The furious Yatokus used ancient dark magic to turn his temporary body into something even more terrifying. He crushed Li Ke's neck in an instant.
"You seem to know a lot of things, but what you don't know is that people who know a lot of things often die!"
Yatokus, who could no longer suppress his emotions because of this name, would never think that he could be free forever. So he slammed Li Ke to the ground like he was throwing garbage. Judging from the power he used, if Li Ke, who was seriously disturbed by Yatokus's mind and memory, was smashed to the ground, no matter how tough Li Ke's body was, his head would definitely explode into a blooming flower when it came into contact with the stone ground.
However, this killing move was disrupted by another human!
Just as Li Ke opened his eyes and looked at the ground that was getting closer and closer, a figure quickly rushed over, using his own body as a buffer. Li Ke didn't fall directly to the ground, but smashed into the figure instead. Although it didn't feel good to smash into the armour, Li Ke's head was preserved and didn't turn into a blooming flower of flesh and blood. This allowed him to use the power from Yatokus to begin rebuilding his body and the broken bones under this blow.
But when he could barely stand up and saw the person who was seriously injured by him and couldn't get up, he was a little surprised.
"Sejuani?"
Sejuani spat out a mouthful of blood and turned her head away. She didn't look into the man's eyes and said something that sounded like an excuse.
"If it doesn't die, cough … we will die too."
After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes. Li Ke touched her chest. In addition to receiving a dissatisfied look, he also probed her condition. Her spine was broken, some of her internal organs were ruptured, and a few ribs pierced her lungs. Without hesitation, Li Ke injected his remaining vitality into Sejuani's body to save her life. After she fainted, he stood up. He turned his head to look at Yatokus, who had landed on the ground and was looking at him quietly.
After throwing Li Ke to the ground, Yatokus originally planned to kill and restore his body in this rare place with so many people. But just as he was about to do so, he saw something different in Li Ke's body. It wasn't just vitality, but something else that he was very familiar with. It still existed in his body even now. It was just that it had become something distant and unfamiliar.
Li Ke also noticed it. When he clenched his fist and used Yatokus's power to reshape his body to prepare for the final fight, he found that his right arm, which grew under Yatokus's power, had begun to twist. And …
It shone as brightly as the stars!
In the process of growing, the right arm that he lost was no longer in human form, but in another form!
Green, white, and golden light shone on his new arm. As Yatokus' power flowed, his arm also showed a dreamy golden colour. And in the process of growing, Yatokus' power spontaneously formed something that looked like an armour. It looked like a carapace, but it was definitely not. It was something purer. The moment the armour on his right arm took shape, Li Ke even saw a little bit of starlight, as well as a warm feeling like the sun!
This …
Yatokus's memories began to flow. He found that this was the appearance of Yatokus's arm before he was infected by the power of the Void! It was the appearance of his untainted Ascended body! And this new arm of his was exactly the same except for the difference in size from Yatokus's ascended body!
"… This is incredible."
Yatokus looked at the familiar and distant scene. He saw his power in this young man's body, displaying his most glorious appearance from ancient times. His fury boiled even more because of this, but his consciousness and spirit calmed down because of this incredible discovery.
He looked at his ugly body, which was just an imitation of his past glory. After a few hours of movement, rotten and smelly pieces of flesh would keep falling off his body, while this was just a slightly bigger cage. He looked at Li Ke's right arm shining with starlight again and felt a sense of inferiority, as well as an unbearable shame.
He had already fallen to this point, but a thief still had to use the power stolen from him to show off his past glory.
Is this a mockery of fate? Or is it a humiliation from the so-called gods of the Astral Plane? Isn't it enough to imprison me in this cage of eternal darkness? Must they humiliate me and make me sink into oblivion in order to show their superiority?
Ha …
At this moment, Yatokus wanted to tear Li Ke to shreds, smash him to pieces, and then use the flames of the earth's core to burn his soul to ashes, then throw him into the deepest abyss of this world. But his desire stopped him. The desire to restore his glorious body, the desire to die, the desire to obtain a stronger body, and the desire to take revenge on the so-called Star Elves and the so-called gods made him abandon his anger at being humiliated. Instead, he brandished his sword and rushed towards Li Ke.
"You have obtained my power, but take a look! See if you will be swallowed by it! "
He launched the worst attack he had ever launched in his life at Li Ke. In order to deal with it, Li Ke gathered Yatokus' peaceful power full of order in his hand and manipulated it to form a big sword condensed from starlight. When the two figures, one big and one small, crossed paths, Yatokus' sword suddenly bypassed Li Ke 'sword, allowing the starlight sword to pierce through his sword-wielding arm. He wanted to stab his sword into Li Ke's body again.
The moment he stabbed Li Ke's body again, a huge dark consciousness attacked Li Ke and formed a dark figure in his consciousness space, trying to take over his body. Although the body he condensed in front of Li Ke collapsed under the power of gravity, the power that had not yet decayed kept gathering in Li Ke's body. Li Ke instinctively began to absorb his power, wanting to use Yatokus' power to deal with him!
But something unexpected happened. Li Ke's arm, which was originally shining with a pure and holy green color, and his holy ascendant body, started to be stained with a red and ominous aura when Yatokus' consciousness was about to devour Li Ke. This change made Yatokus stop. He knew that this was because Li Ke's ascendant body was still too weak to resist his erosion, so he did not attack Li Ke's precarious consciousness again. Instead, he stopped attacking Li Ke's consciousness. Other than deeply embedding his power in Li Ke's body to prevent him from abandoning himself, Yatokus did not attack Li Ke's consciousness again.
After all, what he wanted was a body shining with the original light, not a clumsy imitation.
But after Li Ke regained control of his body, he found that all kinds of dark thoughts involuntarily appeared in his heart due to the oppression of Yatokus' huge soul. When he struggled to help the unconscious Aichy up, he could not help but grab Aichy's throat because of Yatokus' whispering in his heart. He finally realized a sad fact.
He had to leave this place and leave Freldrod. Otherwise, unless he fought against Yatokus' consciousness without rest, he would eventually kill Aichy with his own hands one day, the woman who was supposed to form a family with him.
How sad. He had just started a new life, but he had to leave this place due to an unavoidable reason. He had to leave this woman who enthusiastically accepted him and gave him a home in this world. His fate in this world seemed to have been set. He had to keep fighting, and Aichy was just a mistake that should not have happened because he longed for an ordinary life …
"… Li Ke?"
Just as Li Ke was about to leave, Aichy, who was in his arms, suddenly grabbed Li Ke's right hand. When the spikes controlled by Yatokus pierced her palm, she called out Li Ke's name in her unconscious state.
Li Ke was silent. He carefully put Aichy down and shook his head at Cerna, who rushed over, and Oudir, who was shaking his head and sighing. Then, he placed Aichy in Cerna's arms and took away the bag full of wheat from her waist.
"Sir Li Ke?"
Cerna saw Li Ke's intention to leave, so she subconsciously took two steps forward, wanting to leave with Li Ke, but Li Ke stopped her.
"Don't follow me, Cerna. Help me take care of Aichy, and …"
As he spoke, he walked out, and the path he passed was filled with ears of ripened wheat because of him.
"Wait for me to come back."
