Qin Tiexin pupils shrink.
Ice Devil General lowered his head and glanced at the tip of the spear, then looked at Qin Tiexin. He threw the javelin to the ground casually, with a trace of killing intent flashing in his dark red eyes.
Then it stepped down, and a piece of ice exploded from the ground. Its huge body rushed towards Qin Tiexin at an incredible speed. Its right arm was covered with thick ice armor, and its five fingers came together to form a natural ice blade, which pierced Qin Tiexin's throat.
Qin Tiexin did not retreat. He faced Ice Devil General's sprint direction and took the same step forward. Edgeless lifted up from bottom to top - Mountain Shattering.
The blade collided head-on with the ice blade. A dull sound of gold and iron made the surrounding snow tremble slightly. Ice Devil General was forced back two steps by the impact of Edgeless. There were several cracks in the ice armor on his arms, but the dark red eyes lit up - it stared at Qin Tiexin's knife, as if it had found something worth being excited about.
It rushed up again. This time its attacks were more intensive. Both claws swung alternately, so fast that they left light blue afterimages in the air. Each blow carried Cold Qi that was enough to freeze spiritual power. Qin Tiexin danced Edgeless into a dark barrier, and every collision made his arms numb.
Ice Devil General's power is not much stronger than him, but the chill is transmitted through every collision, making his movements gradually become stiff. What's even more troublesome is that he needs to use part of his spiritual power to resist Cold Qi's intrusion. Invasion, the consumption of spiritual power is accelerating. Every time Edgeless hits Ice Devil General's armor, it can only leave cracks on the surface, unable to truly damage its body and unable to absorb its Sha Qi.
He tried to get close with a short knife - Inch Step cooperated with Blood Vortex Thrust, and cut into its close range between two swings of the knife. The short knife stabbed directly into its armpit. The ice armor was relatively weak and could be penetrated - but it was stuck less than half an inch into the flesh. There was also a layer of tough fascia under Ice Devil General's skin, and the short knife could not Penetration.
Qin Tiexin immediately retreated to avoid its sharp claws.
This can't go on like this.
He distanced himself, quickly checked the surrounding environment, and made a quick judgment in his mind: He could not use up a Ice Devil General that had almost endless power in the ice and snow environment, and there was no way to stop its recovery. He could only use stronger attacks to break open its armor, and kill it the moment it showed its flaw.
He thought of something. Wind-Rending Dagger.
He no longer held back, and pulled out the bone dagger from his waist with his left hand, holding it in the palm of his hand. Ice Devil General saw that he had changed to another weapon - a bone short blade that looked even more inconspicuous - and just glanced at it casually without paying attention. It pounced again, and its right claw went straight to Qin Tiexin's face.
Qin Tiexin faced Ice Devil General's sprint and took another step forward. Edgeless blocked from bottom to top, blocking the claw. The moment the empty door opened - he held Wind-Rending Dagger in his left hand, took a big step forward, cut into Ice Devil General's chest with the middle door wide open, and activated Wind-Rending Dagger. Wind-Rending, which had been accumulated for a long time, was suddenly released in front of the dagger.
The frantic airflow was compressed to the extreme, and then all bombarded Ice Devil General's breastplate within less than an arm's distance. The muffled sound was not loud, but the power was beyond imagination--Ice Devil General The thick layer of light blue armor on its chest shattered under the impact of Wind-Rending, and the cracks spread around, revealing the gray-white skin underneath. It let out a painful roar, and stumbled backwards uncontrollably.
Qin Tiexin didn't give it any chance to breathe. The moment Wind-Rending Dagger was released, he let go and threw away the bone dagger, holding Edgeless tightly in his right hand, and using the momentum of the forward thrust, he aimed the tip of the knife at the broken armor gap--
The knife pierced the tip of Edgeless Penetration into the shattered ice armor, tearing open the skin and muscles until the handle was gone.
Ice Devil General's roar came to an abrupt end. It lowered its head and glanced at the heavy, dark knife stuck in its chest, then raised its head to look at the wounded human monk in front of it. In its dark red eyes, the light was quickly dissipating. Its body swayed, and then it fell straight back, making a dull bang on the snow.
Qin Tiexin stood on the spot, gasping for air. The wound on his left arm that was opened by the sharp claws was burning. It was swept by Ice Devil General's right claw when he was in close range - extending from the outside of his left arm to his elbow. The wound was deep enough to see the bones. Blood dripped down his fingers on the snow, and dark red flowers bloomed in the snow.
He tore off a piece of clothing, bit one end with his teeth, and simply bandaged the wound a few times to temporarily stop the bleeding. Then he held the handle of Edgeless's knife and pulled the knife out of Ice Devil General's chest. There was light blue blood on the tip of the knife - Ice Devil General's core had been pierced. He brought the tip of the knife close to his wound. Edgeless trembled slightly and began to absorb the remaining trace of Sha Qi on the wound. Soon, the black aura around the wound disappeared.
Then he pressed the tip of the knife against Ice Devil General's corpse. Edgeless began to absorb it autonomously. Wisps of gray-black Sha Qi floated out from Ice Devil General's corpse and poured into the blade. This time, the absorption It took longer than before. When the Sha Qi was completely absorbed, a red-black Blood Bead slowly condensed at the tip of the knife. The Blood Bead was larger than any previous one, and its surface had a faint luster.
Qin Tiexin Without thinking much, he directly took out the Blood Bead and swallowed it. A warm current rose from the abdomen and spread to the limbs along the meridians, Repair covering the subtle damage in the body. Injury. The muscles around the deepest wound on his left arm began to squirm and heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. Although it had not fully recovered, the bleeding had stopped and the pain had been reduced by most. He took out a clean roll of cloth from the storage ring and carefully bandaged the wound again.
He stood up, glanced at the corpse of Ice Devil General on the ground, and then at the corpses of Devil Race all over the ground: Ice Devil, Horned Demon, scattered across the open space.
The strange fragrance is still going on, and he doesn't know when the next wave will come, nor does he know how long he can last in his current state.
He walked to the position he chose on the hillside and squatted down again. He checked the reserve of javelins. It was still enough, but there were only two Wind Blade left in the Wolf Fang Bracelet, and the Law Technique in Wind-Rending Dagger were also exhausted. He lined up several javelins in front of him one by one, checked the status of other reserves again, and then squatted there, looking into the dark depths of the forest.
The Cold Qi fluctuations in the cave became more and more violent, and a low roar came through the ice wall, as if something was collapsing or something was being reshaped.
Qin Tiexin did not look back, he knew that Li Yun was at a critical moment. All he could do was to guard this place.
