--- Chapter 100 ---
BOOM!
CLANK!
CRACK!
The sky filled with different kinds of lights, causing several shrieks and corpses to fall like raindrops. It was a terrifying sight to see, but what's more frightening was a gray-colored mist that covered over 400 meters radius, swallowing anyone who entered it.
And anyone who entered has experienced death so far.
The spectators afar sucked a cold breath because they expected Fallen Orchid Sect to fall today, yet they could turn the table around somehow.
"This is a mess..." Someone couldn't help but comment. Even though he possessed the 7-Star Dou Ancestor Realm, he didn't have the confidence to enter that mist-filled battlefield.
They literally stayed quite far away from the battlefield, but blood's scent still filled their nostrils. That said something about the war between Han Feng and Fallen Orchid Sect already.
"Fallen Orchid Sect might win..."
"No way..."
Within the gray-colored mist, Baek Ain immediately activated Golden Crow's Possession to increase his cultivation to 1-Star Dou Venerate and swung Severed Light at 2-Star Dou Venerate.
Even though Baek Ain lost in the cultivation base, his superior physique allowed him to gain an advantage over Han Feng's ally.
Not to mention several buffing skills Baek Ain hadn't used because Han Feng has nine Dou Venerate on his side, which means this backstabber has more connection than he thought.
But then, again. Han Feng is a 7-Tier Alchemist.
It's understandable to have a connection with a skillful Alchemist.
"Brat, you have some skills." The Dou Venerate in a purple-furred coat said while waving his claw at Baek Ain.
[Parry]
Baek Ain parried his claw and responded, "If I don't have skills, I wouldn't be confident fighting you guys."
"Hmph! A mere brat! Your cultivation base is too weak, even if you have enhanced it with mysterious power. You are one hundred years too soon to challenge me!" The Dou Venerate in a purple-furred coat extended his hand and released a mighty presence, covering the area with white lightning.
"I'll show you the immensity of the world!"
The corner of Baek Ain's mouth twitched in annoyance. He sighed inwardly because something like this was within his expectation.
But still, this cliche line.
Drawing his blade, Baek Ain stared at Dou Venerate in a purple-furred coat and activated Ashen's eyes. "Seven Kill Dance: Opening."
As the gray-colored mist is thick, even Dou Venerate has a tough time seeing the surrounding area. However, many Dou Venerate Experts have mastered "Spatial Strength." to a certain extent, so they could use it to sense their enemy. Well, unless they are also alchemists who have cultivated their Spiritual Sense to a grand stage.
Now imagine if that privilege was "suddenly." taken away.
"Wait, how could this be? I can't sense him?" The Dou Venerate in a purple-furred robe muttered in disbelief. Before he could react, a pair of ashen-colored eyes appeared before him.
He attacked with all his might but failed to grasp Baek Ain's location.
Slash!
Baek Ain chopped his head and said, "Your survival instinct is poor."
[Ding! You have killed 2-Star Dou Venerate]
"Next." Baek Ain stored the corpse of the 2-Star Dou Venerate because his parasites would like it, either as a host for them or a new friend.
Baek Ain disappeared and clashed with another enemy, but there were two Dou Venerate this time. They are also more annoying than the previous guy, having a 3-Star Dou Venerate realm.
They are also a pair of husband and wife, it seems.
"Brat, just be a good boy and hand over yourself to us." The wife said thoughtfully.
The husband snorted and commented, "Han Feng said to leave this brat alive for him, but cutting some limbs should be fine."
Baek Ain rolled his eyes and said, "What a pity."
"Pity?" The husband and wife reacted similarly.
"Pity, you old couple will die in my hand."
SWOOSH!
On the other area, The Fallen Orchid Sect fought against over three hundred Dou Ancestor Experts.
Lan Guan waved her massive sword and broke through the enemy's defense, cutting some weak Dou Ancestors in half. "Come on, show me more, you bastards!" She roared while moving like a swift wind.
BOOM!
