Chapter 161: Exiled Blade·Riven
Exiled Blade·Riven!
Huo Jixing's eyes tightened as he looked at the person in front of him with his back turned, and instantly recognized her identity.
Riven's characteristics are really too obvious.
Dark green rune blade, short gray hair, heroic temperament,
This is also very unique among the many heroes in Valoran.
Huo Jixing looked intently.
In front of the boundless, surging scarlet energy tide, Riven's seemingly thin body was like an insurmountable mountain, standing still.
Yuan Ting Yue Zhi, ready to go!
“Master’s skill!”
Huo Jixing himself had embarked on the road of conquering the Grandmaster, and instantly sensed the realm of Riwen's skills.
But he was really curious in his heart.
In the memory of the past life, on the current timeline of Valoran.
Riven, known as the Blade of Exile, returned to Noxus from the Ionian Islands in chains and on charges of desertion.
The trauma of the past is never forgotten.
During the days of the Noxus Empire, Riven, an orphan, proved herself to be a born warrior.
The flames of countless wars have forged her into an unstoppable Noxian sword.
And she was so loyal to the Empire that Brandak Will himself granted her a Blackstone Runeblade.
Through her status as an orphan, Riven was given the honor of meeting the leader of Noxus, and had a dedicated magician enchant the rune blade. .
Throughout the history of the Noxian Empire, only a few have been able to do this.
"Is it Lord Swain?" Huo Jixing thought in his heart.
After all, Riven’s identity and the crime of desertion.
Only Swain, as the commander of Noxus, can order a pardon.
It seems that the undercurrent within the empire has become increasingly turbulent.
Just when Huo Jixing's thoughts emerged.
In the blood-colored hall where the air was scorching, the scarlet energy tide gradually solidified, turning into a blood ocean, setting off endless waves.
Vladimir’s semi-finished body, the brilliance flowing in his blood-colored eyes.
With his fighting instincts, he sensed the mortal danger Riven posed.
Wow! Wow!
Vladimir stretched out his right hand and waved it gently.
In an instant, the ocean of blood surged behind him, like a torrent opening, intertwining and rolling, making a deafening roar, washing and drowning everything in front of him.
Buzz! Buzz!
Dark green runic energy vibrates.
Riven lowered her gaze and looked at the rune blade in her hand. The blade was nearly as wide as the shield.
It seemed that she was careless about Vladimir's half-finished body, but deep down she was extremely vigilant.
As a Crimson Harvester, Vladimir left many indelible marks in the history of Noxus.
The Scarlet Secret Society created even penetrated the imperial military and aristocratic forces.
【Dance of Broken Wings】!
Facing the ocean of blood approaching her, Riven activated the runic energy covering her body and charged forward.
The dark green rune blade burst out with a sharp sword light like wind catkins under her movements.
And she herself is like a dancing elf, her steps are light and vigorous, like fallen leaves stepping on the lake, leaving no trace.
The first dance!
Riwen swings her sword, like a dance in a poem, elegant and smooth.
Crossing the oncoming ocean of blood, the rune blade in hand cut off the approaching scarlet energy tide.
Second dance!
Riven moved forward again, with the sharp sword hidden under the rune energy. Wherever the sword tip pointed, a hole seemed to be cut in the space, wiping out the bloody waves that came over.
The third dance!
Riven jumped high into the air, her eyes sharp and determined.
Then she waved the dark green rune blade and suddenly slashed out a terrifying sword light, hitting Vladimir in the sea of blood.
Boom!
A roar like breaking through clouds and cracking rocks sounded.
With the impact point as the center, the dark green runic energy and the scarlet energy tide began to collide crazily, and layers of red and green air waves spread to the surroundings.
Riven held the rune blade and stared at Vladimir who was close at hand.
The bloody rune glow that lit up in front of her stopped her final slash.
Vladimir raised his eyes and looked at Riven in front of him.
A little smile appeared on the cold and stiff face, as if to say that there was finally a decent battle.
He stretched out his right hand and tapped the center point where the rune blade fell.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
A vibrating sound like a bee echoed in my ears.
Riwen looked out of the corner of her eye and saw the already turbulent ocean of blood becoming more and more manic, like boiling magma, waiting for the final moment to erupt.
puff!
The bloody waves exploded.
This is like a signal, indicating the beginning of a bloody firework.
Poof! puff! puff! puff! puff! puff!
Looking from a distance, above the endless ocean of blood. Waves of splashing blood exploded one after another, like countless red pearls flying in the air.
