Getting a large spear shot through a person's chest was a lethal wound no doubt. A giant spear that had a serrated scorpion tip that leaked purple venom from the tip made it even more deadly.
But even here in the first Sanctuary. Sacred Blood creatures were strong. Very strong creatures with a powerful life force.
So even with my spear going through its chest. The Alpha minotaur roared furiously as it punched woody in the side of the head to knock it back, and then it swiped at us to get us off it's back as it leaned upright to it's full four-meter-tall form.
Yang Manli, herself, even with her injuries, used her free hand to stab what looked like a Sacred Blood dagger, likewise covered in some veno,m into it's upper shoulder before slashing at it's neck.
But by then it had whirled around, and we were both thrown off with my spear being pulled out of it's body as I was thrown off it.
As we landed on the ground, and Yang Manli hissed at the pain of said landing. I could already see the fist-sized hole in the alpha minotaur's chest was leaking a line of tainted purple blood amidst it's normal stream of red blood.
'The poison is going to work. Soon it's heart will be clogged up by it's blood turning yogurt thick.' I thought before I felt my senses screaming at me.
And I shoved Yang Manli far to the side as I rolled the other way as a female minotaur roared as it tried to run over us with ground-cracking steps.
Then the female minotaur was slammed into by the alpha as Woody, my Sacred Blood mountain, let out an elk-like scream of a call as it rammed its horns into the alpha's already wounded chest and pushed it back into the female.
I came up, ducked under the swing of a whistling fur-covered fist and then my spear turned black as I forced my Armament Haki into it. Before with a loud crunch, I stabbed the alpha successfully in the knee, making it roar in agony as it's leg gave out.
His roar was in turn answered by Woody clubbing it over the head with a stomp of it's large feet as woody let out another scream before it was shoved away by the female who got up and rammed itself into his horns without care.
"Mutant tier weapons are barely breaking through it's hides!" That one heir Kalio screamed before with a loud thud his mutant-tier armor visibly cracked as a minotaur's fist slammed into his chest and the humanoid minotaur then punched upwards to throw him two dozen meters into the air.
Then I watched... I slow motion, as that minotaur roared and stamped the ground, sending it flying backwards as he prepped a charge. And then it shot forward!
And then as Kalio fell out of the air, the minotaur slammed into him in mid-air. Spearing him with the horns atop it's head through his stomach with a vicious roar as then grabbed him by a leg and ripped him in half, with the upper half of his chest still stuck on the minotaur's head.
'Whelp... That young master isn't going to be a problem.' I thought even as I took out a mutant Water Arrow Crabclaw to shoot water arrows into the alpha's head and to get that larger female minotaur off Woody.
Then, with a flicker of silver, Qin Xuan the leader of the grou,p ran in as her horse form before transforming in mid-air to slice a Beast Soul sword across the alpha's head.
But her blade mostly just caught on it's horns with it roaring and punching at her with the air howling with the force of the blow.
"Damn, that thing is strong." I hissed with a frown as it was wounded and heavily poisoned yet it was still able to push Woody back who wasn't wounded beyond the strain of fighting such strength-based fighters.
Then a series of differing arrows shot into the alpha. The arrows stuck into it's head and upper shoulder with it staggering as it was blinded by the... Dozens of arrows were sent by the people who wanted to steal the kill to get the minotaur beast soul.
But even as it fell to the ground. I knew it wasn't dead yet!
So I dashed forward and, with a yell, I threw my spear forward, and with a cracking noise of broken bones. It's skull gave way to my spear, and I laughed as Qin Xuan and Yang Manli hissed.
[Sacred Blood Tier Minotaur killed- Consume to gain 1-10 Sacred Blood Geno points.- Sacred Blood Tier Minotaur Transformation, Beast Soul Gained.]
This... Was fucking perfect!
I pulled at the Minotaur Transformation Beast Soul and my vision twisted as I grew three meters taller. My spear likewise grew in length along with the Sacred Blood Soldier Ant Armor I wore.
I flexed my hands I felt the pure. Overwhelming physical power inherent to this beast soul and I put away my spear before I charged at the female minotaur that had been keeping Woody busy.
My Armament Haki covered my arm and with a loud thud! I slammed my fist directly into the minotaur's throat with all my strength.
I saw in slow motion as blood shot out of the minotaur's mouth as its head snapped back, and then I felt a crunch under my fist as the minotaur's neck snapped under the force of my fist.
I had finally achieved it! I could now confidently beat monsters to death with my bare hands! I laughed loudly. "Bwahahah!" My laugh carried farther than it should with the other minotaurs caught in battle pausing along with everyone else as the air around me shot outwards.
I could feel it. I could feel the Conqueror's Haki within me even though it was repressed at the moment.
I then turned on the other minotaurs as I grinned at seeing what amounted to as free Sacred Blood tier meat... And as I stepped forward to throw hands, I grimaced as I could literally feel my stamina quickly draining under the use of the Sacred Blood beast soul.
"Damn. Well, at least I can feel what a Zoan user is like." I muttered before shaking my head and dropping the transformation and taking back out my spear.
