Blood Blade was nothing but a killing machine. Whatever anyone said, whether threats or pleas for mercy, was utterly useless. His fearsome name had long since spread throughout the Heavenly Soul Domain; there was hardly a soul who did not know it.
And so, faced with Blood Blade's pursuit, not a single person here thought of begging for mercy. Even the sole Spirit Emperor Realm expert knew only to flee. The blood-red saber in Blood Blade's hand, along with the terrifying, chaotic killing aura and blood qi enveloping him, were his hallmarks. Even members of the Blood God Sect could not imitate them.
Had everyone not known that Blood Blade was originally a traitor to the Blazing Sun Sect, they might well have mistaken him for a traitor to the Blood God Sect instead.
"Aah..." A scream rang out amid a flash of bloody light. In the end, the sole Spirit Emperor expert failed to withstand a streak of blade qi Blood Blade launched from afar. His body split in two down the middle, and his corpse instantly shriveled dry.
Vast amounts of blood qi and killing aura rose into the air and were devoured by the blood-red saber, then fed back into both the weapon and Blood Blade himself. Blood Blade's aura strengthened once again. By now, he was almost restored to a level approaching a peak Spirit Emperor.
Having devoured so much blood qi and killing aura, the blood-red saber in his hand was already showing signs of surpassing ordinary Emperor Grade weapons. Had its materials not been so poor, such an enormous accumulation would have long since raised it to Venerable Grade. It was just like Huo Hai's Bloodflame Flood Dragon: without the necessary intrinsic quality, no breakthrough was possible, no matter what.
