481: Chapter 479 Slaying!
"No!!"
A shrill roar pierced the sky.
Huo Gui's buttocks exploded, and before the flesh and blood could even splatter, they were turned into charred remains by the lightning.
He teleported to the edge of the sealed area, his head spinning as he collapsed to the ground.
At this point, after the cost of continuous space-travel, Huo Gui's health points were nearly depleted, and his Mental Energy was overextended.
His consciousness was hazy, his eyes bloodshot. He struggled to stand and stumbled forward a few steps, only to be blocked, ending up sprawled against what felt like a transparent wall.
Staring fixedly at Yan Guofa on the bench ahead, he growled, "Quick... save me!!"
Yan Guofa slowly lifted his eyelids and said softly, "I saved your life from Chu Xuan's hands back then; I already gave you a chance."
Though separated by over a hundred meters, Yan Guofa's voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, yet Huo Gui heard it clearly.
He froze, then suddenly realized something, his voice full of disbelief. "You're not... on our side? But you've already chosen the Divine Light World; how could you possibly turn back?"
"Why do you think I, who regained my youth, have become like this?"
The corner of Yan Guofa's mouth curled slightly. "Me? I was born in this world, and I grew up in this world. Even if I don't belong to this era... this is my home, the place where my heart finds peace."
Huo Gui screamed hoarsely, "You old geezer, this world is beyond saving! Even if there were a hundred of you, you couldn't save it. Without transcendence, you'll only end up buried with it!!"
"I have done all I can. If it's still not enough, then I shall be buried with it..." Yan Guofa murmured softly, closing his eyes and falling silent.
"I have seen the end countless times! This world has no future. Transcendents will always be one step behind the descending Specters. You can only watch helplessly as this world is devoured by The Gloom! You can't do it, Yang Yu can't do it, the Purifiers can't do it, you all..."
Huo Gui roared through gritted teeth, but suddenly hearing the crackle of lightning, his scalp went numb. With unprecedented fear in his eyes, he tried to teleport away again.
But with a flash, he reappeared in the same spot, sprawled on the ground.
"Gaga! Those who harm my Sky-Shattering Thunder Roc shall be executed, no matter how far away they are!"
A rooster with most of its feathers fallen off descended from the sky. Its sharp claws pounced, tearing Huo Gui into pieces as blood splattered instantly.
"Gaga! I'm simply too strong!" the big rooster crowed excitedly, then took to the sky again, heading straight for the center of the battlefield.
"Human pet, Lord Peng is here to help you!"
Gaga Chicken arcs of electricity flickered around it as it thundered toward the center of the battlefield. Though its wings were bald, its speed hadn't decreased much.
While still some distance away, dozens of lightning bolts surged forth, enveloping the White Tiger in a continuous crackle of sound.
"FastAPI Crack-Sky Thunder Astral Claw!"
Huge, sharp claws descended, and a burst of shattered crystals flew into the air.
"Get lost!!"
The White Tiger suddenly turned its head. Though its swipe missed, driven by its Killing Instinct, it suddenly spat out a crystal sword.
With one strike, Gaga Chicken's thigh was pierced. Then, the White Tiger swung its arm violently, punching it away. With a wail, only a pile of chicken feathers was left on the ground.
"Slash!"
Chu Xuan waved his hand, sending a Slash flying to strike the White Tiger's head. He then teleported to its side and delivered a heavy Slash to its back, trailing a shower of sparks.
The Fire of Nirvana spread along the wound.
Just as Chu Xuan was about to follow up, dozens of crystal swords shot toward him.
"Is that all? It seems you can only trigger one Slash at a time now..."
The White Tiger laughed as it pounced. At this moment, its health points were down to 2000, and the crystals condensing around its body grew even thicker.
Not only that, but the strength and speed the White Tiger was now displaying were gradually becoming overwhelming for Chu Xuan.
Furthermore, crystal spikes like swords jutted from its chest, back, and joints, their sharp edges glinting with a cold light as they shot toward Chu Xuan from time to time.
"[Bloody Battle] and [Mystic Crystal Body Forging] are indeed quite troublesome..."
"And the Domain [Prison Lock Dragon]... as the White Tiger's strength attribute surges, it has already exceeded the scope of my [Unconstrained] immunity to restraints..."
Chu Xuan panted heavily, his body covered in wounds, and he could even faintly feel some restriction on his movements.
Fortunately, his health points remained above three thousand, not yet meeting the trigger conditions for the opponent's Strong Plunder skill.
"Almost there..." Chu Xuan kept a constant eye on the White Tiger's spirituality value. Under the continuous combat and the damage and burning from the Fire of Nirvana, the opponent's spirituality value had fallen to just over 1200 points.
Meanwhile, Chu Xuan still had over 15,000 spirituality value remaining.
Inside his body, the Slashes generated using 40 spirituality value each remained at a count of 100, held in reserve.
The battlefield roared incessantly as the two sides locked into a war of attrition.
A few more minutes passed. When the White Tiger had 1900 health points and just over 1100 spirituality value left, it suddenly let out a sinister laugh:
"You should be able to see through my various stats. I bet you have some trump card left, don't you? Planning to one-shot me?!"
The White Tiger suddenly paused and violently clawed at its own stomach.
Chu Xuan's eyes narrowed.
He immediately raised a hand and pointed.
"Slash!"
A chorus of ringing hums erupted!
A hundred Slashes thundered forth in a concentrated volley!!!"
