Life Control could use the Life Thread to continuously transfer an opponent's life force, Star Power, and stamina to Su Ye.
Wasn't that a built-in way to keep himself going?
Everyone else wore down the longer they fought, but Su Ye only grew stronger.
It was a genuine combat Divine Art.
And yet...
When Su Ye connected the Life Thread to Charles, he felt something even stranger. It seemed... useful in another way, too?
Su Ye was enjoying himself as he tested his new Law Embryo, Life Control.
Charles, on the other hand, was having a terrible time.
He couldn't break the Blood Thread connecting him to Long Aotian!
And ever since it had attached itself to him, his condition had kept getting worse.
He'd already been hard-pressed against Long Aotian. Now he was steadily weakening while Long Aotian grew more vigorous by the moment.
Worst of all...
That damned thread was attached to his real body. What use were the clones he summoned now?
Because of the Blood Thread, even Charles's uncanny movements had lost their edge.
No matter how he twisted and dodged or hid himself, the damned thread revealed his position perfectly.
How the hell was he supposed to fight like this?!
Charles wasn't cackling anymore. He wasn't laughing at all.
Even Charles, mad dog that he was, wanted to flee.
He was crazy, not stupid!
If he stayed, he would die.
Su Ye immediately sensed Charles's intent to retreat and shook his head in disappointment.
"You're a lousy target for testing moves. In that case, I'll send you on your way."
He had tested Life Control enough anyway.
His long blade fell.
That strike...
It had no earth-shaking force or dazzling brilliance.
Only an impossibly fine, thin Black Thread, as though it could divide space itself.
