The bat flapped its enormous black wings, creating an imposing barrier that made others hesitate. But for Adrian, it was different. His sole focus was to annihilate the creature before him, and he pressed on relentlessly.With a punch in one hand and sword energy in the other, he launched a direct attack at the bat. The sword energy pierced straight into the bat's skull, and in the next instant, his fist landed heavily on its massive body. The bat struggled to escape Adrian's lethal onslaught, but it was too late."Die!" Adrian shouted as he shattered the bat's soul.Nearby, the Violet Rain Bird was left utterly stunned. The bat was at the late Astral Stage, yet Adrian had defeated it effortlessly.“Noooo!” the bat roared in anguish as it crashed to the ground.Seizing the opportunity, Adrian swiftly sliced into the bat and extracted its inner core. He tossed the core to Tyron, saying, “Take this. Both of us are stronger than you, and the core isn't of much use to us."Tyron caug
Adrian’s expression turned cold as he declared, “No matter how strong the force, it won't stop my advance.” Standing beside him, Tyron said, “I’ll follow you wherever you go, Adrian.” His sharp gaze was filled with determination. In his mind, Adrian was his lucky star.Adrian smiled and lightly patted Tyron on the shoulder. “Don’t worry, I won’t let you down.”Nearby, the Violet Rain Bird shared Tyron’s sentiment but chose to remain silent. The trio continued forward at a steady pace.Suddenly, a thunderous sound echoed, sending chills down Tyron’s spine. The ground shook, and even Adrian found himself momentarily taken aback. Just then, a dark figure appeared ahead.“What is that?” Adrian asked, firing a surge of energy from his hand.The collision was intense, erupting in an instant. Before Adrian could react, a strange figure struck him.“What is this?” Adrian exclaimed, startled. He couldn’t identify what had collided with him. The creature resembled neither a human nor a g
A fierce wind swept through as Adrian punched the Human Ghoul, forcing it to retreat step by step. The creature's pupils burned with black flames, which soon shifted to purple. The Violet Rain Bird cried out, "Watch out! The Human Ghoul is evolving! Be careful, Master Adrian!"The bird's alarm revealed its understanding of the situation, and Adrian's expression grew colder. "Got it!" he replied."Can you handle it, Adrian? Do you need our help?" Tyron asked, his expression grim.The Violet Rain Bird's large eyes glinted with concern as it said, "Master Adrian should be fine, but we must stay vigilant. There could be stronger beings nearby." As they ventured deeper into the secret realm, the creatures they encountered grew more powerful. One wrong move could cost them their lives.Boom!The cave trembled as Adrian and the Human Ghoul clashed again. Adrian aimed to destroy the creature's skull with his relentless attacks.Suddenly, Tyron shouted, "Wait, Adrian! That’s not its w
Adrian's gaze turned icy as he sneered. “It seems you can think after all. That’s impressive. But with all your dark arts, what difference does it make? I’ll crush you just the same.”Enraged, flames ignited in Adrian's hand, burning brightly as if fueled by an otherworldly force. With a swift motion, he unleashed the fire toward the ghastly creature before him.The Human Ghoul glared back at Adrian, perceiving the latter’s actions as an insult. It longed for a fight, ready to battle for hundreds of rounds.Adrian smirked coldly. “You want a fight? Then bring it on!”Determined to show the ghoul his true strength, Adrian surrounded himself with fire and struck the creature's body, sending flames cascading around it. The ghoul howled in agony, its massive frame trembling as the flames seared its skin. Its roars echoed through the cave, but no matter how it screamed, it was helpless against Adrian’s relentless assault. The fire continued to burn, transforming the ghoul into a horrify
The two forces clashed in a devastating collision, violently pushing the Human Ghoul back once again. “Don’t think that getting bigger makes you invincible,” Adrian taunted.In the blink of an eye, Adrian appeared behind the ghoul. With a swift motion, the flames in his hand expanded, engulfing the creature entirely. The ghoul struggled madly within the inferno, but the fire burned mercilessly.Bellowing in fury, the Human Ghoul’s monstrous strength shook the air, causing the cave to tremble as if it would collapse under sheer force.But Adrian remained unfazed. Smiling coldly, he said, “Now you understand pain, don’t you? How pathetic."Tyron watched in fear as his heart raced, while the Violet Rain Bird trembled involuntarily.In the distance, an ominous presence began to approach, its aura so overwhelming that even Adrian could sense its strength from afar. “Another monster coming to kill me? Fine, let’s see who gets to walk away,” he said icily.Adrian moved swiftly, launch
The trio sped away, sensing a powerful being approaching from behind at incredible speed. They had no idea what the pursuer's intentions were, but if they harbored ill will, all of them could perish here.As the trio fled, a mysterious figure halted mid-air where they had just been. "Not bad. He managed to kill a Human Ghoul. Impressive. But such talent belongs to me now," the figure muttered before vanishing mysteriously. In the next moment, they reappeared a hundred meters away.Meanwhile, Adrian and his companions entered a cave. “What’s going on? Who is that person, and why are they chasing us so relentlessly?” Adrian wondered aloud.They couldn’t recall offending anyone with such power, and the situation didn’t make sense no matter how much they thought about it.Tyron, equally puzzled, echoed Adrian’s confusion. "Who could it be? We haven’t crossed paths with anyone like this."“Maybe it’s not about grudges. Perhaps this person simply wants to kill you,” the Violet Rain Bird
"Keep moving forward!" Adrian urged as they reached a three-way fork. He paused briefly, then laughed. "Well, well, another fork in the road. This could work to our advantage."After examining the new tunnels, Adrian quickly pulled out two items from his pouch. He scattered the same substance at each of the three openings, creating illusions to mislead their pursuer and buy them more time."Are you sure about this, Adrian? Can't he still track our energy and figure out which tunnel we took?" Tyron asked, concern etched on his face.With a reassuring smile, Adrian replied, "No worries."He began weaving a series of complex formations, sending waves of energy that cloaked the entrances in a deceptive mist. The intricate web made it nearly impossible to discern which tunnel they had entered.Tyron watched in astonishment as the three tunnel entrances now appeared identical, obscured by the formations. It was impossible to tell what lay beyond them.Adrian chose the rightmost tunnel
Everything felt shrouded in mystery as the three of them raced forward. They knew that any hesitation could likely lead to their demise. Facing a Divine immortal was no trivial matter. Even though Adrian had the audacity to confront the enemy head-on, the gap in strength was too vast. For now, retreat was their best option.“No time to overthink! Just keep going!” Adrian roared, his eyes burning with frustration. He wanted to fight back, but he knew it was impossible given the current disparity in power.As the trio pressed onward, a terrifying aura suddenly loomed ahead. Another Divine immortal stood in their path, and the trio froze.Adrian’s anger flared. "What’s going on? How are we so unlucky today?"Tyron looked equally grim. They had suspected there might be other powerful beings nearby, but this situation felt unbearable. It was as if there was no way out.Adrian narrowed his eyes. "Since they want to chase us, let’s make our stand here."Tyron's face hardened in agreemen
