Faced with extreme fear, Shan Kui’s body began to change. His flesh and blood swelled, turning him from his robust form into a grotesque monster. The flesh distorted his features, making him unsightly and terrifying. Only a pair of small eyes, needle-like in appearance, showed a venomous glare.
On the day the apocalypse erupted, Shan Kui witnessed countless families torn apart. A small community of only a few hundred residents was ambushed. Uncountable insects crawled from beneath the earth, dragging men, women, the elderly, and even children below ground, the air filled with blood, dismembered limbs, and screams. All of these were etched into Shan Kui’s mind.
Having witnessed so many tragedies, Shan Kui’s heart was long eroded. From that moment, he vowed that no matter what, he would survive!
Shan Kui’s momentum surged. At this moment, he burned his own power, attempting one last desperate struggle.
On the other side, the Inferior Demon also moved. After accumulating its strength, it swung its dozens of arms, launching a suffocating barrage towards Shan Kui!
Each of those arms belonged to warriors, and since they were already dead, they knew no pain. As they moved, they were powerful and unstoppable!
Utterly terrifying.
Such a horrifying power strikes fear deep within the heart.
"No retreat!"
Shan Kui roared, facing the sudden monster before him. He abruptly extended his right hand, fearlessly slamming it towards the creature’s fists.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The Inferior Demon was armed with dozens of warrior arms. An ordinary person would be instantly overwhelmed, but Shan Kui, in his unleashed state, countered each punch with the speed of a thunderbolt.
One can see how terrifying Shan Kui is!
All this time...
He was the only one capable of battling the Inferior Demon to such a standstill!
Not only that, the Inferior Demon’s many fists always found some opportunity to strike Shan Kui. But astonishingly, the originally crimson imprints vanished within seconds, as if they never existed.
Regeneration!
Chen Feng’s guess was correct; his identity was indeed Shan Kui from the black list!
However, what Chen Feng focused on was not this, but his eyes fixed intently on Shan Kui’s body. After a moment, he softly said, "Double awakening?"
Double awakening.
As the name suggests, some exceptionally talented beings, after awakening, do not just gain one ability, but possibly two, or even more, making them akin to heirs of the creator, bypassing many detours that other warriors face.
Shan Kui possessed two abilities.
The first was regeneration, and the second was similar to Wei Xun’s ability. During combat, he could change forms into a flesh-covered monster. Although the destructive force increase wasn’t large, his defense skyrocketed, making him virtually invulnerable!
A master!
No wonder Shan Kui ranked so high on the black list; possessing increased defense and body regeneration, a weaker warrior couldn’t even harm Shan Kui if they stood still!
"Bang!" Another punch from the Inferior Demon slammed into Shan Kui, and astonishingly, his flesh seemed to soften, clinging tightly to those fists.
Trap!
Shan Kui intentionally let the Inferior Demon hit him, then used his body to bind the enemy!
"Here, I make the rules!"
Though Shan Kui had regenerative ability, it couldn’t be maintained indefinitely. Once his strength was depleted, the effect would significantly diminish.
There was no escape.
It was time to risk it all!
Shan Kui, exchanging injury for injury, finally seized this hard-earned opportunity. Observing the Inferior Demon before him, he gathered all his remaining power into his fist. The force was so rampant it seemed to freeze the air, creating an illusion among the spectators that a meteor was crashing into Earth.
"Boom!"
With a vicious punch from above, he struck the Inferior Demon’s neck, immediately numbing its entire body, making it collapse on the ground.
In the face of such tremendous force, all the arms on the Inferior Demon drooped down, unable to lift again.
However.
The Inferior Demon’s arms might be immobilized, but it still had its head.
For a malevolent creature like the Inferior Demon, every part of its body is a deadly weapon!
The Inferior Demon tilted its head, and in an instant, its flexible neck lifted its head, crashing directly into Shan Kui’s chest!
The back-and-forth between them was something no ordinary person could endure, yet they had fought for so long, showing just how perilous it was!
"Undead Mage, come out for me too!"
Watching the battlefield change drastically, Chen Feng’s face turned cold. He shouted angrily at another rift, as a Summoner, his strategy was originally to crush enemies, and now he wasn’t going to worry about one-on-one combats. Capturing Shan Kui quickly was his top priority!
The necromancer aura from the rift grew stronger, and a moment later, the loyal Undead Mage appeared at Chen Feng’s side.
Undead Mage!
As long as the soul fire within its eye sockets doesn’t extinguish, it is neither rotten nor dead!
"Dullness Skill!"
"Weakness Skill!"
Descending in an instant, the Undead Mage immediately raised its bone staff. Although its melee abilities were weak, it excelled in dark magic.
These spells, like mist, instantly enveloped Shan Kui!
Shan Kui intended to rise and fight, but his body suddenly halted, his speed halved. Not only that, his punches weakened, as if utterly drained of energy, unable to muster any spirit!
He frowned and looked, only to see another figure beside Chen Feng.
Skeleton!
The horror was a fleshless skeleton!
Shan Kui trembled violently, his hands spasmed. For a master with dual awakenings to lose their composure like this showed how turbulent his inner emotions were.
How did this young man do it? How did he gather such a terrifying and gruesome lineup of allies?
Inconceivable!
Once this thought took root, it was like a tree rooted deep underground, impossible to shake off!
With the Inferior Demon lurking ahead, and the Undead Mage ambushing from behind, all this had already exhausted Shan Kui’s courage.
"I..." Shan Kui’s lips moved, his body slumped as if giving up, adopting a let-it-be attitude.
"I don’t know you... There must be some misunderstanding between us. Negotiation! We can talk terms!" Shan Kui’s expression was extremely heavy, as if making an important decision; he truly admitted defeat.
Black list master.
Double awakening!
This kind of master, even more frightening than Yang Zheng, now showed such low posture, completely unresisting. This surprised Chen Feng quite a bit.
However, Chen Feng quickly regained his cool. He neither refused nor agreed but instead showed a meaningful smile: "Oh? You want to negotiate? Words alone don’t count; I want a pledge. If you want to trade with me, show some sincerity. Those people around you are your sins; kill them, and let me see how sincere you really are!"
