The White Mask, witnessing the scene, once again actively initiated a clash between the domains, preparing to take the opportunity to annihilate Su Changxing’s domain.

This would be the turning point of the battle.

In reality,

if Su Changxing didn’t expand his domain, he would have no opportunity to counterattack. In his battle against Zhu Wenwu, his power had been too depleted, already insufficient to support a battle too difficult.

Blood oozed from Su Changxing’s features, and his spirit was somewhat shaken. Sensing the White Mask’s intent, he had no way to evade, and could only brace himself.

Golden light refracted in the space, merging with the red mist.

In the next moment, the golden light disappeared, and he knelt on the ground, gasping for breath.

"Haven’t lost yet."

The data stream was even more resilient than he imagined, the domains clashed once more, yet had not completely dissipated.

At this point, the White Mask also sensed something amiss, waving the puppet in his hand, muttering something under his breath.

The red world wrapped around the surroundings, engulfing Su Changxing as well.

A large amount of blood mist filled the space, a red sun hanging high, to the left was a red river, countless hands flowing within it.

This was the true visage of the White Mask’s domain.

Su Changxing looked around, noticing a massive mask in the sky, identical to the pattern on the White Mask, but with no face inside, just a mask.

"Human, isn’t it good to live well? Must you seek death!"

The White Mask stood in mid-air, the gray, exquisite long robe softly fluttering, looking down at Su Changxing, eyes filled with cold indifference.

At this moment.

Su Changxing also felt breathless, sensing his blood beginning to boil, as if burning, yet his recovery ability was incredibly strong, achieving a short-lived balance with the destructive force.

Such an extreme environment would be lethal to ordinary people, but for him, it’s bearable in the short term.

A message came from his phone.

[Special Mission (Sprout): You face a high-level existence, their essence highly destructive, numerous worlds perished because of them, Armageddon follows in their wake.

1: Eliminate him, delay the more terrifying apocalypse. (Reward three special enhancements, one promotion opportunity, and one high-tier mysterious item)

2: Severely wound him, delay the more terrifying apocalypse. (Reward three special enhancements)

3: Let him go, you may avoid danger, but miss a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

4: Ally with him, you will become a factor in the apocalypse, with a chance to transform into a Blood Species. (Provides advancement method for the next tier)]

Delay the more terrifying apocalypse?

Su Changxing confirmed that the so-called "more terrifying apocalypse" is likely the third phase of the Doomsday Game, so there should be a way to prevent it.

What confused him more, was the mission surprisingly offered an option to ally with the other party.

The Doomsday Game’s attitude made it even more unpredictable.

So was the apocalypse first, then the Doomsday Game, or was the Doomsday Game first, then the apocalypse.

······

Su Changxing didn’t let himself think more, allying is impossible, killing the opponent should be the best choice.

This time he understood.

He immediately withdrew his domain, preventing another domain clash, and drew the revolver with his left hand, shooting towards the masked figure.

Four bullets flew out consecutively, passing through the red mist, almost instantly reaching the White Mask.

White Mask moved quickly, dodging four shots, but was hit in the abdomen by one, causing a fist-sized blood hole.

The distance seemed far, but was actually close, the White Mask’s domain did not alter the spatial rules, only visually different.

Meanwhile.

Su Changxing’s face started shedding flesh, mouth spewing black blood in abundance, evaporating into blood mist upon hitting the ground.

"You are done, humans are ultimately weak beings."

The White Mask looked down on Su Changxing, words filled with mockery, as the wound on his abdomen healed visibly.

"Rakshasa two, Black Blood!"

He raised one hand high, the surrounding blood mist suddenly changed to black, rapidly condensing, obstructing vision, forming a semi-solid state, suspended in mid-air.

The red world suddenly transformed into black, without the slightest light, White Mask’s figure vanished from Su Changxing’s sight.

Su Changxing clearly felt his body continuously deteriorating, yet persistently healing under the "Lizardman" ability.

He held the revolver, shooting continuously toward the White Mask’s position, emptying the magazine, reloading, shooting, reloading, and shooting again.

The space was only so large, White Mask didn’t have much room to dodge.

But as the blood mist turned semi-solid, it could partially block his bullets, significantly reducing their power.

"Give up, you have no chance of defeating me!"

