The Southern Ridge plains roared with blood and fire, the cries of battle shaking the sky.
Under countless eyes, two figures clashed head-on.
On one side stood the Residual Blood Maniac, Xu Zhu—drenched in blood, staff in hand, back straight as a mountain peak.
On the other, the Guildmaster of Overlord Spear Alliance, Leng Tian—black armor, blood spear, his aura towering like a mountain, eyes cold as iron.
——
Leng Tian sneered low: "Do you think relying on residual blood allows you to contend with me? Absurd!"
Before the words had faded, his blood spear suddenly extended three zhang, transforming into a blood-colored dragon, thundering straight for Xu Zhu!
The air ruptured, the earth split apart.
This strike could pierce through everything!
Xu Zhu unleashed Residual Edge in full!
Death trajectories flooded the sky, a single thread of survival so thin it was like a hair.
[Residual Edge Sync Rate: 99%]
[Warning: Extremity state about to trigger]
The world in his eyes froze utterly.
Countless trajectories were swallowed in crimson, his pupils blood-red, breath ragged, on the verge of collapse.
"Residual Blood never dies…"
He roared low, staff sweeping sideways, striking precisely at the survival line!
Boom!!!
Blood spear and staff clashed head-on, shockwaves blasting outward, hurling hundreds aside.
——
The spectator channel exploded:
[Is this still human?!]
[Residual Blood Maniac took the Guildmaster's ultimate head-on!]
[Residual Blood about to hit extremity aaahhh!]
——
Leng Tian roared, spear-shadows turning into a torrential storm, dozens of strikes raining down!
Xu Zhu's Residual Edge burned, his body weaving ghostlike, every step grazing death lines.
His staff struck again and again, blood and sparks exploding together.
[Residual Edge Sync Rate: 99.8%]
[Danger: Irreversible mental fracture]
The whispers in his ears became a deafening roar:
"Kill… master of the storm… residual blood is fate…"
Xu Zhu's eyes lost all focus, body trembling on the edge of extremity.
——
"Xu Zhu!"
Ling Xue roared, slashing enemies madly before her, eyes locked onto him.
"You are not the Residual Blood Maniac! You are Xu Zhu! Come back!!"
Fatty Third bawled, grappling a heavy-armored enemy to the ground: "Big bro! Fatty's still waiting for your wedding banquet! You can't die yet!!"
Their voices cut through the crimson abyss like blades.
——
Xu Zhu's pupils suddenly contracted.
The staff gathered his entire strength, smashing downward with all might!
Boom!!!
The blood spear was forced down, Leng Tian staggering for the first time, eyes flashing in shock!
"Impossible?!"
[System Prompt]:
Residual Edge Extremity—temporary activation.
Power surge: +300%.
Side effect: Mental damage + permanent sequelae risk.
——
Xu Zhu growled, blood flooding from mouth and nose, yet his voice was iron:
"One drop of residual blood… is enough to kill you!"
The staff crashed down, shockwaves exploding, Leng Tian blasted back several zhang, black armor shattered, blood spurting from his mouth!
The field fell silent.
The spectator channel went insane:
[The Overlord Guildmaster was forced back!]
[Residual Blood Maniac extremity eruption!]
[Residual Blood never dies!!]
——
Xu Zhu's chest heaved violently, body swaying, on the verge of collapse.
[Residual Edge Sync Rate: 100% → Receding to 90%]
[Warning: Mental fracture stabilized, injuries severe]
Ling Xue rushed to support him, eyes cold as a blade.
"Xu Zhu, you won this clash… but at a great cost."
Xu Zhu's throat choked with blood, voice hoarse: "I… haven't died yet."
Leng Tian wiped the blood from his mouth, for the first time revealing solemnity and killing intent.
"Very well… Residual Blood Maniac, you are worthy… to be my prey."
The storming night—
The blood road rupture had only just begun.
