Chapter 3984: Disdain

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The loud sound of blade clashing came. Su Xiao and Hao Chou slashed with long knives. No matter how you look at it, Hao Chou, who should have a larger body and strength reaching the limit, should have an advantage in this kind of clash. But after only three clashes, Hao Chou's entire right arm was numb, and he could only change from the heroic one-handed knife holding to cautious two-handed knife holding.

A feeling of this monster was uncontrollably born in Hao Chou's heart. You know, these were the feelings of his enemies in the past when facing him.

If Hao Chou's long knife is a combination of dominance + wild power, giving people a feeling of being unstoppable, then Su Xiao's blade technique is a combination of body training like wind and swiftness like a rainbow. Every move and every style looks ordinary, but it is actually simple and condensed, with hidden murderous intent.

Clang!

Su Xiao slashed heavily, and Hao Chou knelt on one knee with a thud. Although he wasn't injured, blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.

"Still watching the show!"

Hao Chou roared with blood splashing from the corners of his mouth. The Platinum Apostle behind him gave a dry laugh and stepped forward.

"All living things, sorrow and annihilation."

Phantoms of tens of thousands of people appeared behind the Platinum Apostle. These phantoms were sucked and squeezed together by a force, forming a distorted giant humanoid. Afterward, all the figures made painful wails.

Hum!!

The surrounding space trembled due to the wailing of all living things. Even for Su Xiao, whose soul strength reached 1500 points, his vision was filled with double images. Or rather, it was only because his soul strength had reached 1500 points that he merely felt dizzy; otherwise, his soul would have been shattered on the spot.

With a whoosh, the Platinum Apostle disappeared in place. Appearing again, she was in front of Su Xiao. This kind of outrageous speed only appeared on the Abyss Guard Captain in the previous confrontation.

The Platinum Apostle raised one hand, seemingly slow but fast, and pushed out with all her strength.

Crack, crack...

All the space passed by the palm was shattered. Why is this? The answer is that with the Platinum Apostle's strength, she naturally reached 800 points in strength, agility, and intelligence attributes, and she used this palm push under the activation of the "Fate Mark."

First is the effect of the "Fate Mark." The Platinum Apostle, who possesses this Forbidden Mark, has the ability to swallow other people's fate. The known information is that those whose fate is swallowed will continue to seek death in subsequent behaviors until they die.

Unknown information is:

1. The Platinum Apostle can control the major fate direction of the victims to achieve the plan she wants.

2. For every person whose fate the Platinum Apostle swallows, she has one more life. That is to say, the Platinum Apostle who has swallowed the fate of tens of thousands of people can die tens of thousands of times. This is not a fake death, but living again through the power of the fate substitute after truly dying. More accurately, the Platinum Apostle transferred the fate of "already dead" from herself to the fate substitute.

3. After activating the Fate Mark, all the Platinum Apostle's fate substitutes are herself.

4. The Platinum Apostle currently has 48532 fate substitutes.

That is to say, the palm she pushed out now, which seems light, is that she amplified her attack by 48532 times and blasted it out. This is also the reason why it looks slow. It is just like a heavy train starting. Once it starts...

Thump!!!

The sound of space bursting spread far away. Su Xiao tilted his head to avoid this palm, but the wind attached to it pushed him out. His feet plowed the ground and drew dozens of meters away. Fortunately, his shoes were transformed from the Overlord equipment 【Planet Destroyer】, so it was impossible for the soles to be worn out.

'Extreme Blade · World!'

Clang!!

With Su Xiao as the center, sharp and metallic slashing sounds appeared. The spherical "Extreme Blade Domain" appeared. It only appeared for an instant, looking like the color of the surrounding air became deeper. At every ten or so centimeters, there was a rice-grain-sized slashing point flashing.

Hao Chou jumped backward with all his strength. A slashing line flashed before his eyes, which made his cheeks twitch. Being slashed by this thing is no joke.

The Platinum Apostle was slashed to pieces immediately. Su Xiao waved his long knife, and the Platinum Apostle's rapidly healing flesh was blown away. The ground under his feet shook, and he had turned into an afterimage, heading straight for the Steel Magic Dragon, Cain.

Bang!

Su Xiao was blown away, more than ten meters away. The Priest's Ancient God appearance hit with a punch from the air. It can only be said that the abilities are one more tricky than the other.

Su Xiao was about to fly sideways, but he penetrated the space. Afterward, a crystal shell flew sideways like a soul leaving the body. It was a crystal layer that replaced him to bear this bombardment force and flew sideways.

