Chapter 575: Why fight so hard?
"Malika? Why are you here?!"
Just when the fight between the two was about to break out, Xia Yu suddenly pointed behind Malicus with a look of surprise that didn't seem fake.
Even though he knew the possibility was very, very, very small, the loyal dog couldn't help but turn his head and look back, hoping to see the figure who betrayed him.
Yet as expected, there was nothing behind it.
At the moment it turned its head, Xia Yu had already raised the greatsword of the hunting god, and suddenly accelerated and sprinted, with the sword body burning with fierce black flames and killing behind Malicus.
Sneak attack?
It is impossible to launch a surprise attack. This is called seizing the opportunity to fight and using tactics properly.
The black flames turned into slashing blows, and Xia Yu used all his strength to unleash the fighting skills of the Hunting God's Greatsword, slashing fiercely at Malicus's unprotected back.
boom--!!!
In an instant, the earth shook, the floating broken temple spread out buzzing waves, and the whistling sound tore through the dust in the sky.
The aftermath of the black flames splashed everywhere, setting the ground inside the temple on fire. In just a few seconds, sunken and charred grooves appeared on the ground.
As expected, Malicus, who was attacked by surprise, reacted instantly. The five-finger sword in his hand just went around behind him and blocked the sword that Xia Yu was chopping down.
The sneak attack failed, so Xia Yu jumped over and put some distance between himself and Malicus.
“Tsk.”
As expected of Marika's shadow beast, its combat awareness is always online, and it is difficult to gain an advantage through sneak attacks.
"As a descendant of warriors, the Faded One actually used such a petty trick. How despicable!" Malicus looked at the Five Finger Sword with a tiny crack on it, and his voice was filled with hatred.
"What? Do you still want me to fight you one-on-one?"
"That's a nice thought."
Before Malicus could react, Xia Yu suddenly raised his right hand and snapped his fingers. Light purple ripples emerged from his fingertips along with the sound of the snap.
The next moment, the same lavender smoke emerged and rose behind him, and the illusory soul figure also appeared solidly.
There were nearly a dozen figures, all dressed in uniform, tall, and looking like they would disappear into the air at any moment.
"Black Blade Group, charge!"
"yes!"
There were clearly multiple figures, but the answer sounded like only one.
Malicus looked at the souls that suddenly appeared, and his expression instantly became furious, because he sensed that the twisted blades in the hands of these souls contained the stolen Death Rune.
The stolen Death Rune actually appeared before it in this way, and Malicus almost lost his mind.
"You despicable thieves! Die!"
Completely enraged, Malicus had no other thoughts and only wanted to tear apart everyone in front of it.
The huge beasts and the black swordsmen attacked at the same time. Although the black swordsmen were all hidden assassins, they were equally capable of fighting with the black swords.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Malicus chopped the black knife closest to him with his sword, and at the same time, his free hand grew beast claws, which he used to impact and tear the ground. The black knives met him with their knives, and a fierce battle began.
Although he was outnumbered alone, Malicus did not fall into a disadvantage. Instead, he became more courageous as the battle went on.
"Hey, dog, look here."
Suddenly, Xia Yu's voice sounded beside Malicus, and in the next moment, the Hunting God's Greatsword collided with the Five Finger Sword.
Malicus's face showed a ferocious and ferocious look, and the beast claw emblem lit up on his left hand. Just as he was about to condense the beast claws to tear apart the Faded One in front of him, a black and red blade suddenly flew from the side.
That was a fighting technique in which the black sword released the power of the Death Rune, then transformed that power into a blade and released it.
In other words, this is the power of the Death Rune.
"roar!"
Seeing that the blade transformed by the Death Rune was about to hit him, Malicus had no choice but to roar in anger and use the beast prayer released by his left hand to shatter the black and red blade.
Xia Yu took this opportunity to gather his strength and suppress the sword in his hand. With the cooperation of the black knife, he instantly gained the upper hand.
It turned out that what Liu Bang said was right. If you can fight in a group, why fight one-on-one?
The hunting god's greatsword gradually pressed down Malicus' body, causing it to bend. The black flames on the blade were about to stain its body.
Malicus, who had once fought with the Queen of the Night Eyes, naturally knew the power of the black flame.
"roar!!!"
Realizing that he could not resist, Malicus used his instinctive beast roar, and the roar cut through the air. Seeing this, Xia Yu forced a change of tactics and used his sword to block the roar that cut through the air.
