Chapter 365 Instant Crush
Was that even a human girl?!
How could she have slapped away the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant, the king of close-quarter combat, and one at a rank higher than hers, with her hand?
If it weren’t for the fact that they had seen this with their own eyes, no one would have believed that this could even happen in the real world!
That was terrifying! Qin Shaotian was just as shocked. He never thought that the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant’s skill would be dealt with so easily.
Not to mention the fact that Yan Bingyue stopped it with her own hands!
Without relying on her pets!
The way she used her sword and strength…
Was she honestly at the sixth rank?!
Yan Bingyue was making another dash at the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant. Qin Shaotian came back to his senses and pulled a long face. Yan Bingyue turned out to be more powerful than he had antic.i.p.ated but this was not a time for him to flinch. The sneak attack failed. Part of the reason was that Yan Bingyue was outstanding and the other part was that he was careless. She didn’t actually think she could defeat a b.l.o.o.d.y Servant, did she?
Come on!
Qin Shaotian freed all the limitations on the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant so that it could display its full strength.
Roar!!
The b.l.o.o.d.y Servant shouted. Its coa.r.s.e and shrill voice made everyone’s blood freeze and toes curl. At the same time, in a strangely twisted way, the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant crawled up from the ground. The cracked bones in its chest began to heal.
As the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant shouted, a large amount of dark energy came out from it, like a ma.s.s of dark mist; it had the ability to block all senses.
The dark mist quickly spread out and soon covered up Yan Bingyue.
Come on!
The b.l.o.o.d.y Servant’s sharp blades around its body dangled down within the mist. Suddenly, the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant vanished on the spot and then reappeared on Yan Bingyue’s left.
The sound as it moved and the whistles in the air were all covered up by the dark mist.
The ones inside the dark mist would be deprived of all senses; they would only perceive silence.
Merely standing in that silence was enough to make people feel stifled and panicked.
Whoos.h.!.+
Several sharp blades whooshed by. Quietly, they cut through the mist toward Yan Bingyue’s limbs, instead of going toward her vital organs such as her brain and heart.
Qin Shaotian was still holding back, considering Yan Bingyue’s background. He wouldn’t aim to kill her. The Qin Family would be in big trouble if he resorted to killing over winning a place at the Elite League.
However, she suddenly opened her eyes the moment the sharp blades were about to reach her. As if two bolts of lightning struck within her purple eyes, they lit up the darkness!
She unsheathed her sword!
The sword glistened. Instantly, the light flashed and sparks were stirred up. All of the sharp blades were cut off!
In the meantime, one of the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant’s sharp blades suddenly began to bleed and then fell to the ground!
Yet again, she managed to fend off the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant’s strike and was fighting back!
Stimulated by the pain, the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant screamed. With a tremor, three shadows appeared; they surrounded Yan Bingyue and started to attack simultaneously.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoos.h.!.+
The many blades were dancing wildly.
Yan Bingyue appeared to be scared. She swung her sword and wove a net of sword light that covered her up.
Still, the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant’s true self and its shadows were violent. For a moment, she was at a disadvantage. A cut appeared on her shoulder.
Another small cut appeared on her cheek.
Yan Bingyue was furious. She kicked the ground, trying to break out from the encirclement. However, as soon as she began to move, the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant’s sharp blades began to grow out some spikes.
Bang!
Yan Bingyue’s sword b.u.mped into one of the sharp blades. She felt something was pulling her. Caught off guard, she almost lost grip of her sword.
She made up her mind and gave instructions to her battle pets.
She could ward off blows from the best pet in close-quarter combat, but it would be too difficult to win!
No wonder the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant was the king of close-quarter combat!
Roar!!
Her pets began to roar and that roar dissolved the dark mist around her. The darkness disappeared, revealing the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant and Yan Bingyue.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoos.h.!.+
Yan Bingyue was still trying.
The b.l.o.o.d.y Servant was still attacking furiously.
In total, there were four b.l.o.o.d.y Servants, including its shadows, which stupefied everyone.
What was more astonis.h.i.+ng was that Yan Bingyue was using one sword to fight all the four b.l.o.o.d.y Servants that were violently attacking her.
In the distance, Qin Shaotian was unable to believe this.