The other elders didn't just stay there and watch as they fought the enemy with roughly similar cultivation realms. Their battle prowess has evolved under Lan Rou's teachings and torture, increasing their strength.
Even the Fallen Orchid Sect's Master and Grand Elder don't have a problem opposing someone one realm above their cultivation base.
Yi Xian supported the Fallen Orchid Sect with her poison, weakening the enemy. As long as these enemies were within Lan Rou's mist, she could spread her poison freely into their bloodstreams.
Yafei also helped the Fallen Orchid Sect by setting layers of traps, using some 1-Star Dou Ancestors from the enemy side like her puppets. They couldn't control their bodies and were "directly." forced to move according to her will.
Of course, Lan Rou is the key in this operation because her mist could confuse the enemy. It's a shame she couldn't maintain this mist for more than one hour, hoping others would reduce Han Feng's allies quickly.
"Hey, there is beauty here!" A group of 1-Star Dou Venerate appeared and surrounded Lan Rou. There are seven of them.
"I have the lowest cultivation here, but that doesn't mean I'm the weakest..." Lan Rou's eyes became cold as she disappeared from their vision.
"Huh, where is she?"
"She was there a moment ago-! AAAAAARGH!"
A blood-curdling scream reverberated in the mist as Lan Rou suddenly appeared out of nowhere and stabbed 1-Star Dou Ancestor Expert in the chest, making blood gush out like a mountain.
The six others were speechless.
"Catch here! Don't let her run away!"
However, it was too late because Lan Rou had disappeared into the mist again. They were unaware of six mist clones behind them.
"Killer Ghost Method: Ghost's Reaping Soul." Lan Rou murmured while looking at six corpses falling from the sky with bloodied holes in their chests.
Some people might have life-saving techniques, but Killer Ghost Method is not your typical Dou Technique. It was an assassination technique infused with Primal Ghost Dou Qi, not allowing anyone to heal from injuries and die as if they received a curse.
"Pesky Ants..."
"I hope Ain is doing alright." Lan Rou glanced at the separate area, which she had split under Baek Ain's command so no Dou Venerate would come to this side.
On Baek Ain's side, he spurted some blood and looked down on the couple of Dou Venerates. Their corpses fell from the sky and were caught by his parasites, entering the inventory.
[You have killed 3-Star Dou Venerate]
[You have killed 3-Star Dou Venerate]
"Fucking hell, the difference between 2-Star and 3-Star Dou Venerate is bigger than I thought. I fought two and received some injuries." Baek Ain wiped the blood from his mouth and felt Healing Factor repairing the damage.
He picked a Dou Booster Pill, an original 7-Star Pill he created, to enhance all his stats and energy recovery by 100% for the next hour. It has no side effects either.
"That's three... Six more."
Baek Ain used Super Jump and oversaw everything within a hundred-meter radius with his Sixth Sense.
[Lightning Impulse]
SWOOSH!
An arrow appeared before Baek Ain's eyes. He dodged it instinctively and felt the sharp tip brushing his right cheek.
"An Archer?" He frowned because long-range is not his forte.
Baek Ain could have used his ultimate move, which could cover several kilometers, just like when he defeated Old Ground Demon Ghost in the Endless Mountain. But that would cause friendly fire and counter the purpose of Lan Rou's mist.
He expanded his Sixth Sense and discovered the archer floating 169 meters away. It was a black-bearded Dou Venerate. This guy actually closed his eyes and relied on Spatial Strength to pinpoint Baek Ain's location.
Another arrow flew by, and Baek Ain parried it with his blade
[Parry]
Clank!
"So heavy." A weird expression formed on Baek Ain's face.
Baek Ain waved his Severed Light a few times and released the Blade Intent, causing the air to tremble slightly.
He stared at the archer's location and lowered his blade, waiting for the next arrow. Since he couldn't use the ultimate move, he only had to modify it to slash in a straight line.
Roughly 200 meters, Baek Ain's Ashen's Eyes focused on the Spatial Particles in the surrounding area.
SWOOSH!
