chapter 734 eager to die
swoosh! noÌv(el)b\\jnn
the moment he threw the black marble toward him, max could feel a very powerful and violent energy emit from it, on the same level as the high-stage five star realm, and his brows furrowed tightly.
'what a pity!' he sighed and waved his hand, causing his bloodline energy to surge out, which covered the black marble right before it exploded.
boom!
the five star ashen demon was about to rush over and save his nephew while max tried to defend himself, but his eyes widened when the ashen bead exploded... doing no damage but producing a muffled boom.
swoosh!
bang!
max had slowed just a bit, and by the time the ashen bead exploded, he had arrived in front of the last four star demon, who looked at him in horror, and threw a punch at his head, causing it to explode.
max then turned to the stunned five star ashen demon, ready to chase after him when he sensed several high-stage and a few peak five star demons rushing in his direction and sighed.
the moment he used his bloodline energy to defend against the ashen bead, he already knew the demons would recognize him and he wouldn't be able to properly test his physical limits. unfortunately, he had no choice but to use it because even though his mana had become stronger than before, it was still well within the four star realm and wouldn't have been enough to stop the explosion.
the ashen demon glared at him with fury burning in his eyes, but max could see relief deep within, which made him curl his lips.
"you think you are safe now?" as he said this, crimson-pink wings of fire appeared behind him with a whoosh and then gently flapped.
swoosh!
immediately, he disappeared and appeared in front of the demon, his handâcovered with the mixture of his bloodline energy and fire elemental manaâgrabbing toward his neck.
it took the demons just less than three seconds to arrive near him, but this short time was enough for max's flames to burn his skin, muscles, and brain into ashes. even its skull seemed as though it was about to disintegrate.
swoosh!
however, right then an ashen bead was thrown at him, which made him let go of the demon and retreat.
boom!
the ashen bead exploded and turned the demon's corpse and everything that was in its vicinity for more than ten meters into ashes while the produced shockwaves sent the five star demons tumbling backwards.
"what the fuck was that, you burnt corpse!" a peak abyssal howler shouted in rage at the high-stage five star ashen fiend who had thrown that bead just now.
the ashen fiend, however, ignored him, his and others from his tribe's furious gazes fixed on max, who was staring back at them with a teasing smirk on his ugly face.
"wiping out the traces of their shame." a high-stage five star frostclaw female demon commented, chuckling lightly.
the ashen fiend tribe prided itself on its superior fire affinity. they even had a chant they would proudly say, 'we rule the flames, and there is nothing we can't burn into ashes.' so, seeing one of their own dying from the fire was a subject of shame, which they couldn't allow to exist.
as soon as this frostclaw demon said this, every ashen fiend glared at her, killing intent flashing in their eyes.
the frostclaw demons returned their gaze, completely unbothered. in fact, they looked at them with provocative expressions on their faces.
perhaps because they both ruled opposite elements or maybe due to some other reason, both tribes had been enemies and would fight at the slightest disagreement. even in the demon city, they had many clashes.
seeing this, the two peak five star abyssal howlers' eyes flashed with delight, and they rushed toward max.
swoosh! swoosh!
as max watched them rush over, he calmly took out the thunder sword.
"eager to die, aren't you?"
