Chapter 2774

In the front hall, one could hear a pin drop. Zange, Ayana, and the others were all full of vigilance.

Among these seven, Ice Armor was the most durable, while Zange held a short stick about a meter long, covered in carvings. This was the weapon the Crystal Elder had gifted Zange; this short stick had been passed down within the Lizardman race for many years.

This short stick was named "Sin Fall." It had two characteristics: indestructible, and every time it hit an enemy, the enemy's strength and speed would decrease by a fraction, while the user's own strength and speed would increase.

Of the remaining five, Oufu was an assassin, and the fat dwarf could fight from both long and short range. This guy was holding a metal tube as thick as an arm, looking like a very primitive firearm, with techniques carved on it.

The remaining Ayana and the Lizardman Elder were both long-range mystery-side users; one controlled the power of the aurora, and the other controlled the power of crystals.

The final one, Ta-mei, could sense and bind the enemy's mobility, and could also make people fall asleep.

Seven against one. Zange, holding the short stick, felt somewhat ashamed, but thinking that this was for the entire Azure Sky Continent, the shame in his heart vanished.

"Ah, it seems you've been surrounded."

Ayana's red lips curled into an arc. The Extreme Ice Lord in the main hall of the Ice-Sealing Hall had already been defeated, which made the smile on her face uncontrollable. She wanted to make the other party suffer a hundred, a thousand times the misfortune and pain she had endured.

Su Xiao looked around. It had been a while since he had fought with full force. He checked his current mana: 14520/14520 points. To restore it to 29520 points, he would need to cancel the summoning of Barbados.

Therefore, this battle would start with probing. Once he determined the enemies' general abilities, he could clear the field.

The pressure Su Xiao felt after being surrounded was not strong. Compared to fighting the Blood God, it was simply too weak. This had nothing to do with strength, but with intent.

When confronting the Blood God, it was the malice, killing intent, turbidity, and thick blood that rushed toward him. But these few people around him—their malice was too weak, simply incomparable to the Blood God; it wasn't the same concept.

As for killing intent, Ice Armor, Ayana, and Oufu were relatively prominent. Others had it too, but because they didn't kill enemies often, showing it now didn't have a deterrent effect.

Su Xiao took off his black feather cloak and tossed it aside. The 【Wild Night】 long leather coat gradually manifested on him. He raised his hand and gripped the hilt of the blade at his waist.

*Zheng~*

The long blade was unsheathed. With a boom, blood energy erupted with Su Xiao as the center point.

Silver hair flew. In the blood energy, Ta-mei retreated several steps. The pupils in her eyes trembled, and her legs shook. She recalled her previous experiences, which made her body tremble uncontrollably.

"Be careful! This is no longer the blood energy one could have from slaughtering hundreds, or even thousands of living beings."

The Lizardman Elder spoke in a deep voice. The moment he saw Su Xiao, he knew things were going to be bad. Even if the other party's expression was normal, the hidden pressure was too strong.

"Do not fear him, otherwise… you will lose the qualification to fight him."

Zange gripped the short stick in his hand tightly. At the same time, outside the ice mist wall of the front hall's main entrance, two petite figures were sitting under the ice mist wall. One of them was gnashing her teeth in hatred, while the other was holding popcorn in her arms, displaying the posture of a salted-fish girl.

At this moment, the fog wall in front of these two had turned into something resembling a one-way mirror, allowing them to see the situation inside. Of the two, one was, of course, Gulu. As for the other, it was the Biting Cat, a contractor from Holy Light Paradise, who had been hunted down by Gulu.

"You actually want to save me? Last time I almost slaughtered you."

Gulu turned her head to look at the Biting Cat, who was about her age.

"What can I do? I'm also very desperate. My 'Stockholm Syndrome' is acting up again."

The Biting Cat was eating popcorn, her eyes fixed on the situation inside the front hall.

"What syndrome?"

"Masochism. Simply put, it's hard for me to even feel hostility toward you lately. It lasts about 2 days? 3 days? Something like that."

The Biting Cat looked at Gulu with a smile. Her unique symptom was related to her ability. If Gulu wanted to kill her now, she would let the other party know what a "Salted Fish Thrust" felt like. She used this method to make many strong people speechless.

"Never mind me. Is that person inside really a contractor? If you told me he was the strongest boss of this world, I'd believe it. Now this scene… is a group of righteous little buddies, currently crusading against a villain boss?"

The Biting Cat's mouth twitched. Just then, Gulu stabbed a dagger into her chest, very abruptly, and then Gulu let out a low hum.

"It hurts, right? Stab my head, you'll hurt even more. This is my masochistic power, ahahahahaha."

"Power like a moron."

Gulu stopped paying attention to the Biting Cat and turned her gaze toward the inside of the ice mist wall.

Inside the front hall, blood energy spread, and fine cracks appeared on the surrounding walls. In this empty hall, Zange, Ayana, and the others didn't dare to step forward. Seven against one, they were actually somewhat timid.

