บท 26: The Wager
บรรณาธิการ: Vick
Tumu's expression was dark as he watched Kinmo's face with astonishment. His heart turned cold.
Kinmo's ghost like shadow gave Tumu, a brave and battlewise mercenary, chills all over his body. Facing these abnormal phenomenons, he took a step back and tried to analyse the situation first.
Shi Yan immediately knew that Tumu was scared as he started retreating. Seizing this chance, he rushed out with his dagger like a leopard. At the same time, he signaled Di Yalan to fight together with him.
Though Di Yalan was also a little scared, but since she knew that ghostly shadow was released by Shi Yan, she plucked up her courage to besiege Tumu from behind.
The pale, white light smoke, which contained refined negative power, began to intertwine around Tumu like a poisonous snake. Kinmo's ghostly shadow followed right behind it and arrived in front of Tumu instantly.
Suddenly, Tumu stated concentrating and without any hesitation, he began to practice his vigorous Profound Qi of the Third Sky of Nascent Realm with his secret method. The Profound Qi gushed into his left hand and exploded into a red light.
In an instant, there appeared a red protective shield of concentrated pure Profound Qi in Tumu's left hand. That red protective shield was glowing with red light and letting out extremely hot energy, though it was merely as big as a washbasin.
This shield, created with pure Profound Qi, was apparently Tumu's vital Martial Skill, which required a lot of energy to operate.
As the protective shield was produced, Tumu started perspiring hard on his forehead. He must have consumed a lot of energy.
The protective shield was sticking on Tumu's left hand. Seeing Shi Yan's negative power pouring toward him, Tumu immediately raised the shield without trying to block the negative power and Kinmo's ghostly shadow.
"Bzz bzz bzz!"
That strip of white fog containing negative emotions, along with Kinmo's ghostly shadow, sent sparks flying after bumping on the protective shield.
In the pervading sparks, the white fog faded away and the ghostly shadow seemed to be melting and dispersed into the air bit by bit.
Noticing the shield could hold against these two weird things, Tumu became a little relieved. He then sneered cunningly, "Kid, let me see what else you've got!"
����
A cold, evil air dispersed from the dissipating sparks. Unnoticed by Tumu, the air went into his body through his pores.
After that sneer, Tumu's face turned dumb and panic welled in his eyes.
A bright light crossed Shi Yan's eyes!
From Tumu's facial expressions, he knew that though Tumu had managed to clear away the powers attached to the negative emotions, he couldn't wipe all the negative emotions away. Some of it had already invaded his mind.
"Do it now!"
After a loud shout, Shi Yan sped up to his maximum speed. He appeared in front of Tumu all of a sudden, leaving behind a light shadow in the open air.
The dagger, with glowing blue light, abruptly stabbed towards Tumu's neck with a rush, looking as if it was lightning.
The protective shield in Tumu's hand was getting hotter and hotter. The temperature seemed to be waking Tumu up from the numbness.
Tumu opened his eyes abruptly!
"AAARRRGGGHH!'
Tumu roared, he had instantly suppressed all the negative emotions that invaded his mind, and at the same time, he drew a circle in the air with the axe in the right hand.
"Kachang!"
Shi Yan's dagger stabbed onto the axe while a terrifying explosive power came out from the axe. To his surprise, the power rushed towards Shi Yan's arm through the dagger.
Shi Yan's arm became numb, he immediately realized that Tumu's Profound Qi was very dense, therefore he moved the dagger away from the axe quickly.
Tumu didn't react to Shi Yan. Instead, he turned his body with a wind-like speed and blocked Di Yalan's short sword which came behind him with his axe. He said with a cold face, "I will f*ck you as hard as I can!"
Shi Yan's expression grew rigid and the bloodthirst surged into his mind.
Wielding his dagger, the muscles in his legs began to contract slowly as the same time. Negative power gushed out from his pores on the legs, covering them in a pale white fog.
As both his hands and feet went through the changes, Shi Yan couldn't control his bloodthirst any longer.
He was overwhelmed by the desire for killing, and his eyes were getting a tint of red, while his expression became as ferocious as a devil from hell. Even Mu Yu Die, who was watching on the side was so frightened that she covered her mouth with her hand.
"Hoooohoooo!"
Shi Yan's breaths got heavier and heavier. He stomped and could feel endless power in his feet. His skinny body advanced ten meters instantly!
He moved like a flying arrow. Fast and fierce!
Tumu's axe flew swiftly in the air and made endless clashing sounds. It forced Di Yalan to retreat as her arms got sore holding the short sword. She turned weaker and weaker under the severe attacks of Tumu's strong Profound Qi.
A forceful, murderous atmosphere suddenly came from Tumu's back. He had a evil look in his eyes as he struck with his axe again, making Di Yalan stumble backwards.
"Bang!"
Tumu kicked his leg impatiently onto Di Yalan's smooth abdomen heavily and she was kicked about seven meters away.
