Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Battle of the Blood Sea

"Wu Xiaoyun, Ghost Wolf, wait for me here. Dark Evil, let’s go!" Shi Feng commanded in a low voice as he and Dark Evil submerged into the ground.

The world beneath was shrouded in darkness, and soon a blood-colored light flared up. Shi Feng and Dark Evil found themselves at the edge of a rolling, surging Blood Sea, with waves crashing and billowing. The blood-colored glow was emanating from the sea itself, likely from gems embedded within.

"It’s a pity, so much blood, yet its energy nearly dissipated. Such a waste," the Sacred Flame within Shi Feng lamented.

"It’s still good enough. Absorb it with all your might!" Shi Feng ordered, and after he spoke, the Sacred Flame began to devour the energy, sucking it in like a whale drawing in water. Blood-colored waves surged towards Shi Feng.

Shi Feng scanned the Blood Sea with his gaze, his Soul Power sensing and searching for the vile creature that had harmed Dark Evil.

"There!" Shi Feng suddenly spotted a familiar figure in the blood-red sea ahead. He leaped forward, stepping on the surface of the sea and sprinting across the waves with steady footfalls. "Smack! Smack! Smack! Smack! Smack!"

While Shi Feng’s body continued to frantically absorb the crimson blood, the Bloodthirsty Sword fiercely slashed towards the figure: "Beast, die!"

A stark white, massive Sword Qi took shape above the sea and plummeted towards the figure.

As if sensing danger, the figure rapidly turned around to reveal a delicate and beautiful face—it was Li Ru, the daughter of Butcher Li from Xiuling Village.

Li Ru’s long hair fluttered in the wind as she suddenly let out a ghastly, eerie laugh: "Heh heh heh! So it’s you, you little beast. How dare you compete with me for the delicacies here. Go to hell!" Her voice was still piercingly shrill and unpleasant.

As Li Ru spoke, she wielded a pitch-black pig-killing knife, slashing through the air and unleashing a huge black Sword Energy that formed above and struck downwards.

"Boom!" The two forces of energy collided, causing wild, rampant energy to flare up and provoke a colossal blood wave that upheaved from the Blood Sea with a loud crash, then furiously smashed back down. Shortly after, both the Sword Qi and the Sword Energy dissipated.

Li Ru stood proudly atop the Blood Sea, pig-killing knife in hand, her greedy gaze fixed on Shi Feng. She licked her lips, her tongue flicking briefly over the corner of her mouth, and sneered, "You as food have grown so strong. I’m looking forward to sinking my knife into your body, slicing off your flesh, and slowly savoring it in my mouth. I think it will be delicious, heh heh heh!"

"No! You can’t do that, it’s Shi Feng!" Suddenly, Li Ru clutched her head in what appeared to be immense pain, her body trembling, emanating the shrill voice of a young girl.

Then Li Ru’s face twisted with malice as she shouted, "You promiscuous whore! Still can’t stop thinking about this scoundrel. You’re truly disgusting! If it weren’t for your flesh being so suited to me, I’d chop you down right now!"

"Shi Feng, run! He’ll kill you!" Li Ru’s pained expression surfaced again as she called out to Shi Feng.

Shi Feng also stood above the Blood Sea, allowing the violent blood-colored waves to crash against his body. This ghastly thing, it has grown so strong in this period of time. What kind of evil object could it be that it took Li Ru’s body?

"Nine Nether Soul-Shocking Seal, strike!" Shi Feng shouted lowly as he sent the Nine Nether Soul-Shocking Seal towards Li Ru.

"Jiejiejiejiejie!" That evil object cackled sinisterly. Shi Feng suddenly sensed that, amidst the evil laughter, an eerie energy seemed to be present, and his Nine Nether Soul-Shocking Seal dissipated into the sea like mud, vanishing into thin air.

"No matter what you are, I will eradicate you completely!" Shi Feng shouted, and burst forth with blood-colored flames, scorching towards what lay ahead.

"Fire! The aura of Heavenly Fire!" Li Ru shrieked, then laughed strangely and eerily again, "Jiejie, perfect, it’s Heavenly Fire! Using Heavenly Fire to condense my flesh, this will be simply too perfect."

Just as the blood-colored flames were about to reach Li Ru, Li Ru’s figure flashed and disappeared, leaving the surging blood-colored flames burning nothing but air.

"Get out here!" Shi Feng roared, slashing a sword towards the sky. A huge white half moon-shaped Sword Qi swept through the air. With a loud "bang," Li Ru appeared above, the pig-killing knife held horizontally beneath her, blocking the Half Moon Sword Qi. However, the impact of the Half Moon Sword Qi soon had her body continuing to rise into the air.

Taking advantage of the moment, Shi Feng quickly performed another Nine Nether Slash downwards. A huge white Sword Qi appeared above, sandwiching her from both sides and slashing towards Li Ru.

Just as the Nine Nether Slash was about to hit, in that moment, Li Ru once again vanished into nothingness, and his Nine Nether Slash collided with the Half Moon Sword Qi with a booming sound, and then both dissipated simultaneously.

"Damn it! It’s like this again!" Facing this evasive evil entity, every time it came and went without a trace, Shi Feng felt a bit mad, wishing he could just grab and tear it to shreds.

He had once thought that reaching the third-stage of Soul Power would leave this ghostly thing with nowhere to hide, yet unexpectedly, as he grew stronger, this ghostly thing was also rapidly breaking through.

"Jiejiejiejie! Delicious food, come to my bowl!" In that moment, Shi Feng heard the grating voice of the evil object coming from all directions, echoing incessantly, soul sensing as if the ghostly thing’s presence was all around him.

"What a wicked technique," Shi Feng thought to himself. Then, pig-killing knives of inky blackness emerged from all around, centered on Shi Feng and even from below in the Blood Sea, densely gathering and stabbing ferociously towards him amidst the dark blackness.

"Jiejiejiejie..." The eerie laughter continued.

"Burn!" Fiery flames of blood color erupted once more from Shi Feng’s body, his sword, which had turned to a silvery white, danced wildly as he directly charged upwards, defending against the knives coming from above, below, in front, and behind with a series of quick sounds.

The collision of each pig-killing knife against the Bloodthirsty Sword sounded as if they were solid objects, clanging crisply. Although Shi Feng fended off the thrusts from all directions, two blades from below evaded his notice, piercing through the defenses of the Sacred Flame, stabbing through the soles of Shi Feng’s shoes, and plunging into the arches of both his feet.

"Ah!" A pain so intense it was as if his heart was being drilled made Shi Feng roar like a wild beast gone mad, his features distorted as he howled to the sky. Then, the two pig-killing knives that had pierced into Shi Feng’s feet turned into two thick strands of black mist and burrowed into his soles.

"Jiejiejie, my little darling, such a delightful sound. I’ll come and savor you properly." That sinister and weird grating voice once again arose from all directions, and Shi Feng, as his body descended, found himself suddenly surrounded once more by a dense mass of dark pig-killing knives.
