If that's the case, this is a demonic sword that can constantly grow, at the cost of endless blood and slaughter.
For Nox, this is nothing; it's just blood and slaughter. From the moment he arrived in this World, he was destined to be accompanied by blood and slaughter.
"Let me see your power!"
Nox walked over to the two large wooden barrels he had moved earlier. These contained the blood of Sea Kings, which he had prepared before coming here.
Inserting the Seven Star Sword into the wooden barrel, Nox could clearly feel the excitement of the Seven Star Sword.
The patterns on the Seven Star Sword's body glowed green, absorbing the essence of the blood from the barrel into the sword body.
Through the Seven Star Sword, Nox could see a trace of the blood essence gathering in the blood groove of the second star.
The blood from the two large wooden barrels only provided two traces of blood essence to the Seven Star Sword. It was unknown how many more barrels of blood would be needed to fill the blood groove of the second star.
The blood in the two large wooden barrels, which had its essence absorbed, became turbid and dull, and emitted a foul odor, like blood that had been exposed to the sun for several days.
"Hahaha, it really works, it can really absorb blood, that's great, it truly lives up to its name as the demonic sword, the Seven Star Sword!"
After proving that the Seven Star Sword could grow stronger by absorbing blood, Nox was extremely excited.
As for the quantity problem, that's not a problem at all. It's just blood, and the World is never short of blood, after all, blood is a renewable resource.
"I didn't expect that besides getting stronger, it also has the ability to restore stamina. This is simply a perfect sword!"
Besides feeling that the Seven Star Sword had become slightly stronger, he also felt that while the Seven Star Sword was absorbing blood just now, it also gave him a certain amount of power in return.
However, this power was digested after entering Nox's powerful body, transforming into energy to restore stamina.
It is important to know how crucial stamina recovery is for a strong person.
Many strong individuals can fight for ten days and nights without issue, but if they continue to fight, their combat power will decrease due to lack of stamina.
To kill a strong person of the same level, besides using overwhelming power, one can also exhaust the enemy's stamina before killing them, which significantly increases the success rate.
The existence of the Seven Star Sword allows Nox to weaken enemies and absorb their blood to restore his own stamina. For Nox, this is simply a trump card!
As long as he can break through defenses, he can continuously maintain peak stamina and his combat power won't decline due to stamina issues.
Similarly, in a prolonged fight, the enemy's combat power will decline due to their blood being continuously absorbed and their lack of stamina, tilting the scales of victory towards Nox.
"Ying!!!"
The noise made by Nox nearby woke Athena from her sleep.
"Ah!!!!"
When she saw the pool of blood on the ground, Nox's strong, unclothed body, and her own nakedness, she immediately covered her eyes and screamed.
"Turn around!"
Athena quickly picked up the clothes on the ground to cover herself, but the situation of being half-covered made her even more noticeable.
"Wear it or not, I don't care!"
Nox didn't turn around. He picked up his own clothes and, in front of Athena, started dressing himself, his eyes still fixed on Athena.
"You hooligan!"
Seeing Nox's shameless appearance, Athena could only blush and turn around to get dressed herself.
"You really subdued the Seven Star Sword?"
After getting dressed, Athena looked at the Seven Star Sword in Nox's hand.
And his clear eyes, showing no sign of being confused by the Seven Star Sword, made her somewhat disbelieving.
That was the Seven Star Sword, the Seven Star Sword that had brought endless blood, hatred, war, and slaughter to this sea area. How could it be subdued by a single person?
Nox did not answer Athena, but raised the Seven Star Sword in his hand and slashed fiercely at the sky.
"Bloodlust·Demonic Fire Slash!!!"
Suddenly, the Seven Star Sword's Sword Intent erupted, empowering the Seven Star Sword, and a five-hundred-meter-long slash carrying green demonic fire was unleashed!
Originally, the sky above Asuka Island had become overcast due to the Seven Star Sword's emergence.
But as the massive slash from the Seven Star Sword rushed towards the sky, it split the clouds covering the sky with a single strike!!
Sunlight shone through the massive crack, illuminating Asuka Island and Athena's face.
It made her clearly perceive that this was real, that this man who had taken her virginity had truly subdued the Seven Star Sword.
"Even if the Seven Star Sword is called a cursed demonic sword, it is still a sword. As a sword, there will be a day when it is subdued, and I am now the master of the Seven Star Sword."
"As the witch who sealed the Seven Star Sword, you have guarded the Seven Star Sword for generations. Now that the Seven Star Sword has been subdued by me, and you have become my woman, come with me."
After retracting the Seven Star Sword into his body, Nox said to Athena.
He hadn't expected that he would end up doing that to Athena because he was unfamiliar with the Seven Star Sword's Sword Intent right after subduing it.
But since it had already become a fact, he wouldn't say anything. His woman naturally couldn't be left wandering outside and could only follow him.
"No, you are a great villain, I will not go with you!"
Athena knew that the person in front of her was a villain even more terrifying than the Seven Star Sword.
Having received a witch's education since childhood, she could not accept a man like Nox, even if this man had taken her most precious thing.
"As my woman, if you refuse to follow me, I will personally send you to your death!"
"That direction seems to be where your village is located. Don't worry, so you won't be lonely on the road to the underworld, I will send them down with you with one sword strike to reunite!"
Saying this, the Seven Star Sword reappeared in Nox's hand, and the majestic Seven Star Sword's Sword Intent condensed on the blade, as if it could unleash a world-shattering strike at any moment.
"No, don't hurt them!!!"
She had personally witnessed the sword strike that Nox had just used to cleave the sky. If such a strike were to fall on the village, absolutely no one would survive!
"Then, do you choose to die with them, or come with me and let me spare them?"
Nox did not put away the Seven Star Sword, but turned to look at Athena, waiting for her answer.
If Athena were not his woman, he would not have waited so patiently.
"I, I'll go with you!"
Athena's painful inner struggle constantly reminded her that she absolutely could not let Nox harm the people of the village. In the end, she chose to go with Nox.
