What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?

Because I needed to devote a significant portion of my mental energy to controlling the four throwing knives in the distance to suppress Lan Haiping, I was unable to fully concentrate on dealing with the masked man's attack.

Coupled with his incredibly powerful and suppressive aura and his unpredictable and ever-changing moves, I was almost completely suppressed in just half a minute of fighting.

He could only barely parry with the powerful reaction force brought by the Mountain-Shaking Force and the protection of the jade-colored baleful aura.

By this time, my black casual clothes had been slashed in several places by his boning dagger.

Although it didn't cause any fundamental damage, it still looked rather disheveled.

"Your malevolent energy is pure, but you are distracted."

The masked man's cold voice came from behind the bronze mask, carrying a hint of condescending mockery.

He suddenly thrust the short blade upwards, forcing me to tilt my head back to dodge.

Just as I was locked in a fierce battle with the masked man, the situation on the steps also changed.

Lan Haiping was, after all, a veteran Dan realm cultivator.

Although he was initially caught off guard by my multitasking with my Qi-controlling flying knives, he quickly regained his composure.

Seeing that the masked man had me under control, a fierce glint flashed across his fat face.

"You little bastard, die!"

Lan Haiping roared and bit his fingertips, smearing his bright red blood on his forehead.

As he moved, the insect shield in front of him, composed of countless black flying insects, seemed to be injected with some kind of violent energy, and its size instantly expanded.

Then, with a muffled bang, it exploded!

A powerful shockwave, carrying countless tiny, dead poisonous insects, swept outwards.

The four scalpels I was controlling finally lost their aim under the reckless impact of the self-destruction.

The sound of "clanging" rang out, and four willow-leaf knives were suddenly knocked away and scattered all over the courtyard.

After breaking my sword formation, the resentment in Lan Haiping's eyes became extremely intense.

At this moment, his hands quickly formed hand seals again.

As the hand seals continued to form, an even denser black miasma began to rapidly condense in front of him.

He was preparing to coordinate with the masked man to form a deadly encirclement of me!

I know this absolutely cannot continue.

Once Blue Ocean recovers and forms a pincer attack with the masked man, the advantage I painstakingly built up will vanish.

It could even lead to a real death.

"Looks like we have no choice but to give it a shot."

My eyes narrowed, and the jade-colored baleful energy within my body stopped its normal circulation at that moment.

The next second, I activated the Demon Cloak without hesitation!

"boom!"

An extremely violent power erupted from the depths of my dantian in an instant.

At this moment, the malevolent energy, like boiling magma, forcefully poured into every part of my body.

The jade-colored baleful aura on my body suddenly expanded outward by several inches, forming a layer of jade-colored armor that looked almost tangible.

As my power surged, countless noisy, greedy, and tyrannical whispers of desire began to echo wildly in my mind.

They're trying to take my sanity away.

But the cool sensation between my eyebrows also intensified.

It fiercely protected my mental clarity, forcibly suppressing those crazy thoughts.

The instant I activated my protective aura, the masked man's boning blade, carrying an extremely cold and malevolent energy, pierced straight towards my heart.

Faced with this fatal blow, I did not choose to dodge or block as I had done before.

I twisted my body sharply, narrowly avoiding the vital spot in my heart, and deliberately faced the dark red dagger with my left shoulder.

My left arm has been completely modified through a self-sewage technique.

Its toughness far exceeds that of other parts of the body.

"Pfft!"

The boning dagger pierced my clothes easily and embedded itself in the muscle of my left shoulder.

Intense pain instantly spread throughout my body. The barbs on the short blade bit into my flesh, and a sinister aura tried to invade my meridians through the wound.

But the jade-colored malevolent energy within me immediately pounced on it like a shark smelling blood, relentlessly strangling and killing that sinister malevolent energy.

The masked man clearly hadn't expected me to use such a self-destructive method to withstand his blow; a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes behind the mask.

What I want is his momentary shock and the immense impact of his strike!

"I'll lend you some strength."

I grinned at the masked man.

Immediately afterward, I endured the excruciating pain in my left shoulder and unleashed my full power, combining it with the forward momentum of the masked man's thrust at me.

At that moment, I was suddenly sent flying backward at a terrifying speed, almost twice as fast as before.

He charged straight at Lan Haiping on the steps!

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

Lan Haiping had just condensed that foul-smelling black miasma, and was preparing to push it towards me.

But when he looked up suddenly, he was horrified to find that I had appeared in front of him in an instant, covering a distance of more than ten meters as if by ghost.

"You're insane!"

Lan Haiping was terrified and instinctively hurled the poisonous miasma in his hand at me.

The poisonous miasma, strong enough to corrode steel, completely enveloped my entire body.

However, in the face of the malevolent energy of the shrouded state, this level of poison could not harm me in the slightest.

Without even blinking, I smashed through the poisonous miasma and rushed to Lan Haiping's side.

During the charge, my free left hand quietly reached for the black bone needle that was placed close to my body.

Seeing that the poisonous miasma was ineffective, Lan Haiping panicked and tried to retreat to create distance.

But how could I possibly give him that chance?

I swung the willow-leaf knife in my right hand, and it transformed into a silver streak, sealing off all his escape routes.

Just as Lan Haiping was forced to raise his arms, attempting to use his protective qi to withstand my attack.

I snapped my fingers on my left hand.

"call out--"

A barely perceptible whooshing sound rang out in the night.

Under the full force of the Qi control, the black bone needle transformed into a black lightning bolt that was impossible to detect with the naked eye.

It silently bypassed the light of my willow-leaf blade and ignored the protective aura that Lan Haiping had hastily gathered.

"puff!"

A very faint piercing sound rang out.

The black bone needle, imbued with violent blood energy, pierced through Lan Haiping's brow and emerged from the back of his head, leaving a trail of blood.

Lan Haiping's obese body suddenly froze.

His raised hands fell limply to the ground, and his life force quickly dissipated.

All that remained in my eyes was endless bewilderment and disbelief.

He seemed to die without ever seeing what had taken his life.

"Bang."

Lan Haiping's body fell straight backward, rolled down the steps, and finally came to rest at my feet.
