Chapter 123 Devouring the Vicious Dog
The sword in his hand was as hot as the sun, and with unparalleled power, it easily tore through the indestructible scales of the two-headed hellhound and embedded deeply into its body.
The roar of the two-headed beast was like thunder, with rolling sound waves that shook people's hearts.
At the same time, its huge body was trembling slightly, revealing unprecedented pain.
Shangguan Jiannan tightly grasped the hilt of the sword with one hand and suddenly loosened his other hand. The spiritual energy gathered in his palm suddenly slapped the sword.
"Swish!" With a subtle but crisp sound, the long sword was pushed deeper under the huge force, causing the two-headed hellhound to let out an even more shrill roar, which shook the sky and echoed endlessly.
However, Shangguan Jiannan was as solid as a rock and was not moved at all.
In the underground space, the screams of the two-headed hellhound echoed one after another.
Shangguan Jiannan's expression became more and more solemn, as if he could feel the anger and despair coming from the abyss.
The anger of the two-headed hellhound turned into a raging flame, raging like a fire snake, dyeing the surrounding space red.
However, Shangguan Jiannan seemed to be standing aside, his eyes were firm, his hands tightly grasped the sword, and he did not move at all.
At this moment, Shangguan Jiannan felt a surge of enlightenment in his heart.
He realized that the sword in his hand might be the key to suppressing the two-headed hellhound.
As the sword penetrated deeper, the huge body of the two-headed hellhound seemed to be restrained and its whole body twitched, as if it was restrained by an invisible force.
At this moment, the Netherworld Jade Pendant suddenly emitted an eerie red light that quickly spread out, first gathering in front of Shangguan Jiannan's chest, and then flowing to his palm like a blood-colored river.
The red light was somewhat warm, as if it contained the pulse of life.
Shangguan Jiannan was astonished to see the red light move along his arm, climb up the hilt of the sword, and then cover the entire sword.
The enchanting red light attached to the sword like blood, adding a bit of mystery and majesty to it.
Immediately afterwards, the red light did not dissipate. Instead, it swept out madly with the long sword as the medium, heading straight for the huge body of the two-headed hellhound.
Wherever the red light passed, the two-headed hellhound's body began to undergo subtle changes, as if it was eroded and restrained by an invisible force.
Shangguan Jiannan widened his eyes, shocked at the scene.
He realized that there seemed to be some mysterious connection and resonance between this Netherworld Jade Pendant and the sword.
It was this power that allowed him to engage in a thrilling battle with the two-headed hellhound in this dangerous underground space.
Shangguan Jiannan's gaze was fixed on the scene before him, his breathing was heavy and rapid, his face slightly distorted with shock.
"What kind of scene is this?" He muttered to himself, with doubts in his mind, but he could only stare blankly at everything in front of him.
He slowly turned his head and his eyes fell on his left shoulder, where the original tattoo had now been completely swallowed up by a blazing red light.
The red light was like a gushing spring, surging and surging. It not only flowed through his arms, but also followed the trajectory of the sword, rapidly covering the body of the two-headed hellhound.
"Roar, roar, roar!" The roars of the two-headed hellhound came one after another, more deafening than before, as if thunder exploding in the ears, buzzing, and endless.
Shangguan Jiannan's ears were filled with this shrill roar, and his eyes were stained with a strange blood red, making him look particularly terrifying.
The huge body of the two-headed hellhound twisted violently, trying to break free from the sudden restraints.
However, the sword had penetrated deeply into his body, firmly fixed there like an iron nail, not moving at all.
Shangguan Jiannan gripped the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands and concentrated his strength. No matter how the two-headed hellhound struggled and roared, it could not be shaken at all.
At this moment, behind Shangguan Jiannan, it seemed as if countless blood-red streams converged into a river, surging towards the two-headed hellhound.
These red lights were like thousands of chains, tightly wrapped around the body of the two-headed hellhound.
As the red light penetrated, the originally blazing flame gradually went out, revealing the deep red background underneath.
The two-headed hellhound let out painful howls, which were filled with despair and helplessness.
It can only vent the physical pain and torture through this earth-shaking scream.
The "Night Shadowless Heart Technique" started to work automatically at this time, and dark red silk threads emerged from Shangguan Jiannan's chest. These silk threads, condensed from the dark shadow and mysterious Yin spiritual energy, quickly bound the two-headed hellhound tightly.
Time passed quietly, and an hour later, the blood-red light that had swept everything finally began to weaken.
Shangguan Jiannan noticed that the red light was no longer madly absorbing his spiritual energy, and this process seemed to have come to a temporary halt.
However, his heart was filled with a sense of pain.
Shangguan Jiannan witnessed this appalling consumption rate, his face twisted involuntarily, and an indescribable pain surged in his heart.
Immediately afterwards, a jaw-dropping scene took place - the originally raging red light, like a dragnet, suddenly covered the sky and the earth, completely enveloping the huge body of the two-headed hellhound.
Under the attack of this red light, the raging flames on its body were extinguished one by one, and its huge body trembled violently, as if it was experiencing unprecedented pain and struggle.
The red light suddenly became dazzling, so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it. Shangguan Jiannan was so shocked that he stood there in a daze, his eyes fixed on this incredible scene.
As the red light erupted, everything around seemed to be swallowed up by this power. The mountain-like body of the two-headed hellhound was now completely submerged in the red light, leaving no trace.
At the same time, the sword in Shangguan Jiannan's hand also sensed the fluctuation of this power and began to tremble slightly, as if resonating with some unknown existence.
The red light became increasingly intense, almost piercing through one's soul, and in Shangguan Jiannan's eyes, there was nothing but shock.
However, at this shocking moment, the red light suddenly began its journey of contraction, as if all the previous expansion was just for the purpose of cohesion at this moment.
The red light that filled the sky quickly shrank in Shangguan Jiannan's incredulous eyes, and finally gathered into a powerful force, rushing straight towards the sword in his hand.
Not only that, even the Netherworld Jade Pendant worn on Shangguan Jiannan's chest seemed to be attracted by this power, and the red light on it also poured into the sword frantically.
The whole process was as fast as lightning, and within only ten breaths, the two-headed hellhound that once stood in front of him like a hill completely disappeared without a trace along with a blood-red light.
At this moment, the long sword was tightly wrapped in red light, emitting a heart-pounding light. From time to time, dazzling rays of light flashed across the sword, and its power was so strong that it was frightening.
There was an empty space ahead, and the huge body of the two-headed hellhound seemed to have never existed. Only a dead silence and Shangguan Jiannan's dull and unbelievable eyes were left.
Spiritual energy surged throughout his body, his body was stiff, and his heart was filled with indescribable shock and confusion.
The disappearance of the two-headed hellhound was both a huge mystery and an unacceptable reality for him.
However, in this endless astonishment, he also vaguely felt the awakening and transformation of a certain power... and at the same time, he was attracted by an inexplicable surging power deep in the hall.
"Bang, bang, bang!" The dull roar, like an ancient war drum, echoed in the empty hall, and every sound shook people's minds.
