Soul Trigger

Chapter 253 Multiple Dimensions
With Xiangjing's furious roar, the scarlet knife light tore the sparks apart suddenly.

The high-frequency knife in Ji Li's hand transformed and disintegrated. Amidst the sound of dense metal unit decomposition, it turned into a long clamp that clamped onto Xiangjing's arm blade and locked it with a click:
"I don't have time to mess around with you, kid."

With a sharp sound of metal clashing, violent sparks flew everywhere, and the long pliers instantly cut off Mukai's arm blade.

The next moment, the knife drew a chaotic trajectory above his arm, and the tip of the knife showed a powerful blood-colored energy, piercing straight into his face like a meteor.

Mukai suddenly raised his arm and spread out his five fingers.

Boom boom boom boom!!!

There were four consecutive sounds of the exoskeleton exploding, and the knife light that was as fast as a laser cannon was actually blocked by him.

And the arm that blocked Ji Li's attack had turned into five arms at some point.

The first few had been completely torn apart by the violent sword light, and even the last one was pierced through, with blackened cracks visible on the blood-red exoskeleton.

The tip of the knife went all the way through the back of his hand and was less than half a centimeter away from Mukai's head.

The next moment, the tip of the knife suddenly lengthened, and at the same time, Ji Li opened his mouth and spewed out a powerful black flame. The blade on his right arm grew wildly, and the black blade light swung towards the opponent.

Xiang Jing instantly tore his palm and disappeared on the spot, and then a flash of black and red launched an attack from the side and rear of Ji Li -

Poof! !

With a loud sound of metal clashing and the collision of scarlet blades, Xiangjing's arm blade shattered instantly, but two pairs of elytra suddenly grew out from behind him.

A dark red light flashed on the elytra, and his body suddenly disappeared from the spot.

Then, a dark red storm of blades erupted from Ji Li's body, sweeping towards him.

It was a dark red storm composed of Mukai's terrifying speed and extremely sharp blade.

Each blade was filled with a thick layer of dark red spiritual essence, stirring up all directions like dense dark clouds, flashing black and red:

"Can you keep up with my shadow?!"

Ji Li also clenched the high-frequency knife, and the red laser blade emitted light from the bottom to the tip.

The next moment, the mycelium on Ji Li's body rioted, and the dragon armor unfolded for a moment, revealing the mycelium muscles inside, and his wrists danced a scarlet whirlwind under his body -

Super-speed division-normal tense.

His body disappeared instantly:
"Be careful not to hurt your back, snail."

The dozens of meters long red blade light instantly stirred up a scarlet storm all around.

The black and red whirlwinds also collided with each other with clanging sounds, mixed with Mukai's wanton laughter.

The two were moving at a speed that was completely impossible for the naked eye to grasp, and loud clanging sounds erupted in all directions due to the high-speed collision.

At this extreme speed, all you could see was the huge scarlet blade and the slightly smaller black and red whirlwind flashing and colliding densely, getting faster and faster.

It was as if two terrible storms were fighting for the sovereignty of this land. Wherever they went, there were only shocking knife marks tearing the surroundings, and even the air was cut into terrifying cracks.

The sparks from the collision were like a volcanic eruption, pouring out in all directions along the violent trajectories of the blades. In just a short moment, there were thousands of violent collisions with flashing sword lights.

But gradually, Mukai's wild laughter turned into roars, and then into insane rage.

The calmness in his body quickly faded, because the speed of the black-red storm had been suppressed by the scarlet, becoming slower and slower, until it suddenly stopped for a moment with a muffled groan -

puff!
A long trail of blood splashed into the sky, and Xiangjing's body quickly retreated, with cuts of various sizes all over his body.

There was a huge bloody cut on his chest, and an arm was broken and fell to the ground, almost cutting his entire body!
At this moment, the body was trying its best to heal, but in the blink of an eye, it seemed as if some kind of chemical reaction occurred, and the cross-section exploded with dense blood foam again.

Seeing his own miserable state, Xiangjing's eyes turned red and a stream of blood suddenly spurted out from under his visor.

"Young people are too impetuous..."

And Ji Li's voice came slowly:

"Practice for another hundred years."

The next moment, a storm of blade light swept over, and Xiangjing gritted his teeth and disappeared on the spot:

“Don’t be complacent…”

His broken arm instantly grew into a new one, and with two loud "pops", another pair of bladed arms burst out from both sides of his body, and another pair of huge elytra opened from behind him, vibrating wildly.

His body instantly entered a high-speed rotation, like a drill at the speed of light, facing the knife light in the sky, clanging all the way as it fiercely rammed into Ji Li's body, leaving a dense mass of black and red knife marks on the ground:
"This is my nest!!!"

The two collided with a loud bang, and Ji Li retreated backwards like a reversing train, with the ravine under his feet spreading like a railway track.

But when he swung his sword back, a red blade that was more than ten meters long flashed past, and under the exploding sparks, an arm flew up into the sky covered with blood.

The drill was shattered in an instant, and then it was covered by a dense scarlet web of blades, with bloodstains popping all over the sky.

