At that moment, all of Gerald's hair stood upright, and he knew for sure that he would not be able to dodge the attack. With that in mind, he gathered what strength he could to hold himself back for a clash!
A split second later, the giant hand struck Gerald, causing an explosion of energy and white smoke to form as Gerald found himself flying backwards! The strong impact force alone had caused Gerald—'s clothes especially on his back— to be torn to shreds, and before long, Gerald's back collided with the stone walls in the area!
Immediately coughing up blood, Gerald no longer had to wonder how that savage killed the other Spirit Earth Realm masters. From what Gerald knew, killing them must have been as easy as pounding garlic with incredible savage power! He was much stronger than Hogan!
If not for the fact that Gerald had recently increased his strength sharply— by studying and utilizing the art of Thunder—'s Eruption then there was a high chance that he was already dead due to that one blow.
After all, now was not the time to stop and think about all this. Using all the strength left in him, Gerald instantly activated his lightness skill to evade the large-bodied man before secretly—and quickly—climbed to the stone ceiling in the area. As soon as he gripped tightly enough, he immediately held his breath.
Fortunately, the male monster beneath him did not seem to know where he was going. Gerald further confirmed this when the savage started running around the area to find him! How difficult he is!
Although he was now sweating, Gerald was grateful that he could at least catch his breath for now ... Or at least that's what he thinks.
He would never have expected the — jade pendant that had hung around his neck — regardless of his now tattered clothes due to the awkward angle he was facing at the moment!
While that alone was alarming enough, it certainly did not help that the dangling pendant instantly began to shine brightly!
Similar to lighting a very bright light in the middle of a pitch-black room all of a sudden, everything in that area could now be seen very clearly.
'For God's sake, even if you don't want to help me, there's no reason for you to hurt me!' Gerald thought to himself as the giant man slowly raised his head to see where the light was coming from.
Their eyes are now glued to each other, as the brief silence between the two feels like forever as Gerald finds himself deeply focused on the barbaric physical characteristics.
'I was wrong before, he wasn't six feet tall, but he was actually nearly seven! Her hair was everywhere and she also had a bushy beard that covered most of her face! As for his eyes, they were an incredible bright blue color, and his muscles... They were like piles on top of a pile of reinforced steel lining his body, filled to the brim with explosive force!'
It was the last thing Gerald could record before the savage finally let out another roar.
While gulping, Gerald really wished he could fly out from there.
However, before he could even execute his plan, the savage suddenly jumped off the ground! Unable to even block the attack, Gerald found his neck clenched before instantly losing its grip on the ceiling!
Although it was truly painful, Gerald soon began to struggle in his miserable attempt to escape the savage clutches.
Is this the end of his life? Would his neck be twisted, just like he had done to his sixth and seventh brothers before?
As thoughts of fear continued to rage in Gerald's mind, he suddenly realized that the savage had not finished him off directly. Surprised, he slowly turned around to see what made that savage person …
To his astonishment, the savage was now staring at the jade pendant lying on his chest! Moreover, his grip on Gerald's neck slowly loosened with time!
Afterwards, Gerald watched as the savage carefully removed the pendant from Gerald's neck. Since the pendant itself was only the size of a newborn's palm, in the big man's hand, the pendant was more like a grain of wheat.
After studying it for some time, the big man used the pendant light to illuminate Gerald's face…
As soon as he did, he immediately put the jade pendant back into Gerald's chest before retreating a few steps in fear. If Gerald had to describe the look on the savage's face, it was as if he had just seen the devil!
As if that wasn't surprising enough, the savage quickly knelt before him with a loud 'beep' before declaring in a deep and hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, Lord God, because I have sinned!"
Shocked for a moment, Gerald quickly regained his wits and—after tucking the pendant back into his tattered shirt— replied, “...Mr Dewa?”
“Yes, Lord God! This lowly one is named Leo, and I greet you with great respect!” the savage shouted before bowing his head to the ground.
From the looks of it, the savage seemed to be somewhat similar to Queena. After all, both of them recognized him as some kind of god. Could Leo and Queena be from the same place…? If that's the case, how does that mean Leo should be at least thousands of years old!
As Gerald admired that fact, he began to wonder why the jade pendant had chosen to light up again now, the entire time. The warm sensation that last appeared a few days ago is now present as well.
Could it be that the jade pendant sensed that the people from this place were nearby and would eventually appear?
