Chapter 885: Absorbing

Still not dead?

Realizing that Fang Heng was still moving quickly, Zhao Tai was once again surprised by his opponent’s powerful defense.

On the other hand, the four mercenaries who had accepted Old Black’s mission saw Fang Heng’s miserable state through the thick fog, and a layer of cold sweat covered their foreheads.

That was close. Fortunately, they didn’t provoke that Duke of the vampires.

Only that mysterious guy could withstand it. If it were any one of them, they would have died!

“Hu!”

In the eyes of outsiders, Fang Heng had already been blasted into a bloody man by the blood-colored spikes!

Fang Heng forcibly withstood the dense attack of the sharp spikes and hid behind a rock with great difficulty.

Before he could even catch his breath, the dense blood-red spikes directly shattered the large rock behind him!

F*ck!

That b*st*rd Old Black!

Fang Heng estimated that it was about time. The five minutes they had agreed on were almost over.

Teleportation!

With a flash of his body, Fang Heng approached the other side of the cave quickly. He could still hold on for a while. If he couldn’t hold on, he would have to force his way into the game.

“Ha, I can still continue…”

Zhao Tai and Fang Heng played a game of cat and mouse for a while, and he was already a little irritated.

The other party had a lot of tricks up his sleeve, and if this continued, there might be an accident.

He was not playing anymore! He had to get rid of him!

Zhao Tai pulled out his burning blood long sword and aimed it in Fang Heng’s direction again, wanting to slash forward.

Eh?

Zhao Tai suddenly sensed something. He stopped casting the blood curse and turned his head to look back, his eyes filled with surprise.

“Boom!!”

In the next moment, a violent blood-red aura suddenly erupted in the cave!

Fang Heng, who was running for his life, also felt his heart skip a beat. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the lifeblood explosion.

It was the ‘sacrifice’?

“Boom! Boom Boom Boom!!!”

The violent smell of blood exploded from Rio’s body, and the burning lifeblood even directly dispersed a large area of thick fog around Rio!

Everyone in the cave felt the sudden explosion of lifeblood.

“F*ck, the sacrifice is out of control.”

Maica couldn’t see clearly, but he saw the red and violent blood mist in the thick fog. He knew something was wrong and cursed softly.

Rio, who was enveloped by the burning lifeblood, stood up shakily.

The blood-colored aura on his body continued to rise, and the Vampire King’s heart, which was exposed on his chest, was beating rapidly.

Rio’s head was lowered, and he still looked a little dazed.

Zhao Tai looked at Rio with a serious expression.

The state of the ‘sacrifice’ that was possessed by the Vampire King was very unstable, so after the ‘sacrifice’ was completed, it was necessary for him to be transported to the Land of Origin as soon as possible to complete the final step of the sacrificial ritual.

In order to maintain the stability of the sacrifice as much as possible, the vampires had selected a number of candidates from their race in advance.

In theory, these selected sacrifices were very stable. Even if he was left for 20 hours, he would not lose control.

So it was that person who did it!

How did he do it?

Zhao Tai looked into the darkness again and frowned.

Oh no! He couldn’t sense him.

At the moment when the blood aura exploded, his attention had been drawn to Rio, who had also dodged and disappeared with great agility. He had completely lost track of the enemy’s aura.

He turned around again.

Rio was walking towards the rock wall in front of him. He raised his right hand and threw a punch at the front of the cave.

“Thump!!!”

The rock wall made a loud noise, and the entire cave trembled.

“Boom!”

The rock wall shattered with a loud bang, and a hole was blasted out by the fist.

Rio’s use of power was extremely brutal and violent. He was almost using all his strength to release his aura indiscriminately!

He kept swinging his fists at the rock wall! He had forcefully opened up a passage in the rock wall!

D*mn it!

If he continued to destroy the cave, the entire cave was at risk of collapsing!

They had to control the sacrifice!

Zhao Tai was helpless. He couldn’t care about Fang Heng anymore. He put his hands together and controlled the blood curse to attack Rio, trying to control him temporarily.

Several blood-colored balls that were entrenched around him were blasted toward Rio.

“Bang! Bang, Bang!!”

The ball hit Rio’s back.

Rio, who was constantly bombarding the rock wall, couldn’t help but sway. He turned around, but he could not see the scene in the fog.

“Bang! Bang Bang!”

One after another, blood curses emerged from the mist and hit him, forcing him to retreat and pushing him to the wall.

Rio’s skin and flesh were torn open by the blood explosion, and blood kept flowing down his body.

“Roar!!!”

Rio let out a roar towards the sky, and the blood-red aura that enveloped his body exploded once again!

The blood-red balls that were coming at him exploded in mid-air!

Rio slowly raised his head and looked at Zhao Tai in the air.

The aura was locked on!

“Hu!”

Shrouded in the blood-red aura, Rio swooped down toward Duke Zhao Tai.

At the side, Fang Heng heaved a sigh of relief and quickly slipped away.

He quickly walked to Old Black and asked, “What’s the situation? What’s with the sacrifice?”

In just a short while, the injuries that Fang Heng had sustained during the battle with Duke Zhao Tai had completely healed. He was full of energy and didn’t look like he had just been attacked by the Duke of the vampires.

Old Black looked at Fang Heng with envy and replied in a low voice, “Nothing much. I just did something to the sacrifice and his medicine.”

“What is the role of the sacrifice?” Fang Heng continued to ask.

“After the second stage of unsealing the body remains of the Vampire King, it cannot directly pass through the teleportation passage. It needs a medium to carry it, and this medium is the sacrifice.”

“The vampires’ secret medicine can temporarily make the sacrifice who inherited the Vampire King’s power unconscious,” Old Black explained. “It’ll be easier for us to transport him back to the Land of Origin.”

Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing that.

He suddenly looked up at the berserk Rio and suddenly realized something.

“The power of the King’s body remains can be directly inherited by the sacrifice?”

“Yes, that’s true,” Old Black nodded. “Inheriting the power of the King’s body can greatly strengthen the abilities of the vampires in a very short time. But the negative effects are also very obvious.”

“The first is power. If one’s power is too weak, one will not be able to withstand the power of the King’s body remains and explode to death. The second is the mind. Even if the body can withstand it, it will be affected by the will of the Vampire King and be led to the Land of Origin. Of course, the higher-tier vampires can last longer.”

Old Black then shifted his gaze to Rio and continued, “It’s not possible for him. He’s completely lost his self-awareness and is completely affected by the King’s will. He’s constantly searching for the Land of Origin and will destroy anything that stands in his way.”

Fang Heng looked at the vampires who were fighting with Zhao Tai not far away. He was quite envious.

The power of the King.

Good stuff!

After being strengthened by the body remains of the Vampire King, the abilities of the high-tier vampires were greatly enhanced. They could even fight with Duke Zhao Tai for a while without being at a disadvantage.
