Chapter 228: 125 Power Absorption Technique, Fierce Bird Second Transformation! (8K!)

A punch through the chest!

This punch was filled with rage!

The man in the gray robe chattered incessantly, hiding and skulking in the darkness like a fly within a room that could be heard but never found.

Annoying, exceedingly annoying.

However, the ultimate fate of a fly is to be swatted dead by a palm.

And the man in the gray robe was abruptly hanging in Bai Xiao’s hand.

"Cough cough cough..."

Blood, copious amounts of crimson blood, violently spewed from his mouth.

The man in gray robe was suspended mid-air, his life rapidly slipping away. In his dimming pupils lingered disbelief and a deep sense of unwillingness. He had lost too swiftly—so swiftly that he never even had the chance to play his trump card before Bai Xiao slew him!

"I clearly still had Evil Ghost possession..."

"I could have activated the Life Tree Branch and retreated quickly..."

"Why, why didn’t you give me a chance!"

His eyes stared fixedly at Bai Xiao, almost popping out of their sockets.

Bai Xiao’s black pupils remained icy cold, as if harboring two ice-cold arrows.

There was no why; what he wanted was to kill with a single blow!

Battle was always a gamble involving overall strength, seizing of opportunities, and each combatant’s trump card. Within this gamble, there was no shortage of those who reserved their trump cards, hoping to play them at a critical moment. Yet they would upend prematurely in the early phase, overwhelmed by a relentless and unstoppable offensive, ending up dead on the spot.

Without even a chance to reveal their backup plan.

This was the result of flawed judgment and battle instincts.

Suddenly, Bai Xiao deployed the Burst State Hundred Python Swallowing Elephant, Qi and blood explosive enhancement level 4. He feigned vulnerability by intentionally revealing a flaw, then seized the opportunity decisively. A thunderous counterattack burst forth, swiftly securing the victory!

Bai Xiao’s combat instincts were far superior to those of the man in the gray robe.

Therefore, the man’s death was nothing to feel wronged about.

If there was anything to blame, it was his own failure to use his full strength from the beginning.

"Ssslah!!!"

In the darkness.

Bai Xiao spread his hands wide, his veins-covered claws ripped outward.

Instantly, the man in the gray robe’s corpse was torn in half.

A mist of blood fell from mid-air, drizzling down like a light rain.

The mastermind behind the scenes was dead.

Bai Xiao’s robust figure stood amidst the blood rain that filled the sky.

He turned to look into the distance where the villa lights barely reached, and a chaos ensued among the Muscle Giant Birds that now behaved erratically.

They were no longer targeting the villa in a coordinated flock.

Instead, they turned into a typical wild beast pack, a scene of chaos. Many of them, unleashing their Iron Claws, ran straight into the distant darkness, while many stood bewildered in place, not knowing what to do. Only a handful charged towards the villa.

Thump!

A hole appeared in the ground, with black mud splattering.

Bai Xiao vanished from the spot in an instant.

Boom!

In front of Wei Dong, a Muscle Giant Bird with its fangs and claws outstretched was forcefully pressed by a muscular arm onto its head and slammed into the side wall.

Bai Xiao’s towering figure suddenly appeared amid the throng of Muscle Giant Birds.

He spread his arms wide, and white steam swirled.

Moo!!!

A steam Giant Elephant, lifting its feet high, trampled through with its trunk swinging fiercely. The Muscle Giant Birds scattered and flew aimlessly, feathers exploding in all directions. In an instant, they let out agonized cries, dead or injured. Though the steam Giant Elephant was only about three meters tall—roughly equivalent to a Muscle Giant Bird of middling strength—the two were on completely different levels in terms of momentum and power.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang!

Wherever Bai Xiao went.

The heads of the Muscle Giant Birds were pressed into the walls as if struck by a hammer, with a series of massive collisions sounding like firecrackers.

In just twenty seconds.

All the Muscle Giant Birds that dared to invade the villa were obliterated.

The rest gathered within the light at the doorway no longer dared to take half a step further. Even as some sort of bloody, sinister creatures, they instinctively felt fear. The villa seemed like an abyss that devoured lives.

Tak tak tak...

In the villa’s main hall.

A strong, dark silhouette slowly advanced.

The blood on the floor was thick, making the sound of footsteps on it muffled.

Bai Xiao’s upper body was bare, drenched in blood.

"Xiaozi, are you alright? You’re covered in blood."

Perhaps because of the events that transpired last time, Wei Dong had become much braver. Facing this blood-drenched scene, he didn’t cower in terror. However, his complexion had turned significantly paler.

He plucked up the courage and asked Bai Xiao with concern.

"It’s fine, it’s someone else’s blood..."

Bai Xiao’s gaze swept over the huge, incomplete carcasses around him. Some crushed the tables, shattered the furniture, or became wedged in the walls.

"It’s a relief that you’re unharmed."

Wei Dong let out a sigh of relief. Out of nowhere, he procured a white towel and handed it to Bai Xiao, "What exactly is going on?"

Bai Xiao took the towel and began wiping the rank blood from his face.

He looked around and said,

"We are now in the Deep World."

"A bizarre place completely different from the real world."

"This is my first time entering here too..."

Wei Dong mulled it over, "So how are we to leave this place?"

Bai Xiao shook his head, uttering solemnly,

"That man in the gray robe died too quickly."

There wasn’t a hint of regret or pity in his words.

Bai Xiao could sense that the man had trump cards and likely a formidable background. If he hadn’t eliminated him in an instant, the one in trouble next would have been himself. Killing and then regretting has no meaning.

A minute later.

Bai Xiao began to survey the surroundings methodically.

First was the encompassing darkness that devoured the sight around the villa.

When he tried to reach out into it, he immediately felt negative effects creeping onto him; Bai Xiao sensed that his strength was draining faster.
