Chapter 861 A Battle To Save The World [2]

At his plan's utter failure, the Undead grew furious and increased his attack intensity on Varian.

His hands literally blurred as they moved at speeds far surpassing that of sound. Just the shockwaves from the flexing of his muscles were enough to kill a level 6!

Facing these attacks, Varian was forced to use all his powers.

Using his space, lightning, telekinetic and ice powers, he created a layered armor covering his body.

Then, he met a fist with a fist and a kick with a kick.

Due to the sheer shockwaves generated by these attacks, the mountains nearby were leveled, the forests were uprooted and the rivers were diverted.

Rather than moving to different locations, they confined the fight to a particular area.

As a result, every time a blow was exchanged, the ground cracked under the pressure, and craters formed.

Every exchange was like an explosion and these craters only widened. The once pristine land was now full of craters as if it had been messed up by earth awakeners.

As the battle continued, Varian raised his arms and blocked the punch of the Undead.

Like every other time, his skin split apart and blood spilled out while his muscles tore and bones ached.

Threads of dark energies transmitted from the Undead to him during their contact and these energies gathered around his wounds and started to hamper his regeneration.

Varian wanted to crush them using his vitality but after hearing the prompt, his lips curled up and he continued the brawl.

Grasping an opportunity, the Undead grabbed Varian by the feet and slammed him against the ground, creating a huge crater a mile wide!

Varian stopped counting the number of his broken bones and went back up.

With more confidence than ever, the Undead once again punched at Varian and just like the first official exchange between them, Varian punched back.

Seeing this, the Undead was overjoyed. "You couldn't block my punch when you were in perfect condition! Now, you're not only injured, but your injuries also aren't recovering while your vitality dwinles! Pay for your arrogance!"

The fists connected and like every other attack, a huge wind broke out from their point of contact, resembling a terrible storm.

The ground cracked apart and huge rocks flew into the air, as the ground under the two sunk a few feet!

But this time—

"H-How?!" The Undead looked at Varian with shock.

Varian who couldn't bear his attack even in his perfect condition and was blown away like a rag…the same Varian, but in a far worse state of injury and fatigue only staggered a few steps back!

The Undead's eyes jumped as he recalled the documents he previously read about Varian.

Even though they mentioned he grew extremely fast…this, what's this?

There was a substantial gap between the two when they started fighting. The kind of gap that would three years even for a genius to fill!

But this guy…What the fuck?!

"You monster!" The Undead's dead heart jumped as he realized why the Emperor paid such importance to this human.

"Monster? Huh," Varian twisted his neck and grinned. He was still weaker than the Undead but after repeating beatings, his body powers took a leap. With the superposition of other powers, he had almost caught up!

Closing the parity in minutes, perhaps this was a feat only he could achieve!

"Yes, what secret are you hiding? I'll dig it out from y—mff!" The Undead who was talking too much was forced to raise his arms and block Varian's punch.

But unfortunately, it was no longer a weak punch he could ignore. Despite blocking the punch successfully, the Undead staggered back and felt a long-lost sensation in his bones—pain!

This pest…how did he?

The Undead grew furious and the battle grew more intense.

But unlike before, Varian was no longer being thrown around. He fought head-to-head and despite being the weaker side, he paid back every attack.

The two disappeared and appeared over a hill before they punched each other. The force destroyed the hill completely and reduced it to rubble.

Unbothered, the Man and Undead continued their brawl. Taking another chance, the Undead clawed at Varian and tore a hole in his abdomen.

The sharp grey nails dripped in blood and savored the hot liquid flowing down them.

The Undead licked his nails and noticed the injuries on Varian's body. They were everywhere.

Shoulders, arms, chest, abdomen, back, legs—he was bleeding everywhere and there were strands of dark energy on all these wounds!

'It should be almost time.' The Undead smirked at Varian and said. "Do you feel it?"

"Huh? Yeah," Varian nodded and clenched his fist.

"Oh, you really fe—augh!" The Undead was forced to block a kick to his crotch at the last moment.

He staggered back and quickly readjusted himself as he stared at Varian in rage and disbelief. "How are you still fine? Aren't you feeling weak? Aren't your injuries still bleeding?"

Varian responded with a couple more punches, forcing the Undead to defend himself hastily as he sneered. "This is easy. You think I can't deal with that little energy? I just used it as a whetstone."

Saying so, Varian opened his right palm and showed the wound. A large patch of skin was missing and a piece of flesh was sunk while strands of dark energy lingered over the wound.

But with a snap, tremendous vitality surged into Varian's palm and started healing the injury. The dark energy was quickly captured and extinguished.

In just a few seconds, Varian's palm was restored!

"You! You!" The Undead had no words to utter.

What the fuck was this guy really?

Varian's smile only brightened at the Undead's aghast expression. His goal was in sight.

It's a pity that the System told him his wish of acquiring this death energy was impossible at the current stage.

Apparently, the other side wasn't using proper death energy but was just spreading it since he was an Undead.

That's the reason why despite being attacked by Death energy so many times, Varian got no notification of a new path.

With a swipe of his hand, Varian's injuries started healing and in a few seconds, he was back at his peak condition.

Smiling at the Undead, he muttered. "Let's get this over with."
