Chapter 379: A Thousand Cuts, A Thousand Slices, You Can

Just as Jiang Li was waiting to die.

"You…"

"What did you do?"

When Jiang Li opened his eyes, he saw the Rabbit Goddess staring at him in terror, stepping backward, her face filled with fear.

The remaining three black-clad brutes were much the same, all staring at Jiang Li with utter dread.

Acting?

Impossible, all the skeletons have already returned to their own world.

But why would they react like this?

Jiang Li also looked at the Rabbit Goddess and the others, puzzled.

Suddenly, Jiang Li's mind cleared.

He had come to Wang Cheng; Lans must have been protecting him in secret.

"Maybe Lans intervened!"

He glanced around but saw no sign of Lans; yet he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Looks like I've got backup after all!"

Thinking this, he ignored the Rabbit Goddess and the two black-clad men, charging straight into the darkness toward a door.

Without hesitation, he pushed the door open—upon entering, he saw a scene that made his eyes bulge: Aldras had stripped off his clothes and was about to pounce.

Aldras stared at Jiang Li in shock.

"You! How is this possible?"

He knew the level of his men; from sensing Jiang Li's aura, he knew Jiang Li was as weak as an ant—and that's why he'd acted so carelessly.

Jiang Li did not hesitate.

He immediately activated the Ice Wheel and unleashed the Mighty Dragon Severing Slash.

Aldras, however, grew calm.

Facing the slash aimed at him, Aldras calmly lifted one hand and blocked it lightly.

A soft "po" echoed.

The once-invincible Pilian flew out through the window.

Jiang Li's heart jolted.

"What the fuck, is this even fair? Aldras is just a contestant in the Martial Arts Tournament—why is he this strong?"

Before Jiang Li could recover, he felt a mysterious force lock his entire body in place, pinning him against the wall, unable to move even a single finger.

At that moment, Jiang Li checked Aldras's level.

【Monster: Aldras】

【HP: 90 million】

【Attack: 90 million】

【Skills: Binding, Magic Immunity, Attack Speed Boost, Defense Boost, Gale, Berserk…】

Ninety million attack, a string of skills—though his level was invisible, these four stats alone crushed Jiang Li utterly.

"A creature as insignificant as you somehow made it to my face and ruined my plans!"

Aldras snarled.

"Come on, little one, come on!"

Aldras slapped Jiang Li's face.

Jiang Li felt overwhelming humiliation for the first time.

But he was powerless.

He had thought himself already strong.

Strong enough to dominate in certain areas.

Even after obtaining the Death-Seeing Eyes, he had once believed himself invincible.

But under absolute power, even if one can see the death points and death lines, one must still have the chance to act—otherwise, it's meaningless.

What could he do now?

Aldras, now calm, said: "Useless fools, couldn't even catch such a mere ant. But you've come to me yourself—how convenient!"

Aldras assumed Jiang Li had used some superior stealth technique to reach this point.
