Chapter 189 - Fierce Battle in the Palace of Fierce Beasts
Mike continued to move upwards.
The White Spirit Dragon followed closely behind him.
Finally, after climbing the stairs for a while, the two of them arrived at the second floor of the Palace of Fierce Beasts.
The scene in front of them made the two of them fall into a state of shock again.
All they could see were the corpses of countless Fierce Beast Palace soldiers hanging in the middle of the second floor.
Each and every one of them had a ferocious look on their faces as they hung from the roof beams with terrified expressions.
Their corpses were like dried corpses that had been sucked clean.
Their eyes were wide open as they stared fixedly at the roof beams.
Their mouths were also wide open.
Each and every one of their deaths had been extremely tragic.
Looking at this scene, the White Spirit Dragon felt a sense of fear in his heart.
He spoke to Mike again.
“Mike, I think we should leave this place!
“The aura here is too strange!”
Mike ignored the White Spirit Dragon’s words and continued to carefully examine the remains of the soldiers.
Suddenly, Mike found that the corpses of the soldiers were not like the layer of beast remains.
Those had been full of maggots, rats, and flies. However, it seemed like even these creatures did not want to get close to these corpses.
As for the reason why, Mike already came to his conclusion about it in his mind.
Seeing that Mike was continuing to move forward, the White Spirit Dragon followed closely behind him.
Mike was preparing to head towards the third level of the Palace of Fierce Beasts.
Mike came to the third level of the Palace of Fierce Beasts.
He raised his head to look at the darkness of the third level.
In his mind, he felt that all his answers were about to be explained.
Mike looked at the White Spirit Dragon and said, “Let’s go! This is the last floor! All the answers are hidden there!”
As he said this, the White Spirit Dragon looked at Mike again and asked, “Mike, do you feel it?”
Mike listened to the White Spirit Dragon’s words and began to focus his attention.
Soon, Mike felt it as well.
He turned to the White Spirit Dragon and said, “You mean…”
Before Mike could finish, a loud explosion sounded from the third floor.
The ear-piercing sound of the explosion also blinded Mike and the White Spirit Dragon momentarily.
“Quick! Let’s go upstairs and take a look!”
As he said that, Mike immediately headed towards the third floor of the Palace of the Fierce Beasts.
He quickly climbed up the stairs and soon reached the third level.
After reaching the third level, they found a huge flame that was burning on a huge statue.
The statue looked extremely lifelike.
It looked like a human body that had a layer of plaster on its skin.
Beside the statue was a man in black.
When the man in black sensed Mike and the White Spirit Dragon’s aura, he grinned as he spoke to the two of them.
“I really didn’t expect you guys to have the guts to come here!”
“Who are you? Why are you here?”
Mike asked sharply.
The man in black did not answer, but continued to sneer.
Soon, he opened his mouth again and said to the two of them, “Get ready to bid farewell to this world!”
Following the arrogant words of the man in black, the burning statue behind him began to crack.
Then, from within the statue, a strange man with red eyes awoke.
Suddenly, the plaster covering the strange man’s body completely shattered.
Mike looked at the broken plaster, his mind filled with endless thoughts.
As the strange man’s fighting spirit continued to surge, Mike became fully aware.
The strange man was now just a walking corpse that had been given a soul by the devil.
Mike then addressed the White Spirit Dragon who was behind him.
“Be careful to avoid him later. This guy is not as easy to deal with as you might think!”
The White Spirit Dragon nodded, then immediately retreated to the side.
A golden holy light appeared in the palm of Mike’s hand, which evolved into an even more intense light beam.
In the process of this evolution, the embryonic form of the Holy Sword of God gradually appeared in Mike’s hand.
Mike held the Holy Sword of God in his hand tightly.
At the moment, his heart was full of anticipation for the upcoming battle.
By the looks of it, the strange man he was facing was the strongest opponent he had ever met in this world.
He mobilized all the power in his body and channeled it into the Holy Sword of God that was in his hand.
On the other side, the man in black was laughing maniacally as he shouted a command at the strange man.
“Kill that reckless fellow!”
As he said this, the strange man quickly rushed towards Mike.
Mike looked at the strange man who was approaching him.
He was shocked, but soon, Mike got the answer that he wanted.
The strength of the strange man in front of him was not as strong as he had originally thought.
The Holy Sword of God continued to attack the strange man, but the strange man did not make a move to block it at all.
By the looks of it, it was as if he just allowing Mike to attack.
It’s attitude seemed very casual.
Then, Mike smiled and said, “So it’s a paper tiger[1]! I thought it was strong!”
As he said this, Mike waved the Holy Sword of God in his hand again.
The fierce golden blade once again slashed at the strange man’s body.
In one moment, the strange man’s body was completely cut into two.
Looking at the scene in front of him, this was obviously not the result that the man in black had expected at all.
He had not expected that the silver-haired boy in front of him would be so powerful.
However, at this moment, the strange man still had not fallen even though he had been cut into two pieces.
On the contrary, the two halves of his body continued to strike back at Mike.
Mike looked at the strange scene in front of him.
An answer instantly came to his mind.
So, Mike raised the Holy Sword of God in his hand.
Countless golden lights gathered toward the sword.
Soon, all the sword qi in the air turned into a golden holy light that shone in the entire space.
White Spirit Dragon, who was standing at the side, could not help but sigh when he saw this scene.
Then, Mike threw all the sword tips of the Holy Sword of God that was in his hand, in the direction of the strange man.
When the tip of the huge golden sword came into contact with the strange man’s body, a huge holy aura filled the entire space.
It was then that the strange man’s body finally received the destruction that he deserved.
Every part of his body turned to dust in that moment.
