Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 188 Buried in the Forest (3k)

——Crack!

The deformed tree was chopped in half, but the "double swords" did not feel like they had hit a real person. The blades in his hands were not stained with blood, and the enemy disappeared without a trace in an incredible way.

A ferocious look gradually appeared on “Shuangdao’s” face.

"Damn, sneaky thing!" "Double Knife" cursed angrily, and he quickly pulled back the double knives in his hands to block behind him.

He had become quite skilled at it - every time an attack like this failed, the enemy would suddenly attack him from behind, causing him to suffer many injuries and bleed a lot.

This time, "Double Blades" turned around almost subconsciously, and at the moment he turned around, he caught a glimpse of the green light again from the corner of his eye.

——Squeak! The sharp sound of breaking through the air continued to be heard, and Index's figure suddenly appeared from behind the hunched tree, and the phantom dagger pierced directly into the back of the "double swords".

This time, the dagger pierced his back without any hindrance, all the way to the handle.

Then, scarlet flowers bloomed from the wound, and the power of "destruction" exploded in the flesh of the "Double Blades".

“Cough cough… cough…” “Shuangdao”’s eyes went dark and a warm feeling rose in his throat.

Feeling a sharp pain coming from his back, “Shuangdao” almost lost his balance and staggered suddenly.

The heat in his throat became more and more swollen, almost making it difficult for him to breathe. He finally coughed violently several times, coughing out a sticky, black blood clot from his throat.

It was not until this moment that Black Fang, codenamed "Double Blades", finally realized that the enemy's previous inducements were actually paving the way for this sneak attack!

Although his vital parts were severely damaged, as a "battle-hardened warrior", he still had enough strength to fight back.

——Swish! The "double swords" immediately turned their handles upside down and performed a circular slash, intending to drive away the enemy who was approaching the inner circle.

Suddenly, "Shuangdao" heard the sound of flesh being cut and smelled a bloody smell.

The ghostly enemy suddenly groaned, as if he had been cut in the waist and abdomen by the rotating slash. Then, the "double swords" heard a few crisp and sharp stomping sounds, and the enemy seemed to have climbed up the tree and deliberately distanced himself.

——I succeeded! I finally succeeded!

"Shuangdao" showed surprise on his face, he finally hit that tough enemy!
That enemy... that woman with a elusive figure and ghostly movements, that damn believer of Red Lotus... She is injured now, and her future movements will inevitably be affected. If she wants to launch a sneak attack on me again, it will not be so difficult to deal with her!
"Shuangdao" thought excitedly in his heart, but the next moment, a slender, scarlet fire snake appeared in front of him.

No, it was not a snake, but a whip, a long whip covered with thorns and barbs!
——Snap! The whip suddenly lashed towards the "double swords" and hit the wound that was previously pierced by the dagger accurately.

Suddenly, the wound that had stopped bleeding opened again, and foul-smelling blood gushed out.

This made "Shuangdao" suddenly realize another thing.

That strange woman, she not only has that strange dagger! She also has an even stranger thorn whip!
Fear emerged on the face of "Shuangdao". He also saw that the blood gushing out of the wound caused by the burning scarlet whip was drawn to the thorns on the whip by an unknown force and transported along the whip to the end.

——Sucking blood! This weird whip is sucking blood!

"Shuangdao" soon discovered the clue, but the massive blood loss in a short period of time made his body extremely weak, and he was unable to launch an effective counterattack.

——Snap! While the "double blades" were stunned, the blood whip had already lashed over violently again.

The thorns pierced deeply into the flesh of the "double swords", and a large amount of blood was infused into the blood whip and transmitted to the end of it.

"Shuangdao" finally felt deeply the feeling of his body being hollowed out.

After being hit by the whip twice in succession, "Shuangdao"'s body began to tremble uncontrollably, his perception became blurred, and his movements became slow.

And in his field of vision, at the end of the scarlet whip, a green light flashed instantly, and the ghostly figure finally appeared again.

However, there was only a narrow tear on her clothes at the waist, and the skin underneath had no signs of injury at all!
"She...she is not injured..." "Shuangdao" was suspicious and thought about various possibilities.

While he was lost in complicated thoughts, Index had already drawn out the phantom dagger again.

The sharp sound of breaking through the air came swiftly along with Index's footsteps on the wind. In the blink of an eye, the illusory dagger was already infinitely close to the neck of the "Double Blades".

——Swish! Just when the "double swords" were completely unavoidable, the dagger pierced deeply into his throat.

