Chapter 1371: Chapter 1369: Joining Forces (Part 2)

“Instant Decapitation” differs greatly from “Progressive Beheading”.

The former indicates that the defense has not worked at all, and there is no feedback or reaction time.

The latter indicates that the defense has played a certain role, providing tactile feedback to the subject and gaining some reaction time.

The gap between [The King] and the rest is as wide as a chasm, insurmountable… but that doesn’t mean it’s untouchable.

In a world brimming with countless beings, perhaps there are one or two whose existence cannot be defined by normal logic, whose very presence seems designed to break conventional definitions and lead the world to ascend to greater heights.

Green makes use of the Mythical Level “Chara Insect Shield” in combination with the “Mad Scriptures” stored in the Abyss Library.

As he merges the Insect Shield with his left and right arms.

A faint Moon Seal appears on Green’s forehead, stimulating his inner potential to the utmost.

The Moon Lady has completely integrated herself within Green’s body.

Optimizing, arranging, and coordinating the transportation of the inner energy, she provides her own Demon abilities appropriately, enabling Green to truly exert the strength of the Mythical Peak.

Such a constructed defense can justly be called [Absolute Defense] in the Mythical Field.

Against less aggressive monarchs, it might block everything completely… it’s a pity that the current opponent represents the [Guilt World], dedicating everything to “the chop”, reaching the pinnacle in offensive capability.

However.

Green never thought to directly block the Beheading King’s attack.

He hoped that the “Insect Shield” born out of this method would offer some hindrance, not be instantly severed.

As it turns out, it was effective.

The chop strike did not break through the Insect Shield immediately; there was a process to the severing.

From the moment of contact with the shield to complete decapitation, there was an interval of about 0.07 seconds.

Taking advantage of this interval.

Before the blade could affect the head, Green successfully completed “suicide”.

Yes, the tossing of Green’s head was not caused by a chop strike, but by Self-Beheading… creating the false illusion of being killed.

Three seconds after completing his suicide.

As the surrounding area was covered by Green’s [True Abyss Demonic Prison], openings of the abyss were everywhere.

Accompanied by a wave of Madness Whispers, over a dozen Greens crawled out from different abyssal openings, tongues dragging outside their bodies, rusing towards the center where the Beheading King stood at utmost speed.

This left the Beheading King quite perplexed, “Hmm? The Beheading just now was ineffective?”

With doubt, another strike… [The Circle]

The ring-shaped chop light spread out rapidly like ripples.

Whoosh!

The approaching Greens and their duplicates were simultaneously sliced at the waist.

Severed Tentacles, shattered guts, insect shells smeared with slime, scattered continuously.

…

Abyss Breeding Room.

In an area teeming with stacked fungal spores, thousands upon thousands of Green’s duplicates were bred, each with a specific origin.

Providing sustenance for Green, a special abyssal life form, for various occasions and infinite regeneration.

Seemingly invincible abilities are limited to same-tier opponents.

When facing [The King], who can easily change the rules, even duplicates cannot ensure Green’s undying… Once struck at the crucial point, not only will the body shatter, the essence of the abyss will also be affected.

Green must complete suicide before he is executed.

Using suicide to rapidly exhaust duplicate bodies, constantly approaching the adversary and attracting the Beheading King’s attention to the greatest extent.

Boom!

The abyss trembles, a part of the abyss completely collapses.

As Green’s consciousness regenerates rapidly through the Pregnant Body, a slash wound approximately ten centimeters deep immediately opens up around his waist.

“Damn! I was just a little too slow…”

Even so, Green forcefully covers the wound, rapidly emerging from the abyss.

Three seconds upon emerging.

Boom!

Another chop strike spanning a kilometer slashes across the abyss; Green’s freshly emerged body is already executed… As he regenerates anew in the Pregnant Body, a diagonally downward slash wound appears on his shoulder, exposing flesh and bone.

Thus, going back and forth, expending no less than 186 highly valuable duplicate bodies,

with the Soul sustaining dozens of slash wounds. One could say Green was hopping back and forth on Death God’s scythe, where even the slightest misstep could end up being fatal.

The 187th time

Green approached within three meters for the first time in the guise of the [Insect Honored One], which was also Green’s attack range.

Whoosh!

The pitch-black “Miss Lyle,” with nails covering it like a folding knife, sprang directly from the arm… tightly gripped in Green’s hand, while dozens of Tentacles wrapped around the handle, stabilizing it.

The Moon Lady, Agatha, within also channeled a kind of “knife intent” into Green’s brain.

Die!

As Green wielded the Black Blade with all his might, one could even glimpse some bug-attached tissues under his armpits offering support on a strength level.

Clang!

As the hit connected, the floor collapsed… Green and the Beheading King fell down three entire floors together.

This chop had not yet ended.

Click click click click!

Miss Lyle’s Shape Shifting Abilities transformed the blade into a serrated structure made of dense nails, performing a high-frequency cutting… but the effect was not as expected.

Parry.

The toothed blade was sturdily blocked by the Flowing Light Orthodox Sect in the hands of the Beheading King, and no amount of cutting could do any good.

“I acknowledge your uniqueness… perhaps when you become King you might threaten me, but it’s a pity that it all ends here.”

The Beheading King gave Green a very high evaluation, changing the way he held his sword.

‘Return’

The parrying rebound,

When released by the Beheading King, this move would deal 300% direct damage, and there was no way to dodge it, nor was there any interval in between…

At this moment.

Green felt an immediate threat of a blade at his neck, with his chance to even commit suicide reduced to [0%].

Certain death without a doubt.

In the face of this situation, Green revealed a very odd expression, as if holding back a laugh.

“You…”

The Beheading King intended to follow through with a chop to finish off the madman before him instantly.

But at the same moment, he smelled a strange scent, and the surface of the lake of artistic conception seemed to be stained by something.

Blood, a drop of blood fell on the surface of the lake, and the bright red hue spread out continuously.

Drip-drop drip-drop… The ceiling started oozing red blood continuously, even projecting a terrifying human face.

“You!”

The Beheading King’s state of mind was completely disturbed, and this sudden change bought Green a second to react and quickly commit suicide in midair.

Frustrated by the escape of his target once again, the Beheading King’s mood became even more agitated, and larger ripples appeared on the surface of the lake.

He could only target the blood above his head that was condensing.

As the blood fully emerged and condensed into an individual in an instant.

‘Nine’

In his irritation, the Beheading King directly launched a nine-fold Chop strike, targeting different vital areas.

Although the nine-fold Chop strike was more lethal, each chop did not carry as much power as a Flash.

“I can barely see clearly now! Count, leave the minute control of the body to me; you just focus on approaching the enemy and regenerating with Fresh Blood.”

“Alright!”

As the blade light passed, chunks of red flesh scattered everywhere.

However, Han Dong managed to successfully protect his head from being struck even once.

In the eyes of the Beheading King, such injuries were enough to cause a lower-leveled individual to die completely, each slice imbued with rules that shattered the Soul.

But…

The scent of blood dispersing in the air grew even more intense.

A large amount of blood gushed from the severed neck, sketching out in mid-air the outline of an infant, directly forming a newborn baby’s body.

And in the hands of the infant was a bright red toy sword.

The sword, along with the infant, grew… turning into a Demon-slaying Holy Sword bathed in supreme Fresh Blood.

The whole process was seamless, without the slightest gap.

The ‘Holy Sword’ replaced the Beheading King’s ‘Flowing Light Orthodox Sect,’ penetrating into the body from the neck.

With an absolute effect of exorcism, it severed all the Sinuous Threads within the Beheading King’s Body.
