Chapter 578: Three Choices

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Under God Undercurrent’s strict control, the black liquid flowed recklessly over the bodies of the five supreme transcending experts before slowly converging on the way back to his body. In the timeframe of two breaths, God Undercurrent transformed into a ten meter high black liquid monster.

As for the five transcending experts who were at their last breath, God Undercurrent wasn’t anxious to obliterate them. After all, once he seized Li Yunmu’s body, it wouldn’t take long for him to recover his full strength!

All the sages and quasi deities of Earth did not hesitate. They rushed to those who were still showing signs of life and, one after another, opened spatial tunnels to return to Earth.

The experts of the allied army didn’t ponder over whether Li Yunmu would achieve victory or not. After all, God Undercurrent was tyrannical to the point that he had defeated the five supreme transcending experts in a flash. Everyone had to admit that Li Yunmu’s previous display was quite conspicuous, but with the present circumstances, Earth’s fluxers didn’t believe that he could win.

After all, even if Li Yunmu was powerful, he could at most be on the level of supreme transcending experts and no more. If Battle God attacked with full strength, Li Yunmu might not be able to resist him, so what to speak of God Undercurrent who was even more powerful?

Li Yunmu’s eyes, which seemed to glimmer with a red shadow from the negative emotions in his heart, raised his cyan longbow and pulled on it. Instantly, nine black-red thunder fiend soul hunting arrows were congealed!

Although Li Yunmu didn’t feel anything good toward the allied army escaping from the battlefield, he also didn’t feel disappointed.

Even he himself didn’t believe that he had a good chance to win, so what could be expected from people who didn’t know his strength.

After becoming stronger due to absorbing the fiendish energy, Li Yunmu was confident that he could fight any one of the supreme transcending experts, but nothing more than that.

[Ding! The descent of an irresistible power detected, asking host to escape quickly!] the system stated in a cold voice.

When God Undercurrent focused his attention on Li Yunmu, the system had began to analyze the combat strength of both sides.

“Apart from escaping, do I have any other options?”

Li Yunmu lightly raised his brows, indicating that if his domineering attitude of advancing courageously was broken here, it would influence his future cultivation.

[There is, but the price is too great.]

The system’s calm voice caused Li Yunmu’s thoughts to jump. He almost began cursing.

As the system’s intelligence increased, its viciousness had also increased, especially now that Li Yunmu possessed a certain amount of strength. It would only refue him if they encountered an enemy whom he couldn’t rival.

[One of the choices in front of the host is to sacrifice all experience points and increase the number of shadows from eighteen to twenty three. After this, when God Undercurrent closes upon you, you can unleash Unique Shadow Heavenly Blade Chop. This one strike would be enough to make the opponent lose all reason and decrease their strength by 80%.]

As soon as the system explained the first choice, Li Yunmu threw it away.

Although the harvest obtained from absorbing the fiendish energy far surpassed his imagination and allowed him to congeal five more shadows, shadows weren’t only the means to increase his strength. He could rely upon them to defend his life. If he chose to sacrifice his shadows and had to use Ghostly Image Substitution, wasn’t it the same as fleeing?

[The second choice, host can sacrifice Azure Dragon Expert Armor. The system can substitute for host and obliterate God Undercurrent from existence in one attack. However, if you sacrifice Azure Dragon Expert Armor, it will be gone for all time.]

The second choice moved Li Yunmu’s heart slightly, but he still didn’t open his mouth. After all, the strength amplification of Azure Dragon Expert Armor was something which he had to possess. If he sacrificed it, he might escape the calamity, but he would certainly regret it in the future!

“Isn’t there a third choice?” he asked quickly.

[There is.} The system gave a positive reply, then continued, [But I don’t think you have time to hear it out.]

The instant the system said that, God Undercurrent appeared in front of him. Li Yunmu even had to raise his head because of the other’s enormous body.

Which one? Option two or one?

If Li Yunmu really only had only the two choices, then he would rather pick the first. Although he would have to sacrifice all his shadows, he could gather enough experience points and congeal them again in the future, couldn’t he?

“System, gather all shadows and unleash Unique Shadow...”

Before he could finish speaking, he felt as if something exploded in his head, like an artillery shell had hit it. In a flash, Li Yunmu lost consciousness.

“Ha ha! Ha ha ha!”

Seeing Li Yunmu lose consciousness, God Undercurrent opened his mouth, which was submerged in the black liquid, and began to laugh savagely.

He couldn’t help but celebrate his decision to seize Li Yunmu’s body. Although the youth could expel his divine power, he was convinced that it was not without a price. If Li yunmu could use that method without any limits, Ling Shuang would probably have already broken out of his control.

Therefore, he dared to take the risk of allowing Li Yunmu to consume fiendish energy. He had also waited until he had absorbed to saturation, knowing that his flesh would naturally transform again.

At that time, God Undercurrent attracted a large amount of power of the spell, which allowed him to instantly reach his peak power and kill the five supreme transcending experts in one stroke, completely exterminating any ability of the allied forces to fight him!

After Earth’s allied army retired or was exterminated, he would seize Li Yunmu’s body and allow the backlash from his power to devour Barbarian Niu’s body!

It has to be said that this was an extremely bold and perfect plan. However, during it, God Undercurrent sustained a lot of horrifying pain and damage.

But for God Undercurrent, as long as he could obtain Li Yunmu’s body, all the pain and sacrifice in the world would be worth it!

Even if he couldn’t recover to his peak strength for the time being, who would know that he had seized Li Yunmu’s body? Once it was over, he could return to Earth under Li Yunmu’s name and say that God Undercurrent was unable to resist the backlash and had died before the battle was finished.

With such a story established, he could obtain enormous treasures during the heavenly transformation with the assistance of the powerhouses of Earth. The mere thought of it made God Undercurrent’s blood boil!

But regardless of how many plans he had made, he never expected that Li Yunmu’s great treasure wasn’t the least bit inferior to the spell from the cultivation civilization before the Dark Ages that he had received!
