Chapter 956
He wanted to dodge the blow.
However, he found that he could not bring his hand back as it was being firmly grasped by Ancient T-Rex‘s claws.
David knew the power of this tail, so he did not dare to let it hit him.
Therefore, he could only slam into Adan, pushing the two of them back simultaneously.
Although this did not hurt Adan at all, at least it kept David out of the reach of the Ancient T–Rex‘s tail.
David‘s right hand was trapped so he could not break free.
He could only make a fist with his left hand and repeatedly punched the crimson Ancient T-Rex‘s head.
Thud thud thud thud thud!
After a dozen punches, David‘s left hand was dripping with blood, but he still did not car e.
Adan held David‘s fist with his left hand that was equipped with claws.
Then, Adan raised his knee while David kicked out.
Boom!
The two collided, and their bodies separated at the same time.
David bared his teeth and rubbed his wrist.
‘Damn, this beast is tough to deal with.
‘I wonder what that crimson potion is and how it can add so much combat power to someone.
‘I should get some for myself just in case.‘If David knew the side effects of the Blood–Burning potion, he would not want to take any.
David looked at Adan from a distance.
Adan looked like he had a crimson beast–shaped coat draped over his body.
‘This ball of gas has such great offense and defense.
‘If I can‘t break through this layer, I won‘t be able to hurt Adan inside.
‘If I can‘t hurt him, I will eventually die from exhaustion.
‘Even if I am an expert in Ancient Traditional Medicine and I can try my best
to avoid any blows to my vital parts and stem my wounds temporarily, I won‘t be able to withstand this for long.
‘What should I do?‘
David did not know what to do at this moment.
Now, he had basically shown all his trump cards.
He had a peak Cosmos Ranker combat power, and he had used Void Punch, one of the top combat skills.
‘Wait…
David‘s eyes lit up.
He still had two top combat skills.
He could not use the Evil–Splitting Sword Technique as he did not have a sword right now, but he could use the Air Crushing Slap.
The description stated that the Air Crushing Slap could ignore all obstacles in any space.
‘Does it mean I can ignore the crimson gas exterior and directly hurt Adan?‘
As David was wondering what he should do to Adan, Adan struck again.
He had disappeared from his location and appeared in front of David.
Even though he was in a state of rage and could not stop and think calmly, he knew he should kill the person in front of him as fast as he could.Adan waved his claw at David. Then, David nimbly dodged this attack.
At the same time, he slapped Adan‘s chest.
‘Air Crushing Slap!
Not only did Adan not dodge, he even grabbed David with his other hand.
Right now, aside from killing David, he had no other thoughts in his head.
Boom!
“Pfft!”
David endured the strong claw on his shoulder voluntarily. At the same time, he spat out another mouthful of blood.
This attack worsened his injuries.
Since Adan‘s claw was much stronger than David‘s arm, David could only endure an attack from the opponent before he could land the Air Crushing Slap on the opponent‘s chest.
He grabbed Adan‘s claw with his left hand and used his right hand to slap Adan‘s chest with the Air Crushing Slap.
Even though the crimson gas beast enveloped Adan, this energy passed through the ga s and penetrated Adan‘s body, going straight to his heart.
chapter 957
The void plunged into silence.
David grabbed the arm of Adan‘s beast‘s coat with his left hand while his right hand formed an open palm on Adan‘s chest in the form of a slap.
The two stood silently in the void, and neither of them moved.
David indeed looked worrying in his current state.
His clothes were all tattered and covered with bloodstains.Selena was apprehensive. At the same time, Mason and the elites from Earth were also very nervous.
After all, the outcome of this battle was related to the life and death of tens of billions of human beings on Earth.
As for Nine and lone, they had long since disappeared.
Adan stared at David with big blood–red eyes like he was about to eat David.
However, the blood red tint in his eyes slowly faded away.
The crimson gas beast surrounding his body also began to dissipate.
“Pfft!”
Adan spat out a mouthful of blood.
His breathing began to decline rapidly and immediately reached its lowest point.
Only at this moment did he wake up from his rage.
His eyes were full of disbelief.
