The Legend of the Demon Hunter

The loud "boom, boom" sounds continued, and a huge skeleton over ten meters tall strode towards them with a bone knife in hand. His movements seemed slow, but each step was seven or eight meters long, so he moved very quickly.

Yu Han was about to meet the enemy, but found that the skeleton did not approach him, but rushed towards Xiao Zhu at the edge of the formation.

Yu Han knew the strength of this skeleton very well. With Xiao Zhu's current soul hunting realm, he would have no chance of winning against it. He held the Gilded Black Sword horizontally in front of him, intending to block the skeleton's path.

“Chatter…” A hoarse laugh came from the air: “Your opponent is me.”

Yu Han looked towards Zhongli Laogui and saw a horrifying scene that left him dumbfounded.

Zhongli Laogui’s shirt was torn open, his upper limbs and torso were skinny, his two nipples had turned into two eyes, and a huge and terrifying mouth grew at his belly button.

At this moment, his mouth was opened to the extreme, and a little ghost with a dark green body came out of his mouth.

After the little ghost came out, it disappeared in a flash. When it reappeared, it had already arrived next to Yu Han. The speed at which it burst out was so terrifying that even Yu Han was far behind it. Among the people he knew, perhaps only Wan Yixing, who had the blood of space, could be compared with it.

It seems that under the urgent situation, Zhongli Laogui is finally going to use all his strength. Yu Han transformed the Liuwu Sword into nine sword shadows, surrounding his body, carefully guarding against the little ghost's sudden attack.

At the edge of the magic circle. With Cardinal Yingkong blocking in front and giant skeletons chasing behind, Xiao Zhu saw that this battle was inevitable, so he carried Xiaoya on his back and fixed her to his body with vines.

As soon as he finished all this, a giant skeleton rushed in front of him, raised a huge bone knife and slashed down at Xiao Zhu.

Facing this murderous knife, Xiao Zhu exerted his spiritual power to the extreme, and the blade of the Greedy Wolf Sword turned golden all over, blocking in front of him.

With a clang, the bone knife hit Xiao Zhu's Greedy Wolf Sword, which flew out of his hand, and Xiao Zhu was knocked down from the air to the ground. He felt severe pain in his arms. If it weren't for the strengthening of his body by the Refining Pill, his arm bones would have been broken directly.

The power of this giant skeleton's attack is comparable to the full-strength attack of a soul hunter!

Xiao Zhu was lying on the ground, and before he had time to catch his breath, the giant skeleton quickly caught up with him in two steps. It obviously had no intention of letting Xiao Zhu go, and it raised the huge bone knife and chopped him down again.

"Boom!" A huge round pit was blown into the ground by the force of this blow. Xiao Zhu was in the center of the pit. He was holding a white shield in his right hand, which was the Xuanwu Shield he obtained at Yanhui Peak that year.

The Black Tortoise Shield helped Xiao Zhu withstand most of the impact, but the remaining force still almost took his life. He felt as if all the bones in his body were shattered, and the spiritual power condensed in his chest was completely dispersed, and a large amount of blood spurted out.

In his current state, even with the help of the basalt shield, he would definitely not be able to withstand the next attack from the giant skeleton.

The skeleton saw the blood spurting out of Xiao Zhu and let out a wild and joyful roar. It pressed forward step by step until it came in front of Xiao Zhu, and then used all its strength to chop Xiao Zhu with the bone knife. The power of this attack was even stronger than the previous two attacks.

"Boom!"

As the blow landed, the ground shook violently, dust flew everywhere, and everything around was covered in dust.

"Xiao Zhu——" Yu Han shouted in despair at the other end of the battlefield.

At the moment when he was distracted, the little ghost quickly broke through the sword shadow barrier around him, opened its mouth wide, revealing sharp fangs, and bit Yu Han's right arm holding the sword.

"Ah!" Yu Han groaned in pain.

Just as Yu Han was about to break free, he suddenly felt the blood in his body surging and flowing back towards his right arm. He had never heard of such a situation before, and his brain suddenly began to buzz due to lack of blood flow.

