Chapter 537: 【405】Death of the Fifth Rank! Seraphim Descend (Vote for Monthly Tickets, Recommend)_1
“Boom!”
The dazzling burst of light rippled and cracked the center of the battlefield.
Huang Shiqiang’s eyes were bloodshot as his chest seemed to have drawn in an infinite amount of air, swelling up.
The next second he roared ferociously!
It was as if a column of fire burst forth from his mouth, slicing the sword light in front of him in two.
However, the moment the sword light was shaken apart, Pei Jinye’s figure brazenly charged in.
...
His powerful physique directly crushed the surrounding air, even dimming the redness of the flames a bit.
Huang Shiqiang’s eyes widened on the spot.
In his entire field of vision, as Pei Jinye charged over, the entire space that he had sealed with Sealing Objects seemed to tremble.
Visible to the naked eye, the rolling currents ferociously spread out in all directions, causing stones and sand within tens of meters to vibrate and rise due to the impact of his brute physical strength!
“Hisss!”
A sharp and urgent roar.
Huang Shiqiang felt as if he had been violently struck by a high-speed train.
Even with his more than thirty years of tempered body, he felt his internal organs trembling; if not for his Extraordinary Abilities being somewhat special, he would probably have capsized in the gutter by now!
With a loud shout, Huang Shiqiang and Pei Jinye were locked in a stalemate, and the veins on the arm holding the sword bulged and pulsed violently.
“Get out of my way!!!”
The two clashed sword against knife, both fighting desperately.
Pei Jinye took a step back.
His eyes were cold and indifferent.
Under his gaze, the attribute points of spiritual power atop the opponent’s head were still a big question mark.
“Rise!”
Huang Shiqiang slowly seemed to push Pei Jinye’s sword away from in front of him.
But the very next second, without giving Huang Shiqiang any time to rejoice, Pei Jinye erupted with even more ferocious strength.
“This! How is this possible!”
Huang Shiqiang was stunned.
Does this guy have endless strength or what?
They had been fighting each other for so long, and he had already felt the drain on his physical strength, yet his opponent seemed to be unfathomably deep.
Is that possible?
They clashed many times, and he clearly sensed that the mysterious man in the mask in front of him was not a Fifth Rank Extraordinary!
Even if his cultivation was weaker than his own, why did the strength he showed make him completely incapable of prevailing?
He didn’t understand!
He couldn’t figure it out!
He couldn’t accept it!
Driven by frustration and embarrassment, Huang Shiqiang knew he was less powerful and decisively chose to retreat, swiftly backing away.
However, as soon as he retreated, Pei Jinye’s momentum instantly soared.
His hands wielded a series of sword shadows, a fierce aura directly locking onto Huang Shiqiang.
Huang Shiqiang’s face changed drastically.
Is this guy a genius in battle?
He had just revealed an extremely weak opening in his momentum, and immediately the opponent seized upon it…
“Puch!”
Blood spurted wildly.
Huang Shiqiang grunted, forcefully twisted his body, and, with a swing of his knife, forced Pei Jinye’s sword to the side.
But in an instant, Pei Jinye’s figure rushed forward again.
Huang Shiqiang felt a chill in his heart.
He swore he had never seen someone fight so madly, constantly giving him a heart-stopping ferocity.
The two fought from the mountainside to the cliff’s edge, each clash a full-powered strike.
In such combat without outside interference, even a slight error could cost one’s life.
About this.
Huang Shiqiang had a profound experience.
He could clearly feel that his right arm was already injured to the bone, worsening with each strike.
“Damn it! You deserve to die!!”
A maniacal roar erupted from Huang Shiqiang.
Blood also spilled from beneath Pei Jinye’s mask.
It had to be said, Huang Shiqiang was the most tenacious among the Fifth Rank Extraordinaries that he had faced.
But to Huang Shiqiang, Pei Jinye felt even more difficult to handle!
Feeling his right arm nearing the end of its fighting capacity, Huang Shiqiang’s expression shifted subtly, wielding the knife in his left hand and, at the cost of possibly having his right arm chopped off by Pei Jinye, he burst forth with all his might and pierced through Pei Jinye’s seemingly indestructible flesh.
The sound of bones breaking crackled like firecrackers, making it impossible to tell whose bones snapped more.
Pei Jinye’s mask was broken at one corner, revealing a pale face stained with blood.
Huang Shiqiang was no better off, and, in fact, his situation was even more gruesome.
In a bout of desperation.
Pei Jinye controlled his vitality to reverse, while blood poured from Huang Shiqiang’s mouth like it was free.
“You can’t kill me!”
The blood-spewing Huang Shiqiang laughed hideously with a terrifying look on his face.
The spiritual power value above his head displayed—
[1567-1567]
Pei Jinye freed his hand.
With a savage face, he reached out to strike down.
“Enter the dream.”
An unexpected turn.
The hypnosis failed.
Huang Shiqiang let out a roar, and a sound of fabric tearing came from his body.
Turns out he had another Sealing Object on him to block the mental hypnosis.
Pei Jinye showed no signs of panic.
His sword lay across that broad hefty knife, sparking countless sparks as it grinded against the blade.
“Ahhhh!”
Huang Shiqiang clutched tightly onto Pei Jinye.
No matter how Pei Jinye attacked, he wouldn’t let go.
“If I’m going to die, you’re going down with me!”
After laughing grotesquely with mouthfuls of blood, he embraced Pei Jinye and plunged towards the cliff edge.
“Bang!”
Falling from a hundred meters high, both of their bodies were crushed into a blur of flesh and bone.
Huang Shiqiang’s entire right shoulder was reduced to bare bones, half of his face was scraped bloody and raw.
