The King of Black Fog

Chapter 1284 - 568: Displaying Their Skills (Part 3)

The Black Nail is inconspicuous in the universe, able to evade the Divine Sense of cultivators. Before long, the light vanishes, like a candle flame swallowed by darkness.

The Golden Crown emits a golden glow, absorbing the scriptures from the extinguished flame's location.

Continuing forward, asteroids burn, planets shatter, as Heavenly Position experts engage in a life-and-death battle.

Unknowingly, black fog closes in from all directions, and by the time both sides realize, it's already too late.

Heavenly Position experts let out mortal-like, wretched screams before completely vanishing into the black fog.

The lurking powerful figures in the shadows, ready to snatch the leftovers, shudder and quickly retreat.

Bang!

A black hand extends from the black fog, stretching across the vast galaxy to grasp the Heavenly Position expert in its palm.

"Ah!!" The expert goes berserk, struggling with all their might.

The black hand surprisingly cannot restrain him, its five fingers being pried open!

"Time Stop."

The expert freezes in place.

The second black hand emerges from the back of the first black hand, pressing the expert's head into the first black hand.

The Golden Crown glows, absorbing the scriptures from the Sea of Consciousness of the three individuals.

Li Changzhou moves forward, hunting along the way, continually testing his Ultimate Divine Skill, facing no equal.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, he slightly turns his head; a claw imbued with Heavenly Will sweeps past his forehead.

The beings from the Six Great Stars and the Thirty-Six New Worlds break out in a cold sweat, the scene so vivid and close, as if they barely escaped death!

Li Changzhou dodges the claw, and as he turns to pursue, the claw vanishes into the void.

"Does a cornered rabbit bite back?" Li Changzhou chuckles, lifting his foot to give chase.

Whoosh!

A small figure suddenly clings to his back, holding an inverted dark dagger, drawing it across his neck.

Clang!!!

The scene slows down by hundreds of billions of times, as beings witness the dagger sparking in a series of bursts across Li Changzhou's neck.

They also see the attacker's eyes, exposed outside, transition from fierce calmness to vicious anger, and eventually to frantic panic, along with the sparks.

Li Changzhou reaches out with his left hand, grabbing behind him.

The attacker falls backward, disappearing into the void.

Li Changzhou grabs nothing, then withdraws his hand to touch his neck, feeling nothing. After the first ambush, he had already activated his ninth move "Invulnerability."

Experiment complete, the effect is satisfactory.

The attacker's burst of power was quite strong.

A True Dragon before entering the first Holy City would have been decapitated by this dagger.

But this wasn't enough to test the limits of "Invulnerability."

"Void?" He glances around, "Is it the power of [Heavenly Will·Space]'s holder?"

He has some achievements in space, yet unable to fully capture the spatial transformations before him, indicating the opponent's mastery of space surpasses his.

"It's not only the Divine King who can master space." A voice of uncertain direction replies.

"Your methods are impressive." Li Changzhou says, "I'll give you an opportunity; submit to me, and hunt with me."

"A turtle in a jar, daring to boast!"

Many scenes from Life Stars cut to this scene.

Spectators gasp, time slows again: a participant clad in black armor suddenly appears behind Li Changzhou.

His movements are unbelievably fast, with fragments of time swirling, as a Fist Seal strikes toward the back of Li Changzhou's head.

The scene shifts to Li Changzhou's face, his lips move slightly, uttering two words—

Time Stop.

Everything freezes.

There is no dazzling light, yet the fist, brimming with endless Divine Power, is just a fingertip's distance from him.

Li Changzhou turns around, raising his left hand, a Black Nail materializes.

He doesn't intend to kill, but to control.

The vast galaxy, with myriad participants, makes solo hunting inefficient; this team could be useful.

"Boom——"

The halted time shatters like glass; a slim figure jumps in from behind the glass.

The opponent also possesses time-based abilities!

"Kill!!" The slim figure, a woman, suddenly appears behind Li Changzhou, crossing time just like the previous black-armor attacker who shattered space to appear behind him.

The people of the Universe's Six Great Stars clench their fists, as if their hearts are being gripped.

Li Changzhou flicks out the Black Nail.

The Black Nail ignores the black armor, piercing the forehead.

Simultaneously, the woman's short sword pierces from the back of Li Changzhou's head, the tip emerging from his forehead.

Time resumes.

"Father!" Yang Tianlu stands up in shock.

The people of Earth gasp in terror.

Having his head pierced isn't significant, but fearing that the Divine Sense is also pierced. How could a Heavenly Position assassin not target the Divine Sense?

"Is the King of Black Fog going to die?"

"Who are these people? They're so strong!"

The woman is about to unleash her energy to completely crush Li Changzhou's head, but an icy sensation hits her back; she swiftly withdraws, retreating into the void.

Li Changzhou's forehead is pierced through back and forth, his Divine Sense dissipating too.

"We won!" Four voices cheer.

"Black Armor!!" They shout again.

Black Armor stands motionless; his assault was as much an ambush as it was bait. With Black Armor present, being injured as bait shouldn't be an issue, yet he stands still, not retreating into the void.

"Resurrection."

Boom!

Flames burst from Li Changzhou, healing the head wound, his Divine Sense restored and strong once more.

As the flames fade, he stands as if nothing happened.

The fourth move "Resurrection" experiment is complete, and as anticipated, the Divine Sense can be restored too.

"Speak up." Li Changzhou says.

Black Armor replies, "We are five in total: Sirius, Time Girl, Assassin, Space Mouse, Black Armor. I'm Black Armor, skilled in melee combat, responsible for keeping the enemy engaged..."

"Black Armor!!" The four figures shout again.

"He's been controlled, kill the King of Black Fog!"

"No, retreat first! We can't kill him with our strength!"

"...Space Mouse is responsible for digging spatial tunnels, Assassin, Sirius, and Time Girl handle assassinations.

"The strongest is Time Girl, capable of time jumping, Sirius is the fastest, Assassin has the highest attack, I have the strongest defense."

Black Armor reveals all the intelligence.

"We formed the team after entering the Holy City, having hunted the top ten of the Ninth Stargate."

Countless spectators draw a sharp breath, no wonder they dared to challenge the King of Black Fog, they have impressive battle achievements, with sufficient confidence.

Compared to earlier instances, the King of Black Fog avoiding multiple ambushes and subduing an enemy with a single blow, even restoring Divine Sense, doesn't surprise people much.

After all, the King of Black Fog is originally one of the top figures, no matter how miraculous, it fits the expectations.

Five came, four have fled.

Li Changzhou looks at Black Armor: "Skilled in melee and defense, leaving you alone is of no use, hunting them wastes my time."

The task in the sixth city is about counting the kill number, four attackers aren't worth him going all out regardless of victory or loss.

Inside Black Armor, the Black Nail redirects, piercing a dead line.

Black Armor dies, increasing the kill count by one.

Scriptures fly out from Black Armor's corpse, absorbed by the Golden Crown, growing more resplendent.

Li Changzhou continues onward.
