Chapter 300: Chapter 126: Wood Snake Seal! Blood Vein Divine Skills!_1
“`
“Could it be… that the reason why scions of noble families have special bloodlines is because they are demon monsters?” Su Changkong felt a shiver in his heart. Could the so-called special bloodlines of the noble family offspring truly be the blood of demon monsters?
But Su Changkong didn’t have the time to think about it any further at that moment. From the ground around him sprouted a multitude of dark green vines, like monsters that had caught the scent of blood, winding tightly all around him. In their midst, Su Changkong had no space to dodge.
Turtle Breathing Qi Armor!
With a thought, Su Changkong released his rich Turtle Breathing True Qi, which burst forth to form a three-inch-thick layer of armor around his entire body, sparkling and unbreakable.
“Hiss hiss hiss!”
Countless vines bound him tightly, enshrouding Su Changkong into a cocoon in the blink of an eye. The vines constricted and writhed frantically, attempting to force open the Turtle Breathing Qi Armor. However, the defense of the Turtle Breathing Qi Armor was so strong that, as long as the True Qi wasn’t exhausted, it would be difficult to damage it immediately.
“I want you dead!”
Mu Jin gritted his teeth with bloodshot eyes. He ferociously slashed his left fingernails across his right wrist, opening a huge gash from which blood began pouring out, seeping into the ground beneath.
“Squeak squeak squeak!”
The vines, as if catalyzed by the blood, rapidly swelled and grew from the thickness of a thumb to that of a baby’s arm, streaked with blood. They split open with tiny mouths, implausibly gnawing at Su Changkong’s Turtle Breathing Qi Armor as if alive!
“Eat him up! Leave not even his bones behind!”
With bloody corners of his mouth and a twisted face, Mu Jin cackled viciously. The Mu Family strictly ordered its members not to reveal their unique abilities before strangers; once revealed, the witness had to be silenced. Now, battered with broken bones by Su Changkong’s assault, Mu Jin could no longer care about such protocols. His only focus was to shred Su Changkong into pieces!
The vine with sharp teeth was too bizarre, making Su Changkong’s Turtle Breathing Qi Armor seem like rotten wood in front of it. One bite took a chunk out of it, and once the Qi Armor was breached, Su Changkong’s death was inevitable.
However, Su Changkong’s face showed no trace of panic, only the sharp gleam of determination flickering in his eyes. Inside him, the blade-shaped Blade Qi had long been humming and trembling, as he had been nurturing it to the extreme!
Blade Qi, the Blade Qi that Su Changkong had cultivated within himself using the Blade Nurturing Art, was known to be impregnable. It had enabled him to slay Feng Mo, a demon monster with an Immortal Body.
Now Su Changkong’s physique was far stronger than before, and he had even more Blade Qi accumulated within him!
The blade-shaped Blade Qi inside Su Changkong vibrated violently, bursting out from his limbs and body in a frenzy of explosive strikes!
“Hiss hiss hiss!”
The vines that had wrapped around Su Changkong, thick as a baby’s arm and resistant to swords, were torn apart with ease by the force of Su Changkong’s Blade Qi.
Cleansing the area within several feet around him, he shredded and pulverized the Monster Vines with his Blade Qi!
“How… is this possible?”
Several broken segments of Monster Vine flew towards Mu Jin, landing at his feet. He stared dumbfounded, unable to believe that his bloodline Divine Skills had been countered so easily.
“He is… that blade-wielding Martial Artist who killed the demon monster!”
Witnessing the Blade Qi bursting forth from Su Changkong, Mu Jin’s eyes widened as he suddenly made the connection.
When Mu Jin had previously gone to the desolate mountain where the demon monster dwelled, the creature had already been slain, and from the traces of battle left behind, it was clear that a Martial Artist proficient in blade techniques had done the deed.
Mu Jin had investigated every expert in blade techniques within Ink Forest Prefecture City, but not one fit the bill.
So, settling for the next best thing, Mu Jin had turned his attention to ‘Sikong Yong’—although no intel linked Sikong Yong to expertise in blade techniques, after a direct confrontation, Mu Jin concluded that Sikong Yong did not possess the strength to kill a demon monster.
But now, Mu Jin realized that Sikong Yong was indeed the one who had slain the demon monster!
Furthermore, with such combat prowess, Sikong Yong must have consumed and transformed the Crystal Core of the demon monster, boosting his own strength.
Soon, Mu Jin no longer had the luxury to think about those matters. Freed from his bindings, Su Changkong looked at him with cold, murderous eyes that almost seemed to solidify into reality.
“Mu Jin!”
A roar like thunder exploded next to Mu Jin’s ear, sending him into complete panic. He was a nobly born member of a millennium-old family, a scion who was feared by all outsiders, yet now, death was imminent!
“You… you’ve won… you can stop now. I am of the thousand-year-old Mu Family; if you kill me…”
Swallowing a mouthful of bloody saliva, Mu Jin attempted to intimidate Su Changkong by invoking his status as a noble family scion with a fierce yet fearful voice.
But such words only served to intensify Su Changkong’s urge to kill.
Not only did Mu Jin know he was ‘Sikong Yong’, but he also threatened that the Giant Whale Gang would pay the price. How could Su Changkong possibly spare his life? Only by killing him could he bring things to an end for good!
“Shhh!”
With a swift movement, Su Changkong shaped his right hand into a blade and slashed through the air. Severely wounded and suffering from a massive loss of blood, Mu Jin had no chance to dodge or defend himself. His head was severed from his neck, soaring into the air before crashing down to the ground.
Despite being decapitated, Mu Jin did not die immediately, his head facing upwards as his venomous eyes glared at Su Changkong: “You’ll soon join…”
“Crack!”
Before Mu Jin could finish, Su Changkong crushed his head underfoot into a bloody pulp.
“Hmm?”
