The tip of the Wraith Short Sword pierced precisely into the brightly glowing scarlet mark on the Giant Lizard Weird.
At that instant, time seemed to stand still.
A flicker of disbelief flashed through the Giant Lizard Weird's eerie green vertical pupils.
Clearly, the "guaranteed kill" rule of Killing Blow had inflicted fatal damage on it in an instant!
Its open jaws had not even had time to close. That bloody maw, large enough to swallow Luo Fan whole, simply froze in midair.
The next instant!
The Weird Qi inside its body poured out wildly like floodwaters bursting through a dam.
Its aura plummeted.
Its signs of life rapidly dissipated.
Its enormous body crashed to the ground.
It was dead!
Luo Fan withdrew his short sword and let out a long breath.
Killing Blow truly lived up to its name.
Accumulating 100 stacks of marks had bought him this one guaranteed killing strike.
No matter how much health the opponent had, how high its defense was, or even whether it possessed an invincibility effect like his Decapitation...
As long as he struck the mark, it would die.
Moreover, his Killing Blow was a skill he had obtained by absorbing Weird Shadow's control-level rule-type weird crystal.
Its rule weight far exceeded that of ordinary rule-type skills.
"Phew..."
Luo Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead and was about to collect his spoils.
However, when he looked down at the Giant Lizard Weird's corpse, he froze.
The enormous corpse was dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It was not ordinary decay. Instead, it seemed to melt, turning into countless tiny motes of light that drifted into the air.
In just a few seconds, the entire corpse vanished completely.
Only a thin patch of ash remained where it had been.