Blood gushed out from the broken part. Index quickly pulled out the dagger and jumped to a safe distance. At the same time, she switched hands to the "Black Thorn Blood Whip" and ignited the blood attached to it with the power of [Red Lotus]. The burning scarlet long whip was then swung towards the "double swords" again with incredible speed.

This time, the "Double Blades" completely lost any ability to resist, and the blood gushing out of his body was "usurped" exponentially by the strange blood whip, which made him weaker and closer to the brink of death.

Finally, when she realized that the "Blood Whip" had taken away enough blood, Index once again put away the whip, switched hands to a deadly dagger, and stabbed at the vital points of the "double swords".

——Poof! This time, the phantom dagger pierced through the forehead of "Double Blades", completely depriving him of his last chance of survival.

“Shuangdao’s” eyes bulged out, his face was ferocious with an expression of disbelief, and he fell straight down.

……

After confirming that the "Double Blades" were completely dead, Intis put away her dagger and came to his body. She began to meditate on the art of "Blood Sacrifice" in her mind, and the same dark red ball appeared in her palm.

The dark red ball and the misty threads generated by the outline of the "double-blade" corpse on the ground gradually connected together. The corpse gradually turned into water, turned into spirituality and dissipated, while the ball became more and more swollen and more and more scarlet.

Finally, when the body of "Double Blades" completely disappeared, Index stared at the scarlet ball in her hand, and after thinking for a moment, she pressed it into her heart.

"Ugh uh..." Intense pain surged up, and Index couldn't help but let out a low groan.

However, she also felt that real sense of power constantly surging into her body.

This process lasted for about three minutes. When the intense feeling of pain gradually dissipated, Index's frown slowly relaxed and an expression of fanaticism and joy appeared on his face.

"Hmm...power...new power..."

Intis whispered.

At the same time, she also heard a familiar voice coming from behind her.

"Have you mastered 'Flesh and Blood Sacrifice'?"

With a click, another figure that had been hiding for a long time jumped down from the tree behind Index.

Luo Xiu witnessed the entire second half of the battle and was quite satisfied with Index's performance.

She has already mastered the use of "Phantom Dagger" and "Black Thorn Blood Whip", and can also maximize her advantages as a [Red Lotus] transcendent who is the incarnation of "Creep Cat".

Intis... with a little training, she is indeed quite suitable for fighting... No wonder those players gave her the title of "Night Slayer" in her previous life...

As Luo Xiu thought so, Intis in front of him, after seeing her "lord" coming, bowed to Luo Xiu and saluted as a servant, and said with a pious look on her face:
"Yes, my Lord... I have mastered the art of 'flesh and blood sacrifice'."

"..."

"Very good." Luo Xiu nodded.

"This way, you will be one step closer to becoming a true 'Shadow of Slaughter'."

"..."

When Intis heard her "Lord" say this, a faint blush appeared on her face, which was an expression of strong excitement and fanaticism.

Luo Xiu looked at her calmly, and at the same time opened the panel to detect her current condition.

At this time, Index's "Destroyer" career level has reached lv.24, which is two levels higher than before.

This is already quite fast for an indigenous NPC... Luo Xiu thought.

This is exactly one of the abilities of "Blood Sacrifice". Using the flesh and blood of the extraordinary as nutrients can not only unlock the use of many powerful forbidden techniques, but also quickly increase strength.

However, this method of improvement always has a corresponding "price" - for example, the "Lord of Blood Sacrifice" was able to reach his current strength by sacrificing a large amount of flesh and blood of extraordinary people, but he was also deeply affected by the backlash of those powers.

Luo Xiu thought that this was not something Index should consider at this stage. She was still a long way from reaching that step.

Luo Xiu stopped thinking about it, his thoughts returned to the present, and he slowly said to Intis:

"Now, we have dealt with all the 'Black Fangs' that have entered the dense forest, Intis."

"And their leader, the 'Fang Chief'... is still outside the dense forest, waiting for the 'Black Fangs' that have entered the forest to send him information."

"My target is that 'Fang Shou'... Only after we have truly dealt with him can we return to Sina City with peace of mind."

"..."

As Luo Xiu said this to Index, he turned around and took out the "Silver Sundial Compass" from his bracelet, and stared at the direction of the mercury needle on it.

The "mercury needle" did not move, which meant that the "fangs head" was still in its original position, not far from the dense forest.

After confirming these, Luo Xiu immediately put away the compass and looked towards the direction where the "fang head" was.

"Get ready, Intis."

Luo Xiu said in a low and calm voice:

"I will find that 'Fang Shou'. He can't escape..."

"This is the final battle of the night."
