Chapter 693 - 441: Annihilating the White King (2)

At the same time.

Lines traced themselves through the void.

Before her, they formed a massive white Shield of Light.

She was trying to block the attack.

---BOOM!!!

The next instant.

The moment the Shield of Light met the fist.

The massive shield was torn apart as easily as thin paper.

The fist held nothing back, its terrifying power and Crimson Flame Yang Fire unleashing themselves upon Altdina.

CRACK!

The Battle Armor she wore shattered completely, exploding outward.

True Divine Blood gushed out like a waterfall.

As if it cost nothing.

Altdina let out a blood-curdling scream as the Light Wings on her back shattered inch by inch.

Her entire body exploded into a cloud of blood mist in mid-air.

Hu Qi let out a wild laugh.

His fangs glinted menacingly.

His hand clamped down on one of Altdina’s wings, and with a great exertion of his arm...

RRIP!

To the sickening crunch of breaking bone, he brutally tore off half of Altdina’s body!

Sacred golden blood rained down like a storm.

"Aargh! Get away from me!"

Altdina wailed.

Her body exploded once more.

Her form shrank to a fraction of its former size.

She even became somewhat translucent!

Golden blood streaming from her body, Altdina shot a terrified glance at Hu Qi.

Without a moment’s hesitation, she beat her wings and transformed into a streak of Flowing Light, fleeing into the distance.

"Trying to run?!"

Hu Qi’s Adam’s apple bobbed.

Greed and murderous intent practically spilled from his eyes.

However, Altdina’s strength had indeed exceeded his expectations; she was nearly at the absolute limit of the Dao Seed Level.

This made Hu Qi secretly glad he had arrived when he did. Otherwise, given a little more time, she very likely would have broken through to the Dao Seed Level.

In terms of Cultivation, Hu Qi was far inferior to Altdina.

He had only gained the upper hand by going all out from the very beginning, using the power of the Infinite Dao to elevate his strength to the limit of the Dao Seed Level and relying on the Bloodline Power of the Taiyu Serpent to crush her.

’No matter what, Altdina will not escape death this time.’

These thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

His movements didn’t pause. His colossal form took a single step, crossing tens of thousands of feet as he moved to intercept her.

But the next second.

A curved, eerie blue tentacle extended from the void and coiled toward Hu Qi.

It had clearly been drawn by the commotion.

Hu Qi’s brows furrowed sharply, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"Get lost!"

He roared, his right fist suddenly igniting with Crimson Sun Flame Fire. The raging Yang Fire, carrying destructive power, blasted outward.

--BOOM!

Amidst a deafening explosion, the eerie blue tentacle shattered on impact, dissolving into a shower of light motes.

But the recoil also made Hu Qi stagger, forcing him back a step.

’This damned thing...’

He glanced at Altdina, who had almost vanished from sight.

He cursed under his breath.

But before the words were even out of his mouth, the void above rippled again. This time, three even thicker, eerie blue tentacles shot out, striking at him like vipers.

Seeing this, Hu Qi’s pupils contracted, and a muscle in his face twitched uncontrollably.

In a flash, he threw three consecutive punches, each one carrying the power to shatter stars.

The three tentacles exploded in succession, but the powerful backlash forced him back again and again.

’What the hell is this thing?’

Hu Qi looked at his arm and saw faint blue veins appearing on it.

They looked like living things.

Constantly spreading upward.

At the same time, a cold, numbing sensation began to set in.

Seeing this.

He clenched his fist, and the Crimson Sun Flame Fire on his arm flared, erupting outward.

The blue veins on his skin’s surface dissipated like smoke.

His arm returned to normal.

At this moment.

The void ahead rippled again.

But Hu Qi had no intention of getting tangled up with it any longer.

A layer of Twisted Light suddenly appeared around him.

He vanished from the spot.

The next second.

Six eerie blue tentacles shot out.

Finding nothing, they could only sweep the area once before retracting in frustration.

From a distance, concealed by the Twisted Light, Hu Qi watched this unfold.

His expression was strange.

’Where in the world do these phenomena in the Bottomless Realm come from? They’re far too bizarre.’

However, he knew this was not the time to ponder such things.

The most important thing was to kill Altdina first.

...

「Inside the Bottomless Realm.」

Altdina keenly sensed the rapidly approaching presence behind her, and her expression instantly turned dark as a thundercloud.

She had originally thought the sudden appearance of that phenomenon would stop him.

But it turned out she had been too optimistic.

He had shaken it off so quickly and was already in pursuit again.

Given her current, heavily injured state,

once Hu Qi caught her, death would be her only fate.

"Damn it! You’re forcing my hand!"

Altdina glanced back at the relentlessly pursuing Hu Qi, who was just about to catch her.

She gritted her teeth, and the light around her body suddenly intensified, her speed soaring once more.

The next second, her figure twisted sharply and dove straight into a rift.

In almost the exact same instant Altdina’s figure vanished, Hu Qi arrived at the location.

He stared at the rift before him.

It was an earthen-yellow rift, emanating an ominous aura.

Seeing this, a flicker of amusement crossed Hu Qi’s eyes.

’Interesting. Does she really think she can escape her fate just by hiding in here?’

Clearly, the rift connected to another world.

The aura emanating from the rift made Hu Qi feel a faint sense of strangeness and danger.

But no matter what, Hu Qi had no intention of letting his prey, White King Altina, slip through his fingers now that she was within his grasp.

But before entering this unknown world, he had to make some preparations.

At this thought, Hu Qi closed his eyes and tried to contact his Clone inside the Reincarnation Bookstore. Multitasking, he simultaneously raised a hand to lay a Restriction in the surrounding area.

This Restriction had one simple but crucial function: to act as a warning, preventing Altdina from sneaking away while his guard was down.
