Divine Artifact: Slaughter Blood Sword! Yu Xiaogang Crippled! Flender Dead!

"Teacher! Watch out!!"

Tang San's heart-wrenching roar exploded like thunder.

Yu Xiaogang, who had been sitting cross-legged to recover, was jolted awake by that despairing howl and instinctively opened his eyes.

What he saw was a blood-colored demon god shrouded in boundless baleful aura!

The six blood wings behind Qian Sha Yu trembled wildly, while the massive blood sword in his hand descended with overwhelming force!

At that moment, all arrogance vanished from Yu Xiaogang's so-called "Master" corpse-like face, leaving only the utmost terror and despair from the depths of his soul!

"No... no!"

Yu Xiaogang was scared out of his wits and scrambled backward.

"Xiao Gang!!!"

Liu Erlong lunged toward Yu Xiaogang almost instinctively, intending to use her own body to block the sword.

But she was still one step too late!

A bloodthirsty, cruel curve formed on Qian Sha Yu's lips. "Trash like you dares call himself a Master?"

"Splurt!!!"

The scarlet sword light flashed like lightning!

Qian Sha Yu swept his blade through the air at an incredibly vicious angle, cutting right beside Yu Xiaogang's thigh root!

"Aaaahhh—!!!"

A shrill, miserable scream echoed through the heavens!

Yu Xiaogang's left leg was cleanly severed at the thigh root!

Scalding blood sprayed out like a high-pressure jet, drenching the stunned Flender beside him.

"Thud!"

Liu Erlong was struck head-on by the sword aura's aftershock.

She flew backward a hundred meters like a cannonball, smashing through the palace's white marble-carved wall before collapsing amid the rubble and vomiting blood wildly!

"Xiao Gang! Erlong!"

Flender wiped the warm blood from his face.

When he saw Yu Xiaogang clutching his thigh root and twitching in a pool of blood like a dead dog, screaming in agony,

and saw Liu Erlong, the love of his life, severely wounded and lying on the ground,

the headmaster of Shrek Academy completely lost his mind!

His eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and his black hair transformed into wildly flowing white hair.

"Qian Renxue! I'll fight you to the death! Cat-Eagle True Body!"

Flender roared toward the sky, transforming into a massive black cat-eagle.

His furious talons stabbed madly toward Qian Sha Yu's throat!

"A clown trying to shake a tree." Qian Sha Yu didn't even raise his eyelids.

Third soul skill, Blood Qi Barrier!

"Buzz!"

An incredibly dense, viscous blood-red barrier unfolded before Qian Sha Yu.

"Boom!!!"

Flender's all-out talons slammed fiercely into the Blood Qi Barrier.

Other than stirring up a faint ripple, they couldn't shake it in the slightest.

Baleful energy surged in Qian Sha Yu's eyes as he swung his massive sword sideways with a backhand slash.

"Splurt!"

Blood light swept past!

Flender's curses came to an abrupt halt.

The cat-eagle head, still bearing an expression of fury and unwillingness, soared high into the air as blood gushed several meters high from the neck stump!

Shrek Academy's headmaster, the level 78 Soul Sage Flender—beheaded on the spot!

[ Ding! The host has killed Flender. Flender's fate has changed. Reward issued: Divine Artifact · Slaughter Blood Sword! Full-State Recovery! ]

[ Ding! Divine weapon · Slaughter Blood Sword equipped. Soul skill effects doubled, Slaughter Domain effects doubled, Slaughter Power doubled, penetration effects doubled! ]

"Boom!!!"

Heaven and earth shook violently!

An unprecedented, world-destroying killing intent shot into the sky, even shredding the clouds above into fragments!

Qian Sha Yu's depleted energy was instantly restored, and his injuries healed completely once more!

Even more terrifyingly,

the ordinary blood qi longsword in his hand shattered,

replaced by a peerless demonic sword that was dark red throughout, its blade covered in countless patterns of wailing souls!

Divine Artifact: Slaughter Blood Sword!

The instant Qian Sha Yu gripped this divine artifact, his aura surged once more.

He seemed to truly transform into the supreme ruler commanding death and slaughter in the Nine Netherworlds!

"Awesome! This feels incredible!"

Qian Sha Yu threw back his head and laughed wildly, feeling the tremendous power coursing through him as his gaze swept arrogantly over the battlefield.

Within the ruins, Liu Erlong struggled to raise her head.

When she saw Flender's corpse separated from his head and Yu Xiaogang howling miserably with a severed leg, two streams of shocking bloody tears flowed from her eyes!

"Boss Flender! Xiao Gang!"

