Sweat seeped from Su Xiao's forehead. His jaw muscles bulged, and red light flickered in his pupils.
"Kill Stan."
Su Xiao muttered under his breath, then froze. Even if he wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't normally mutter it aloud.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the smoke skeleton. It had already grown to the size of a washbasin, as if it were leering viciously at Su Xiao.
Su Xiao immediately shut off the Devour Core, even though he really wanted to continue devouring that pure life energy.
The Devour Core indeed had no limit, but Su Xiao did. No matter how powerful an ability was, it couldn't improve without limit in a short period. This was even more true for a violent ability like Blue Steel Shadow. Among all the enemies he had fought so far, only a handful had possessed energy that Blue Steel Shadow's energy couldn't annihilate.
After stopping the devouring, Su Xiao checked the essence of the Rebirth Dragon. The essence was still brimming with life force. Although the energy inside it was immense, it couldn't withstand Su Xiao's devouring at this rate.
By a rough estimate, Su Xiao had devoured around one-third of the energy within the essence, which left him somewhat surprised. He had originally thought he had devoured nearly half.
While he was devouring the energy, Reincarnation Paradise had issued a large number of notifications. Su Xiao opened them.
