Chapter 48: If I bring this axe down, you're in for a world of trouble!
While using Blood Whip Technique to bind the double-headed Stitching Monster's hands, Su Hao's right hand extended flat, and a black Gravity Rock Axe about two meters long appeared in his hand.
Boom—!
Before using spiritual power to assist in control, the Gravity Rock Axe's weight was astonishing; just taken from the storage space, the Gravity Rock Axe in Su Hao's hand fell heavily to the ground.
It smashed the floor tiles, the axe head entirely embedded in the ground, and the surrounding floor tiles were cracked with radiating fissures.
Crack crack crack—!
Without any idle talk, Su Hao poured spiritual power into the Gravity Rock Axe; the patterns on the axe head emitted a purplish-black light, greatly reducing its weight.
After the Gravity Rock Axe's weight was reduced, Su Hao dragged it backward, drawing a ferocious crack on the floor, and sprinted toward the double-headed Stitching Monster.
Watching Su Hao approach rapidly with ever-increasing speed, the double-headed Stitching Monster panicked a bit; as a mage, engaging in close combat with a wielder of a giant axe was obviously unwise.
He just couldn't understand one thing: why could this warrior use magic?
But the situation was urgent, he had no time to think further, quickly abandoning the longer-casting Death Finger, and instead using the faster-casting Wind Blade Technique and Arcane Missile.
Only seen, on his left head, his eyes flashed white, he opened his mouth full of rotting flesh, and continuously spat out six white Arcane Missiles flying toward Su Hao.
At the same time, on his right head, after chanting two lines of incantation, aided by his staff, he released a sharp wind blade, flying out faster, aimed at Su Hao's neck.
"Hmph! This little thing can't hurt me!"
Su Hao snorted coldly, with no intention to dodge, his forward speed not decreasing but increasing, allowing the double-headed Stitching Monster's attacks to land on him.
Only hearing a 'puff' sound, the Wind Blade Technique sliced through Su Hao's tough skin, cutting his trachea.
But after cutting the skin and trachea, the Wind Blade Technique's energy was nearly exhausted; upon striking the cervical vertebrae, its contained energy was completely depleted, turning into a wisp of cool wind that vanished in Su Hao's neck.
After becoming a Flesh Controller, Su Hao's physical strength already far exceeded that of ordinary people; plus taking a drop of Crimson Blood further enhanced his physique.
Even though the double-headed Stitching Monster possessed Supernatural Second Rank strength, the Wind Blade Technique hastily used could not possibly behead the current Su Hao!
Even a stronger Wind Blade Technique could not inflict substantial damage on Su Hao, let alone the basic skill Arcane Missile.
The six Arcane Missiles merely made Su Hao's body tremble twice before turning into a wisp of white light and vanishing in the air.
After withstanding those two attacks, Su Hao was now less than three meters from the double-headed Stitching Monster.
"Slash!"
At that moment, Su Hao roared angrily, his right foot forcefully pushing off the ground and stepping forward.
Leveraging the momentum from the forward charge, he gripped the Gravity Rock Axe's handle with both hands, swung it forcefully toward the right front, and his body spun rapidly twice.
Immediately after.
His hands changed force, gripping the Gravity Rock Axe and swinging it upward, shifting from a horizontal chop to a vertical lift over his head.
At the same time, he pushed off with both feet, leaping high upward, and changed the Gravity Rock Axe's weight-reducing effect to a weight-increasing one, then fiercely chopped down at the double-headed Stitching Monster ahead.
"No, no!"
Seeing this, the double-headed Stitching Monster instantly felt a chill rise from its soles, instantly rushing to its crown, terrified out of its wits.
He sensed a deadly threat on that black axe; if he couldn't dodge—
He would die!
He hastily abandoned his attack plan, launching the prepared second round of Wind Blade Technique and Arcane Missile at the blood whips on his hands, hoping to break free from the bindings and dodge Su Hao's lethal axe strike.
However, he had just destroyed the two blood whips, regaining freedom, and before he could retreat a step, he heard Su Hao shout angrily.
"Give me..."
"Kneel!"
The next moment.
Under a large infusion of spiritual power, the purplish-black glow of the patterns on the Gravity Rock Axe became even richer.
Below the axe blade, a black energy sphere appeared, releasing powerful gravity toward the double-headed Stitching Monster below.
Only hearing a 'boom' sound, the double-headed Stitching Monster, just freed from the blood whip's restraints, felt its body sink and heavily knelt to the ground.
It smashed the floor tiles beneath it, creating a large pit, and irregular cracks spread outward from there.
Under this pressure, from the seven orifices of both heads flowed a stream of foul-smelling blood, and fine threads of blood seeped from every pore of his body.
"No!!!"
His hands bulged with veins as he braced against the ground, with difficulty lifting his heads, he stared at the ever-enlarging black great axe before him and let out a desperate scream.
Meanwhile, his eyes held deep bewilderment: just two days apart, why had this human's power changed so dramatically—could this really be the same person?
Before the double-headed Stitching Monster could think further, when the Gravity Rock Axe reached about twenty centimeters above his head, under the increasing gravity, his eyes 'puffed' and burst from the pressure.
Immediately after.
The black Gravity Rock Axe, carrying tremendous force, fiercely cleaved between the double-headed Stitching Monster's two heads.
Even though the double-headed Stitching Monster was a Supernatural Second Rank monster, its body was like tofu, split in half by the Gravity Rock Axe, foul-smelling blood gushed out, staining Su Hao's entire body red.
Finally, the Gravity Rock Axe heavily struck the ground, blasting a crater several meters in diameter, leaving a ferocious wound on his body.
The flesh on either side of the wound was crushed by the immense force carried by the Gravity Rock Axe and the gravity at the blade into lumps of meat paste.
Through this wound, one could clearly see that, under the dual gravity, the double-headed Stitching Monster's internal organs had all ruptured.
Even the double-headed Stitching Monster's two heads that had not directly suffered the attack were shaken apart by the immense force, copious dark-red blood and white brain matter mixing together and spurting from the seven orifices.
Having suffered such grave injuries, the double-headed Stitching Monster's four eyes had all disintegrated; it was clearly about to die, yet Su Hao did not stop there.
While the Gravity Rock Axe was splitting the double-headed Stitching Monster in half.
Su Hao's right foot stepped forward to the left front, both hands gripping the Gravity Rock Axe, he swung it leftward following the motion, using his right foot as a pivot, quickly turning once, and horizontally chopped at the double-headed Stitching Monster's chest.
Only hearing a 'puff' sound, the double-headed Stitching Monster's body, already split in two, was again cut into two sections, becoming four uneven chunks of corpse that heavily hit the ground.
"Hah—!"
"That's the safe way!"
Su Hao panted heavily, looking at the ground where the corpse lay in four pieces, a smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
This combo, whether draining spiritual power or stamina, was a huge consumption, leaving Su Hao quite exhausted.
Fortunately, the outcome was good; Su Hao, as a First Rank supernatural being, overwhelmed and instantly killed the second-rank supernatural monster—the Stitching Monster.
"This is a second-rank monster, after all; who knows what good stuff can be refined from it."
Su Hao chopped the Gravity Rock Axe into the ground, rubbed his hands together, and used the Item Refining Technique on the Stitching Monster's corpse.
