Riding a vast, surging tide of crimson blood, Ye Chen came washing toward Jietisikoki high in the sky, fury uncontainable and momentum savage!
Jietisikoki's "Conduction Prism Eyes" narrowed slightly. As divine light flickered, a space rift as enormous as a towering building instantly emerged, barring the blood tide's path!
Yet, just as Ye Chen was about to plunge headfirst into the space rift under the inertia of his charge, the crimson tidal wave suddenly exploded!
Boom—!
However, the explosion brought no soaring flames, but a vast, violently churning crimson mist!
It spread forward at breakneck speed in a fan-shaped formation. A small portion rushed into the space rift, but the greater remainder curved around it and continued howling upward toward the Butcher Hunter across a span of hundreds of meters!
At the sight, Jietisikoki raised his brows.
"Heh. A blood-smoke bomb to block my vision? I loved playing that trick in my early years too."
As his words fell, another space rift the size of a doorway appeared beside him. He turned to step inside, clearly having no intention of waiting in place for Ye Chen's trap to come knocking.
Yet before this space rift could fully take shape, a blood-red spear abruptly shot out from the mist below, striking Jietisikoki squarely in the head with lightning speed before he could shift away.
Thud—!
The sound was like muffled thunder, ringing across the sky.
That sudden, ferocious spear strike instantly sent Jietisikoki flying ten meters away.
Yet although the attack had forced Jietisikoki away from his "portal," it failed to inflict any meaningful damage upon the helmet and faceguard fused seamlessly together over his head and face. It did not even leave the slightest mark on their surface.
This was precisely the formidable defensive effect of the "Blood Weak Armor"
