Xu Taiping, who had little blood qi left to begin with, was drained completely dry in an instant and nearly passed out on the spot.
He immediately gulped down a mouthful of Dragon Gall Wine, then stuffed a packet of Eight-Treasure Powder and a Qi-Guarding Pill into his mouth.
Even so, he still could not supply the qi and blood the Ghost-Sealing Talisman needed to seal this demon cultivator.
The Blond Demon Cultivator seemed to have noticed this too. Ignoring the Self-Binding Curse, he kept drawing on the demonic qi within him, trying to break free of Xu Taiping's Ghost-Sealing Talisman.
Clang!
Just as Xu Taiping felt that all his efforts were about to fail at the final hurdle, the Water-Cutting Blade at his waist suddenly flew from its scabbard on its own and hovered before him, humming and trembling incessantly.
Xu Taiping froze for a moment, then tentatively grasped it.
The instant he took hold of Water-Cutting, a vast and pure power spread throughout his entire body.
At the same time, Duan Tianya's figure inexplicably appeared in his mind.
Duan Tianya held the Water-Cutting Blade in both hands and, with a movement that looked profoundly mysterious, slashed at a demonic beast.
Having already read the Demon-Slaying Blade Manual, Xu Taiping remembered clearly that this was one of its blade techniques.
Water-Cutting Blade, are you telling me to... slay the demon?
A thought suddenly surfaced in Xu Taiping's mind.
As though answering that thought, the Water-Cutting Blade hummed again.
Though he still had doubts, Xu Taiping had witnessed the Water-Cutting Blade's power and ultimately decided to take the risk.
After all, if he relied on the Ghost-Sealing Talisman alone, there was no telling how much more blood qi he would have to expend to seal this demonic beast.
