Death… And Me

Chapter 1035 - Leveling The Playfield

Roan then quickly looked at Hunfe, who was still fighting his clones. Unsurprisingly, he was winning since both clones didnʼt have real weapons and werenʼt as strong as Roan himself. It had always been like this, especially in the Realm of Gods, where the restrictions on oneʼs power were much greater.

*Zush!*

Roan immediately used the Enhancement skill on his legs and shot in Hunfeʼs direction. At the same time, he controlled his almost destroyed clones to do a suicidal attack. Caught by the clonesʼ sudden struggle, Hunfe was forced back, which sent him into Roanʼs net.

ʼDeath Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!ʼ

Hunfe was taken aback when Roan appeared in his Divine Sense, thinking that he was still dealing with Gian. He only had enough time to glance in the direction where Roan came from and see Gianʼs body lying on the ground. ”Fuck!”

Following that, he activated his defenses and used a strong wide-area skill.

ʼLightning Discharge!ʼ

That was a special ability of his Lokren Race. They were able to store Lightning Element in their bodies to a certain extent, and that extent would increase as their cultivation went up. If a dangerous situation appeared, they could release this lightning all at once, which even had the possibility to kill their opponent. Itʼs just that they would take quite a few months to replenish this power again. In short, it was more or less a last-ditch attack.

Fortunately for Roan, he didnʼt lack experience whatsoever. He felt the huge danger that would appear if he got close to Hunfe at this moment and immediately reacted.

ʼDeath Style, First Energy Form, Shadow Bind!ʼ

Roan didnʼt use Shadow Bind on Hunfe, though. Instead, he summoned them behind himself, quickly pulling him away while he himself did his best to change directions.

*Kabrum!*

Sure enough, Hunfeʼs Lighting Discharge came out, wiping everything around him out of existence. There werenʼt even traces of Roanʼs clones once Hunfe was done.

Hunfe looked around and saw Roan in the distance, which was enough for him to sigh in relief. Roan was quite charred, showing that his retreat wasnʼt quick enough. He wasnʼt seriously injured, but the Lightning Discharge definitely took its toll on Roan.

*Spurt!*

Unfortunately for Hunfe, he should have paid attention to another thing other than the black-haired twin.

*Arrgh!*

Hunfe looked at his right shoulder and saw the enormous hole there. In an instant, he immediately recognized what hit him. ʼThe slaughtering formation!ʼ He was right. One of the formationʼs projectiles just hit him as soon as his Lightning Discharge was over. Usually, he would be quick enough to react. Sadly, most of his attention was taken up by Roan.

Hunfe wasnʼt the only one, though. Itʼs just that Roan wasnʼt known for letting his guard down. The moment he retreated with Shadow Bind, he saw one of the formationʼs projectiles heading his way. With that, he controlled Shadow Bind once again to dodge it while retreating.

Roan, of course, didnʼt let the chance pass up and launched himself at Hunfe. He might be injured, but that wasnʼt enough to stop him. At the same time, he dispelled the bind holding him and resummoned them in Hunfeʼs direction. Since Hunfe saw him using it already, it would be useless to keep it for a surprise attack like he did with Gian.

Hunfe was in no way to fight back, so he tried to flee. Too bad that Roan was now faster than him as Hunfe found it difficult to control his Divine Energy because of the injury. Let alone when those shadow vines kept coming out of the ground to try to grab him.

In just a few seconds, Roan reached him and attacked once again.

ʼDeath Style, Second Form, Crescent Moon!ʼ

The ray of Light and Dark Element came in Hunfeʼs direction, ready to take his head.

”I-I give up!”

*Bang!*

At that moment, Roanʼs Crescent Moon was hit by something, dissipating just a few centimeters in front of Hunfeʼs eyes. As for Hunfe, he touched his neck, just to be sure it was still there.

”Hunfe Calegal from Praler Sect is disqualified.”

An elder of the City Lordʼs mansion then appeared beside Hunfe, immediately taking him away right after.

Roan couldnʼt care less, though. The moment Hunfe said, ʼI give up,ʼ Roan already turned around and began to dash in the direction of the other participants.

On the watching illusory formations, everyone was left speechless with Roanʼs display. It turns out that Roan didnʼt even need to rely on that Death World of his. He was more than strong enough to fight Middle Stage Saint Realm cultivators on his own, and more than one at that. Then again, his Death World was also part of his strength.

Fabio, who was watching the competition from inside, felt even more intrigued by the twins, exclaiming inwardly, ʼSuch strength! Perhaps I can use them for that...ʼ

Roan, of course, wasnʼt the only one fighting. With the blueish environment that ensured no one could hide, the other remaining Saint Realm cultivators were also fighting each other. With the two eliminations Roan achieved, the numbers went down to five. No, to be more precise, that number was down to three! In the other two battles that happened, a conclusion had been reached as well.

Finally, those three met up at the center of the battlefield while keeping an eye for the formationʼs projectiles. They also made sure to keep a good distance away from each other at first. It went without saying that the two Middle Stage Saint Realm cultivators, Liafel and Tuniso, were surprised to see Roan there. After all, they did see when Roan was jointly attacked by Gian and Hunfe. Itʼs just that their battles were separated from theirs, so they didnʼt know the outcome until now.

All three cultivators were quite injured from their own struggles...or so it was supposed to be.

Suddenly, Light Element gathered around Roan, and a heart-shattering sight played in front of Tuniso and Liafelʼs eyes. Roan... could use the same healing skill as Rean. In just a few moments, Roan was back to peak condition... if one didnʼt consider the amount of Divine Soul Power that he has used until now. Well, the others werenʼt faring that well either.

*Clang!*

Roan deflected another projectile before lifting his White Star to point at those two, telling them, ”Donʼt tell me itʼs unfair for me to heal myself since both of you are one entire realm above me.. Letʼs just say I leveled the playfield. Now then, shall we have a bit more fun?”
