Bang!
The Samsara Blood Tear short sword exploded the moment it struck the energy wave.
Yu Daochen panted heavily, large beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. Although he had recovered, the pain in his cheek made him clench his teeth.
It seemed his cheekbone was broken! Yu Daochen endured the pain and gently touched his cheek.
The evil spirit swung its spinal bone and charged again. Yu Daochen’s left eye condensed ten more drops of Samsara Blood Tears, forming a short sword for defense.
Yu Daochen regretted his words, wishing he hadn't said, "Either you die or I die."
The evil spirit swung its spinal bone and fiercely slashed at Yu Daochen.
Yu Daochen could only grit his teeth and forcefully block. Every strike from the evil spirit was incredibly fierce, determined to kill Yu Daochen.
Yu Daochen could not withstand the evil spirit's fierce blows. After taking two hits, he was already retreating repeatedly. If he hadn't controlled the Samsara Blood Tear short sword to weave back and forth, the evil spirit would have smashed his head with its spinal bone long ago.
With another fierce strike, Yu Daochen barely managed to block, his body retreating. He staggered to steady himself.
Seeing that Yu Daochen could no longer hold on, the evil spirit swung its spinal bone, preparing to deliver a final blow that would prevent Yu Daochen from ever getting up again.
Yu Daochen watched the evil spirit swing its spinal bone to strike him and a plan formed in his mind.
It was impossible to stall until dawn now, and the longer he delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be for him. If he continued to drag it out, he would surely die. He could only trade one for one.
Although there was some risk, it was the only method available now.
The evil spirit rushed to Yu Daochen and swung its spinal bone fiercely towards Yu Daochen's head.
Yu Daochen did not dodge this powerful blow. Instead, he tilted his head to the left. The evil spirit's spinal bone struck Yu Daochen's right shoulder.
Crack!
The sound of a bone breaking came from Yu Daochen's right shoulder.
Yu Daochen was in so much pain that he almost fainted, but he still gritted his teeth and tightly grasped the spinal bone embedded in his shoulder. He then controlled the Samsara Blood Tear short sword to shoot towards the evil spirit.
Seeing this, the evil spirit tried to pull its spinal bone free, but Yu Daochen held on tightly. The evil spirit had no choice but to release its spinal bone and dodge the Samsara Blood Tear short sword. However, it was already too late. The Samsara Blood Tear short sword pierced directly through its body.
The evil spirit kicked Yu Daochen away and then quickly condensed demonic energy in its hand to cover the wound, kneeling directly on the ground.
Yu Daochen was kicked flying and his body slammed heavily against a large rock with a muffled groan.
Yu Daochen felt a stifling sensation in his chest. The blood that reached his mouth was swallowed back down before he could spit it out.
Yu Daochen's pale complexion became even paler. He knew that if this evil spirit saw him spitting blood, it would launch a desperate attack.
Yu Daochen tried to raise his hand, but a sharp pain forced him to give up. He tried to use his other hand to support himself, but as soon as he exerted force, blood spurted out.
Seeing that Yu Daochen was at the end of his rope, the evil spirit burst into laughter: "Hahaha, brat, you're going to die today!!"
Yu Daochen sighed softly and slowly closed his eyes. He was in no condition to fight back, let alone stand up.
It seemed fate was against Yu Daochen!
Yu Daochen suddenly thought of that person in his mind, but he probably wouldn't see him again.
The evil spirit slowly stood up, laughing wildly: "You are the first person to push me to this extent."
The evil spirit walked towards Yu Daochen step by step, laughing wildly, as if Yu Daochen was doomed to die.
Yu Daochen watched the evil spirit approach him step by step, having given up all hope.
Just as the evil spirit was less than five meters away from Yu Daochen, it suddenly stopped. Its wild laughter ceased abruptly, and its expression instantly turned solemn.
Yu Daochen was stunned. Before he could react, the evil spirit fell to its knees with a thud, and demonic energy rapidly surged from its wound.
The evil spirit condensed a large amount of black energy in its hand to cover the wound, its face contorting in pain. It tried to stand up but couldn't.
The evil spirit was unwilling: "I was so close to killing this brat."
Seeing that the evil spirit also had no strength to attack, Yu Daochen burst into laughter: "Heaven does not wish for my demise! I will not die in this great calamity!!"
Yu Daochen felt a surge of exhilaration. His gamble had paid off. This victory belonged to him. When the sun rose, it would be difficult for the evil spirit not to die.
"Come on, come kill me," Yu Daochen taunted.
Honestly, Yu Daochen had been holding back a breath of anger. If he hadn't been unable to defeat the evil spirit, he would have twisted its head off and used it as a ball to kick.
As the saying goes, if you can't win with your hands, you must win with your mouth.
This was also Yu Daochen's principle of doing things.
The evil spirit glared fiercely at Yu Daochen, wishing it could skin him alive and devour him: "Brat, don't get cocky."
Yu Daochen shook his head and became even more smug: "I am smug, I am arrogant. If you have the ability, get up and kill me. Get up."
Yu Daochen even stuck out his tongue as he spoke.
The evil spirit was driven to the brink of madness: "You can't kill me either, so why are you so arrogant?"
Seeing the evil spirit agitated, Yu Daochen became even more mocking: "Look at you getting worked up. You're getting worked up. If I can't kill you, then I can't kill you. Anyway, I'm not going through a tribulation."
Yu Daochen's mouth was like a machine gun, spewing out words continuously.
"You worked hard for over twenty years, and you were just one step away from transcending the tribulation, just one step! But now, poof, it's gone!"
"Hey, tell me, are you angry or not, angry or not!"
