David never expected that the venomous spike of the Snake Spirit would be so resilient, able to withstand his alloy short knife. In that moment when the Snake Spirit lowered its head, David quickly retracted the alloy short knife and stomped forcefully on the ground. Utilizing the recoil, he leaped into the air and landed on top of a car, while the light from the flash grenade slowly dissipated.

Standing up, David stared intently at the Snake Spirit. After his strike with the alloy short knife, he noticed a gaping wound on its venomous spike, from which more poisonous gas was slowly seeping out. However, the Snake Spirit seemed to have been shaken by David's attack, now shaking its head to regain clarity.

"Give up, for you are powerless against the mighty Snake Spirit! If you submit to me now, I will let the Snake Spirit bless your body and make you my glorious subordinate," Gary, who was watching the battle, saw this scene and sneered, speaking to David.

"Hmph! Become your subordinate? In your dreams!" David disdainfully replied to Gary.

At the same time, David looked at the Snake Spirit again, contemplating how to deal with it. He initially intended for Duke to use shadow techniques to control the Snake Spirit while he delivered a fatal blow. However, the creature seemed to have recognized Duke's ability earlier, refusing to step into the light where its shadow would be exposed.

"What a cunning creature!" David rubbed his sore hand and said.

During their previous encounter, David understood that he couldn't engage the Snake Spirit in close combat if he wanted to defeat it. He needed to maintain distance and attack from afar.

After all, he didn't know the potency of the Snake Spirit's venom. If he recklessly approached, he might end up being struck by its venomous spike, which would only lead to more trouble.

Now that he had a battle plan in mind, David mustered up his confidence. With a wave of his hand, a spatial portal quickly opened before him. Then, with a leap, he jumped into the portal and disappeared.

The Snake Spirit had already regained its senses and had been continuously watching David, its crimson snake tongue flicking in the air. The moment David disappeared, it became cautious, continuously testing the air with its tongue, attempting to locate its vanished opponent.

"No need to search, I'm right here!" Suddenly, David manifested from above, holding the spatial blade in his right hand, and viciously swung it towards the Snake Spirit's vital spot. However, due to the Snake Spirit's keen sense of smell, it already knew his position the instant David appeared. So as David swung his blade down, the creature twisted its body intensely, narrowly evading his strike.

"Boom!" The spatial blade struck the ground with a tremendous roar. But David wasn't finished yet. He had already anticipated that the Snake Spirit would quickly pinpoint his location. So, the moment he landed, he swiftly raised the alloy short knife once again.

"Slash!" The alloy short knife sliced through the air, producing bursts of sonic booms as it mercilessly cleaved towards the Snake Spirit. Another crisp metallic sound resounded as David's strike directly hit the creature's body. Upon contact, sparks erupted between the alloy short knife and its skin.I think you should take a look at

"Hiss~ Hiss~" The Snake Spirit seemed to feel pain from David's attack and began coiling its body while letting out hissing sounds. Witnessing the effectiveness of his strike, David felt overjoyed. He once again opened a spatial portal, disappearing from his original position. Then, taking advantage of the Snake Spirit's reaction, he suddenly appeared behind it and viciously swung the alloy short knife once more.

"Hiss~ Hiss~" The strike once again hit the serpent spirit's body, and a miserable sound instantly escaped its mouth. Seeing his serpent spirit continuously attacked by David, Gary, standing aside, had an incredibly dark expression on his face, mixed with anger.

At this moment, blood began to seep from the corners of Gary's mouth. As a hybrid of human and serpent, he shared a physiological and mental resonance with the serpent spirit. Whenever the serpent spirit was harmed, he would feel the pain as well. Therefore, David's two strikes indirectly struck him.

"Damn it! How dare you insult the great serpent spirit like this!" Gary gritted his teeth and spoke through clenched jaws. Suddenly, a colder aura emanated from him. He extended his index finger into his mouth and bit down hard, causing black blood to flow from his fingertip.

The serpent spirit seemed to sense the scent of the black blood and immediately became excited. It swiftly swam towards Gary's side and opened its mouth wide towards his finger. Gary's hand was instantly bitten by the serpent spirit, and the black blood flowed into its body.

"Since that's the case, don't blame me for using the blood sacrifice." Gary looked at David with an icy gaze, a smug expression appearing on his face. Observing Gary's peculiar action, David furrowed his brow.

"Blood sacrifice?" David recalled this somewhat familiar name and suddenly remembered what this ability was about.

In his previous life, David had seen some espers who used their own blood to summon a stronger version of their spirit beasts. Because it required sacrificing oneself, this ability was called blood sacrifice. In other words, it involved feeding one's spirit beast with their own flesh and blood to awaken its hidden potential and enhance its combat power.

David never expected that this ancient and legendary method was still being used by someone. He stared intently at the serpent spirit, tightly gripping his dual blades. At this moment, after consuming Gary's blood sacrifice, the serpent spirit instantly doubled in size. The abyssal spines on its head also grew thicker, and the venomous aura emanating from the spines became even more intense. The color of the venom changed from black to purple, a sign of intensified toxicity.

Soon, the serpent spirit slowly released Gary's fingers from its mouth. It then turned its head again, facing David's direction, with a chilling gleam in its triangular eyes.

"Hiss!!! Hiss!!!" The serpent spirit spat out its serpent-like tongue, and its hissing sound was even more imposing than before. This made the other members of the team tense up. They could also sense that the serpent spirit's combat power had increased significantly. Beside them, Cola, upon feeling this aura, even activated its transcendental state. Its fur bristled, and it stared intently at the serpent spirit, growling softly.

The air in the underground parking lot suddenly became tense. Gary glanced triumphantly at the serpent spirit beneath his feet, then cast a glance at David. He knew that the slaughter had just begun.
