"Crunch!"
A sickening crunch rang out as its maws literally
chomped down in Karl's neck.
[+999 damage points]
Karl felt as though his bones on his neck and spine had been grinded to pieces.
"Pfft!"
Blood spurted out the side of his neck as the Shadow Panther's fangs dug through both sides of his neck.
Karl's eyes opened wide as he turned ferocious. In that instance, the sound of his heart pounded as though it was about to leap out of his chest.
"Thump!" "Thump!!" "Thump!!!"
Even the air shook as the sound waves escaped the confinement of his body and could be heard outside.
Terrifying web of veins the size of an infant's finger popped out from his chest and shoulder, all the way to his neck and both side of his neck.
'God Veins!'
He actually managed to activated his cells at this moment!
Others managed to awaken at the moment of life and death, but he actually awakened when his death was set in stone!

[Remark: You are not immortal yet...]
Karl was stunned. Others activated their cells the moment their bodies detect their in danger, his cells only activated when he was about to die!
That wasn't the worst of it either, when other students activate their cells, their strength increases according to their talents.
5-star talents strength would increase by 10 times.
4-star talented individuals strength would increase by 8 times.
3-star talented individuals strength would increase by 6 times.
2-star talented individual strength would increase by 4 times.
1-star talented individuals strength would increase by only two times.
Karl didn't know if he should be happy or sad that he was a 2-star talent. Compared to those 1-star talents, he was better but regarding those with 3-stars and above talents, there was no way he could match up to their strength, regardless of how hard he works.
The distance between them will only keep on increasing time and time again until his strength becomes negligible in front of those at the same realm as him.
At this moment, enlarged veins popped out on both his forearms, spreading all the way to his wrists and the back of his palm.
The veins suddenly pulsed as his heart roared like a machine.
"Thump!" "Thump!!" "Thump!!!"
Blood pumped into every part of his body like a flood as an overwhelming amount of strength filled him to the bones.
Karl immediately clenched his fists.
"Shiiin!"
The gauntlets on his wrists released two sharp mechanical sounds as three sharp blades extended out from each his forearm.
"Die!!!"
With an angry roar, his blood circulated even more intensely and his veins expanded through his skin. Without hesitation, he punched both sides of the Shadow Panther's neck with his two arms.
"Chi!" "Chi!" "Ppft!"
The blades embedded on his fists stabbed right through both sides of the Shadow Panther's neck, puncturing and severing the spinal cord from its skull as the tips extended out from the both sides of its neck.
"ROAR!!!"
A furious roar of anger, regret and fear rang out through the entire forests as the Mutated beast's blood splashed through the air, staining the ground and soaking Karl's clothes with blood.
The Shadow panther's body shook violently in reflex, tossing Karl's body aside like a ragdoll.
"Ugh!"
Karl grunted in pain as his back slammed against a large tree, dooming against its bark as he fell to the ground.
Blood pool began gathering beneath him as blood spilled out from his punctured and broken neck.
'Why is death so painful?!'
Karl's body spasmed in pain. The pain of his neck shattering halfway was simply too painful. The fact that he had been able to react quickly, piercing the skull of the Shadow Panther was a miracle in its self.
'I guess this will count as my third death.
This was his only thought as life slowly slipped from his body. The pain turned into a cold chill and Karl could feel the magnetic draw of darkness pulling him in like that of a dark shadowy abyssal hole.
Just when he thought the abyss was endless, a line of text appeared in the darkness.
[You have been bitten to death by a Shadow Panther.]
[1.25 points added to all stats!]
[You will fully regenerate in ten minutes.]
In that moment, a blinding light engulfed him and involuntarily, Karl woke up with a start.
"Haaah!"
A heavy gasp tore through his throat as he inhaled a deep breath of air.
He finally woke up! Karl hurriedly felt the sides of his neck but there was not a single scratch on him. Karl couldn't help but be stunned.
It was actually true, he really couldn't die.
At this moment, he angrily turned his gaze at the dead Shadow Panther half a meter before him.
Scurrying to his feet, he immediately went forwards and smashed his fists against the body of the beast like a punching bag.
"Bang!"
"Hmph! You truly almost scared me to death!"
"Bang!"
"Weren't you all high and mighty just now?!"
"Bang!"
"Aren't you dead now? What else can you do now? Even the heavens cannot help you at this moments."
"Bang!"
Karl huffed coldly, glaring daggers at the smashed skull of the Shadow Panther.
He suddenly remembered something.
All Mutated beasts have something called God-blood stored inside of them.
God-blood are mysterious substances that contains various elements such as abilities, God-art and even memories of God-inheritances.
Karl's eyes lit up and he extended his forearm blade, slicing through the skull of the Shadow Panther.
It was a very gruesome sight and the smell was incredibly horrible. However, it was Karl's first time, he would only get better over time.
The skull was thick but luckily Karl had smashed them to pieces due to anger, allowing him to sieve through the brain of the black panther.
In the next moment, Karl's eyes widened in shock and he gently took out a dark colored organic material embedded in the brain of the Panther.