Baek Ain gently tilted his body to the right and dodged the incoming arrow, swinging his blade up.
"Seven Kill Dance: Rising Opening."
An invincible intent slashed through the air and moved forward at breakneck speed. The archer somehow shivered and experienced Baek Ain's Balde Intent passing through his body.
[Ding! You have killed 1-Star Dou Venerate]
Baek Ain reached the archer's corpse and stored it in his inventory. "I'll see what's special about your archery later." He commented while feeling intense heat afar.
Blue Flame erupted in the sky and canceled Lan Rou's mist, exposing everyone in the area.
BOOM!
"Liu Kong, Kang Chan, Kang Xue, and Ming De Xiong. They died!" A surprised shout echoed in the area.
Baek Ain glanced at Han Feng's allies and saw Li Qinghe's shocked expression. It seemed the four earlier Dou Venerate Experts were "actually." connected to her.
"Y-You killed them!" Li Qinghe hatefully shouted.
Baek Ain smiled and returned, "They wanted to kill me first."
"Can't let them get this neck, no?"
"I want to kill more Dou Venerates, but that trashy Han Feng can break the mist in just fifteen minutes. Shame, I could have reduced the number more." He added casually.
"Well, I'm interested in fighting Five Dou Venerate Seniors and uh a trash."
Han Feng's eyes reddened in anger, "Just wait. I'll have the final laugh in this battle."
Baek Ain chuckled and returned, "Is that so?"
"You haven't noticed your Dou Ancestors allies aren't here?"
As if a switch gets hit in their minds, Han Feng and the Five Dou Venerate looked around, yet they couldn't find a single Dou Ancestor from their side.
They looked far at Fallen Orchid Sect's side and saw some of their allies, but they were in bad condition. No, Han Feng isn't even sure if they are alive.
"How?!" Han Feng let out a shriek of surprise.
His eyes widened in disbelief because the Fallen Orchid Sect shouldn't have possessed any 8-Star Dou Ancestor or above.
Baek Ain gave a thumb up to the Fallen Orchid Sect and said, "Good job, and leave the rest to me."
"Go hide. Things are going to become bloody soon."
Lan Rou and others nodded as they quickly entered the Fallen Orchid Sect, causing the area to become dead silent.
Even the observers couldn't help but shut their mouths in surprise.
What level of confidence should one have to say such a thing confidently?
Looking at Baek Ain's youthful appearance, they could tell he was not even twenty.
Even though Baek Ain's cultivation surprised them, he was still far from fighting five Dou Venerates simultaneously. His fight will become even more difficult as Han Feng possesses Sea Heart Flame.
15th Ranked Heavenly Flame, even Dou Venerate Powerhouse didn't dare to treat such a thing lightly.
They could seal Heavenly Flame with their high mastery of Spatial Strength, but to absorb or even face it directly? They still need to be cautious.
Meanwhile, Baek Ain appeared to be stretching in the air.
"One, two, three... Ooh, Nice."
"I have fully recovered." He said excitedly.
"..." Han Feng.
"..." The Five Dou Venerates.
"..." The observers.
Baek Ain grabbed the Severed Light with his left hand and gently released a small sigh. "One with the blade." He muttered, feeling the overwhelming feeling in his soul.
[Revolver-Golden Crow's Possession activated]
[Wicked Sun's Ripple: Taboo Overdrive]
[Ancestor Blood's Mark: Full Release]
[Wraith's Form]
[Ashen's Eyes]
[Profound Temporal Eye]
[Sixth Sense]
A powerful presence exploded from Baek Ain's body and shocked everyone. His cultivation realm soared to 1-Star Dou Venerates, but the pressure he exuded was similar to that of 3-Star Dou Venerate Expert.
Not long after, a wisp of Golden Light and Four-Colored Flame erupted from his skin, which made him look like the incarnation of the sun.
Crimson lightning danced around him, clapping the air with a thunderous roar.
Baek Ain's ashen-colored eyes gaze at Han Feng and his allies, causing them to feel threatened.
