Chapter 1875: Headless

1806 Headless

"How is blood this solid?" the man asked himself while holding onto the piece of blood armor's part. "How is blood this strong?"

He crushed the solid blood and found how solid it was. He could crush it now, but earlier it felt even harder. It was as though the blood had lost its hardness over time.

He let the crushed blood drop from his hands, and let the powder float into the wind and get taken away.

"Brother Gangjin, you did it!" the woman moved toward Alex's corpse, holding onto an activated formation plate, and smiled at the man with wide eyes. "And just in time too. I thought I was going to die."

The other two men that had been fighting Alex came closer too and congratulated the man.

"Did you kill the Nascent Soul too?" one of the men asked.

"No," the man named Gangjin replied. "It hasn't appeared from his body. "I wonder why."

"You should just crush his Dantian to be safe. Maybe it is still sticking in there."

The man thought for a moment and nodded. "It's better to be sure," he said. "Has anyone noticed us yet?"

"No, I activated the barrier the moment his head came off," the woman said. "I do not know if someone noticed it or not, but we have to hurry either way."

"You're right," the man said.

He looked back at Alex's headless corpse and took a deep breath as he had done what everyone wanted to be done. Now, to make sure he was truly dead in body and soul, he had to destroy the soul too. So, he pulled the sword back.

Or at least he tried to.

The sword had seemingly been caught in something and couldn't be pulled back. He tried a little harder and still he couldn't pull it.

'What the hell? Did it get stuck in that hardened blood?' he wondered. He couldn't believe that he would have to use Immortal Qi to pull out a sword too.

All four people's attention instantly shifted toward the side as a large snake appeared in the formation out of nowhere, completely made of blood and nothing else.

"It's this man's beast," the woman said. "It must have realized he was attacked and come back to protect him."

"Well, what are you waiting for? Go attack—"

The man's words were cut off as he felt something happen in a moment when he had let his guard down. He slowly looked down and saw that 5 spikes, made entirely from blood, had dug deep into his chest and abdomen.

Blood spurted out of the man's mouth as he realized that his heart and his Dantian had been pierced by these spikes of blood.

'What happened?' he thought with numbed emotion. He couldn't tell if someone else had done something or if Alex had a defensive technique that was set to launch after his death.

"How did I—"

He looked up and saw similar gazes from one of the men and the woman, who were looking down at their own chests as more spikes had pierced through their bodies as well.

Only one last man had a protective barrier around him that had activated from a talisman that he kept in his body at all times.

It had stopped all of the spikes made out of blood that were entirely coming out from Alex's body. The spikes pulled back into Alex's body, disappearing all at once.

As for the people that were attacked, their bodies started losing control over their Qi and they started falling down even as they desperately tried to find a healing pill for themselves.

The final remaining man wasn't sure what had happened, but he knew that Alex's corpse had done something just now. He took his spear and got ready to attack, only to have to turn around for the blood snake that was making its way toward him.

The Blood Snake had an aura that made the man think it had a cultivation base of Saint Transformation's 9th realm. As someone in the Saint Transformation 6th realm himself, the man had no way of fighting against the beast in any capacity but a single one.

He reached into the body and pulled out the remaining Immortal Qi and sent out a terrifying attack at the Blood Snake.

The Blood Snake opened its mouth, creating a pool of blood in front of it, and attacked. The attack was a Water attack, that now used Blood instead.

It was a rather terrifying attack at Saint Transformation 9th realm, but the attack it faced was in the Immortal realm.

That single attack destroyed the blood attack that the Blood Beast made and then destroyed the beast itself. The blood beast disappeared in a rain of blood with no more aura to sustain itself.

A single bead of hardened blood, that was the core of the beast, crumbled and floated away into the wind.

The beast died in that one attack, but the man had no chance to take a break. Something was happening to Alex's body, so he turned around to confront him.

Just as he did, Alex swung his sword and cut the man's head off before stabbing him through the Dantian to kill his soul as well.

Alex pulled Midnight out and swung it to get rid of the blood coating it. He reached for the man's falling body and took it into his Soul Space.

He looked down at the 3 other falling bodies teleported next to them and swiftly killed the ones that weren't dead before taking their body as well.

He let the formation plate fall down and felt the barriers of the formations pass through him as it fell.

A few people saw him reappear and gasped when they saw how he was.

His head had grown back swiftly, but a sword still stuck out from his chest, right from his heart.

Alex grabbed the sword from the hilt and pulled it out slowly. The hole it left behind healed quickly and a layer of hardened blood covered it immediately as the Blood Armor reformed below his robes.

Alex looked at the sword and realized that it was quite a nice sword. He stored it as well and paid attention to his surroundings to see if someone else was going to come attack him.

It didn't seem as though they were. Most people were busy with their own fights. Only a few paid attention to his arrival and that too perhaps only because they saw the Snake fly into something and disappear.

"Brother, are you okay?" Whisker asked through his bond.

"Yes, I'm fine. I was ambushed, but I killed them," Alex said. He couldn't help but wonder if he alone had been their target because they knew he couldn't use Immortal Qi.

Alex then took a moment to look at his body. He had found something quite fascinating today.

When he let his head get cut off, he assumed that he would have to wait until it grew back on. He knew it would only be a split second when he would black out before coming into consciousness.

However, the moment his head was cut off, instead of blacking out, his consciousness had been transferred into his Nascent Soul instead.
