"Pā!"
With a crisp sound of footsteps, Fang Li's figure suddenly jumped towards Nrvnqsr like a cannonball.
Fang Li would not let Nrvnqsr escape.
After all, hunting the Dead Apostles is one of Fang Li's Main Quests.
To accomplish this goal, Fang Li brought back Arcueid, who had been targeted by Nrvnqsr.
Now there was a high-ranking Dead Apostle standing in front of him. If Fang Li succeeded in killing this Dead Apostle at the level of Twenty-seven Ancestors, Fang Li's Evaluation would surely increase.
Therefore, Fang Li would never let Nrvnqsr escape.
However, as Fang Li rushed towards Nrvnqsr with astonishing speed, he suddenly realized something.
"Huh..."
Nrvnqsr's entire coat fluttered as he chuckled.
And at that moment, an anomaly occurred.
"Gū lū..."
It was a sound like thick liquid rolling on the ground.
Almost at the same time that this sound rang out, Arcueid's voice came from behind Fang Li.
"Uh-oh! Quick, dodge!"
Unfortunately, Arcueid's warning was a step too late.
Fang Li had already stopped.
However, it wasn't an action he had taken himself.
"Gū Lū- Gū Lū- Gū Lū-!"
On the ground, a layer of pitch-black, viscous black mud suddenly burst open like darkness breaking the night, forming a vortex that enveloped Fang Li as he rushed toward Nrvnqsr, pinning his feet in place.
"This is..."
Fang Li's eyes narrowed as he looked at this scene.
Those black mud formations were clearly the prototypes of the wild beasts released from within Nrvnqsr's body.
All the wild beasts Fang Li had killed had instantly turned into this black mud and had disappeared on the spot returned to pure factors, and assimilated back into Nrvnqsr's body, but this time, Nrvnqsr had not retrieved them.
"Remember, human, I don't control wild beasts, I control the factors of wild beasts. Therefore, even if I turn pure wild beast factors into mud like this, I can still control these mud formations and use them in battle."
Nrvnqsr smiled mercilessly as he spoke.
"I call this mud the Primordial Earth. I've refined more than two hundred kinds of wild beasts that you just killed into this earth. Its quality is such that even high-ranking Dead Apostles cannot break free. As for a mere human like you, forget about breaking free from this restraint."
In other words, Nrvnqsr had never intended to escape.
His earlier words had only been a trap.
"Although you're a human whose fighting skills can rival those of the Executors of the Burial Agency, how could I, Nrvnqsr-Chaos, possibly escape in the face of a mere human like you?"
Nrvnqsr's mechanically cold eyes stared directly at Fang Li.
"Didn't you say that if someone is going to confront you, they should at least bring a Demon Beast?"
"Well, I'll do as you wish!"
With these words, Nrvnqsr finally pulled his hand out of his coat pocket like a sharp claw and plunged it directly into his torn chest under the fluttering coat.
In the black void of Nrvnqsr's torn chest, an unprecedented wild beast appeared.
It was a winged lizard, enormous in size, like a barbaric elephant.
---
Their number was a full three.
"I used the remaining three hundred wild beast factors to create these three Demon Beasts to kill you. You should feel honored."
With Nrvnqsr's declaration confirming his victory, the three giant Demon Beasts raised their heads one by one and stared at Fang Li.
"-Aaaaaaaooooooooooo-"
The roar, like that of a great dragon, turned into a rolling sound wave that spread out in all directions.
Immediately, the three demon beasts simultaneously flapped their wings and let out a berserk, insane roar as they charged at Fang Li, who was pinned in place by the Primordial Earth.
An unbelievably ferocious aura emanated from the three demon beasts, suffocating everyone around them.
Faced with such a deadly threat, Fang Li appeared dumbfounded, standing still without moving an inch, and it looked as if he had accepted his fate.
"That idiot!"
Seeing this scene with her own eyes, Arcueid clicked her tongue and tensed her limbs, ready to charge forward.
Although extremely weakened, Arcueid had regained some of her strength after resting.
Even if she couldn't defeat the three demon beasts condensed from the three hundred wild beast factors in Nrvnqsr's body, she could at least buy some time for Fang Li to escape.
That was the only thing Arcueid could do.
Otherwise, with Fang Li dead, Arcueid would most likely meet her end as well.
Therefore, Arcueid's judgment was absolutely correct.
However, she underestimated Fang Li's ability.
In the next second, Fang Li's voice echoed in the surroundings.
"Very good..."
It was an extremely calm voice.
"Otherwise, it wouldn't be interesting..."
If Nrvnqsr's earlier declaration was one that confirmed his victory, then Fang Li's words were those of someone who never doubted his own success.
Even if the opponent was the tenth of the oldest and most powerful of the Twenty-Seven Dead Apostle Ancestors.
Even in such a desperate situation.
Thus, the ice-blue Mystic Eyes emitted an extraordinary light.
"-Aaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooooooooooooooo-"
The roar of the non-existent demon beasts continued to echo and their fierce aura remained as ferocious as ever.
As Fang Li watched the three demon beasts charging at him, each of them as big as an elephant and much bigger than himself, he saw it.
He saw...
---Death.
Although there were fewer Death Lines than on ordinary creatures, indicating their resilience, the crack-like Death Lines were clearly etched in Fang Li's vision.
"Buzz..."
The Ogre Lux named Bo Xie trembled slightly as Fang Li's body glowed with a star-like radiance.
Fang Li just gently lifted the Ogre Lux in his hand.
"Flashing Scabbard - Ichiri Yotsuji!"
Countless sword lights danced, forming an array that created four absolute killing sword formations that rained down like a storm.
The three demon beasts didn't even have time to react before the countless sword dances enveloped their bodies.
They were sliced through.
"Pū Chī—!"
The sound of physical bodies being torn apart resounded simultaneously in the surroundings, reaching the ears of everyone present.
The three Demon Beasts were all dismembered at the same time, slashed by innumerable blades and sword shadows, and fell to the ground like discarded pieces of meat.
"—!"
Nrvnqsr's eyes widened as he looked at this scene.
Arcueid's figure halted.
As if witnessing the most unbelievable scene in the world, both the True Ancestor Princess and the high-ranking Dead Apostle were equally shocked.
It was an expression that could not be seen even after centuries.
In such a situation, even Nrvnqsr mumbled in a low voice.
"How is this possible…"
