Chapter 396: The Headless Blood Ghouls

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

From the moment the Scorpion warrior stepped onto the guillotine to the moment his bones were swept into the abyss, it only took him one or two breaths. The speed was astonishing.

This was a Scorpion warrior who had stepped into the transcendence realm and even reached Silver Transcendent. However, he did not even last two breaths before he was chopped off. His flesh and blood turned into white bones and his corpse was thrown into the abyss.

Many people did not even have the time to react before it was over.

“Clink clink clink…”

Suddenly, the blood-colored chains moved again. They suddenly swept to the countless people as though they were traveling through space.

“Oh no! Dodge quickly!”

“There’s something strange about this chain. Don’t be entangled by it!”

“This guillotine is killing people since it’s stained with blood. I’m afraid that everyone here is within the attack range!”

“Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!”

“Oh no! I’m entangled! Someone save me!”

In fact, there was no need for anyone to remind them. After everyone sensed that something was wrong, they quickly dodged.

However, there were always those who reacted slowly and were unfortunately entangled. Then, they were dragged toward the guillotine by the chains.

There were humans and scorpions among them, and scorpions occupied most of them.

Some people saw their good friends or family members being dragged away by the chains, so they were not willing to give up. One after another, they tried to rescue them and kept hacking at the blood-colored chains.

However, when the blades landed on the chains, they did not even leave a mark. They even felt like they were slipping away without any strength.

Some people with divine weapons only marked chains with sparks. After leaving a slight mark, they would be quickly repaired by the blood-colored light.

Suddenly, Li Xiang saw a black figure being entangled by the chains.

This person was the human machete man who had wounded the leader of the Scorpion race with one strike.

How could such an elite human being be killed by a strange blade?

Raising his hand and pointing, a bright and holy flame turned into a line of fire and instantly landed on the scarlet chain.

When the flame and the blood-colored light on the chain came into contact, it was as if lightning had struck the earth, instantly emitting intense flames.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle…

It was as if something was being burned. The red light on the chain instantly evaporated, and the chain was directly melted.

After the black-clothed machete man landed on the ground, he quickly shook off the chain on his body and retreated to Li Xiang’s side.

“Thanks, brother for saving me. Fu Mingxue will remember this in my heart!”

“So it’s Brother Fu. There’s no need to be so polite. I’m Li Xiang. You can just address me as you like!”

How could Fu Mingxue casually address him? He replied, “Brother Li!”

Li Xiang nodded and did not say anything to Fu Mingxue. Instead, his gaze fell on the guillotine.

At this moment, more than a hundred figures had already been dragged onto the guillotine by the blood-colored chains.

Most of them were Scorpion warriors because they had the most people and were the closest to the guillotine.

About a dozen of them were human experts.

Li Xiang wanted to save them, but he couldn’t do anything after a short delay just now.

What followed was an “Execution”!

Once these people were bound by the chains, they couldn’t struggle at all. As soon as they reached the guillotine, they were lined up neatly like prisoners waiting to be executed, kneeling in a humiliating manner.

Then, the Ghost Head Blade split into hundreds of blade lights and flew down.

“Poosh!”

Hundreds of sounds fused into one.

In an instant, the blood light soared into the sky, and the heads rolled.

Then, the heads were swallowed. The flesh and blood were also swallowed. Only the bones were swept into the abyss.

At the same time, the blood on the guillotine became even more intense.

“This guillotine is too strange. It seems like as long as you get close, you’ll be killed. At the same time, the more people it kills and the more flesh and blood it swallows, the stronger it’ll be,” said Ye Qiu with his eyes full of fear.

Fu Mingxue seemed to have thought of something. He couldn’t help but touch his neck and a trace of fear in his eyes.

Everyone was retreating. They kept retreating, trying their best to stay as far away from the guillotine as possible.

This thing was too strange and too evil.

Once they were bound by the chains, there was no way to resist. They could only wait for their heads to be cut off and die completely.

Perhaps some people weren’t afraid of death, but no one was willing to die like this.

Just when everyone thought that they could avoid being bound by the chains by staying far away from the guillotine, terrifying blood-colored figures suddenly emerged from the guillotine.

“What the h*ll are these things?”

“They don’t seem to have heads!”

“Oh no! These seem to be malicious ghosts suppressed in the guillotine. They don’t have heads, and their resentful and murderous auras soar into the sky. Run!”

Many human transcendents saw this scene and their expressions changed. They turned around and ran.

These blood-colored figures weren’t common baleful ghosts. They were terrifying existences that had been nurtured by endless resentful, blood, and baleful aura for unknown years. Every one of them was at the mythical grade. There were even terrifying existences at the divine grade within.

Ye Qiu’s expression also changed greatly. He quickly said, “These are the Headless Blood Ghouls, one of the most terrifying ghosts in the legends. Their bodies can switch between the real and the virtual, and it’s almost immune to physical attacks. Once one’s injured by the blood ghouls, all the blood in one’s body can be devoured even if it’s just a small cut. They’re extremely difficult to kill. Their speed is extremely fast, and their attack is strange and unpredictable. It’s almost unsolvable!”

These malicious ghosts were incomparably crazy. They practically had no intelligence. They were filled with greed for the flesh and blood of living beings. They roared as they leaped down from the guillotine.

Their hands transformed into terrifying, savage claws that were incomparably sharp.

Some of them even had weapons in their hands, and their movements were swift and agile.

The moment they appeared, they were attracted by the dense aura of life nearby. They roared as they transformed into streaks of bloody shadows that pounced out.

A few of them rushed toward the humans, while the majority of them rushed toward the Scorpion warriors.

“Ah…”

A Scorpion warrior was covered in blood. His body was shriveling at a speed visible to the naked eye. He let out a shrill scream and kept scratching and struggling on his body. However, it was useless. He turned into a dried corpse in just two or three breaths.

There was more than one such horrifying scene on the platform.

In just a few breaths, more than a dozen Scorpion warriors had their blood essence devoured and turned into dried corpses.

It was the same on the human side, except that there were fewer of them.

The scene of all the blood in one’s body being devoured and turning into a dried corpse in an instant was too horrifying.

Everyone was resisting, but the blood ghouls were too fast. They couldn’t dodge even if they wanted to. As long as they were slightly careless and were slightly injured, a portion of their blood would be devoured immediately. Their movements would be affected, and their bodies would be weakened. In the next instant, the blood ghouls would pounce on them and turn them into dried corpses before they could react.

Some people could barely fight these blood ghouls. However, every time they injured or slashed these blood ghouls, they would completely recover in a breath’s time. They even turned into phantoms. Hence, the attacks were ineffective.

If they were careless, they would be wounded by the blood ghouls and turn into dried corpses.
