Chapter 431 Mermaid Appearance, Pawns and Sacrifices
Thinking of the possibility of parasitic races, Chu Lengyu slowed her pace, but then resumed her normal steps.
The elder of the Hundred Swords Pavilion was extremely anxious, but dared not show it.
Upon hearing this shocking news, he rushed to find his disciple, hoping to escape the perilous Jingu Island as soon as possible.
Thanks to Master Qingsong's good information and early warning, otherwise he would have been completely unaware, and he would have been kept in the dark when the fighting broke out.
The demons are truly demons who crawled out of hell; their cruelty and viciousness far exceed imagination.
Compared to those evil cultivators who skin and drink blood and command hundreds of ghosts, the demon race is an even more terrifying existence.
The elder had already devised an escape route in his mind, hoping only to preserve his life in this chaotic world.
However, just when he thought he was about to escape this place of disaster, Chu Lengyu did not come to him as he wished. Instead, she flashed and leaped onto the arena.
"Elder, we can't leave now." Chu Lengyu's voice was calm and firm as it reached the elder's ears.
The elder of the Hundred Swords Pavilion was stunned upon hearing this, and a deep look of bitterness instantly appeared on his weathered face.
He understood perfectly well that from the moment he learned the news, he was already trapped with no way to escape.
However, even knowing this in his heart, how could he be willing to easily entrust his life to others, especially the Thousand Mist Sect, which made him wary?
Chu Lengyu slowly stopped and stood on one side of the arena. Her gaze pierced through the noise and landed on the merman boy opposite her.
The boy's name was Yu You. He was fair-skinned and slender, with a pair of extremely cold-blooded blue eyes, as if he were staring at a prey.
Below the stage, everyone felt a surge of inexplicable excitement and burst into laughter.
"This merman looks so frail, this 10,000 spirit stones is practically free."
"Go on, you little devil, teach her a lesson!"
"With the siren on land, its strength is halved. I think he's doomed to lose."
From the moment Yu You stepped onto the arena, he became the focus of everyone's attention.
Although everyone knows that this branch of the Merfolk has long since submitted to the Thousand Mist Sect and become its vassal race.
But in the eyes of these cultivators, a demon is a demon, and no matter how they try to tame it, they cannot erase the demonic nature that they were born with.
Although the merfolk and humans have lived in peace for many years and have offered each other treasures every year, there are still many sea monsters who continue to fight to the death with the cultivators.
Below the arena, the crowd was buzzing with discussion about the young merman.
The Merfolk have always been mysterious and rarely appear in public. However, Yu You not only appeared this time, but also stepped onto the arena to fight against human cultivators. This was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.
Some people pointed and commented on his appearance, while others were filled with curiosity about his strength, trying to glean an extraordinary power from his frail appearance.
Yu You has fair skin and a slender build, which is far removed from the image of the fierce and powerful merman in the legends.
However, just as the referee loudly announced the start of the competition, a sudden change occurred.
His body rapidly expanded, his muscles bulging like coiled dragons, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed from a fair-skinned, thin boy into a tall and robust warrior.
A layer of fine scales covered his body, as if he were wearing an indestructible fish scale armor.
His eyes also underwent a transformation at this moment, turning into vertical pupils that gleamed with a chilling light that sent shivers down one's spine.
At this moment, Yu You underwent a complete transformation, evolving from an ordinary boy into a true merman warrior, exuding demonic aura.
The audience was taken aback, and immediately focused their attention even more intently.
The same applies to the members of the Hundred Swords Pavilion.
Chu Lengyu frowned slightly. She could clearly feel a surging fighting spirit emanating from Yu You.
This mermaid boy's fighting style was completely different from any of her previous opponents.
His movements were swift and savage.
There was no unnecessary embellishment, and no complicated or flashy moves.
Every punch he throws is a burst of the most basic and primal power, full of wildness.
His fist, like a towering mountain, carried unparalleled power and slammed directly into Chu Lengyu's body.
The scene was extremely cruel.
boom--!
The ring was smashed, leaving a large crater.
Chu Lengyu dodged the powerful blow beforehand.
Yu You, like a raging beast, kept swinging his fists, trying to defeat his opponent and prove himself.
The crowd below the arena was stunned.
This battle is clearly much more intense than the previous ones.
The battles between cultivators are skillful but lack fierceness; how can they compare to the sea monsters personally taking the stage!
Every attack and every dodge filled them with dread and excitement.
With her extremely agile movements, Chu Lengyu skillfully dodged Yu You's attacks, which were like a storm.
However, Yu You's fighting style goes far beyond that.
He suddenly opened his mouth, revealing his sharp, blade-like teeth, and lunged to bite at Chu Lengyu's neck.
This scene shocked everyone present.
Such a ferocious and barbaric fighting style could only be used by sirens.
After all, this is a fighting arena, not a life-or-death struggle. With thousands of people watching, the cultivators who go on stage won't use such crude attacks.
When everyone saw Yu You's demonized appearance, this method of attack became reasonable.
Chu Lengyu dodged his fatal bite with a swift movement, becoming secretly on guard.
Undeniably, the merman on the other side was quite powerful, and she needed to carefully consider the strength she could reveal.
But as the battle progressed, Chu Lengyu gradually adapted to Yu You's fighting rhythm.
Although Yu You's strength and speed were exceptionally impressive, his attack patterns were relatively simple and lacked variety. She immediately decided to take advantage of this to find an opportunity to counterattack.
She skillfully guided Yu You's attack, deliberately revealing some flaws to lure him into attacking in the direction she had set.
He was like a wild beast that had been provoked, completely caught in Chu Lengyu's trap, unaware that danger was already creeping in.
Finally, after one exchange, Chu Lengyu found an opportunity to counterattack.
She leaped up like lightning, rushing towards Yu You. Her long sword gleamed coldly, aimed directly at his vital points. Her sword was unstoppable, and no one could withstand it.
Although Yu You reacted quickly, he still couldn't completely avoid Chu Lengyu's lightning-fast attack.
The sword tip sliced through, leaving a deep mark on the scales.
The moment the stab struck, a stream of blood gushed out, and a low cry of pain echoed across the arena.
Chu Lengyu's eyes were resolute as she swung her longsword once more.
The sword light intertwined, like an impenetrable silver net, instantly covering the entire arena space, with each movement of the sword tip accompanied by a clashing sound.
Warm blood spurted out, falling like a drizzle and staining the arena red.
Yu You was covered in wounds, with crisscrossing cuts that completely transformed his once imposing figure into a wretched mess, as if he had just struggled out of a sea of blood.
His robes had already been torn into countless strips by the fierce sword energy, hanging messily on his body, adding to his desolate appearance. Where was the slightest bit of his former imposing manner now?
These tattered pieces of cloth are just like his shattered faith at this moment.
Faced with Chu Lengyu's fierce offensive, Yu You felt fear rising in her heart.
His first thought was to escape, to escape that eerie, deadly sword, to get as far away as possible.
