Chapter 2527

Su Xiao, holding his long blade, lowered his body slightly. He held the Checking Zhan Long Shan horizontally in front of him, and a ring appeared on his left hand, causing it to be enveloped in a white light; this was the 【Blade of the Silver Moon】.

Su Xiao brushed his left hand over the Checking Zhan Long Shan, and a silvery-white luster clung to the edge of the blade. The Blade of the Moon effect was successfully applied, increasing the weapon's sharpness by 107 points and its attack power by 1220 points, with the effect lasting for 20 minutes.

Heavy footsteps came from in front of Su Xiao. The Black Armor Guards' pace was very steady. Due to postnatal drug injections, their average height was around 3 meters. Each of them held a heavy greatsword over 2 meters long, and their pitch-black armor was a full palm thick, making them look like biological tanks. They were a group of small giants wearing super-heavy armor.

It was no wonder the Third Prince had these Black Armor Guards protect him. With these guys around, plus the passage being only ten meters wide, the only way to get past them was to kill them all.

Divine patterns left by six ancient gods—such as Grace, Heaviness, and Cruelty—were carved into the armor and weapons of each Black Armor Guard. This was an iron wall that was difficult to cross.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Large feet encased in heavy metal combat boots stomped on the ground as three Black Armor Guards charged head-on. Black light flickered on their greatswords; two swung to slash, while one lunged to stab.

At a time like this, there was no ability more suitable than Demon Hunter Moment. A pale blue light emerged on Su Xiao's body, and he suddenly vanished from where he stood. When he reappeared, he was already half-crouched on the rear shoulder of a Black Armor Guard.

Holding his long blade horizontally, Su Xiao gripped the hilt with his right hand and hooked the spine of the blade with his left. With the blade pressed against the Black Armor Guard's neck, Su Xiao pulled back with all his might.

With a *shing* sound, the Checking Zhan Long Shan sliced through the chainmail at the Black Armor Guard's neck, and a massive head flew into the air. Su Xiao's body leaned backward from the force of the pull, his person unstained by blood.

A greatsword slashed toward Su Xiao's waist, but he vanished from the spot, and the greatsword slammed into the wall with a boom.

Su Xiao appeared between two Black Armor Guards, slashing his long blade to the left before immediately slashing to the right.

*Puchi, puchi. *

Two more heads flew into the air; the Checking Zhan Long Shan was just that sharp. Su Xiao activated Dragon Shadow Flash again. Within 100 seconds, all his active abilities had no cooldown time.

Su Xiao appeared in front of a Black Armor Guard and thrust his long blade forward. His hand gripping the blade could clearly feel the sensation of the tip piercing through armor and flesh.

With a *shing* sound, the long blade pierced through a Black Armor Guard's head. Su Xiao flipped his body, using his shoulder as a support point against the spine of the Checking Zhan Long Shan to fling the Black Armor Guard on his blade away.

Three greatswords stabbed forward in a crisscross pattern, piercing through Su Xiao's chest. His body became illusory, and the next moment, he was already standing on the blade of one of the greatswords.

"Blade Dao Knife · Extreme."

One slash claimed three heads, and three heads flew into the air. Su Xiao exerted force with his feet, the crystal layer beneath him detached, and he flipped his body in mid-air, dodging a greatsword thrown at him.

The moment he landed, Su Xiao's left hand made a pulling gesture. A Black Armor Guard not far from him began spurting blood from their entire body, with blood gushing out from the gaps in their armor.

With a crisp *clatter*, the broken-blade state Banishing was pulled back remotely by Su Xiao. The blood-stained Banishing split into dust-like particles, searching for the next target.

Clang, clang!

Two greatswords slashed toward Su Xiao but were blocked by a metal wire. Because the Boundary Severing Line was wrapped around the necks of two other Black Armor Guards, the heavy strike caused those two Black Armor Guards to be pulled down.

"Blade Dao Knife · Green Ghost · Chain."

Su Xiao slashed out twice in rapid succession, sending two cyan-blue blade flashes that left two Black Armor Guards severely wounded, blood spraying wildly from their necks.

"Blade Dao Knife · Absolute Nether."

In the passage, Su Xiao, who was continuously using Dragon Shadow Flash, was like a man chopping melons and vegetables, leaving the Black Armor Guards with severed limbs flying everywhere. Every so often, a head would be sent flying. Even though these Black Armor Guards were no longer human, being decapitated by Su Xiao meant certain death.

