Chapter 764: The True Immortal-Slayer (3/10, please subscribe)

The instant Su Bairong was screaming wildly inside his heart, he suddenly discovered that the black shadow's speed had skyrocketed explosively!

Even this—was still not his limit!?

Bang!!

Before Su Bairong could collect himself, his body, which had been sent flying backward, was caught up by the black shadow, and the second fist slammed straight down from above, viciously striking his belly.

His body lurched violently, and the next instant it plunged wildly downward and slammed hard into the ground with a heavy boom, cratering out a huge pit.

As dust filled the air, Su Bairong let out a "wah" and spat fresh blood.

An immortal's body truly couldn't withstand that black substance!

"Wait…"

Bang bang bang bang bang!!

Without any pause, the third, fourth, and fifth fists came in quick succession, battering her body into a bow.

Fist after fist rained down on Su Bairong like a raging storm.

With this spot as the center, the entire earth kept trembling without end, as if an earthquake had erupted.

The frenzied assault left Su Bairong with no power to strike back.

Every fist that landed made her sternum emit crisp, cracking sounds.

As her body kept jolting and heaving under the continuous heavy blows, Su Bairong's power was still climbing!

Just when she felt she was on the verge of losing consciousness entirely…

Like an emergency response, her power skyrocketed wildly!

Violent power erupted from within her body, shielding her whole frame!

Crack!

When Fang Yue's next fist slammed into Su Bairong's chest, what came out was no longer the sound of Su Bairong's chest breaking, but… the faint sound of his own hand bones shattering!

Wincing in pain, Fang Yue stopped in bewilderment, looking at Su Bairong's chest—uneven, pitted, covered in fistprints—with suspicion and uncertainty.

At this moment, Su Bairong looked utterly wretched, yet bared bloodstained teeth in a grin, laughing like a madman.

"Cloud… rank!!"

Cloud rank?!

His pupils contracted. Fang Yue stopped moving and pulled back some distance.

"Hee hee hee… hahaha! Ga ga ga ga ga!! Too weak, too weak! That power of yours really does have the ability to wound my true body, but it's too weak! If it were just a bit stronger—even just enough to reach the Cloud rank—then the me right now should already be a corpse."

"Too bad, there are no 'ifs'!"

That power, after all, was not an immortal-grade strange object like Immortal-Slaying Water! Its might couldn't be compared in the slightest!

Su Bairong's smile gradually turned cruel and frenzied. Since becoming an immortal, she had never suffered such humiliation!

The person before her, and the alliance too—all of them must die! Die!!

She channeled her power, about to launch a counterattack, when she suddenly noticed…

At this moment, Fang Yue, backlit by the moonlight, a black ring hovering above his head, under the pattering Night Rain, somehow gave off an eerie and solemn pressure.

Drip.

Drip.

That black blood dripped down from the corner of his eye.

Only now did Su Bairong take a careful look at Fang Yue and discover that both the whites and irises of his eyes had long since turned pitch-black, as if something uncanny!

That strange power seemed to be faintly connected to this state of his!

Clearly, right now she held the absolute upper hand.

Clearly she had already recovered to Cloud-rank power, her strength far surpassing the person before her!

But for some reason, the sense of threat and pressure emanating from this fellow had not diminished in the slightest—instead, it was skyrocketing wildly.

As if, in this situation, this fellow still had some way to turn the tables.

Impossible…

Impossible! Cloud rank and Human rank—a gap of an entire great realm—no one can cross it.

Even if I've lost my lower half, even if my chest has been hammered to mush, even if my body is nearly falling apart, as long as I still have one breath left, the moment my strength recovers to Cloud rank, the game is already over.

This battle—I have won!!

White bone sprouted once more from the broken stump of her upper body, propping up the scattered half of her skeleton.

Broken bones clattered to the ground in a clatter, and flesh hung from the bones like rotten meat, swaying in the wind.

Apart from her head, which was still relatively intact save for a pierced hole, her entire body had fallen apart.

Yet even so, she—an immortal's body—still stood up, and with a savage grin, looked toward Fang Yue ahead.

At this moment, Su Bairong was already utterly certain of her victory.

But what was with that composure, that calm, on the other side?

No more thinking about it—I'll kill him, kill him!!

"Brat, give me…"

Before Su Bairong could finish, Fang Yue suddenly spoke three words in a calm voice.

"Parchment."

Hum!!

Almost the instant Fang Yue's words fell, Su Bairong's pupils contracted sharply, and her mind went blank for an instant.

Parchment… parchment!!

Meiyu's parchment!!

That thing was actually on him??

No wonder this person is so strong — they're actually Plum Rain's inheritor! Plum Rain gave them the parchment!

Killing intent surged wildly.

A heaven-rushing killing intent, like a towering tsunami, surged toward Fang Yue to engulf him — but in the next second.

"Power of Ancient Script."

【Power of Ancient Script!!】

Boom!!

Momentum, shot skyward!

Wild power, spilling out and running rampant!

Lifespan, like a high-speed spinning motor steam engine, spun at high speed, churning and galloping, converting lifespan into power, rapidly evaporating!

In that instant, Su Bairong only saw two Ancient Scripts, half-virtual half-real, hovering between illusion and reality, simultaneously appearing on Fang Yue's body.

【Speed!】

【Strength!】

The instant the characters vanished, Fang Yue's figure abruptly disappeared.

Su Bairong couldn't even react — her head burst open with a bang, the headless corpse swayed twice, then toppled to the ground.

The wild power utterly severed her last spark of life!

An immortal, fallen!

Fang Yue's form only now froze, stopped, a thousand meters behind Su Bairong.

The gale kicked up by the extreme speed only now howled past, blowing sand and stones into the air, clearing out an open patch of ground.

"Hoo…"

Fang Yue exhaled heavily, his power dissipating, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

"Finally killed her, this time it must be…"

Thud!

His heart, beat violently once.

He nearly couldn't catch his breath.

His pupils contracted — a familiar sensation welled up from his chest — his heart was undergoing eerie transformation!

The parchment's side effect had actually kicked in?!

How could this be…

Fang Yue's expression changed drastically, panic rising in his heart, and the eerie transformation of his heart continued!

"Parchment!!"

【Here!!】

"Save me! Stop the eerie transformation!"

【Are you an idiot? This is the price of using me — how could it possibly be stopped.】

"How could this happen? Clearly in the game…"

【Idiot, of course it's because the channel hasn't fully opened yet!】

【Although because the channel expanded, the price of Advent has been greatly reduced — the burned lifespan has gone from burning 1 day of lifespan to gain 1 second of Synchronize with reality, to burning 1 day of lifespan to Synchronize for 5 minutes. But after all, the power is obtained through the channel — you don't inherently possess this power.】

【In this situation, using my Rain-tier power, the price is far greater than in the game.】
