Armipotent - Chapter 1567: Hunter and Prey 7
Tang Shaoyang looked around, finding himself in another forest, lusher than the previous one. For a domain, this was too ordinary. Nothing is out of the ordinary in this domain. But he was aware that regardless of appearance, a domain made the user who activated the domain stronger. Not just in terms of the stats, but a certain ability as well.
“You are finally falling into my trap, Tang Shaoyang! You are now my prey!”
Mourad’s voice echoed in the forest. Tang Shaoyang did not know where Mourad was based on the voice. On top of that, Mourad sounded awfully confident for someone who ran away without fighting previously. There must be something about Mourad that made Mourad confident within this domain.
Tang Shaoyang chuckled, “Am I your prey? That’s funny coming from someone who abandoned his friends without fighting.”
He used Chaos Eyes and was surprised that his Chaos Eyes did not work effectively. His wide vision was still there, but he could not see through the trees. Something was obstructing his vision.
“You can say whatever you want right now, but you will still die in my hand!”
The ambiance in the forest changed, and the chilly wind gushed as the atmosphere turned gloomy. The subtle change, but Tang Shaoyang managed to catch it.
He was not worried about Mourad because of his [Absolute Sense]. Even though he could not detect where Mourad was, the moment Mourad tried to attack him. His Absolute Sense would do wonders.
‘While at it, let’s try World Destroyer’s other skills.’
Tang Shaoyang activated [World Siphon] first. He really had no clue what the skill meant.
[You need to touch a living target to activate the skill!]
The System notified him how to use the skill. That was helpful even though the System was not really helpful with the skill’s explanation.
Then he followed with another skill, [World Decay]. He did not notice at first what the skill did, but then he saw a flow of energy coming out from the trees and the ground. The aura from the energy was ominous, and it was dark gray in color. The energy enveloped the blade of his battle axe.
The red ground turned gray as if it was dying. The strong tree’s trunk slowly grayed out, cracking. The lush green leaves turned gray and dried out as the branches withered. It looked like it would break with just a simple soft touch.
The skill took the life force from the surroundings, but he did not know what to do with it. It kept taking the life force from the ground and trees around them. The tree died one by one, as the withered ground also expanded.
“What are you doing in my Domain!?” Mourad’s voice echoed.
Following the voice, his Absolute Sense warned him of danger from behind. He turned around and took a full swing with his battle-axe.
Mourad was in the air, with his katar. There was an image of the red tiger behind him, roaring. Meanwhile, Tang Shaoyang just swung his battle axe with a full swing.
Mourad was not expecting Tang Shaoyang to turn around. His facial expression told that, surprised. He could dodge the strike, but he was confident in his skill. He aimed the tip of his Katar at the battle axe blade.
The moment the two weapons clashed. The ominous energy around the battle axe burst out, blasting Mourad. The tiger roar also abruptly stopped as Mourad’s body flung backward. He crashed into several trees before crashing to the ground.
Tang Shaoyang raised his right eyebrow, surprised himself that the brute strike was strong enough to send Mourad flying. He felt the touch from the class, but there was no pressure from the clash. That meant his full swing with just Word Decay was strong enough to overwhelm Mourad. He did not even apply [Absolute Domination Energy] on the strike.
[Maybe because your attributes are higher than his, much higher. Your level is over level 30000. I don’t think these people have the same attributes as you. You are not supposed to compete with these rookies. Isn’t that what those administrators call you guys?]
Tang Shaoyang nodded his head understandingly. He thought the levels did not really affect the God Rank that much, but that made sense. If it was a hundred-level difference or even three hundred-level difference. That might not affect the outcome of a fight, but what if the level difference was 10000 levels?
On top of that, he used Spirit Integration, his bloodline transformation, and as well as Wrath of Slayer to increase his attributes even further. The clear difference in attributes became obvious even if they were on the same rank.
“Where is he? There’s no way he would die from that single strike, right?” It had been a while, but he did not sense movement from where Mourad crashed. Then he noticed the domain became unstable as well.
“I thought I was the prey, what’s wrong, Mordad?”
[It’s Mourad.] Avyn had a better memory than Tang Shaoyang.
“Doesn’t matter. Do I have to remember every person I kill?” Tang Shaoyang shrugged, approaching the spot where Mourad crashed.
“You! What did you do to my hand!?” A hysterical voice came from behind the dust. It was Mourad’s voice, but his voice was not as confident as before. He was panicking.
With a sweep of his battle axe, the dust disappeared, revealing a sorry figure on the ground.
Mourad was lying down, holding his right with his left hand. His entire right hand which he used to clash against Tang Shaoyang turned black. It turned black, leaving just bone and skin, barely hanging on his body. The Katar came on its own because his hand was so small.
There were several vials around Mourad. He tried to use a potion, but nothing was working. The antidote, elixir, and potion did not work. That was what made him panic.
Even Tang Shaoyang was surprised to see what happened to Mourad’s right arm. He did not know the skill was so sinister to have such an effect.