Then the sword thrust out straight towards his head.
Malicus dodged by turning his head, but this one mistake restricted him everywhere. The sword failed to pierce his head, but instead chopped down diagonally, whistling as if to split it in two.
Swish!
The black flame slashed at him, and Malicus hurriedly blocked it with his sword, but this time the Five Finger Sword broke directly in the middle, and the Hunting God's Greatsword took this opportunity to slash Malicus' chest.
Bright red blood splattered out, and the black flame on the sword instantly penetrated into Malicus' body through the wound like a cancer attached to his bones.
“Puff!!”
The severely injured Malicus retreated repeatedly, lost his balance and fell to the ground, blood foaming from his mouth, and gasping for breath.
Ignoring the pain of the black flames burning his body, Malicus turned his head to look at his left hand. There was a disc sealed on the back of his left hand.
“Death…”
"Become my sword once again!"
After saying that, Malicus suddenly raised the broken Five Finger Sword and stabbed it hard into the seal on the back of his left hand.
Under the enormous force, the disc seal shattered instantly, and the Five Finger Sword was completely submerged in its hand. The next moment, thick red and black mist exploded and spread from its left hand.
When the fog dissipated , the five-finger sword in Malicus' hand had already changed its appearance. It was a twisted black sword with a broken guard.
And Malicus himself was completely changed under the erosion of the black and red mist.
The coarse linen sacrificial garment gradually turned into beast armor made of black iron decorated with gold. The fangs in the mouth were tightly closed, and the helmet on the head covered the entire face. Only the long pale hair was unrestrained and flying freely behind the head.
In the second stage, Malicus completely changed his appearance, becoming thinner and more than five meters tall. Even when he was on all fours, he was about three or four meters tall.
"roar!"
After completely pulling out the black sword, Malicus roared to the sky, then stabbed the black sword into the ground fiercely. An ominous black and red mist also ignited on the sword body.
This is the black sword that carries the destined death . On the night of conspiracy, after a part of death was stolen, Malicus sealed the black sword in his body to prevent it from being stolen again.
The black sword and the black knife have the same origin and are both powered by the power of the Death Rune, but it is obvious that the black sword with the main body of the Death Rune is more powerful.
“Come back. This is the black sword transformed from death. Even though you are all in the form of souls, it is not so pleasant to be contaminated by death.”
Feeling the strong breath of death, Xia Yu narrowed his eyes and spoke to the black knives gathered around him.
Hearing this, one of the Black Knives took a step forward and was about to say something, but as Xia Yu raised his hand and waved it, the Black Knives turned back into lavender soul mist and returned to his body.
Malycus entered the second stage, and Xia Yu gripped the hilt of the sword again, took a deep breath, and instantly raised his hand to give himself several layers of buffs.
Lights of various colors flashed one after another, and even Malicus was stunned by the flashing lights.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Yu rushed forward instantly. The ground where he had just stood exploded as if a frame had been pulled apart, and the spiral sword also ignited black flames again.
The Black Flame is the flame of the hunting gods, but after Malikus sealed the destined death, the Black Flame lost its power to hunt gods.
However, even if it cannot kill gods, the black flame is still one of the flames that carries great power.
The raging black flames distorted the nearby space. Malicus held the black sword horizontally, with the sword body carrying black and red mist, as if he wanted to compete with the black flames.
clang!!!
The two collided, and terrifying sword energy burst out from the black sword. While the sword energy tore through the surrounding space, it also tore towards the figure behind the black flame.
However, the sword energy easily tore apart the figure behind the black flame. The remaining force not only reached the wall of the temple, but also split the wall into two, and finally disappeared into the void.
Seeing that there was only a shadow behind the black flame, Malicus became alarmed and quickly put away his sword and retreated.
boom!!!
At the moment it retreated, Xia Yu suddenly appeared from mid-air, holding a giant snake hunting spear and smashing it down hard.
Seeing that it failed to hit the target, the tip of the snake hunting spear suddenly lit up with a long blade of light, piercing through the space at lightning speed and pointing directly at Malicus' chest.
Exclusive combat skills, hunting big snakes!
When facing the undead serpent, the Serpent Hunting Spear's full-strength thrust will produce a long blade of light, showing its true power.
However, Malicus is not the immortal snake, so the light blade is not a complete form, but a castrated version that Xia Yu forced out.
However, even if it is a castrated version, the power of its light blade is not much weaker.
