Chapter 941: Grudge Blood Spike! Su Qingli Severely Wounded!

Getting distracted in battle is a very dangerous thing, especially for high-level ability users.

But even so, Kent and Nira still split off some spiritual power to observe the battle situation on Xu Jingming's side.

When Nawa was blasted to death by Xu Jingming, both of their expressions changed drastically, and they unexpectedly fled in two opposite directions at the same time!

"Little Lotus, entangle that person!"

Letting Clematis entangle that ninth-step Wu Sheng, Xu Jingming himself transformed into a black stream of light and charged toward that ninth-step Spell Saint.

"Jingming, be careful."

Su Qingli hurriedly reminded from behind, "He probably still has a trump card he hasn't—"

Before her words could finish, Xu Jingming, who had deployed Thunder Dragon Wings and whose flying speed exceeded three times the speed of sound, had already caught up with Kent.

Black thunder spread out, and the spear, carrying immense power, thrust out like an enraged dragon!

Crackle-crackle—

Thunder splashed, as the SSS-grade Chaos Divine Thunder collided with Kent, who had transformed into elemental form.

In just an instant, the Chaos Divine Thunder devoured all the flames in the sky completely.

'Ding, killed one ninth-step mid-tier Divine Blood Emissary, ability points +400,000.'

"Hmm?"

Su Qingli behind was stunned for a moment; she hadn't expected Xu Jingming to kill so easily.

Xu Jingming also hadn't expected it; he had originally thought Kent in elemental form would be harder to deal with.

But the notification sound from the system proved that the opponent had indeed been killed.

"Chaos Divine Thunder is an SSS-grade ability, while this black man only has an A-grade elemental fire-type ability.

On the elemental level, your S-grade Chaos Divine Thunder is far higher than his.

Once the two sides' elemental energy come into contact, your lightning is a devastating blow to his flame element.

If this black man doesn't elementalize, it's fine, but once he elementalizes, he has no power to resist at all."

At this moment, Eva spoke up to explain.

"So that's how it is."

Xu Jingming nodded. "It seems Spell Saints are even easier to kill than Martial Saints."

Of course, that white man just now had a strengthening-type S-grade ability; if it had only been an A-grade ability, he would have been instantly killed as well.

"This way, only the last person is left."

Xu Jingming turned and flew toward the last remaining ninth-step mid-tier Wu Sheng with an A-grade ability.

Under the entanglement of Clematis's vines, she hadn't escaped far at all.

"Want me dead? You won't get off easy either!"

Nira seemed to have anticipated her own ending; her face, already disfigured by the Divine Blood secret art, became even more hideous.

The crimson qi and blood swirling around her body suddenly condensed, transforming into a spike that stabbed toward Su Qingli, who was closest to her, at ten times the speed of sound!

Boom!!

Although Su Qingli reacted quickly, immediately entering elementalization and releasing a lightning barrier,

the crimson spike seemed to completely ignore that thunder barrier, piercing straight through it and stabbing into that mass of thunder.

The originally jade-green thunder suddenly turned blood-red, then immediately exited elementalization, transforming back into Su Qingli's figure.

She could be seen with her eyes tightly shut, face showing pain, her slender delicate body falling powerlessly toward the ground.

"Hahaha! Success! Su Qingli will have to be buried with me!"

Nira, who had fired this spike, had become incomparably weak, but her voice was filled with unprecedented excitement.

"Seeking death!"

Xu Jingming was furious.

Chaos Divine Thunder surged out wildly, the Heavenly Thunder Divine Punishment Sword condensed once again, crashing down toward her!

'Ding, killed one ninth-step mid-tier Divine Blood Emissary, ability points +400,000.'

The system notification sounded, and Nira was blasted to death on the spot, but Xu Jingming didn't feel the slightest bit of happiness.

Transforming into a black stream of light, he rushed toward the falling Su Qingli and caught her.

Boom!!

Xu Jingming's imposing figure, over three meters tall, landed on the ground.

Su Qingli in his arms looked incomparably petite.

She could be seen with her eyes tightly shut, her delicate brows knitted together, and an unhealthy flush on her fair pretty face.

Under Xu Jingming's spiritual perception, Su Qingli's aura was incomparably weak.

She didn't have the slightest bit of a ninth-step Spell Saint's imposing presence, not even as much as a first-step ability user.

"Eva, what's my teacher's current condition?" Xu Jingming asked anxiously.

An ability user's combat techniques were as vast as a sea of smoke; he could be considered quite experienced.

But he still couldn't tell what combat technique that crimson spike just now was.

"Wait a moment, I'll scan first."

Eva's holographic projection poked out from the smart armguard.

With a small wave of her hand, pale-blue virtual light projected from her eyes and fell onto Su Qingli.

After a full ten-plus seconds, Eva finally said with a solemn expression:

"That crimson spike just now should be the Tianming Sect's SSS-grade combat technique 'Grudge Blood Spike'.

This is an extremely vicious life-risking move, killing a thousand enemies while damaging oneself by eight hundred.

Once released, it will exhaust the caster's entire body's qi and blood; if the caster is a ninth-step powerhouse, it will also exhaust the indestructible substance.

Those who fall victim to it either die outright in severe cases, or suffer grave injuries in mild cases, their vitality plummeting to rock bottom.

There's no immediate danger to her life right now, but if follow-up treatment isn't possible, she'll die very soon..."

Nila is a mid-tier ninth-rank Wu Sheng, and the Resentful Blood Spike she condensed is enough to instantly kill a lower-tier ninth-rank Arcane Saint.

But Su Qingli possesses an S-rank ability, and her foundational strength is extremely solid, which is why she survived.

In reality,

this was already Nila's optimal solution.

Plant-type lifeforms have formidable vitality, so the Resentful Blood Spike is useless against her.

And Xu Jingming was too far away, so in the end Nila chose Su Qingli.

"Resentful Blood Spike?"

Xu Jingming's gaze was icier than ever before, and he growled in a low voice:

"Tianming Sect — one day, sooner or later, I'll wipe every last one of you out!

Let's go, find another place first before we keep talking."

He collected the spatial rings from the three Tianming Sect members.

Xu Jingming held Su Qingli in his arms and transformed into a streak of black flowing light, swiftly flying away from the area.

"Master, it's Xiao Lian's fault — I failed to protect Master's teacher."

Somewhere on the ice plain, more than a hundred meters underground.

A subterranean space of over a hundred square meters and more than five meters high had been excavated here.

Su Qingli lay on a soft bed woven from Clematis vines.

Xu Jingming stood beside the bed, and a wave of apologetic spiritual force emanated from the Clematis.

"It's not your fault — that person struck too fast for you to block."

Xu Jingming shook his head and asked Eva, "What are the ways to deal with this Resentful Blood Spike?"

"There are two ways.

The first is to use a large quantity of healing-type natural treasures for treatment.

Generally speaking, an SSS-rank healing-type natural treasure would be enough to restore most of her.

But she still wouldn't be able to return to her peak — perhaps only an SSR-rank natural treasure could fully cure her."

Eva said softly, "The second method: the Tianming Sect has a ninth-grade pill called the 'Blood Healing Sacred Pill.'

This pill can not only dissolve the Resentful Blood Spike, but also convert its energy for one's own use.

That person just now was a mid-tier ninth-rank Wu Sheng — if the Resentful Blood Spike formed from indestructible matter could be converted for one's own use,

then Teacher Su's physique would receive a considerable boost.

It's just that the Blood Healing Sacred Pill is extremely rare, and is generally only found on key figures within the Tianming Sect..."
