Chapter 223
The piece of flesh entangled by the sword glow suddenly exploded . Ai Hui’s sword was able to react instantly . The sword glow was like a wall, blocking the flying shrapnel from the exploded piece of flesh .
The ground within one meter of Ai Hui was sparkling clean . Outside this one meter range, there were fragmentary pieces of flesh and blood all over the ground .
If Ai Hui was lucid, he would have immediately sensed that there was a conspiracy . However, at this moment, Ai Hui’s mind was completely focused on his sword and he had lost the ability to think clearly .
In fact, he did not have the luxury of time to think .
The blood fiends suddenly became berserk, causing everyone’s facial expression to change drastically . Previously, the momentum of the blood fiends’ attacks were already terrifying . Now, the blood fiends had completely lost all their rationality and they looked as if they had been provoked to insanity by some intense stimulus .
The berserk blood fiends’ attacking power rose sharply, making them more terrifying than usual .
This unforeseen event happened too suddenly . The rest of the group were unable to react in time . They could only look on blankly at the berserk blood fiends surging toward Ai Hui . The blood fiends completely lost their sanity, trampling over each other as they surged forward . In the blink of an eye, nearly half of the blood fiends were injured . Even so, this did not stop them from rushing toward Ai Hui recklessly .
Ai Hui…
The previous joy of victory disappeared in an instant . Everyone’s face turned unsightly, filled with terror .
The hovering nine-traced blood falcons in the sky let out loud screeches . Spreading their wings, they streaked toward Ai Hui like a bunch of furious red arrows . Their terrifyingly fast speed made their screeches abnormally sharp .
Ai Hui’s surroundings were flooded with blood fiends .
Previously, as his elemental energy depleted by a huge amount, the number of blood fiends decreased as well . As such, the threat of the blood fiends was lowered, causing his sword embryo’s pulsation to decrease gradually . When these berserk blood fiends flooded toward him, however, there were a few blood fiends that came within one meter of Ai Hui’s body, causing the sword embryo to feel threatened and pulsate frantically .
As the sword embryo pulsated faster and faster, Ai Hui’s sword moved faster and faster as well .
Any blood fiend that traveled within one meter of him was met with a fatal streak of sword light . Like his sword, Ai Hui was emotionless and did not have the slightest bit of fear .
In the blink of an eye, the surrounding blood fiends became corpses that piled up like mountains .
Instead of decreasing, the number of blood fiends kept on increasing . The pulsating rate of the sword embryo continued to escalate, getting faster and faster .
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Ai Hui was like a machine . The speed at which he executed his sword moves was increasing rapidly . The sword beams he created were like streaks of lightning, zigzagging through the air . The speed at which the sword beams faded could not even keep up with the speed at which Ai Hui executed his sword moves . The sword beams streaking around Ai Hui were becoming concentrated and brighter, materializing into darting lights and shadows .
Nevertheless, the blood fiends were still able to close in on Ai Hui .
Within 10 seconds, the Dragonspine Inferno’s range of motion had been compressed to half a meter . Within these 10 seconds, countless blood fiends had fallen . Ai Hui was like a highly efficient harvester, wildly harvesting the lives of the blood fiends .
His range of motion, or rather the sword’s range of motion, or rather the sword embryo’s range of motion was being compressed bit by bit .
The surging ice-cold sword beams could not stop these berserk blood fiends . They had completely lost their fear of death .
The pulsating rate of the sword embryo continued to rise . Like a wild beast that had been pushed to the brink of death, it erupted with astonishing power . The sword beams produced by Ai Hui intensified abruptly, pushing his range of motion back to a meter .
Almost instantly, however, his range of motion was compressed inward again .
At a visible rate, his range of motion was compressed bit by bit . Half a meter, 40 centimeters, 30 centimeters . . .
When his range of motion was reduced to merely 30 centimeters, the rapidly beating sword embryo suddenly ruptured!
Boom!
When the sword embryo suddenly ruptured, an invisible storm gushed through every single part of Ai Hui’s body .
Ai Hui’s absolute focus on his sword had been withdrawn .
He felt as if he had woken up from a long and bizarre dream .
His face was blank…
The gaping bloody mouth of a blood fiend was merely inches away from his face . He could clearly see the bloodstains on those ghastly white teeth and the disgusting saliva that dripped down from the corner of its mouth . Ai Hui’s face was blasted by a whiff of the stench .
There was another unknown blood fiend behind him . Its heavy breaths puffed over his neck like mini tornadoes, causing his hair to stand on end .
The sharp screeches above Ai Hui’s head sent a shiver down his spine . Did someone up there throw a javelin at him?
Ai Hui quivered in fear as he cursed in his heart . How could a mere dream make things turn out like this?
However, he had no path of retreat at the moment . He did not even have the time to curse and hesitate . At this critical junction, Ai Hui was unusually calm .
His body had been emptied of elemental energy . The only thing that put him at ease was the indescribable confidence that he felt from the Dragonspine Inferno in his hand .
The only thing he could do now…
Before he could make any moves, an invisible energy wave suddenly flooded through every section of his body .
Boom!
Ai Hui’s eyes became abnormally bright all of a sudden . He did not know that his pupils had become the shape of a biting cold blade . The razor-sharp aura enhanced his vision, making it as keen as his sword . His scalp tingled, as if there was a pair of invisible hands that was forcefully pulling his hair . Traces of sword aura exuded from the pores on his skin .
Numerous pin-sized holes appeared on Ai Hui’s clothes in an instant .
What was going on?
An intense burst of aura blasted toward the sky . It looked as if a legendary sword had been unsheathed .
