Dark Blood Path

Chapter 38: Fierce Fight



Chapter 38: Fierce Fight

Xiao Yu panted heavily, and his entire body was drenched in sweat. His limbs felt numb, and he experienced a slight hint of weariness. His eyes were burning as if chili pepper water had been poured into them, while two clear blood lines trickled down from his eye sockets.

When he used bullet time earlier, the strain it generated was as intense as the skill itself, and as a result, he had to expend a lot of physical energy to uphold it. Xiao Yu almost passed out, even when he used the skill while being in his best condition. Nevertheless, he braved through the fatigue, flung aside the opponents machete with all his power and swung the long blade with one hand hacking toward the goblin leader.

The monster was very confident in its abilities, so after it had its attack blocked by that bone blade, it was greatly shocked and outraged, and then it easily parried the blade and counterattacked. Xiao Yu dodged hurriedly before a ball of flame almost instantly ignited in his left hand and blasted toward the opponent. The goblin leader slammed its machete against the projectile to repel it, and the fireball exploded violently as the flames scattered everywhere, causing the monsters sparse hair and chest to ignite in fire while a piece was blown out of its leather armor, making it scream in pain.

Taking advantage of the small victory, Xiao Yu pursued and fought it off several times in a row like lightning. Sparks flew from the collision of the blades, and the dull sound of iron against iron slamming into one another echoed out in the forest. The goblin leader suddenly sprang up in the air, and a sharp blue light streak fell on top of his head. Xiao Yu didnt dare to receive it head-on and dodged to the side. All of the dead leaves and sticks below were blown aside, leaving a deep, several-foot-long sword mark on the ground.

After the goblins last attack failed, it immediately turned around and jumped more than ten meters away, slapping off the lingering flames on its head and chest as they dissipated.

The two sides fought one another in a split second, and everything happened too quickly.

Han Kexin came to his side, put her hand on his hair before she wiped off his sweat, and said helplessly, Once again, I owe you my life.

Xiao Yu was panting hard, holding the blade in one hand and covering his aching eyes with the other, and said with some difficulty: I cant keep this up for long. When we fight later on, I wont have time to care about other people, so protect everyone and watch out for yourself.

Whats wrong with your eyes? Why are they bleeding?

No worries, its just that my body cant quite handle this new skill yet.

Han Kexin saw Xiao Yus determined expression from the side, and for some reason, her heartbeats sped up by a bit. Following that strange feeling, her hands closed together, and the red mist around her body immediately rushed towards Xiao Yu, greatly relieving his physical fatigue, while the tingling sensation in both his eyes weakened a lot.

Amidst the commotion around the woods, one monster after another emerged from behind the trees, as several goblin warriors and goblin slaves rushed out to join the battle, and eventually, all of the goblins from the school wreckage were dispatched over to this side of the forest. The most likely scenario was that the food nearby had been exhausted; therefore, this group of goblins set out to explore new territory, although they didnt expect to encounter everyone else from before.

Jiang Xiaowen flew over with her pair of beautiful butterfly wings and sprinkled countless shimmering light particles over the charging monsters, which immediately made a dozen goblin warriors rushing in front of them stand still.

At this time, Du Tao and Huang Jianmin also appeared, and they brought with them a large number of people to join the fray. Several of which were armed and shot wildly from a distance. The sound of gunfire resonated across the woods, and the goblin slaves immediately collapsed down, while as many goblin warriors got injured. The monsters were startled and enraged, and they charged up with ferocity, stepping over their companions dead bodies to reach their enemy. Both sides struggled fiercely against each other, and this conflict quickly escalated into a decisive war between goblins and human beings.

Huang Jianmin watched as a small number of goblins surged up toward their area. Armed with the submachine gun they retrieved from the police station, he pressed the trigger and repeatedly shot, as blood spattered from those monsters before they fell down. Most of them had already lost their fighting power in the melee fights, and they died with one shot on the spot.

He put in a new magazine, pulled the trigger, and fired at another group of monsters not far away.

Although the power of this kind of firearm was not as potent, it was more effective against large-scale groups of monsters below the first order. They had brought a total of three submachine guns and more than ten pistols from the police station. After several rounds of shooting, one-third of the goblins all suffered varying degrees of damage.

Huang Jianmin realized that the continued use of firearms might eventually backfire. After all, the goblins and humans were already facing each other in melee combat; hence, he was afraid to injure one of their companions. Add that to the fact that there were not many bullets left in their arsenal, so he ordered the others to also change into melee weapons and join the battle.

Xiao Yu recovered a little after a short period of healing; then, he suddenly spotted the goblin warrior chasing a student. His left palm immediately sparked a fireball and immediately launched it toward the goblin warrior. boom The explosion seriously injured it, and the raging flames enveloped its whole body in the blink of an eye, as it turned into a flaming figure rolling around in agony. The flames eventually dissipated, revealing a scorched black goblin warrior.

In that brief while, he slashed four to five goblin warriors to death in quick succession, relieving everyones pressure.

Roar!

The big machete in the goblin leaders hand was full of bluish light, and a brilliant light streak slashed across. That student swung his spear to defend himself, and in an instant, the short spear in his hands was destroyed like a piece of paper. He fell back before he could even utter a word, and his body was split in half in the air as it flew away. The lower body fell five to six meters away, but the upper body flew more than ten meters away and landed amidst a patch of grass while his blood and internal organs got scattered all over the ground.