They progressed towards each other, with a special rhythm, setting off a huge water curtain that extended to the area where Riven was.
【Tide of Blood】!
Vladimir used the ocean of blood that gathered scarlet energy as the fulcrum to create this scene that looked like a blood star exploding.
And Riwen, who was in the center, was like a bird in a cage, with no room to dodge.
"Huh?!" Vladimir's cold face showed a look of surprise.
When he saw Riwen close at hand, he seemed to be ignoring the huge red water curtain and instead of retreating, he advanced.
The rune blade in hand bloomed with brilliant dark green light.
At the same time, layers of wind seemed to appear out of thin air, turning into a transparent shield around Riwen's body.
【Go forward bravely】!
Riven listened to the roar and roar of the waves in her ears, stepped forward, and broke through the red water curtain.
Faced with the explosion of new blood stars all around, the Rune Blade fell again.
This time, Vladimir looked at the cut rune blade and had to retreat.
The solid glow of blood-colored runes in front of him was crumbling.
Click!
Two crisp voices sounded almost indiscriminately.
Vladimir's body was shaking, and the blood-colored robe he was wearing was torn and opened, and a hideous scar appeared on his chest and abdomen. Crystal clear blood penetrated the robe and dripped slowly.
Riven also felt uncomfortable. The dark green shield covering her body was broken, and the dark armor was corroded by scarlet energy, making the surface uneven.
But she still did not retreat, and rushed towards Vladimir again with a proud attitude.
“Ugh!”
Vladimir reached out and brushed the wound, his fingertips were stained with crystal blood, put it into his mouth, and savored it.
The feeling of injury seemed to be something he hadn’t encountered in a long time and was somewhat forgotten.
Looking at Riven who attacked again, Vladimir's blood-red eyes ignited a little.
【Blood Conversion】!
The crystal blood dripping from his chest, under the control of invisible force, stopped dripping and slowly rose into the air, surrounding his side.
Vladimir stretched out his hand, as if holding all the blood flowing out, and aimed at Riven who was slashing with his sword.
Pfft! Poof!
The crystal blood melted, and wisps of bright red ripples emerged, blending into the surrounding sea of blood.
Then, he quietly approached Riven, intending to imprison her body and extract the extraordinary blood from her body to please the injured Vladimir.
Xu Shi sensed the danger coming.
The moment Riven danced, she waved the rune blade in her hand and let out a deafening roar.
【Soul-Calming Roar】!
The rune blade held by Riven burst out with a surge of dark green energy, consuming and eliminating all abnormal energy around her body.
“Huh!”
Riven gasped, the continuous explosions made her body unbearable, and at the same time consumed a lot of her energy.
"This guy!"
She looked at Vladimir in front of her, and the wounds she had forcibly cut off were healing.
The sea of blood around him is constantly flowing towards Vladimir, injecting blood energy into him continuously to make up for the previous consumption.
“We must first destroy the ocean of blood!”
Riven looked around the bloody hall and noticed that most of the entire building had collapsed.
Broken stone pillars and walls can be seen everywhere, and huge stones and concrete bricks are scattered on the ground.
But the ocean of blood was not affected at all and was still eroding the building.
"Is it Vladimir's own power? Or does it come from the Scarlet Ritual?"
Riven maintained her own offensive rhythm and suppressed the surging sea of blood that never stopped.
Later, she realized that if she continued like this, she would definitely exhaust her physical strength and extraordinary power before Vladimir.
Riven steeled herself again and launched a counterattack.
With light and graceful steps, he crossed the ocean of blood in front of him, and the rune blade he held flashed with dark green energy.
Buzz! Buzz!
The wind trembled beside her, and Riven slashed the rune blade from her hand.
But the waves that kept lapping exploded in front of her, and terrifying bloody energy erupted, stopping her offensive.
Riven took a deep breath and looked solemn.
The distance was only seven or eight meters, but it was like a ravine between heaven and earth, blocking her progress.
She looked at Vladimir who was approaching, and saw the winning attitude in those blood-colored eyes.
“I haven’t lost my fighting spirit yet!”
Riven clenched the rune blade in her hand, preparing to fight with all her strength, when she seemed to notice something and looked back.
Lord Swain had asked that the newcomers to Noxus who needed her protection have not left yet and stayed where they were.
“His power?”
Riwen looked surprised, seeing the red-gold flames burning all over Huo Jixing’s body, which were undergoing changes.
