Chapter 125: Flesh Cleaver Bone Breaker
Above the vast sea, the sea witch’s song gradually reached its end, shifting from an ethereal melody to an unbearably piercing wail.
Fierce winds whipped across the ocean, and beneath heavy dark clouds, the battered Devil Ray was on the verge of sinking.
People’s rationality slowly returned.
The commander of the White Seagull immediately regained confidence and began to issue orders:
“Is there anyone here brave enough to fight the witch?”
He had witnessed the battle between the Flower Witch and Chen Qi in its entirety.
The Flower Witch’s strength was formidable but she was clearly gravely injured.
The tentacle monster clad in the Hunter’s Garb was mysterious in origin but only had second-tier power.
The navy ships were not lacking in third-tier experts!
No one answered.The sea beasts circling near the Devil Ray alone were enough to frighten them off.
At this moment, An, an inconspicuous student from Beiguo Royal University, cautiously raised her hand.
She wanted to give it a try!
This move was quickly stopped by others; they didn’t want a student temp worker heading onto the Devil Ray.
Losing would be bad enough, but winning… would be even worse.
The White Seagull’s commander shook his head. On this ship, there was ultimately no one capable of contending with the witch.
Click! Click!
A reporter from the White Pigeon Times kept pressing the shutter, capturing images of the distant Devil Ray.
The scenes on the Devil Ray were even more comical.
Due to the enchanting song, the relationships among many crew members had suddenly shifted.
They could only quickly redirect their attacks toward Chen Qi and the Flower Witch.
“Attack!”
“Attack!”
“Charge!”
Everyone shouted to attack, but each waited for the other to make the first move.
Clearly, they lacked a fearless leader to start the fight.
Chen Qi paid little mind to these small fry and excitedly opened the rune box to examine the Flesh Cleaver Bone Breaker.
He had heard the weapon’s name but never encountered it or understood its exact effects.
Inside was a rust-stained blade, one point four meters long, wrapped in gray-white bandages on the handle.
A very special prompt appeared before his eyes.
[Flesh Cleaver Bone Breaker:
Affinity: Blade, Shadow
Equip Requirements: Strength 20, mastery of internal energy, slight mental resistance
Description: A weapon of sin forged by the Source of Sin workshop of the Black Blood Empire using resources from a B-grade dimensional rift.
Skills:
Absorb (Passive): As long as you wield this weapon, it absorbs your rage and spiritual energy to enhance its attack power.
Blade of Fury (Active): When absorbed rage reaches a threshold, the weapon transforms into a sharper blood-red long blade. The Blade of Fury absorbs internal energy and emotions, creating a special blade energy that strengthens all internal energy techniques, cutting through everything in sight.
Cleave Completely (Active): Enhances weapon attacks and severely suppresses flesh-and-blood creatures’ regeneration; bones and flesh struggle to heal.]
A sin weapon from the Black Blood Empire...
Although Beiguo controlled the hammer, in cold weapon forging, the Black Blood Empire was not inferior to the Kingdom of Bei.
“A rare sin weapon...”
Chen Qi extended his index finger and lightly touched the blade. Although he only brushed against rust, the finger immediately drew blood.
Incredibly sharp!
Chen Qi thought silently.
Of course, its greatest effect was the Blade of Fury mode, which strengthened internal energy attacks!
This weapon was likely forged using the rage absorption crystals dropped from the Seven Sins, seven major B-grade dimensional rifts within the Black Blood Empire.
Many forbidden creations required materials from the Seven Sins rifts, so Chen Qi’s impression was very deep.
Rage absorption crystals were items capable of absorbing rage emotions and significantly enhancing spiritual energy.
In other words, despite being called the Blade of Fury, this was essentially a blade of sorrow and extinguishment that calmed the wielder.
A tyrannical red warmth!
However, actively becoming angry was difficult. Even those with bad tempers and full of negative energy rarely could guarantee producing enough rage immediately in battle.
Waves stirred in Chen Qi’s mind.
This weapon seemed to perfectly complement Ember’s Touch!
Ember’s Touch ignited rage; then the Blade of Fury extinguished it; then Ember’s Touch reignited it; then the Blade of Fury extinguished it again...
A perfect cycle!
Chen Qi gripped the handle and tested it.
“Ember’s Binding...”
Unexpectedly, before the side effects of Ember’s Touch took hold, the Flesh Cleaver Bone Breaker absorbed it.
The effect was stronger than he imagined.
Flesh Cleaver Bone Breaker directly absorbed the rage generated by Ember’s Touch!
He originally thought he would become a toy between two forbidden creations, sometimes enraged, sometimes calm.
But in reality, only a small portion of the rage transmitted through Ember’s Touch reached him.
The exchange between these two forbidden creations completely ignored him!
Flesh Cleaver Bone Breaker could perfectly bear Ember’s Touch’s side effects on his behalf.
At the same time, Flesh Cleaver Bone Breaker itself needed rage emotions.
He could directly ignore the side effects and freely enjoy the effects of two forbidden creations.
Chen Qi was astonished to discover.
The relic left by the Deep Sea Hunters and that of his arch-enemy actually formed an almost perfect combination!
This gain might far surpass an ordinary weapon.
Chen Qi carefully stored the rune box while contemplating escape routes.
The other three boxes contained a green book, the Flower Witch’s staff, and the Joy Sprite capable of enhancing control effects.
The Flower Witch hugged her beloved flower staff, rubbing her little face against it, showing a look of pure enjoyment.
Nothing was more satisfying than regaining something lost!
This operation was a complete and resounding success!
Next, all that remained was to escape.
Chen Qi looked around.
For now, no one would dare to chase them.
But the escape had to be swift.
Whether navy or the Blackfin Crew, there was more than one ship in Sea Monster Gorge.
Besides, the legendary fourth-tier Palu, appearing on Sea Monster Island, was also a concern.
As the sea witch’s song ceased, the pirates on the Devil Ray gave up struggling and surrendered.
The navy was itching to capture Chen Qi and the Flower Witch.
At that moment, the sea witch’s song sounded again.
With so many spectators, they were ready to continue playing and dancing!
“La! La! La! La!”
Compared to before, this song was piercingly harsh!
“???”
Chen Qi was startled. This melody felt somewhat familiar.
Wasn’t this a song he had improvised?
My song was stolen! And rearranged!
The sea witch’s song combined Chen Qi’s singing voice with the salty loneliness of the sea, the gentleness and chill of moonlight, and the accumulated sorrow and despair of endless years.
The power of this song exceeded the original.
Each note felt like a cursed soul, like the whisper of ancient gods, struggling and wailing in darkness, trying to break free from eternal bonds.
More terrifying than the enchanting song!
Is this even allowed... Chen Qi was stunned and somewhat admiring of the sea witches’ rearrangement skills.
The restless navy instantly gave up their plan to act.
The Flower Witch turned her head; even wearing the Siren Necklace, she could still feel the terrifying killing power of the song.
“Retreat!”
Without hesitation, Chen Qi and the Flower Witch swiftly leapt into the sea, distancing themselves from the scene.
The unwilling navy watched as the two walked atop the sea filled with sea beasts.
Under the long song and the rising daylight, their shadows stretched long and then vanished.