Xiang Jing retreated quickly amid a scream. Ji Li looked up and sprayed a beam of spiritual fire that had already been condensed towards the source of the sound.

With the help of the trajectory prediction system of the Ascension Protocol, his eyes followed the other party's blurry and flickering body, sweeping the dark spiritual fire that soared into the sky in all directions, and large pieces of black ice raging on this land -

"...A mere Type I Overlord... This is my nest! This is my nest!!!"

Violent black and red rose above Mukai's body, and high-temperature steam erupted harshly from his body.

With the spiritual essence that further increased its power, his body accelerated again, and he waved his four arms in an interlaced manner and attacked Ji Li wildly.

At the same time, densely packed black and red blades locked onto Ji Li's angle from all directions. An overwhelming black storm surged over, but Ji Li's body stopped standing still, and a warning sign suddenly rose in his heart:
What is he doing? !

Amid the whistling wind, the red laser blade was instantly sheathed, and sparks flew.

Ji Li raised his head as thousands of black and red blades approached, and time seemed to stand still:

"The knife is sharpened. Are you nervous?"

The trigger of the soul shook Xiangjing's mind like a magnitude 10 earthquake. He only felt that he was instantly locked by a terrible will. Before he could react the next moment, he saw the scabbard in Ji Li's hand exploded:
Steel blade grinding.

The humming sound of the machine running at its peak was like the power and energy being pushed to its limit and bursting out:
Buzz! ! ! !

The red light that tore through the sky and earth rose up like a tsunami, like a flood bursting through a dam, and instantly swept over Xiangjing's body!

At the moment of contact, Mukai didn't even have time to let out a scream before he instantly turned into bloody residue!
Under the blade that was emitting wisps of heat, the laser blade was humming and breathing light, and technological arcs were flickering on the blade that was made of high-specification materials. In front of it was already a deep red ravine like an abyss, extending all the way to the end of the world.

hum...

Amid the sound of the sword tearing through the air, Ji Li sheathed his sword. The progress bar that was originally shrinking had now risen to about 80%:
"What a waste of time..."

Just as he was about to gather the boiling spiritual essence, he heard a strange sound of flesh piercing and a fierce pain, and he lowered his head instantly.

Then I saw a bloody hole burst out on his wrist holding the knife, as if he was pierced by something out of thin air.

There was no tremor of soul trigger, no warning signs, and even no physiological reaction could be felt.

It's like some kind of rule.

Then, a sigh of joy from Mukai was heard in the air:

"finally……"

The burning blood swirled in the air like a strong wind. When Ji Li raised his hand, a series of dense blade light nets tore through the atmosphere.

But what responded to him was the sharp pain from a blunt force blow to his back and a large number of bruises that suddenly broke out on his sides.

The wound directly penetrated his evil spirit body, as if it had directly acted on his flesh, leaving no trace!

And Mukai's laughter echoed around, rising and falling:
"You are indeed strong, Black Goat... But this is a predator's lair... It is the lair of the 'animal stable'..."

"Are you confused? It's a pity that you are about to die..." The whistling black and red suddenly stopped:
"But come to think of it, you haven't seen me like this before, have you—"

Violent blood fell from the sky and transformed into a huge, rising shadow not far from Ji Li:

A steel claw shining with cold light met the knife light slashed by Ji Li. Even though it was cut off at the root on the spot, it grew back in an instant and slammed violently on the ground.

A monster covered in black and red walked out from the blood wave.

His entire body is covered in a mantis-like carapace, but he has the body of a wolf.

The spiritual fire in the Sword Master's eyes rose for a moment:
"You really are a mantis..."

Ji Li casually gave himself a Soul Mach shot, but the injuries on his body showed no signs of recovery.

Dense manes grew out from the cracks in the shells, and a pair of arm blades stood out from the sides of the claws, flashing a cold light:
"Tell as many jokes as you want. I won't just watch you die inexplicably when I have such a good opportunity..."

As the huge elytra behind him vibrated the air, terrifying sound waves spread in all directions as Mukai roared toward the sky:

"Because of a soul as powerful as yours, I will swallow you into my mouth, chew you bit by bit, and digest you thoroughly, taking with me Hongying and An Zhongxun's portion—"

A huge pit exploded, and Mukai's body instantly disappeared into thin air, and a giant claw dropped from the sky:

"The hunt has begun. Run, prey!!!"

A dark light flashed in Ji Li's eyes, and just as he was about to chop back with his knife, a puncture wound suddenly appeared on his arm. The knife deflected on the spot and grazed the opponent's skin.

He instantly turned his wrist to defend himself, tearing the air and dancing, and the blade just collided with the opponent's attacking steel claws -

Poof! ! ! !

A violent gust of air exploded between the two, and the ground behind Ji Li instantly cracked into dense knife marks, which spread out over a distance of dozens of meters and raised a cloud of dust!

Ji Li saw another bloodstain on his shoulder from the corner of his eye, and the spiritual fire under his mask rose up——

Although I have prepared myself for this situation, it will be disadvantageous for high-intensity combat if it continues like this...

