From Sword to Slaughter: Evolution

"No!!!"

The Four-Star Demon God spat out a mouthful of blood.

With the final burst of its energy shield, it was completely defenseless in that instant!

Its body was immediately sliced into countless pieces by Liu Yi.

From the fragments of its body, a blue light suddenly emerged.

This orb of light swiftly flew toward the distance.

A primordial spirit!

It was the Four-Star Demon God's primordial spirit!

Clearly, it was trying to escape.

As long as its primordial spirit remained intact, the demon could survive, even after its body was destroyed.

Liu Yi understood this well.

Without hesitation, Liu Yi surged forward, pursuing the escaping primordial spirit.

His speed was incredible, and within moments, he was right in front of the Four-Star Demon God's primordial spirit.

With a swift strike from his sword, he slashed down!

Boom—

The primordial spirit was instantly split in half!

[Absorbed Four-Star Demon God's Blood Essence, Gained 4,000 Points]

...

At that moment, a massive amount of energy flowed into Liu Yi's Ye Fan Sword.

Along with a large quantity of dark blood, all of this energy was absorbed into the sword.

The powerful energy and purified blood essence began to feedback into Liu Yi's body!

Such immense power!

Liu Yi felt the overwhelming energy flooding into his body and let out a sinister laugh.

But suddenly, he sensed something—his pupils contracted slightly.

From all directions, more demons surged toward him!

These demons bared their fangs and claws, appearing incredibly terrifying and powerful.

However, seeing this, Liu Yi merely laughed coldly.

With a single horizontal sweep of his sword,

a wave of powerful sword energy erupted.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

The terrifying sword energy sliced through the approaching demons, cutting them all in half!

...

"Ninth-stage demons dare to attack me? They're simply courting death!"

Liu Yi laughed maniacally.

These ninth-stage demons were nothing more than gifts to him.

His current strength was far beyond what these demons could contend with!

Yet the demons continued to pour in, as if unafraid of death, charging at Liu Yi relentlessly.

"Since you dare to come at me, I'll absorb all your power!"

Liu Yi roared as he swung the Ye Fan Sword in continuous arcs.

However, as the demons approached, their bodies began to swell.

Before the sword energy could reach them, they began to swell rapidly.

Then they exploded!

Boom, boom, boom—

A series of terrifying explosions echoed through the sky.

The force of the explosions impacted Liu Yi's body.

Moreover, as the creatures detonated, black blood splattered onto Liu Yi's body.

This black blood was highly toxic.

It corroded his clothing and began to eat away at his skin.

A sharp, burning pain spread through Liu Yi's entire body!

"Damn it!"

Liu Yi's rage intensified as he began to lose control.

He kept swinging his sword furiously.

But each time a demon was struck by his blade, its body exploded instantly.

Amid the continuous explosions, the black blood splattered all over him, corroding his skin further.

His body was so damaged that even his bones were beginning to show through the wounds!

"Ah!!!"

Liu Yi was now on the brink of madness.

He had never encountered anything like this before.

At this moment, he wanted to flee, to escape to another location.

But he found himself unable to move.

The demons kept surging toward him endlessly!

"Die!!!"

Suddenly, a loud roar erupted from behind Liu Yi.

His expression changed drastically as he instinctively turned to look behind him.

However, the poison from the black blood had slowed his reaction time.

Whoosh—

A flash of cold light streaked through the air, and Liu Yi's head was instantly severed!

"This sword is mine now!"

The figure who had delivered the killing blow grabbed the Ye Fan Sword.

At that moment, an influx of information surged into his mind:
