Chapter 72: Another Battle with Azakana
"Azakana?! When?!"
Li Ke looked at the huge humanoid monster in surprise. The other party was very different from the ones he had seen before. Not only was the mask larger, but the body was also much larger than the ones he had seen before.
It’s at least as high as a five-story building!
However, his arms were not as big as those of the Azakkas he had seen before, they were just the size of a normal person's.
However, he had nine ugly tails behind him! And there was a huge straight sword on his waist.
The nine tails were covered with thorns and burning with red flames. Just by looking at them, Li Ke couldn't help but think of...
Tifa, 2B, DVA...
Li Ke bent down, and because his body was covered with thorns, he almost fell to his knees.
"Damn it! How could he stir up evil thoughts in people! How despicable!"
He infused the energy into the sword and scabbard in his hand, and blazing flames instantly surrounded his body, forcing back all the lilies and thorns.
But such behavior also attracted the attention of Azakana.
"Oh? You didn't die after your vitality and memories were absorbed... It seems that you are quite interesting as well."
Azaka looked at Li Ke with eyes as big as a TV, full of amusement. He shook Ahri in his hand and gave Li Ke a ferocious smile.
"I have to thank you very much. If you hadn't appeared, I would have had to wait a long time to get her power..."
The nine tails behind Azakana swept across the surroundings. The huge tails instantly swept away a large area of thorns and flowers, and the burning red flames burned all the lilies.
However, even so, these flowers and thorns continued to wriggle, trying to surround them. Li Ke also found that the ground under his feet was moving, as if something in the ground was stirring, trying to grab his feet.
This place is really weird.
Li Ke remained silent, inserted the unexpectedly intact scabbard back into his belt, and then held the sword in his hands with both hands.
Azakana, who had burned all the lilies around him, looked warily at the place where the gardener left, with cunning in his eyes. Then he turned his head and smiled at Li Ke.
“Since you helped me, I won’t kill you…Hahahahaha!!! But I guess this stupid fox never told you that she actually planned to die here, right? What a loser.”
Azakana, who was holding Ahri in his hand, laughed loudly, while Ahri, who was held by him, lay motionless with lifeless eyes in his hand, with no intention of refutation at all.
Li Ke narrowed his eyes. Although the wounds and scratches from thorns all over his body were painful, he didn't have time to care about them now.
He stared at the Azakana in front of him, the vitality in his body constantly transformed into energy, ready to fight at any time.
But seeing him like this, Azakana became even happier. Azakana's power comes from negative emotions. If you are targeted by Azakana, then it is easy for you to develop negative emotions.
If you cannot get out of it quickly and continue to be immersed in negative emotions, then the Azakana that follows you in the spiritual realm will become stronger and stronger.
Until it appears directly in front of you and absorbs your life and soul.
Generally speaking, at this stage, even if the person is rescued, he or she will basically be a useless person.
But a guess made Li Ke ignore the current crisis and ask a question instead.
"Have you been following me all along?"
Li Ke looked at the straight sword at the opponent's waist and his face turned very ugly.
Azakana sneered, grabbed Ahri and turned away.
But when he turned around, he still gave Li Ke an answer that was not an answer.
"you guess."
Li Ke was silent, because the sword on Azaka's waist was of the same style as his first sword.
Then the energy around him began to boil and continuously flowed into the sword in his hand. Under the influence of the sword, red flames began to wrap around his body, once again forcing back the thorns and lilies that kept attacking from all around.
Li Ke held the sword in one hand and the scabbard in the other, and slowly walked towards Azakana who wanted to leave.
"do you know?"
The sword in his hand has been completely wrapped in flames, and the sword body has completely turned red, emitting a dazzling red light.
This is the result of the combination of Li Ke's Qi and the power of the sword. The originally indestructible high-frequency sword blade now has the properties of a hot-melt knife.
What is valuable is that under the effect of magic, the sword remains intact.
Moreover, Li Ke heard a cry, a cry that was full of loneliness.
This sword was responding to him.
As he calmed down and sensed the sword, the world in his eyes became different. Countless colorful lights appeared in his eyes. These were traces of magic, something he did not have.
In this endless spiral of colors, he is the only white.
After more than a decade of hard training, plus hard training in Arad, Li Ke has actually always been only one step away from a certain realm, and now, he has finally made it.
He has always believed that he must achieve a high degree of spiritual unity and be completely focused in order to reach this state.
But unfortunately, his mind was in a mess, full of chaotic thoughts, but he unexpectedly reached this state: he could sense the sword in his hand and "communicate" with it.
He didn't understand why, but he knew what he had to do now.
"Your mind is a mess, your heart is so complicated that even an elephant can fit inside. As a swordsman, do you intend to fight me in this state?"
The tall monster sensed Li Ke's murderous intent and slowly turned his head.
Li Ke guessed correctly, he was not the Azakana who was pursuing Ahri, he was the Azakana who followed Li Ke.
Li Ke also had many cracks in his heart. Especially in recent times, his mind had become unusually chaotic, which made him smell an opportunity.
Then, he followed Li Ke, waiting for Li Ke to fail so that he could strike Li Ke and get Li Ke's coveted soul.
But he encountered another delicious, edible soul.
Although it was an annoying fox, this stupid fox didn't seem to understand what his identity and race represented. As long as he could devour the other party, he would be able to dominate the spiritual realm!
Therefore, he decisively gave up on waiting for Li Ke, who would have to wait for an unknown period of time, and turned to find Ahri.
But this doesn't mean that he doesn't want to eat Li Ke anymore.
So he turned his head and laughed at Li Ke.
"Don't make me laugh, you worthless swordsman! You don't understand the gap between us at all."
The tall monster drew the sword from his waist, and swung the ten-meter-long sword directly in front of Li Ke, raising a cloud of dust.
But Li Ke remained unmoved, he still walked .
"I just asked you a question, and you answered me with a question, right?"
Li Ke raised his sword and assumed a fighting stance.
"Hmm? So what?"
Azakana was a little confused, but Li Ke rushed out.
"Because of the Riddler, everyone must die."
