His body was beginning to fall apart under the onslaught of the dragon’s Claws. His flesh had been mashed into a gory mess, his bones crushed, and even his organs were falling out… Yet the dragon phantom was becoming weaker with every passing second, its attacks seemingly more feeble as if it were going further away.
There was a large pool of blood on the ground now, mixed with small pieces of flesh. It was simply a horrifying sight.
The phantom was actually ripping his skin off. It wasn’t just an illusion.
After that, several other demons rushed over and started tearing Alex’s flesh off as well, just like how the dragon demon did. They also tried to hypnotize him to take over his body.
With this, more blood and flesh poured to the ground.
Alex, however, confirmed to chant the incantation as he completely ignored the demons. It was as if they weren’t harming his body at all, as if the blood and flesh weren’t his, to begin with.
The average person would’ve been dead long after losing this much blood, yet Alex was still alive. His flesh and bones kept growing back despite being clawed out as though his body could regenerate. It looked as if he was being reborn.
The worst part was when demonic energy started consuming his mind. That was the base of one’s life and soul, so nothing should ever happen to it. However, the energy within the Blue Demonic Lotus was just too strong. The Green Genesis Lotus’ twin was considered a solid divine object.
The Green Genesis Lotus was one of the top three Chaos treasures, hence it had as much power as the Heavenly Axe and the Jade Disc of Fortune. It was the most powerful one of the three at the time.
The Blue Demonic Lotus, on the other hand, was just as strong as his twin.
The problem was…
Back then, when these two lotuses were still growing, there was a polarization in their powers. The Green Genesis Lotus absorbed lots of positive energy, while the negatives inserted into its twin.
That meant that the Green Genesis Lotus treated its twin like a trash bin, merely because it was the strongest of the two. Hence, it took all the goods and left everything bad to the other twin.
With time, the differences between the two lotuses became greater. The Genesis Lotus grew magnificently.
On the other hand, its twin was also one of the precious Chaos treasures. It wasn’t going to be willingly destroyed just like that, it developed a mind of its own, cut all ties with the Genesis Lotus, and entered another void…
Thud!
The two forces crashed into one another, and right at that moment, Alex felt like he was losing his mind. Such a high level of energy collision wasn’t what Alex’s will and mentality could handle. He even suspected that his brain would soon be damaged, and he’d be in a vegetative state.
Just then, Shelly took action. She used her own Chi to force out a snow-white head from her body and stuck it between Alex’s brows.
“Huh..?”
“Shelly, what are you doing? That’s your Starbound bead. Without it, your place as Starlord… ” Ancestor Bodhi yelled out as his eyes widened in disbelief.
Shelly looked calm. “Siddhartha realm keeps getting smaller at the moment. This guy is the realm’s last hope. I can only risk everything right now. It doesn’t matter if he gets my head. Bodhi, don’t you be stingy either. Take nine of Bodhi’s hearts out.”
“What? Nine? You’re asking for my life!”
