Chapter 98: The Taste of Death
Chapter 98: The Taste of Death
Alton and Callie, who heard Alu's name, couldn't help but squint.
They naturally also know the name called Alu.
If Alu only killed Arlo who was ranked fourteen and the unknown Krinn, they wouldn't be too wary of him. The problem is, Alu also defeated Henn who has almost the same strength as them.
Even if Alu defeated Henn by despicable methods, they still didn't dare underestimate him. After all, just despicable methods would not be enough to defeat someone like Henn who possessed extremely strong physical strength. A person also needs strength that is just as strong.
"Hmph." Callie snorted. "I can't believe he's that strong."
Callie snorted because she heard people say that Alu might be a very strong dark horse like Elizabeth.
Only one Elizabeth had made people with strong backgrounds like themselves unhappy. If there were others, then what was the use of their background.
"Let's attack him together. I can't believe the two of us can't beat him." Callie said to Alton.
"Mm." Alton nodded.
Whooss... Whooss...
After that, they immediately made their move.
They move separately. Alton moved right while Callie moved left.
When they separated, they released an even stronger aura as the Yin-Yang Symbol and all their spiritual sources were released.
And they also used mysterious techniques to increase their strength.
The mysterious technique they used also gave them five thousand additional spiritual sources.
Moreover, their spiritual source was already completely green.
But even with the addition of five thousand spiritual sources, their current spiritual sources only number twenty-two thousand spiritual sources, which means that their original spiritual source only amounts to seventeen thousand spiritual sources.
With the peak cultivation of the second layer of the Life and Death stage, the number of such spiritual sources was truly astonishing.
If it weren't for the cultivation resources they got on the holy path, there would be no way they could reach such an amount.
In reality, even the five strongest geniuses, who had already reached the pinnacle of the second layer of the Life and Death stage before they entered the holy path, their spiritual source at that time was actually a little lacking compared to the two of them.
With twenty-two thousand spiritual sources, they were truly like giants among the cultivators of the Life and Death stage.
Of course, those five strongest geniuses also had their own luck on the holy path so that they could maintain their positions. Otherwise, they will actually fall behind and be surpassed by the people who were below them.
Perhaps one of those killed by Elizabeth didn't manage to raise her cultivation foundation on this holy path so he ended up being killed by someone with a lower cultivation than him.
Bang... Bang...
As Alton and Callie flew toward Alu, they rocked space wherever they passed.
Some of the people who happened to be on the path they were on would be sent flying just because of the gusts of wind generated by their speed.
It's just that, while their strength left those watching in awe, Alu didn't look serious when he saw their strength.
He even shook his head with a bored expression.
"Looks like I still have to wait for a stronger enemy." Alu said in a low voice.
Anton and Callie naturally saw the look of disdain on Alu's face, and this made them really angry.
Who are they? When have they been belittled like that?
"Brat, don't be so cocky. Wait for me to beat you up, and see if you can still put on an expression like that." Shouted Anton.
While saying that, a spear suddenly appeared in Anton's hand. And he immediately threw the spear at Alu.
On the left, Callie pulled out a bow and three arrows. And she used her bow to shoot the three arrows simultaneously.
The speed of the spear thrown by Anton and the three arrows that Callie fired was unimaginably fast. They were much faster than Anton and Callie. Ordinary third layer Life and Death stage experts were definitely unable to avoid them.
In an instant, the spear and three arrows arrived in front of Alu.
Of course, even if it was Alu, it would be impossible for him to overcome those spear and three arrow attacks without taking action.
He took out a small knife when the spear and three arrows arrived in front of him.
Whooss...
He then slashed the small knife in his hand towards them.
The speed of Alu's hand as he slashed the small knife he was holding was much faster than the speed of the spear and three arrows that were heading his way.
People couldn't even see Alu's hand movements. All they could see was the shadow of the knife moving like the letter Z piercing past the spear and three arrows.
After that, when the spear and three arrows finally reached Alu's clothes, they suddenly shattered into pieces.
Bruak...
Countless pieces of iron scattered all over the place, making the eyes of those who saw them widened.
Even Alton and Callie were shocked when they saw their weapons being destroyed just like that.
Their previous attack was only to test Alu's strength. They had hoped that their attack would not be able to hurt Alu.
But to destroy their weapons, it was completely inconceivable. After all, the weapons they were using were spiritual weapons made of extremely strong materials. Even with their strength, it wouldn't be easy to destroy them.
It was as difficult as an ordinary human trying to break a rock.
But Alu can do it easily.
"Is this all you can do." Alu smiled sarcastically as he looked at them.
"Now I'll show you what I can do."
After Alu said that,
Boom...
His body suddenly erupted with an unimaginably powerful aura. Even Alton and Callie's combined aura seemed insignificant when compared to the aura exuded by Alu.
The sky trembled as countless spiritual sources surged from Alu's body. As the fire lotus symbol appeared on Alu's forehead, Alton and Callie who were not too far from Alu were immediately pushed several tens of meters back by the shockwave that erupted from Alu's body.
Shock filled their eyes as they saw the twenty-five thousand-plus spiritual sources behind Alu.
Shua... Shua...
They then saw two beautiful black wings suddenly appear on Alu's back, and when the two wings flapped, Alu suddenly disappeared from their sight.
"Shit..."
The first to notice Alu's existence was Alton because he could feel Alu suddenly appearing right behind him.
He couldn't help but curse as he looked at Alu.
Two spears then appeared in his hand as he turned back.
As he turned around, he saw flames that looked like waves of an ocean coming towards him.
"Don't think you can beat me with just this." He is screaming.
After saying that, he then swung the two spears in his hand towards the flames.
Normally, if he swung the spear towards the ocean, he could easily cut through the ocean.
However, when the two spears he was swinging entered the flames that had already arrived in front of him, he discovered that the flames had actually only split slightly.
"How could it be."
Alton's eyes widened when he saw that.
But he did not have time to think too much as the flames had already started touching his body.
"Damn... What kind of flame is this."
Alton was shocked when he found his skin burned immediately the moment they came into contact with the flames.
As his body sank deeper into the flames, Alton even felt an attack that the power of the flames shouldn't have.
His eyes saw the darkness that was trying to draw him into the flames, his mind tasted the death that made his will to fight fade, and his body felt a sense of destruction.
"I can't help it."
"Callie, help me." He screamed for help.
In fact, Callie had already unleashed several strikes before Alton asked he4 to.
She shot several arrows towards the flames, and each arrow she shot this time was actually over a hundred meters in size.
Xiu... Xiu... Xiu...
Even though the arrows she shot this time were enormous, their speed was actually a lot faster.
In just an instant, they reached the flames that were trying to engulf Alton.
Whooss...
The attacks Callie released this time were definitely no ordinary attacks as they could actually push Alu's flames back several meters.
Even though it was only pushed away by a few meters, it was enough for Alton to get out of the flames.
Whooss...
After exiting the flames, Alton immediately used his best ability to get away from the flames.
However, before he could go too far, a black arrow with flames on its tail suddenly appeared from within the flames, and it flew towards him at an unimaginable speed.
When Alton saw the black arrow, his body suddenly trembled violently while his heart almost stopped beating.
He suddenly felt a fear that he had never felt in his entire life.
It is a teste of death.
