Dark Blood Path

Chapter 51: Killing the Ogre

Be it the armored ghoul or the ogre warrior, they were both the most powerful entities that anyone had confronted at this stage. Each one was catastrophic, enough to make any powerful human being fearful. The more these two monsters fought, the bigger their momentum became. The two sides had almost similar strengths, and both exhibited fiery temperaments. In this fierce conflict, theyd gladly injure themselves with 3,000 scars just to inflict 800 wounds on the enemy. They were reckless, practically putting their lives in danger.

The armored ghoul raised its pair of steel claws, leaving a deep wound on the ogres body. The latter swept out with its wooden mace and sent the ghoul flying several meters away. When it descended, its solid hind legs slammed onto the ground. After stopping its body, it rushed forward again, only to be hit by the ogres oncoming mace attack.

Aw!

The ghouls cheekbones were shattered, its eyes were bloodshot, and it roared angrily. Dark energy spewed from its mouth, bombarding the oppositions chest. The ogres crude clothing instantly turned to ashes while the black energy beam burned and pushed against its body. Its flesh withered and rotted quickly, and a massive chunk of meat in the chest area turned pitch black. Finally, the ogre bellowed, raised its wooden mace, and swept it down.

The blood-red energy shock wave collided with the black beam of light, and the two opposing forces canceled each other out. The ogres power was superior, and the red wave streak broke through the black beam of light, but the remaining power was meager, and it barely caused the ghoul to stagger back a few steps.

The ogre raised its mace and charged forward with thunderous strides. The ghoul was fearless, lifting its hideous face to brazenly meet the attack. The two frightening monsters engaged in a violent and deadly melee battle once again.

Boom!

One of the ghouls arms was broken.

Aw!

The ogres kneecap was crushed, and almost the entirety of its leg was slashed.

Initially, neither party gained an advantage over the other.

However, as time passed, the battle tide began slowly shifting.

Even with signs of evolution emerging around its body, the armored ghoul had roughly the same strength as the ogre warrior, but the latter bore the boost of its bloodlust ability. Unfortunately for everybody, the increase in its powers was more than marginal. And even the iron-armored ghoul, with its robust undead body and savage fighting style, could only hold on for a while; afterward, it gradually lost its standing, and the ogre warriors onslaught remained just as fierce as before.

The howls of the ghoul became weaker and weaker. At this moment, half of its head had been smashed and caved in; one eyeball was dangling from its cheek, and several teeth had been busted. In addition, it had a broken and fractured right arm and a bent spine, and six to seven ribs were also broken and deformed. Nonetheless, it did not choose to retreat. Instead, it pushed its left claw out, dug into the ogres abdominal wound, grasped the intestines and viscera within, and shook them violently. Its blade-like fingers cut through all the internal organs inside.

The ogre warrior howled in agony, then it clutched its wooden mace in both hands and struck the ghouls lone left arm, snapping it. Another attack was launched, as blood spattered on the ghouls gory back. Its fractured bones protruded through its skin, and the bone dregs mixed with pitch-black blood spilled all over the ground.

Xiao Yu had his eyes closed and wrapped his hands over his knees. He was quietly listening as the conflict developed.

Judging from the battle noises, the ghoul is in a difficult situation.

He thought as he stretched out his hand with difficulty, and the light of the space ring in his finger flickered before an ancient scroll materialized in his hands.

With a single thought, the scroll slipped from his grasp and unfolded itself in the air. The densely packed magic engravings on the scroll all lit up at the same time and flew out quickly, forming a complicated magic array pattern in the air that moved around as if alive. A tall figure emerged from the magic circle, accompanied by strong magic fluctuations; the figure progressed from hazy to clear and finally fully formed before him. It had sharp claws, purple-red hair, and bore a cold gaze This monster was precisely the poisonous zombie of the middle first-order realm!

Whether we can win this gamble depends entirely on you.

Xiao Yu controlled the poisonous zombies movements, and its body moved up and down a few times.

Following a low growl, poisonous smoke began to seep out of its body, and it jumped up from the ground and rushed into the woods, silently sneaking toward the middle of the battlefield.

Through the sight of his summoned creature, he realized that the outcome of this battle was already predetermined.

The ogre warrior would undoubtedly prevail!

Just as it was about to die from all of those terrible injuries, the ghoul suddenly leapt up in a last desperate attempt to bite the ogres throat. However, a powerful strike was delivered by the ogre warrior from below, and the ghouls jaw was immediately smashed, as were most of its teeth, and its corpse got hurled high like a ball flying in the air. Then, in the distant woods, a loud bang was heard as a large crater was formed on the land far away, where the ghouls corpse had plunged down.

The ogres neck arteries had been ripped off, and blood was gushing out of the wound wildly, but it didnt seem to care. Instead, it limped over to where the ghoul had landed, dragging its legs as it walked over.

The ghoul was lying on its back on the ground, its body twitching slightly, slowly dying, unable to stand up ever again.

The ogre raised the wooden mace and smashed the ghouls head into pieces. Unfortunately, this last blow seemed to exhaust the remaining bit of its strength, and the bright red color covering its body rapidly faded away, turning into a normal bluish-black.

Puchi!

