The sovereign moved...
Quickly, but not too quickly...
At least in Wen Yu's eyes, the sovereign's speed could at most be on par with his own.
Describing the sovereign's speed as a whirlwind or a flash of light was insufficient, yet this speed made Wen Yu mumble for a long time.
"It can't be..."
Indeed, it couldn't...
The sovereign had once suppressed Wen Yu with his aura, demonstrating strength far beyond what he exhibited now... However, considering the age of this old monster, Wen Yu felt relieved.
The sovereign undoubtedly possessed limit-breaking ability, and as long as he had this ability, combined with such a long lifespan, even something as trashy as the heavenly origin breathing technique would suffice to elevate the sovereign's foundational physical qualities to a terrifying height.
Many times, it is not about who is stronger, but who can live longer...
Just like the current sovereign compared to the demon lord.
From the current strength of the sovereign, it was clear that the "sniping tactic" set by the demon lord against him had no issues.
Honestly, if Wen Yu faced the current sovereign in a direct battle, he would definitely suppress the sovereign without a doubt!
One could only say it was a matter of time and fate.
...
Although the sovereign's speed did not seem fast to Wen Yu, to Yu, it was indeed overwhelming.
The sovereign strode forward, and Yu fired three shots, evading, yet he was quickly caught up by the sovereign.
As the sovereign swung his fist, coming down hard towards Yu, Wen Yu was taken aback.
It seemed that the sovereign did not have ranged attack capabilities...
Yu's instant movement was a hassle, but even when encountering this trouble, the sovereign still did not launch a long-range attack; instead, he painstakingly aimed to close the distance with Yu.
It looked...
Really heavy-handed.
After the sovereign swung his fist, this heavy-handed description stuck with him.
It was just a series of clumsy punches...
With four arms, the sovereign indeed had a significant advantage in battle. Yu quickly dodged the sovereign's attacks but still got grazed by the sovereign's upper right limb.
Just one graze, and Yu's triple defensive skills were instantly torn apart. The violent aftermath of power surged into Yu's body, causing him to stagger and then fly backward, spewing blood.
The lethality was immense...
Really immense!
A hit meant breaking through defenses, and breaking through defenses meant heavy injury!
At least three different passive skills enhancing lethality were demonstrated in the sovereign's punch.
The combination of these three resulted in a terrifying effect—just grazing meant injury, and injury meant death!
Sharing sensory experiences with Yu, Wen Yu finally recognized the terrifying aspect of the sovereign at that moment.
The violent power at the wound poured in like a tsunami. Yu, an eleventh level strongman, already had little origin power within him. Under the interference of this external energy, Yu's origin power was rapidly consumed.
In just two seconds, Yu's origin power had been completely depleted!
This was a speed that could be deemed terrifying.
Even if Yu's foundation was insufficient, he was still an eleventh level strongman who had been promoted through normal channels, yet his origin power was exhausted in two seconds—what did this signify?
It meant Yu was undoubtedly doomed!
The gap between the eleventh level and the tenth level lay in origin power; without origin power, and without Wen Yu's dark divine light... what could he do?
The moment his origin power was exhausted, the external force that had suppressed him went berserk, violently compressing every single cell within Yu's body, reducing them to atomic particles in a short span of time.
Compressing, shattering, and then leaving nothing but bones!
Yu was like a pile of coal ash, slowly scattering in the wind, disappearing without a trace...
...
Yu had revival means.
Over a hundred revival items, but none could prevent inevitable death.
The sovereign stood beside Yu, and as soon as Yu revived, he reached out and touched Yu, causing Yu to turn to ashes in the air.
