I Cultivate 10,000 Times Faster

Hera gasped in relief

Suddenly, —"Bzzzzzzt!"

Luna's eyes suddenly glowed an intense golden color as two beams of energy shot out from her eyes

The instant it struck the cracked barrier, it pierced through it as though it was made of paper and pierced directly through Hera's pupils!

"AGGHHH—"

Her scream cut off instantly!

The beams pierced through her eyeballs, and directly into her brain, frying it from inside out. !

The smell of cooking flesh filled the air!

Steam erupted from her eye sockets as her brain was cooked.

Hera's body went rigid, her hands froze in midair. Her mouth was wide open as though she wanted to scream.

Then she collapsed to the ground.

The entire battle had taken less than a second.

-----

"HERA!!!"

The male cultivator's roar shook the entire cave!

His eyes went bloodshot, veins bulging across his face and neck. His Astra energy exploded outward as porridge, pure rage filled his entire body

"YOU MUST DIE!!!"

Levi had activated Star Annihilation five times already, each strike bringing him closer to killing the man. The cultivator's energy was depleting and his reaction speed was slowing down.

One or two more strikes and he would surely die under his blade.

But when the man saw his partner die, he didn't care about his life anymore and activated a secret technique.

THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!

The massive heart above them began pounding violently!

It swelled like a balloon as it lit up with energy.

"BOOM!"

The heart exploded!

Blood erupted in every direction, spraying across the entire cave as it suddenly paused as though alive and then surged into the dark cultivator's body!

Suddenly, the dark Cultivator's body started to change as his muscles expanded. His bones cracked as it expanded.

His face elongated, his jaw jutting forward. Horns began sprouting from his temples, curving backward like those of a demonic beast.

His legs bent backward, his feet extended into hooves.

A forbidden technique similar to bloodline transformation!

As he grew to the same height as Levi, he looked like a humanoid ram demon with twisted horns and a devilish appearance!

The same height as Levi's transformed state!

The demon-cultivator's strength had doubled!

"You killed her! After I kill you, I will track every single member of your family, suck out their bones and flay their flesh!"

The dark cultivator's voice had become distorted at this point. He slammed his massive fists to the ground with anger.

"Crack!!!"

The ground fractured like glass, spiderweb cracks spreading outward in all directions. Chunks of stone exploded upward.

The demon-transformed cultivator launched himself forward with speed that was so fast that he left several afterimages in the air and appeared before Levi in quarter blink of an eye.

He instantly punched towards Levi's chest.

While Levi eyes could barely track the demon cultivator's speed, his danger sense skill was activated to the maximum limit.

Levi didn't hesitate to activate Thunder step at the highest level.

"Crackle!"

Crimson lightning exploded beneath his feet as he transformed into lightning and phased to the left.

The demon's fist whistled past where Levi's head had been just a microsecond earlier.

"BOOM!"

The wall exploded, chunks of rock the size of human heads blasted outward like bullets.

The entire cave shook from the impact and even the ceiling was starting to crack.

The demon cultivator didn't stop. His other fist was already moving , following up the first strike with a backhand swing that came at Levi from an unexpected angle. The attack was so fast it created a visible arc of compressed air that glowed faintly red from friction heating.

Levi couldn't dodge completely this time. He immediately detonated another golden Astra liquid and slashed down with his blade.

"Claaaaaang!"

The was like a giant bell being struck by a sledgehammer. Shockwaves blasted everywhere, destroying everything within a fifty meters radius.

The ground beneath Levi's feet shattered as his legs dug six inches lower into the ground.

Levi felt the impact travel up his arms despite the blade absorbing most of it. The Galactic Guardian Suit's Kinetic Absorption ability activated automatically, storing twenty percent of the impact force but even the reduced blow was enough to make Levi grit his teeth against the pain.

Not giving Levi any time to recover or create distance. His massive body twisted and his legs rose as he struck a devastating roundhouse kick at Levi's chest.

Levi activated his Void Step Boots.

"WENG!"

The air beneath his feet solidified as he leapt upwards towards the roof just as the demon's kick passed through the space where he had been standing previously.

"BOOOOM!"

The kick's momentum carried it forward until the demon's leg slammed into one of the cave's pillars. The massive stone column, easily three meters in diameter exploded like it had been hit by an artillery shell. Stone fragments flew in every direction, and the pillar collapsed completely.

Airborne, Levi attacked as his saber began to glow with accumulated energy as he activated the Star Annihilation Slash for the sixth time.

Dark energy swirled around the blade like a miniature tornado, growing denser and darker until it looked like the weapon was wrapped in solid shadow. The energy pulled inward, compressing tighter and tighter until it reached critical density. The air around the saber began to distort and warp as though reality itself was bending under the weight of the accumulated power.

[Ding! Star Annihilation Slash, 7000x multiplier activated]

"DIE!!!"

Levi roared as he brought the blade down with his entire strength. The accumulated dark energy suddenly reversed its inward pull and exploded outward in a devastating wave of destruction. A crescent of pure energy erupted from the saber's edge as it sliced at the demon below.

The demon cultivator's burning eyes widened as he raised both arms above his head in a cross-block, and dark energy erupted from his body forming, layer upon layer of compressed demonic power stacking together to create a defensive wall.

"KA-BOOOOOOM!"

The roof exploded into raw dust as a massive mushroom of destructive energy exploded into the skies like a missile detonation.

Levi was forcefully blasted backward by the resultant force, slamming into the far wall, cracking it as he Imprinted himself into the wall.
