Chapter 33 The Blood Vine That Sucking Ghosts into Anemia (Seeking Recommendations and Further Reading)
After a series of clashes between Gyutaro and Danlei, due to the difference in strength, Gyutaro's body became unstable. Danlei seized the opportunity and suddenly kicked him away.

Gyutaro never expected that Danlei, who had been fighting him with weapons, would suddenly kick him, resulting in a solid kick to the abdomen that shattered his internal organs.

But this injury meant nothing to Gyutaro, who quickly got up and confronted Danlei again.

At this moment, Danlei began to understand what Han Ya had said.

Advanced Abundant Beasts are extremely disgusting. It's not that they are strong; in fact, the Cloud Cavalry's troop strength is usually three to ten times that of the Abundant Beasts in every battle. Even so, the Cloud Cavalry is always able to break through the enemy's lines in the early stages.

However, the bountiful creatures have exceptional regenerative abilities. Even those with average regenerative abilities can quickly recover by consuming the flesh and blood of their companions or the flesh and blood of injured/dead Cloud Cavalry soldiers.

This directly leads to the illusion that the abundant creatures are inexhaustible, since they have no wounded soldiers; once they are wounded to a certain extent, they become food for others, and similarly, logistics are no longer needed.

Now, Danlei is facing a similar situation. If Gyutaro hadn't had a prosperous destiny, this battle would have been decided long ago.

But now, with his abundant destiny and the ghost's own superb regenerative abilities, Dan Lei felt like he was fighting a monster with locked health. As long as he couldn't kill it instantly, it would remain unharmed.

So Danlei decided to use magic. After all, swordsmanship could be practiced slowly, and it would be pedantic not to use magic at this point.

Suddenly, Dan Lei raised his hand and made a grasping motion, and several small fireballs shot out from the blazing Kyogoku-ya behind him, heading towards Gyutaro.

Gyutaro, unaware of Danlei's tricks, chopped down all the small fireballs, only to discover upon closer inspection that they were actually jade.

These jade pieces were naturally lost by Dan Lei when he pretended to be "drunk and crazy." They were all jade pieces that contained magic and special plants.

The cleaved jade instantly emitted a green light, and several blood-sucking vines gushed out, binding Gyutaro.

This vampire vine was a magical plant specially crafted by Dan Lei for the ghost. Thanks to Chengzi, although the technique wasn't related to magic puppets, she took care of some of the plant-type "pets" she raised, so she knew how to craft magical plants from ordinary plants.

Of course, the Vampire Vine was never a high-end magical plant to begin with, and it was quickly developed based on the Japanese Golden Lantern Vine.

For ghosts, blood also plays a vital role in transportation; if the body lacks blood, its ability to recover will be greatly reduced.

However, even after being completely covered in vampire vines, Gyutaro wasn't nervous; instead, he remarked...

"A blood-sucking plant? What use is that? My blood is poisonous, what can your little plant do for me?"

Sure enough, as soon as Gyutaro finished speaking, the vampire vines that were binding him began to wither and fell off with a struggle from Gyutaro.

However, Danlei completely ignored Gyutaro's words and continued to provide magic power to enhance the growth of the vampire vine.

Despite being wrapped in a ring of plant-like vampires, Gyutaro was still in great discomfort. So he used his Blood Demon Art to unleash a devastating AOE attack, tearing apart all the vampire vines on his body.

However, the next second, he discovered that not all the vines on his body had detached; many were still firmly attached to him and seemed to have adapted to the toxins in his body, no longer withering away quickly.

Seeing how troublesome the plant was, Gyutaro raised his sickle at Danlei and said sternly.

"I'm starting to believe you have the Blue Spider Lily. I've never seen this plant in all my years of life. It seems you're a good grower."

After saying that, Gyutaro immediately rushed towards Danlei, intending to defeat Danlei first before dealing with the blood-sucking plant on his body. However, the outcome of their battle would not change; Gyutaro was now the one being beaten up unilaterally.

However, its idea was simple: no matter how many times it was hit, it only needed to hit Danlei once. As long as its scythe scratched the guy, its poison would render him unable to fight.

Therefore, Gyutaro's fighting style became increasingly reckless. He unleashed Blood Demon Art as if it were free, and as long as it wasn't aimed at the neck, he didn't care where Dan Lei's sword was slashing, he would trade blows for blows.

However, at this moment, Gyutaro also realized that something was wrong. The person opposite him was acting strangely; his blood-stained blade hadn't even torn the clothes when it struck him.

This is the effect of the Destiny Walker's unbroken Destiny Power defense.

Gyutaro was not skilled in using the power of the Abundant Fate Path, and could not integrate it into any move. He could only concentrate it on his body and scythe.

Without the power of abundant destiny to offset the power of hunting destiny on Dan Lei's body, Dan Lei's destiny protection is completely ineffective.

Protected by the power of destiny, external attacks, while not entirely neutralized, will generally be transformed into impacts that strike the body.

Therefore, when many travelers on the path of destiny fight, even though both sides are using swords, spears, and cannons, with all sorts of sword energy and bullets flying around, they end up with bruises all over their bodies but not a single cut.

For Dan Lei, although he was currently empowered by the power of the Hunting Fate, Gyutaro's Blood Blade Impact was not enough to affect him.

Moreover, as time went by, Gyutaro gradually felt something was wrong. He felt that the Blood Scythe in his hand was getting heavier and heavier, and his head was starting to spin.

Actually, if he looked down now, he would find that some of the blood vines on his body were already thicker than his arm, and the blood absorbed from his body had already caused him, as a ghost, to suffer from anemia.

Moreover, misfortunes never come singly. Daki, who had run away earlier, ran into Obanai Iguro not far away and was attacked by the three Pillars. She could be said to have been running away with her head in her hands the whole time.

However, due to her special relationship with Gyutaro, even after her head was chopped off and her body was infected by wisteria poison, she still did not lose her ability to move.

Even after Uzui Tengen found a wife and joined the war, he still couldn't find a good way to deal with Daki.

However, Uzui Tengen was quite clever. He suggested that they could separate the demon's body from its head, so that as long as the body couldn't grow a second head, it would only be able to attack randomly.

So, Uzui Tengen ran back to Danlei carrying Daki's head, shouting...
"Danlei, how long are you going to keep fighting? We've had that ghost's head chopped off here for ages!"

Seeing this, Dan Lei felt that the time was about right, and once again used magic to activate the growth of the vampire vines that had adapted to Gyutaro's poisonous blood, instantly binding them.

Then, with a sudden lunge, he easily severed his head.

However, Gyutaro, whose head had been chopped off, grinned maliciously.

"Don't think that the matter is over just because you cut off my head. I have already informed that person about the Blue Spider Lily. You wait, that person will find you."

After saying that, Gyutaro's body and Daki's head began to slowly turn into black ash and disappear.

Here, Gyutaro's self-destruction after his death did not occur because almost all of his blood had been drained, making it impossible for him to activate his Blood Demon Art. He could only slowly await his own death.
