"BOOM—!"
Amidst the thunderous boom, a flash of berserk lightning struck the ground heavily, expanding in all directions from the center of the dark silhouette.
Wherever the berserk lightning passed, the ground shattered like fragile tofu, causing chunks of debris to explode and scatter in all directions, resembling the aftermath of artillery fire.
Simultaneously, the terrifying shockwave expanded as well.
Within it, Fang Li's figure constantly retreated, resembling a small boat struggling for survival in a stormy ocean, desperately evading the blast wave.
While evading, Fang Li's ice-blue Mystic Eyes remained fixed on the incoming berserk lightning and in the next moment, lightning after lightning traveled through the blast wave and attacked Fang Li one after another.
Relying on his ability to perceive the Death Line of lightning through his Mystic Eyes, Fang Li managed to barely discern the trajectory of each lightning attack. Like a spider, he leaped back and forth, evading the direct strikes of the lightning bolts.
Unfortunately, even with Fang Li's Mystic Eyes of Death Perception capturing the Death Line and discerning the lightning's attack trajectory, he still couldn't dodge all the electric shocks.
Faced with the unavoidable electric shocks, Fang Li exerted all his strength, swinging his Moonlight Dagger with incredible speed to intercept the incoming lightning bolts.
In his desperate state, Fang Li's footwork became increasingly skilled, and his attacks began to incorporate elements of the Nanaya Assassination Technique, using the Flashing Scabbard technique. With each swing, his speed increased to the limit, surpassing conventional trajectories, and cutting through the incoming electric shocks.
"Bang bang bang bang—!"
Instantly, lightning after lightning was severed by Fang Li, and their Death Lines were cut off, leading to their demise. Like blooming fireworks, they exploded, filling the air with electric arcs.
Finally, Fang Li successfully evaded all the lightning attacks, avoiding the onslaught of the blast wave. However, at this moment, at the center of the blast wave and lightning, a colossal dark figure suddenly leaped forward.
Fang Li felt a momentary blur, and the Vajra Fallen Species, with a pitch-black body, appeared before him, raising a jet-black claw high in the air.
"Bang—!"
The pitch-black claw heavily struck down, accompanied by an immensely powerful electric shock, once again shattering the ground.
This time, although Fang Li managed to avoid a direct hit from the claw, he couldn't escape the impact caused by the ensuing explosion. He was swept up and sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing into the ground.
Amidst the resounding bangs, Fang Li, lying on his back, rolled on the ground like a rolling gourd, his body experiencing pain from head to toe, and he was unable to suppress a groan that escaped his throat.
"Rooooooaaaaar… Rooooooaaaaar…!"
At this moment, Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father) seized the opportunity, pursuing Fang Li relentlessly. As if intending to bring Fang Li to his doom, he leaped high once again, diving fiercely toward Fang Li's direction as he rolled on the ground.
This pursuit was absolutely life-threatening.
"Damn it all to hell!" Fang Li couldn't help but curse inwardly, ignoring the intense pain coursing through his body. He extended his hand and grabbed onto the ground. His nails dug deep into the soil and rocks, the friction causing them to quickly break and fresh blood oozed out from them.
However, relying on this method, in the final moment, Fang Li successfully halted his rolling figure, swiftly turning over and standing up, flipping to the side.
The colossal dark figure arrived almost at the same time, the claw descending toward the ground.
"BOOM—!"
Instantly, the ground trembled effortlessly, leaving behind cracks.
If that claw had truly landed on Fang Li's body, even with Fang Li's nearly 20 points of Endurance, his body would have been instantly crushed into minced meat.
Having understood this, a fierce glint flashed in Fang Li's eyes. He swiftly leaped up and advanced instead of retreating, charging toward Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father).
His ice-blue Mystic Eyes locked onto the pitch-black Aragami, and the Death Lines converged within Fang Li's field of vision.
However, the core Death Line, representing Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father)'s life, was located deep within the multitude of Death Lines on its head.
Considering Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father)'s displayed agility, if Fang Li leaped onto its head, it would undoubtedly be dodged or even counterattacked before the attack could land.
"In that case, I'll start by disabling that claw of yours, this thing needs to stop swinging around!"
With a swift movement, Fang Li suddenly appeared in front of the claw that had just landed on the ground. His Moonlight Dagger immediately struck down at the massive claw.
However, Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father) remained unfazed and a slightly evil smile curled on its face.
"Splurt—!"
Just as Fang Li was about to hit Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father)'s front claw, a sound came from behind Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father).
Underneath that sound, a pair of weapons seems to pierce through Dyaus Pita's (Heavenly Father)'s back.
They were a pair of pitch-black wings composed of blade-like fragments.
These pitch-black wings emerged from Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father)'s body, unfolding behind it. Shortly afterward, one of the wings flashed, breaking through space with a chilling blade light, descending with incredible speed.
The speed surpassed any attack Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father) had displayed thus far.
Even with Fang Li's maximized stats, combined with the boosts from Skills and Equipment, he couldn't match that strike in terms of speed.
Therefore, the deadly slash heavily landed.
"Puchi—!"
Crimson blood erupted like splashing water, staining the air. Fang Li's abdomen was viciously sliced open, and his body was sent flying like a bouncing ball, sliding across the ground for a considerable distance before finally coming to a stop.
"Cough…!"
Lying on the ground, Fang Li couldn't help but cough out a mouthful of blood.
As for his body, it was already dyed completely red by the blood, reaching a pitiful state.
Clutching his abdomen, Fang Li felt the blood flowing out from his entire body, gritting his teeth in pain.
"Even when I tried to dodge at the last moment, I still couldn't completely evade it?"
The speed of that strike surpassed Fang Li's imagination. Even if Fang Li reacted in a timely manner, he was still struck. If Fang Li hadn't dodged at the last moment, he might have been cleaved in two.
"Is this the difference between Ranks?"
Fang Li could only clutch his abdomen, raising his head and looking ahead.
There, the Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father) extended its wing-like blades, looking at Fang Li lying in a pool of blood, its mouth curling into another mocking grin.
That appearance was akin to mocking a pitiful loser.
Immediately, the Dyaus Pita (Heavenly Father) slowly walked in Fang Li's direction.
