Ender's killing intent was thick as he fully unleashed his Domain, green light rapidly spreading outwards from him. At the same time, his Spiritual Force manipulated the Blood Edge Blade to clash with the opponent's Spirit Weapon.
The Blood Edge Blade was a Second-Order Spiritual Weapon, specially made by the Stellar Training Camp with consistently solid materials. While its amplitude secret patterns couldn't compare to a third-order Spirit Weapon, it became incomparably powerful after being imbued with a trace of Wood Origin Law!
Bang, bang, bang!
In the clash of Spirit Weapons, the Ape-man Spiritual Master's third-order Spirit Weapon was actually at a disadvantage, suppressed by the Second-Order Spiritual Weapon, Blood Edge Blade.
"How is this possible? His Spirit Weapon is only second-order, how can it suppress my third-order Spirit Weapon!"
The Ape-man Spiritual Master's expression was shocked, feeling his worldview shattered. First, the opponent's will could ignore his Spiritual Force impact, and now he was suppressing a third-order Spirit Weapon with a second-order one. All of this was beyond his comprehension!
"Die!" Ender roared, manipulating the Blood Edge Blade to repel the opponent's third-order Spirit Weapon, then striking him.
Pfft!
Although the Ape-man Spiritual Master had a third-order Force Armor protecting him, facing the Blood Edge Blade—which was made of solid materials, as sharp as a third-order weapon, and enhanced with a trace of Wood Origin Law—he was still wounded in the chest.
"How could this be?"
With his chest wounded, the Ape-man Spiritual Master's expression was bewildered. Facing such a strange and powerful enemy, he felt somewhat powerless.
At this moment, he recalled the faces of his brothers in his mind, those brothers who had held back powerful Universe Level cultivators to complete their mission, their lives unknown.
"You forced my hand!" The Ape-man Spiritual Master roared madly, "I'll kill you!"
He took out a blood-colored pill from his spatial ring and threw it directly into his mouth.
At this point, he no longer wanted to complete any mission. How could he complete the capture if he couldn't even defeat his opponent?
When he first received this mission, it was said that the opponent was a Stellar Rank eighth-stage Genius with a Domain. But the strength he was displaying now—was this really a Genius?! He was clearly a Demon Beast comparable to a Universe Level!
As the blood-colored pill entered his body, the Ape-man Spiritual Master felt intense pain, and accompanying the pain was an seemingly endless supply of Gene Energy and Spiritual Force.
The Ape-man Spiritual Master's face contorted in agony. "Go to hell!"
Amidst his roar, he used a secret technique that consumed a vast amount of Spiritual Force, enhancing the activation of the secret patterns on his third-order Spirit Weapon to suppress the opponent's Spirit Weapon.
At the same time, he pulled out a second-order Force Battle Blade and a battle shield, using a secret technique that burned Gene Energy to greatly increase his speed, and charged towards Ender.
Ender had wanted to stop the Ape-man Spiritual Master the moment he pulled out the blood-colored pill, but he was still a step too slow, allowing the opponent to consume it.
And the increase in strength the opponent gained after consuming the blood-colored pill astonished him.
His manipulated Blood Edge Blade had previously been at an advantage, but now it was suppressed by the opponent's Spirit Weapon.
At the same time, the speed the opponent erupted with under the suppression and restraint of his Domain was extremely fast, forcing him to use the Heavy Defense Shield to block.
While perplexed, Ender was also greatly shocked. "What exactly was the pill he ate? How could it increase his strength so much?"
Bang, bang!
With his Spirit Weapon suppressed and his Heavy Defense Disk struggling to block the Ape-man Spiritual Master's close-quarters combat, Ender was about to fall into danger.
He also noticed the opponent's abnormality; his originally normal face now had protruding cheekbones and sunken eye sockets, and his body had shriveled somewhat.
Clearly, although the blood-colored pill he consumed allowed him to unleash powerful strength, the cost was bodily damage and enduring immense pain. If he dragged out the time, his body would inevitably collapse.
But he couldn't hold on for long. The power the opponent unleashed was too strong; he was already suppressed and likely couldn't drag it out until the opponent's body collapsed.
The Ape-man Spiritual Master used his battle shield to knock away the Heavy Defense Shield, then closed in and slashed Ender across the chest.
Clang!
Amidst the metallic clang, the powerful slash from the second-order Force Battle Blade sent Ender flying backward.
Burning the Gene Energy that had just recovered a bit, he used the 'Burning Energy Escape Technique,' using the impact force of the Ape-man Spiritual Master's powerful strike to create distance.
Ender secretly rejoiced, "Good thing I have the crimson light box to block, otherwise this strike..."
"Wait!" His expression subtly changed, as if he thought of something. "Right! I have the crimson light box with the fifth-order Spirit Weapon fragment inside!"
He pulled out crimson light box number one from his chest, holding it with one hand and activating the secret patterns on it, intending to open the crimson light box.
"Die!"
The Ape-man Spiritual Master, whose body had shriveled from consuming the blood-colored pill and whose eyes and mouth were streaming with tears and saliva from the pain, now charged forward with his blade raised.
"We'll see who dies!"
Ender transmitted his voice while using Spiritual Force to open the crimson light box.
As the crimson light box opened, a faint, profound, and terrifying aura surged out from within, spreading wildly in all directions!
The Ape-man Spiritual Master, who had just charged over, was stunned after sensing this profound and terrifying aura.
Being merely an ordinary Universe Level fourth-stage Spiritual Master, how could he have ever experienced the lingering aura of an Immortal? That profound, terrifying, and extremely majestic aura, even if faint, was not something he could adapt to.
"Is this what a God is?"
At this moment, the Ape-man Spiritual Master, who was already close to madness, his Divine Sense instantly became clear, and he seemed to see a tall, sacred, and extremely majestic figure.
"Now!"
Ender, having undergone a long period of will tempering, had long since adapted to the lingering aura of the Immortal on the fifth-order Spirit Weapon fragment.
Seeing the Ape-man Spiritual Master stunned by the profound and terrifying aura, he moved his mind, using Spiritual Force to manipulate the fifth-order Spirit Weapon fragment, and thrust it towards his head.
At this moment, the Ape-man Spiritual Master, who seemed to see a tall and sacred figure, appeared to see a god-like figure raise a hand and strike him!
And he didn't even have the courage to resist, only able to watch helplessly, finally letting out a desperate cry, "No!"
Pfft!
How sharp was the fifth-order Spirit Weapon fragment? Even with his third-order Force Armor protection, the Ape-man Spiritual Master was still pierced through the head with one strike, dead beyond dead!
With the death of its master, the third-order Spirit Weapon, which had temporarily been motionless due to being awed by the lingering aura of the Immortal, disintegrated into hundreds of blades and clattered to the ground.
Thud!
As the Ape-man Spiritual Master's corpse fell to the ground, Ender's tense heart finally relaxed, and he let out a long breath. "Phew! He's finally dead. I almost died."
Originally, he had been suppressing the Ape-man Spiritual Master, but as the opponent consumed that blood-colored pill, the battle situation changed, and the power the opponent unleashed was extremely powerful.
"Who exactly are these six Universe Level cultivators?" He was a bit puzzled, looking down at the Ape-man Spiritual Master's corpse. "The pill he just took was clearly squeezing his body. If he couldn't kill the enemy in a short time, he would also die from his body collapsing."
"Hm!"
Ender, still deep in thought, suddenly looked up, his expression somewhat shocked!
