Sole Sword Supremacy-Chapter 513 - 517: Blood Burning Pill, A Fight to the Death
In fact, it wasn’t just Yang Hong; the Maiden of the Sea’s gaze towards Wang Junze was also filled with complexity and sighs.
To be honest, whether it was Yang Hong or the Maiden of the Sea, their feelings towards Wang Junze were genuine. They truly regarded Wang Junze as a friend, but still, a friend’s friendship and personal interest are two different matters!
Whether it was the chance to kill Qu Lishang or the Great Nether Mirror, both were too important and enough to drive anyone insane.
Moreover, they had Saint Realm Powerhouses behind them, which were not easily abandoned.
In such circumstances, to try not to strike at Wang Junze and leave him a path to survive was already very worthy of the word "friend."
"I am Wang Junze, not Ye Piaoling."
With one hand resting on the Sword Edge to support his body to avoid collapsing, Wang Junze stood up with difficulty and answered seriously.
A very simple sentence, yet it clearly stated Wang Junze’s attitude.
Ye Piaoling has done his best, but as long as Wang Junze is alive, he will not back down.
Of course, there was another meaning hidden within this.
You said your friend is Ye Piaoling, right? Then go ahead, even if you kill Wang Junze, it wouldn’t be a betrayal!
"Why bother?"
Sighing, the Maiden of the Sea said helplessly: "We’ve known each other not just for a day or two. We are well aware of your current state... You are already exhausted, and even if you force yourself to hold on, you would just be losing a life in vain!"
"Wang Junze, you’ve done more than enough, but... too many people want to kill Qu Lishang, you can’t stop them!"
Have I done enough?
Upon hearing this, Wang Junze couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile.
Whether it was initially killing Dugu Feng, retreating from the Nether Sea, rushing to the Capital City to seek the Creation Golden Lotus, persuading Monk Benyin, forcing those under Prince Yu to the Nether Sea, deceiving the Night Spirit Demon Venerable, Wang Junze indeed did everything he could think of, it cannot be said that he didn’t try his hardest.
But... it’s still not enough!
Compared to Jing Yuan’s flawless strategies, Wang Junze was still far behind in this regard.
Starting with the failure to calculate the position of the whale, every step afterwards was a mistake, step by step leading him into a dead end with what he thought was a perfect plan having too many flaws!
"I am still alive!"
Shaking his head, Wang Junze lifted his head again, answering calmly: "As long as I haven’t died, nothing is over."
"You’re right, as long as I haven’t died, you can’t harm Young Master."
Taking a step forward, Peng Ru raised the Li Shang Sword, and a decisive look appeared in her eyes as she spoke seriously.
Peng Ru’s strength wasn’t actually strong, even if she desperately urged the power of the Li Shang Sword, at most she could only exert the full force of a Divine Travel Powerhouse’s attack, and only one strike.
Yet, in the face of death, Peng Ru still had no regret, standing in front of Wang Junze, fulfilling her promise to him.
Her life belonged to Wang Junze!
"You still... haven’t won yet!"
Not far away, Huang Siyu suddenly spoke again: "If you want to kill Young Master Wang, you’ll have to get through me first!"
Biting her teeth, Huang Siyu once again stood in front of Wang Junze.
Wang Junze hadn’t ordered her, but Huang Siyu was very clear, from the moment she destroyed the elixir that suppressed the Blood Covenant, she had no retreat!
Now that Situ Haokong is also dead, when Wang Junze actually orders her to fight to the death, the hard-earned favor from before would be gone. Instead of this, she might as well hold on till the end to see if a miracle can occur.
"Then... let’s die together!"
After a moment of silence, a cold killing intent emerged in Yang Hong’s eyes once more, and he shook the Ten Thousand Souls Banner fiercely, launching it towards Wang Junze.
Having come this far, he couldn’t back down either, only to kill to the end!
If there was any reluctance towards Wang Junze, Yang Hong had none towards Huang Siyu and Peng Ru; he had no sympathy and planned to kill them first, severing all of Wang Junze’s hopes before proceeding.
"Woo woo woo!"
Countless ghosts flew out from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, issuing a mournful wail, instantly sweeping towards Wang Junze.
This time, Huang Siyu had no retreat and could only stand firm in front of Wang Junze, using Path Domain to resist the attack from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
Slightly raising his eyelids, a hint of madness also emerged in Wang Junze’s eyes.
He could command Huang Siyu to protect him; with the Blood Covenant, Huang Siyu couldn’t refuse, but... he knew well that Huang Siyu couldn’t hold them off.
Huang Siyu excelled in poison and hidden weapons, not in protecting anyone, so as long as Yang Hong and the Maiden of the Sea wanted, there was always a way to bypass Huang Siyu and attack him directly.
Worst-case scenario, even if they genuinely didn’t want to kill him and just fully focused their efforts on attacking Huang Siyu, she couldn’t hold on for an hour.
Thus, to win, the only hope was to fight together with Huang Siyu, to kill, or at least severely injure the Maiden of the Sea and Yang Hong, to seize a glimmer of hope.
Of course, Wang Junze had already exhausted his strength; under normal circumstances, he had no power left to fight.
But... if he had to risk everything, he still had one more chance to strike!
With a slight flip of his palm, a bloody elixir fell into his hand.
Blood Burning Pill!
This was one of the elixirs from Miss Fang, used to risk one’s life. When he fought Miss Fang before, Wang Junze had seen the demon cultivators under her consume such elixirs.
Earlier, within the Judgment Department, Wang Junze had exchanged almost all other elixirs except for keeping one Blood Burning Pill to risk his life!
Without any hesitation, Wang Junze raised his hand and swallowed the Blood Burning Pill straightforwardly.
In an instant, Wang Junze felt the blood within his body boiling crazily, as if a fire was raging and consuming not only the Essence Blood but the Divine Soul too!
Just that this level was still not enough!
"Burn for me!"
Using the effects of the Blood Burning Pill, Wang Junze once again urged the Essence Blood and Divine Soul within him, burning them wildly in a final desperate struggle!
On the brink of despair, the only thing he could gamble on was this life!
"Crack!"
In an instant, Wang Junze’s Divine Soul burned fiercely, filling his already dry meridians with a surge of overwhelming True Qi, a power exchanged for with his life!
Like Sword Rain falling!
All the power, in that instant, transformed into a terrifying Sword Rain, propelling Wang Junze to slash once more!
Strangulation!
The identical Sword Techniques, but this time, with the force given by life, the strike was even stronger than the one that just killed Situ Haokong!
One strike to slash!
