Chapter 332: Nobody should have thoughts on grabbing tomorrow’s headlines!

Kali quietly looked at Shi Xiaobai’s wanton killing on the plains as she felt her heart aching for him. She was filled with worry for him.

At this moment, Shi Xiaobai had nearly lost all reason, as well as his humanity. He was immersed in anger. The only thought he had was to engage in a killing spree to vent his anger.

And this was the terrible price of accepting the corruptive power.

Kali was too powerful and her power of light was nearly endless. Therefore, the small patch of darkness would require a long period of time in order to completely overwhelm her reason.

However, with Shi Xiaobai’s power, the darkness was like a starless night that nearly engulfed his consciousness.

Shi Xiaobai was unable to resist the corruptive power. He was unable to suppress the anger from the deepest depths of his soul that constantly inundated him. His body could no longer bear the swelling of his anger.

Therefore, Shi Xiaobai was in urgent need to vent. Killing was the best way at venting his anger.

However, even though he had slaughtered the large number of monsters in such a brutal manner, the flames of his fury were still burning incessantly. There was no way for him to stop.

Kali sighed heavily.

Before Shi Xiaobai’s anger was completely dissipated, how many legions of creatures would perish? How grave was the sin of killing?

“Regardless of what you become, I’ll always stay by your side.”

Kali looked gently at Shi Xiaobai as her eyes flashed with a look of resolve.

The silver-haired youth rushed straight to the palace. His thirst for killing made him instinctively search for life.

As long as it was something alive, regardless of what it was, he wanted to kill it because he was very angry.

He did not know why he was so angry.

He did not know, but neither was there a need to know.

The only thought in his mind was to kill!

Even though his hands were stained with sin, even if he was bathed in blood, he still wanted to kill, kill, kill!

The dual-blade demon’s eyes were filled with icy-cold killing intent. It did not flee but raised his dual blades as it faced the silver-haired youth charging at it.

There was no way it could defeat the pixie, it did not even have the courage to do so. However, it did not mean that it would give up because of this. Furthermore, the one attacking him was not the powerful pixie, but a weak human that was injured by useless drakes!

Based on what?

Based on what could such a scum think on killing it!?

“You have indeed become stronger, but how much stronger can you be? Foolish human. I’ll instantly kill you and let the pixie regret her naivety forever!”

The dual-blade demon sneered in his heart. Why did a demon from hell need to fear death? Even if it were to die, it would rip out the enemy’s heart and flesh!

On the plains, the blood spilled formed rivers. The silver-haired youth and the gigantic demon that was five meters tall rushed at each other in anger as they splattered the blood beneath their feet. The distance between them quickly decreased, and in a few seconds, they were in front of each other!

This was not a fortuitous encounter, nor was it a beautiful unexpected meeting, but a conflict between life and death!

“Die!”

The dual-blade demon roared angrily as its two gigantic black curved blades slashed at the silver-haired youth!

Space was ripped apart at that moment by the curved blade as two black ravines as deep as an abyss ruptured as they advanced towards the youth!

Even the sound of wind was ruptured. The slashing of the two blades made the plains fall silent. The dual-blade demon’s expression was hideous as his eyes had a glimmer of anticipation.

It was anticipating that a scream from the human in front of it would break the silence!

Suddenly, the two void tearing blade beams that the dual-blade demon brandished seemed to crash into a wall. They stopped suddenly!

“Oh?”

The dual-blade demon was taken by surprise as it looked down. It saw the silver-haired youth within reach of it having caught the dual blades with his bare hands!

The dual-blade demon hurriedly moved forward, in an attempt to sever the two slender palms before beheading that loathsome head.

But at the next moment, with two booms, the two precious blades the dual-blade demon brought from hell had been shattered into countless pieces.

“How is it possible!?”

The dual-blade demon stared at Shi Xiaobai with widened eyes. It found it unbelievable that its blades had been shattered into pieces instantly by the pair of small hands.

However, a blood-stained hand had reached its shoulders at the next moment.

“No!”

The dual-blade demon had a drastic change in expression as it finally realized the cruel reality of the situation. The human in front of it had not only suddenly become powerful, he had become outrageously strong!

However, what could the dual-blade demon do in front of a power that it could not resist?

The only thing he could do was cry tragically!

“Ah!”

The dual-blade demon cried out tragically as its right arm was ripped off!

The overwhelming pain nearly knocked the dual-blade demon unconscious. Its instinct for survival caused it to turn around to flee.

Run. This was no human, it was the devil!

“Ah!”

The dual-blade demon obviously could not escape. Its legs were quickly crushed from the knees as half of its two legs were severed. It fell to the ground, no longer able to stand.

Pain and terror inundated the dual-blade demon’s mind as it cried out tragically as tears began streaming out of its eyes.

“No, don’t kill me! Spare me please!”

The dual-blade demon pleaded for mercy, like a miserable worm trying hard to crawl forward. When it turned its head and saw the silver-haired youth walking towards it, its eyes were filled with a crazy desire to survive.

But soon, it fell into complete despair.

This was because it could see only ice-cold killing intent and cruel anger in the silver-haired youth’s eyes.

