Chapter 165: Three Perish
"Execute!"
The phantom of the Demon God parted its lips slightly.
The chilling voice fell in tandem with the towering halberd.
The three individuals who had barely managed to survive Di Xin's onslaught were now filled with terror and helplessness in their eyes!
The blow they had unleashed against Di Xin had already consumed the majority of the power within their bodies!
To defend against Di Xin's counterattack, they had even coughed up their vital essence.
At this moment, they were at the end of their tether!
Furthermore, Lü Bu's strike carried the howling sounds of wind and thunder, and its terrifying might was simply astonishing!
They could even sense that the breath of death was already upon them!
The snake-woman gritted her teeth, still wishing to resist!
Yet just as she struggled to her feet, she found that the other two had suddenly stepped in front of her.
"Blech!"
As if it were utterly worthless, the two opened their mouths, spewing forth massive gouts of fresh blood!
Radiance gleamed within the flowing blood.
That was the power belonging exclusively to their primordial origin!
The once-supple fine fuzz of the giant spider withered instantly, and its entire torso shrank by several folds.
The other creature, a green worm, instantly deflated from its previously plump state, transforming into something resembling a withered corpse.
The snake-woman could clearly perceive that the life auras of the two were virtually exhausted!
They had been drained dry in an instant!
They had voluntarily coughed up the life origin from deep within their bodies!
After this move, regardless of the outcome, the two of them were destined to die without a doubt!
"What are you doing?!" she roared in terror.
Yet the green worm gave no response.
The spider merely whipped its rear, wrapping countless threads of silk around her body, forming a shape akin to a parachute.
It turned its head, its numerous compound eyes revealing neither joy nor sorrow.
"Third Sister..."
"Remember to have Big Brother avenge us!"
A frenzy of venom and spider silk proliferated wildly in the air!
Constructing a massive web completely saturated with deadly venom!
They actually intended to burn their very lives, solely to buy a sliver of a chance of survival for the snake-woman!
It was precisely at this moment...
The halberd finally descended...
Boom!!!!!
The giant web collided with the halberd of the Demon God!
This single blow shattered the heavens and split the earth!
The atmospheric pressure across the entire region shifted in that very instant!
An unprecedented gale swept wildly outward!
The clouds spanning hundreds of kilometers around were blown away in a split second!
Revealing the dazzling sunlight high above.
Crack!
A fissure appeared upon the giant spiderweb, and it began to spread continuously!
Yet the next moment...
"Raaaaahhhhh!!!!"
The souls of the two creatures burst forth from their physical shells, igniting from their feet upward!
The two fiercely burning souls roared as they charged upward!
The gaps in the giant web were instantly mended, and they continued to thicken further!
They had actually resorted to burning their souls as the price, solely to buy a little more time!
They had utterly and unhesitatingly abandoned even their own souls and lives!
Yet, they had finally held off this wave of attacks!
Lü Bu paused for a moment, then caught his breath, took two steps back, and raised the Halberd of Heavenly Desolation once more.
Under the blessing of Song Qi's [Song of Life], he had no need to worry about exhausting his stamina, and was fully capable of unleashing [Sacrifice Strike] consecutively.
The recently dissipated Demon God phantom materialized once more!
Its gaze was cold and devoid of light, lacking the slightest ripple of emotion.
"Execute!"
Like the Grimlock calling for a soul.
The halberd fell for the second time...
Boom!!!
This time, the giant spiderweb failed to hold.
After merely a momentary pause, it was blasted into countless fragments!
A cold gleam flashed past, and the actions of the two burning souls seemed as though they had been struck by a pause button, freezing right where they were.
"Good thing... Third Sister... got away..."
The spider's soul turned its head with great difficulty, gazing backward.
aided by the sheer might of Lü Bu's blow, the snake-woman had long since been blown away to who-knows-where.
And upon confirming that the snake-woman had flown far away, the two of them finally attained a sense of release...
Then...
Bang! Bang!
The executing effect of the Halberd of Heavenly Desolation triggered, and the two souls suddenly burst apart, transforming into a patch of nothingness.
[Experience Points +60 Billion!]
[World Origin +1]
[Experience Points +58 Billion!]
[World Origin +2]
Boom! Boom!
Two massive corpses crashed heavily onto the ground, kicking up a storm of mud and stone.
Lü Bu shook his head, landing in front of the two, seemingly harboring a hint of regret.
"Sigh."
Song Qi sighed, shaking his head as he stepped forward, appearing deeply moved.
"What a profound bond of sisterhood and brotherhood..."
"Unwilling to hesitate in burning their lives and souls, solely to grant the snake-woman a sliver of hope?"
"Even as adversaries, they remain truly worthy of respect."
"Rest easy..."
"I am a kind-hearted soul who simply cannot bear to see righteous and affectionate people suffer grievances."
"Therefore, I shall have her accompany you on your journey shortly."
With that, Song Qi's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.
A few minutes later...
Boom!
A massive snake corpse was flung down.
[Experience Points +65 Billion!]
[World Origin +1]
Shortly after, Song Qi and Di Xin leaped down.
Once the spatial lockdown was lifted, Song Qi was able to utilize [Directional Jump] once again.
It took him merely a few minutes to track down the target.
The snake-woman was at her last gasp, whereas Di Xin's injuries had already recovered to a large extent.
Although her resistance had been intensely fierce, in the face of an absolute disparity in strength, she still could not escape the fate of death.
Bolstered by the five-fold experience card, the three Rule-grade monsters had rewarded Song Qi with a staggering 180 billion experience points!
His level leaped directly from Level 64 to Level 66 and a half!
"Experience points are certainly a rewarding harvest, but right now, that is not what I value the most."
Song Qi rubbed his hands together, walking toward the three corpses filled with anticipation.
"Now then..."
"It is time for the tense and thrilling lottery session!"
