Slaying the Cloaked Man, Successful Revenge!
The Blood Mist World is a completely unknown world. Players generally speculate that it is filled with destroyed civilizations, but no one knows the origin of the Blood Mist World.
Xu Lang used his Nightmare Eye to probe the Blood Mist, but only obtained this one line of information.
[Blood Mist: One of the "natural disasters" of the Blood Mist World, characterized by chaos and carnage, and only a very few top-tier powers can isolate it.]
"Chirp!"
Xu Lang strolled leisurely for a while when a humanoid monster with pointed ears spotted him and pounced on him with a scream.
Pfft~
The monster hovered in the air for a moment, then its body suddenly broke in two.
Xu Lang had already walked past him, seemingly making a slash, yet it also seemed as if he hadn't.
A wisp of soul light, invisible from a conventional perspective, followed and flew into the Purgatory March.
"Isn't one living being enough to give birth to a ghost?" Xu Lang glanced at Purgatory March and murmured.
[Effect 1 (Tomb of Souls): A portion of the souls of the slain beings will be absorbed into the sword, transforming into ghosts that will repair and temper the sword day and night, enhancing its attributes. Current number of ghosts: 0.1]
Purgatory March has quite an appetite.
But it's okay, the Blood Mist Creature can't be killed off completely.
A cadaver and Plaster Statue were moved out of the Art Building.
The Art Building is even harder to conquer than the Ginkgo Avenue Art Building many powerful Blood Mist Creature are hiding inside, and everyone gets stuck here.
Seemingly sensing something, all the monsters in the Art Building came to the corridor and looked at Xu Lang through the glass curtain wall.
"Wow, an all-star lineup." Xu Lang looked up and saw floating Ghost Painting... Unfinished Statue... Curator... Eye of Geometry and a host of other infamous and bizarre Blood Mist Creature.
These monsters are all on the leaderboards for players who are exploring new areas.
With a flash of light, the cadaver and the Plaster Statue instantly shattered.
The Plaster Statue shattered into pieces, the stones trying to come together, but they quickly burst into flames and died completely.
The Purgatory March can drain life force and burn the soul!
A target without sufficient resistance will essentially die after being stabbed once.
Xu Lang walked into the Art Building alone.
"Ang ang ang!"
The Soul Shepherd Wolf barked wildly at the Art Building. When it saw Xu Lang walk in, it glanced around with its thieving eyes, tucked its tail between its legs, and followed him.
Less than ten minutes later, Xu Lang came out of the Art Building, walked a little further in, and then began to push his way across the Ginkgo Avenue.
The monsters never stopped; Blood Mist Creature swarmed from all directions.
The Blood Mist Creature possess an innate malice towards living beings; players who enter them are essentially unleashing Blood Hatred.
Xu moved quickly, maintaining the basic running speed of an ordinary person, even with the monster being incredibly strong.
In just half an hour, a terrifying blood-red path unfolded behind Xu Lang!
Wherever he went, there was killing and death!
One man, one knife, one dog—a four-kilometer-long Jingguan Great Wall!
If there are Blood Mist Creature that can kill you instantly within the Blood Mist, then Xu Lang should be one of them!
And they're the kind who love killing the most, the most ruthless of all!
The Soul Shepherd Wolf wagged its tail and followed Xu Lang, head held high and chest puffed out, the human languages it had heard before floating in its mind.
The creatures that it feared were all killed by its master.
The owner is absolutely fantastic!
Excellent! Excellent! It's just like carrying Ghost Child on your head!
Half of its legs were soaked with blood, leaving plum blossom-shaped footprints when it landed.
And Xu Lang...
Surprisingly, there was very little blood on him, and he was generally clean.
This is thanks to a bright green pendant he wore around his neck. This piece of jewelry doesn't have any special properties, but it has an incredibly strong self-cleaning ability.
Cut horizontally!
The Seven Kill Blood Qi erupted from the Purgatory March, its blade energy clearing away all the surrounding monsters. Xu Lang stopped and looked up into the depths of the Blood Mist World.
