How many times does a normal person have to die in the world of cultivation?

Chapter 299 5 thunder strikes

Li Xiaoxiao was full of doubts. The behavior and aura of the "Hu Mantian" in front of her were completely different from the Hu Mantian she was familiar with.

She guessed that it was the foreign soul she discovered last time, but it was very weak, and Hu Mantian's main soul seemed to be normal. In addition, the matter happened suddenly and she could only put it aside temporarily. She didn't expect to forget about it in her busyness.

It seems that this outsider is still quite powerful and has an evil nature. Such a soul cannot be kept. Once he becomes stronger, Hu Mantian will definitely be possessed by him.

At this moment, her physical condition has recovered to its peak, and having absorbed a lot of energy from monsters, her strength has improved even more.

While he was thinking about how to take out the soul without hurting Hu Mantian, the monster that was originally lying on the ground to rest finally noticed the change in Hu Mantian's strength and began to struggle again.

Hu Mantian seemed to be attached to the monster's body, holding the monster's scales tightly with both hands. No matter how the monster tossed him around, he could not be shaken at all.

There was a crazy light flashing in Hu Mantian's eyes, he raised his hand high and punched down.

The fist hit the monster's flesh hard. The rough and bloody surface only dented slightly for a moment, and then regained its original elasticity.

However, the monster's body suddenly trembled and it let out a deafening roar, as if the power of the punch had struck its soul directly.

Hu Mantian did not stop and punched the monster seven more times in succession on the back. Each punch was as powerful as thunder and the wind from the fists was whistling, as if even the air was torn apart.

After the last punch landed, he turned around and landed lightly back on the ground, his clothes fluttering, looking calm and unrestrained.

The monster's huge eyes stared at the tiny human in front of it, filled with anger and unwillingness.

It tried to move its huge body to fight back, but its limbs seemed to be bound by invisible shackles, and no matter how it struggled, it could not move.

As time passed, its breath became weaker and weaker, and only intermittent low growls could be heard from its throat.

The huge body began to tilt slowly, and finally fell to the ground with a loud bang, stirring up a cloud of dust that covered the sky.

The dust gradually dissipated, and Hu Mantian stood there with a stern look in his eyes, giving people the illusion that the battle just now was just a casual act.

Li Xiaoxiao used his spiritual sense to probe and saw that all the organs inside the monster had been crushed into meat paste as if they had been thrown into a blender.

It is estimated that the large-scale damage has made it unable to regenerate.

"He is very strong! I'm afraid even Hu Mantian himself can't display such strength!" Li Xiaoxiao thought.

At this moment, Hu Mantian's body was covered with black blood, and he was wearing rags to barely cover his body. His slender figure looked even taller in the afterglow of the setting sun, like an invincible god of war.

He slowly turned his head and looked at Li Xiaoxiao, the madness in his eyes had not yet completely faded.

"You... who are you?" Li Xiaoxiao asked vigilantly.

He didn't answer, just looked at her coldly.

A thick blood-red mist surged around his body, and the faint cries of countless wronged souls could be heard in the mist, rushing towards Li Xiaoxiao with endless evil and terror.

Li Xiaoxiao's eyebrows were raised, the yin and yang energy in her body was running wildly, and the power of purple thunder was sizzling on her body surface, forming an indestructible shield that kept the black mist out.

"It seems that you are determined to occupy Hu Mantian's body!" Li Xiaoxiao shouted angrily, and the Red Blood Sword in his hand shone brightly. The black and red sword body was wrapped in purple thunder, exuding a fascinating breath.

She tapped her toes lightly and rushed towards Hu Mantian like a flash of lightning. The red blood in her hand drew a sharp arc and pierced Hu Mantian's throat.

Hu Mantian curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer, without dodging or evading. The Red Blood Sword stopped one millimeter away from his throat, but even so, its hard outer skin still bleeds.

"You can't kill me."

He said it so confidently.

Li Xiaoxiao bit her lip, her eyes complicated, but she quickly regained her composure and stabbed again.

He turned his head to avoid it, but the blood still left a red mark on his neck.

But he seemed to have no sense of pain. He quickly formed his right hand into a claw and directly faced the Red Blood Sword that was swinging at him again.

The hand collided with the sword, making a harsh sound of metal friction and sparks flying.

Hu Mantian's strength was so great that he actually caused the Red Blood Sword to shift slightly. At the same time, he slapped out with his left hand, gathering energy in his palm, like a scorching sun, carrying a breath of destruction, and smashed towards Li Xiaoxiao's chest.

Li Xiaoxiao remained calm and dodged sideways.

The energy flew past her clothes, leaving a bottomless pit on the ground.

The hem of the skirt began to burn. Li Xiaoxiao's muscles shook, and a wave of air passed through her body, putting out the flames.

Then he pointed towards the sky, and in an instant, the clouds in the sky changed color, and countless purple thunders fell from the sky, like huge pillars of heaven, bombarding towards Hu Mantian.