The monster let out a long roar once again and jumped up into the air before dragging out another blue light streak, launching it toward Jin shi, who was locked in battle with two goblin warriors not far away. The goblin leaders attack was too fast, and Jin shi couldnt dodge it in time, so he could only bite the bullet and hold the goblin shield to resist. Just then, he felt like a huge mountain was pushing down on his shoulders; his left arm was utterly frozen by the impact, and his legs sank deeper into the ground; his mouth was wide open as he spewed a mouthful of blood. The pain he felt was intense.

The goblin leader didnt have much time to break through Jin shis defenses as it heard a whistling sound coming toward its face. It was well aware of the danger and swiftly turned over to dodge. A raging fireball tore through the air and flew straight at it, merely missing by a few millimeters.

Right after the goblin evaded the fireball, and before it could even land from mid-air, an extremely fast figure raced rapidly, jumping up on the way while kicking a tree trunk and shot towards it like a bullet, reaching it in a split second before he slashed at its head with a long blade. Sparks flew out into the air as the goblin leader blocked the fast attack with a horizontal swipe. A powerful force pushed it out of the sky, and its legs slid several meters on the ground before stopping. At this time, there was an explosion sound from behind, and the fireball finally exploded upon impact with a big tree, resulting in a burst of flames.

Red eyes gazed at the opposite party as the blood in the corner of Xiao Yus eyelids congealed. The goblin leaders expression grew vicious, and the large machete in its grip swung a blue ray of light in the direction of its enemy. The extremely fast figures chased each other as blue sword lights intertwined with red flames, and the trees were chopped and burned as they passed by. The fight grew much more heated!

The goblin leader had a very tyrannical strength. Xiao Yu was barely on par with the monster, even with the help of his eyes of insight. He had just recently joined the first-order ranks, after all, so for the time being, victory didnt lean on anyones side, and the face-off slowly turned into a war of attrition. Unfortunately for Xiao Yu, nearly half of his spiritual power was squandered as a result of using his bullet time skill in the beginning, and if he kept fighting in the same manner, he couldnt possibly win.

On the other side of the battlefield, Wang Chao forcibly smashed a goblins wooden shield with an axe, cut off the opponents arm with a swing of his weapon, and then cut off its leg with another chop. He grabbed its head with his big hand and threw it back before he rushed forward with his weapon and cleaved the goblin warrior to death. After all of the continuous battling, his strength increased by more than a quarter.

Not only he but also several other individuals had an increase in strength. At the moment, regular goblin warriors were relatively weak, as they were no longer able to pose a threat to Han Kexin and the others. So with their help, the people on the team could also contend against them in hopes of advancing. After all, the appearance of a few more elementary fighters would be very helpful in improving the overall strength of the team.

The number of goblins was decreasing rapidly, and the Wang Chao, Jin Shi duo had already retreated before they rushed directly towards the goblin leader, one on the left and one on the right, attacking it respectively with a rocky arm and a green battle axe. The goblin roared angrily and slashed at the two of them with a blue light streak. Jin Shi quickly blocked it with his shield, and Wang Chao also held the giant ax in both hands to resist, but the slash was too strong, and the two were sent flying as soon as they came into contact with that energy. Falling back into distance.

Before the goblin leader had time to withdraw its machete, a fireball flew towards it. The monster blocked once again with its weapon horizontally, only this time it was too late, as a blade quietly came from the side and pierced its shoulder armor, sinking several inches deep into its flesh. In a fit of rage, the goblin angrily extended out its left hand and grabbed Xiao Yus blade so he could no longer move around. At the same time, allowing the sharp blade to slightly cut its hand before it launched out another blue ray of light with its right hand cutting across.

Xiao Yu resolutely gave up the withered bones blade and quickly backed away. His chest was slightly nicked by the blades tip. Thankfully, the black scales armor received and absorbed the majority of the force, and he only sustained minor flesh wounds. Xiao Yu didnt care about his bloody chest. With a thought, the light of the space ring suddenly flashed, and the stabilizing wind bead appeared in his hand, gathering two light blue wind blades and shooting toward the enemy.

After it spotted the two fast wind blades flying towards its body, the goblin leader swung the large machete in its hands and slashed at the wind blades fearlessly. Suddenly a hurricane erupted, and the extremely powerful wind blades were split in half, while the goblin leader staggered back six to seven steps in a row and it almost fell to the ground. Xiao Yu used the power of the wind bead again to materialize a sand spear, and with a wave of his hand, it shot out with a whoosh. At the same time, a fireball was condensed in the palm of his other hand and was thrown toward the opponent at a tricky angle.

The goblin leader awkwardly dodged the powerful sand spear but was still directly hit by the fireball. Its flank got covered in blood, and its leather armor was completely broken apart. The monster was severely injured by this blow, and when it saw its own subordinates falling down one by one, it became furious. A violent and bloodthirsty light shone from its eyes, and its skin swelled up rapidly.

Seeing this, Xiao Yus expression changed greatly, this is bad; its going berserk!

He swooped down, rolled, and picked up the bone blade that had fallen to the ground, preparing to slash at the goblin leader again, but the latters onslaught had already followed him. Xiao Yu was already inferior in terms of strength, to begin with, and now that the goblin had doubled in speed and power by activating its rage skill, how could he resist?

Xiao Yu didnt dare to and tried his best to avoid the fast and fierce attack. His eyes reflected the blue light of the machete as it was getting closer and closer, almost falling on his face. His pupils shrank suddenly, and he murmured to himself: its too fast; I cant dodge!