He was in the Ancient T-Rex state after using Blood–Burning Potion, but he was defeated before the drug wore out.
The Blood–Burning Potion was precious in the Milky Way and could enhance one‘s combat power according to the consumer‘s situation.
I‘ve already reached partial Celestial Rank, yet I‘ve been defeated?
‘How can that be?‘
Adan opened his mouth to speak, but when he opened his mouth, blood began to pour out of it continuously.
David‘s Air Crushing Slap went straight through his defenses, shattering his heart.
Even a Cosmos Ranker like Adan could not bear the heart shattering injury.
What was more, he was already a spent force.
He would surely die if the Blood–Burning Potion‘s efficacy wore off.
Adan was speechless and could only stare fixedly at David.However, as his life slowly faded, his eyes also began to close slowly.
His body slumped sideways, and he fell into the void.
Lord Adan of the Tuffin family, who had wandered rampantly through the Milky way for many years, died like this in the impoverished area on the edge of the Milky Way
“Cough cough…”
David coughed violently.
Adan‘s death also lifted the weight off his heart.
If David could not deal with Adan with the Air Crushing Slap, he would not know what to do anymore.
Today‘s battle was definitely the most difficult one of his life.
He had used up almost all his trump cards.
He barely achieved victory until the very last minute.
Selena, Mason, and the others were overjoyed to see David win.
The Earth finally escaped doom yet again.
They hurried to David while Selena stepped forward to support David.
The others stood by
David looked at Selena next to him. After he thought about it, he did not decline and allowed Selena to support him.
“David, how do you feel? Are you badly injured?” Mason asked in worry.
David shook his hands and said, “I’m fine. This is nothing, Old Master Stefani, don‘t worry about me. I know medicine, and I know my condition. I’ll be fine after some rest.”
“That‘s good. That‘s good.”
Mason let out a visible sigh.
“Thank you for saving the Earth once again, Mr. David. You‘re the hero of all earthlings. Please accept my admiration toward you,” one of the powerhouses from Earth said, putting his hands together and bowing.
The others also bowed at David and said, “Please accept our admiration toward you, Mr. David.”
“Don‘t be so humble, everyone. Earth is my home. As long as I am here, I won‘t let anyone invade Earth,” David said righteously
“Mr. David, you are our model. We will definitely learn from you. We will use our lives to protect our home and Earth.”
“We will use our lives to protect our home and Earth,” the others repeated.
David looked at the impassioned powerhouses from Earth.
chapter 958
David also felt very comforted.
Although there might be some slight friction between the major forces, everyone still knew their priorities when facing foreign enemies.
They were able to unite and fight against foreign enemies.
This was pretty amazing.
“I‘m relieved that everyone thinks so.”
After David finished speaking, he looked at Adan‘s corpse floating in the void.
He turned his head and motioned for Selena to let him go first.
After that, he walked up to Adan and started examining his body.
As he examined further, David‘s frown deepened.
After he finished the examination, David‘s face turned dark.
Mason and the others felt the weight return onto their chests again after it was lifted earlier.
“What‘s wrong? David, is there a problem?” Mason asked.“Oh! No problem, don‘t worry, Old Master Stefani,” David said after returning to his senses.
At this time, he had already started to curse in his heart. As someone proficient in Ancient Traditional Medicine, David
saw that all the cells in Adan‘s body were about to break down when he examined Adan.
Furthermore, this effect was irreversible.
This was even more serious than Mason‘s condition in the past.
Even with his current medical skills, David had no way to prevent
In other words, even if he did not kill Adan, Adan would have died due to the breakdown of the cells in his body before long.
This was the aftermath of taking that crimson potion.
The function of the crimson potion should be to stimulate the cells of the consumer, allowing them to release powerful energy over a short period.
This would then increase the combat power of the consumer. This was equivalent to fighting with the consumer‘s life.
David was depressed.
He wanted badly to slap himself.
‘Why bother with Adan?
‘If I held on a little longer, Adan would have died without me doing anything.
‘Doesn‘t this mean that I suffered the f*cking injuries to my body in vain?‘ David cursed inwardly.