Su Xiao arrived in front of Cain.

'Blade Dao Knife · Time.'

With a thump, everything around slowed down. Normally, Cain has many ways to avoid attacks, but at this moment, Cain, who was facing Su Xiao, had a feeling that if he dared to use these avoidance methods to avoid the attack of this technique master, he would definitely be slashed on the spot. A feeling of being locked, and any avoidance method was useless, made him particularly confirm this point.

'Steel Flying Dragon · Immortal!'

Clang!

The long knife slashed, and large pieces of broken steel wings flew out. Cain, who tilted his head, had half an arm and one ear cut off.

'Origin Imitation Appearance.'

Water Brother, who was sitting in the distance, had the Original Sin item "Origin Magic Mirror" appear behind him, reflecting Su Xiao inside. Almost at the same time, Su Xiao slashed to Cain's neck, and the long knife that had touched the skin stopped.

Cain's pupils shrank to the limit. Just one face-to-face, he almost died. This kind of blow made his Dao heart almost collapse. He was a late bloomer, but today is the peak game of monster melee.

The Platinum Apostle appeared beside Su Xiao and blasted out with a punch.

Thump!!

Su Xiao turned into an afterimage and flew backward. Just after flying more than ten meters away, he escaped through the crystal layer on his body as a substitute, letting the subsequent force act on the crystal layer.

With a whoosh, the space was penetrated, and Su Xiao had arrived in front of Water Brother. Water Brother didn't hesitate at all and turned into water. Facing him was Su Xiao's straight kick.

After a muffled sound, Su Xiao kicked straight onto the Origin Magic Mirror, kicking this Original Sin item away. This scene made the Platinum Apostle and Hao Chou feel a bump in their hearts. There are really not many people in the Void Ten Thousand Worlds who dare to treat Original Sin items like this...

Su Xiao certainly dared. He sealed six big-daddy-level Original Sin items with a danger level of 100. The Origin Magic Mirror is an Original Sin item, but the danger level is around 72. If it really comes to the door, no, the Origin Magic Mirror will definitely not come to the door.

In the ruins in the distance, the blind Water Brother perceived the Hunter holding the long knife from afar. After thinking for only two seconds, he decided to give up. An extremely bad premonition appeared in his heart. He always felt that this siege might hide a more terrifying conspiracy.

In the center of the battle area, black flames ignited on Su Xiao's arm. He raised his hand and looked at the burning black flames. The magic scythe that hunted Abyss existences in the past, its black flames were full of Abyss power. How ironic this is.

With a clang, the Sin Eye Magic Scythe was blocked by the long knife. Less than two meters apart, Su Xiao and Magic Scythe Teride looked at each other. A smile appeared in Su Xiao's eyes. Seeing this scene, Teride's pupils shrank to the limit.

"Sin Eye, it seems that she didn't pass your test."

Su Xiao opened his mouth. He rarely spoke when fighting, but every time it was for a purpose.

Puff!

Dark red spikes pierced out from Teride's right arm holding the Sin Eye Magic Scythe. Severe pain came to her hand holding the magic scythe, forcing her to let go of the magic scythe. Life and death are only in an instant at this level of confrontation, not to mention being bitten back by the weapon she held.

Clang!

The long knife slashed, and Magic Scythe Teride was stunned in place. Bloodstains appeared on her neck, but the next instant, Su Xiao in front of her was blown away by an invisible force. It was the Priest in the distance.

With a clang, the metal magic scythe fell to the ground. Magic Scythe Teride covered her neck with one hand, and black flames appeared on the ring wound on her neck. As a magic scythe, this degree of injury can be suppressed.

A large mouthful of blood was vomited out. Magic Scythe Teride... no, Teride not only failed to heal the wound with black flames but was bitten back and burned by the black flames. She sat on the ground powerlessly, tilted her head to look at the Sin Eye Magic Scythe, the weapon held by the strongest magic scythe of every generation.

"Why."

Teride didn't expect to get an answer, just too unwilling. She was not afraid of dying in this battle, but being slashed in such a face-to-face was something she, who was proud, could not accept.

The five eyes on the Sin Eye Magic Scythe all opened. They all looked at Teride, and a playful voice came from the different space.

"Why? A magic scythe actually slid into the Abyss. Don't you feel it's too ridiculous? Or have you forgotten the sentence your guide must have said to you: even if you have the qualification to gaze into the Abyss, you must be full of awe. Teride, you lost your awe."

