The Supreme God novel Chapter 316

The figure that emerged from the tree was not a living person. Its face was dry and wrinkled, completely dehydrated. It was skinny with deeply set eyes. Two green eyeballs were fixed on them like ghost fire. It was tall and all of its bones could be seen under the skin. It was terrible to look at and would give anyone the creeps.

Austin didn't feel any vitality from it, but there was a thick death breath and the smell of a rotting corpse. However, from its bony body, Austin could feel that it had tremendous strength.

Austin and Violet realized that the rotten odor that they had smelled earlier had emanated from it. It was blocked by the dead wood, so it was not so strong.

Sensing that there was something strange about the dead tree, Austin attacked it with the sword-light. And unexpectedly, the corpse appeared before their eyes.

"What's this?" Violet asked in surprise.

"I have no idea, but I'm quite sure it's not a living person," Austin answered, shaking his head.

While they were talking, their faces turned pale. They were terrified when they saw the withered body in front of them carry a strange expression on its wrinkled face. It seemed to be grinning, but because of its wizened face, the grin seemed very strange and fierce. Suddenly a hoarse voice came from its mouth, "Ho ho…".

The growl was extremely weird and harsh. It was blood-curdling.

Listening to his growl, Violet couldn't stop shivering and hid behind Austin.

Instantly, the withered body pounced on Austin, trying to attack him.

Austin had to react quickly. He brandished his Violet Royal Sword and attacked the corpse with more than thirty rays of sword-light again.

Faced by Austin's attack, the corpse started howling in a low voice. It didn't evade the attack, but crossed its arms over its chest. A wisp of faint yellow smoke was released from all over its body and instantly wrapped him. It rushed towards Austin to face the rays of sword-light.

With a stern look, Austin didn't do anything else, but looked at the corpse coldly.

The sword-light he shot precisely hit the corpse's arms, but its body just shook slightly under the strong impact. Its arms were unharmed in the faint yellow smoke which was spiraling up. Only loud clashes could be heard.

'Its body is so strong. Even my vital energy force of the premium stage of Earth Realm isn't causing any damage to it. It's surprising.'

Austin increased his vital energy to more than 30 rays of sword-light. Each of his vital energy was adding up more power to his attack, yet the withered body was able to withstand it easily.

Warding off Austin's sword-light, the withered body rushed over to Austin and extended a big shriveled hand. Its long, black fingernails gave out a cold dim light as it tried to grab Austin's head.
