709. A Sword on the Wall / 710. Successfully Obtaining the Sword

The vampire also used a secret technique, increasing his speed, and the two quickly clashed.

This time, the vampire did not dare underestimate his opponent and fought with everything he had.

His fist techniques were strange, and his moves were bizarre, yet incredibly powerful. Every punch seemed to carry the crushing weight of a thousand pounds.

Every stomp felt like an earthquake shaking the mountains, and his speed was so fast that even Izayoi could barely react.

Izayoi dodged while trying to think of a solution, but he could find none.

This vampire was incredibly powerful, and every one of his moves was lethal.

He kept attacking Izayoi.

Gradually, Izayoi’s clothes became tattered, revealing his muscular body, yet he remained uninjured.

The vampire inwardly cursed at the sight. If this continued, he would eventually be killed by him.

Gritting his teeth, he used a secret art. His whole body became thinner, his originally pale skin became even fairer, his hair turned black, and he grew much taller.

This was his ultimate life-saving move. Once used, anyone facing it would die, and die completely.

This move consumed an enormous amount of true essence, so he had rarely used it.

After using it, he would remain weakened for a long time.

Die! he roared, swinging his arm and smashing a fist toward Izayoi. The power of this punch was extraordinary. The air exploded, twisting violently.

Bang! The fist struck Izayoi squarely in the chest.

Izayoi was knocked three steps backward.

The force of that punch was immense, yet Izayoi had only retreated three steps.

But those three steps had nearly shattered his internal organs.

Seeing the vampire weaken, Izayoi rushed before him and split his body in two with a single sword strike, killing the vampire. Blade.

A Sword on the Wall

Izayoi spotted a room in the distance. He felt that there had to be treasure inside, so he ran toward it. When he reached the door, he stopped. After confirming there was no danger inside, he hurried in and discovered countless high-grade pills.

Izayoi was thrilled. He had never seen so many pills before, and they were all high-grade pills. He quickly stored them away.

Just then, a Maneater Flower appeared before him. Its body was extremely thick, and its eyes glowed red. Seeing the pills in Izayoi’s hand, it let out an angry roar and pounced at him.

Izayoi hurriedly dodged, but the Maneater Flower’s attack still struck his body.

Cracks appeared across the surface of his skin, and a spray of blood shot out. Corrosive liquid also flowed from around the wound, causing intense pain.

The pain nearly made Izayoi pass out. He quickly circulated the inner power within his body to resist the poison.

Though the poison was powerful, Izayoi held on. After finally resisting its effects, he looked toward the Maneater Flower.

His heart was full of rage. He had finally found a safe place, only for something like this to be guarding it. Damn it.

Hmph! Izayoi sneered disdainfully, put away the pills, and charged straight at the Maneater Flower.

The Maneater Flower knew that the young man before it was not easy to deal with, but it had no intention of retreating. Instead, it decided to fight him to the death.

Bang! The Maneater Flower collided with Izayoi in a massive impact. Its body was sent flying, while Izayoi did not move an inch.

Hmph! You overestimate yourself! Izayoi said with a cold laugh.

Roar! The Maneater Flower let out an enraged roar.

Its body lunged at Izayoi again, while Izayoi did not remain idle either, rapidly throwing punches at it.

Bang! Their fists collided repeatedly in midair, producing dull thuds as their blows crossed.

The two figures moved constantly through the air, but Izayoi held the advantage. The Maneater Flower was repeatedly driven back, and Izayoi’s Iron Sand Palm struck it until it spat out blood.

A vicious look appeared on Izayoi’s face. He accelerated toward the Maneater Flower, reached its side, and drove his right foot hard into its abdomen…

The Maneater Flower let out a miserable scream as its body was kicked away.

Izayoi immediately chased after it, grabbed its tail, pinned its head beneath his foot, and drove his knee into its stomach.

He slammed into it with force, but Izayoi did not kill it. After all, it was a living creature. He merely wanted to vent the fury in his heart through the beating, his fists raining down without pause.

The Maneater Flower’s belly had been smashed apart, white intestines spilling out from within. Its abdomen had been pierced through, and its intestines oozed out as well, moving incredibly slowly as though they could snap at any moment.