Spitting blood, he looked at Pei Jinye, who was like a puddle of mud, and laughed viciously.
Struggling to rise, he used his knife as a staff and walked towards Pei Jinye.
But suddenly, the malevolent smile froze on his face.
Because within his vision, Pei Jinye who had turned into a pool of mud was… undergoing Flesh Rebirth!
“You!”
The mask on Pei Jinye’s face had already shattered somewhere during the tumble down the mountainside.
However, the naturally cautious Pei Jinye still appeared with a different false face.
“You!”
Huang Shiqiang’s face was full of shock and anger.
He simply couldn’t have imagined that Pei Jinye’s talent was Flesh Rebirth.
To be honest, he had clashed with Pei Jinye for so long, and his swordsmanship was indeed explosive.
It was indeed respectable to some extent… Thus he thought Pei Jinye’s extraordinary talent was somehow related to Instrument · Sword.
But now…
“Flesh Rebirth?”
Thump!
The steel boots attached to the armor, carrying the fierce sound of thunder and wind, cruelly kicked against the blade that Huang Shiqiang desperately put in front of himself to block the attack.
“Bang!”
Behind him, the mountain wall was hit hard by Huang Shiqiang, raising a cloud of dust.
“Heave… Heave… You are the most demonic existence I’ve ever seen…”
Huang Shiqiang swung his left hand holding the blade to chop.
Pei Jinye’s fist easily struck out, yet even after Flesh Rebirth, his physical strength had weakened somewhat.
But at least…
Against the present Huang Shiqiang, it was still more than enough!
After an intense scuffle.
The amount of spiritual power above Huang Shiqiang’s head had sharply decreased to below 1000.
Psychic Storm, activate!
Vitality fluctuating!
Huang Shiqiang forcibly held back the blood in his mouth, but Pei Jinye landed a Sticking to the Mountain strike, which forced out a mouthful of blood without being swallowed.
“Damn it… I can’t believe… Ah!”
Huang Shiqiang, spitting blood, charged forward, his right arm’s stark white bones stabbing towards Pei Jinye like a Bone Sword.
“Crack!”
The sound of snapping was clear and crisp!
Several new cuts appeared on Pei Jinye’s body, but they quickly regenerated.
This scene sent Huang Shiqiang into an even deeper despair, immediately followed by another kick that sent him flying again.
In the many years he had been working, he’d handled countless tasks, it was several hundred if not thousands, including many large and small battles.
He had fought against countless utterly vicious people.
But never once had he felt such despair as he did now.
A large hand reached out and pressed down.
Huang Shiqiang did all he could to dodge.
But he still couldn’t avoid it and was firmly grabbed.
Demon Seed!
…
Below the cliff.
Pei Jinye got up with an expressionless face, and all his wounds were healing at the fastest speed.
He took big gulps of Potion.
Karmic Fire eradicated all the blood around him, his expression exceedingly grave.
“Although it’s hard to say the average Extraordinary Fifth Rank Attribute Values, this guy must have at least 5000 points in spiritual power… as I thought… with my current abilities I simply can’t kill him.”
Pei Jinye felt somewhat regretful.
This battle had cost him dearly.
Just the loss of nine hundred Attribute Points alone had been abruptly reduced to under a hundred points.
It was also lucky that he was able to wear down his opponent.
In fact, Pei Jinye had also been fortunate.
If it hadn’t been for his diverse range of skills, relying solely on Instrument · Sword Level 4 extraordinary abilities, he probably wouldn’t have been a match for this member of the Huang Family and Fifth Rank Extraordinary.
He was just a hair’s breadth away from triggering the dead man’s switch of extraordinary abilities.
“Just a bit more.”
Pei Jinye thought himself lucky.
He had come so far with great difficulty, and if a setback brought everything back to zero, such a feeling… was hard not to drive a person mad!
He looked up.
Huang Shiqiang was still resisting the Demon Seed.
Pei Jinye didn’t want to Devour him…
But unfortunately, his current spiritual power was far from sufficient!
So he waited.
Either his own spiritual power would increase first, and he would immediately act to Devour.
Or now was the time to plant the Demon Seed.
Honestly speaking, a member of the Huang Family with Fifth Rank Extraordinary abilities…
Controlling him was far more valuable than killing him!
Once he killed Huang Shiqiang, the Federation would sense his death… For such Fifth Rank Extraordinary beings, the Federation always had them under covert surveillance.
It could very likely attract stronger figures.
With his current capabilities, if he encountered any… he would have no choice but to reset back to zero.
“I… it is… so frustrating… ah…”
Huang Shiqiang’s eyes were bloodshot, looking like a blood-soaked man, struggling to speak.
Just when Pei Jinye thought the Demon Seed had successfully taken root, an inexplicable force suddenly burst from within Huang Shiqiang’s body, and the whole person exploded into a mist of blood.
“Damn it!”
Pei Jinye’s face changed slightly.
He didn’t even want to think about what had just happened.
His figure flickered immediately.
Almost instantly, the entire space he had just been in was enveloped by a mysterious force, and countless sharp auras seemed capable of annihilating everything.
“Got away?”
A tremendously powerful figure slowly took shape in the void, with a deep gaze scanning the surroundings.
If Pei Jinye were here, he would have recognized the arrival was none other than the famed Seraphim!
Slowly raising a hand, a Blood Bead that had been immersed in the soil flew up in front of him.
His fingertip lightly touched it.
He gained information.
“Huang Shiqiang… a swordsman of the Huang Family, Fifth Rank Extraordinary… was actually forced to trigger a seal.”
The Seraphim looked up, slightly surprised.
“Who exactly… is targeting the Western Continent?”