Hu Mantian was not afraid at all. He let out a long roar towards the sky, and the blood mist on his body instantly expanded several times, completely enveloping him.

The purple lightning struck the mist, but was slowly swallowed by the mist without causing any damage to it.

Li Xiaoxiao was stunned. She always felt that this breath was very familiar. When she came to her senses, Hu Mantian had appeared behind her, and his sharp claws grabbed her back without hesitation.

Li Xiaoxiao subconsciously used his backhand to block the Red Blood Sword behind him. With a "clang" sound, the two swords collided and Li Xiaoxiao took advantage of the force to roll forward.

Hu Mantian didn't give her a chance to breathe and pressed forward.

Li Xiaoxiao could only awkwardly swing the sword quickly in front of him, forming an impenetrable sword net.

Hu Mantian slapped the sword net with his palm, making a "clang" sound, but he was unable to break through.

Li Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed, and the yin and yang power in his body merged perfectly with the power of purple thunder, and surged out madly along the Red Blood Sword.

The sword net shone brightly, and it actually forced Hu Mantian to retreat step by step.

There was a glimmer of surprise in Hu Mantian's eyes. He didn't expect that Li Xiaoxiao's strength had improved in such a short time.

He curled his lips into a smile and decided to use all his strength to fight in close combat!

The two figures quickly crossed each other on the battlefield filled with blood, the sounds of fists and feet colliding were endless, and the air was filled with a depressing and murderous atmosphere.

Li Xiaoxiao frowned, her hair was soaked with sweat, and a few strands of hair stuck to her cheeks, which were red from the exertion.

The red blood sword in her hand flickered with a cold light in the sunlight, and every time she swung it, it brought up a sharp sword energy.

Hu Mantian was surrounded by a strange blood-colored mist. The wails of the wronged souls in the mist seemed to be able to penetrate into the depths of people's souls, making people uneasy.

There was madness and ferocity in his eyes, and every move he made was carried with the momentum of destroying the world, and each move was aimed directly at Li Xiaoxiao's vital points.

As the battle continued, both of them felt exhausted. To put it bluntly, their physical strength was equal. Originally, Li Xiaoxiao's physical strength was equal to Hu Mantian's strength.

They both had many wounds on their bodies, and blood slowly flowed down Li Xiaoxiao's arm and dripped onto the charred ground.

Although Hu Mantian felt tired, his attack became more fierce.

Li Xiaoxiao was careless and revealed a flaw. Hu Mantian seized the opportunity and attacked fiercely. Li Xiaoxiao instinctively used swordsmanship to resist in a panic.

With a "puff" sound, the Red Blood Sword actually pierced straight into Hu Mantian's chest.

Li Xiaoxiao widened her eyes, her face full of fear and regret. She had never expected such a mistake to happen.

She didn't want Hu Mantian's life, otherwise she wouldn't have fought so hard.

However, something even stranger happened.

The Red Blood Sword did not absorb Hu Mantian's blood into the sword body as it did in the past. Instead, the sword body shone brightly, and a tremendous force like a surging tide continuously surged into Hu Mantian's body.

Li Xiaoxiao suddenly stood there in a daze, her eyes wide open, and countless images flashed through her mind in an instant.

Only then did she realize why she felt that Hu Mantian's aura was so familiar since the battle began.

Her thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the time before she obtained the Red Blood Sword, when the Red Blood Sword had not yet been modified by her. It was this aura that made her feel terrified.

She clearly remembered that when she first came into contact with the Red Blood Sword, she had no power to resist and was sucked alive and turned into a dried corpse.

Before Li Xiaoxiao could recover from her shock, Hu Mantian kicked her hard, hitting her in the abdomen.

Li Xiaoxiao only felt a pain, and the whole person flew out like a kite with a broken string, and fell heavily to the ground a hundred meters away, raising a cloud of dust.

Hu Mantian had a sneer on his lips. He grasped the Red Blood Sword that was inserted in his chest with his bare hands and pulled it out violently. With a "swish" sound, the Red Blood Sword was easily pulled out by him. There was not a trace of blood on the sword body, but instead it was flashing with excitement.

"I never thought that I would meet my old friend here again." His voice was low and hoarse, carrying a hint of joy at reunion after a long separation.

Li Xiaoxiao struggled to get up from the ground. Blood gushed out of her mouth and the taste of rust instantly filled her entire mouth. But she endured the pain and swallowed the blood back.

She covered her chest, the severe pain in her chest made her breathing become rapid, "What do you mean?"

Hu Mantian played with the Red Blood Sword in his hand, and the sword flashed with cold light as he moved. "This is my life-saving magic weapon."

He said it lightly, but when these words reached Li Xiaoxiao's ears, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Li Xiaoxiao felt a black screen before his eyes, as if struck by lightning, and almost fainted.
