"Screech!!"
The Golden Crow cried out. Its wings, flowing with golden flames, suddenly beat, trailing dust and scorched ash as it charged toward an ability user.
With a sweep of its wings, countless sparks wrapped in violently searing flames instantly engulfed the ability user before he could react.
His body visibly began to blacken and bend, then peeled away like thoroughly burned paper, turning to ash.
Boom...
Rather than feeling anger at his companion's death, another ability user became even more excited.
Death stimulated his nerves, making him fearless as he made the same move Dugu Zhui had made before dying.
Trading his life for another's.
He directly discarded the flesh on his body. The bones within him pierced through his skin, blood spraying everywhere, transforming into eerie white bones that suddenly appeared behind Jiang Li. An arm smeared with rotting flesh reached out, about to embrace her.
"Shatter!"
Space suddenly burst apart. Vibrational Force was like an invisible giant hand, pinning the white bones down so firmly that he could not move.
Yet even so, the bloody white bones continued howling. The eyeballs deep within his sockets had not fallen out, instead rolling wildly about without restraint.
White, black, and red combined into an incomparably grotesque sight.
Lincon and the Golden Dragon arrived in time, saving Jiang Li at the last moment.
Jiang Li let out a breath and controlled Fire Edge to turn back. The Golden Crow soared into the sky, its fiery wings like a massive folding fan closing together, enclosing the ability user within a curtain of light.
Flames spread along the cracks in the white bones, seeping into the marrow.
The ability user rolled about in agony amid the flames, yet eerie laughter came from his throat, which no longer even had vocal cords.
**"Hahahaha...