You should know that the original version was used to hunt immortal snakes in ancient times. The fact that it can be prefixed with the name of immortal is enough to show how powerful the immortal snake is.
The light burst out, and Malicus hurriedly raised his sword to block. The boundless force came at him, and he was so frightened that he put his hands against the sword, but he was still pushed back by the light blade, and his claws also scratched two deep grooves on the ground.
And then the next moment, the hunting god's sword was also wrapped in red light, spinning towards it.
Fighting skills, Ouhe sword dance!
By pouring air into the sword, the entire sword will spin violently, causing continuous damage. If you charge it up and launch it, you can increase the flying distance and spinning time.
The rotating greatsword of the hunting god ignited with black flames and rushed straight towards Maliks, whose arms were wide open.
Thick black flames shot up into the sky. Malicus's abdomen had no armor protection and was badly taken care of by Xia Yu.
“Roar!!”
Malicus roared in pain to the sky, and the red and black sword pressure rushed up into the sky. The light blade in front and the black flame on his abdomen were instantly washed away and shattered. Malicus took advantage of this opportunity to raise the black sword high and slashed fiercely in front of him with a strong sword energy of death.
Xia Yu flapped his wings and flew into the air. It would be troublesome if he was touched by the sword of death. He couldn't afford to provoke it, but couldn't he hide from it?
Suddenly, black and red fog broke out, completely submerging the entire temple. Under the cover of the fog, Malicus appeared above Xia Yu's head, and the black sword condensed with the destiny of death and stabbed straight down at Xia Yu's head.
As the crisis approached, Xia Yu tilted his head back, and the red shadow of a rotten dragon's head instantly appeared.
“Ouch!!!”
The breath of corruption bloomed like scarlet Ionia, and the smoke of corruption expanded instantly, enveloping Malycus who could not escape.
In fact, after possessing the law of corruption, he can also bloom, but blooming is a bit unethical and will overly damage the surrounding environment. As an environmentalist, he will naturally avoid it as much as possible.
After all, after Malenia blossomed in Gaileed, many people caught her and criticized her for this, and he didn't want to be criticized.
However, Crimson Corruption is also a very useful debuff, so using Corrupt Breath becomes the best choice.
The scarlet smoke of corruption spread out instantly and soon mixed with the black and red mist. The two mists completely filled the temple in an instant, but there was very little black left, only the ominous red.
Malicus, who was in the corrupt mist, felt that his whole body was being corroded by corruption. At most, it could turn the Death Rune into a black sword, but it could not use the power of the Death Rune to resist the scarlet corruption.
"roar!!!"
The roar of the beast appeared again. Malicus raised the black sword high and poured all his strength into it. He didn't care where Xia Yu was, but just slashed downwards with all his strength!
Feeling this power, Xia Yu's eyes narrowed, and the wings of the furnace spread out behind him, and his body disappeared in a flash.
Zooming out, one could see that at the location of the broken Sky Temple, a black and red beam of light suddenly hit the sky, followed by countless sword energies bursting out of the beam of light.
The sword energy tore through the entire temple, shattering it into countless pieces in an instant. The scattered sword energy flew hundreds of meters away, and the shock spread throughout the sky.
Occasionally, an unlucky flying dragon would be touched by the sword energy and instantly engulfed by the black and red mist, and then die instantly.
Even the ancient dragons who had noticed this place did not dare to come over to investigate due to such power, for fear of being affected and killed.
After the entire temple collapsed, the ominous fog that enveloped the temple also dissipated. Without the fog to cover it, Malicus reappeared.
At this moment, it was standing on a piece of pumice, gasping for breath, but without the erosion of the corrupt red mist, its condition was rapidly improving.
"Why are you trying so hard? You've already lost once, so losing again won't be a big deal."
Xia Yu held a snake hunting spear in his left hand and a hunting god sword in his right hand, flew in front of Malicus, and dissuaded him with some reluctance.
"Anyway, you know that it was Marika who lied to you, so why are you fighting so hard?"
"Oh, you don't understand!"
Malicas bared his teeth and yelled at Xia Yu: "Because I am 'Malika's Black Sword' Malicas!"
“Tsk.”
Hearing this answer, Xia Yu shook his head and didn't want to say anything. Malicus was too loyal, and this loyalty could not be shaken by words.
The poor dog, even after learning that it was the person who betrayed him, he still performed his duty, even if it meant fighting for his life.
Malika you have no heart!
