Lu Ce stood there. Even though the opposing Sun was in a state of kneeling on both knees, hands propping up his own body, he was still taller than Lu Ce.
But he just stood there, chin slightly raised, yet seeming to look down upon everything, as if all things in this world had to bow their heads to him.
And from his mouth ca words that seed sowhat inconsistent with the personality of "Pride." That arrogant face actually revealed a trace of pity.
Lu Ce knew this was not a fair fight.
For Sun, he himself possessed far too many inherent advantages.
But where in this world is there any fairness to speak of? Everyone is rely running desperately from their own starting point.
If not for his own existence, perhaps Sun truly would have been the absolute pinnacle among humans.
"Fair?"
Just as Lu Ce's own spirit began to grow sowhat hazy, the Sun across from him slowly pushed himself up, speaking in a hoarse voice.
"Have you already started spouting this kind of bullshit, like a victor's declaration!"
"When you die in a mont, don't you dare put on a face of disbelief for ."
This ti, Pride didn't even bother to nod his head, speaking calmly:
"That would indeed be unbelievable..."
"It's not as if you've ever beaten either."
Before the words had even faded, a ferocious aura was already rushing towards him. Sun, with the montum of carrying Mount Tai, pounced forward once more.
This ti, although he still looked fierce and savage, Lu Ce, holding the Extre Path Battle Axe in one hand, shook his head slightly.
If the long period of collisions before could still be called evenly matched, then this ti, the opponent's physical condition and energy state were truly far too hollow inside despite a strong exterior.
After such a long period of "mutual grinding," both sides had already grasped, even grown accustod to, the thod of using Divine Power.
But for Lu Ce, power originated from his own self. Coupled with Gluttony's ability, it was still constantly nourishing and repairing his body.
As for Sun, when he used power, that power was a double-edged sword for him, inherently even capable of causing damage to his own body.
One waning, the other waxing. After such a long ti, it was finally reflected in this collision.
BOOM!
The golden battle axe collided with that mountain-like body. The golden radiance made it impossible to see the specifics clearly, but the next second, that massive figure was sent flying backwards.
This ti, the one sent flying was only him alone. Lu Ce's feet were rooted like trees in the ground, unmoving.
Blood splattered from the axe blade. Sun's body plowed a long, deep furrow in the ground, as if directly carving a canyon into this world.
As the dust settled, Lu Ce looked silently at the trench before him, then strode forward, his steps swift. He soon arrived before Sun once more.
At this mont, Sun's eyes were sowhat vacant. He lay quietly at the end of the furrow he had carved, eyes wide open, lost in unknown thoughts.
The flas on his body were still burning, but the fire in his eyes seed to have already been extinguished.
How is this possible... The gap, is it still this large?
I clearly had a rocket-like speed of leveling up. Why, at every stage, could the opponent's strength still steadily suppress ?
[The outco is decided. Not much different from what we anticipated.]
From high in the sky, Death's leisurely voice transmitted, entering War's ears.
War was also unconcerned. He even seed sowhat satisfied.
Originally, his ultimate goal was the person "Sin." This "Sun" had already fulfilled his mission very well; that was already quite good.
This human pinnacle battle, whose duration was unknown, seed to have decided its victor at this mont, catching countless spectators off guard.
[: What's going on? How did he suddenly collapse? Didn't it look evenly matched just now?]
[: It's over. Is that man still the insurmountable mountain?]
[: Su—n—!]
The external disturbances and discussions could not penetrate this final battlefield. Lu Ce and the fallen Sun across from him stood and lay respectively, facing each other in silence.
Between the two, it seed only their own heavy breathing and the sound of blood rushing through their muscles could be heard.
"Remarkable..."
Sun spoke, his voice trembling and unsteady, seeming to have lost much of its chaos and ferocity, gaining a touch of lancholy.
His exaggerated muscles were still bulging, yet they could no longer support him in launching another charge.
*Clink.*
Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out within this space, pulling Sun back from his reminiscences that were like a revolving lantern.
"Hmm?"
Following the sound with confusion, Sun's pupils instantly contracted. Then, his entire face twisted with rage.
—It was a single, golden, Exit Coin!
For the contention between the most top-tier players, this thing had long since lost any use. No player still thought about using an Exit Coin to run away after realizing they couldn't win.
"You! What do you an!"
Blood stained the corner of Sun's mouth as he glared at the "Sin" across from him, gnashing his teeth.
"This is not ant as an insult. Being able to fight to this extent, you are already strong."
"It's just that I don't want Them to win."
"Try it. It might not necessarily work. You can die anywhere, but at least you shouldn't die here."
Lu Ce's calm voice ca out, like advice between friends.
Sun's furious eyes stared at him for a long ti. Then his gaze shifted, looking down at the spot beneath his feet, at that Exit Coin shimring with golden light.
After pondering for a long while, he suddenly began to laugh uproariously. The laughter shook this sky. His entire person, as if experiencing a final surge of vitality, abruptly sprang up from the ground.
He forcefully shook off the bloodstains on his body, stomped one foot on the ground with earth-shattering power, sending that Exit Coin flying out, shooting towards "Sin."
Lu Ce moved like lightning, steadily catching the Exit Coin in his hand.
"I ask you, 'Sin,' if you were the one who lost today, would you choose to linger on in a miserable existence?"
Lu Ce: ...
Lu Ce didn't speak at first, rely putting away the Exit Coin in his hand. Finally, he replied:
"I have never once considered the possibility of losing."
"Well said!" Sun roared. Simultaneously, the flas on his body ignited once more. Only this ti, the burning seed to co from within.
His chest beca fiery red. The beating of his heart was clearly visible, as if ready to explode at any mont.
"I didn't think about losing this ti either!"
"Finally, if it's possible, send off. Of course, the prerequisite is that you can withstand it!"