Izayoi’s gaze turned cold. He glanced at the Maneater Flower on the ground, then raised his foot, preparing to drive his knee into it again and crush its head beneath his foot.

Seeing Izayoi’s indifferent face, the Maneater Flower suddenly felt a chill sweep over it. This human looked like a killing machine no matter how it looked at him, and it thought of death.

Boom! A thunderous blast rang out, and the Maneater Flower’s head was blown into minced flesh, blood splattering everywhere.

Izayoi looked at the bloodstains before him, his gaze growing colder and colder.

Successfully Obtained the Sword

After confirming that the Maneater Flower was truly dead, Izayoi left the room and entered the castle corridor. Just then, a guard clad in crystal armor appeared before him. The guard charged straight at him and thrust the spear in its hand toward him.

Izayoi hurriedly dodged, but his left arm was still struck. Looking down at the wound, he saw that it had turned slightly black, making his expression darken further.

Izayoi knew he was no match for this guard and decided to flee. However, the guard had no intention of letting him go.

The Crystal Armor Guard roared, then charged at Izayoi while swinging its enormous weapon.

Izayoi tried to evade, but the Crystal Armor Guard was too fast. He had no way to dodge and could only endure the attack head-on.

Bang! The Crystal Armor Guard’s attack struck Izayoi’s shoulder. His left arm immediately turned black, and drops of black blood flowed from the wound.

Heh heh! The Crystal Armor Guard mocked, "I never expected trash like you to fear me. If you’re afraid, why did you come here to challenge us? Why not surrender obediently and let us take you back? Otherwise, I wouldn’t mind chopping your body into pieces and feeding it to dogs."

Izayoi gritted his teeth but said nothing, silently enduring the pain.

Heh heh, what a stubborn person. Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for showing no mercy. A cold smile appeared on the Crystal Armor Guard’s face as it continued attacking.

Izayoi kept dodging, but his injuries grew more serious. He had begun to feel dizzy, and his legs trembled slightly.

Finally, under the Crystal Armor Guard’s attacks, Izayoi’s left arm bled relentlessly. He collapsed straight onto the ground and lay there staring at the Crystal Armor Guard.

His gaze toward the Crystal Armor Guard grew even colder. His eyes turned scarlet, as though something inside him was about to break free.

Roar! Izayoi growled. His eyes turned dark green, his pupils shrinking continuously as though they might burst out.

The Crystal Armor Guard was startled by this and hurriedly retreated several steps.

"What kind of monster are you? Why do you have eyes like that? And why does your body contain such a terrifying aura?"

"I don’t care what kind of monster you are. Today, you will die here. No matter who comes, you won’t escape." The Crystal Armor Guard raised its weapon, preparing to kill Izayoi.

At that moment, Izayoi picked up his sword, stepped forward, and charged toward the Crystal Armor Guard.

Seeing Izayoi rush at it, the Crystal Armor Guard smiled disdainfully.

"I don’t care who you are. You’re far too slow. I don’t even need to dodge." With that, the Crystal Armor Guard raised its weapon and chopped down at Izayoi.

Their weapons collided, and Izayoi’s sword snapped apart. Although it had been a fine sword, it could not withstand the sharpness of the Crystal Armor Guard’s weapon.

Seeing this result, Izayoi was shocked. He continued advancing, trying to close the distance with the Crystal Armor Guard.

Bang! Another slash struck Izayoi’s shoulder, and he stumbled forward.

Thud! Izayoi fell to the ground. Blood from his right shoulder spilled across the floor, staining it red.

Just then, he noticed a sword hanging on the wall beside him. That sword seemed far from ordinary.

A Room Filled with Pills

Thinking of this, Izayoi wanted to take that sword. Naturally, the Crystal Armor Guard would not let him succeed so easily. It rushed before him and swung its sword down at him. Izayoi rolled aside and dodged the Crystal Armor Guard’s attack. Just as he regained his footing, before he could catch his breath, the Crystal Armor Guard’s second attack came at him, even faster than before. He hurriedly evaded again, narrowly avoiding the attack.

