Chapter 110: Chapter 107: Blood Shaver

Bai Pu rolled and dodged, only to see a dark yellow arrow of acid hit the spot where he had just been!

Toxic smoke rose, and the corrosiveness of the acid was simply astonishing. You had to know that the soil here must have a very high acid resistance, yet it was still corroded into a noticeable pit by the acid, which shows the destructive power of this acid!

Bai Pu got up and looked back.

In the underground hall, a hideous and terrifying demon leaped out of the golden pond in the center!

This demon was about 1.5 meters tall, with a short and small figure. Its entire body had no skin, like a skinned frog, revealing dark red muscle tissues. It held two oddly shaped hook-like weapons with its deformed arms.

Apparently, that acid attack was a sneak attack by it.

“This should be one of the trusted minions of the Demon General Ghost Leather. Judging from its appearance, it bears a great resemblance to the Demon General Ghost Leather!”

Previously, Bai Pu had collected intelligence in the real world regarding the appearance of the Ghost Leather from the Heart Demon World.

He pressed his forehead and activated his detection skill on this demon: Nine Chapters!

[Blood Shaver (Enhanced Elite Level 4)]

[Species: Demon Species/Mutant]

[Attributes: Power 27, Agility 55, Endurance 30, Spirit 10]

[Skill 1: Mutant Transformation: Blood Shaver has been transformed by the Demon General Ghost Leather using Yellow Springs Water, greatly enhancing its Physique Attribute while reducing intelligence and spirit, decreasing pain sensitivity by 50%.]

[Skill 2: Strong Acid: Blood Shaver disgorges a potent corrosive solution, inflicting severe toxin damage on the contaminated target with a high probability of disabling the target.]

[Skill 3~5: ???]

Bai Pu reached behind him and could vaguely feel the mess of flesh and a hint of a burnt smell.

[You have suffered acidic damage, and your Talent Skill: Adaptive Evolution has stored a new form: Mucous Membrane Coating.]

Bai Pu glanced at the Durability of the [Strong Strike Armor] and saw it drop by 5 points! Clearly, strong acid causes significant damage to metal armor.

Seeing the appearance of the Level 4 Enhanced Elite [Blood Shaver], Bai Pu wasn’t panicked, but rather a hint of excitement arose.

It was clear that this monster, resembling the body of Ghost Leather, had been transformed by Ghost Leather himself, specifically to protect his home!

Even after Bai Pu plundered various items from Ghost Leather’s table, Blood Shaver did not appear. It only attacked after Bai Pu reached the northernmost part beneath the skull oil lamp, confirming Bai Pu’s judgment—

Behind the hollow wall under the skull oil lamp, Ghost Leather must have hidden a treasure he values extremely!

Blood Shaver’s intelligence is not high, and its spirit is even lower. After being transformed, it follows an instinct: kill anyone who dares to approach the northern skull oil lamp!

So upon appearance, Blood Shaver launched a fierce attack on Bai Pu, opening a frog-like massive mouth, and invisible sound waves spread out!

The wind intensified in the underground cave, and invisible sound waves carried layers of transparent air ripples, with immense power, even lifting a thick layer of moist black soil in front of Blood Shaver, then hurling it violently toward Bai Pu!

The speed of the sound waves was extremely fast, leaving Bai Pu no time to evade as he was directly hit!

His head suddenly went blank, as if struck on the forehead by a giant hammer, gold stars burst in his eyes, causing him to fall into a 3-second coma! Fresh blood joyously spurted out of his nostrils and ears.

The golden light of the Golden Ox Horn Armor on Bai Pu’s body flashed, and the shadow of a massive ox demon appeared and disappeared! He had already used the skill [Evil Qi] attached to his equipment to break free from control.

Yet in that instant, Blood Shaver was already close!

Its powerful frog legs suddenly kicked off the ground, leaving a deep impression due to its immense force, quickly lunging forward, and its pair of hook-like weapons deeply latched onto Bai Pu’s throat!

Even though Bai Pu lifted the control effect in advance, Blood Shaver’s Agility was too high, creating an overwhelming speed suppression.

As soon as Bai Pu regained a bit of consciousness, he felt excruciating pain in his throat, plunging him into suffocating dizziness.

Simultaneously, he felt a lightness underfoot, his whole body soaring as if riding on clouds, then hurtling toward the steaming Yellow Springs pond!

[Blood Shaver’s Skill: Choke Slam activated!]

This powerful skill had two stages.

The first stage used its weapons to clutch the enemy’s throat, causing a choking effect and physical damage, reducing the enemy’s resistance against the throwing skill!

The second stage involved the user leaping high, taking the enemy into the air, and then forcefully smashing them against the ground, inflicting significant throwing damage that ignores defenses!

To guarantee the successful activation of [Choke Slam], Blood Shaver even used another strong control skill in advance—[Vibrating Sound Break]!

Bai Pu used the [Evil Qi] skill to break free, and the brief moment gained was just enough to do two things:

First, activate the [Unstable Shield].

Second, activate the newly stored evolution form—[Adaptive Evolution – Mucous Membrane Coating]!

With a colossal bang, Bai Pu was thrown into the Yellow Springs pond!

The Yellow Springs pond, though shallow at about three feet deep, served as a cushion, reducing the second stage throwing damage Bai Pu suffered.

However, Blood Shaver deliberately threw Bai Pu into the Yellow Springs.

Would it be so kind as to help Bai Pu lessen the throwing damage?

Absolutely impossible, the sole reason it did so was this Yellow Springs pond must be extremely unfriendly to living beings!

Sizzle—

Just like a drop of water in a hot oil pot, violent steam mixed with an acrid acidic smell rose, and Bai Pu’s Shield Value dropped drastically. In just 0.5 seconds, the [Unstable Shield] was directly broken!

During this 0.5 seconds, Bai Pu hadn’t even recovered from the paralysis effect of the throwing skill!

Pain, excruciating pain!

The moment Bai Pu regained freedom, he stood up from the Yellow Springs pond. The skin on his body was already corroded, showing red scars of varying depth, with his previously injured skin even exposing the ghastly white bones!

Whoosh!

The sound of the wind roared as Bai Pu leaped from the Yellow Springs pond. Instead of retreating, he charged directly at Blood Shaver!

Two-star Mutated Skill: Wind-Stepping Slash!

Blood Shaver tilted its frog head, evidently puzzled as to how the human before it, with mere flesh and blood, could survive rushing out of the Yellow Springs pond.

In fact, it was incredibly dangerous this time. If Bai Pu hadn’t activated the [Mucous Membrane Coating] against acidic damage in advance, he would surely have been completely corroded by the Yellow Spring’s water within a second without the protective coating similar to a stomach lining formed on his body surface!

In a flash, a projection of an ancient elite soldier of Huaxia flickered across Bai Pu’s body and merged with him, while a terrifying Scorpion-tailed Lion’s projection attached itself to Bai Pu’s saber blade!

Genetic Fragment activated.

With a swing, the powerful whirlwind from the [Wind-Stepping Slash] sent Blood Shaver flying, and the Qi Force infusion put Blood Shaver into a floating state.

Under the suppression of Level 7 Advanced Two-Handed Swordsmanship Specialization, Bai Pu’s slash was more likely to trigger the “Wind-Seeking” Special Effect, sweeping Blood Shaver away with the impact, leaving it floating mid-air.

After landing, Blood Shaver rolled and managed to escape Bai Pu’s pursuit, using only half of its frog-like leg as it tried to flee, severely hindered by the agile attack that severed it.
