Chapter 43: 43 - Do You Have Any Last Words?

Taking advantage of the chaos, Rudy led the clan members and quickly fled. Rank III should be able to fly, but not everyone knew how to fly, so Rudy and the other rank III mage could only run.

Rank III’s speed was much higher than rank II, so the two of them quickly left the four people behind by a huge distance.

Seeing the dungeon exit right in front of them, the two of them felt that they would definitely escape. They only needed to keep running for five more seconds...

Before they could even breathe a sigh of relief, the light circled around them and stopped right in front of them, blocking their way. A blood-covered face that neither of them wanted to see at all appeared right in front of them.

"You!"

Blood kept dripping down from the Heavenly Dao Sword, causing both of their pupils to shrink. They did not dare to turn around and look behind them at this moment, but the silence behind them was a reality neither of them wanted to face.

There were still four mages running for their lives behind them, so there was no way it could be this quiet. The only explanation was that King had killed all four of them in an instant.

Seeing that the Heavenly Dao Sword was a little dirty, King flicked his hand, sending all the blood flying toward Rudy. His eyes did not even bother to glance at Rudy.

"I already said I don’t understand pig language. If you want to say something, speak human language."

King’s sharp eyes narrowed as he stared at the two of them, making them shudder.

The two of them were no longer young either, but for the first time in their lives, they felt this suffocating pressure. This was not the killing intent they had seen countless times in their lives, but something else.

It felt as if the young man before them had now transformed into a massive phantom, like a god looking down at ants with not the slightest bit of compassion in his eyes. This seemed to be more than just a difference in strength, but a difference in the level of existence.

Even though their rational minds knew clearly that King could reach rank IV at most based on the strength he had displayed, the fear in their hearts did not care about logic.

"My clan..."

Rudy’s face visibly aged, his whole body trembling with rage. His teeth clenched so tightly that they began to bleed. His bloodshot eyes stared at King as if he wanted to tear him apart and devour him alive.

"How dare you destroy my clan?! How dare you destroy more than a hundred years of our efforts?! You will die!"

Terrifying mana erupted from Rudy, causing his wand to shine brightly. His body quickly withered as if he were squeezing every last bit of energy out of every cell.

An extremely violent lightning power swirled around his body and gathered together, forming the image of a gigantic serpent more ferocious than ever.

With no way to survive anymore, Rudy wanted King to suffer even if he had to die. This was the most powerful magic Rudy had ever used in his life and also his final spell.

Seeing Rudy go all out like this, the other rank III mage also gritted his teeth. He knew there was no way to escape today because in this narrow space, a swordsman like King had a huge advantage over a mage.

He drained all of his mana and poured it into a single attack. The wind magic released from his wand gathered together and kept spinning.

The violent power from it, even without making direct contact, could make King feel as if he were about to be blown away from dozens of meters away, as if it were a gigantic tornado forcibly compressed into a smaller size.

"Go to hell!"

The two desperate killing moves of the two rank III mages carried destructive power capable of threatening King’s life even while he was in the Heavenly Dao Swordsman state.

[Master! Quickly use a divine skill!]

The system was panicking. These two attacks had drained the lives of two rank III individuals, and if King took them head-on, even if he did not die, he would be seriously injured.

King’s eyes had been intensely focused on analyzing them ever since they began preparing their moves. Looking at the two violent attacks rushing straight toward him, his eyes locked onto the point that seemed to be the most fragile.

"Third Divine Skill - Void Piercing Sword!"

The sword qi slash spun like a bullet and shot straight into the middle of the enemy’s two powerful spells, immediately creating a deadlock. The energy scattered in all directions, causing this dark corridor to shatter. Rocks and dirt flew everywhere, and the collapse could no longer be stopped.

King continuously poured spiritual power into this divine skill to push back the enemy’s attacks, but even after struggling for more than ten seconds, he still could not push them back. The enormous amount of spiritual power he continuously poured into this divine skill was now even more than using the Third Divine Skill twice in a row.

"Go to hell!"

The two opposing mages roared at the top of their lungs. Their painful screams and rage seemed to give extraordinary strength to the magic pushing back the divine skill.

"Tsk... Just a bunch of trash and you still dream of defeating me? Even if it’s one against two, the winner can only ever be me! Disappear, you trash!"

King’s deafening roar echoed as if it could shake the entire space. His two golden pupils shone brightly like two miniature suns.

The muscles throughout his body tensed, and his spiritual power erupted violently, causing the feeling of exhaustion and pain to continuously invade his mind. Fighting at such a high intensity without stopping had pushed even his powerful body to the point where it was about to ’give out’.

But this could not really be considered a problem either. After killing these two, the system would help him level up anyway.

Leveling up once might not be enough to recover, but leveling up a bunch of times would definitely make these minor feelings of exhaustion and pain disappear.

King’s sword qi slash suddenly became much more powerful, breaking apart part of the gigantic serpent and swirling wind.

It continued rushing toward that rank III mage and directly blew his entire body away. His death came so quickly that the mage did not even have time to scream and curse King with a single word.

"Do you have any last words?"
