On the silent highway, the sky lies between dusk and moonlight. A dark cloud is driven by the gale, pushing the remaining light away.
Casio scans his surroundings, as the unexpected creatures surrounding him and his car. An inexplicable sense of familiarity arises within him. He startles and looks to his shadow on the right. The darkness appears to wriggle as if stimulated.
“Shadow Demon…”
He instantly acknowledges the situation at hand.
In the dimming light, five beings dressed in human clothes stand by the roadside like eerie sculptures. They seem no different from normal humans, except their shadows under the moonlight wriggle like a mass of chaotic and viscous liquid. Their arms have mutated, with five bony fingers bulging outward, almost doubling in length, akin to knife blades.
Their combat style probably also differs; they attack more like beasts. During the car chase, their bodies contorted into wild, savage shapes—an action beyond human capability. Numerous pieces of information surge into Casio’s mind.
He is slightly stern, as dark creatures like these in his memory are not to be trifled with. For instance, the Cloak Man from the Sect Destruction War was unyieldingly brave. His body had super-fast regeneration, and his strength when going all out was comparable to a martial artist’s. The Shadow Demons present likely wouldn’t be much different. They are probably tough cookies, each at the martial artist level, if not higher.
Casio understands the rules of the Shadow Demon. The terrifying nature of their victories, where they stack up the skills and physique of the defeated, is something he knows all too well. Yet, if one were to lose a fight against a Shadow Demon, it would take over your body to resurrect itself!
It would then control all your strengths and skills you possessed during your lifetime!
Exhaling slowly, Casio notices from the corner of his eyes that the Shadow Demon he had just knocked away was defyingly getting back up again, as if nothing had happened.
With a few light jumps, it returned to the highway.
“As expected…what a pain,” he muttered, his eyes downcast. Although besieged by enemies, his second-stage blood acceleration was enough to give it a shot. He immediately assumed the stance of the Wind Elephant Combat Technique.
He stomps hard with one foot in front and lightly steps with the other foot behind. His robust arms stand straight beside his body, protecting each side just like a boxer.
His broad shoulders expanded, and the muscles of his body pulsed like beating steel, channeling strength outwards inch by inch.
He guzzled a mouthful of air grimly, as his body bent like a bowstring, his chest inflating upward. His body swelled aggressively with each piece, tearing open his clothes.
His slightly dark flesh is exposed to the naked eye, his muscular upper body surfaced, veins crawling over his body like black snakes. Even his brow bore a mark in the shape of a hashtag from the throbbing veins.
Casio’s eyes flashed open, the whites laced with blood vessels as crimson rage replaced the normally calm look in his eyes.
In an instant, he shifted his state to the second stage of blood acceleration, a complete burst without reservation.
Confronted with these strong and terrifying dark creatures, he must fight with all his strength; if not, he will mostly likely die.
“Come on! Let’s test your true strength!”
He snorted hot white smoke from his nostrils, his attention now fully focused on the life and death battle at hand.
Any slight movement in his surroundings would trigger his most violent, mercury-like lethal attack!
“Whistle!”
A shadow from a distance suddenly sprints more like a monster than a man, its sharp claws emitting a deadly chill.
The first Shadow Demon’s movement triggers the others. They start running and jumping, wielding their massive claws. The claw blades shimmer ominously under the moonlight!
“Here they come!”
A shock surged in Casio’s heart. Instead of his usually fierce offensive posture, he falls into a rare defensive stance.
This is a stance only taken when facing a formidable enemy!
“Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat…”
The foremost Shadow Demon mercilessly swings its Iron Claw, storming towards him.
“Use only seventy percent of my strength, save thirty percent for the other Shadow Demons!”
Casio’s mind is crystal clear. The more dangerous the situation, the more calm he becomes. It’s essential to be aware of the whole situation when attacked by a strong enemy.
The successes and failures of attacking or defending against a single opponent mean little in this context!
“First, force this Shadow Demon away!”
With a loud thud, his right foot stomps on the ground, leaving a shallow dent in the road. His right fist unleashes like a shell.
“Clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack!”
“Boom!!!”
Two meters away, a tall, Inhuman Shadow Demon stands still in place. Its two arms break inch by inch, the sharp claw-like fingers curled and broken. The blood leaks through the gaps in the muscles, skin, and bones, trickling down in a constant drip.
Furthermore, the head, which should have been above the Shadow Demon’s neck, has disappeared. Above its shoulders is an empty space, blood spurting from it as from a fountain.
Thud! The Shadow Demon falls stiffly to the ground.
“How can it be? I only put seventy percent of my strength in that punch! I didn’t even use my trump card, the Gale Airflow, just a regular punch at the second stage of blood acceleration! One Shadow Demon was already killed by me?”
Casio is surprised, his eyebrows pinching together in disbelief and shock. He even forgets that he is currently surrounded by Shadow Demons.
“Ding! Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle…”
The Shadow Demons fiercely clawed his chest, shoulders, and even back two or three times, attempting to disembowel him. Seemingly, there was no effect. They had merely scratched the surface?
About a dozen white lines grazed his body. His thick skin was indeed broken, but there was no blood.
