On the gray-black soil grew patches of unknown withered yellow plants, which, due to their uneven distribution, looked like a dirty, crumpled, balding old carpet.
"Whoosh——"
Accompanied by a sharp sound cutting through the air, a figure swiftly flew in from afar, skimming the ground.
His speed was astonishingly fast, so fast that a magnificent white airwave ford directly in the air, creating a deep trench on the ground wherever it passed.
But as fast as he was, soone was even faster.
Behind the white airwave, a stream of light closely pursued.
Each flicker of the stream of light drastically shortened the distance between itself and the airwave.
After a few flickers, the stream of light had already arrived directly above the airwave.
"Swish——"
An energy blade light, hundreds of ters long, shot out from the stream of light, slashing straight towards the figure at the front end of the airwave.
"Boom!"
The rapidly extending airwave was abruptly cut off by the energy blade light, exploding into a small white mushroom cloud on the ground.
A figure erged a bit awkwardly from the mushroom cloud—a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance and a sowhat sullen deanor.
The middle-aged man barely escaped from the center of the explosion and quickly ca to a halt not far away.
He slowly raised his head, seeing a bald, muscular man with a blue scorpion tattoo on his face.
The bald, muscular man was clad in rough, all-black armor-like battle attire, and his physique was nearly twice the size of an average person. He casually held a reddish alloy battle knife as large as a door panel on his shoulder.
He looked down at the middle-aged man below with a lazy yet sowhat nacing smile, and spoke: "Friend from Ancestor Star, leave that El Color Gold ore, and I won’t hurt you."
The stopped middle-aged man was evidently far weaker in power compared to the bald, muscular man, the latter exuding an aura as vast and terrifying as the mighty ocean.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a mont before quickly making a decision.
He reached into his chest and slowly pulled out a rock the size of an adult’s fist.
The surface of this rock was gray and inconspicuous, but in the places where the surface stone skin had peeled off, a beautiful colorful light was revealed.
The bald, muscular man looked pleased upon seeing the rock, nodding as he said, "Very well, hand it over to now, and I’ll let you leave imdiately."
The middle-aged man didn’t speak, rely nodding.
Then he took the rock in both hands and stepped toward the airborne bald, muscular man.
The bald, muscular man watched the middle-aged man approach indifferently, waiting until he was about to co near.
Suddenly, the latter flung the rock to the side with a swift motion.
At the sa ti as the rock was thrown, the expression on the previously cautious and tense middle-aged man abruptly changed, becoming ferocious.
The whole man charged at the bald, muscular man like a beast.
"Heh——"
The bald, muscular man sneered, "I knew you weren’t being honest."
"I was trying to be nice, and now you leave no choice but to be ruthless..."
A vicious light flashed in the bald, muscular man’s eyes. The scorpion tattoo on his face seed to co alive with his expression’s changes.
A vast stream of light surged from within him, and the red battle knife on his shoulder awakened like an enraged dragon.
"Boom!"
The bald, muscular man swung the knife forcefully forward.
The blade light surged out like a galaxy waterfall, sweeping across and striking the charging middle-aged man solidly.
The middle-aged man didn’t even have ti to utter a sound as he exploded with a "boom."
The bald, muscular man didn’t even have ti to sneer disdainfully before he realized that no flesh or blood splattered from the explosion. Instead, it turned into a large mass of thick, black liquid.
This black liquid spread with incredible speed, covering the bald, muscular man’s head and body in a flash, leaving him no ti to react.
Then, like a living creature, it desperately burrowed into his body.
"What is this?!"
The unprepared bald, muscular man was both shocked and angry, his entire energy surging, forming a substantive blue fla on the surface of his body.
Nurous dazzling star points erged from his body, firmly resisting the intrusion of the black, viscous liquid.
As the two sides were locked in a stalemate.
Suddenly, a figure silently appeared behind the bald, muscular man.
This figure was pitch-black, without any features or hair.
He stood behind the bald, muscular man, his expression calm as he spread his limbs.
Then his entire body split directly in the middle, revealing a multitude of tentacle-like structures from within.
In an instant, these black tentacles wrapped around and enveloped the bald, muscular man.
The newcor embraced the bald, muscular man in a "friendly" gesture from behind.
Following that, under the bald, muscular man’s horrified gaze, more and more black tentacles erged...
Until he was entirely enveloped and wholly absorbed into the figure’s embrace.
After devouring the bald, muscular man completely, a large mass of black liquid morphed continuously into irregular shapes.
Underneath the viscous black liquid, sothing seed to be struggling to break free.
The process was reminiscent of a snake swallowing its prey whole.
Before long, the commotion within the black liquid finally subsided entirely.
The black liquid assud a form resembling a human once again.