He blew out a foul-smelling gust of wind:

"You look confused..."

Then he opened his strange mouth and roared:
"But I'll think about it slowly after it enters my stomach!!!"

Dark red spiritual essence rose up, and the sharp claws slammed down. The spiritual essence on Ji Li's body rose up, and he rushed forward under the blood hole that instantly exploded in his left arm.

……

In the bloody passage.

The red piece of flesh was wriggling on the wall. Che Canhao struggled to get up and looked with blurry vision at the girl with disheveled hair who seemed to have fainted not far away.

Mumblings came from behind him, Che Canhao's eyes flashed, he turned over suddenly and raised the blade in his hand, but the huge claws directly pressed down the nail clipper-level dagger and grabbed him from the ground.

The strange noise woke Che Liyou, who was sitting in the corner. When she opened her eyes, she saw a thin and bloody monster covered with black and white rags. It was grabbing Che Canhao's body and looking him up and down.

The memories before she fell into a coma suddenly flooded into her mind. Her pupils suddenly shrank. Just as she was about to speak, she bit her lower lip hard, resisting her instinct and covering her lips on the lower half of her face tightly.

Because Cha Chan-ho was shaking his head frantically at Cha Li:
"Sister, don't make any noise! ​​Run!!!"

The monster's intelligence is not high.

It didn't care who Che Canhao was talking to. It just held the little man in its hand that kept making various noises, looked him up and down for a while, and suddenly put him down.

Che Chanhao, who fell down, thought that the other party had discovered Che Li, so he slapped the ground and shouted wildly, trying to attract the monster's attention.

But the monster completely ignored him and walked firmly towards the shadow in the corner of the wall of flesh and blood, saliva constantly dripping from the corners of its bucktoothed mouth.

When she saw the figure that the other party grabbed from the corner, Che Li's eyes suddenly trembled:
Ji Li's unconscious body was caught by the monster.

He looked at the body and saw a bone spur piercing the wrist. He slowly pinched it with his sharp fingers and pulled it out with the blood squeezed out.

"Ji Li..."

She struggled to get up, but heard Che Canhao's roar in her ear:
"You bastard! Come at me if you dare! Hey! You bastard! You son of a bitch!"

It seemed that Che Canhao's voice was too noisy. The thin and bloody monster suddenly turned its head to look at him. In Che Li's trembling pupils, a bone spur suddenly erupted from its mouth, and blood spurted out -

The sharp bone spur pierced through Che Canhao's sternum on the spot, nailing him to the spot. Blood spurted out and the sound was like a broken bellows:

“Damn it, it can even shoot missiles… Sis, run—!”

But Che Li just stared at him blankly, and then her eyes slowly turned, watching the monster grab Ji Li's body and lift it in front of its head.

Mouth murmured:

"Powerful...soul..."

With a ripping sound, the big mouth full of buck teeth suddenly opened, and the arm pinched the flesh and pushed it towards the teeth.

Witnessing this scene, Che Li's eyes were instantly blank, and a dark shadow like the deep night pierced into her eyes:

"no, do not want……"

"Sister... run!!"

Che Li supported herself against the wall and stood up unsteadily. The deepness in her eyes was like ink bubbling into clear water.
"Stop it quickly..."

"Sister! Stop talking! Run! If this goes on, we'll all be..."

“Stop it!!!”

Amid the heart-wrenching screams, a violent chill rose up.

At the moment when the monster was whispering while eating, a huge silver ice cone burst out from the ground, piercing the monster's chest from below and sending it straight into the ceiling, making a loud bang!
Che Canhao was stunned for a moment:

“…Awakening the aura?!”

Che Li was already standing there, with her long black hair stained with blood flying up. As the illusory spirit in her eyes flickered, it quickly turned into silver-white, and a layer of extremely cold silver ice shavings floated around her body:

"Don't hurt him..."

"Sister, you..." Che Canhao's eyes widened.

His voice brought Che Li back to her senses suddenly. As the spiritual essence rising in her eyes loosened, the silver icicle not far away suddenly exploded, and Ji Li's body flipped over and fell from the monster's hand -

"Ji Li!"

She instantly burst out with extraordinary physical strength, rushed forward quickly and caught Ji Li's body in her arms.

And a bunch of dark green spiritual essence slowly retreated from the ring hanging on Ji Li's collar.

Che Canhao suddenly let out a breath filled with the smell of blood, grabbed the bone spur on his chest, and was about to pull it out while grimacing, but heard a loud bang -

The monster that had been pierced fell to the ground with a bang, letting out a fierce roar.

The blood hole created by the ice cone did not completely penetrate his chest, but only scraped out a large amount of flesh and blood, which was now oozing out.

Che Li arched her back, and looked at the monster with her eyes full of dancing spirit and silver-white light. She tightened her hands around Ji Li:
"This time, I also want to protect you..."

Amid the earth-shaking roar, frost suddenly appeared.

At this moment, Ji Li, who was lying in her arms, suddenly had a dark purple spiritual essence rising from his face.
