Chapter 1367

The Emperor Slime's second split was interrupted.

He was clearly even more enraged.

But now there was nothing to be done, only to keep ramming the female soldiers madly.

Gu Qing felt dizzy.

Her spiritual power was also completely drained, and now even her blood was severely depleted—she was in an anemic state.

But this was the critical moment.

She had to hold on.

Bang bang bang bang bang!

The female soldiers' shields shattered again and again, and the durability of the Mystic Maiden Battle Armor on their bodies had long since passed the halfway mark.

They felt their steps grow heavy and their arms go limp.

At this rate, there would be casualties.

Casualties didn't matter—after all, they could all resurrect, so that wasn't the most critical issue.

The most critical thing was that after casualties, their strength would be even weaker.

By then, if too many were lost, they really wouldn't be able to deal with this Emperor Slime.

Once it split, this Taoyuan Village would probably have to be abandoned.

After all, even if Zhao Chi fled to another territory, once this territory suffered damage, it would be deemed that Zhao Chi had abandoned this land.

Zhao Chi was also hesitating.

Should he go all-out to kill it now?

He really hadn't expected…

That the Emperor Slime, weakened by more than half, could still be this strong with just a single ram.

The original nest difficulty was truly harder than imagined.

Just as he was thinking, Tang Ruan flew out again.

This time she vomited blood.

Tang Ruan excitedly swallowed the blood, stood up, and charged out.

Another few minutes of holding on.

The Emperor Slime's entire body trembled once more.

Zhao Chi's pupils contracted.

He saw it!

He saw the racial bloodline!

"Qiyue, help me slash open a big gap!"

Zhao Chi threw off all the shields and weapons on his body and rushed forward.

Qiyue's blade fell, the slime's outer skin split apart, and a large wound appeared.

"Gu Qing, the outside is in your hands—kill it the instant I get the bloodline!"

"Understood." Gu Qing felt her vision go black.

Zhao Chi controlled Tang Ruan and, without hesitation, plunged headfirst into the slime's body.

Zhuang Ya, behind her, gave Tang Ruan's butt a vicious kick.

Boom!

It hurt a lot.

This Zhuang Ya really hadn't held back any strength at all.

Under that vicious kick, Tang Ruan's body burrowed even deeper.

Gelatinous matter surrounded her on all sides.

Breathing was completely impossible.

Inside here, everything was sticky.

Every movement was extremely strenuous, requiring massive physical exertion.

Zhao Chi kept using the dagger to dig through the gelatinous matter, steadily approaching the racial bloodline.

He was now severely oxygen-deprived.

Zhao Chi felt Tang Ruan's lungs were about to explode.

But there was still half a meter left.

Half a meter right above her head.

Qiyue, outside, could barely restrain herself from wanting to charge in and help Zhao Chi.

But she couldn't do that.

Rash action might cause the racial bloodline to hide again.

She watched Tang Ruan inside anxiously, praying fervently in her heart.

Suddenly.

Zhao Chi felt the slime around his body suddenly pull away.

That muddy, viscous sense of resistance vanished instantly.

It seemed a gust of wind had blown in, instantly inflating the slime's body.

That wind carried Gu Qing's distinctive body fragrance.

This was Gu Qing squeezing out her last dregs of spiritual power to cast the Wind-Riding Art.

Enough!

That's enough!

Zhao Chi used the last of his strength to leap up fiercely.

His arm plunged into the thick, gelatinous mass; the resistance was painfully obvious.

Just a little more, just a little more!

Got it!

He spread Tang Ruan's palm and gripped that racial bloodline tight.

In hand!!

"Kill!!"

Gu Qing crouched on the ground and gave one final order.

All the female soldiers charged in.

This time they didn't even bother with shields.

Every one of them drew their backup weapons, one in each hand.

Phoenix Cry Sabers, Moon-Chasing Spears—whatever they had, they used, attacking with everything they had.

Qi Yue also condensed a Half-Moon Slash.

Slashing like this would hurt their own people, but there was no choice now—hurt them if they must.

As long as they didn't die.

The main thing was to deal massive damage to that Emperor Shi Laimu.

Zhuang Ya couldn't keep spewing fire either; she, too, hefted a greatsword and charged in, hacking away without pause.

Su Qin tried to use a Gathering Energy Arrow, but failed.

She forced the bow open and fired two Scatter Volleys into the top of the Shi Laimu's head.

The Emperor Shi Laimu surged wildly, slamming about in a frenzy.

The female soldiers were knocked away one by one, then ran back one by one.

Zhao Chi wanted to run outward, but Tang Ruan had already reached her limit—she couldn't get out.

Then leave it to the comrades outside…

Still, Zhao Chi could offer some last bit of help.

He opened the Blissful Berserker interface.

He frantically clicked the energy points.

Besides Qi Yue and the others', Zhao Chi activated all 100 of those Neutral Energy points as well.

They randomly landed on those giant female soldiers.

Over a hundred strange beams of light blazed out from within the Emperor Shi Laimu's body.
