    Chapter 180

    Su Hao glanced at the countless faint claw shadows surrounding him and immediately became vigilant.

    His Black Crystal Armor expanded and thickened, reinforcing itself for defense.

    From what he could tell...

    This ability resembled Blood Assimilation.

    By dispersing blood and cells into the surrounding air, All-Seeing had transformed the very atmosphere into an extension of his own body.


    ---

    Swish!

    Su Hao swung his long blade.

    Most of the claw shadows were shattered instantly.

    However...

    Several still slipped through.

    Clang!

    His Second-Tier Barrier shattered immediately.

    Three deep claw marks were carved into the surface of his Black Crystal Armor.

    Without hesitation, Su Hao burst backward, leaving the claw-filled airspace.


    ---

    "Those claws..."

    "They can tear through my Barrier so easily?"

    He glanced toward All-Seeing, who was already pursuing him.

    At the same time...

    He quietly prepared a massive Fire Dragon Rune.

    This time...

    He intended to burn off that smooth black fur once and for all.


    ---

    Simultaneously...

    He activated another rune.

    Air Conversion.

    Large quantities of Black Sand poured into the sky.

    Within moments...

    Almost the entire battlefield had been covered.


    ---

    "If you can assimilate the air..."

    "So can I."


    ---

    Seeing the entire sky suddenly fill with black sand...

    Even All-Seeing hesitated.

    It was at that exact moment—

    Su Hao turned around.

    Second-Tier Fire Dragon!

    ROAR!

    A blazing Fire Dragon over a hundred meters long erupted across the sky.

    Its enormous body twisted through the air like a living creature.

    Before All-Seeing could react...

    He was swallowed whole by the flames.


    ---

    "AAAAAH!!"

    A miserable scream echoed through the sky.

    A burning figure burst out from the sea of flames and fled into the distance.

    While flying...

    All-Seeing desperately tried to extinguish the fire consuming his body.


    ---

    By the time the flames were finally put out...

    It was already too late.

    Every strand of his long black fur had been burned away.

    His true appearance was completely exposed.

    Smoke still rose from his body.


    ---

    Su Hao widened his eyes.

    "A flying serpent?"

    He immediately corrected himself.

    "...No."

    "A dragon?"

    But...

    Not quite.


    ---

    All-Seeing possessed a long, slender body resembling a serpent.

    His arms and legs were connected by wide wing membranes.

    A long tail extended behind him.

    His overall shape resembled a bizarre fusion between a flying lizard and a giant ray.

    If Su Hao hadn't burned away the fur...

    He never would have discovered All-Seeing's true appearance.


    ---

    Compared to his own majestic Black Crystal Armor...

    There wasn't even a comparison.


    ---

    All-Seeing noticed Su Hao's gaze.

    His face immediately darkened.

    Embarrassed and furious...

    He quickly flew farther away.

    Mid-flight...

    He reverted to human form.

    Moments later...

    His body transformed once again.

    Fresh black fur rapidly grew back across his body.

    Within seconds...

    He had returned to his original appearance.


    ---

    Seeing his opponent attempting to escape...

    Su Hao smiled.

    "This sky..."

    "...is my domain."


    ---

    The countless grains of Black Sand filling the sky immediately gathered together.

    One Rune Array after another appeared.

    Thousands of black circular runes spread across the heavens.

    This...

    Was a Rune Array created specifically for dealing with swift and elusive opponents.

    Thunder Domain.


    ---

    The entire sky within a radius of nearly two thousand meters became its territory.

    No matter how fast All-Seeing was...

    He couldn't instantly escape.


    ---

    Su Hao almost wanted to shout dramatically,

    "Roar!"

    "Thunder!"


    ---

    The Rune Arrays activated simultaneously.

    CRACK—!!

    Lightning exploded throughout the sky.

    At first...

    Only a single thunderclap sounded.

    Then...

    Countless bolts connected into one continuous storm.

    Lightning spread like an enormous web.

    Thunder roared endlessly.

    The deafening sound echoed across Huiyang City.


    ---

    Everyone below instinctively looked up.

    They saw...

    A gigantic web of lightning stretching across the sky.

    Within it...

    Two tiny black figures battled fiercely.


    ---

    "It's All-Seeing!"

    "Who's the other one?"

    "I can't tell!"


    ---

    Soon...

    The entire city knew.

    Two terrifying Mutants were fighting in the heavens.


    ---

    Few had ever witnessed such an astonishing battle.

    People abandoned whatever they were doing.

    One after another...

    They found open spaces and watched excitedly.

    It was like witnessing the world's greatest spectacle.


    ---

    High above...

    The lightning web completely enveloped All-Seeing.

    Bolt after bolt struck his body.

    His muscles spasmed uncontrollably.

