Chapter 2496: The Big Boss Stunned by Techniques
The Great Sword of All Kings slashed toward Su Xiao's back; the sharp blade sliced through the air, emitting a chilling, wailing sound.
Su Xiao ignored the Great Sword of All Kings entirely. A crystal layer clung to his left arm and armpit. He gripped his long blade tightly and unleashed an upward slash.
*Puchi. *
Fresh blood exploded from Karos's chest. She drove her ten fingers into the ground, shook her head, and seemed unable to comprehend what had just happened.
With a *Boom—*, a verdant green beam slammed into the Great Sword of All Kings, blasting the massive blade away.
Karos indeed hadn't seen clearly what happened, but her younger sister on her back, Kamila, had.
Time rewinds 1.7 seconds. When Su Xiao was surrounded by attacks from front and back, he first had the crystal layer cling to his left arm and armpit. Simultaneously, he slashed a blade aura forward.
The blade aura struck Karos's chest, slowing her pouncing motion for an instant. Seizing this opportunity, Su Xiao immediately turned sideways, leaned his body forward, and raised his left arm, aligning his armpit with the incoming Great Sword of All Kings.
The moment the great sword slashed down, Su Xiao clamped his left arm tight, catching the Great Sword of All Kings in his armpit. To ensure absolute success, he had previously coated his left arm and armpit with a crystal layer.
Was that it? Of course not. While catching the Great Sword of All Kings with his armpit, Su Xiao used the sword's momentum to flip his body in mid-air, using the 20-centimeter-wide Great Sword of All Kings to block the verdant green beam shot by Kamila.
The Great Sword of All Kings flipped in mid-air and, with a *Click—*, stuck diagonally into the ground. Su Xiao stepped on the end of the great sword with one foot and the hilt with the other, the shattered crystal layer falling off his left arm.
"Just now, what happened?"
Karos didn't care about her bleeding chest; she stared fixedly at Su Xiao.
"Something... rather terrifying happened."
Kamila spoke in a low voice. At this moment, her gaze toward Su Xiao began to fill with fear. She wondered, fighting such a monster, could they really win?
Ignoring her sister's thoughts, Karos reached out her right hand and pulled her arm. As silver-gray flames ignited on the Great Sword of All Kings, it pulled away from the ground and flew toward her.
Su Xiao landed from mid-air. He didn't stop Karos from reclaiming the great sword; he was waiting—waiting for the moment she gripped the Great Sword of All Kings.
Karos gripped the Great Sword of All Kings. Just as she was about to charge forward, she felt a numbness in her arm.
*Zzz—*, pale blue electric arcs exploded on Karos's hand, clinging along her arm, and finally submerged entirely into the wound on her chest.
The instantaneous pain caused Karos's movements to falter for a split second. It was just that split second; Su Xiao had already appeared before Karos.
"Watch out!"
Her sister, Kamila, shouted, palms facing forward, and a somewhat blinding green fluorescence appeared.
*Crack, crack, crack—*
A crystal layer clung to Su Xiao's front; everything illuminated by the green fluorescence began to turn into wood.
*Snap—*, Karos slashed the crystal layer apart with her sword. Behind the shattered crystal layer, a long blade met her.
A massive force transmitted from Su Xiao's hand. The ground beneath his feet seemed to have detonated explosives, yet he didn't retreat a single step. His arm gripping the blade exerted force, and he stepped forward.
*Bang! *
A shockwave spread before Karos. Her arm gripping the sword was lifted uncontrollably. Under her disbelieving gaze, she actually retreated half a step. Not only that, a dull pain appeared throughout her body, and she felt unable to exert strength.
The moment Karos retreated, Su Xiao delivered a straight kick to Karos's calf, causing Karos to fall to the ground with a *Boom—*.
*Zheng—*
The long blade slashed across Karos's head. How sharp was the Holy Spirit-level +12, gem-encrusted Zhan Long Shan? One slash pierced half of Karos's head, not only blinding her eyes but also damaging a large amount of brain tissue.