*Peng. *

Ice Armor, with a hunched figure and holding a white ice sword, charged toward Su Xiao in big strides. After charging a few steps, he leaped. Just as he reached in front of Su Xiao, the ice sword in his hand slashed down crazily, using his exclusive mad-dog sword technique.

*Peng, peng, peng. *

Slashes appeared on the ground, and cold air overflowed. There was only one eye hole on Ice Armor's head armor. He looked forward through this eye hole, but didn't see Su Xiao's figure.

"Above!"

As Ayana shouted, she pointed her hand at Su Xiao in mid-air. A pale golden light beam as thick as a finger brushed past Su Xiao's ear, then turned to cut toward his head.

【Blade Dao Blade · Time.】

With a *dong*, an impact spread with Su Xiao as the center point. Everything around slowed down, and Ice Armor was the most obviously slowed.

After Su Xiao mastered the "Technique Sublimation" ability, the power of his blade techniques increased significantly.

The impact of Time spread, and the pale golden light beam as thick as a finger struck. After Su Xiao tilted his head to dodge while falling, he stepped on top of Ice Armor's head with one foot.

Just as Su Xiao stabilized his figure, a wind-breaking sound came from his side. It was a kinetic-filled light blue crystal. This was the Lizardman Elder's crystal power.

The moment Su Xiao stepped on Ice Armor's head, he used the landing point under his feet to turn and side-kick at the same time. Before this kick was even fully delivered, a crystal layer had already climbed onto his lower leg.

*Peng! *

Su Xiao kicked out. The fist-sized crystal broke through a layer of air waves and headed straight for the fat dwarf.

With a *boom*, the fat dwarf crashed into the metal wall behind him. He let out a "wah" and spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood. The crystal power exploded on his body, fixing him to the wall.

After kicking out, Su Xiao's body flipped in mid-air. Using this force, he pressed his left hand down on Ice Armor's head.

*Boom. *

Ice Armor's head was driven into the ground, and gravel splashed. The long blade in Su Xiao's hand flipped. He held the blade with a backhand grip and stabbed toward Ice Armor's spine. The "domain" of Blade Dao Blade · Time hadn't dissipated yet; solving Ice Armor first was a good choice.

With a *danglang*, Checking Zhan Long Shan was blocked by a suddenly appearing crystal. The crystal shattered in the next instant, and Checking Zhan Long Shan stabbed into Ice Armor's heart.

With a *peng*, an impact came from the right. Just as Su Xiao flew up, he slashed out a virtual blade.

【Blade Dao Blade · Green Ghost.】

*Zheng. *

A cyan-blue blade glow swept past, and a few strands of hair flew up. Ayana turned her body sideways. A light puppet was located behind her, forcibly driving her body to let her dodge this blade.

Just as Su Xiao landed, a short stick smashed toward him. At the same time, a spike-shaped crystal spread toward him.

*Dang, dang. *

Sparks splashed. After Su Xiao blocked Zange's two sticks, he made a move to slash out with full force.

Zange was shocked and immediately held the "Sin Fall" short stick horizontally in front of him.

*Peng!! *

Su Xiao kicked Zange in the abdomen. A large amount of crystal exploded, and a burst of Green Steel Shadow energy penetrated Zange's body, causing him to lose a large amount of body energy.

The splashing crystals spread toward Su Xiao. Su Xiao stepped on the ground, and blood energy surged, causing the broken crystals heading toward him to fly backward.

After several consecutive impacts, Zange broke two metal pillars that had been frozen brittle, and crashed into the wall.

If it weren't for the Crystal Elder covering Zange with crystals at the critical moment, he would have been at least seriously injured after taking Su Xiao's direct kick. As the Son of the World, Zange's greatest strength was that he was very, very resistant to beating. Of course, slashes and stabs didn't count.

*Zhi~*

The fully released Boundary Breaking Line tightened. Su Xiao leaped and stepped on the Boundary Breaking Line in mid-air.

It takes a long time to tell, but in reality, the battle just now happened in just a few seconds. Outside the ice mist wall of the main hall, the Biting Cat held a piece of popcorn in her hand, forgetting to put it into her mouth. The battle she had just witnessed had left her stunned.

Inside the hall, Su Xiao stepped on the Boundary Breaking Line, his eyes narrowing. He felt somewhat disappointed. He had originally thought they could have a life-or-death battle, but these seven had no tacit understanding at all. They often rushed up one by one. The Crystal Elder and Ayana in the distance had good tacit understanding, after all, they had rich combat experience.

Su Xiao walked on the Boundary Breaking Line in mid-air, the tip of the long blade in his hand dripping blood.

Zange, Ice Armor, and the others quickly gathered together. Zange's breathing was already chaotic, his body still somewhat numb, and his abdomen in severe pain.

Ayana's complexion was very ugly. Seven against one, they were almost pressed to the ground and beaten. And this was the power of technique-type experts.