The Sin Eye Magic Scythe changed its form and turned into a five-eyed vulture with dark red metal feathers. It looked at Teride with a smile that was not a smile.

"Is the taste of being burned by the magic scythe black flames uncomfortable? I made a deal with that Law-Breaker. If you have awe for Abyss power again and climb back to the original height, I will accompany you until the end of your life. Unfortunately, you forgot that the magic scythe climbed up from the bottom of the Abyss, constantly climbing out of the Abyss to keep getting stronger. Black flames are the power of will, not given by the Abyss, but from you, from the will of the magic scythe successor, Teride."

The Sin Eye Magic Scythe looked at Teride, who was burned to more than half by the black flames. Teride's eyes narrowed slightly and asked: "Even if I am the last magic scythe, it won't work?"

"Haha~, hahahaha, who said... you are the last magic scythe? Farewell, Teride."

The Sin Eye Magic Scythe spread its wings and flew up. Teride subconsciously raised her hand to grab it. Unfortunately, her entire right arm was burned to ashes, and the whole person turned into ashes.

Located a hundred meters away, a pitch-black palm brushed past Su Xiao's cheek. It was the Platinum Apostle's hand. This hand had a strong dark erosive nature. This ability alone was nothing, but after being amplified tens of thousands of times, it was a qualitative change. That sticky darkness would instantly phagocytize what it eroded.

With a boom, Su Xiao was blown away by the Priest again. Starry bloodstains remained in mid-air. Hao Chou's Overlord Blade, the Platinum Apostle's super-limit doubling, Su Xiao had room to deal with, only the Priest's attack from the air was really difficult to prevent.

Flying in mid-air, Su Xiao again used the Dragon Shadow Flash + crystal layer shell-shedding method to avoid being blown away. The second after he disappeared, he appeared beside the bald man. Although this perception type perceived Su Xiao, his body reaction couldn't keep up. What he had to face was Su Xiao's plain side kick.

Bang!

Blood mist appeared. Yes, the bald man was kicked into blood mist by Su Xiao. This scene made Blood Ji, who had been bombarding Su Xiao with blood-type abilities, choke on her breath.

With a muffled sound, Su Xiao was blown away by the Priest again. In mid-air, he felt the wind pressure coming from behind him. It was Hao Chou's Overlord Blade. He adjusted the angle of perfect blocking.

Clang!

Perfect blocking succeeded. Because there was no point of force under his feet, Su Xiao turned into an afterimage and flew obliquely to the ground. However, because he adjusted the blocking angle, the direction he flew backward was the position where Blood Ji was.

A root of violent blood energy spear attacks attacked Su Xiao. He penetrated the space to avoid it, and then used the crystal layer to get out of the impact force derived from the Overlord Blade like a cicada shedding its skin. This is a new move he developed. Although it hasn't been named yet, it is particularly easy to use when facing a siege.

Su Xiao appeared behind Blood Ji. Just for a moment, Blood Ji was numb.

"Ah!!"

Blood Ji roared wildly. All blood energy turned into blood blades, attacking the surroundings without distinction with her as the center. However, what she faced was a close combat master with an HP limit of 7.81 million points.

Another plain side kick.

Bang!

Blood Ji turned into blood mist. Because it was blood energy type, the blood mist she turned into was particularly mellow.

Su Xiao disappeared again. Almost at the same time, Cain's cheeks twitched fiercely. He felt the wind coming from the side. Suddenly, he felt unprecedented peace in his heart.

A breeze blew, carrying the unique grass and wood breath of summer, and the sound of cicadas entered his ears. Cain was dressed in formal wear, holding flowers in his hand. He was 30 years old at that time, and his late wife was 25. On that day, they walked into the wedding hall together.

"Yes, it has been so long."

Cain, holding flowers, tilted his head and looked at his wife. This face, which was not beautiful but missed day and night, was so clear at this moment.

Bang!

Blood mist exploded. This is the Paradise Contention, life or death, everyone has their own story, and, their own goals.

Clang!!

The Overlord Blade slashed down. Hao Chou, with blood overflowing from the corners of his mouth, roared happily and stepped forward, pushing away the long knife in Su Xiao's hand.

"Just now!"

Hao Chou used force until his seven orifices bled, looking like a fierce ghost.

'Extreme Blade · Bai Ye.'

Just for a moment, the body-protecting energy derived from Su Xiao's technique ability was consumed by more than half. With a hum! Golden light erupted on the Dragon Flash in his hand. Unlike the golden light corresponding to gold, sun, etc., this kind of golden light was more condensed and had powerful attack power.

