Chapter 1360: Chapter 563: 100% Sacrifice Offering

Wang Tao attacked the monster and kept an eye on Zhao Yue.

When he saw Zhao Yue take out the Summoning Altar, Wang Tao didn’t hesitate and immediately moved behind Zhao Yue, lifting his greatsword to strike him down.

In theory, the Summoning Altar wasn’t an offensive piece of equipment, and using it in battle would be ineffective. But what if Zhao Yue had prepared a sacrifice in advance and wanted to make a last-minute offering to boost his strength?

Therefore, Wang Tao had been guarding against Zhao Yue, and upon noticing any sign that Zhao Yue might use the Altar, he immediately intervened to stop him.

Though Ge Fuxing and his group weren’t exactly saints, and their real deaths wouldn’t matter—Changhe Base could just air-drop a new management—the problem was that Wang Tao wasn’t sure how much Zhao Yue’s power could increase. If he advanced to Seventh Level or even higher, he would become a much harsher opponent for Wang Tao. It was essential to prevent him before his power surged!

Zhao Yue was actually quite guarded, always wary of people like Ge Fuxing, and naturally did not let down his guard against Wang Tao, who was a powerful stranger.

But what Zhao Yue hadn’t anticipated was that in such a critical situation, Wang Tao would launch a sneak attack! And more surprisingly, Wang Tao’s speed was so great, even faster than his! Such speed...was that really Fifth Level?

So, when Zhao Yue realized the sneak attack, it was too late to dodge. He could only watch helplessly as the greatsword swung down towards his head.

Wang Tao had no wish to kill Zhao Yue directly; he wanted to interrogate him about the Dusk Church. But the situation was urgent and he couldn’t afford not to finish off Zhao Yue now; a complication could arise later on.

Therefore, Wang Tao showed no mercy, and considering Zhao Yue’s already low HP, if this strike landed, even as a Sixth Rank Awakened, he might not survive.

What surprised Wang Tao, though, was upon realizing the sneak attack, Zhao Yue showed shock, confusion, and anger, but there was absolutely no fear.

Puchi!

The greatsword plunged into the corner of Zhao Yue’s right eye, cleaving his head open and continuing diagonally downward, splitting him into uneven halves.

Blood sprayed, organs scattered, and before he could even grunt, Zhao Yue was bisected, still clutching the small Summoning Altar in his hand.

A one-hit kill?

Wang Tao should have been pleased, but watching Zhao Yue’s bisected body, his face showed no joy but was even more serious than before!

Zhao Yue didn’t have impressive armor or defensive Abilities and Awakening, and his physical condition couldn’t compare to that of the monsters or zombies. So even though he was a Sixth Rank Awakened, his defensive power was not high. Under Wang Tao’s full-force attack, he was split in two. The swing dealt 82,341 damage but...Zhao Yue didn’t die; he still had a single drop of HP!

[1/1,000,000]

Wang Tao couldn’t believe the damage fell short by just that single drop of blood, especially since Zhao Yue was clearly cleaved in half, dead as dead can be... This definitely wasn’t due to Wang Tao’s lack of damage, but rather something had happened to Zhao Yue!

Without a second thought, Wang Tao lifted his sword to strike Zhao Yue again.

Bang!

But this time, Wang Tao’s blade couldn’t reach Zhao Yue because a faint white light glowed from Zhao Yue’s body, forming a shield that protected him. Wang Tao’s strike hit the shield and was blocked.

"There’s definitely a problem!"

Wang Tao swung several more times, each without effect. He tried to grab the Summoning Altar in Zhao Yue’s hand, but was also blocked.

"..."

Wang Tao found himself in a bind; Zhao Yue’s situation seemed much like a resurrection mechanism in some games...

Then he saw the light from the shield growing brighter, and Zhao Yue’s body inside started healing, his HP rapidly increasing!

At that moment, a deep black fog appeared nearby, and a shadowy monster silently approached Wang Tao. With Zhao Yue gone, its target naturally shifted to Wang Tao.

Whoosh—

As the shadowy monster launched its attack, Wang Tao instantly vanished from sight. His Mental Detection was always active; a sneak attack was nearly impossible.

However, the shadowy monster was also fast and immediately pursued Wang Tao.

And after Wang Tao had evaded the shadowy monster’s strikes a few times, from the sun-like shield, a small disc suddenly flew out—it was the Summoning Altar!

The Summoning Altar quickly grew larger upon landing. Wang Tao tried to get out of the range of the Altar, but a blinding white light suddenly appeared. After being shone upon by the light, his body froze for a second.

That single second was enough for the Altar’s reach to extend. When he regained his freedom, he found himself standing on the Summoning Altar.

Not just him; Jiang Shixue, Lan Yulian, Lightning, and even that shadowy monster were forced onto the Altar.

At the same time, numerous blood-colored patterns lit up on the Altar.

Seeing these patterns, Wang Tao’s countenance grew very grave. There weren’t a few sacrifices within this Altar!

Swish—

At the center of the Summoning Altar, the light from the shield began to fade, then vanished altogether. A slender figure emerged in front of Wang Tao.

It was Zhao Yue, his body unharmed, not a sign of injury, and his one million HP had been fully restored—and he wasn’t even at full health when he arrived. His HP increased the more he fought?
