Dark Blood Path

Chapter 39: Killing the Goblin Leader

Bullet time!

Xiao Yu was not an indecisive individual; especially when it came down to his own life and death. He immediately used his new innate ability without hesitation. Suddenly, there was a bang noise in his head, and he found himself back in that ghostly and mysterious state. His breathing and heartbeats stopped, and as if he had entered the mystical underworld, everything around him was calm and still.

The goblin leaders eyes were bloodshot, and its face was ferocious. Its figure was originally extremely fast; however, the blue machete light that was previously difficult to distinguish with the naked eye was now approaching him at a slow speed. At this moment, it was no more than ten centimeters away from his head. Xiao Yu resisted the intense pain tearing through his body, exerted all of his strength, and kicked his legs down. Then, as if he were traveling in a weightless space, he flew up to one side lightly and slowly, avoiding the deadly attack. At the same time, he forced his right arm to move, and the blade on it slowly slashed at the goblins left shoulder.

The goblin leader actually reacted, and its weapon turned slowly, and the blue light streak slightly changed direction. Xiao Yu felt a stabbing pain in his head, and the bullet time was lifted.

In the next moment!

The blue machete light streak and the gray-white sword collided together. Xiao Yu flew upside down like a kite with a broken string amidst the exceedingly loud noise of the collision. He fell to the ground, rolled more than ten meters, and then hit a big tree before stopping. The tree seemed like it was smashed into pieces by a cannonball!

All of that took time to describe, but none of the individuals there had the ability to react. Even Han Kexin and the others couldnt tell what had happened. They only saw the flash of the blue machete, and Xiao Yu was sent out flying.

Acting in the bullet time state, I can temporarily break through the shackles of my bodys limit and forcibly increase my speed to three times the normal limit. I didnt expect that the goblin leader in the berserk state would have the ability to barely react

Xiao Yus condition was very bad at the moment. In the state of bullet time, breaking through the limit of his body to move will not only consume a lot of spiritual energy but also hurt his body, and a heavy blow at this time will undoubtedly make the situation even worse. Due to the enormous strain, several veins ruptured during that state, and blood splintered out of his pores. When Xiao Yu sat up, he almost turned into a bloody figure, and his eyes felt so painful that it was difficult to open them. There was tearing pain everywhere in his body.

The blade in his hands felt strange, and when he lifted it up, he heard a cracking sound in his ear. The bone blade split from the middle, and the upper half of the grayish-white blade fell to the ground and got stuck into the soil. The goblin leaders blow severed the weapon abruptly, and he sensed a wave of stiffness in his right arm, as well as unusual wrist pain. His arm was most likely broken.

On the other hand, the goblin leader had a stab wound on its left shoulder. The cut was quite deep, severing blood vessels and even reaching the bones, and its goblins unique crimson blood spilled outward. Even though it had managed to knock Xiao Yu into the air, it was still seriously injured as well. And under that injury, its speed and momentum were slightly weaker than before, yet, with it being in the berserk state, the goblin was still far stronger than normal.

The large tree deformed by Xiao Yu was still shaking and gave no time for him to breathe, it was about to fall when he heard it creak, and he immediately swung his half blade and chopped it off.

Xiao Yu dropped the broken blade, slammed the ground with his left hand, and awkwardly flung himself back to avoid a sudden attack. The goblin missed its target, raised its machete, and slashed once again. He was forced into an unavoidable situation, and just as he clenched his teeth and resolved himself to fight it to the death, a short spear engulfed in flames shot at them, forcing the goblin leader to halt its movements and back away from that powerful flaming projectile.

The short burning spear flew past the goblin, and the blow was taken by a nearby goblin warrior instead. Its chest was pierced with a fist-sized hole, and the internal organs inside were completely scorched by the blazing hot flames, with not a drop of blood flowing out. The short spear continued to pierce through two goblin slaves before being lodged in a large tree, where the flame quickly spread.

Xiao Yu, who was about to use bullet time again, was greatly surprised as he really decided to risk his life in that instant. Fortunately for him, the attack came in a timely manner. Looking in the direction of the short spear, he happened to see a slender, thin and beautiful figureit was Yunyun.

Did she evolve? The short spear was obviously thrown by her, and it looks powerful. It should be an attack-oriented innate skill.

Fuck you, eat my axe!

Wang Chao, who was lying on the ground, saw that the battle situation was not looking good for Xiao Yu, so he flung his huge axe out. As soon as the goblin reached toward the axe and parried it in the air, it felt a figure flying over its head again. Jiang Xiaowen fell from the sky with the green spear in her hands and stabbed toward the monster. At the same time, Han Kexin launched a surprise attack from behind.

Shiny dust particles flew down from the air, and the goblin leader was taken aback as the blood-red color in its eyes quickly receded. Jiang Xiaowens Dream dust ability actually got rid of the monsters rage skill, and just when it grew dazed, the sharp green spear pierced fiercely into its chest.

Jiang Xiaowen was overjoyed, thinking that her sneak attack had succeeded! However, dream dust was a kind of mental attack after all, and the effect would be greatly weakened for existences whose mental strength was higher than her own. As a result, she had a moment of distraction.

During this split second, the goblin leader grabbed the green spear that was about to pierce its heart and vigorously yanked it out. After spinning in a half circle, the monster threw her directly into the bushes amidst the girls screams. Then, Jiang Xiaowen fell straight down upon colliding with a large tree.

