[801-1000] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 956 Collapse

As the smoke dispersed, Ice Death's released energy lingered in the air. He turned his gaze, his eyes brimming with murderous intent, down at his hand, which clutched a piece of frozen flesh. Slowly, he parted his lips, his voice frigid with certainty. "As I thought... You're going to make a move."

"Hehe," Hoei chuckled ruefully, his left hand pressed against the deep wound in his stomach, blood seeping from it relentlessly.

The recent clash had taken its toll on him. He hadn't anticipated Ice Death's rapid response and subsequent attack.

Swoosh!! Swoosh!!

Thousand Earth, Poisonous Vine, and Spatial Whisperer encircled him, each emanating an aura on the brink of eruption.

"You're going to die. You should've realized this was inevitable," Ice Death declared icily.

"What can I do? I can't escape this place," Hoei remarked with a smile, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

He was confined to the Selnes Country due to the curse, unable to venture far. But breaking free was necessary if he wanted to ensure his family's safety amidst the chaos of war.

"It doesn't matter. I've achieved my objective," Hoei declared, raising his other hand to reveal the cores of the Master Clans.

"You?!" Ice Death's eyes widened in disbelief, moving to intercept Hoei's hand, but he was too late.

"Heh, the Selnes Country won't fall without a fight!" Hoei exclaimed, channeling his energy to crush the cores within his palm, closing his fists tightly.

"I may not live to see tomorrow, but my mission is complete. Erkigal, I entrust everything to you. Please safeguard the Methal Clan," Hoei silently conveyed as he braced himself to face Ice Death and the others.

Reacting swiftly, Poisonous Vine and Spatial Whisperer launched simultaneous attacks on Hoei.

Boom!!

...

In the Selnes Country...

Souta raised both of his swords, summoning a massive net of lightning in the sky.

[Archetype: Great Blood of the End]!

With a powerful swing, he unleashed an immense surge of energy, directing it toward Paente's form.

[First Form: Lifeless Tribulation of the Blood Lightning]!!

Paente's eyes widened in shock at the onslaught.

The relentless torrent of blood lightning descended, tearing through every inch of his body. The earth quaked as thunder boomed overhead.

"It's over! You haven't even fully recovered from Red Mist's attack, so don't think you can withstand this!" Souta's voice thundered as he poured more energy into his assault.

"DIE!!"

The burst of lightning intensified, radiating outwards in all directions.

On the other side of the battlefield...

Kessa unleashed a mighty ray at the tree's main body, its impact sending shockwaves rippling across the land.

The ferocious attack laid waste to everything within a five-kilometer radius. Unconcerned with collateral damage, Kessa focused solely on annihilating the colossal tree.

ROAR!!

Her scales exuded a corrosive gas, amplifying the destructive force of her assault. The shockwaves intensified, and the ray expanded, engulfing the giant tree in its searing path.
