Chapter 1012: The battle with the Nine-Tailed Beast's original form

The candle flames flickered, black shadows swayed on the wall, and with the help of the faint, drifting beams of light, Su Yu saw the strange patterns climbing along the side of the door.

Su Yu glanced at the patterns, pondering carefully; he seemed to have seen those strange and eerie patterns before. He stood up, looked around, dipped his finger in the bloodstains to sniff them, and suddenly looked sideways at the patterns.

Su Yu frowned and walked toward the door. He picked up a fox tail and stroked it carefully; there seemed to be some patterns on the fox tail that Su Yu hadn't observed before. He compared them, and the patterns in the two places were actually the same.

Su Yu seemed to have realized something and rubbed his forehead in annoyance. He drew his finger across, and a drop of blood welled up between his fingers. Su Yu walked to the door, pinched his fingers, and the two bloods merged on the skull.

Suddenly, the faces of the two skulls became hideous and twisted for an instant, and then they rotated. With a loud bang, the door slowly opened. Su Yu raised his eyes in an instant, and a beam of purple light flashed toward him.

Su Yu slowly opened his eyes and looked silently at the scene inside the hall. Above the vast hall paved with purple stone were thousands of purple steps climbing, and above the purple steps, a hall chair stood majestically.

Su Yu stepped onto the stone steps cautiously and slowly, looking up at the hall chair. A single glance made Su Yu pause for a moment; he quickly ascended the purple steps, looked closely at the pattern on the hall chair, and remained silent.

On the hall chair was actually a blood-red pattern of nine points—that was the symbol of the Nine-Tailed Beast.

Su Yu naturally knew this. He looked at the pattern on the chair with a bit of bewilderment. When the Silver Python Beast left, it said that this cold, dark, and damp place like hell had many demon beasts. He led him over, but he only encountered the Nine-Tailed Beast and never heard the movements of other demon beasts.

The Nine-Tailed Beast was powerful and had nearly injured him. Perhaps in this Soul-Gathering Lamp, only the Nine-Tailed Beast had the ability to struggle out of the cage, or perhaps an outsider had broken into the forbidden area without permission, and the Nine-Tailed Beast needed to kill that person.

Su Yu had already sensed something wrong when he was sniffing the traces in front of the door. From the patterns to the bloodstains and then to the pattern on the chair in the hall, every step made Su Yu alert.

His gaze touched the blood-red pattern again.

Perhaps, the Nine-Tailed Beast was originally the leader of this domain!

Su Yu seemed to feel it; his eyes suddenly turned to the stone door, and low howls came from outside the door.

It seemed that because the leader of the Soul-Gathering Lamp, the Nine-Tailed Beast, had been killed by Su Yu, the hundreds of demon beasts now had some reaction, and they stopped outside the stone door, following the smell of blood.

Su Yu definitely couldn't go out now. He didn't know how many demon beasts were outside the stone door, but the roaring outside the door never stopped. Listening to the hissing accompanied by the sound of tearing and scratching, Su Yu pursed his lips slightly.

Su Yu crossed the hall chair and jumped down from the layers of purple steps. He looked around, as if looking for something. Su Yu ignored the noisy sounds outside the door and just scanned bit by bit.

The sound of footsteps on the purple stone echoed throughout the hall. Su Yu seemed to have sensed something; his footsteps stopped abruptly, his eyes widened slightly, filled with disbelief.

"You know, don't you, hmm?" A chuckle and a clear voice came.

Su Yu turned around abruptly. An enchanting man in purple clothes was lazily reclining on the hall chair. A playful voice entered his ears, and his slightly purple black eyes were cold, just staring fixedly at Su Yu.

Su Yu looked back at the man in purple vigilantly. His eyes moved, and he suddenly caught a glimpse of the pattern on the chair changing strangely; the blood-red nine tails turned into pure purple nine tails in an instant.

Su Yu slowly turned his eyes to look at the eyes of the man in purple, his expression becoming increasingly cold, meeting his purple eyes.

A chill instantly covered Su Yu's body. The hissing and scratching sounds outside the door were gone, and inside the hall was the silent mockery of the man in purple and his blood-red, bloodthirsty eyes.

········Seeking flowers········

Su Yu knew it; he knew it—the man in purple was the Nine-Tailed Beast!

Su Yu became vigilant, stared at the figure of the man in purple, and slowly pulled a dagger from behind his back.

The man in purple looked at Su Yu, saw the cold glint of the knife tip, reacted, and immediately flew toward Su Yu!

Its speed was so fast that it wanted Su Yu's life!

Su Yu gripped the dagger tightly in an instant. He only saw a blur in his eyes, and then discovered that the person had suddenly appeared behind him—

0············

Ghostly in form, with the sounds of demons and monsters.

Su Yu dodged abruptly. The man in purple had a sharper weapon than the dagger. Seeing Su Yu trying to dodge, the man in purple made him have nowhere to hide! The man in purple suddenly turned around and appeared behind Su Yu again in the blink of an eye.

Su Yu bit the tip of his tongue to ensure his reaction speed was raised to the maximum, but the man in purple was too fast; Su Yu couldn't even make the move of turning around and raising his hand.

The next second, the sword in the man in purple's hand pierced through Su Yu's palm.

Su Yu cried out in pain, his fighting spirit ignited by this sword. He turned his head, his teeth biting a thin blade, the dagger in his hand raised, stabbing into the air again and again.

His hand movements were fast, and even though the man in purple dodged quickly, he was inevitably scratched by the dagger in Su Yu's hand.

Su Yu gradually found the pattern of the man in purple's dodging. He stepped forward, his wrist turned, and he suddenly struck with the knife, but the dagger appeared at the man in purple's abdomen.

"Pfft—"

The tip of the knife sank into the man in purple's abdomen for a long time. ===== CHAPTER 1014 =====