However, the Crystal Armor Guard was still unwilling to give up and continued attacking him relentlessly, its longsword slashing across Izayoi’s body time and again.

Izayoi did not know what to do. He could only dodge the Crystal Armor Guard’s attacks and counterattack again. In this way, he avoided the Crystal Armor Guard’s attacks over and over.

Izayoi knew that he could not kill this guard without a sword, so he swiftly moved toward the sword on the wall. He had to get it and use it against the guard.

Unfortunately, before he could reach the wall, the Crystal Armor Guard kicked him back.

Bang! Izayoi crashed heavily onto the ground. He raised his head to look at the Crystal Armor Guard, his eyes filled with unwillingness.

At that moment, a powerful force erupted from within Izayoi’s body, suddenly increasing his speed and allowing him to successfully seize the sword.

Holding the sword in his hand, Izayoi found it increasingly miraculous. This was a divine weapon. Not only could it block an opponent’s weapon attacks, but it also possessed offensive power of its own.

With this sword in hand, Izayoi was extremely excited. It could not only stop enemy attacks but even defend on its own. With it, his combat strength would rise greatly, and he would no longer have to defend so passively as before.

Holding the sword, Izayoi charged before the Crystal Armor Guard and swung it at him.

The Crystal Armor Guard was not afraid of him at all and still swung its longsword as it charged at him.

Bang! With a loud crash, the sword and blade collided, grinding fiercely against each other.

Squelch! The Crystal Armor Guard’s longsword pierced directly through Izayoi’s left arm.

Looking at his arm impaled by the sword, Izayoi showed no fear. Instead, he smiled. Sharp pain surged through his left arm, but he did not cry out even once.

The Crystal Armor Guard was somewhat surprised at the sight of Izayoi like this.

Could this person’s endurance really be that incredible? But the thought vanished in an instant. A cold expression returned to its face, and it charged at Izayoi again.

It walked toward Izayoi step by step.

Seeing it draw closer and closer, Izayoi showed no fear. His eyes remained fixed on the Crystal Armor Guard, the corners of his lips lifting into a mocking smile.

That expression made the Crystal Armor Guard extremely displeased.

The Crystal Armor Guard thrust its longsword at Izayoi once more, intending to turn him into minced meat in a single strike.

But at that moment, it noticed the mockery on Izayoi’s face.

A powerful light radiated from Izayoi’s sword. At that moment, the sword seemed capable of cutting through anything as Izayoi released a wave of sword energy.

The sword energy carried world-destroying power as it struck the Crystal Guard and killed it.

Before Izayoi could celebrate, two Crystal Armor Guards appeared behind him and kicked him flying. He fell to the ground, injured.

Killing Two Crystal Armor Guards

Izayoi quickly took out a pill from his clothes and swallowed it. The moment it entered his mouth, he felt a warm current fill his body. Not only that, but the injuries on his body began recovering at a visible rate.

A pale blue light also began to emerge within his body.

The blue light enveloped his entire body, making him look extremely mysterious.

Seeing the two Crystal Armor Guards walking toward him again, he quickly took out a longsword and gripped it in his hand.

Although he already bore a wound, he still refused to give up resisting.

I have to make it back alive! Izayoi drew his sword and charged at the two Crystal Armor Guards.

However, the two guards were simply too powerful and directly swept him away. Izayoi fell to the ground, unable to believe it.

At that moment, one Crystal Armor Guard swung its sword and rushed at Izayoi, slashing him across the shoulder.

Half his clothing was cut away, blood pouring out as the pain made him cry out.

Before the blood on his body had even stopped flowing, the second Crystal Armor Guard charged over with its longsword raised.

Izayoi hurriedly climbed to his feet and used his hand to block the sword.

But his arm was still cut, blood dripping continuously.

He gritted his teeth against the pain and continued fighting.

Izayoi fought while retreating, constantly dodging their attacks.

These two Crystal Armor Guards were simply too formidable, and their bodies were incredibly hard. Even his weapon could barely cut through them.

Just as he had expected, his body was knocked flying again before crashing to the ground.

Pfft! His body slammed heavily into the ground, and blood sprayed out once more.

At that moment, the two Crystal Armor Guards charged at him again.
