Sikong Jing had devoured its essence blood before. He had even devoured Void Energy Crystals infused with the essence blood of the Nine Skies Blood Devour Magic Beast.
Who knew how many ages had passed, yet this claw mark still carried an incomparably dense Nine Heavens magic beast aura.
Suddenly, the Shadow Moon Demon Rat shuddered all over and said again, "Zhe Ying is about to catch up. I can use the aura of the Nine Heavens Blood Devour Magic Beast to conceal my own and shake him off."
With that thought, Sikong Jing had no time to think further. He controlled the Shadow Moon Demon Rat and darted into the enormous claw mark.
The claw mark was enormous—truly enormous!
In comparison, the Shadow Moon Demon Rat was so tiny it was nearly imperceptible. The instant it hid within, it seemed to vanish entirely.
At the same time, Sikong Jing immediately circulated the Demon Vein belonging to the Nine Heavens magic beast, merging with the residual magic beast aura inside the claw mark.
In an instant, he completely shook off Zhe Ying's lock-on...
The Shadow Moon Demon Rat landed in a small crevice within the claw mark.
Sikong Jing silently thought, "By fully merging into the claw mark's aura, if Zhe Ying comes down to search, I can even borrow the power of becoming one with the claw mark to assassinate him without a sound."
At that thought, Sikong Jing's gaze suddenly froze.
From within the claw mark, he abruptly spotted, diagonally below in the abyss ahead—on the opposite cliff face—line after line of sword marks. The densely packed sword marks extended endlessly downward, continuing until they disappeared from sight.
The sight of those sword marks shocked Sikong Jing once more. "They emanate Nine Heavens Sword Intent."