Yu Han understood instantly that this little ghost was sucking his blood!

......

When the smoke and dust cleared, a gully more than ten meters long appeared on the ground, like a scar on the earth.

But Xiao Zhu was nowhere to be seen on the ground.

The skeleton raised his head in confusion, and saw a pair of dark red wings in the air holding up Xiao Zhu's shaky body. In the moment of danger, he escaped with the power of flying.

"Swish!" A sound of wind was heard. It was Yingkong's arrow flying towards him. Xiao Zhu was exhausted and could no longer dodge. The arrow hit Xiao Zhu's wing. Xiao Zhu let out a cry of pain and fell to the ground from the air.

Under the siege of giant skeletons and a soul hunter, Xiao Zhu has used up all his cards. Now he can only wait for death.

The giant skeleton also realized this. It walked in front of Xiao Zhu, and seemed to have received an order from its master to capture Xiao Zhu alive. It threw away the bone knife and grabbed Xiao Zhu with its two giant skeleton hands.

The moment the skeleton's hands touched Xiao Zhu, a dazzling light suddenly burst out around Xiao Zhu. The light was so strong that even Yu Han, the hunting king, and Zhongli Laogui could not see clearly what was happening there.

After a moment, the light dissipated, and Xiao Zhu's figure disappeared completely as if it had evaporated out of thin air. Xiaoya, who was on his back, also disappeared with him.

Immediately afterwards, a "crash" sound was heard. The giant skeleton collapsed and shattered into bones and fragments on the ground. After that, there was no movement.

This scene fell into the eyes of Zhongli Laogui. His expression was unbelievable at first, and then slowly became hideous and terrifying. This giant skeleton was carefully crafted by him over decades, and its strength was comparable to that of a demon hunter in the early stage of the hunting king. Even though Yu Han, who was holding the Gilded Crow Sword, failed to defeat it in a short time, he did not expect that it would be completely defeated by a hunting spirit in some strange way.

He turned his head to look at Yu Han. The little ghost was still biting Yu Han's right arm and was desperately sucking Yu Han's blood.

Yu Han was in a very dangerous situation at this time. He had never heard of such a powerful little ghost that could suck the blood of living people, and he didn't know how to deal with it. In just a short moment, one third of his blood had been sucked away. If it were an ordinary person, he would have died of excessive blood loss. Fortunately, he had a deep cultivation base, so he managed to hold on, but after this battle, his strength would surely decline significantly.

What's even more terrifying is that as the little ghost continued to suck his blood, it became more and more active, as if it was absorbing Yu Han's spiritual power for its own.

As one gains strength while the other loses strength, I'm afraid Yu Han will be sucked into a dried corpse in no time.

Yu Han suddenly remembered what his father had reminded him: when encountering a ghost spiritual practitioner like Zhongli Laogui, don’t confront him head-on but stay away from him.

He noticed with his peripheral vision that Xiao Zhu had disappeared out of thin air. Although he didn't know where he had gone, all the Novan students had escaped by now, and the barrier was about to close completely with only a tiny gap left.

Yu Han finally made up his mind. He clenched his teeth, held the Liuwu sword in his left hand, and the sword drew a sharp arc, cutting off his right arm with one blow.

After his right arm was cut off, Yu Han turned into a ray of light and rushed out at the last moment before the barrier closed.

His broken right arm quickly lost all the blood in the ghost's mouth and became shriveled.

Zhongli Laogui never expected that Yu Han would choose to cut off his arm to survive. In a hurry, he didn't have time to stop him, and he let Yu Han escape.

All the people who sneaked into the Saint Maiden City this time escaped, and what was even more intolerable was that they took away the treasure of the Saint Maiden City, which made Zhongli gnashed his teeth. However, the Red Lotus Cult had an iron rule. Now the Pope was not in the city, and as a city guard, he was not allowed to leave the Saint Maiden City no matter what happened, so he was forced to give up the pursuit.

Old Ghost Zhongli stared at the direction where Yu Han disappeared for a long time. He suddenly realized why it took so long to activate the barrier this time?
