization dawned on him and he said, "I see! Can you poison her to death? "
"I don't know!" Miao Yi wasn't willing to reveal the truth. It wasn't a good thing to let others know that he had a poison that he couldn't neutralize. However, he reckoned that the Blood Demon was definitely going to die this time. He had yet to see anyone who could escape from the Invisible Flames. Putting his life on the line, he finally managed to get rid of this potential threat.
When he heard the word 'I don't know', Zhongli Kuai felt it was a pity. He asked again, "What was with that spear of yours just now? The black dot on the tip of the spear was actually so powerful. It almost knocked the sword out of my hand."
Miao Yi noticed it himself, but at the time, he was so focused on attacking with his spear that he didn't have the time to think about it. Now that he thought about it, it was also his first time discovering it. He had never seen the Single Spear Ten Kills before. He shook his head and said, "It's also my first time discovering it."
Seeing that Miao Yi was so exhausted that his eyes were about to close, Zhongli Kuai didn't ask any more questions. "It's easy to recover transcendence energy, but you'll have to take it slow. I'm afraid you'll need to sleep for a while before you can recover. I'll put you into the beast sack to rest. I believe you'll be fully recovered by the time we get back to the Skytraversing Palace."
Normally, no one would be willing to be put into a beast sack unless they absolutely trusted someone. Otherwise, if the other party did anything to them, they would have to die. However, their current situation wasn't much better than being put into a beast sack. Miao Yi could only nod slightly. He had no choice but to agree.
