Chapter 2579: Chapter 2577: Mysteriously Counter-Killed

Ethan Smith’s fist landed on the layer of blood scab, and a portion of the force was evidently absorbed by it, causing the power transmitted to the bodies of these two from the Demon clan to be greatly reduced.

“Haha, this kid has strong physical strength, it seems his Divine Soul has absorbed quite a bit of Holy Energy! Quickly, kill this kid.”

Demon Flame’s eyes lit up, and his breathing became noticeably hurried.

He and Ghost Light looked at Ethan Smith with the gaze of a hungry wolf staring at its prey.

The two immediately launched a furious assault on Ethan Smith, leveraging their bodily advantages, and didn’t hesitate to exchange blows even if it meant getting injured themselves.

In less than five minutes, multiple wounds appeared on Ethan Smith’s body.

Blood continuously seeped from these wounds, and Ethan felt his control over his body gradually weaken.

Bam!

Ghost Light leaped up, his Demon Body bent like a bow.

Then, utilizing the power of his body, he delivered a fierce knee strike to Ethan Smith’s back.

His knee was covered with a thick layer of blood scab, and when it collided with Ethan’s back, Ethan’s back was instantly torn open.

His body staggered under the impact of the tremendous force.

Haha, die! You little brat!

Demon Flame rushed over with a sinister smile, intending to smash Ethan’s head directly.

Sss!

He only heard a strange sound, as if it came from within his own body to his ears.

At this moment, Ethan Smith held a dagger that seemed to be made of bone, stabbing it into his side.

Then, he thrust it upward, severing all his internal organs and heart directly.

His fist, which was supposed to smash Ethan’s head, lost most of its strength.

“Save me!”

Demon Flame cried out in a trembling voice, realizing that as his organs ruptured.

His Divine Soul began to weaken, and he couldn’t even raise his hand.

In an instant, Ethan felt a gentle force melding into his Divine Soul.

The body, which had felt heavily injured earlier, now felt slightly lighter, and the injuries improved somewhat as the Holy Energy entered.

“It’s your turn.”

Ethan stared coldly at Ghost Light before him and said with a smirk.

“No, how can you see through Demon Flame’s body’s weak points? Your eyes are peculiar, how can you use techniques here?”

Ghost Light gazed fearfully at the eye on Ethan’s forehead and shouted in panic.

Go ask in Hell!

A cold gleam flashed in Ethan’s eyes, aided by the Nine Heavens Condensing Pupil.

Their bodies appeared transparent before him, the weakest spot of Holy Energy in their bodies showing up as the weakest part.

Moreover, their movements seemed to slow down under the watch of the Nine Heavens Condensing Pupil, allowing Ethan to hold his ground even while being besieged by the two.

Under the intimidation of these eyes, Ghost Light became more cautious and fearful, dreading being instantly killed by Ethan.

His injuries began to accumulate, and his Divine Soul visibly weakened.

“Lord Maximus, save me quickly! I can’t hold on any longer.”

Ghost Light cried out loudly.

“If you don’t want to die, fight him to the death.”

Another demon from the Demon clan coldly watched the battle, seemingly uninterested in intervening.

Waiting for a chance? That’s better for me.

Though Ethan was battling Ghost Light, his Nine Heavens Condensing Pupil was relentlessly focused on Maximus.

This demon was slowly retreating, without any signs of rendering aid.

“Die!”

Ethan, taking a hit from Ghost Light’s knee, fiercely jabbed the dagger into Ghost Light’s heart.

Ghost Light’s body collapsed to the ground, and a cloud of gas emerged from his soul, slowly drifting into Ethan’s Divine Soul.

At this moment, Ethan’s forehead suddenly felt intensely sore and swollen.

A stabbing pain erupted in his divine sense, then the eye on his forehead slowly closed and disappeared.

“Your pupil seems to last only a short period, being able to identify the weak spots on Demon Flame and Ghost Light’s bodies is thanks to these eyes, right? Moreover, these eyes seem to predict the next move.”

The retreating Maximus halted his movements.

“But now this eye is gone.”

Somehow, he now held a bone almost like a cylindrical shape, with the tip sharpened.

The entire bone was crafted like a spear, which, considering their first day in the Holy Kingdom, was quite a remarkable weapon.

So fast!

Maximus began to sprint, his speed so rapid that his form seemed to leave afterimages.

“He must have used all the power he’s absorbed to strengthen his legs!”

In an instant, the spear pierced through the air with a sharp whistling sound.

It was unavoidable!

Ethan fiercely countered with the dagger in his hand, clashing it against the spear tip.

Snap!

Under the impact of the terrifying speed, Ethan’s arm made a crisp sound.

His right arm was fractured by this dreadful force.

Whoosh!

Maximus didn’t give Ethan a moment’s respite, the Bone Spur in his hand seemingly transforming into a spear.

Again targeting Ethan, aiming directly at his vital points.

Sss!

Ethan barely dodged the Bone Spur aimed at his heart, letting it pierce through his side.

The tremendous force instantly broke several of Ethan’s ribs; Maximus’ attack was swift and accurate, filled with destructive power.

In terms of strength and speed, he had the upper hand, causing severe damage to Ethan with just two blows.

Ethan’s heart sank as he realized that as his blood flowed out.

His Divine Soul Power began to weaken; the strength controlling his body started to wane, just like what had happened to Demon Flame and Ghost Light before.

Die!

At this moment, Maximus’ eyes were like torches, filled with battle intent and bloodthirsty desire.

Once again, the Bone Spur in his hand was thrust at Ethan’s head like lightning.

This strike, both in speed and strength, was even further enhanced.

It turned out that Maximus had been reserving strength to be wary of Ethan pulling a trick.

Now, seeing his two strikes succeed, Maximus no longer held back.

The Bone Spur in his hand condensed his greatest power.

Within the Bone Spur lay a certain killing intention.

“No! There’s no dodging this!”

Ethan’s face changed drastically, this rapidly accelerating Bone Spur left him no time to react.

Boom!

His head was directly pierced through by the Bone Spur.

“Village Elder, please save this big brother, he just rescued us, I’m begging you!”

The boy’s body trembled, hiding behind the old man.

Beside the two, without anyone knowing when, there was a young man reeking of alcohol, his hair messy, with some greasy patches visible, seemingly unwashed for days.

Glug glug, Maxwell, are you calling me?

The young man was dazed for a moment before reacting.

“Oh oh, he’s alright, he’s alright, the big brother will soon revive.”

The village elder rubbed his red-dusted nose, speaking perfunctorily.
