Chapter 1024 - I’ve misjudged you, you cowards! (1/2)

Chapter 1024: I’ve misjudged you, you cowards!Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu

After seeing the high-quality puppet squat down and hold its head, Song Shuhang was disheartened. Right after making its appearance, the puppet displayed such a cowardly move… Could it even be trusted?

Even if it had the strength of the Eighth Stage, would it be able to display it with such a cowardly att.i.tude?

At this time, Song Shuhang had started to doubt whether the last method his ‘secret appraisal technique’ had mentioned was truly related to this high-quality puppet.

However, there was no time to think. Another guided missile had just detonated.

“Boom~” The power of the explosion shrouded Song Shuhang’s group of five.

Song Shuhang felt his skin ache slightly, and the deep wound on his back, the one the secret appraisal technique had left behind, almost made him pa.s.s out.

While facing the incoming explosion, that high-quality puppet that Song Shuhang had great expectations of maintained its previous posture, not moving in the slightest…

Song Shuhang was in despair.

There was no hope.

This situation was truly hopeless.

From the looks of it, he could only rely on that 20% probability of survival that the ‘life talisman’ offered. Whether he would die or live was now G.o.d’s will.

“Boom, boom, boom~”

When that missile detonated, the ten or so guided missiles right behind it also exploded.

“I’m dead, I’m dead~” The old man copied the posture of the ‘high-quality puppet’ and squatted down, putting his hands on his head.

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman had a firm expression on his face, and he held all sorts of talismans in his hands. He, too, owed a magical treasure similar to the life talisman which could allow him to come back to life. However, similarly to Song Shuhang’s case, whether this method would work was up to G.o.d’s will. Before dying, he had to give his all and fight!

As before, Daoist Priest Horizon kept his hands behind his back. There was a gentle expression in his eyes, just as though he didn’t care whether he would live or die. If he could maintain this state of mind, there was hope for him to advance to the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm in the future.

Eternity, the young Fifth Stage Spiritual Emperor, silently fixed his clothes. Then, he tightly grasped his two swords. He didn’t have any resurrection method, but even if he were to die, he would die standing.

❄️❄️❄️

The guided missiles detonated with all their might, and the high-quality puppet maintained its cowardly posture as it was engulfed in flames.

Right behind, Song Shuhang poured all his strength into the third style of the ❮Inverted Scale Saber Technique❯, the ❮Inverted Scale Style❯. He then condensed his ‘Saber Intent Armor’ anew, further strengthening the saber style and getting ready for the final struggle.

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman took out all his talismans—defensive ones, supplementary ones, offensive ones, and those with special effects—and activated them.

Daoist Priest Horizon controlled his flying sword and used all the strength he had left to slash out.

Eternity wielded his two swords, only attacking and not defending.

The nameless old man called out pitifully, “Aaaaaah~”

He was in utter despair since he had no defensive methods left. Soon after, the guided missiles and the following tank sh.e.l.ls blew up his body to pieces.

The old man was literally blown up to pieces, and his body was then reduced to ashes under the high temperature of the explosions the missiles had generated. It was reduced to ashes only because the strength of his body was at the peak of the Third Stage. Otherwise, he would have evaporated directly.

This time, no one was able to save him.

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman, Eternity, Song Shuhang, and Daoist Priest Horizon were all struggling to survive, and death was closing in on them…

Aside from the lightning of tribulation, the guided missiles also possessed the power of the fire, metal, and wind of tribulation, as well as the power to generate Inner Demons.

The bodies of those guided missiles were made of fire and metal tribulation. The lightning of tribulation had increased their firepower while the wind of tribulation their speed. As for the tribulation of the Inner Demon, it had increased the intimidating power of the explosions.

This wave of modern heavenly tribulation had fused all the different types of heavenly tribulation into a single body. This was why it had such frightening power.

As if that wasn’t enough, from the second wave, the heavenly tribulation had decided to use AOE attacks. All the members of Song Shuhang’s group of five were being targeted, without any distinction.

❄️❄️❄️

The old man was reduced to ashes in a single breath.

The next to fall was Song Shuhang. His ❮Inverted Scale Style❯ was unable to resist the power of the explosion. It crumbled, and the Saber Intent Armor followed immediately after. The counterattack of the Saber Intent Armor was likewise useless, because the armor was destroyed before it could even launch it.

After losing the protection of the ❮Inverted Scale Style❯ and the Saber Intent Armor, Song Shuhang’s body was engulfed in the explosions, getting bruised and lacerated.

Then, he gazed at that high-quality puppet, which was still squatting down and holding its head.

He hadn’t expected that this puppet would turn out to be such an embarra.s.sment. Had he known earlier, he would have stuffed the pseudo-eternal furnace core into his silver dragon puppet. With a core of the Eighth Stage, the silver dragon puppet could have perhaps resisted a little.

Today, his luck had been truly s.h.i.+et! Song Shuhang gritted his teeth and tried to mobilize his saber intent to condense the Saber Intent Armor once more.

At this time, just as though it had sensed Song Shuhang’s thoughts, the high-quality puppet, who had been squatting down up until now, suddenly s.h.i.+vered.

In the next moment, it turned its head around and quietly gazed at Song Shuhang.

At this time, Song Shuhang was using the ‘Saber Intent Armor’ and the ❮Scholarly Indestructible Body of the Buddha❯ to resist the explosions, but his skin and flesh still ruptured. The hand he was using to hold the saber was charred black, and his hair and eyebrows had been reduced to ashes, revealing a dazzling bald head.