The slashing power spread, covering Hao Chou's chest with slashing marks. The slash hadn't arrived, but it had such power. Obviously, not only did they not use their full strength when fighting the Abyss Guard Captain, but the "Extreme Blade · Bai Ye" used by Su Xiao before was not as terrifying as it is now.

One slash down, a pitch-black palm greeted it. After a brief silence, the golden light of the technique and the pitch-black exploded.

The impact blew Su Xiao, Hao Chou, and the Platinum Apostle who came out to block away. Dust rose. When everything calmed down, Su Xiao stood in place, blood dripping along the long knife. This was his blood.

Scarlet patterns appeared on Su Xiao's arms, which was caused by activating the core ability of the Eternal-level equipment 【Blood Moon Queen】. However, this ability was shattered by the Platinum Apostle's blow.

"Equipment Effect 2: Scarlet Blood Moon (Core Active), immediately consumes 95% of current soul energy, converts it into "Source Life Force," thereby increasing your maximum HP by 400% in the subsequent 10 seconds. This is "Extra Maximum HP." During this period, all damage you take will only consume "Extra Maximum HP" until the "Extra Maximum HP" is exhausted.

Hint: The cooldown of this ability is five natural days.

Hint: The "Extra Maximum HP" bonus can reach up to 10 million points."

It can be seen how outrageous the Platinum Apostle's attack means are. Before Su Xiao could recover his breath, a sense of threat came from his side. A blood energy phantom appeared behind him.

With a loud noise, the blood energy phantom blocked the Priest's attack from the air with its arm, drew its bow and set an arrow, and aimed the blood gun arrow at the Priest.

A pitch-black and domineering slash flashed by. Hao Chou rushed forward, held the knife with both hands, and slashed angrily. With a clang, a powerful penetrating force made Su Xiao's body numb, and his HP slipped below 50%. The next instant, the Platinum Apostle and Hao Chou swapped positions, and the pitch-black palm slapped Su Xiao's chest.

The dark impact came out from Su Xiao's back heart. It can only be said that the Platinum Apostle's attack ability is really too perverted. Under this blow, it actually triggered the life-saving ability "Blood User," which means that his HP has slipped to only 1%. It can only be said that he is worthy of being a guy who can still survive after betraying the leader and becoming a violator.

"Hmm?"

The Platinum Apostle didn't kill Su Xiao with this palm, which was slightly unexpected. She didn't hesitate at all, the Fate Mark activated, and she slapped Su Xiao again. Su Xiao didn't dodge but looked at her. This is the "Malicious Gaze" ability.

'Time · Dominator.'

"Skill Effect (Passive): When you see through the enemy's flaws with technique-type abilities and attack them, your technique-type abilities will affect the time force field within a diameter of 10 meters around you, thereby causing a continuous 0.2-1 second time "slow phenomenon." Within this area, you will ignore the "slow phenomenon," maintain constant speed, and attack the enemy."

Suddenly, the Platinum Apostle felt time slow down, which also made her unable to immediately close the Fate Mark. This is also the reason why Su Xiao didn't choose the "Blade Dao Knife · Time" that is better to trigger, because fighting the Platinum Apostle is equivalent to fighting the opponent's main body + tens of thousands of fate substitutes. "Blade Dao Knife · Time" cannot affect tens of thousands of enemy units at the same time, but "Time · Dominator" as a Law-Breaker ability can.

At this moment, the Platinum Apostle felt something bad. In order to keep this Law-Breaker here forever, she even plotted to seize the "Puppet Mark" in the opponent's storage space, and even staged a bitter meat plan with the Priest, using the hostility with the Priest to paralyze this Law-Breaker, just to unfold this final siege.

Of course, on the surface, it was said to seize the "Puppet Mark," but in fact, it was for 【Origin Stone · World】. As for the Original Sin backlash after killing this Hunter, the Platinum Apostle has many fate substitutes and is not very afraid of this kind of backlash.

But now, the Platinum Apostle has a strong sense of crisis. She didn't care about the dark hand attack that hadn't hit Su Xiao, but tried her best to close the activation state of the "Fate Mark" under the "Time Slow" phenomenon.

Silently, an arm-thick dark tentacle pierced through the Platinum Apostle's back from behind. This dark tentacle looked like it was made of some meteorite iron, and the tip was particularly sharp. The previous holder of this weapon was named Abyss Archbishop, whose peak strength in the past was "Supreme Peak." And now, this strongest backstabbing weapon in the ten thousand worlds is possessed by the Priest. That time in the Eternal Light World, "Disdain" was the Priest's biggest gain.