He understood that the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant was taking it seriously. But he couldn’t have foreseen that Yan Bingyue could remain standing!
At that moment, he realized the gap between them.
A glint of coldness rose in his eyes.
Roar!
The Crystal Ocean Dragon bellowed and the ice expanded on the ground, creeping onto the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant’s feet. The three shadows of the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant were pierced open by the ice and then disappeared. The actual b.l.o.o.d.y Servant hopped up; it melted the ice and put some distance between itself and Yan Bingyue.
The fact that it couldn’t defeat Yan Bingyue had quickly filled the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant with rage.
Thanks to the Crystal Ocean Dragon, Yan Bingyue was also covered by the Crystal Sh.e.l.l. She was panting and staring at the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant, eager to fight.
The b.l.o.o.d.y Servant was quite a nice training partner.
Her sword skills could be improved a bit more if she could fight this battle pet a few more times.
Of course, she could not play with it. It was an actual match.
Roar!
The Crystal Ocean Dragon manifested a crystal wall in front of the Lava Dragon. That was Crystal Prison; it would take time for the Lava Dragon to break free.
At the same time, the Crystal Ocean Dragon and the h.e.l.l Viper were rus.h.i.+ng toward the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant. Viper Eyes!
Crystal Ice!
The two skills were unleashed at the same time. The b.l.o.o.d.y Servant could be immune to most skills, but it did pause for a second since the h.e.l.l Viper’s deterrent skill was powerful.
In the meantime, a crystal layer appeared on the ice which crawled up and froze the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant.
In the blink of an eye, both the Lava Dragon and the b.l.o.o.d.y Servant had been contained. At that exact moment, Yan Bingyue made a dash for Qin Shaotian.
Thunder Flas.h.!.+
Cloning Image!
While Yan Bingyue was running forward, she became two and then four. The four Yan Bingyues were das.h.i.+ng toward Qin Shaotian at the same time.
Qin Shaotian readied himself.
This was it.
He held tight to the sword in his hand, ready to fight.
Roar!
The Earthen Dragon and the Wind-wing Dragon jumped at Yan Bingyue at the same time.
Hurricanes swept across, surrounding Qin Shaotian and then blowing toward Yan Bingyue. The four Yan Bingyue figures were flexible and agile; they kept evading to the sides. “Eh?” Qin Shaotian detected something was off. All of a sudden, he felt an incoming a.s.sault from the left.
Qin Shaotian drew his sword instantly and at the same time, jumped away.
With a loud sound of metals clas.h.i.+ng, Qin Shaotian felt a force running down his arm. He almost lost his sword, which frightened him.
After he once again reached the ground, he realized that it was Yan Bingyue who had attacked him.
Before he realized, she had broken free from the protection of the Earthen Dragon and the Wind-wing Dragon, directly reaching him! It was because of the Nightmare Crafter!
Qin Shaotian came back to his senses. The other four Yan Bingyues had been produced by the pet!
The real Yan Bingyue had already snuck to attack him using other means!
The Nightmare Crafter had affected their minds silently!
d.a.m.n it!
Qin Shaotian bit his teeth. But soon, the will to fight came back to him!
At the moment, he was facing Yan Bingyue alone, away from their battle pets. He was eager to find out what the gap between them actually was!
Slas.h.!.+
Astral powers surged out. Qin Shaotian threw himself forward instantly. He waved his sword and unleashed a secret skill!
The sword grew to a ma.s.sive size, becoming several meters long in his hand. That was the skill named the Great Sword!
Yan Bingyue flashed a mocking grin. She didn’t step aside; she turned her waist displaying her sword skills with ease. She took a step backward and then to the side. Her sword clashed with the huge sword. In the meantime, the hair dangling down from Qin Shaotian’s forehead had been chopped into pieces!
The sword didn’t touch him, but the sword intent had reached him!
Qin Shaotian was taken aback. He turned the Great Sword around and tried to force Yan Bingyue away, but she slapped the huge sword with the strange astral rune in her hand. Some ripples appeared on the huge sword but the effect of the skill had been lost. The huge sword returned to its original state.
Taking the chance, Yan Bingyue pressed forward.
She appeared right in front of Qin Shaotian and stopped.
Qin Shaotian seemed to be frozen on the spot. A line of blood gradually emerged on his neck.
