Chapter 569
GDK 569: Father and Son Fighting Shoulder to Shoulder
No one else besides Han Shuo, he who made and deployed the formation, could be more familiar with the mechanisms within. As Little Skeleton and Han Shuo were mentally connected with each other, by following Han Shuo’s instructions, Little Skeleton naturally wouldn’t receive the negative effects of the formation. As soon as they entered the formation, they flew towards Leviathan’s location. Leviathan, lightning bolts sparking from his head to toe and the sound of thunder rumbling from his body, was circling ten or so towering stelae, resisting the disorderly attacks coming from the surroundings using his divine energy.
He was inside a small-scale formation of hallucination. Any uninformed, reckless intruder would sink deep into a land of fantasy. Although Leviathan was a lowgod, he knew nothing about the demonic arts that originated from another dimension. Inside the land of fantasy, all kinds of scenes and scenarios played on repeat in his mind.
Illusions could cause confusion to the mind. Leviathan saw countless characters that he had previously murdered charging towards him with threatening gestures. Those events that were etched in his memory, as well as frightening events he deliberately tried to forget, at this moment, replayed in his mind with incredible clarity. It was constant torment, ravaging his mind.
All those existences who could become a Demon King were cold-blooded, merciless characters with incredibly staunch hearts. Had it been an ordinary person who repeatedly experienced such negative scenes played and replayed, they would have lost their minds long ago. Leviathan, however, had countless experiences under his belt and wasn’t as feeble as an ordinary person. He could still hold firmly on to his mind. As long as there was divine energy in his body, he felt as though he had boundless energy. With his own willpower, he forcibly shattered scene after scene.
Leviathan, a lowgod, obviously wasn’t particularly affected by the formation. Should this trend continue, as long as he walked through all those scenes and continued to shatter them rapidly, he would be able to walk out from the land of fantasy unharmed very soon.
Han Shuo inwardly lamented the might of lowgods. Then, he dove into the formation together with Little Skeleton. Through the mental connection between him and Little Skeleton, Little Skeleton managed to completely avoid the effects of the formation.
The two with perfect rapport unhurriedly approached towards Leviathan. Han Shuo’s avatar transformed back into the Demonslayer Edge and was once again in Han Shuo’s hands. Little Skeleton wielded an enormous bone spur and concealed his Domain of Divinity. He stealthily surrounded Leviathan along with Han Shuo.
As the distance between them slowly grew closer and closer, Leviathan was sending out bursts of undirected divine energy while facing against his hallucinations. Before both Han Shuo and Little Skeleton even got close, he suddenly sensed an intense aura of death approaching him. Out of nowhere, a scene abruptly replayed in his mind: An Abyssal expert possessing enormous elemental energy of death that he had slain many years ago was recklessly launching a final finishing blow at him. That battle had a profound influence on Leviathan. Therefore, when the aura of death appeared, his mind very naturally replayed this scene of what happened back then. Although Leviathan was unaware that he was deep inside a hallucination, he still had one thought on his mind – I shall kill anyone that gets in my way!
This was the principle he had based his life on for countless years!
At this moment, Han Shuo did not bother to inspect the surrounding conditions. He pressed his unoccupied left hand on the hilt of the Demonslayer Edge. His powerful physical strength, the enigmatic demonic yuan, the violent divine energy of destruction, the eerie and sinister energies of fierce souls within the Demonslayer Edge simultaneously erupted in that instance.
Before Leviathan could gather his divine energy, a crisp creak sounded. Leviathan’s fist was chopped into two with his fingers completely fragmented. After that strike, Han Shuo’s proceeded with making an upward stroke. The Demonslayer Edge traveled in an arc and slashed Leviathan’s neck.
Arhh… Leviathan shrieked in unbearable pain. The emotion of fear suddenly appeared in his eyes. He hastily flew backward to retreat.
Suddenly, an intense energy of death creeped up from behind him. Judging by how frightening the energy was, Leviathan understood that a lowgod cultivating in the element of death was present behind him.
Leviathan was unaware of Little Skeleton’s existence. Therefore, it wasn’t surprising that he would take Little Skeleton mounting an attack from behind to be another Han Shuo who was on the verge of becoming a lowgod. His heart trembled. He knew that everything in this battle pointed to a disaster befalling him. Perhaps he had again recalled that dream in which he faced Bechymos, as his scar and post-traumatic stress seemed to affect him yet again instilling in him a feeling of timidity and helplessness.
With Little Skeleton mounting a sneak attack from behind and Han Shuo’s assault from the front, Leviathan’s front and rear had been blocked out. He could only retreat by moving sideways. Leviathan leaned to one side. When he nearly transformed into a lighting bolt and ran out from Han Shuo’s range of attack, Han Shuo’s two arms bizarrely extended at high-speed. The Demonslayer Edge that was already whooshing towards his neck at high speed moved ever faster thanks to Han Shuo’s arms rapidly extending. Leviathan simply could not dodge it.
When horror had finally filled Leviathan’s mind, the Demonslayer Edge lashed at Leviathan’s neck with precision. Swish! The Demonslayer Edge proceeded to skewer straight through Leviathan’s neck. Crack! Immediately after, as Leviathan’s energy declined in a split second, Little Skeleton’s sneak attack with his bone spur managed to pierce through Leviathan’s body.
“What does it taste like?” Han Shuo had an undisturbed face but his eyes were filled with chilling emotions. In the terrified gaze of Leviathan, Han Shuo flexed the muscles on his right arm and cast Leviathan’s blood-drenched torso far into the distance.