Di Yalan fell to the ground on her back with blood pouring out of her mouth. Her Profound Qi was entirely disordered and she lost all her strength at once.
Tumu's kick contained a surging explosiveness as his Profound Qi exploded in an instant. He aimed to drain Di Yalan's fighting capacity completely so that he could deal with Shi Yan.
Turning around, Tumu raised his axe with a vicious face. "Kid, I'm gonna chop you into a hundred pieces!"
Shi Yan ran up like an arrow and using his fierce momentum, he shifted all of his Profound Qi into his dagger.
As he waved his dagger, the shadows of the dagger fell like rain drops; along with it, a cold vicious power was sent out from the dagger and enveloped Tumu.
"Humph!"
Tumu took a deep breath and began to move the protective shield with his left hand. Warm wind flew out from the protective shield endlessly and drove the cold, vicious air away. Then he took up his axe and struck Shi Yan's dagger precisely.
"Bang!"
With a hard thump, Shi Yan felt a severe pain in his wrist, his dagger suddenly flew out and fell down on the earth dozens metres behind him.
Tumu was having a hard time too. The power gushing out from Shi Yan's dagger was very vicious. As he defended himself from it, he also stumbled and staggered back.
At the same time, a gust of cold, evil and terrifying energy, sprawled through his arms into the brain like a small snake and dragged him into a bloody trance again.
Shi Yan stood firmly as he saw Tumu' eyes become dazed, while stumbling, he retreated towards Di Yalan.
At that moment, his dagger was only dozens of meters away behind him. He would miss the best timing if he went to pick up his dagger and rush to Tumu; maybe Tumu would have come to his senses by then.
That thought flashed across in his mind like lightning and his eyes turned cold. Then he rushed to Tumu with all his strength and grabbed Tumu's waist with his arms. He pushed up with his legs and push Tumu toward Di Yalan with all might, and yelled, "Raise your sword and Stab!"
Hearing his shout, Di Yalan, who was lying on the ground exhausted, saw a huge dark shadow fall onto her.
Without any hesitance, Di Yalan summoned all her strength and raised her short sword which was as long as her arm.
"Puuuuh!"
With a severe pain, Tumu woke up as the sword stabbed into his heart. He flailed crazily and tried hard to keep his balance.
The sword stabbed into his heart as his body tilted in the air, and he didn't fall onto Di Yalan immediately.
With the support of his sword, Tumu kept that tilting position magically and didn't fall immediately, as if his legs had rooted in the ground.
Tumu struggled with all his strength but only to find his hands being tightly held by Shi Yan.
Shi Yan looked rather cool, as he smirked, "Wild dog, are you done?"
While beeing that position, Tumu shouted, "Bastard! Let go of your hands! The sword stabbed me; it can also stab you! Let go of your hand! You want to die with me?"
Tumu was really tough and he could still raise his leg like lightning under this situation. He kicked his knees into Shi Yan's belly heavily.
Shi Yan poured his Profound Qi crazily into his arms. Since he couldn't activate the [Dark Light Shield], he tried to use the Petrifaction Martial Spirit.
Tumu bashed his knees into Shi Yan again and again. Under that heavy striking, the power of Petrifaction seemed to be concentrated in Shi Yan's abdomen, while the other parts of his body were normal. His abdomen turned grey which was as hard as stone.
Under the attacks of Tumu, who was at the Third Sky of the Nascent Realm, Shi Yan could still support himself with the Petrifaction Martial Spirit. Though he felt extreme pain in his abdomen, he didn't spit out blood and his defensive power became abnormally strong.
Di Yalan who was under them came to notice that Shi Yan and Tumu were hugging tightly. If she thrust her short sword toward them, or Tumu fell down heavily, the sword would go through Tumu's body, and then into Shi Yan's body, sticking them together.
Knowing that Shi Yan would be stabbed along with Tumu, Di Yalan didn't dare act rashly, so she screamed, "Bastard! Release!"
"Wild dog, I'm shorter than you! But you will be the dead one, and I could only lose an arm at most!"
Shi Yan looked at him coldly with a smile. Then under Tumu's frightened eyes, he threw Tumu and himself with all his might onto Di Yalan.
"Poooh! Poooh!"
The sound of the weapon piercing the flesh and bone came one by one. Di Yalan was lying on her back, while Tumu was on top on her, and Shi Yan on Tumu.
The sword in her hand stabbed through both of them. It went through Tumu's heart, and then pierced itself into Shi Yan's right shoulder.
Tumu's heart was stabbed through. After several quivers, he died right away with an extremely terrified face.
Shi Yan looked hideous with his broken shoulder, but still didn't let go of Tumu.
After Tumu's Profound Qi spilled out of his body and went into Shi Yan, the latter was convinced Tumu was dead. Then, Shi Yan released his hands and laid his exhausted body down.
