"Huh?" Darren suddenly sensed faint breathing from the badly injured Divine Bull King as his figure descended. 'He is indeed still alive, ' Darren realized.
He began to approach the demonic monster with utmost caution. For Darren, it would be the best result if he could kill the Divine Bull King via sneak attack with all his strength.
As the faint breathing came nearer, Darren transformed himself into his demon form with his blade and sword intent on standby.
From less than one hundred feet from this breathing, Darren's blade and sword intent surged simultaneously as his body shot at the bottom of the pit like an arrow.
Clang!
"Oh no, I can't break open his defense!"
To Darren's surprise, the blow which he had delivered with all his might didn't even break the Divine Bull King's hard skin. Even though all its bones had been shattered, a dull numbness ran along Darren's arm.
All of a sudden, the Divine Bull King opened his huge eyes. Red light flashed from his angry pupils.
Collapsed on the ground, the demonic monster made no movement, but his breath shot into the air and came at Darren extremely quickly.
Boom!
In the next second, Darren was hit by the jet of the steam and thrown into the cavern wall; a deep hole was formed on the cavern wall with a depth of hundreds of feet.
"Such a powerful force that the breath was enough to strike me back," Darren thought, startled. Suffering great pain, he felt as if all his bones had fallen apart due to the violent impact. He was dismayed that even if his body's hardiness was unable to withstand it.
No strong cultivator at the primary stage of the Wonder Realm could survive the blow of the breath from the Divine Bull King!
After a brief adjustment of his breath, Darren made a move towards the Divine Bull King again. 'Nevertheless, it's impossible for the Divine Bull King to escape because of all his broken bones, ' Darren thought.
But as Darren got closer to the Divine Bull King, he found out he was mistaken. The king's physical body was unexpectedly climbing up along the wall of the pit, slowly but surely.
Moreover, Darren could tell that he was wasting no time in recovering his strength, albeit with a very slow speed.
'He's recovering from his injuries. I will be killed by a palm attack from the demonic monster if I try to come to his side after an hour!' Darren mulled in his mind.
Hastiness stirred in his heart. A demonic monster king was a great treasure for Darren without any doubt. The assimilation of the Divine Bull King's talent would be a huge leap for Darren's own talent, and its blood would be the best material needed for the Demonic Blood Refining Skill.
Swoosh!
In the face of this great temptation, Darren dispatched demonic internal force, simultaneously channeling his blade and sword intent towards at the Divine Bull King, hoping with all his heart to kill him.
"Moo!"
The Divine Bull King stared at Darren intently, his eyes wide open, only a faint, guttural howl escaping from his throat. Right when Darren had released his strike, the metal pillar in his chest suddenly flew out and shot at Darren.
"Blood Dragon Phantom!"
Darren directly used the inheritance skill of the dragons and produced eight avatars in a split second. Surging blade and sword intent gushed out of Darren's body and rushed to the demonic monster with a rumbling sound, accompanied by violent and powerful demonic internal force.
Clang!
Three of Darren's avatars were smashed to pieces by the metal pillar in a second. Severely wounded, this was all what the demonic monster could manage to do. After counterattacking, the metal pillar grew dimmer. All its remaining strength had been exhausted.
Darren and his five avatars continued rushing to the Divine Bull King with all their strength, hitting ferociously at his flesh where Scott's attack had caused cracks to form.
"Moo!"
Blood spurted out of his mouth like waterfall, light beginning to fade from his scarlet eyes.
Urged by his spiritual sense, Darren took out his Space Ring and collected the blood. Even so, his avatars continued launching attacks at the Divine Bull King, cutting open his blood vessels and energy meridians.
Bang!
In his struggle on the brink of death, he still managed to smash three of Darren's avatars with a wave of his huge palm.
"It's time to die!" Darren had collected enough fresh blood. He had gotten what he wanted.
With tremendous blade and sword intent, Darren struck the Divine Bull King with the speed of an arrow, his blade and sword stabbing through his eye sockets and brain.
Hiss.
Eventually, the Divine Bull King stopped struggling as his spiritual energy dispersed in the air. Finally, at long last, he was dead.
"Assimilate!"
