Chapter 338 (2/2)

Booming sounds rang in the air like rolling thunder, as powerful as war drums. Each hit was determined to kill whatever it came into contact with. If an ordinary person encountered this, he would be blasted into pieces.

This underground palace beneath the desert was filled with roaring sound, which made all other sounds hardly heard.

The smashed slab stones were broken into smaller pieces. The stone chips and dust were filling up space around like haze.

Shao Xuan felt like he was back at the mountain forest full of mysteries and dangers, battling with a fierce beast. When confronting a fierce beast, just a second of distraction was enough to let the beast gain the upper hand and defeat him.

And right now, it was the same. Even worse, the enemy right now was a tribe traitor.

He would never back down! The stronger the enemy’s attack, the stronger he became! If his enemy was fierce, he got even fiercer! If his enemy fought hard, he would fight even harder!

Shao Xuan’s totem tattoos started to brighten like blazing fire, just like the blue flames he showed when he was at the fighting pit, which seemed to burn people around him.

Bang!

A heavy punch fell on Dao Yu.

Without stopping, Shao Xuan gave Dao Yu another quick punch on his chest.

Dao Yu flew, then fell heavily on the ground and continued to slide backwards across a distance before stopping.

When Shao Xuan was about to give him another punch, he noticed that the fine lines on Dao Yu’s body were cracks, blood flowed through them. Dao Yu was looking at Shao Xuan with his head tilted to one side. He spat blood out of his mouth while his body twitched uncontrollably.

The two punches from Shao Xuan were like signals pushing the first domino in the row, and then all other dominoes fell down one after another in a chain reaction. The invincible power Dao Yu had a few moments ago was fading quickly.

There was blood spattered on his face, his face was grim and filled with pain. He was incredibly frustrated and couldn’t believe that he was beaten.

He lost the fight?! If he was given two more days, no, just one more day, for him to regulate his strength and power and prepare, he would definitely be able to beat up this person, he must…

He couldn’t let Shao Xuan get away with the core seed. That belonged to him, only him! He was going to build his own desert city, to become a slave master, and finally one day, he would become the lord of the land. How could he die before accomplishing his dreams?!

No! How could he?!

There was no way he could lose to him! No!

Dao Yu widened his eyes and stared as Shao Xuan approached him. Dust and sand had stopped falling, yet his vision was getting increasingly blurred. His power was fading and declining rapidly. His mighty strength that unlocked his shackles had disappeared like it never existed.

Finally, in his blurred vision, the approaching figure seemed to turn into a flame with a pattern within. It was a two-horn pattern, a pattern he hadn’t thought about in a long, long time.

Shao Xuan looked at Dao Yu who had stopped breathing, puzzled. His two punches were not strong enough to kill Dao Yu, a person who could unlock his own shackles. It looked more like Dao Yu was severely hurt by his own mighty power.

Shao Xuan tried to feel Dao Yu’s wrist for a pulse, only to find his pulse had stopped. In contrast to his powerful appearance, his body was severely damaged on the inside.

Was this because of the core seed?

No, probably not.

Shao Xuan was still trying to figure out this matter when a sudden thud shook the entire palace. Huge rocks fell from above while sand streamed down through the cracks.

Boom!

Again.

It seemed like someone was striking the ground above.

Soil and sand cascaded down while huge rocks started to fall. The illuminating stones became even darker covered by dust.

Aargh! Who’s up there?!

There was no time to think. Shao Xuan had to rush back to where he came from. All the torches went out, the whole palace was covered in darkness.

Fortunately, he could still see the pathway.

After Shao Xuan ran out, the place where he fought Dao Yu a few moments ago started to collapse.
