Whoosh!
The black fog formed by the dark energy quickly pressed towards the Spirit Race person. The Spirit Race person knew that the dark energy would not be very strong and stable everywhere, so he immediately swung his sword again. Immediately, a blood-red light appeared. It was a hundred feet long and cut the dark energy in half, creating a hole in the middle that was ten feet wide!
Lu An could naturally sense the sword qi and could dodge it. However, the Spirit Race person immediately formed a large amount of death energy around him that could resist the dark energy and forcefully push it away. Lu An would not be entangled in this kind of confrontation with the Spirit Race person. He only wanted to get close to him. As for the dark energy, he could not maintain such a large area of stability. He only needed to maintain the dark energy on the surface of his body so that he could move at any time.
Whoosh!
After dodging the sword qi, Lu An took the initiative to rush out of the dark energy and rushed towards the Spirit Race person! The distance between the two sides was less than twenty feet. The Spirit Race person completely gave up on the idea of attacking in advance. Otherwise, it would give Lu An an opportunity. A person's most vulnerable moment was when they did not attack. As long as they attacked, there would be a flaw. No matter who it was, even Lu An was the same.
Lu An held the Sky Piercing Golden Dagger in his right hand and closed in without the Spirit Race person stopping him! Lu An did not activate the Demon Gods Realm to the maximum. He was in the normal state of the Demon Gods Realm. The Spirit Race person was the same. However, the Spirit Race person's injuries were more serious. The difference in strength between the two was almost the same as before the Blood Sacrifice, even if Lu An was in the normal state of the Demon Gods. Although the Spirit Race person was fast, his range of movement was small in such a close distance. Lu An could clearly see him.
Whoosh!
The Spirit Race individual was the first to stab out with his sword. Unlike his previous horizontal slash, the reason he attacked first was simple. His sword had its own optimal attack range. He could not allow Lu An to get close to him, so he had no choice but to attack first to prevent Lu An from getting close.
The sword stabbed towards the center of Lu An's chest. The goal was to make it difficult for Lu An to dodge. However, Lu An did not choose to dodge at all. Instead, he raised his right hand and swung the dagger directly on the sword blade!
Ding!
The sword was sent flying towards the Spirit Race individual's right side. At the same time, the Spirit Race individual retreated with all his might to prevent Lu An from closing in too quickly. He immediately pulled back his sword and slashed towards Lu An's neck!
Ding!
Lu An held the dagger in his right hand in front of his body to block the sword. Not only that, but he also charged forward, forcefully using the dagger to block the opponent's sword and pushing the sword towards the Spirit Race individual's body!
Because the Spirit Race individual had slashed his sword to the left, he could only use the strength of his wrist. Lu An, on the other hand, had used the strength of his entire arm and his momentum. In addition, the Spirit Race individual's sword was much stronger than the Spirit Race individual's dagger. Using the same amount of strength required to support the Spirit Race individual's body, so he was no match for Lu An's strength! Instead, the sword was aimed at his neck, as if he was going to cut his own throat!
When the Spirit Race individual saw this, he immediately threw out a punch towards Lu An's chest. He wanted to force Lu An back and regain control of his sword. No matter what, he didn't want to give up on his sword. In everyone's minds, having a weapon was better than not having one. If it was difficult to deal with Lu An even with a weapon, it would be even more difficult to deal with him if he lost his weapon.
Perhaps that was the truth, but if Lu An was faced with this situation, he would definitely let go of his sword without hesitation and use both hands to fight in close combat. Otherwise, forcefully holding onto his sword would be equivalent to crippling one of his arms.
Lu An did not take the punch head-on. Otherwise, he would indeed be forced to retreat when the two fists collided. Instead, he instantly dodged to the side, allowing the punch to graze past his blood-stained clothes. Even half of his blood-stained clothes were torn. At the same time, Lu An's left hand grabbed the Spirit Race individual's left wrist. His right hand, which was holding the dagger in a reverse grip, immediately plunged it towards the Spirit Race individual's collarbone!
In the clash between the dagger and the sword, Lu An held the initiative. Lu An could stop whenever he wanted, and the Spirit Race individual didn't have any warning at all. The Spirit Race individual's sword, which had forcefully resisted the dagger, immediately felt a sense of misdirection. The Spirit Race individual swung his sword outwards, but Lu An had already leaned over. However, the Spirit Race individual had no way of dodging the Cleaving Sky Dagger's descent!
At the same time, the dark energy around Lu An's body stabilized, preparing to teleport at a moment's notice.
It's over!
The Spirit Race individual's body immediately went cold. He stared at the dagger descending towards him and the dark energy around Lu An's body. He knew that even if he self-destructed, he wouldn't be able to kill Lu An. And if he used the Blood Sacrifice again, two consecutive uses of the Blood Sacrifice would also be enough to take his life.