Beyond the horizon, a church stands majestically.
The large snake coiled on top moved silently, like a terrifying creature lurking in the Blood Mist; its mere existence was a judgment upon the senses of terror.
The giant snake raised its head and stared at Xu Lang from an unknown distance.
This large snake is highly intelligent.
And they are definitely a worthy opponent to fight.
"There will be a place for you in the pastoral landscape."
Xu Lang had no intention of going.
This trip was very fruitful.
He didn't pick up any dropped items along the way.
Your deaths are my greatest spoils!
The Seven Kill Blood Qi needs to be purified through killing, the Blood Rakshasa Blood Pact needs to grow through slaughter, and even the knife in his hand craves the taste of souls.
Xu Lang was very fortunate that his power system revolved around killing.
Slaughter is the most legitimate force in the Blood Mist World, permeating everything it does.
He had previously considered creating some kind of guardian Sequence.
Now...
"The world's become this mess, and so am I. Savior Sequence, don't actually try to pull that savior act on me..."
Saving lives is nowhere near as satisfying or direct as killing.
Just as Xu Lang was about to turn and leave, a figure Soundless Silence blocked the road in front of him.
He's here! The Cloaked Man!
He wore a leather jacket and leather pants, and a pale chin was visible beneath his cloak, making him look like a ghost.
The last time Xu Lang encountered him, he immediately used a combined attack with the Soul Shepherd Wolf to escape.
[Nightmare Eye - Cloaked Man: The Fireseed No. 1 of the Dragonman Civilization, carrying the hopes of an entire civilization, now completely mutated, reduced to a rather abnormal Blood Mist Creature... Your existence has aroused his bloodlust; combat strength is assessed as "dangerous."]
For Xu Lang, danger means something that can harm him; he must be treated with utmost seriousness!
So, amidst the grand spectacle of the Cloaked Man's rapid approach, leaving a trail of air behind him and scattering the Blood Mist, Xu Lang delivered his earnest strike!
Seven Kill Blood Qi - Ghost Slash!
A crimson blade aura, even more dazzling than Blood Mist, suddenly appeared!
The Cloaked Man unleashed his blade aura when he was less than two meters away from Xu Lang, seizing the perfect moment.
Xu Lang had no intention of giving the Cloaked Man any chance of survival!
I've wanted to kill you for a long time!
Previously, even though Xu Lang was Martial God, he couldn't deliver such a flawless slash with zero error. The appearance of Purgatory March has increased his attack speed!
Clang!
The Cloaked Man raised his arm to block, triggering the limb-severing effect, and both of his arms flew into the air!
The two arms landed on the ground, covered with ugly green scales!
The Cloaked Man's cloak was blown open by a strong wind, revealing his true appearance.
The upper half of its face was covered in ugly scales, just like its arms, while the lower half was as white as jade.
"Ughhh!" The Cloaked Man and Xu Lang looked at each other, realized something, and screamed like madmen.
He tried to raise his hand to cover his face, but found that his arm was also broken.
Blood from the severed arm mingled with tears, and surprisingly, the tears flowed more turbulently than the blood, falling to the ground first.
He seemed more concerned about having his true face seen than about losing an arm.
"Prepare to die. You're Fortune. I'm not that strong yet, and you still have a place in Muyuan." Xu Lang swung his sword again, and a fine head flew high into the air.
Pfft~
The blood from the severed neck gushed out like a fountain. The Cloaked Man collapsed to the ground, completely lifeless. His soul, on its way into the Purgatory March, was intercepted by the Scarlet Shepherd Sequence and entered the Grave Pasture.
Although these soul points do not affect the birth of the Shepherded Soul, they will damage the overall integrity, and the Scarlet Shepherd Sequence will not ignore them.
In terms of rank and priority, Scarlet Shepherd is far superior to Purgatory March.
"Hey, they've already started fighting over food. If this were Safe Zone, there wouldn't be enough lives for you to share. It would have to be the Blood Mist World."
