Chapter 116 - 113

Rhash can only roll his eyes. The perverted bastard really has a glib tongue. His words were too flowery

If this was not Reif that we are talking about, Rhash might have smashed the face of such a conceited bastard

Even then, those words still sent a warm current into Rhash's heart and he could only 'hmph' in return

It took a while before Rhash decided that they should continue. His mana and strength was already fully recovered and their mind was also in a battle state now

The two continue to traverse the area that was full of tombstones. It occupies a large area and even with their quick speed, it still took some time before the scenery changes

The two stop in their tracks after seeing a large and tall tower. The aura of death in this area was many times stronger compared to other areas

Normal people would have their lifeforce eaten away in a matter of seconds as soon as they enter this area

The nerves of the two became tenser as they anticipated a desperate battle as they enter the castle through the door

After they arrived inside, the scenery instantly changes. The place they entered doesn't look like a place inside a castle

Not only was it very spacious enough to host thousands of people, it also has a red formation in the ground

The formation emits a strange yet powerful aura of death. It looks so deadly as if entering this place was a forbidden thing

However, the real danger doesn't come from the magic formation. It came from the people inside it

Around five thousand clones of number 1 can be seen staring at Rhash and Reif coldly. Their eyes were filled with the desire to kill. The aura they releases was very dangerous

If it was only number 1, defeating him was as simple as slaughtering a chicken if Rhash and Reif joined hands

However, he was not the only enemy here. In the middle of the formation, a humanoid figure obstructed with mist can be seen

His features cannot be clearly seen because of the mist but one look was enough for one to know that he was a dangerous man

Finally, after battling numerous enemies, Reif and Rhash has arrived at the 'boss room'

"Ready yourself" Rhash said seriously as blood fire burned from his fist

"Who would have thought that someone that has the potential to be my vessel in the past would come here. Is it my death that you desire? Unfortunately, that is not an easy thing to achieve"

Salamander's eerie voice rang around. Even just his voice was already powerful enough to shake one's soul

That wasn't a surprise though. After all, it was Salamander's existence that made it possible for Mesha City to become a free city without any influence from the Imperial Family

That was how powerful he was! It was to the point that the previous strongest power in the world dared not to touch him

Now that he was seeing Salamander, Reif can't help but feel like this world is really similar to a novel, albeit a poorly written one

It's like all the highlights were given to Nath. Although there is a Royal Family in this world, Reif almost cannot feel them

It was like they were only there for the plot. They made this world feel like a broken novel world

As a Royal Family that lorded the world prior to the church's emergence, how can they have so little of a presence?

"If I want your death, trust me that I could bestow that to you. But if you don't want to die, hand over the shard of brilliance" Reif said coldly as a gravity field spreads with him as the center

The heavy gravity only affected Number 1 and Salamander though as they are the only enemies of Reif

"Heh... what arrogant words. You actually want to kill an immortal that possesses the shard of death? Do you know how many thousands of years that I lived through?" Salamander said with a sneer

He thought that Reif is an arrogant bastard that doesn't know anything, not knowing that he is very familiar with him

After all, Reif inherited the memories of his predecessors. That of course included memories regarding Salamander, the immortal that is like a cockroach

If the shard of life and healing can help a person recover from their injuries and also supply them with a strong vitality, the shard of death on the other hand can almost make a person a real immortal

The troll that has the shard of life can barely use it but although Salamander doesn't have 100% mastery of the shard of death, he still can use it to a large extent

He could literally evade death. He was like a master that controlled death and he could prevent himself from receiving death

There was no easy way to describe it but one thing is for sure, Salamander is almost unkillable

"Too arrogant. Very well, with his special you are, I could use your body as my next vessel, granting me freedom!"

Freedom! That is the thing that Salamander wants right now. He could jot exit this place that has the special magic formation as it would spell his death

Without a proper vessel, Salamander is doomed to stay here for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, not just anyone could become his vessel. The body must be strong, talented, and powerful enough

No matter what, Salamander is not a real immortal. His body would still decay and die but with the help of the shard of death, he could evade a real death

"If you won't hand over the shard to me, die!" Reif said in a deadly manner and his figure instantly disappeared from his previous location

He reappeared on top of Salamander with his foot ready to give him a solid kick. With the help of gravitational pull, Reif's kick was a very heavy one and also extremely fast

Getting hit by him was almost a death sentence. Unfortunately, his enemy this time is not a nobody

The mist blurring Salamander's feature cleared up and his appearance could now be seen

He has a humanoid body but there was also fiery red scales all over his body and face

He doesn't look old contrary to his age but he gave off an ancient aura as if he lived through countless eras already

His arm has those fiery red scales that were thicker and more numerous when it comes to his hands that were more of a claw

His nails were long and sharp as if they could tear through everything in this world

Without the slightest bit of fear, Salamander met Reif's kick head-on with his fist

Bang!

A loud banging sound rang around and a terrifying shockwave has spread. The shockwave even knocked away the surrounding clones of number 1

"Outside the formation, my spirit would die. But in here, my spirit could materialize and I can almost use my full power" Salamander commented with a sneer before opening his mouth wide

Without a warning, a fire that seems to have the ability to burn everything in this world came out from Salamander's mouth

The fire was so intense that even space seems to have been fried by him. The surrounding temperature instantly rises

The surrounding was even much hotter compared to being near an active volcano

This fire was no ordinary fire as even Reif could not treat that fire as a joke

As a result, Reif seems to have teleported as he appeared behind Salamander. In his palm, a crimson rotating ball of energy can be seen and he tried to use it against Salamander

The undying man was really not a joke though. With quick reflexes, he turned his body and met Reif's crimson ball with a fireball in his palm

The two sets of energies collided with each other causing a loud and apocalyptic explosion

The whole space was dyed with fire red and crimson light. Intense shockwaves continuously traveled in the air as if they would shatter space itself

The explosion still hasn't died down yet the people that caused them already clashed again

Both Reif and Salamander's figure can be seen flickering here and there. They would vanish from one location just to reappear to another location

Their speed was too fast for people's eyes to see them. Every collision would also result in a shockwave that harmed everything around them

Their clash also resulted in either crimson explosion or a burst of terrifying fire. Just being near them was already more than enough to earn a person their death

Their power was simply too horrible. It's not something that normal people could have

People at their level were too few in this world. They have so much mana and power as if they robbed other people of their power

Words were not enough to describe how apocalyptic this battle was. Few people could actually survive even just the resulting aftershocks