He couldn't self-destruct, at least not yet! He couldn't let his death be meaningless. He had to ensure that his self-destruction would be able to kill Lu An!
And so … …
Pu!!
The Cleaving Sky Golden Dagger pierced through the Spirit Race individual's blood-red robes and then plunged into the Spirit Race individual's collarbone. Only the hilt of the dagger could be seen!
He hadn't self-destructed!
Lu An's eyes narrowed. Fresh blood immediately began to pour out of the Spirit Race individual's mouth and neck! He had to admit that this Spirit Race individual was a respectable warrior. Not everyone could make the decision to take a hit head-on.
Not only that, but the Spirit Race individual didn't even cry out in pain or stop moving. Instead, he immediately lowered his head, trying to use his lower jaw and his body to block Lu An's right hand. He was trying to immobilize Lu An's right hand.
As a result, Lu An couldn't immediately pull out the dagger. Lu An wasn't the type of person to hesitate in battle. Even if he made the wrong choice, he wouldn't make an arbitrary decision. He immediately released his grip and relinquished control of the dagger.
Bang!
The Spirit Race individual's lower jaw slammed into the end of the dagger. Even the bones in his jaw creaked, indicating just how much force he had used.
The Spirit Race individual's left wrist had been forcefully grabbed by Lu An, and his right hand, which had been tightly gripping the sword, was freed. He immediately swung the sword at Lu An's neck.
Lu An wasn't in a hurry. He immediately let go of the Spirit Race individual's wrist and retreated three feet, dodging the sword.
Lu An had retreated three feet because the dagger was more than enough to take the Spirit Race individual's life. As long as Lu An made sure that the dagger wasn't pulled out, even if the Spirit Race individual had taken an immortal pill, he wouldn't be able to recover. All he had to do was keep the Spirit Race individual occupied. In fact, in his eyes, the Spirit Race individual was no different from a dead person.
This was indeed the case. The Spirit Race clansmen were more aware of their own injuries than Lu An. He had no chance of surviving. Even if Lu An didn't attack him, the dagger had already cut off his livelihood. The only thing he could do now was to find an opportunity to grab Lu An and self-detonate while he was still alive.
Buzz!!
The Spirit Race individual swung his sword again. This time, the sword was incredibly fast. Lu An, who was three feet away, retreated once again and leaned forward, dodging the sword.
However … … Lu An was surprised by what happened next.
The Spirit Race individual's hand had only swung halfway when he suddenly let go of the sword. At the same time, he activated the power of his bloodline to its maximum, completely ignoring his own injuries. In any case, he wouldn't be able to survive, so it didn't matter how serious his injuries were.
There was no difference between swinging the sword normally and letting go when it was as far away as it could go. As such, Lu An wasn't able to predict what would happen. The hand was less than a foot away from Lu An. Coupled with the speed at which it was moving, it almost instantly appeared in front of Lu An's neck. It was about to grab onto Lu An's neck!
However, even though Lu An wasn't able to predict this, that didn't mean that he would be caught by the other party. He didn't even need to remove his blood-stained clothes. He quickly raised his hand and pushed the Spirit Race individual's hand aside, not even giving the other party a chance to grab onto his wrist.
The Spirit Race individual's eyes were bloodshot, as if they were about to be swallowed by blood. His eyes were filled with hatred and unwillingness. He felt like he still had a single breath left and could attack again.
The Spirit Race individual was even faster than Lu An, who was retreating. Just like how Lu An had chased after the Spirit Race individual, Lu An would find it difficult to escape. If the Spirit Race individual had Lu An's battle prowess, he would definitely be able to catch Lu An before he ran out of energy.
But … … the Spirit Race individual didn't have that.
He completely understood why the Spirit Race's intelligence reports had stated that they should avoid engaging in close combat with Lu An as much as possible. If they were fighting from a distance, he could rely on his superior cultivation base to suppress Lu An, but now that they were fighting in close combat, he felt like a child in front of Lu An, powerless to retaliate.
Or perhaps it was more like a normal person facing off against an expert who had mastered many battle techniques. His every move was completely harmless to his opponent, as if it were child's play.
Blocking and pulling, Lu An was not only not caught by the Spirit Race individual, but he also turned around and kicked the Spirit Race individual's chest. The blood in his organs had already congealed. After such a heavy blow, blood immediately began to gush out from the dagger in his neck like a geyser.
At the same time, the Spirit Race individual's body was sent flying. His last breath was about to disappear.
There was no chance.
If he didn't self-detonate now, then he wouldn't even have the chance to self-detonate.
And so......
The Spirit Race individual stared fixedly at Lu An with bloodshot eyes. His arms stretched out as he reached out to grab Lu An, as if he wanted to take Lu An's life.
Then......
Boom!!!
His body exploded all over, and his life force was extinguished!
