Yavi's cat eyes swept through the air filled with blood and burnt smell, and the flow of magic power was like a dim stream - although it was not abundant, it was enough for him!

The air in the center of the battlefield seemed to have solidified. Yavi bent his knees slightly, his center of gravity sank, and the finger joints holding the silver sword turned white from exertion. The leader Giant Ghoul opposite, under the dark purple carapace, his knotted muscles were tensed like a hydraulic machine. His huge body was pressed even lower, and sticky saliva dripped from the gaps between his fangs, corroding white smoke on the blood-stained ground.

On the verge of breaking out!

Boom!

The next moment, the two figures exploded at the same time like detonated gunpowder!

Giant Ghoul leader showed a terrifying explosive power that was inconsistent with its huge body! Its thick hind limbs violently smashed the ground, and its huge body was like a boulder thrown by a trebuchet, leaping high with a roar that ripped through the air! The giant body was like a boulder thrown by a trebuchet. The big right arm covered with horny claws was swung in the air, carrying a huge force like a battering ram, and slammed down the tiny Yavi below! The shadow instantly enveloped Yavi!

However, at the moment when the destructive giant claw was about to touch Yavi's head--

Phew!

Yavi's figure suddenly blurred on the spot! It was not a simple movement, it was more like a silver lightning tearing apart the space! He did not retreat in a straight line, but at an incredible angle and speed, almost sticking to the inside of the trajectory of the giant claw, wiping the fatal edge upstream!

Time seems to be stretched out at this moment!

Giant Ghoul The leader's turbid yellow vertical pupils reflected the small figure below but faster than its reaction! It could even see clearly the silver sword in the opponent's hand, drawing a cold, extremely precise cold light under the moonlight and firelight - the target was directed at the relatively soft belly exposed when it jumped up!

Pfft--!

The dull sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh was accompanied by the sound of blood splattering! A huge wound that was deep enough to the bone and almost ran across the entire abdomen suddenly opened up in the abdomen of leader Giant Ghoul! Filthy internal organ fragments mixed with thick black blood poured down like a waterfall!

"Ouch--!!!" The severe pain caused the leader to let out a deafening howl! The momentum of the jump stopped suddenly, and the huge body was like a kite with broken strings. It lost its balance in the air, and with a gushing rain of blood, it crashed to the ground! The earth trembled!

Yavi's figure solidified like a ghost a few feet away, and the high-speed emergency stop brought up a circle of dust under his feet. He didn't pause at all, and didn't even look back to confirm the victory! At the moment when the smoke and dust of the opponent's landing had not yet risen, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his body once again turned into a silver stream of light running close to the ground, and rushed back at a faster speed! The target - to kill you while you are sick!

Bang! Bang!

Giant Ghoul The leader's huge body smashed a shallow pit into the ground, causing gravel and soil to fly. The severe pain in his abdomen almost caused him to faint, but the ferocity and fear of death engraved in his bones made him burst out with an astonishing desire to survive! Regardless of the horrific wound that almost disembowelled it, it struggled to prop up its upper body with its forelimbs and tried to stand up!

The moment it raised its head, that fatal silver light had already struck!

A flash of crazy violence flashed in the leader's cloudy eyes! It had no time to stand up completely, so it could only rely on its fighting instinct to swing out its uninjured left forelimb covered with ferocious bone spurs! Five sharp claws like daggers tore the air, and with the momentum of mutual destruction, they swept towards Yavi's waist and abdomen!

Dang--!!!

The deafening sound of clashing gold and iron resounded through the night sky! Sparks violently splashed like a red rainstorm where the claws and swords met!

The expected scene of human beings being torn apart by sharp claws did not appear!

Yavi Holding the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands, the silver sword lay in front of him, forcibly resisting the terrifying claw attack that could tear the steel! Huge power came from the sword body, as if it was hit head-on by a running rhinoceros! Yavi The ground under instantly cracked and sank, and his feet plowed two deep ravines. The whole person was pushed back a full three or four meters by this powerful force! The arms holding the sword felt sore and numb, and the tiger's mouth almost burst!

The Giant Ghoul leader was also feeling uncomfortable! It blocked hastily and was dragged down by the serious injury to its abdomen. Its huge body was shaken back by the reaction force, and the balance it barely maintained was broken again. It staggered back a step, and the wound on its abdomen was torn even more, and blood flowed like a profuse stream!

It stabilized its body, looked down at its slightly trembling claws, which even had a small gap opened by the damn silver sword, then raised its head sharply, staring at the human in front of him who slowly stood upright in the smoke and dust. Although he looked slightly embarrassed, his eyes were still as cold as before. For the first time, shock and disbelief were clearly revealed in those turbid yellow vertical pupils!

