462 Life and Death

The spear was suspended in mid-air, and the Scarlet light was somewhat glaring. The almost solid smell of blood was nauseating, and everything in its path was reduced to nothing.

Gu Xi’s brows gradually furrowed and his expression became extremely serious.

Although the attack had not yet exploded, just the fluctuation of the aura alone was enough to make him feel uneasy. He even had the illusion that he was facing death!

“What a brutal and bloody spirit skill.”

A red glint flashed across Gu Xi’s eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

The smell of blood mixed in the air seemed to be able to bewitch people’s minds. If it was not for his strong heart and strong spiritual sense, if it was someone else standing here, it was likely that it would not take long for their mind to be in chaos!

“This attack is enough to take your life.”

Seeing that Gu Xi was not affected by the smell of blood, a trace of surprise flashed in the man’s eyes, but he quickly figured it out. After all, Gu Xi’s attainments in spirit arrays could be said to be superb, and people with strong spiritual sense would naturally not be easily affected by the smell of blood.

“Goodbye.” The man didn’t give Gu Xi any time as he slowly raised his hand and pointed his index finger at Gu Xi’s position.

“Blood spear.”

The man’s eyes were suddenly filled with blood as he spoke. He looked extremely strange and intimidating.

In the next moment, the blood-red spear that was emitting a dazzling red light suddenly began to tremble. It went from light to violent, but it did not move forward at all, as if it was trying to suppress the energy within it.

Or perhaps… It was accumulating power and waiting to attack!

The strange trembling lasted for three seconds. At the last moment, the blood-red spear stopped trembling. Not only that, but everything around it seemed to have stopped.

Whoosh-

An ear-piercing wind-breaking sound was heard. The blood-red spear turned into a red light with a long tail and swept out at an incomprehensible speed. Wherever it passed, it cut open a black crack in the void that lasted for a long time.

The extremely compressed blood and spiritual power in the spear overflowed from time to time, but it was this seemingly insignificant trace that made Gu Xi feel a great threat.

“Demonic race from the outer realm… Let me see what kind of strength you have.” The moment the spear moved, Gu Xi muttered to himself.

He suddenly stretched out his hands, and a thick spirit energy burst out without any reservation. Thousands of spirit patterns swarmed out like a nest of snakes, and in the blink of an eye, they had already disappeared into the surrounding void. Then, another huge array took shape in an instant!

In mid-air, the huge array was rotating at a uniform speed. The intricate spiritual patterns on its surface and the aura it emitted revealed its extraordinary power.

Earth-grade high-rank array, Spirit Binding Formation!

“Activate!”

With Gu Xi’s low shout, the array suddenly burst out with a bright light, and then a slender spiritual energy ribbon shot out from the array. There were more than ten thousand of them!

Although these spiritual energy ribbons looked thin and long, as if they were as fragile as willow branches. In fact, each of them was as tough as an earth-grade defensive spiritual tool, and there were more than ten thousand of them…

Under Gu Xi’s control, these ribbons seemed to have eyes as they shot out one after another. In the blink of an eye, they had already approached the blood-red spear and immediately swarmed up, wrapping the entire spear tightly.

A large amount of spiritual energy constantly gushed out from the silk, eroding the Blood Qi around the spear. The strong pulling force gradually slowed the speed of the spear.

Gu Xi did not move a single step the entire time. His eyes were fixed on the spear that was already in front of him, and her body was already tensed to the extreme, ready to dodge at any time.

Seeing that the long spear had been restrained by the Spirit Binding Formation, he could not help but let out a long sigh of relief.

“Do you really think it’s that easy to stop my attack?”

The man’s voice came slowly, and Gu Xi could not help but raise his vigilance again.

“Ridiculous.”

The man threw his head back and laughed. His pale hand grasped the spear in the air. At the same time, the spear, which had been restrained by the thousands of ribbons, began to tremble again. Scarlet blood continued to flow out of it, dying the ground red in an instant.

The next moment, a blood-red light pillar soared into the sky and almost instantly corroded the countless ribbons.

The next moment, the long spear turned into a long rainbow again, and it was actually several times faster than before. Even though Gu Xi kept mobilizing the remaining silk to bind the spear again, it did not go as he wished this time.

No matter how many spiritual energy ribbons tried to wrap around the surface of the spear again, they were all corroded into nothingness by the extremely rich Blood Qi around the spear before they could even get close to it. It could be said that the Spirit Binding Formation was completely useless at this moment.

“Damn it!” Gu Xi’s pupils shrank, and he could not help but curse.

Not only was there the smell of blood, but there was also a strong aura of death. It was as if the spear would pierce through one’s body if one came into contact with it.

There was no time to hesitate. Gu Xi’s toes touched the ground, and his body swept to the side. The spiritual power in her meridians surged wildly, causing his speed to climb to the peak again and again. However, to her surprise, the spear seemed to have locked onto him. No matter how he dodged, he could not escape its attack range.

“Check the flaws of this thing!”

Gu Xi screamed in his heart as he tried her best to escape.

[Ding! Blood Spear spirit skill detected!]

[A total of 69,751 flaws!]

[Analyzing!]

The System’s cold voice rang out, but Gu Xi’s expression was still ugly.

Although he believed that the System would be able to analyze the weakness of the Blood Spear, he did not have much time left.

With the Blood Spear’s current speed, not to mention whether the System could complete its extraction in time, even if it could, he definitely would not be able to make the right response in time!

“I can’t just die here in a daze…”

Gu Xi thought to herself, but then he felt a chill on his back and goosebumps all over his body.

The pungent smell of blood wafted over. Although he did not turn his head to look, he knew that the Blood Spear had arrived behind him without him knowing. Moreover, it was very close to him!

He could not help but swallow his saliva, and his voice was a little flustered.

“Is this it?”