"Let's dance to death..." A calm smile crept onto Baek Ain's face.
Han Feng was struck with fear for the first time and shouted, "S-So What if you were 1-Star Dou Venerate now? I have five Dou Venerates on my side!"
"What are you waiting for, ATTACK!"
"KILL HIM! HE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO FIGHT FOR TOO LONG!"
Li Qinghe moved first and brandished her blood-colored spear, "How dare you kill my friend!"
Baek Ain clenched his hand and said, "Then don't bring them here."
"Fool."
[Four Extreme Arts: Block]
Baek Ain blocked Li Qinghe's spear with his bare hand and lifted his entire body, kicking the wretched woman in the face. His strength focused on this kick and caused a bone-cracking sound.
Crack!
"Golden Annihilation." Baek Ain said upon landing the hit on Li Qinghe's face.
SWOOOOOOSH! BOOOOOOOOOM!!
Like a sun's flare, Li Qinghe's body flung one kilometer away and crashed into a forest. No life sign was "clearly." detected as the forest turned into a massive bonfire.
[Ding! You have killed 1-Star Dou Venerate]
Baek Ain used Spatial Strength and teleported Li Qinghe's burnt corpse. Her impure draconic bloodline still has a use for him.
A Dou Venerate got killed in just one move.
Everyone sucked a cold breath.
Freak.
No, This guy is a Monster.
Baek Ain kicked the air and combined Super Jump with Spatial Strength, rushing toward Han Feng.
BAM!
A 4-Star Dou Venerate blocked Baek Ain, using a mirror-like treasure to stop him.
"I won't let you." A woman in a white robe said solemnly.
Baek Ain pulled his arm and punched the mirror.
BAM!
The mirror didn't budge.
"It's useless. My mirror is High-Grade Dou Venerate's Weapon." The woman in the white robe sneered.
"You wouldn't be able to break it-!"
Baek Ain didn't bother to hear her as he punched a few more times, creating a crack in the mirror.
[Four Extreme Arts: Outer and Inner Destruction]
DING! KACHA!
The mirror shattered into pieces.
Baek Ain's free hand extended and reached the woman in a white robe's neck, crushing it into pieces.
After absorbing Ashen-Eyed Behemoth's Blood Essence, Baek Ain's physical strength is no lower than any Dou Venerate or even more superior because the Divine Beast: Behemoth is known for its tyrannical strength, which is no joke.
[Ding! You have killed 4-Star Dou Venerate]
Another shocking scene ensued in the sky.
"SURROUND HIM!" A burly man commanded as he marched forward bravely and clashed with Baek Ain.
The remaining Dou Venerates nodded, preparing a different kind of treasure to defeat Baek Ain.
Xiao Long, the white-haired elder from one week earlier, has broken through to 1-Star Dou Venerate Realm and waved his hand skillfully.
"16 Cycle of Heavenly Chains!" He let out a roar, trying to restrict Baek Ain's body and weaken him.
Another Dou Venerate hovered behind Baek Ain, playing a treasured flute, thus causing a melodious trap to weaken Baek Ain's senses.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
Baek Ain and the burly Dou Venerate exchanged blows, erasing each other's chunk of flesh.
Even so, Baek Ain still has a massive advantage because his Lightning Impulse allows him to dodge some critical attacks while the Healing Factor keeps him functioning.
The burly Dou Venerate noticed this and increased his attack's power by activating the bloodline inside his body. Scales grow on his skin, causing Baek Ain to scowl.
"Dragon..."
BAM!
Baek Ain couldn't dodge because Xiao Long successfully restricted his body for a second. His face made contact with the burly Dou Venerate's scaled-coated fist and flew several hundred meters away.
Puff!
Baek Ain felt the blood surge to his throat and coughed slightly. Three Dou Venerates chased after Baek Ain, using different methods to kill him.
Baek Ain waved his hand and created several golden-colored lotuses, filling the sky with them. "Red Purgatory Lotus!" He used the Record of Burning World's Sixth Move.
"Danger." The flute-wielding Dou Venerate warned.