Suddenly and without warning, a burst of venom shot from the sides, landing directly on the ogres body. When the highly corrosive venom touched its skin, a large amount of smoke immediately surfaced. The poisonous zombies venom was no joke, however, under normal circumstances, the zombies venom spray would not be able to do much harm to the mighty ogre, but in this case, where its body was entirely scarred, the poison could enter its veins quickly through those numerous wounds.

The poisonous zombie jumped out of the bushes, and its gushing fog covered all directions at once. A pair of sharp claws pierced fiercely into a wound on the ogres body while the poisonous fog instantly flew past and surrounded the monster.

The ogre warrior bellowed, knocking the poisonous zombie a few steps backward; the latter swiftly regained its footing before charging forward again, and its claws tore open another wound on the ogres body.

The latter swept its wooden mace at the zombie, which flew tens of meters in midair and knocked down two large trees before stopping. The monster then strode forward, and the zombie spewed another stream of venom, spraying toward the opposite party in a rounded shape. The ogre couldnt avoid being drenched in venom as more and more blue smoke came out from its skin. After inhaling that weird gas, it grew dizzy, and its strides became a bit erratic.

The ogre tossed aside its mace and scooped up the legs of the zombie that had fallen to the ground. The poisonous zombie exhibited no signs of weakness and struck the opponent with its claws, leaving two gashes on its torso.

Roar!

The muscles of the ogres arms bulged, and it suddenly made a tearing stance while exerting all of its strength. The left half of the zombies body was ripped apart, along with its leg, and just like that, the steel-tough body that Xiao Yu could barely harm was directly torn in half, and the purple-black poisonous blood of the dangling corpse splashed down the ogres face.

The monster forcefully threw the remnants of the poisonous zombie on the ground, raised its vast foot, and stomped it down heavily. The land collapsed underneath that force, and the zombies corpse was kicked on the head and broken into pieces, turning into a pile of meat paste.

Roar!

The ogre warrior had been poisoned to the core. Its awareness started to waver, the images in front of it blurred and became illusory, and its limbs grew weaker and weaker. But it stood tall as it picked up the wooden mace from the ground, stretched its arms toward the sky, and let out an earth-shattering howl as if declaring to the world that it was the victor.

However, the roaring stopped abruptly.

As a long gleaming blade pierced a specific wound on its chest area at that moment, the entire blade was almost entirely sunk in, leaving only a tiny section of the sharp edge exposed, reflecting an eye-catching cyan cold light. Xiao Yu held back the blades handle with his right hand, pushed it with his left, and let out a deep howl as he exerted all his strength; then suddenly, the last half of the blade pierced into the ogres body as well, completely piercing its heart.

The monster lifted one arm, its eyes wide open, ready to turn the man in front of it into mincemeat. However, what was usually a simple action, turned out to be impossible; after all, it was severely poisoned at the moment, had lethal injuries, and was already powerless. The arm that was extended with difficulty couldnt strike down anymore.

Its vast body remained motionless in the ground as if petrified but slowly fell backward after a few seconds went by. Then, with a blunt bang, the ogres huge and burly body fell on its back, stirring up a layer of dust in the vicinity.

It was finally dead!

This mighty monster died in Xiao Yus hands.

Xiao Yu could be said to have put all his eggs in one basket. To succeed in this surprise attack, he forcibly used bullet time once again, ignoring all consequences as he squeezed each and every drop of energy from his body. Now he didnt even have the strength to pull out his blade; he just turned over and fell to the ground, looking up at the sky and panting heavily.

Night has already descended, and the last smear of golden light in the sky has yet to fade away, but the stars loomed in the sky, making for a beautiful scene.

Xiao Yu absorbed a tremendous amount of energy after the ogre warrior perished, and his power was already close to the middle first-order stage. His strength had grown by a whole lot compared to before, though at this moment, even flexing his finger had become a lavish dream. If a monster happened to pass by at this moment, it would be disastrous for him; even a zero-order beast would be enough to end his fragile life.

But, if this actually happened, hed have to acknowledge that he was unfortunate indeed; after all, most beasts and wild animals had long evacuated the area in fear of the two monsters, so there was no use in fretting about it. Xiao Yu closed his eyes, calmed down, and adjusted his breathing. Then he took out a single soul gem from his ring, holding it in his palm to absorb its energy and regain some of his lost spiritual power. The tearing pain tormented his nerves while he rested there as minutes and seconds passed by.

About twenty minutes later, Xiao Yu opened his eyes again. The blood in his eyes had already congealed, his eyelids felt quite dry and heavy, and his hazy field of vision was covered with a layer of red. Then, suddenly, a muffled sound came from the surrounding woods. Worried that something was amiss, Xiao Yu crawled forward with difficulty, ignoring the feelings of exhaustion and pain, stretching out his shaking right hand toward the luminous beast blade and clutching its cold handle with his palm.

The blade was firmly stuck inside the ogres strong muscles, and Xiao Yu could not free it since he was still too feeble to push his body.

A big black bear with a body size of more than three meters came out cautiously and walked around the messy field. The lingering, bloody air of the battlefield made it fearful. However, after hesitating for a while, it slowly stepped in. Either because the beast confirmed that the ogre on the ground was already dead or because it noticed Xiao Yu struggling to draw out his blade, it suddenly grew courageous and crept over there slowly.

Its over; this is an elementary creature!

Xiao Yu despaired as he watched the beasts figure grow closer