At that moment, thunderous battle cries suddenly came from the direction of Heaven Dou City's gates!

"Teacher! Third Brother! We've come to reinforce you!"

"Spirit Hall scum, die!!"

Rumble!

The remaining elites of the Four Single-Attribute Clans, along with Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others among the Shrek Seven Monsters, finally charged into the city with a massive force of reinforcements!

However,

when they eagerly arrived at the palace square,

the sight before them made every shout and killing intent abruptly stop!

"This... how could this be?" Dai Mubai froze in place, his pupils shrinking to pinpoints.

"Head... Headmaster!" The Evil Fire in Ma Hongjun's hand abruptly went out, and his entire body trembled violently.

"Teacher Zhao is dead!" Oscar collapsed onto the ground in terror, his face as pale as paper!

The entire city was filled with broken walls and ruins, with corpses strewn everywhere!

At the very center, Teacher Zhao Wuji had been split in two!

Headmaster Flender's head had fallen into a pool of blood, his eyes wide open!

Master Yu Xiaogang had lost a leg and was howling hopelessly in a pool of blood like a dead dog!

"Teacher Zhao?! Headmaster?! Master?!"

Ma Hongjun let out a heart-rending cry, and his mental state completely collapsed at that moment!

Everyone among the Shrek Seven Monsters felt their entire worldview crumbling!

Elsewhere.

Boom!

Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong forcibly shattered the ninth soul skill Qian Sha Yu had unleashed earlier and shielded Ning Fengzhi behind them.

Yet after blocking the attack, there wasn't the slightest trace of relief at having survived on Sword Douluo's and Bone Douluo's faces.

Instead, their expressions had become grave to the extreme!

They stared fixedly at Qian Sha Yu in the distance, who was once again radiating the vast pressure of being in peak condition and now held a blood sword emitting terrifying divine might!

"Uncle Sword, how did this happen?" Ning Fengzhi's voice trembled, his back already soaked in cold sweat.

"She clearly expended a great deal just now. Why has her aura become even stronger instead?"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin's face was solemn as he gritted his teeth and spoke a truth that made everyone's souls tremble.

"Fengzhi, I understand now! There's something deeply abnormal about this girl!"

"After she kills someone, her injuries instantly recover completely, and she even becomes stronger!"

"What?!"

Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo were struck as if by lightning, immense waves rising in their hearts.

She could instantly recover by killing people?

She could become stronger by killing people?

What kind of heaven-defying demonic technique was this?!

"We can't keep fighting! We absolutely can't keep fighting!"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin's face turned ashen as he shouted gravely, "Fengzhi! Rongrong is still here!"

"If this goes on and that female demon kills a few more people, even this old man and that old bastard won't be able to protect you!"

"We must retreat! Retreat immediately!"

He didn't care whether anyone else lived or died, but Ning Rongrong and Ning Fengzhi absolutely couldn't come to harm.

Ning Fengzhi also came to his senses, cold sweat pouring down his forehead as he hurriedly looked at Bone Douluo. "Uncle Bone! I'm counting on you!"

"Fine! Go!!!"

Bone Douluo Gu Rong didn't dare hesitate in the slightest.

"Buzz!"

A pitch-black spatial rift instantly tore open above the square!

Bone Douluo spread his hand, and vast spatial soul power swept across the battlefield like an invisible net.

"Go! Get in here!"

Whoosh!

The Shrek Seven Monsters, Liu Erlong with blood tears streaming down her face, Yu Xiaogang twitching with a severed leg, Tang San with a pale, despairing expression, and even the Heaven Dou prince Xue Beng were all forcibly seized by Bone Douluo and stuffed into the spatial rift!

Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo, who was still fighting Porcupinefish Douluo, saw this and widened his eyes, cursing inwardly, "Damn it! Those old foxes from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect run faster than rabbits!"

He realized that he needed to flee now.

Dugu Bo spewed out a large cloud of dense poisonous mist, forcibly driving back Porcupinefish Douluo.

Then he used his movement technique, transforming into a streak of green light and fleeing madly without looking back!

Rumble!

The spatial rift slammed shut.

In less than three breaths, the formerly imposing experts of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Shrek's main force, Dugu Bo, Tang San, and the others... had all fled without a trace!

The entire palace square was now empty.

Only the dumbfounded Prince Xue Xing remained,

along with tens of thousands of Heaven Dou Imperial Guards standing frozen in place,

and the remaining elites of the Four Single-Attribute Clans, who had been abandoned at the scene!

The clan members of the Four Single-Attribute Clans stared wide-eyed.

Looking at the empty sky, their minds went blank for a moment.

They... had been abandoned as expendable pawns by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?!