"Explode." Baek Ain grinned, triggering the lotuses to burst with extreme firepower.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
Baek Ain secured a distance between himself while the three Dou Venerate dealt with the explosion.
"You're underestimating us, brat!" The burly man skipped the explosion with his Spatial Strength, moving with wormholes.
CLANK!
Crack!
Baek Ain parried his blade, seeing a crack on the edge.
"Uh, oh..." He was stunned. S-Grade Weapon actually couldn't resist 5-Star Dou Venerate?
Baek Ain didn't realize his Severed Light was outdated for his strength. It was still plausible for him to use Severed Light to fight Dou Ancestor, but Dou Venerate is a master of Spatial Strength.
But he could still fight with it.
"DIE, BRAT!"
"Brilliant King's Fist!" The burly Dou Venerate let out a roar.
The world became extremely slow for Baek Ain. He foresaw 5 seconds into the future and dodged accordingly, swinging his blade vertically.
Slash!
SWOOSH!
A shallow cut mark appeared on the burly Dou Venerate's chest. Blood spilled left and right, shocking him to the core.
Baek Ain didn't wait for his enemy to recover and launch another attack.
[Profound Temporal Eye]
Ding! BOOM!
Baek Ain teleported fifteen meters away and saw a massive sound wave rushing down to his former position, crushing the ground down deeply.
The flute-wielding Dou Venerate clicked his tongue and said, "You dodged my Sound-Waving Fist."
"I'm sure you can't sense me in Space Pocket, but it seems I was wrong."
"Seventh Chain." Xiao Long followed too, but Baek Ain miraculously dodged his attack too.
Baek Ain maintained a steady breath and taunted, "Come on, we don't have much time."
The three Dou Venerates released their killing intent and besieged Baek Ain with their strongest attacks.
[Super Jump X Spatial Strength]
[Spatial Jump]
Baek Ain disappeared and suddenly grasped Han Feng's neck, who stayed 3 kilometers away. "Surprise?" He smiled at the wretched alchemist.
"Y-You!" Han Feng was terrified and mad.
"Unhand me, right fucking NOW!"
Baek Ain chuckled and returned, "Don't wanna."
"We are here to kill each other. Why should I unhand you?"
"Oh, wait? You mean this." Baek Ain snapped Han Feng's hands, turning them into ashes.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHHHHH!!!"
Han Feng's face is green and white because of the pain of losing both hands, screaming like no tomorrow.
"I-I'll kill you! Even if I die, I'll be back and kill you!"
"You mean Unalive you? Sure." Baek Ain controlled Gnome's Flame and forcibly took Sea Heart Flame from Han Feng's body. The consequence is Han Feng's life.
In the first place, Han Feng hasn't fully refined the Sea Heart Flame because he doesn't possess Flame Mantra from Yao Chen, allowing anyone with extreme fire affinity to steal it.
[Ding! You have obtained "Sea Heart Flame."]
Yet there is no notification of Han Feng's Death.
'JUST WAIT! I'll return, I SHALL RETURN AND KILL YOU!' Han Feng's soul sneakily ran away, but how could he escape Baek Ain Ashen's Eyes?
Baek Ain's spiritual manipulation wasn't the best, but it's still stronger than Han Feng's.
He grabbed Han Feng's soul and tossed it inside his Soul Realm, which is no different than a dead end.
Han Feng tried to run away and was "actually." forced to use Soul Energy, causing Baek Ain's Innate Skill to be triggered.
'I wouldn't do that if I were you.'
[Ding! Soul Protection(Unknown) activated]
'Welp, too late.' Baek Ain shrugged helplessly.
'Wh-What is this! No, I can't die yet! I have a dream-!!!' Han Feng got swept by a golden light.
[Ding! The Soul Protection(Unknown) triggered]
[Ding! You have gained Han Feng's memory and some of his skills]
"Aih, I want to interrogate him first, though." A sigh escaped Baek Ain's mouth as he watched the system panel.
Ting!