“Save me…”

The dual-blade demon cried in pain as it issued a final call for help at the existence that no longer responded.

However, there was no response. Only a silent bloody hand had reached its neck.

“Kacha…”

The dual-blade demon’s head was twisted off as its headless body convulsed. Helplessly, it waited for death.

A few seconds later, a voice that resounded through the entire level was heard.

“The sixth level’s Level Lord [Chthonian Emperor Estark] has been killed. The sixth level has no more Level Lord! The killer is…Shi Xiaobai!”

The dual-blade demon was the sixth level’s Level Lord. And at this moment, the creature Shi Xiaobai killed like he was trampling an ant was the Level Lord.

This was the terrifying aspect of the corruptive power. However, this power was only temporary. It would dissipate very quickly. Furthermore, it only gained a temporary increase in strength at the expense of corruption.

In order to instantly break through the God Slaughtering Formation, Kali had activated this power, but it was ‘siphoned’ by Shi Xiaobai. As such, this power now belonged to Shi Xiaobai.

However, Shi Xiaobai, who was at present immersed in his rage, had long lost his sense and reason. The terrifying power and the honor of killing a Level Lord meant nothing to him!

The only thing he wanted to do now was kill, kill, kill!

On the plains, there were no longer any lives for him to slaughter. Mangled corpses covered the ground and the blood spilled had formed rivers that dyed the lands crimson.

The silver-haired youth turned to look at the purple-haired girl in the sky.

That was the only remaining life.

The silver-haired’s red eyes flashed a desire to kill, but his expression suddenly struggled violently.

Kali descended from the sky and landed beside the silver-haired youth. She held him gently, ignoring the gross smell of blood staining her own clothes.

The silver-haired youth’s body trembled violently as his hands turned stiff. There was a desire to twist the delicate neck within his reach, but a baffling will was resisting his killing instincts.

Kali’s eyes lit up slightly as she suddenly saw a strand of black hair from his mane of silver hair!

This was something that wasn’t there before!

“Shi Xiaobai, resist it. Resist the corruptive power. You can definitely wake up. You have to wake up!”

Kali whispered by Shi Xiaobai’s ear and said resolutely, “Even if you need to slaughter every living creature in this entire trial, I’ll ensure that you wake up!”

Shanghai City, Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower, Main Auditorium

This was the third day the organizations’ rookies entered the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower for the mass selection. More than eight hundred rookies had been eliminated out of the thousand rookies.

There were only four people that were currently on the seventh level. Ever since the construction of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower, only four legendary figures had ever managed to reach the eighth level.

There were about fifty rookies that reached the sixth level, and it was considered an excellent result considering past trials.

As such the people from the organizations were in a festive mood.

The biggest winner was the organization, Gaia. As a bottom second-tier organization, four of its rookies had managed to reach the sixth level. Furthermore, Shi Xiaobai had managed to conquer the third level’s Level Lord, accomplishing the miracle only the Hero King had managed to accomplish.

On the second day of the selection, this matter had appeared on the most authoritative newspaper in China. Although it was only a tiny article, it had caused quite a stir in the country.

Conquering a Level Lord did not sound impressive, something which many people were unaware of the difficulty. However, when it was punctuated with the words, ‘an accomplishment only the Hero King has ever managed’, it caused every citizen of China to gasp in admiration.

However, in this era of heroes, before the fourth epoch of the apocalypse, no matter how sensational it was, it was difficult for a rookie’s accomplishment to hit the headlines. It did not cause an intense stir, and was somewhat defused by the third day of the selection.

Everyone was waiting in the auditorium for the final result. The attention of most people and their discussions had shifted to Speechless, Mu Lengxi, Sunless, and Pulp Farmer who were in the midst of challenging the seventh level.

However, just as everyone was about to ignore Shi Xiaobai, a news that refreshed the stone monument astounded everyone!

Shi Xiaobai had killed the sixth level’s Level Lord!

This was Shi Xiaobai conquering two Level Lords consecutively in the same trial. This was something even the Hero King failed to accomplish years ago!

Shi Xiaobai had created a new record, rewriting history!

At this moment, no one was stingy with their praises. Exclamations and applause filled the entire auditorium.

However, this was just the beginning of everything!

This was a day which was destined to go down in history, one that would shock the entire nation!

At nine in the morning, Shi Xiaobai killed the sixth level’s Level Lord, Chthonian Emperor Estark!

At half past nine in the morning, Shi Xiaobai killed the fifth level’s Level Lord, Death Aristocrat!

At ten in the morning, Shi Xiaobai killed the second level’s Level Lord, Demonic Beast Level Lord!

At half past ten in the morning, Shi Xiaobai killed the first level’s Level Lord, Nightmare Terror Level Lord!

He slaughtered from the sixth level to the first level, killing one Level Lord every half an hour.

Double-kill, triple-kill, quadruple kill…

Adding the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign that was conquered, Shi Xiaobai had conquered five Level Lords alone!

Everyone went from shock to horror, from horror to admiration, and from admiration to numbness.

They only had one thing left on their minds.

Fuck, nobody should have thoughts on grabbing tomorrow’s headlines!