"Disdain" has three characteristics. Once a backstab is successfully achieved, its attack characteristics will be determined according to the characteristics of the world it is in. And this time, the intensity of this attack is no longer the limit of the area it is in, but the limit that "Disdain" can reach.

The second characteristic of "Disdain" is that its attack has two stages. After the first stage of attack successfully achieves a "Backstabber," it will explode a second stage of attack according to the world characteristics it is in. Not only that, the explosion intensity of this second stage attack will also be determined according to the strength of the person being backstabbed, that is, the stronger the stab, the stronger it is.

The third characteristic of "Disdain" is "Adaptation." The stronger the person holding it, the stronger the power it can explode.

This blow right now is undoubtedly the strongest blow that "Disdain" can explode.

Just this is not enough to kill the Platinum Apostle with tens of thousands of lives. The key point is that the Platinum Apostle's "Fate Mark" is in an activated state. In this state, her attack will be multiplied by tens of thousands of times, but in contrast, the attack she receives will also spread to her fate substitutes through this connection channel.

And this blow of "Disdain" is enough to instantly kill those tens of thousands of fate substitutes.

But what really killed the Platinum Apostle was not just the calculation of Su Xiao and the Priest, but more importantly, the backlash of the Forbidden Mark "Fate Mark."

Those who play with fate will be abandoned by fate.

At this moment, the Platinum Apostle was abandoned by fate. The scene of her coveting 【Origin Stone · World】 was so similar to the victims whose fate had been swallowed by her in the past. Those who are good at swimming drown in water.

"Oh, so, that's it."

The Platinum Apostle looked down at "Disdain" and smiled. She understood everything. This scene was too familiar to her. Isn't it the scene that appeared only after the fate was swallowed up? And the thing that swallowed her fate was called "Fate Mark."

Snap!!

The Platinum Apostle's body exploded. This violator, who can be called the hardest to kill, actually died in the hands of a violator. This scene, how wonderful. It's just that, the violators who died in the hands of the Priest every time don't seem to be fewer than Su Xiao.

A pale gold mark floated in mid-air. It was the "Fate Mark." The Priest, who put away "Disdain," pressed one hand on this mark. The mark disappeared into his palm. Undoubtedly, the Priest became the new owner of the "Fate Mark."

In fact, Su Xiao and the Priest have been cooperating. From the beginning, Su Xiao didn't think that he could be the final winner in this monster melee, so he had to find a collaborator. The Priest, who plotted the "Soul Mark" in the Dawn Ruins, was undoubtedly the best choice.

As Forbidden Marks, "Puppet Mark" + "Fate Mark" = "Mastery Mark." This kind of temptation is something even the Platinum Apostle couldn't resist. As for the fact that after arriving at the Dawn Paradise, it is impossible to take away the "Puppet Mark" and the "Puppet Mark" will be forcibly left here, only two people know, one is the Priest and the other is the Gray Gentleman. Obviously, neither of them would tell the Platinum Apostle this key information.

Not to mention, plotting more Forbidden Marks was just a smoke bomb thrown by the Platinum Apostle. Her real goal was 【Origin Stone · World】.

Everything settled down. The Priest threw a 【Scarlet Treasure Chest】, which was the division agreed upon in advance. Su Xiao wanted the 【Scarlet Treasure Chest】 of the Platinum Apostle + the victory of this contention, and all other Forbidden Marks belonged to the Priest.

Undoubtedly, the Priest will become more dangerous in the future. But in contrast, Su Xiao gained more. With the Apocalypse Paradise · Contention Mission, he is about to be able to promote to Supreme with the highest promotion specification in the history of the Law-Breaker faction. By then, he really won't be afraid of the Priest who possesses multiple Forbidden Marks.

Everything happened in just a few seconds. Hao Chou, holding the Overlord Blade, witnessed all this and was stunned, completely stunned.

"Gulp~"

Hao Chou rarely swallowed. A super bad feeling gradually surged in his heart.

Tomorrow is Sunday, I will take a day off, no update. Readers, please forgive me. This small physique of Waste Mosquito really doesn't dare to liver anymore. Coupled with the manuscript that is about to be exhausted, Waste Mosquito plans to write only half a chapter tomorrow, just as a day off. ===== CHAPTER 3985 =====