He originally planned to get some of that potion to try in the future if he had the chance.
However, from what he could see now, he decided to forget it as he would exchange his life for combat power. David did not want himself nor the people around him to use it.
“It‘s good that you‘re fine. By the way, David, the young man and woman from the Tuffin family fled in secret. If we let them leave, will they continue to bring more people to Earth?” Mason asked.
“Don‘t worry, I’ll go and capture them later. How dare they invade Earth? Of course, I won‘t let them flee so easily,” David replied.
“David, but what about your injuries?” Selena said in worry.
“Don‘t worry, I’m fine.”
After David said that, he disappeared from in front of everyone and started heading toward the direction lone and Nine escaped in.
He had hidden a backup plan for himself.
He had planted a mind mark on Nine.
He could stop them if he followed them using the mark.
Mason and the rest waited without moving from their current spots.
Soon, David came back with the unconscious youngsters in each hand. It was Nine and lone, who had fled just now.
They were miles apart from David in their current realm, so how could they escape from David?
“Let‘s go. We‘ll interrogate them after we bring them back.”
After David said that, he tossed the people in his hands to Mason.
Then, he returned to Earth in advance with Selena while the others followed suit.
chapter 959
When David killed Adan, the alarm blared again in the ancestral home of the Tuffin family in Planet Tuffin in the heart of the
Stella Civilization Galaxy.
“S–S–Sir! Something bad has happened” A clansman who looked after the life plaque of the Tuffin family‘s direct descendants stammered as he reported to the manager of the Tuffin family.
“Why are you panicking like that? Spit it out!”
“L–L–Lord Adan is dead!”
“What? Say that again! W-who is dead?” The manager immediately stood up and said in shock.
“Lord Adan Tuffin is dead! His life plaque broke just now.”
“Quick… Quick… Report this to Lord Orson now!”
“Yes!”
Orson was receiving a distinguished guest at this time. The guest was Cadmus Fernsby, the associate dean of the Novenary Institution in the Milky Way Battle Institution.
The Milky Way Battle Institution was an elite college under the Milky Way Empire.
It was specially designed to transport talents to the empire.
It was divided into nine institutions in total.
The nine institutions operated independently and competed with each other at the same time.
Pavan was the chief of the Novenary Institution.
Although he had not returned to the Novenary Institution for many years because he was looking for an indigenous living planet outside, and he might not be the strongest entity in the Novenary Institution, he was still officially recognized as the chief.
This once–in–a–century battle among the nine institutions was soon to be held.
As chief of the Novenary Institution, Pavan had to come back to participate. In reality, Pavan had not been in the Novenary Institution for many years, and many powerful elites had emerged in the institution.
Many people wanted to challenge Pavan for his position but could not since Pavan was not around.
They could only wait for the battle among the nine institutions to challenge Pavan and seize the position of chief when the latter returned.
Since the battle between the nine institutions was approaching and the Novenary Institution could not contact Pavan, they could only come to the Tuffin family to inquire about Pavan‘s whereabouts.
They wanted the Tuffin family to bring Pavan back.
The Novenary Institution was unaware of Pavan‘s death, showing how high the Tuffin family‘s level of confidentiality was.
“Lord Orson, you should know why I‘m here this time. Pav has been away from the Novenary Institution for nearly 20 years. As the chief, he has to come back to participate in the battle among the nine institutions. Otherwise, we‘ll strip him of his position as chief and kick him out of the Novenary Institution,” Cadmus said to Orson.
Although the Tuffin family was one of the eight prominent families of the Milky Way
Empire, the Novenary Institution was a subordinate institution of the Milky Way Empire.
One was a family, while the other one was an official institution of the Milky Way Empire.
Therefore, the Novenary Institution would not be scared of the Tuffin family.
As the associate dean of the Novenary Institution, Cadmus was not humble at all in his mannerisms despite not being as powerful as Lord Orson of the Tuffin family.
“Mr. Fernsby, you haven‘t heard. Something happened to Pav, so he might not ever return,” Orson said.
Since they had come to this stage, he could only tell the truth.
