Lord Of Martial Arts

Merle rushed over, without hesitation, to launch an attack from behind on Turan.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He delivered tens of thousands of blows into his back, the rumblings from the strikes like a hundred horses galloping across hard ground.

The punches might not have caused much harm to Turan, but they had at least grabbed his attention.

The Rule Soul Avatar took this opportunity to use the Hiding Law once more and conceal himself.

It had all happened so fast. Turan had only lost his focus for a mere moment and when he turned around again, the Rule Soul Avatar had vanished. He clenched his fists in frustration and decided to take all his anger out on Merle, who, unfortunately for him, was still behind Turan.

Bang!

The claw struck Merle cleanly, crushing his body to pieces.

Merle was quite incensed to have died again; death was obviously never a pleasant experience.

It was no surprise that the Rule Soul Avatar's Resurrection Force soon surrounded his shattered body.

Merle had now died twice. Even if he was brought back to life again, he would be extremely weak. If he was killed a third time, the Rule Soul Avatar might not be able to save him.

The Rule Soul Avatar was aware of this and so, once Merle's body had gathered back together, he hid him as well.

But his safety was far from guaranteed. Turan had managed to pull the Rule Soul Avatar out of hiding earlier and Merle was much weaker than he was. There was no way he could stay hidden forever.

The Rule Soul Avatar had to make his move fast and kill Turan as soon as possible. Dragging this fight out would do them no good.

The Rule Soul Avatar weaved his way around, staying hidden and waiting for his chance to strike.

Furious, Turan hoisted the huge pillar up and swept it around the space, trying to find the humans. However, the Rule Soul Avatar dodged it nimbly; he would not let it be so easy to knock him out of hiding this time.

Merle followed the Rule Soul Avatar closely, growing angst taking over his body. His heart thumped heavily with fear, feeling every second like he was about to be smashed once more.

The Rule Soul Avatar spent a long while biding his time before he finally found the right opportunity to strike.

He activated the law force and launched a vicious attack on Turan.

Turan let out a deafening roar when he took the hit.

He could not fight back against the bombardment of law force and almost lost his mind because of his inability to escape.

He endured this torture for a few hours before it thankfully came to an end.

Turan hovered in the air, trembling. There was not a visible in

this human has almost killed you. What makes you think I would want to get into this sort of trouble?"

It seemed Yushua was no fool. Seeing the beating Turan had taken was enough to convince him of this human's power. He knew he and Turan were no match for him.

Yushua retreated, immediately sending out a message in an attempt to summon superior fiends for backup.

The Rule Soul Avatar blocked his message right away, allowing nothing to escape, and at the same time struck out without warning at Yushua using the tribulation thunder.

Yushua sensed the terrifying power racing towards him and tried to escape.

But the speed of the tribulation thunder was too fast and crashed into him before he knew it.

"No!"

Yushua felt his soul crumbling away. He could not believe what was happening. He had only come over to survey the situation; he had not expected that he'd be struck down without even a slight chance of escape.

In an instant, the tribulation thunder took his life.

"Here's my chance!"

Merle sprung out of hiding and sprinted desperately for Yushua's corpse.

"Merging!"

A mysterious power radiated from the essence bead inside Merle's body, penetrating into Yushua's corpse.

"Ah!"

Merle grunted and twisted his face in anguish as he pushed through this painful process. His face and body had changed quickly and sharp thorns sprouted out from his back.

This was the grotesque process of transformation that took place from merging with Yushua's body.

The Rule Soul Avatar floated in the air on the opposite side, looking at the five black pagodas not far off with an icy stare frozen onto his face.

"He's gotten away!"

The Rule Soul Avatar frowned. Turan had escaped when he was getting rid of Yushua!