    Unable to move...

    He began falling toward the ground.


    ---

    Su Hao immediately closed in.

    Long blade ready.

    All-Seeing could only watch helplessly.

    His body refused to obey him.

    More lightning continued striking from every direction.

    He couldn't even resist.


    ---

    Fire Dragon!

    Another torrent of flames swept across his body.

    Every remaining strand of regenerated fur burned away again.

    His true form was exposed once more.


    ---

    Without hesitation...

    Su Hao thrust his blade forward.

    Puchi!

    The long blade pierced straight through All-Seeing's body.


    ---

    Hooked Sting!

    Instantly...

    Numerous hooked spikes burst outward from the blade.

    They tore through flesh...

    Leaving trails of blood.

    Some hooks extended farther still.

    They wrapped tightly around All-Seeing's body.

    Layer after layer.

    Until he was completely restrained.

    Like a tightly wrapped mummy.


    ---

    Looking at his handiwork...

    Su Hao nodded in satisfaction.

    "Now..."

    "You won't be running anywhere."


    ---

    He dispersed the Thunder Domain.

    Dragging the completely immobilized All-Seeing behind him...

    He flew away from Huiyang City.


    ---

    ...


    ---

    After both figures disappeared...

    The city below immediately erupted into chaos.


    ---

    "Why did they stop?"

    "It was getting exciting!"

    "I wanted to see more lightning!"

    "And more fire!"


    ---

    "Didn't you notice?"

    "One of them already lost."


    ---

    "Lost?"

    "I couldn't tell."


    ---

    "Are you blind?"

    "The tall skinny one was captured!"


    ---

    "The tall skinny one..."

    "Could that have been... All-Seeing?"


    ---

    The moment someone voiced that possibility...

    Silence spread through the crowd.

    Everyone inhaled sharply.

    Only one thought remained.


    ---

    All-Seeing...

    ...had been captured.


    ---

    Su Hao eventually landed in a deserted rocky valley.

    He casually threw the tightly bound All-Seeing onto the ground.

    Then spoke calmly,

    "I'll ask the questions."

    "You answer honestly."

    "If you cooperate..."

    "I'll consider letting you live."


    ---

    Although skewered in countless places...

    All-Seeing remained mentally alert.

    None of the wounds were fatal.

    He simply couldn't move.

    His life was entirely in Su Hao's hands.


    ---

    This...

    Was the first time the Seventh-Tier All-Seeing of the Nightwalker Folk had ever been reduced to such a state.

    He merely snorted coldly.

    Without saying a word.


    ---

    Su Hao didn't mind.

    He had already given the man a chance.

    Whether he answered or not...

    Made little difference.

    If this one refused to talk...

    Someone else eventually would.


    ---

    Truthfully...

    Su Hao had never liked people who attacked first and talked later.

    If someone behaved politely...

    He was willing to converse before fighting.

    Of course...

    The ending usually remained the same.

    Only the order changed.


    ---

    Su Hao asked calmly,

    "You're the Seventh-Tier All-Seeing of the Nightwalker Folk."

    "So..."

    "First question."

    "Who are the other three Seventh-Tier Mutants in Huiyang City?"


    ---

    All-Seeing simply closed his eyes.

    He remained silent.


    ---

    His will had long since become unshakable.

    He knew perfectly well...

    Su Hao would never truly release him.

    If death was inevitable...

    Why bother speaking?

    At the very least...

    Remaining silent could inconvenience his enemy.

    That alone would count as a small victory.


    ---

    His only regret...

    Was today's recklessness.

    Without understanding his opponent's abilities...

    He had attacked too confidently.

    Failure was only natural.


    ---

    After reaching the Seventh Tier...

    He no longer feared death.

    He had already stood at the peak of this world.

    There were no regrets.


    ---

    Perhaps...

    Years of invincibility had caused him to lose his caution.

    To lose the reverence one should always have toward the unknown.


    ---

    He sighed inwardly.


    ---

    What he didn't know...

    Was that if he had cooperated...

    Su Hao genuinely might have spared him.

    Unfortunately...

    His pride would never allow him to entrust his life to another person's mercy.

    He had always relied only upon himself.

    Even now...

    That hadn't changed.


    ---

    Without another word...

    Su Hao created another long blade.

    He slowly walked forward.

    Since the other party refused to answer...

    There was no point wasting time.


    ---

    At that instant...

    Countless shadowy claw images suddenly appeared behind All-Seeing.

    They lunged toward Su Hao.

    A final desperate struggle.


    ---

    A flash of steel.

    Slash!

    All-Seeing's head flew into the air.


    ---

    Dead.


    ---

    A fatal wound to the neck was still fatal.

    Not everyone possessed the terrifying regenerative abilities of an Earth Lord.
