Chapter 71 Solidifying the Bloodline Segment (First Update!)

"Buzz!"

An unidentified buzzing sound suddenly filled the air!

The next moment, Yi Qingfeng, sitting on Steelmane, could feel the other party's violent tremors:

An unseen force attacked Steelmane from a realm he could not see.

Spellcaster?
Faced with this seemingly frail leader, Yi Qingfeng's expression immediately turned solemn.

Compared to natural forces like fireballs and lightning.

This invisible impact brings a completely different sense of oppression.

But it ultimately failed to stop the steel bristles.

Once such a wild creation launches its charge, ordinary means are simply ineffective in stopping it.

In the blink of an eye, the other side didn't have time to make any more attempts!

The storm tore at Yi Qingfeng's helmet.

Amidst the raging wind, Yi Qingfeng could see the distinctly different faces of his enemies:

The humanoid body was covered with what looked like a lump of purple mud.

Upon closer inspection, the mud appears to be constantly being stirred and twisted...

Additional Boss: Ritual Hunter - Nicklaut...

I hope you have a healthy skull...

Yi Qingfeng thought to himself.

In the blink of an eye in the material dimension, he swung his warhammer without hesitation!
The Holy Slash!
A crimson glow, accompanied by a destructive roar, crashed down upon the leader with the lengthy name!
The next moment:

A magical aura appeared on Nicklaut's body!
Its shape began to flicker.

The crimson light of the Holy Slash passed directly through its body!

The ethereal sensation made Yi Qingfeng's gaze sharpen.

Averted?
But the next moment:
Nicklaut's figure then detached from the seemingly ethereal state.

Large, radiating, jagged cracks appeared on its body!
The steel bristles, having missed their target once again, abruptly canceled the supernatural power they had bestowed upon its body.

This caused it to suddenly plunge into the swamp.

After carving a huge trench in the earth, the steel bristles completed this sudden stop.

In contrast, it seems unwilling to turn its back on a spellcaster...

I never expected Steelmane to have this trick up its sleeve.

But the reminder from the consciousness link made Yi Qingfeng jump off the steel mane without hesitation!
With a lightness as if walking on air, Yi Qingfeng's figure suddenly exploded into a cloud of blood mist!
Combat mounts can also stack the movement speed bonus from Blood Oath Pursuit.

Of course, this movement speed bonus does not directly apply to war mounts.

Blood oath, charge!
A straight line instantly stretched out from the muddy ground!

For longer distances, it's difficult to say which is better between Bloodsworn Charge and Steelmane Charge.

But if it's a short distance...

Blood Oath Charge's performance, which resembles a spatial teleportation, is something even Steelmane's Charge cannot match.

Yi Qingfeng has gradually gotten used to this rapid shift in perspective.

The silent judgment, tinged with the crimson hue of destruction, fell mercilessly!

The cracking of bones, accompanied by the endless wailing of flesh and blood!
Yi Qingfeng stepped forward and picked up the remains, which were now less than half the size of the body.

Under the power of the battle god, flesh and blood shattered instantly.

Another fresh skull...

Then, Yi Qingfeng looked at the treasure chest that had rolled to the side.

Yi Qingfeng smashed it open with a hammer.

Inside was a mass of flesh and blood that looked like a living thing, along with some coins that were almost brown...

Is there really a treasure?
Having already acquired a sack of coins, Yi Qingfeng naturally had little interest in these dirty coins.

In contrast, Yi Qingfeng was more interested in the life structure of this treasure chest monster.

Is this thing really a creation of nature?

Yi Qingfeng had strong doubts about this.

Before he could investigate further, Yi Qingfeng suddenly caught a glimpse of a furtive figure fleeing at high speed out of the corner of his eye…

Damn it, my gray!

…………

…………

Yi Qingfeng had some doubts: the number of corrupted ash would increase the movement speed of the ash thief.

Just like how the amount of gold can influence a robber's desire to go all in.

But once Steelmane started moving at full speed, nothing unexpected happened.

On the ground, it can run in a straight line past the charging Steelmane.

At least Yi Qingfeng hasn't encountered one yet...

A supreme slash imbued with intense emotion.

Accompanied by the crisp sound of skull shattering:

The demonic ashes exploded all over the ground like a shower of flower petals...

"Crack..."

After the bloody battle, Steelmane began to enjoy a feast.

It doesn't care about the whole pieces of flesh mixed with mud and water.

Having witnessed Steelfur feeding, Yi Qingfeng did not summon it back after the battle.

Fortunately, he couldn't handle so many crocodiles.

So let Steelman eat as he pleases.

On the other side, he was chopping chunks of flesh from the swamp king's massive body.

Completely removing the flesh is impractical.

On the one hand, he didn't have a pot big enough for blanching and cooking.

On the other hand, the Swamp King's dense skeleton also greatly hindered Yi Qingfeng's handling of it.

It is said that crocodile meat has a delicate texture and tastes like chicken.

I wonder what this exotic crocodile tastes like...

As before, Yi Qingfeng only cut off the relatively dense, clean flesh of the Swamp King.

His backpack is getting fuller and fuller of meat...

After all, his size is what it is.

The significant increase in their food intake hasn't yet reached the point where they eat a whole pig a day.

And the amount of meat he obtained each time wasn't just from one pig...

Therefore, they did not linger in this instance any longer.

Yi Qingfeng chose to leave directly...

Back on Earth, Yi Qingfeng paused slightly as he looked at the notification message and the confirmation option that popped up on his retina.

Bloodline plate?
What is this again?
After a moment's thought, Yi Qingfeng tentatively chose to activate...
