C12 Blood Spirit

Just as I was about to give up resisting, Saner suddenly raised his head from the coffin, and shouted at me: "Look at that fire."

I narrowed my eyes that were swollen like steamed buns, lying in the air and looking towards Saner's direction.

In my blurry vision, I saw that among the six different colored flames, there was actually … He was sitting on a white silhouette.

That figure was hidden within the flames and blurry. If it wasn't for Saner's reminder, I wouldn't have noticed them at all.

"So that's how it is. So that's how it is."

I muttered to myself as I fiercely pressed on the Heavenly Crying's hilt. Then, I raised my hand and threw the Heavenly Crying into the flames.

Only Saner and I know this secret. There was a groove hidden on the Heavenly Crying's hilt, and there was a thread hidden inside that was made from an unknown substance. It was also extremely sharp, like a Heavenly Crying, and it was able to cut through gold and jade.

With these threads, the Heavenly Crying could be thrown out like a knife and be taken back.

The golem didn't seem to have expected me to use this move, but it was already too late.

My legs spun in the air and I immediately stood up from the ground. I brandished the Heavenly Crying in my hands, creating a beautiful line as I chased after the flames.

The flames were suspended on the walls of the cave as if they were unmoving targets, while the Heavenly Crying was as fast as lightning. I knew that this might be my last attack, so I used up all of my strength to dodge the golem's attack while simultaneously attacking the Heavenly Crying towards the flame.

"Chi!"

When I withdrew the Heavenly Crying from the flames, I discovered that the tip of the Heavenly Crying's blade had returned with a worm that was as white as jade and as big as an adult's arm.

The insect looked like a silkworm, but I didn't have enough time to look at it closely. I kicked the tip of the Heavenly Crying's blade, and the Heavenly Crying flew out again to attack the yellow flame after circling it a few times in the air.

"Chi!"

I hit the yellow fire again, and when I looked back, as I expected, the yellow and blue doll was still and lifeless.

Behind my back, the black doll waved its arm and swept towards my back. When the sharp wind behind my ears sounded, I no longer had the time to break a single flame. Under my light control, the Heavenly Crying circled around my neck and pierced into the eyes of the puppet behind me.

"Chi!"

Under my sudden move, the black doll paused for a few seconds, but that was already enough. I immediately bent over and rolled forward, the Heavenly Crying that was stuck in the hole in the puppet's eye, once again turned into a meteor and flew towards the next flame.

The three puppets had already stopped moving, but my pressure was gradually increasing. The fire bug seemed to have a human nature, when it felt that the Heavenly Crying in my hand was a deadly threat, it actually controlled the puppet to attack me more and more fiercely.

There were still three puppets left, red, white and black. These three puppets represented Heaven, Earth and Asura, and with their fierce attacks, I was gradually forced into a corner. The violent movements also increased the consumption of my stamina, and gradually, my body started to slow down.

Another strike hit my back, causing me to stagger forward a few steps. After my vision went black, a mouthful of blood sprayed out, landing right on the Heavenly Crying.

"Buzz!"

Although I had always known that Heavenly Crying was an extraordinary dagger, I had never used blood to wipe away the Heavenly Crying's wounds. In fact, other than blood from the marten, I had never seen a blood stain on a Heavenly Crying before.

However, in this most critical moment, the Heavenly Crying was accidentally stained with my blood.

But after the Heavenly Crying let out a dull sound, it jumped out by itself.

"This …"

I looked at the Heavenly Crying in front of me in a daze, not knowing how to explain. But the Heavenly Crying's next action made me suddenly exclaim: "Blood spirit, the Heavenly Crying actually has a blood spirit?"

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the Wu Country's people took Mo Xie and her wife for a strange stone, and King Chu found out that he ordered the couple to forge a sword for him. Unfortunately, even if the husband and wife tried their best, it would still be difficult to smelt a strange stone and forge a treasured sword.

Night, Mo Xie threw herself into the Sword Crafting Furnace. The strange stone caused Mo Xie's soul to bleed and she eventually turned it into a treasured sword.

The capable general had presented the female sword to King Chu, but Lord Chu was too greedy to ask for the male sword. If the powerful general refused, Lord Chu would kill him, and at that time, the female sword would turn into a peacock and circle around the palace three times before flying towards the southeast.

Over ten years later, the son of the Heaven General grew up, carried a great sword on his back, and went to the Chu King Palace to kill him for revenge.

The later generations all said that the female sword had a spirit. With a spirit artifact, one could transform into a strange beast.

However, I never thought that the Heavenly Crying was also a Blood Spirit Stone. I've mentioned before that Ou Zhizi originally wanted to forge a sword out of the Heavenly Crying, but after casting it three times, it turned into the dagger of the Heavenly Crying. Then, who exactly was the Blood Soul Essence used to create a spirit of the Heavenly Crying?

The Heavenly Crying was jumping in front of me, as if there was a ferocious beast trying to break free from its cage.

I saw the abnormality of the Heavenly Crying and was ecstatic in my heart. Whoever was not greedy for life, who was not afraid of death, as long as there was a thread of hope in front of me, I would firmly grasp onto it. To survive, not only must they live well, they must seek revenge.

I stretched out my hand with difficulty, wanting to hold the Heavenly Crying, but realized that the Heavenly Crying was as hot as burning coal, it was so hot that white smoke rose from my hand, and I was wailing endlessly.

"Ah …"

I yelled at the sky, but I didn't let go of the Heavenly Crying because I knew... I want to live.

The sky, the ground, and the three Asura puppets didn't seem to have expected this kind of change. After being stunned for a long time, they started to attack me once again.

What a pity! They were too late.

My hand that was being burned by the Heavenly Crying had finally grasped the Heavenly Crying, and this time, I believe that the Heavenly Crying will not disappoint me.

After the Heavenly Crying spun a beautiful flower blade in my hand, I used the last move that he taught me.

I moved like lightning, and in that instant, I shared 72 slashes, which was the number of Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns. After I brushed past the three puppets, they stopped moving.

"Chi, chi, chi!"

The three flickering flames exploded one by one in the muffled sound. The three motionless puppets also slowly fell apart, eventually collapsing into a pile of debris.

"Brother."

Saner, who had just released his control, immediately flipped over from the coffin lid and pounced towards me, who was about to collapse on the ground.

I fell into Saner's embrace with a pale face. Just as I grinned, I realised that Saner and I were both falling down from the sky.

Luckily Saner was at the bottom, otherwise I would have definitely fallen half-dead. After all, I am currently a weak person, am I not?

From how I was cut four times by the golem, it wasn't hard for me to guess why Saner was lying on the coffin lid with his hands and feet bleeding. It was because he had also lost six of his senses, and why Saner wasn't able to break out of the Six Apertures Maze Realm like me.

It was a good thing that after he managed to clear his six senses, Saner didn't sustain any major injuries other than a slight loss of blood. After I climbed back up from his body, I placed my hand on his shoulder.

Perhaps, we are finally coming to an end of this lifetime of unforgettable journey.

However … Is the world really as we expected?