"Ah!!"
The pain stimulated Karos. Although she had fallen to the ground, she relied on the length of her arms to swing the great sword, slashing wildly in front of her.
*Clang, clang! *
After blocking two slashes, Su Xiao leaped sideways. Before he even landed, the third sword came.
Su Xiao's entire body muscles tensed, his long blade held in front of him.
*Clang! *
Successfully blocked again. Su Xiao exerted force throughout his body, leaning forward.
With a *Bang—*, a shockwave spread. Karos, already fallen to the ground, rolled backward due to the massive force. She vomited blood with a *Wah—*. Just as she was about to support herself with her arms to stand up, Su Xiao had already rushed in front of her.
Still a straight kick, Su Xiao kicked Karos in the chin. If one were to observe Karos's muscles with X-ray vision, one would find that her muscles tensed for an instant, then spasmed due to the full-force tension, and finally naturally relaxed and went numb.
Karos was kicked backward to the ground by Su Xiao. Kamila on her back was pressed down and groaned in misery. A blade aura struck.
A very shocking scene appeared: Karos, whose body size was twice that of Su Xiao, was beaten by Su Xiao until she was rolling all over the ground, unable to even stand up.
"Ptooey."
Karos spat out a large mouthful of blood and stood up from the ground, hunched over. Looking at her now, there were at least a dozen slash marks all over her body; the most severe was her left arm, which was almost severed.
Unless Karos actively charged over or was attacked at a weak point, Su Xiao rarely took the initiative to move forward. Compared to Karos, Kamila on her back was more dangerous. The wood-transformation of any part of the body was fatal to Su Xiao, who fought based on technique.
These two sisters' abilities, at first glance, seemed like nothing, but in reality, they hid murderous intent. As long as Su Xiao was held back by Karos, Kamila on her back could definitely injure him. Once a part of Su Xiao's body turned into wood, facing Karos, who could convert speed and strength, he would quickly fall into a disadvantage, leading to a larger area of his body turning into wood.
Su Xiao certainly wouldn't give the enemy such an opportunity. He never attacked the physically weak Kamila, just to avoid raising the two sisters' vigilance. There was only one chance: either kill Kamila in a short time, or simply not attack her at all.
Having been slashed by Su Xiao with over a dozen blade auras, Karos didn't dare to charge forward rashly. She hunched her body and walked slowly in a circle, while lowering her body—this was telling Kamila on her back to prepare for a final showdown; they couldn't drag it out any longer. The will of the Kings had already begun to erode her, and her ears were as noisy as a meeting.
Su Xiao moved his left hand and told Xiang Bubu Wang nearby through the team channel to leave the bedroom as soon as possible. The enemy's next attack would definitely have a large range.
The facts were the same as Su Xiao had guessed; his combat experience saved Xiang Bubu Wang's life.
"Roar!"
Karos looked up and roared without warning. Kamila on her back pressed her hands on the back of her neck.
A visible sound wave spread, mixed with verdant green light particles. Wherever the sound wave reached, everything turned into wood—the ground, the ceiling, and the debris on the ground were all the same.
Su Xiao blocked in front of him with one arm, and more than half of the Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy in his body was released, clinging to the surface of his body.
With a *Hum—*, the sound wave enveloped Su Xiao. At the speed of this sound wave, there was no possibility of dodging.
The moment the verdant green light particles landed on Su Xiao, they were devoured by the Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy. The Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy couldn't reverse the wood-transformation, but it could prevent it, though the consumption was huge.
A wind pressure struck from in front of Su Xiao. He was waiting for this very moment.
The long blade and the great sword clashed repeatedly. Waves of counter-shock force transmitted to Su Xiao's right arm. He discovered that compared to before, Karos's strength was no longer that exaggerated; after all, it had been temporarily reduced by 15 points.
"Now!"
Karos roared. Her sister on her back opened her eyes wide, her pupils contracted to the limit, staring fixedly at Su Xiao.
"Death... Life."
