Alex had his heart in his mouth with a tingling scalp. To his surprise, this alien from Galaxy Nova had
become even more powerful, and his exuded aura contained an apocalyptic power.
âDid he hide his strength previously?â
âOr, did he devour the huge black bullâs dark golden bone patterns?â
Alex hurriedly fled and rushed toward the wooded hill. He glanced at the tridimensional map in his sea
of consciousness amid hecticness, only to discover that the dark golden marker was really gone.
Meanwhile, the marker of the guy around him turned out to be black.
What grade did black represent?
Alex had never seen it before. Was black after gold?
Despite fleeing, Alexâs mouth was not idle either. He retorted, âI will have to kill you too in the future!
You better not die early!â
Wham!
With an ear-piercing sonic boom, the man threw the divine halberd in his hand at Alex like a ray of light.
Alex narrowly dodged it with Instant Teleportation.
He continued fleeing. Three minutes later, he was caught up again.
Both parties exchanged blows once. Alex suffered a miserable defeat with three broken ribs and
cursed in immense pain.
âD*mn it! How is he so powerful?â
âI canât even defeat him with 2,999 golden cores. Whatâs the point of having so many, then?â
He was cornered. He only managed to infer the great gap between him and an Immortal Monarch or
Immortal Emperor in close quarters combat. He had used Medusaâs Aegis Shield and wanted to repeat
the same trick to petrify that man but to no avail. It was because the avatar on Medusaâs Aegis Shield
was hidden, and he did not know how to activate it.
âYou canât escape!â The man finally blocked Alex in a valley.
His entire body, including his head, had previously been wrapped in a black robe, but now he took off
his hood, revealing the real face within⦠It did not turn out to be a skull, but a real face with complete
features that looked particularly handsome with a bizarre aura.
âHow is that possible?!â Alex exclaimed.
All the creatures that entered the Underworld would become skeletons.
Why could he keep his flesh?
Alex, however, soon noticed that this was not real flesh but a kind of sorcery, a mystic art that
transformed the facial features in flesh and blood. Hence, he could only look so handsome to the point
that he should not exist in the world, like a deity descending into the mortal realm.
âD*mn! Thatâs drop dead gorgeous!â
Alex turned to complain. He could neither escape nor did he have energy. Moreover, he had a few
more broken bones on him and did not have time for recovery. So, he would genuinely meet his demise
if he were to escape again.
âAre you not running away at last?â The man sneered, and the transformed human face was full of
disdain.
Shortly afterward, he became infuriated. âYou know what? Goldie was my soulmate. I only managed to
raise Goldie to be that huge after living for 1,300 years. It was my best companion when I was lonely.â
Alex froze for a brief moment, totally puzzled. âYou treat a bird as your companion. Can a man and a
bird do that kind of deed?â
The man was not furious, but he smiled. âBut since itâs dead, so be it! Itâs because it would be useless
soon. I can get out of here with the holy tool of ancient Buddhism, so Iâll consider letting you off the
hook if you hand it over.â
Alex learned about a piece of important information from his mouth.
âWait How can you confirm that you can leave this place with the holy tool of ancient Buddhism?â
âOf course, I can confirm that,â the man said, âHurry up. Iâm at the end of my patience. Youâve killed so
many ingenious cultivators from Galaxy Nova, and you even murdered my soulmate. I was going to
grind your bones into ashes, but now Iâm willing to offer you a chance. Remember to grasp it.â
Alex nodded. âAlright, but I think you better die here.â
âWhat? You really refuse to be convinced until you are faced with the grim reality!â
He was infuriated and was about to make a move when Alex stomped the ground, causing it to
tremble.
The surroundings abruptly underwent drastic changes. It was illusionary and full of mist, and Alexâs
figure disappeared into thin air. The Galaxy Nova expert swung at him with the halberd, only to hit an
expanse of mountain rocks.
