The skull monster was growing anxious. It was also shocked by the power Ye Tian displayed. How could a Martial Artist who hadn't even reached the Seven Veins Power Realm be so formidable?
Ti was of the essence. He had to kill Ye Tian before the potion's effects wore off. This attack was a completely desperate gamble; as long as he didn't die, it would be worth it.
Its Attack Power suddenly doubled, and the pressure on Ye Tian mounted. Although he wielded the Black Glaze Sword in a nigh-impenetrable defense, the skull monster's Wind Blades were too powerful, and many cuts still appeared on his body.
"Kid, let's see how much longer you can last!" Seeing the blood on Ye Tian's body, the skull monster's attacks grew even faster.
Ye Tian didn't say a word. He had nearly exhausted the Frenzied Energy inside him, and the painful, swelling sensation had vanished. However, he discovered that his own power was beginning to rise rapidly.
Or rather, his Power Realm was rising. The feeling was incredible, and the pressure from the skull monster gradually lessened.
The longer they fought, the more relaxed Ye Tian beca, while the skull monster struggled more and more. It was on a ti limit. Despite its powerful attacks, it was now inflicting fewer and fewer wounds on Ye Tian.
"Your ti's about up, you ugly freak! Now, let this young master give you a proper welco!" Ye Tian said, swinging his Black Glaze Sword in another swift slash.
With this slash, Ye Tian could clearly feel several Elents mixed within his Sword Qi—they must have co from the Tribulation Thunder. This single strike was even more powerful than an attack using his War Dragon Heavenly Arm.
In an instant, the surrounding space trembled violently. Ye Tian clearly saw a black hole appear not far away. He couldn't believe it—his attack had actually torn a rift in space.
Zhang Xinlan, watching from a distance, was also stunned. She couldn't believe Ye Tian's attack possessed such terrifying power. Ripping a hole in space was an extrely rare feat; even a battle between experts from the Holy Land wouldn't necessarily produce such a phenonon.
Normally, one would need the power of at least the Eight Veins Realm to tear open space. The fact that Ye Tian had just done so was likely due to the Tribulation Thunder, combined with his already formidable Attack Power.
When space was torn, a black hole would appear. A black hole contained an incredibly powerful suction that could easily pull people in. If one were sucked into the void of a black hole, even a supre expert would face almost certain death.
It was nearly impossible to escape after being sucked into a black hole. The void within was devoid of life, shrouded in absolute darkness, and filled with terrifying turbulence and razor-sharp gales that could instantly tear a person to shreds.
However, these spatial black holes didn't last long and would disappear within a short ti. But being sucked inside before it vanished was still incredibly dangerous.
Therefore, Zhang Xinlan was extrely nervous. "Ye Tian, be careful! Get away from the black hole!"
Her tone was fraught with anxiety. Without a mont's hesitation, Ye Tian's figure flashed, and he rapidly retreated several hundred ters, his eyes fixed on the terrifying black hole.
The skull monster also retreated hastily. Both of them ceased their attacks as a powerful suction force erupted from the black hole. Instantly, sand and stone were sent flying as the very sky seed to change color. The phenonon was countless tis more terrifying than their battle had been.
Of course, because the black hole had appeared, Ye Tian's strike never landed on the skull monster. Otherwise, given its Attack Power, it would have severely wounded it.
"Kid, just who are you? How can you tear open a black hole? And how did your wounds heal in the blink of an eye?" the skull monster asked, glancing at Ye Tian.
"You want to know? I'll tell you after you're dead! The effects of your potion should be about worn off by now. It's ti to end this!" Ye Tian said. He didn't want to drag this out any longer; the sooner he dealt with this thing, the sooner he could leave.
After speaking, Ye Tian unleashed another Gold Slash. The spatial black hole was already healing, its suction noticeably weaker. Soon, the two were fighting again.
But now, Ye Tian's Attack Power was far greater than before. A single strike sliced off the skull monster's other arm and shattered several of its bones, causing it to scream in agony.
The skull monster's regenerative ability was incredibly formidable. After just a few breaths, its arm reappeared, and its broken bones nded. It charged at Ye Tian once more.
"So you really are unkillable! I refuse to believe you can keep growing it back forever!" Ye Tian said angrily.
But when he sliced off the skull monster's arm again, it did not reappear. The faint glow that had been flickering around the creature's body dimd.
Its massive body began to tremble and shrink, gradually reverting to its original form—a middle-aged man, though now he was missing an arm. His eyes were utterly devoid of color, giving him the appearance of a soulless, walking corpse.
"So the potion wore off! Weren't you trying to kill ? Co on, then!" Ye Tian taunted. It was the first ti he had ever encountered such a miraculous Soul Enhancent Potion, and he was quite astonished by it.
The middle-aged man, forrly the skull monster, spoke. "Don't get ahead of yourself! I may not be able to kill you today, but sooner or later, I will take your life!"
Ye Tian was taken aback. 'This guy is in this state and he still dares to run his mouth? He really has a death wish.'
A black Rune appeared in the middle-aged man's hand. He quickly tossed it into the air and declared, "I will repay you double for everything you've done to today!"
As his voice fell, the Rune flared with a white light. A hexagram pattern appeared and began to spin in the air, and the middle-aged man's body was sucked directly into it.
He vanished without a trace in just a few breaths. The sight left both Ye Tian and Zhang Xinlan utterly shocked. What a terrifying way to escape.
Everything returned to calm. The mountain range for miles around had been devastated, as if struck by an earthquake. Many areas were reduced to piles of rubble, and several peaks had vanished entirely.
Zhang Xinlan walked up to Ye Tian. "I can't believe that guy got away! His identity must be extraordinary. To think he had a Black Rune and a Soul Enhancent Potion... He must be from the Demon Realm. Otherwise, he wouldn't possess such heaven-defying items."
"A Black Rune? What's that? I'm completely lost," Ye Tian asked, his face a mask of astonishnt. "You're saying that guy is from the Demon Realm?"
"That's right. Both of those items are actually from the Demon Realm, and they are both extrely precious. I can't imagine how a person like him ca to possess them. His power is only at the Six Vein Realm; logically, he shouldn't have access to such things at all. I have no idea where he could have gotten them," Zhang Xinlan said with a serious expression.
"What kind of world is the Demon Realm? Is it another plane of existence? Like the one that mysterious person we t in the underground chamber was talking about?" Ye Tian asked.
