Chapter 228 The Blood Pixiu
Jin Shuai took the opportunity to untie the young man and drag him toward the coffin while Ye Shaoyang was focused on dealing with the black witches .
By the time Ye Shaoyang turned around, Jin Shuai had moved the unconscious young man onto the cover of the coffin . His hand held a dagger over the chest of the young man ready to stab him .
The enemy’s heart!
Even though Ye Shaoyang did not know the young man, he was sure that Jin Shuai would dig out the boy’s heart and sacrifice it to the undead king as the enemy’s heart .
In the moment of stabbing, Ye Shaoyang slashed his soul binding chain across Jin Shuai’s face and threw him away from the young man . Then, he quickly ordered Xiao Ma to carry the young man to a safer place and guard him . As long as the young man was safe, the ritual would not be able to be completed .
Ye Shaoyang felt relieved at once . Being left alone to deal with Jin Shuai would not be a problem for him .
Jin Shuai got to his feet and retreated a few steps . Rage could be seen in his eyes, and his voice trembled a little, “You mess up everything!”
Ye Shaoyang replied Jin Shuai with a faint smile, and said, “So?”
Jin Shuai made up his mind; he did an unexpectedly terrifying thing: he inserted his right pinky into his mouth and chewed it off!
Ye Shaoyang was dumbfounded . How much determination did he need to chew off his finger? What was he going to do?
“Big Brother Shaoyang, watch out . He is going to perform powerful blood witchcraft!”
Ye Shaoyang turned around . Tan Xiaohui ran toward them with an anxious expression . Then, she said, “The pinky is a black witch’s very life . Once a black witch breaks his little finger, he can perform extremely powerful forbidden witchcraft, but he will lose all his cultivation . ”
Ye Shaoyang looked at Jin Shuai then to the broken little finger in his mouth . Jin Shuai grimaced in pain, and his face was bathed in sweat, but he tried to hold back the pain as he gave Ye Shaoyang a look of intense hatred . Then, he started to chew hard on the little finger .
Crunch! Crunch!
Blood flowed down along the edge of his lower jaw .
The scene made them feel sick and terrified . Chills ran down Ye Shaoyang’s spine when he saw Jin Shuai chewing on his pinky .
Suddenly, Jin Shuai opened his mouth and spat out the mouthful of fragmented flesh and bones; he made a hand seal and recited incantations .
The fragmented flesh and bones turned into a pool of black blood as soon as they fell into the bushes, and a hand suddenly appeared from the blood shocking everyone .
That hand grabbed the edge of the puddle . Slowly, a red creature emerged . It had a dog-shaped body, a pig’s face without lips, and two rows of black canines exposed along its jaws . Black sticky discharge filled with slender red worms flowed out between the canines .
“What the h.e.l.l is this creature?” Ye Shaoyang clasped his hands as he retreated . His nail cut open his left palm and drew a ‘爻’ .
“That is a Pixiu, a Blood Pixiu!” Tan Xiaohui replied nervously, “The creature can consume air and increase its cultivation . We must kill it as fast as possible . Don’t let it consume too much air!”
Just after she said, the Blood Pixiu opened its mouth, exposed the two rows of canines and breathing in deeply . Its body color deepened .
Ye Shaoyang shot a handful of ancient Chinese coins at the Blood Pixiu, but it dodged them . However, Ye Shaoyang had predicted the position it would dodge . At his top sprinting speed, he rushed toward the Blood Pixiu, but it reacted fast too . With a bow, it dove below Ye Shaoyang’s armpit and bit his shoulder .
Ye Shaoyang quickly smacked the Blood Pixiu with his left palm . The ‘爻’ in his left palm activated at once and repelled it . Without giving the Blood Pixiu a chance to catch its breath, Ye Shaoyang hooked an arm around its neck tightly and pressed his left palm on its forehead . Blood continuously oozed out from the ‘爻’ wound and sounded with a series of explosive sounds . White smoke hissed out once the blood encountered the Blood Pixiu .
Ye Shaoyang decided to use the move right after listening to Tan Xiaohui’s words . Pairing his Heavenly Master’s blood with the power of ‘爻’ on his left palm was the best way to strive for the shortest time to kill the Blood Pixiu and prevent it from gaining strength . He did not even dare imagine how powerful the Blood Pixiu would be after breathing a sufficient amount of air .
Bit by bit, the Blood Pixiu turned into mucus and became weaker and weaker . Jin Shuai was startled and furious; he sacrificed all of his cultivation to summon the Blood Pixiu, but Ye Shaoyang killed it before it got to show its power . However, Jin Shuai did not hesitate . Fleeing was the first thought that came to his mind . Suddenly, a figure blocked his way when he was running toward the exit of Dead Man Valley . He fixed his eyes upon it . It was Tan Xiaohui .
Tan Xiaohui stared at him coldly, “The traitor of the supreme witch family, where are you planning to go?”
Jin Shuai smirked as he replied, “Yes, I am a traitor, but at least I am a human . Not like you, you are not even a human--”
“No!” Tan Xiaohui raised up her hand and cast a Golden Coins Throwing Weapon at Jin Shuai, and sliced a piece of flesh from his cheek .
Jin Shuai cried out in pain . Covering his face with his hand, he ran toward the altar, and Tan Xiaohui chased him in circles around the altar . Jin Shuai still had good stamina even though he had lost his cultivation . When Tan Xiaohui chased him from the right, he ran in the opposite direction as though they were playing hide-and-seek . Tan Xiaohui was gasping for breath but still could not catch Jin Shuai .
On the other side, after Xiao Ma rested the young man in a safe place, he quickly ran back to help when he watched Ye Shaoyang killed the Blood Pixiu without any effort . As he approached, Ye Shaoyang raised his head and scolded, “Don’t forget about your task! It is dying . ”
Ye Shaoyang’s words stunned Xiao Ma; immediately, he remembered his mission and quickly ran toward the coffin . The blood of animal sacrifices had drained into the hole and had begun to dry up . The three jade rings stopped rotating . However, the center hole continuously emitted red light . Besides, they heard someone breathing heavily underneath .
The Blood Gu undead king?
A cunning smile started at the corner of Xiao Ma’s lips . He removed the packs of black dogs’ blood around his waist and poured one of them into the center hole of the coffin . Gulp! Gulp! Gulp! The creature drank happily and groaned . When Xiao Ma finished one pack, he opened another pack and poured it in as he tried to hold back his laughter . The creature paused after drinking another two mouthfuls of blood .
“Arrghh!” the creature in the coffin roared .
Bang! Bang!
The creature banged on the coffin cover making the copper cover to bulge up in a few places .
Xiao Ma burst into laughter when he felt the rage of the creature through its response .
