Chapter 570 Sword Bone
Chapter 570 Sword Bone
The cat demon licked the blood on the tip of its claws and its golden vertical pupils narrowed slightly.
At that moment, Lin Ci'an actually read a kind of strange...satisfaction in the eyes of the monster?
(Hiss—it hurts so much...)
The warm touch left on the claw tip was fed back to the nerves through the dual senses at the same time, and Chu Ziyu took a breath in his consciousness.
The cat demon form subconsciously licked the tips of its claws, causing the smell of blood to spread in its mouth - this was actually the taste of its own blood.
The golden vertical pupil moved slightly, and he caught a glimpse of the hideous wound on the shoulder of his human body.
The image of white clothes soaked in blood strikes the consciousness simultaneously through a double perspective.
Cold sweat oozed from Chu Ziyu's forehead, but he still maintained a steady posture holding the sword.
"Boss, are you okay?"
"...Shield it, quick."
Chu Ziyu responded with gritted teeth in his spiritual consciousness.
Mo Xue swung his tail and pretended to mock: "You are a swordsman, but you can't even catch my claws?"
——God knows how much he wanted to check his wound immediately.
"Evil beast!"
Chu Ziyu shouted angrily.
The Qingfeng Sword burst out with a blinding lightning, and the cat demon leaped back swiftly, but suddenly stopped in mid-air - Lin Ci'an didn't know where he got the courage from, but he pounced on it and hugged one of its tails tightly!
(?!)
A sharp pain came from the tail, and Chu Ziyu almost couldn't maintain his demon form. Is this kid crazy?! The cat demon instinctively raised the tip of its tail.
"You...don't even think about escaping...I want to...protect you"
His voice trembled, but he refused to let go.
The next second, a sharp pain came—the sharp tip of the tail pierced his palm directly!
"what!"
Lin Ci'an cried out in pain, but still held on tightly. Blood dripped down his wrist, forming a small pool of glaring red on the ground.
This delay was sufficient.
"Heavenly Thunder Attraction!"
Chu Ziyu threw Lin Ci'an out, and at the same time, lightning flashed from his fingertips. The Qingfeng Sword drew the power of heaven, and a dazzling pillar of lightning struck down!
Mo Xue's pupils suddenly shrank, and the Nine-Tailed Fox quickly gathered in front of him to protect him——
(Something seems to have mixed in with the lightning?)
——When Lin Ci'an was thrown away, a breath of thunder spirit root actually coiled up along the cat demon's tail!
(His spiritual power is actively resonating?!)
"boom--!!!"
A blinding white light exploded, and the blast overturned the entire ruins. When the light faded, only a few strands of silver-white hair were left, and the cat demon had disappeared.
The surrounding demons fled in all directions the moment the thunder power descended.
Chu Ziyu knelt on one knee, his Qingfeng sword deeply inserted into the scorched earth, and the sword body kept buzzing.
He lowered his head and gasped, his messy hair slipped from the scattered jade crown, and blood stuck to the pale sides of his face.
The white clothes were torn by sharp claws, and the wound on the shoulder was hideously rolled up. Blood flowed down the clothes, blooming a glaring red on the plain white cloth.
"cough……"
He suddenly choked on a mouthful of blood, which slid down the corner of his lips and left a shocking mark on his jaw.
(Perfect ending.)
He gave himself full marks in his heart.
But the next second, a message from 6872 came from his consciousness:
"Detected abnormal fluctuations in the target's spiritual power - natural resonance of the sword bone, harmless."
(Natural resonance?)
Chu Ziyu raised his head and looked at Lin Ci'an.
As the young man staggered to his feet, a ray of lavender lightning lingered on the wound on his palm that was pierced by the cat demon's tail. The lightning wrapped around his fingers gently, like a living thing.
"Master, Senior Brother..."
Lin Ci'an stumbled over, his voice trembling, "Are you okay?"
Chu Ziyu carefully observed his condition—no rampage, no pain, but...
(Is his spiritual power more refined than before?)
"It doesn't matter."
Chu Ziyu smiled gently and took the opportunity to probe Lin Ci'an's meridians. He found that the sword bone was indeed more active than before, but there was no sign of loss of control. "But you..."
He pointed to the wound on the boy's palm that was gradually healing, "Do you feel any discomfort?"
Lin Ci'an looked down at his hands, the lightning obediently sinking into his skin: "It's just... a little warm."
He blinked in confusion, "Like basking in the sun."
(Sunbathing?)
Chu Ziyu suddenly understood—Lin Ci'an's sword bone was not "passively awakened" but "grown naturally."
Just like plants grow towards the sun, his lightning roots spontaneously absorbed nutrients after coming into contact with higher-level lightning power (Heavenly Thunder).
While he was thinking, Lin Ci'an suddenly came closer and gently touched the wound on Chu Ziyu's shoulder with his bloody fingers: "Senior brother's injury... is much more serious than mine."
The lightning from the boy's fingertips quietly penetrated into the wound. Chu Ziyu only felt a numbness in his shoulder, and the pain was actually relieved a little.
"Target favorability +25, current favorability 40/100" 6872 reported.
(Tsk, this kid...)
Chu Ziyu looked helplessly at Lin Ci'an's sparkling eyes - they were filled with the cautiousness of "wanting to help but afraid of being scolded".
"Thank you."
He deliberately put on a stern face, "But next time, don't inject spiritual energy into other people's wounds casually."
Lin Ci'an immediately retracted his hand, his ears turning red: "...Yes."
Mo Xue escaped under the cover of lightning and landed on a dead tree outside the town.
He lowered his head to check the injury - one of the nine tails was charred by lightning.
