Chapter 3112 - Swordbeast Cultivators?
It was evident that the darkfiends had greater numbers, so they had the upper hand. The situation had become extremely perilous for that group, with the suppression and confusion afflicted on their souls being particularly severe.
"Swordbeasts?" Tianming felt a familiar sensation from the Bluemaple cultivators. Surprisingly, they were a group of sword cultivators like the Lin Clan, possessing swordbeasts! They were beastmasters, and their lifebound beasts had all transformed into swordbeasts, integrating into their swords. It made their individual combat prowess extremely formidable. With the swords possessing divine abilities, their killing capability was quite ferocious.
Among beastmasters, swordbeast cultivators were considered to have strong individual combat capabilities comparable to specters. However, they were different from specters. Specters maintained a balance between offense and defense, while swordbeast cultivators were stronger in offense but weaker in defense.
Strong offense but weak defense. Their cultivation system undoubtedly forged a very tough and tenacious character. The Swordgod Lin Clan was like that, appearing weak but actually fierce and unyielding.
Encountering sword cultivators in a foreign land gave Tianming a sense of closeness. So without hesitation, he descended like a meteor. His entire figure was like lightning falling from the sky, piercing through the battlefield in an instant!
Skyscorch Wrathlotus!
En route, Ying Huo had already fully accumulated the power of the technique. The little lotus, condensed with terrifying power, was enough to distort the surrounding primeval source, forming a vortex revolving around the Skyscorch Wrathlotus.
As Tianming descended, the inch-sized lotus smashed directly toward the nearest darkfiend. The closer he came, the more he realized that they were almost indistinguishable from an archaionfiend. They were bloody and ferocious, with strong abilities in soul confusion and intimidation. If it weren't for the Skysoul Tower, his soul would have been invaded long ago.
The smell of blood filled his nose.
The darkfiend he was targeting noticed him and lunged at him, its maw full of blood-red lightning.
"Explode!" Such a tiny Skyscorch Wrathlotus couldn't be seen by the darkfiend with its eyes, but it could sense the terror of the attack.
Even so, Tianming's approach was too abrupt. The lotus directly smashed into the face of the darkfiend closest to him and exploded at close range. It exploded and the compressed infernal flame surged out, instantly engulfing the darkfiend, blowing open its face, and its head burst apart.
It screamed in pain, erupting with endless blood-red lightning. The sound of its screams pierced through the Skysoul Tower, invading Tianming's soul, causing his head to ache!
"Damn! That hurt!" He frowned, taking advantage of the situation to immediately enlarge the grand xia lexicon wonder, turning it into over nine hundred characters that suppressed the darkfiend under them.
The fact that the Skyscorch Wrathlotus hadn't killed it indicated that its body was very tough. But as it was heavily injured, the grand xia lexicon wonder's power was even more effective, abruptly silencing its screams!
Tianming gripped the Grand-Orient Sword with both hands and hacked down, unleashing Imperator’s Mural backed with the power of ten totems, cosmic impulses, and his body. His entire body's muscles were coordinated; it wasn't just his hands wielding the sword, but also the explosive power from his legs, which was even more important than the strength of his hands.
In other words, even though Tianming was using a sword, the power of Lan Huang and Xian Xian was also greatly assisting. His lower body had to be stable enough to unleash astonishing power from above!
Sword ki tore through the darkfiend's skull, cleaving down from its mouth to its abdomen, very nearly splitting it in half. The darkfiend screamed, its internal organs bursting open and splattering Tianming. Finally, the sword ki finished its journey and cut the darkfiend in half.
Darkfiends didn't have an astral god’s body, so their bodies weren't composed of astrons. Thus, when killing them, the scene was even bloodier, with flesh and blood splattering everywhere, drenching everything in blood.
Tianming himself was also soaked in blood!
The darkfiend was obviously deader than dead. Without a word, Tianming used Fiveway Blitzrun and reached the top of its head.
He punched the darkfiend's eye socket and its blood-red eyeball popped out.
"Could this eyeball be the source of the darkfiend's soul attacks?" It was the same as the archaionfiend. The eyeball was quite large to Tianming.
"That is...." Tianming used the Sky Pludering Eye on the palm of his hand and immediately saw a certain different blood thread on the eyeball of the darkfiend. It was very small, like a tiny snake wandering around the huge eye.
Tianming's black arm directly stabbed into the eyeball and grabbed the blood thread. The blood thread frantically scrambled but was still seized by him. The Sky Pludering Eye glowed with a blood-red light that formed a vortex and gobbled up the blood thread.
The Sky Plundering Eye blinked. Tianming felt a little change in it, but it wasn't as significant as when he had directly absorbed the eyes of archaionfiends. But regardless, it showed that it was effective.
"Maybe every little bit counts!" Thinking of that, Tianming quickly absorbed the blood thread of the darkfiend’s other eye.
"There’s changes again. If I keep absorbing them, my Sky Plundering Eye will definitely change." Tianming had a premonition. He had already killed one of the eight darkfiends, which could be considered as resolving some danger for the sword cultivators of Bluemaple.
Those sword cultivators also saw him, and the myriadpath ring on Tianming was very conspicuous.
"Myriadpath Valley disciple!" The eyes of the dozen or so sword cultivators who were still fighting slightly changed, showing a sense of awe. Fortunately, Tianming was helping them, so their awe quickly turned into respect.
One of them said, "Thank you, sir! After we finish killing the darkfiends, we’ll pay our respects again!" From this sentence, one could discern the supreme status of Myriadpath Valley. And Tianming was still just a black ring disciple.
"Alright." Tianming didn't say much, preparing to continue killing the darkfiends.
"Sir, did you just destroy the darkfiend's eye? I heard that you gain merits with the darkfiend's eyes..." one of the sword cultivators asked in confusion.
"Is that so?" If that was the case, then Tianming was out of luck and could only say that he had no fate with merit points. But compared to merit points, he naturally preferred absorbing the blood threads.