[Jade-like Enhancement]
"They chased me already? As expected of Dou Venerate." Baek Ain pushed away the sound wave with his palm and breathed out.
The Golden Crow's Possession had long deactivated when he ran away from the three Dou Venerate, making him weaker than before.
Surrounded by them would cause Baek AIn a headache.
'No, I still have that.' Baek Ain's eyes glowed with dim divine light.
The burly Dou Venerate arrived and said, "You killed Han Feng this time."
"Qinghe promised Han Feng could create some pills for me, but you actually killed him."
"Kid, I'll take your life as compensation."
"You said kill that, kill this. And I'm still kicking healthy here." Baek Ain rolled his eyes. "Come on, show me the power of 5-Star Dou Venerate."
The burly Dou Venerate transformed again, appearing more draconic this time. He looked at Baek Ain like a predator and let out a mighty roar.
ROAR!
ROAR!!
"I also have something similar." Baek Ain didn't want to lose and activated Howl of Sovereign White Tiger.
The dragon and tiger roar clashed, causing the air to shake violently.
The flute-wielding Dou Venerate frowned and started playing his music, creating a wind dragon to help his ally.
BOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOOOOM!!
The shockwave washed over the area, flattening the mountain and sweeping a lake dry.
A storm brewed in the sky as Baek Ain's body was "slowly." covered with Golden Flame again. He almost used all the saved Golden Crow's Possession in the Revolver Skill, leaving two rounds behind for emergency.
In this one minute, Baek Ain would try to finish everything.
CLANK!
Baek Ain swung his blade and felt the burly Dou Venerate's dragon scales like a metal plate, but he kept pushing.
Blade Intent and Spatial Energy swirled, penetrating through the scales.
CLANK! BAM!
Baek Ain kicked the burly Dou Venerate's knee and used Four Extreme Arts to instill internal damage.
BAM!
Baek Ain sacrificed his left ear and advanced,
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
The burly Dou Venerate and Baek Ain traded blows across the Southern Region, stopping at the gloomy-looking ravine.
"Brat, be grateful. I, Long Chen, personally will take your life." The burly Dou Venerate roared at him.
Baek Ain smirked and returned, "Aww, the big boy has a name."
"Hmph!" Long Chen swung his fist, creating a small wormhole and intense energy.
Baek Ain didn't dodge and let the fist punch through his upper left chest, locking it there.
"Gotcha." Baek Ain said to Long Chen.
"Even if you use the Spatial Movement, you cannot run."
Long Chen frowned and said, "Like you could do anything about that."
"Hahaha, of course. I can." Baek Ain laughed as a violent Divine Golden Flame burst from his body, spreading to a twenty-meter radius.
"Seventh Stage: Yellow Spring Ashes!"
A terrifying force exploded and covered everything within the Yellow Spring Ashes Domain, burning Long Chen's tough skin and flesh.
"RELEASE ME THIS ONCE!" Long Chen felt the force and wanted to escape this weird domain.
"Let's die together, shall we?" Baek Ain returned instead.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
The ravine exploded alongside the Yellow Spring Ashes Domain, creating a massive dent over a five kilometers radius. At the center, a young man with an unsightly appearance stood firmly.
COUGH! COUGH!
[Ding! Last Man Standing is activated]
[Ding! You have killed 5-Star Dou Venerate]
The flute-wielding Dou Venerate and Xiao Long descended from the sky with fearful expressions.
"Let's continue!" Baek Ain greeted them with a bloody grin.
The flute-wielding Dou Venerate shook his head and commented, "You are nothing but a breathing corpse after killing Long Chen."
"He's the son of 9th Rank Magical Beast: Earth-Stranding Dragon."
"Even if you kill us right now, you cannot escape the Venerable Earth Dragon's Madness."
Baek Ain concentrated the Golden Flame on the tip of his finger and pointed at the remaining Dou Venerates. "Golden Annihilation."
The flute-wielding Dou Venerate fought back, but the strength behind Baek Ain's Golden Annihilation was too much. And let's not mention Xiao Long, who just entered 1-Star Dou Venerate Realm.