Han Kexin was covered in a blood mist as she hustled forward, her wolf claw weapon twirling, its cold light flashed, and she attacked from different angles, yet each one of her attacks missed. Her combat experience was not rich, and she was completely suppressed in only three to five rounds of exchange. Finally, the goblin slashed out with its machete, and she was slashed to the ground as she cried out in pain. Anyone else who suffered that kind of injury wouldve surely died, but Han Kexin immediately urged the blood mist around her to rush towards the wound, healing it up in an instant.

Xiao Yu stood up, holding the wind bead in his hands, and a cyan wind blade flew towards the goblin leader who was about to give Han Kexin a fatal blow. The goblin cut the wind blade down directly, and in a fit of rage, it decided to deal with this major threat first. So it rushed towards Xiao Yu yet again with a kick of its legs.

Miss Han!

Xiao Yu yelled, then his and her eyes met, and the two completed eye contact in an instant, reading the hidden meaning from each others eyes. Han Kexin, who fell on the ground, stretched out her hand and pointed it toward the goblin leader, whose back was now facing her. The ring on her slender finger began to glow red.

Blast flame!

The goblin slashed down with its weapon, only this time Xiao Yu didnt dodge. Instead, he immediately released the power of the stabilizing wind bead, and a powerful gust of wind flared up around him, forming a small vortex of wind and sand. The wind and sand tornado had so many small wind blades twisting and turning inside it, and the goblin leader couldnt dodge it in time. Numerous wind blade cuts appeared all over its body in the blink of an eye, and just when it was about to retreat, a scorching wave of heat suddenly came from behind.

It was startled, and when it looked back, it saw that the massive fireball was close at hand; it was enraged but couldnt dodge. It could only defend with the machete.

boom!

Amidst that deafening explosion, the flames soared into the sky, and the ground was dug out by the force of the explosion. The goblin leader, who was covered in bruises and scars, was tossed out like a piece of paper and directly fell upon the wind and sand tornado. The blades around the tornado started piercing its body in the air.

The wind and sand tornado gradually dissipated, and Xiao Yu, who was covered in blood, held a two-handed sword in his hand, and the sword fully pierced through the monsters heart.

Xiao Yu was feeling extremely tired as he fell down on his butt.

Han Kexin also breathed a sigh of relief, its finally dead; you killed it!

Four to five balls of light appeared, and one of them was a huge ball of essence. It floated out and was divided into several parts, which were mainly absorbed by Xiao Yu and Han Kexin, while Jiang Xiaowen also got a bit. Han Kexin absorbed one-third of that essence of energy, and the total amount of that energy was no worse than a dozen elementary monsters worth. In one leap, she, who was only in the early stage and a step away from the middle stage, directly entered the late elementary stage, and her strength more than doubled.

After Xiao Yu absorbed the rest, his power became much more consolidated.

The goblin leader was finally killed, while seventy to eighty goblins were also slaughtered. The rest dared not stay and fled in all directions, hiding deep in the woods. The goblin warriors were almost entirely dead, and the remaining goblin slaves could no longer pose a threat, so they didnt bother to chase them down.

In this battle, more than 180 goblins were eliminated, with 14 causalities on the human side.

After Jiang Xiaowen got thrown away by the goblin leader, she was scratched in many places, her tender skin was cut, in which blood flowed out, and her hair was messy, full of dirt and dead leaves. She was still dizzy from her head hitting that tree, and there was a large bruise on her forehead where a large bump bulged, while a small trace of blood was hanging from the corner of her mouth. She almost shed tears from the pain, but these were all just minor wounds, and she didnt suffer from a fatal injury.

Xiao Yu, why are you covered all in blood? Jiang Xiaowen staggered over, then looked at Xiao Yus horrifying appearance and hurriedly said to Han Kexin, Teacher Han, treat Xiao Yu first!

Han Kexin walked over to his side and carefully helped him up before pushing the blood mist to heal his body.

Xiao Yu stretched out his right hand, Please, heal my arm first.

Xiao Yus right arm was almost useless; even with the recovery ability of the elementary level, it would still take from five to eight days for it to fully heal. But that period was too long, and without his right arm, his fighting power will be greatly reduced.

Han Kexin understood what he meant and immediately urged the blood mist to heal his arm little by little, Your newly acquired innate skill appears to be extremely dangerous; you have gravely pushed your body this time.

Exchanging some pain and injuries for the power to break through the limit is a good deal. Xiao Yu felt that his arm was slowly recovering, and he turned his gaze to Yun Yun, You also have successfully advanced, and your ability looks quite powerful. Congratulations, Yun Yun.

The girl looked joyful, and raised the short spear in her hand. Her right palm then turned red like ruby and began steaming slowly toward the weapon. This type of flame was very strange; it only burned the spears exterior layer and didnt burn or harm the short spears body.

My ability is called fire elemental enhancement, which can impart firepower to objects, resulting in increased destructive power, but the duration is very short, only lasting for a few seconds, and can only be used for a single projectile attack, unable to be sustained in a prolonged melee fight.

Xiao Yus eyes lit up, Fire elemental enhancement?

This skill had extremely high destructive power, the same as rampage and rock formation. In his previous life, most people obtained these precious skills through rare inheritance crystals. And even after five years had passed, that skill remained as much valuable. Yunyun was undoubtedly very fortunate to get it in the early stage.

Han Kexins face gradually turned pale, and Xiao Yu felt that his arm had almost recovered, so he let her rest: You have reached your limit, dont push yourself any further. Lets pack up the spoils and head back.

(TN: the two-handed sword is most probably the weapon Wang Yunfei used before he died)
