Swallowing the Stars: Recruiting Apprentices and Getting Cash Back

Chapter 133 Victory

"There must be a weakness, the eyes are the weakness!" Skach thought frantically. As long as it is humanoid, the eyes are the weakness no matter what. One stab and it's certain to die.

Although the master told me not to kill it, it has come to this point, so I can't care about that anymore. Anyway, it doesn't matter if the clone is killed, it can still be resurrected.

brush!

Skach flashed into view of Pangu's clone, his golden blade aimed straight for the clone's right eye.

Pangu's clone seemed completely stunned, making no attempt to dodge, but instead a slight smile appeared on its lips.

He actually laughed?

Skach couldn't understand why Pangu's clone was laughing when it was about to die.

But then, he felt his body getting heavier and heavier, his eyelids drooping involuntarily, and his hands becoming weak and powerless, to the point that he could barely hold the knife.

"Soul attack! Don't sleep, don't sleep!" Skach quickly realized what was happening and hurriedly forced himself to stay awake.

It must be said that Skachi, having mined in the deepest part of the Blood Crystal Mine for ten thousand years and endured the impact of evil energy for ten thousand years, possessed an extremely strong mental will, which actually made him muster his spirits.

hum!

The sword hummed softly, emitting an even more dazzling golden light.

Bang!

Just as Skach was struggling to stay awake, Pangu's clone slapped him across the face, sending the recovered Skach flying.

Boom!

Skach fell straight onto the Temple of Immortality, smashing it into ruins.

My right cheek immediately swelled up like a pig's head.

"Ah, run!"

"The temple master got beaten up!"

"The world is ending!"

Everyone fled, while the guards who were watching the altar scattered and fled with the 18 statues of the Beast God. For the rest of their lives, they would protect the statues of the Beast God with their own lives.

As for helping the Temple Master, don't be ridiculous. They're just trash; even a small aftershock could kill them. Rushing in would only be suicide. They'd be better off escaping far away to avoid becoming a burden to the Temple Master and to ensure the continuation of the Immortal Temple's flame.

"Vice Temple Master, Vice Temple Master. The temple has been attacked by extraterrestrial demons. The Temple Master seems to be outmatched. We hope the Temple Master can come to our aid." Of course, some Realm Masters also sent SOS messages to Vice Temple Master Carlos, but Carlos simply deleted them and pretended not to see them.

At this moment, who else could be the extraterrestrial demon in the Immortal Temple? It must be my great master. How could I possibly be an enemy of my master?

"Skachi, stand up." Seeing that they were going to lose if things continued like this, the Lord of the Eclipse Palace forcibly ordered Skachi to stand up and attack again.

Pangu's clone didn't mind the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master intervening in the battle. Instead, he said directly, "Palace Master, you guessed right. My eyes are indeed my weakness."

The meaning of Pangu's clone is very clear: either you are fast enough to be faster than my soul attack, or your will becomes very strong in a short period of time, otherwise you cannot win.

But how many slaps can you, Skach, withstand from me?

Skach knew this perfectly well, but he had to obey his master's orders.

He soared into the sky, raised his sword, closed his eyes, and focused all his attention on stabbing at the right eye of Pangu's clone once again.

However, there is no soul attack that can be blocked by simply closing your eyes, especially since Pangu's clone's soul attack this time is even more powerful.

Ding!

Skach dropped his sword and nearly fell into the mud.

Bang!

This time it wasn't a slap, but a fist the size of a comet that came crashing down.

Skach was hammered into the ground like a nail, and then disappeared.

he died.

However, he revived in the distance the next second, but his body had lost a full 7%. Although this level of damage did not affect his strength, losing 7% with just one punch, how many more punches could he withstand?

His chances are running out.

After his rebirth, Skachi no longer rushed to make a move. Instead, he would occasionally flash from a distance to observe the other weaknesses of Pangu's clone, preventing Pangu's clone from detecting his location.

Pangu's clone naturally knew Skach's thoughts, but he was not afraid at all, because his eyes were indeed his only weakness, and even his lower body was not his weakness.

But Skach didn't know that he had chosen the nape of Pangu's neck to attack!

Ding!

The attack was successful, but Pangu's clone did not bleed a drop. Moreover, as the clone's neck writhed, the battle sword was stuck and could not be pulled out.

Snapped!

Pangu's clone swatted at Skach, the immortal king, like swatting a fly, flattening him with both hands as if he were a mosquito.

"Damn it!" Skach cursed under his breath. With that one strike, he lost 10% of his body, and the damage was getting higher and higher.

"No, I absolutely cannot lose! This concerns my master's reputation; I absolutely cannot lose!"

boom!

Skach unleashed his full divine power, transforming himself into a small golden figure and an incomparably sharp blade. Clearly, he was using some kind of secret technique that burned his divine body; he was going all out.

Whoosh!

Skach transformed into a blade and stabbed towards the left eye of Pangu's clone.

Pfft!

Because of his speed, Skach successfully pierced the eye of Pangu's clone this time.

"Master, I succeeded." Skach was overjoyed, finally having fulfilled his mission.

烽！

But before he could be happy for long, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and the temperature soared.

This isn't a left eye at all; it's the inside of a star—no, it's even hotter than a normal star.

At the same time, it was accompanied by spatial distortion and time disorder. It was said that a period of time had passed, but in reality, not even a moment had passed.

The divine body loses 1%, 5%, 6% — 30%. As the divine body loses more and more, Skachi's aura also declines. Peak Marquis, Ordinary Marquis, Peak Military Lord, Ordinary Immortal.

"Ah! Master, save me!" In desperation, even though Skach was unwilling, he could only beg the Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace for help.

Whoosh!

Pangu's clone naturally wouldn't kill Skachi directly. Before the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master could make a move, it shrunk its body and released Skachi from its left eye.

According to mythology, Pangu's left eye later transformed into the sun. And the sun in the primordial world was not just an ordinary star.

If we had to define a standard for Pangu's left eye, then it would be a supreme treasure of the sealing type mentioned in Swallowing the Starry Sky, although its power is currently limited.

The dense bloodshot veins covering his eyes weren't from staying up late, but from an injury. However, it was enough to suppress a mere minor king.

"Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace, I should consider myself to have won, right?" Pangu's clone said, looking at the Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace.

"You win. You can take the Blood Crystal Mine. I'll explain things to the company." The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace did not deny his defeat for the sake of saving face, but generously admitted that Pangu's clone had won.

"But Nuolanshan, what race is this clone of yours? It can't be as simple as a rock-type special life form, can it?" the Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace asked.

He was genuinely curious about the true identity of Pangu's clone. If a realm lord could defeat a king-level immortal, then even the most elite special life forms couldn't be more powerful.