[You have killed 4-Star Dou Venerate]
[You have killed 1-Star Dou Venerate]
[Danger! Danger! Danger!] A notification alerted Baek Ain's mind.
[A Half-Saint will ill intention is approaching host]
The space above Baek Ain was torn into pieces, revealing a burly-looking elderly with short white hair and a grizzly-like beard.
"Are you the one who killed my son?" He said while gazing at Baek Ain coldly.
"He deserved it." Baek Ain's current appearance is no different than that of a bloody mummy.
Venerable Earth Dragon humphed and said, "Don't resist brat. I'll bring you to my realm and torture you to death!"
"I'll make you regret offending Half-Saint."
"What if I want to resist?" Baek Ain gripped the handle of Severed Light and pointed at the Venerable Earth-Dragon. "Who in the right mind would surrender and get tortured willingly!"
"Sorry, old man. I'm not a Masochist."
Venerable Earth Dragon laughed and indifferently added, "Like you have an option."
"Earth Dragon's Claw."
[Perfect Parry]
Clank!
BOOOOOOOOM!
Baek Ain felt his hand on the verge of breaking but endured it. He landed two hundred meters away and kneeled unwillingly.
Crack! Kacha!
The blade in Baek Ain's hands shattered into a thousand pieces, leaving only the handle.
"You can take my Earth Dragon's Claw? Not bad, not bad." Venerable Earth Dragon said in admiration. "How about this?"
He sent another attack, which was two times stronger than the previous one.
Baek Ain closed his eyes and employed the strongest Blade Intent he could release, slashing through Venerable Earth Dragon's attack.
Venerable Earth Dragon's eyes widened in shock because this kid somehow resisted another attack.
"TAKE THIS ONE THEN!" An evil gaze landed on Baek Ain's body.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOOM!
Baek Ain endured thirteen attacks and used almost everything in his arsenal. He gritted his teeth in pain and sensed Venerable Earth Dragon's Spatial Strength rip him apart.
[Last Man Standing is activated]
[Last Man Standing has upgraded]
[Last Man Standing(B) >>> Last Man Standing(A)]
'Why are you persistent?' A melodious voice suddenly appeared in Baek Ain's head.
It was a soft voice filled with confusion.
'I want to protect my loved ones. Is there something wrong with that?'
'You loved them, didn't you? You even fought Old Ground Demon Ghost to win over Black-Corner Region.'
'Yes, I loved them with all my heart.'
'I know.' The soft voice responded shyly. 'I have been watching you all this time.'
'Will you give me the same love back if we know each other more?'
'After all, you proposed to me first?'
Baek Ain couldn't help but smile, 'Then I'll take the responsibility.'
'You have made a vow with me. I'll take my payment later. Now rest! you must have been tired.' The voice revealed a hint of worry and compassion.
Baek Ain snapped and felt his eyelid become heavy.
He stumbled down, but a black-haired beauty in a red dress appeared and caught him immediately.
"How reckless." The beauty pouted while patting Baek Ain's white hair gently.
Venerable Earth Dragon frowned and questioned, "Who are you?"
"Hand over that kid to me, or maybe even yourself. I don't mind having another wife to create a better child than Long Chen."
The black-haired beauty gazed coldly at Venerable Earth Dragon and returned, "You want to take me as your wife?"
"You're not qualified."
"Under this heaven, I have one and only husband."
"I have vowed my life to him, watching him grow in dismay and happiness." The black-haired beauty said in amazement.
"Yet you dare to intercept his greatness." She releases intense pressure from her body.
A pressure that makes any Magical Beast tremble in fear.
If Baek Ain is conscious, he would realize this pressure came from Behemoth's Bloodline, which is slightly different from his.
As winds danced under the black-haired beauty's order, a pair of red energy wings materialized.
"I, Baek Cai Lin, will not accept this."
"This vengeance shall be mine!"
BOOOOM!
Under the trembling sky, a queen has finally awakened.
