Chapter 10: I’m too weak to save you
"So, where is this Devourer at the moment?"
"Ah, that bastard! He’s like a cockroach. But I managed to locate him near the tombs. The inner disciples are currently searching the ruins."
"This Devourer... can he copy abilities?"
Shen nodded. "This guy devours essences, he’s a plague that needs to be eradicated! We don’t have time to waste, big brother, I’m sure he hasn’t left this realm yet."
’Just like me! Who is this devourer, then?’
"You’re right, Shen. Go, I’ll be right there."
Shen stood up with a smile. "Big brother, we must absolutely kill this Devourer, otherwise we might really be forced into isolation, hehe." he said, leaving with a carefree air.
The room fell silent after his departure. Bai She looked at his palm, still unable to feel the mana he once used. But his interaction with Shen had made him think of something.
He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath. Calming his mind, he felt his body float. His soul’s energy began to surge, but suddenly, this pure energy became increasingly violent, escaping his control. On his forehead, an omega symbol slowly appeared, accompanied by green scales under his eyes. His long silver hair took on a black-olive hue. When he abruptly opened his eyes, his irises were reptilian, olive, with red sclerae. His appearance was close to Linfer’s, except his wings were absent.
He opened his palm, revealing a reddish-green, poisonous, unhealthy energy, interspersed with destructive flashes.
"I’m here to hunt the devourer? Actually, I’m hunting myself, haha."