It was not wise to lie to the Novenary Institution.
No matter how strong the Tuffin family was, they would not dare to go head–on with an official empire institution like the Milky Way Battle Institution.
Adan and the rest should be on Earth now, planting the slave mark
Everything was progressing smoothly, and no one could stop the Tuffin family from rising again.
“Something happened to Pavan? What do you mean by that?” Cadmus asked curiously.
“Pav‘s life plaque was broken a few days ago. So, he might not ever return anymore,” Orson answered.
“Pavan‘s life plaque was broken? He‘s dead? When?”
“Yes, not long ago.”
“How?”
“We‘re looking into it.”
“Did you have any results?”
“Not for now.”
“If you find anything, please tell the Novenary Institution. At the end of the day, Pavan was still the chief. If he died accidentally while exploring, then it’s fine. However, if he was killed by someone, the Novenary Institution will not spare them,” Cadmus said with a baleful look on his face.
chapter 960
He certainly did not care about Pavan‘s death.
In recent years, many elite students had emerged at the Novenary Institution.
Pavan‘s talent was limited, and it would be difficult for him to retain the chief position without a fortuitous meeting. Despite this, Pavan held onto the position of chief of the Novenary Institution.
Wouldn‘t his death prove that the Novenary Institution was incompetent?
Even the chief died so easily, so how would the Novenary Institution continue to face others?
Although all nine institutions were subordinates belonging to the Milky Way Battle Institution, the competition between them was actually very fierce.
No one wanted to be in a disadvantageous position.
If the other eight institutions knew that the chief of the Novenary Institution died so easily, this fact would inevitably be brought up in the battle between the nine institutions, which would bring shame to the Novenary Institution.
The dean was someone who valued his prestige. If he embarrassed himself in battle, the whole of the Novenary Institution would not enjoy a single day of peace. If Cadmus knew this, he would have directly stripped Pavan of the position of chief.
Now, he had to go back and discuss this with the dean.
“Mr. Fernsby, rest assured. As soon as there is news, we will notify the Novenary Institution immediately.”
“That‘s good! But please keep this matter a secret, Lord Orson. After all, Pavan‘s death is not good for you, your family, or the Novenary Institution.”
Orson understood what Cadmus was saying, so he said, “I understand! I understand!”
“Then I won‘t bother you anymore, Lord Orson.”
Cadmus was about to bid farewell after he carried out his purpose.
“Mr. Fernsby, please stay here for a few days so that we can carry out the hospitality befitting of a host,” Orson tried to keep Cadmus.
“No, I won‘t disturb you, Lord Orson. Since the battle among the nine institutions is coming, I have to take care of many things back in the institution. Goodbye!”
Orson took out something silently and put it in Cadmus‘ hand. He said, “Since you‘re busy, then I won‘t force you. After the battle, you must drop by the house for a visit.”
“Of course, of course.”
Cadmus walked out with Orson after he accepted the object. The two men came to the courtyard before Cadmus lifted his body and flew into the sky.
A Milky Way Battleship was parked there waiting for him.
After Cadmus entered the ship, the ship drove away.
After sending off Cadmus, Orson walked back to the living room and sighed.
‘The Tuffin family is going downhill indeed.
‘Even the associate dean of the Novenary Institution dares to come and ride roughshod over me.
‘If we were the Allaband family, Cadmus will definitely be humble and not dare to disrespect us in the slightest.
This is the difference in power.
‘We‘re both members of the eight prominent families of the Milky Way Empire, but the Allaband family and the Tuffin family are viewed so differently.
‘If it weren‘t for the Grandmaster still being alive and deterring others, our lives would be even worse. We might have already lost our spot among the eight prominent families.
‘But everything will be fine.
‘As long as Adan and the rest succeed, our family will rise again, and no one will stop us.
‘With Nine‘s talent alongside the talent from the slave mark that he will absorb, he will have unlimited achievements in the future.
‘This is the Tuffin family‘s only chance.‘
While Orson was looking forward to the Tuffin family‘s future glory, his communication device rang.
After he picked it up and listened to it, he was dumbfounded.