Five minutes later.

"Hoo, hoo, hoo."

Su Xiao's breathing was somewhat rapid, and the pale blue light on his body faded. He voluntarily deactivated Demon Hunter Moment; this ability consumed too much stamina, and using Dragon Shadow Flash continuously was not without a price—it consumed a massive amount of stamina.

Looking around, the underground passage Su Xiao had traveled through was filled with incomplete corpses. Blood splattered the walls on both sides and the ceiling, and the floor was covered in a thin layer of blood.

Su Xiao exerted force with his foot, and with a *crunch*, the metal helmet beneath his foot was crushed flat. The last Black Armor Guard was stone-cold dead.

【Prompt: You have wiped out the 'Magic Armor Guards'.】

【You have obtained 4.15% of the World's Source.】

【You have obtained Soul Coins x18.】

【Because you wiped out the Magic Armor Guards, you have completed the achievement mission: Baptism of Blood.】

【You have obtained the title 'Plunderer'.】

【Plunderer】

Origin: World of Origin

Quality:

Category: Title

Title Effect 1: After killing an enemy, the treasure chest drop rate increases by 0.15%.

Su Xiao felt quite surprised to see these reward prompts; he had actually killed his way to a title. This was the first time he had encountered such a thing.

The reward for killing the Magic Armor Guards was not as high as he had imagined. Compared to the Tianba tribe, who were eroded by the power of origin until they lost their sanity, the rewards obtained right now were very low.

Su Xiao had killed 50 Magic Armor Guards to obtain only 15 Soul Coins. In contrast, when killing the Tianba tribe previously, each kill yielded 8-13 Soul Coins. The two were worlds apart.

Su Xiao's feeling was that the high-end combat power of this world was mostly concentrated among the Tianba tribe or the Tower Keepers, and the ancient gods who had survived to this day also had to be taken into account.

Within the Tallin Kingdom, after excluding the strength of the Tower Keepers, the danger level did not reach the world difficulty of lv. 68.

As for where the Tianba tribe was, it could not be determined for the time being. If he couldn't find them, Su Xiao actually wasn't prepared to provoke them. Compared to the Tianba tribe, the ancient gods should be wealthier and easier to fight, after all, Su Xiao often dealt with god-type enemies.

In the underground passage filled with the smell of blood, Su Xiao picked up a torch from the wall and stepped forward. He had only walked a few steps when he received a prompt.

【Your follower has killed Dark Woman · Dominica.】

【You have obtained 1.2% of the World's Source.】

【You have obtained an Epic-grade treasure chest.】

The reduction in rewards was caused by Chifu assisting Amu in the battle.

It could be said that Su Xiao had utilized all his combat power to deal with the Third Prince. There was no need to worry about Liu's safety; she was brought along too and was currently squatting in the bushes in the castle courtyard with Bubu Wang.

Carrying the torch to the end of the underground passage, two metal doors blocked the way ahead—two very heavy doors.

*Ding. *

Su Xiao stabbed the door with his blade, creating a dent a few centimeters deep. He examined the dent in the metal door for a moment, then took a small bead from his storage space and stuffed it into the dent.

A few seconds later, cold air rose from the metal door. Su Xiao tapped it with his hilt, and the metal door shattered with a boom. This was the power of knowledge; hacking at this door or the wall connected to it like a blockhead would have taken at least half an hour.

A room illuminated by a dozen candles appeared. Inside the room, the Third Prince, wearing a white shirt with his chest exposed, sat on a chair, holding a glass of red wine.

"Is that sister of mine, who popped out of nowhere, really that charming? Did she play with you so satisfactorily? Let me guess, you participated in this matter to... take away the Royal Blood? Or is it the Water of Origin?"

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak, just walked quickly toward the Third Prince. This guy wasn't weak, and his abilities leaned toward mental influence.

"Yes, it's the Water of Origin. You must have come for the Water of Origin. You aren't the first, and you won't be the last to come looking for the Water of Origin. Give me two days, and I will..."

*Shing. *

The long blade slashed across the Third Prince's throat. After receiving the kill prompt and obtaining the World's Source and Royal Blood, Su Xiao turned and left.

"Wiped out. Withdraw after blowing up this castle."

Su Xiao hung up the communication, turned to walk out of the secret room, and casually threw an alchemy bomb behind him.

Boom!

Flames surged out from the doorway, blowing up Su Xiao's hem. He didn't believe a single word the enemy said. One had been eliminated, five remained.