Karos and Kamila's eyes stared directly at Su Xiao simultaneously. One had gray-white pupils, the other had verdant green pupils.
*Crack, crack, crack—*
A substance like gray rock clung to Su Xiao's body surface. Karos gripped the sword with both hands and stabbed with all her might.
With a *Crack—*, the great sword pierced through the gray-rock-covered Su Xiao, directly penetrating his chest. Seeing this scene, a satisfied smile appeared on Karos's face.
Beside the blade of the great sword, a piece of gray rock buckled, revealing the scene inside. It was empty.
*Green Shadow King. *
Behind the Karos sisters, Su Xiao's left arm raised, his fist clenched. A crystal layer instantly clung to his entire forearm, making his entire forearm and left hand somewhat translucent, presenting a pale blue color. The meridians inside were exceptionally clear, flowing with Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy.
Five over 4-meter-long Law-Extinguishing Blades appeared, piercing Karos's body from all directions, pinning her to the ground. The Green Shadow King used in an instant wasn't flashy, but it was faster.
Exile detached from Su Xiao's sleeve, forming a hiltless piercing sword, heading straight for Karos's head. Karos, pierced by the five Law-Extinguishing Blades, tilted her head back with all her might, and Exile narrowly grazed her chin.
Exile changed direction in mid-air, this time attacking Karos's chest, but Karos pressed her body down with force. *Puchi—*, her body was cut a few more times by the Law-Extinguishing Blades, narrowly dodging Exile.
Karos clearly sensed that once injured by Exile, the consequences would be very serious.
Exile turned again, but after stabbing several times, it was barely dodged by Karos. This made Karos feel joyful; she had already adapted to this battle.
Facts proved that sometimes one shouldn't think too much. A brief sense of achievement might very well be a trap set by the enemy. Karos didn't notice that at the tail end of Exile, a metal wire was entangled.
Exile submerged into the ground, piercing into the metal layer under the stone slab. Su Xiao pulled his left arm.
*Zzz—*
The metal wire tightened, binding Karos. It was the Boundary-Breaking Line with Soul Silk clinging to the outer layer.
Karos's eyes glared in anger, her full mouth of flat teeth bared, her arms exerting force, intending to break free from the restraint of the Boundary-Breaking Line.
Blood splattered everywhere, the Boundary-Breaking Line cutting into Karos's skin and flesh. The Boundary-Breaking Line, augmented with the Soul Silk ability, was not something Karos could break free from.
Su Xiao's left arm pulled, releasing the wearing state of the Black King Armguard. The crystal layer formed spikes on the Black King Armguard, which Su Xiao stepped into the ground with one foot.
Su Xiao rushed forward quickly, leaping onto Karos's back in a few steps, a cold glint flashing on the blade edge.
Just at this moment, a sharp pain appeared in Su Xiao's body; his health dropped by 50% abruptly! He had been vigilant against Kamila, but the opponent didn't know what ability she used to slowly erode his body, and now it all exploded.
Su Xiao forcibly ignored the sharp pain in his body. Battle is life or death; screaming wouldn't alleviate the pain, only delay time. In a life-and-death battle, a split second could decide the outcome.
Three slash marks intersected across Kamila's body. Su Xiao didn't look at Kamila again, but stepped forward on Karos's back, the muscles on his right arm gripping the blade slightly bulging, the long blade raised, a horizontal slash.
*Blade Dao Blade · Extreme. *
*Zheng! *
A pale blue slash aura flashed across Karos's neck. Her struggling body suddenly stiffened, and then it didn't move; the trembling pupils in her eyes also stopped.
A bloodstain appeared on Karos's neck. Her massive head fell to the ground with a *Boom—*, and fresh blood sprayed from the severed neck.
"Die with us."
The already shattered Kamila spoke. Her body quickly turned into wood, and a blinding white light emerged.
*Thud! *
The white light enveloped everything, and the bedroom became completely quiet. In the white light, a pair of bull horns could be vaguely seen. ===== CHAPTER 2497 =====
