"Hisss!"
Xu Shu gasped in cool air as he died once again, dissolved into chaos, and entered a higher-dinsional state.
This Edric truly had so skills, his lethality was astonishing. If they had been outside, he would have certainly been dood today.
But that was it!
There were no ’ifs’ here, this was the ruins!
After delivering a full-force blow to "kill" Xu Shu, Edric swiftly landed, his formidable aura rapidly receding as the surrounding flas cautiously withdrew.
Xu Shu observed closely and could clearly see that not only the ground was burning, but the three Curse Crystals inside Edric’s body were also afla!
Those fibrous materials, like pulverized egg yolks, began to reveal a burnt state, disappearing significantly.
As Edric’s aura stabilized again, five of the fibrous spirals within his Third-order Curse Crystals completely broke.
This was more than double the number broken before!
Xu Shu’s eyes brightened instantly.
Indeed, Edric’s condition was terrible; he was forcibly enhancing his strength montarily by deliberately dropping his rank.
Not only that, but it seed that the continuous forced rank promotion and releasing of high-lethality skills had put a great burden on him, causing his three firmly stable Curse Crystals to start wobbling!
In other words, Edric could maintain a strength level of 39.4 just a mont ago, but now, even if he stabilized, he would lose five levels, leaving him at 34.4!
This simple arithtic, Xu Shu could do, and he wouldn’t get it wrong.
"Almost there!"
Xu Shu quietly watched the fibrous spirals in Edric burn as he waited for his opponent’s aura to completely bottom out.
During this ti, Edric was striding towards Wei Wujiu and the others.
That troubleso human was finally taken care of—he was certain because he had reduced the opponent to ashes this ti—the last ti must have been because the blood hadn’t burnt away completely, allowing him to be revived by so special thod.
Edric was certain of this!
Now, he wanted to take advantage of this mont while his aura was still fairly stable to quickly kill the remaining three and restore his own strength.
After the recent battle, he lost the interest in toying with the three and quickly walked to the stone door, saliva almost uncontrollably drooling down.
Seeing the situation turning dire, the three hurriedly ran for their lives.
Edric raised a hand, pointed, and the fastest runner, Butcher Zhang, suddenly sorsaulted from mid-air and fell.
His upper body, midsection, and lower body instantly split apart, turning into slice-like segnts, and his protected intestines spilled onto the ground.
Seeing this, Qin Yue’s face turned pale with fear; she transford into a foggy ghostly figure and madly fled towards the cliff below.
Edric took a deep breath, slightly sweating, then raised his hand and pointed again.
Crack!
A loud explosion echoed through the air, and Qin Yue slamd against the wall, her body riddled with holes, appearing as if perforated by gunfire.
"AAAAAH!"
The long-feigning-dead Wei Wujiu, knowing he couldn’t escape death, burst out shouting, suddenly transforming into a bizarrely shaped fish-headed humanoid beast resembling a large dog, howling and sprinting on all fours toward the other side.
Edric exhaled again and pointed once more.
Whoosh!
Wei Wujiu barely twisted his body, but directly twisted off his lower half, reverted to his human form, and a slash appeared from his left waist to his right shoulder, splitting his entire body in two!
In just three gestures, he had completely crushed the three fleeing Second-order Transcendents.
Having done all this, Edric approached the nearest, Qin Yue.
He wiped the sweat from his face; amidst piercing screams, he cut open Qin Yue’s skin, lifting a still-beating heart connected by blood vessels.
Inhaling greedily, Edric grinned, "Do you know? The heart must be completely fresh, and you must eat it bite by bite while the person is still alive to guarantee the perfect taste and potency."
"Hehehe!" Qin Yue let out a despairing and fearful hiss, her body quivering slightly.
Edric placed a hand on her and said, "Don’t struggle, just enjoy death. Rember, you are not dying; you are becoming a part of , offering a power for the birth of a god. You should feel honored!"
After speaking, his attitude reverent, he seed to close his eyes and mutter to himself, then opened his mouth, ready to savor the first juicy bite.
Xu Shu placed a hand on Edric’s jaw, twisted it, and said, "Don’t struggle, I’ll send you to et your god now. I’ve taken your crystals, offering a power for the most powerful to be born. You should feel honored."
Edric looked at his twisted-off jaw, his punctured head, his excavated heart.
After a mont, he uttered an indistinct sentence, "I can’t understand, why?"
Why are you here?
Why are you still alive?
Why was I killed?
Edric very much wanted to ask these three questions.
But he had no chance now.
Xu Shu’s timing was impeccable.
This mont was precisely when Edric’s forcibly enhanced strength had exhausted itself, and he was at his weakest, when he had just successfully captured his "prey" and was about to indulge, when he was earnestly praising his own god, relaxing both body and mind.
Edric, consud by fury, even thought of burning his remaining erosive spirals once more, to reach the peak again, attempting to counter-kill Xu Shu.
