Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Preparing for Battle

"I?" You thought for a moment, then shook your head and smiled bitterly, "Just a day ago, I still had Innate Divine Strength, but now it’s gone. Right now, I’m no different from a novice mercenary. And shamefully, I only know the most basic fighting techniques, all gained from brawling over the past decade."

This time, you did not lie. Li Zichen, that guy, is quite twisted. He created such a bizarre world, everything here is inconsistent with what you know.

Of course, you realize this was done deliberately by Li Zichen.

Moreover, Li Zichen had already looked for you at Yema Village before, but Lei Xiu took a hit for you.

That’s exactly why Li Zichen couldn’t find you in a short time.

It could be said that your survival is all due to coincidences.

And you’re well aware of the current situation; you must find a way to become stronger soon and not remain in a passive position constantly.

"Don’t be modest. From the depths of your soul, I feel a strong power. If you can use it wisely, your future will be limitless. Plus, despite your good concealment, I can see from your eyes something that a strong person must possess."

Dak’s voice was still cold: "Don’t think that Kaidi and I would help you for no reason. We’re doing this in hopes that when you flourish one day, you won’t forget us."

Dak is straightforward, but you appreciate this trait of his.

In fact, perhaps even Li Zichen, the creator of this world, doesn’t know that no matter how he changes the world, the Seal of Truesky still exists.

Not to mention, you possess a strong recovery ability, which is the power of the Gate of Life.

And the domineering pressure you used when your memory was restored is the power of the Shocking Sect.

However, Li Zichen is very familiar with these two powers, after all, he’s also from Chu Sect. Thus, you know to defeat Li Zichen, you must find a new kind of power unfamiliar to him, and you’ve naturally taken an interest in Asuna’s close combat magic.

If combined with the power of Scenic Sect, then you could maximize the potential of close combat magic, making Godslaying not an impossibility!

This is also why you joined Kaidi and Dak’s team.

The journey was silent.

The bushes along the path ahead grew taller; Dak, shorter than you, and the bushes already reached his shoulders.

"Rustle."

A strange noise suddenly came from not far ahead.

"Prepare for battle!"

Kaidi immediately drew his sword horizontally, the hollow skeleton eyes flickering with a blue ghostly light.

Moments later, Dak finished chanting an incantation. His right hand gently raised, a black mist rolling up and down with his hand. At a certain height, his hand suddenly clenched, and the black mist began to spray around, quickly you noticed the life of surrounding plants rapidly withering, soon turning to ash scattered in the jungle.

Dak quickly cleared out a space for you, at that moment, a figure suddenly darted out from the bushes.

"Clang!"

Metal clashed instantly, Kaidi and the newcomer both stepped back several paces. When the newcomer steadied himself, you saw it was a disheveled human, wearing a damaged chainmail, tightly holding a wide-blade sword.

"He’s one of us!"

Dak instantly noticed the badge worn on the man’s chest.

The man, seeing Kaidi withdraw his hand, hastily shouted, "Run! Hunter Kasola has appeared!"

"Hiss!"

As soon as the man’s words fell, a lizard monster over four meters tall appeared in front of the four of them.

This lizard monster had four eyes, its brown-yellow skin was dry and cracked, and its mouth full of sharp teeth was stained with fresh red blood; its tongue slightly sticking out, making an uncomfortable sound.

After several flips through the air, the man landed beside Dak and you, raising his wide-blade sword in terror, he said, "Two of our teams have already been wiped out; I am the only one left in our group."

When Dak saw Kasola, his eyebrows knitted tightly together, and he solemnly said to Kaidi and you, "Hunter Kasola is the Guardian of the Asuna Temple Gate. His appearance here means that the Temple Gate is not far from us. Don’t retreat; I have a way to repel him."

"Giggles."

To your and the man’s horror, Kasola slowly lifted his previously hanging left hand, and as his left hand appeared, everyone also saw a human woman’s corpse held in it.

Kasola, confident in his own strength, didn’t take Dak and the others seriously. Before them, he tore open the woman’s clothes, revealing a white and enticing body.

"Mei’er!"

The man screamed in agony and rushed towards Kasola with his sword. However, Kasola half-turned his body, and his tail, like a venomous snake, instantly coiled around the man.

"Clang!"

The man chopped at Kasola’s tail with his wide-blade sword, but only a crisp sound was heard; it was then that he realized Kasola’s skin was even harder than steel!

Kasola let out a long howl; he had torn off all the unnecessary items from the woman’s body and then opened his bloody jaws—"Crack!"

He first bit off the woman’s head and started eating it with relish.

"Beast, I will kill you!"

Seeing his beloved suffer such a fate, the man almost went mad, frantically hacking at Kasola’s tail, but to no avail.

"Damn it!" You were furious, gripping the short sword tighter.

"Blood Burst!" Dak shouted solemnly, and just as Kasola was about to bite into the woman’s chest, her corpse suddenly exploded into a cloud of blood mist! Kasola was also blasted backward several steps before falling to the ground.

"Roar!"

Kasola angrily got up; just as he rose, Dak had finished another incantation.

"Blood Needle Rain!"

The blood mist instantly condensed into fine blood needles. As Kasola got up, countless needles, like a storm, pierced towards him. Kasola could not avoid them and had to stretch out his arms to protect his eyes. Unlike ordinary weapons, the blood needles directly penetrated Kasola’s skin, harder than steel.

"Blood Poison!" At this moment, Dak’s face turned exceedingly pale. He planted the Skeleton Wand on the ground, his hands swiftly waving, and the remaining blood mist immediately turned dark. As the blood needles penetrated Kasola’s body, they enveloped him.

"That one, let’s join forces!"

Kaidi, who had been ready to strike, raised his longsword, which now glowed with a dark red light; the man had also freed himself from Kasola’s tail and with a shout of rage, a faint yellow light shone all over his body.

"Let’s attack his navel together, that’s his second weak point!"
