C12 (1/2)

Just as I was about to give up resisting, Saner suddenly raised his head from the coffin, and shouted at me: ”Look at that fire.”

I narrowed my eyes that were swollen like steamed buns, lying in the air and looking towards Saner's direction.

In my blurry vision, I saw that among the six different colored flames, there was actually … He was sitting on a white silhouette.

That figure was hidden within the flames and blurry. If it wasn't for Saner's reminder, I wouldn't have noticed them at all.

”So that's how it is. So that's how it is.”

I muttered to myself as I fiercely pressed on the Heavenly Crying's hilt. Then, I raised my hand and threw the Heavenly Crying into the flames.

Only Saner and I know this secret. There was a groove hidden on the Heavenly Crying's hilt, and there was a thread hidden inside that was made from an unknown substance. It was also extremely sharp, like a Heavenly Crying, and it was able to cut through gold and jade.

With these threads, the Heavenly Crying could be thrown out like a knife and be taken back.

The golem didn't seem to have expected me to use this move, but it was already too late.

My legs spun in the air and I immediately stood up from the ground. I brandished the Heavenly Crying in my hands, creating a beautiful line as I chased after the flames.

The flames were suspended on the walls of the cave as if they were unmoving targets, while the Heavenly Crying was as fast as lightning. I knew that this might be my last attack, so I used up all of my strength to dodge the golem's attack while simultaneously attacking the Heavenly Crying towards the flame.

”Chi!”

When I withdrew the Heavenly Crying from the flames, I discovered that the tip of the Heavenly Crying's blade had returned with a worm that was as white as jade and as big as an adult's arm.

The insect looked like a silkworm, but I didn't have enough time to look at it closely. I kicked the tip of the Heavenly Crying's blade, and the Heavenly Crying flew out again to attack the yellow flame after circling it a few times in the air.

”Chi!”

I hit the yellow fire again, and when I looked back, as I expected, the yellow and blue doll was still and lifeless.

Behind my back, the black doll waved its arm and swept towards my back. When the sharp wind behind my ears sounded, I no longer had the time to break a single flame. Under my light control, the Heavenly Crying circled around my neck and pierced into the eyes of the puppet behind me.

”Chi!”

Under my sudden move, the black doll paused for a few seconds, but that was already enough. I immediately bent over and rolled forward, the Heavenly Crying that was stuck in the hole in the puppet's eye, once again turned into a meteor and flew towards the next flame.

The three puppets had already stopped moving, but my pressure was gradually increasing. The fire bug seemed to have a human nature, when it felt that the Heavenly Crying in my hand was a deadly threat, it actually controlled the puppet to attack me more and more fiercely.

There were still three puppets left, red, white and black. These three puppets represented Heaven, Earth and Asura, and with their fierce attacks, I was gradually forced into a corner. The violent movements also increased the consumption of my stamina, and gradually, my body started to slow down.

Another strike hit my back, causing me to stagger forward a few steps. After my vision went black, a mouthful of blood sprayed out, landing right on the Heavenly Crying.

”Buzz!”

Although I had always known that Heavenly Crying was an extraordinary dagger, I had never used blood to wipe away the Heavenly Crying's wounds. In fact, other than blood from the marten, I had never seen a blood stain on a Heavenly Crying before.

However, in this most critical moment, the Heavenly Crying was accidentally stained with my blood.

But after the Heavenly Crying let out a dull sound, it jumped out by itself.

”This …”
