The water monster lunging at Chen Nan and the others saw this and sighed, "Truly a ruthless person, but why would you mutilate yourself?"
As soon as the words fell.
Its eyes were gripped by intense pain.
The world turned a bloody crimson.
Blood flowed from its eyes.
"Damn it, what kind of technique is this?"
"Why am I injured when you mutilate yourself?"
The water monster plummeted from the air, emitting a soul-wrenching scream.
Following that.
The crimson vision was replaced by eternal darkness.
It...
It was blind!
Wu Jiu and the others were stunned into silence.
Chen Nan's strength seemed even more incredible than they had imagined.
Such a scene had never been depicted even in books.
Chen Nan pulled out the crossbow bolt from his eye socket and then fiercely plunged it into his own thigh.
*Thwack!*
A gush of crimson blood sprayed from the water monster's leg.
"Who are you? Why do you possess such terrifying means?" the water monster cried out, a profound fear rising within its heart.
This fear was far more intense than the previous encirclement by ten experts of the Huaxing realm.
Seeing the water monster about to flee south, Chen Nan plunged the crossbow bolt into his left thigh and yelled at Leng Yinyin and the others, "Don't just stand there, stab me!"
Leng Yinyin knew Chen Nan's capabilities.
Without hesitation.
She immediately summoned her long sword and stabbed it into Chen Nan's chest.
*Stab, stab!*
Her speed was swift.
Each sword pierced through Chen Nan's chest.
Chen Nan stared at her, dumbfounded.
His sister-in-law seemed to have some lingering resentment towards him!
Otherwise.
Would she be so frantically attacking him?
Wu Jiu was also shocked to see.
As Leng Yinyin pierced Chen Nan's body.
Wisps of blood mist appeared on the water monster's body.
He was immediately awestruck.
He understood that Chen Nan was transferring the attacks he received onto the water monster.
Without further thought.
He immediately raised his saber and plunged it directly into Chen Nan's abdomen!
Then he twisted the hilt!
The water monster let out a heart-splitting shriek and crawled away, stumbling.
A wound the size of a bowl appeared on its abdomen.
Blood and internal organs were continuously spilling out.
It was a horrifying sight.
"Cut my legs!" Chen Nan did not want the water monster to escape, and immediately shouted to Song Yunfei, "Chop my legs!"
"Alright!" Song Yunfei angrily raised his saber and directly slashed at Chen Nan's right leg.
As the blade passed through Chen Nan's right leg.
The water monster's right leg was instantly severed, causing it to fall to the ground in disarray.
Seeing the strike succeed.
Song Yunfei once again swung his saber at Chen Nan's left leg.
Simultaneously.
Wu Jiu also struck twice, severing Chen Nan's arms.
*Thwack!*
*Thwack!*
The water monster's arms were severed.
Blood flowed endlessly.
The water monster was severely wounded.
"Watch this!"
Leng Yinyin held her long sword, directly thrusting it into Chen Nan's brow and then vigorously twisting it.
The water monster screamed incessantly, its body rolling frantically on the ground, crashing through the courtyard wall with a dull thud.
Chen Nan's face turned ashen.
Although he could transfer the attacks he received onto the water monster.
It consumed his mental energy.
Especially when subjected to extremely strong damage, he would also feel pain.
Seeing that the water monster was still alive.
Leng Yinyin suddenly gripped the sword hilt and made a downward slicing motion.
It looked as if she was splitting Chen Nan in two.
"Go to hell!"
Chen Nan kicked Leng Yinyin away, "Are you trying to take revenge and kill me?"
His face was ashen.
His mental energy had reached its limit.
At this point, even the slightest injury could harm him.
It could not be transferred to the water monster.
"I'm sorry, brother-in-law, I didn't mean to." Leng Yinyin looked uneasy.
"We'll settle this after we kill this water monster!"
Chen Nan grunted irritably and then looked at the water monster in the distance.
The water monster was blind.
Its limbs were gone.
It was now crawling towards the distance like a maggot.
Although it was severely injured, it was not fatal.
"How can we kill it?" Wu Jiu looked at Chen Nan, "We've finally heavily wounded it, it would be a real shame if it escaped."
If they were completely outmatched by the water monster, it would be one thing.
The problem was.
The water monster was now heavily injured.
If it escaped, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
Just thinking about it was a waste.
After all.
This water monster posed a great threat.
Even ten experts of the Huaxing realm couldn't kill it.
If they managed to kill it, everyone would receive great merit.
Chen Nan took out two Body Tempering Pills, swallowed them, and began to recover his stamina, then said, "Water and fire are incompatible. Trap it with fire, no matter what, we cannot let it return to the river!"
Wu Jiu and the others reacted swiftly.
They immediately jumped into the courtyard, pushed over all the doors and windows, then brought out bedding and set the broken doors and windows ablaze, holding them to block the water monster's retreat.
Despite the heavy rain.
The wood burned fiercely, crackling loudly.
Leng Yinyin looked at Chen Nan and asked cautiously, "Brother-in-law, have you thought of a way to kill the water monster?"
Chen Nan gave her a glare, "I want to kill you!"
"Brother-in-law, you misunderstand me. I didn't mean to before. I just wanted to take the opportunity to kill this water monster." Leng Yinyin lowered her head nervously. Although she harbored animosity towards Chen Nan due to her sister,
Putting that aside.
Chen Nan was still a capable and handsome man.
More importantly, he had become her master's brother.
Therefore.
She had never intended to take advantage of the situation to kill Chen Nan out of personal grievance.
Chen Nan asked, "Can you kill the water monster?"
Leng Yinyin shook her head, "Based on my knowledge of this water monster, its strength should have reached the peak of the Huaxing realm. Even if I used my strongest techniques, I couldn't kill it."
Huaxing.
As the name suggests, reaching this realm allows one to transform into human form.
The biggest difference between the Soul Devouring realm and the Huaxing realm was that experts in the Soul Devouring realm could devour other people's souls.
Now that the water monster was heavily injured, yet it hadn't used soul attacks to devour souls, it indicated it only possessed Huaxing realm cultivation.
However.
Even so.
With their strength, they were still not enough to contend with this water monster!
Chen Nan sighed, "Yes, this water monster is very strong."
"It's fortunate that we are fighting it on land."
"If we didn't have the advantage of terrain and human support, we wouldn't have been able to injure it at all."
"If we were in the water, I wouldn't be able to transfer the attacks I received onto the water monster."
"As for whether we can kill it..."
At this point, Chen Nan looked at the night sky and said, "It depends on fate!"
Roar!
The water monster let out a deafening roar, and its terrifying aura swept out, instantly extinguishing the flames in front of it.
Then it quickly writhed its body and crawled south.
Boom!
Without any warning.
A thunderclap appeared in the sky.
Lightning flashed through the void in the darkness.
Chen Nan glanced at the water monster that was about to escape, a wild smile spreading across his face, "It seems we have the advantage of time, terrain, and human support!"
As he spoke.
He snatched the long sword from Leng Yinyin's hand.
As a bolt of heavenly lightning descended, he pointed his sword at the sky and charged upwards.
The lightning instantly struck Chen Nan.
And he let out a frenzied roar, forcibly transferring the heavenly lightning's attack onto the water monster...