How is it possible?! How can this tiny body contain enough power to confront it, this jungle overlord?! This is completely contrary to its knowledge! What kind of monster is that sword... and this person...?!

The shock in the eyes of the Giant Ghoul leader was like a stone thrown into a stagnant pool, and he was instantly swallowed up by more turbulent rage and bloodthirsty! The severe pain and humiliation made it completely crazy! Regardless of the almost fatal wound in its abdomen, black blood and broken internal organs were gurgling out, and its hind limbs once again burst out with terrifying power. Its huge body turned into a dark purple hurricane of destruction, and with the momentum of mutual destruction, it rushed towards Yavi crazily!

However, at this moment, Yavi, in the depths of those pure black cat eyes, burned a flame colder than ice. The leader's rage played into his hands! A beast that has lost its mind is far more predictable than a calm hunter!

Aard!

The moment Giant Ghoul jumped in front of him, Yavi pushed forward with his left hand like lightning! It was not a powerful impact, but a precise and condensed directional air wave! The target was not the monster itself, but the ground under its feet that was soaked in blood and made muddy and slippery by repeated trampling by the leader's huge weight!

Tsk--!

As if being pushed hard by an invisible giant hand, the charging leader Giant Ghoul's huge body staggered suddenly! It was already unstable due to serious injuries, and the slippery blood and mud under its feet made it even worse! Its huge front paws scratched in vain on the slippery ground, splashing large amounts of blood and mud, but it was unable to stop the tendency of sliding forward!

Opportunity!

The figure of Yavi moved sideways like a ghost the moment Aard Sign took action! He did not retreat, but accurately cut into the unprotected left side of the leader's ribs that was exposed due to slipping! There, the dark carapace had several cracks broken open by the silver sword in the previous battle!

"Drink!" Yavi exhaled, and the power of his whole body exploded instantly like a tightened steel wire, pouring into his arms! The silver sword turned into a silver Thunderbolt that tore through the darkness, with an ear-piercing scream, and penetrated into the cracks in the carapace with incomparable precision!

Poof--choo!

The sound of the sharp blade penetrating the tough carapace, tearing muscles, and severing bones is heart-breaking! For this sword, Yavi used 100% of his strength and the inertia of his whole body sprint! The entire silver sword blade, together with the hilt, was almost completely submerged into the ribs of leader Giant Ghoul!

"Ouch-ouch--!!!!"

A howl that was ten times more horrifying than before tore through the night sky! Giant Ghoul Leader's huge body seemed to have had its backbone ripped out, and fell to the ground with a crash! Blood gushed out from the huge wounds in its mouth, nose and ribs like a fountain., instantly formed a thick pool of blood under the body! Its strong limbs twitched and kicked crazily, trying to stand up again, but every struggle only made the wound under the ribs tear wider, spewing out more blood and broken internal organs!

Yavi The moment the long sword penetrated, he jumped back with the force of the recoil and landed lightly several meters away, avoiding the fatal struggle range. He panted violently, sweat mixed with blood sliding down from his forehead. The jaws of the hands holding the silver sword had cracked, and blood dripped down the hilt. But those pure black cat eyes were firmly locked on the dying beast on the ground, and they remained cold and unrelenting.

The advantage has irrevocably fallen to the demon hunter!

The leader's life force was passing away at a speed visible to the naked eye. In its turbid yellow vertical pupils, the crazy rage was finally replaced by a deeper and more primitive fear. It struggled, trying in vain to cover the fatal penetrating wound under its ribs with its claws, but the blood and internal organs gushing out could not be blocked. Every futile breath was accompanied by a grunt of blood foam, and the huge body quickly shriveled up like a punctured air bag.

The strong smell of blood in the air was almost suffocating. Over at the camp, the warlocks held their breath and concentrated. Even Giant Ghoul struggling in the ice coffin and the roars bound by the vines seemed to be shocked by this cruel end and became weaker. Everyone's eyes were focused on Focused on the center of the battlefield - the once arrogant jungle overlord is heading towards an irreversible end in a pool of its own blood. And the figure standing with a sword and covered in blood is like a judge returning from hell, announcing the final outcome of this bloody night.

Yavi adjusted his breathing slowly, feeling the efficacy of the potion in his body that was about to dissipate and the magic power that was slowly recovering. He slightly raised the blood-stained silver sword, pointing the tip of the sword at the dying giant beast leader on the ground. The final touch-up required absolute caution. Giant Ghoul, who was trapped and dying, was the most dangerous.
