BXBX NOVEL Chapter 67: Sage Energy
"Damn it."
But that didn\'t mean Ray didn\'t feel the pain. The pain drowned his mind, leaving him completely numb.
"What should I do about this King?" Ray glanced at King with a peculiar glint in his eyes, his mind in deep contemplation.
"As expected of someone who can almost defeat me, Ray. I didn\'t expect you to survive even after two meteors."
King spoke lightly, waving his hand as the surrounding rocks moved slowly, floating in mid-air and aiming at Ray.
"You gotta be kidding me."
Ray cursed King in his heart, they instantly travelled to his location.
At the last moment, Ray vanished, narrowly escaping the deadly rocks.
"Hmm?" King looked around. "It is useless to hide, Ray. Although your speed is much quicker, in front of absolute strength, you are nothing—"
"You talk too much." Ray punched with all his strength, using his speed to create momentum, landing it squarely on King\'s face.
This punch should have disfigured King, but to Ray\'s absolute astonishment, all it did was make King\'s head move slightly.
"This…"
For a moment, Ray was stunned.
"Die." King roared at him.
He moved his hand in a clawing motion again. However, Ray was only slightly affected. Then King hurriedly changed his target to the ground.
Ray felt a slight tremor beneath him.
When he looked down, he saw the surrounding ground start to crack. Suddenly, he was lifted off from the ground as it fractured and heaved beneath him.
"What should I do?" This thought flashed in Ray\'s mind again.
Taking King down in a short time seemed impossible.
Even if the fight dragged on, facing that terrifying meteor again would leave Ray helpless. However, the power of it was terrifying, but could King use it every time?
If he could, then he would have already used it and could even potentially destroy earth ith it.
Ray casually jumped and landed on the ground again.
"Ray, just die already." King uttered with fury, his hand forming a clawing motion again.
However, no matter what tricks King used, they were either tanked or dodged by Ray, rendering his skills useless for the moment.
All of Ray\'s stats—strength, speed, physique, and vitality—combined with Rejuvenation, were no joke.
Even if he sustained major injuries, Ray could still recover from it, not to mention that he could still damage King if he let down his guard.
King released two meteors again; however, this time Ray was close to King, and he could only helplessly detonate them in the distance.
Ray could survive the meteors, but that didn\'t mean King could.
After that, Ray punched him on the head, but to his absolute astonishment it didn\'t do much to King, whose defence was enhanced by a large margin with the Sage Form.
"I am running out of time," King thought nervously while feeling the mutation energy combined with Sage energy rapidly draining in him.
While King was distracted, Ray backed away and finally could use the Analyser skill to look at him again.
[Name- King]
[Status- Awakener (S-class)]
[Skill: Sage Art]
[Mutation energy: 587]
[Mutation energy currently in the body: 324]
[Sage energy currently in the body: 198]
Ray looked at the mutation energy in King\'s body with a sneer. It seemed like King was running out of mutation energy already, but Ray was even more attracted to the Sage Energy that was in the details.
This Sage energy should be the one King got after using the Sage Form. Even though at that time, time seemed to have stopped, it still was seen by him.
The numerical data of Sage Energy was constantly increasing and decreasing at the same time. However, the faster it flickered, the more mutation energy would be drained from King\'s body.
"King, give up. You can\'t win." Ray spoke lightly with a condescending tone.
King didn\'t speak, just moved his hand in the clawing motion, making Ray shake his head.
"Even if you have an S-class skill, you still can\'t defeat me." Ray moved fluidly with swiftness, effortlessly dodging all the rocks and soil thrown at him.
No matter what King threw, as long as Ray was determined, nothing could touch him.
Besides, even when Ray was hit, he would stand up like a tank. Even if King wanted to call a "small" meteor at him, Ray would stay close to King, completely making him unable to shoot.
Even if it kills Ray, King will probably die with him.
In front of his speed, King really didn\'t have any chance to counterattack at all.
Bang!
Ray punched his face again and again before King could react. King\'s face was already crushed; even seeing with his glowing blue eyes was hard.
"Ahhh–" King screamed in rage, an utter rage. "You must die today, Ray!"
He made a clawing move toward the ground, making it tremble as Ray escaped the range.
"I will kill you. No, I must kill you. Take my ultimate move—"
"It\'s time to end it," Ray spoke lightly, his eyes revealing a deep meaning.
King felt that Ray\'s eyes seemed familiar, as if he had seen them before. A sense of bad premonition erupted in his heart.
Croooaak!
King heard the loud roar and hurriedly clutched his ears but still couldn\'t escape it. It felt like his eardrums were going to burst.
Then he felt a terrifying force weighing on his back making him immediately fall to the ground.
King turned around with a look of horror. The giant raven\'s beak came into his vision.
However, the most terrifying thing was its strength, which could even press on him firmly, and the "2" mark on its head.
Even more terrifying was the darkness in its eyes that made him involuntary shudder, staring at him, as if it was the bane of all living.
"What is this?"
