Chapter 689
The instant the green divine orb hits the open air, the compact threads within continue their violent unraveling.
With the Demon nowhere to be seen, shadow stepping my way in the darkness, I don't waste any time and swallow the strange prize from the first floor.
The Vermillion Family Demon materializes in a black and purple mist, towering over me as he swings his blade.
All possible paths I can take using my foresight skill show the next few milliseconds ending in the fall of the human world...
I still attempt to block and twist out of the way, but the moment my Soul Sword clashes with his, I feel myself being overpowered by an astounding degree. A dangerous pulse comes from my chest.
Instead of the green orb unraveling in the open air, it's been swallowed, now sitting at the center of my chest, unraveling inside me.
An absurd amount of pressure squeezes my core, like I'm having a heart attack; but at the same time, sharp energy explodes throughout my arms, legs, and even shoots into my brain.
It's both the most pleasurable and most painful feeling I've ever experienced.
It feels like the times I tried to absorb green threads in the past, eating the divine fruits, and absorbing the green serpent's aura—but as if I'm doing thousands at once.