White Mask’s voice echoed throughout the space, still so composed, so elegant, so lofty.

Su Changxing laughed loudly upon hearing: "I can fight for a day, how about you?"

The flesh on his body had mostly fallen off during constant movement, revealing white bones and joint tendons.

However, such injuries had no effect on him.

The "Butcher Physique" meant he had no fatal weaknesses and wouldn’t be hindered by injuries.

At this moment, both sides reached a delicate balance, moving from a battle of muscles to a test of endurance. Whoever could last till the end would be the winner.

But in reality, Su Changxing was at a great disadvantage.

Even with the "Butcher Physique," he was still human. When injuries reached a certain extent, death was inevitable and unavoidable.

The White Mask had an advantage in Life Level, as they were a more advanced life form compared to humans.

At this moment.

Su Changxing’s own Healing Ability was completely unable to keep up with the rate at which his body was being destroyed.

If this continued, he would surely die here!

Die in this pitch-black space.

Su Changxing noticed that when those black blood mists were dispersed, a large amount of Blood Energy would spill out, similar to the phenomenon of a massive number of orderly lives dying at the same time and being preserved.

And his ability "Butcher’s Blade" could convert Blood Energy, thereby enhancing his physique.

A large amount of Blood Energy surged into his body, and his physique rapidly increased at a visible speed.

22, 23, 24······

Bullets penetrated the black blood mist, releasing immense Blood Energy, which he then absorbed. The Blood Energy was so enormous it was akin to tens of thousands dying simultaneously.

The enhancement from "Butcher’s Blade" was actually not significant, but with such a massive foundation of Blood Energy, it was a different story.

Initially, Su Changxing’s body continued to crumble, but when his ribs became exposed, the crumbling stopped and began to heal instead.

"Huh?"

The White Mask also noticed the change in Su Changxing’s body.

"Your body has grown stronger, how is this possible? You are absorbing this Blood Energy? This is impossible, a human can’t do such a thing."

He seemed very shocked.

The level of life is not easily broken through, unless one’s own power has reached an extreme, which means High-tier Extraordinary for humans.

And Su Changxing clearly was not, he was merely a weak Tier Seven, not even reaching the threshold for High-tier Extraordinary.

At least Tier Five was needed to be considered High-tier Extraordinary.

They could break through the shackles of life, even approaching the brink of eternity.

Masked beings like these Blood Species are inherently High-level Life.

From their birth, they have had a long life. As long as the world exists, they won’t die easily, roughly equating to the lifespan of heaven and earth.

The conversion of Blood Energy is actually one of the characteristics of High-level Life, allowing them to quickly accumulate their own power.

For a human to become a High-tier Extraordinary requires a lengthy period.

But they do not need it; they only need to keep devouring other low-level lives, absorb Blood Energy, and naturally become High-tier Extraordinary.

This has never been a fair world.

Such beings start at the finishing line that other lives aspire to reach through struggle.

Besides reproduction, strengthening oneself serves the purpose of evolving into higher-level life.

Clearly.

Su Changxing hadn’t realized the issue with the "Game Butcher" role, thinking the effect of "Butcher’s Blade" was like a special enhancement, merely an accompanying ability.

"What is impossible? I’ve already done it now, haven’t I?"

Su Changxing slightly raised his eyebrow, realizing the bug in this ability—it seemed to have no upper limit, able to enhance as much as there was Blood Energy.

Or rather, this is the bug with Blood Energy.

By now, his physique had reached around 28 and was still rising, just at a slower pace.

The White Mask reached out to catch a bullet, a blood light flashing in his eyes, saying, "Rules exist everywhere. In every world, every crevice, every stratum."

"Like when I kill you, that’s as it should be, while you trying to kill me is against the rules."

"Your attempt to gain the power of Blood Energy will inevitably lead you to the Abyss, just like that kid before."

Su Changxing looked at him without rushing to act, knowing such abundant Blood Energy couldn’t be found elsewhere.

"Rules? Where are there so many rules? I think, no one is willing to be born a slave; weakness itself is the original sin."

He loaded bullets into the revolver one by one, unhurriedly speaking, with the injuries on his body mostly healed.

Suddenly, the surroundings brightened, returning to the dense jungle it was before, with heavy black mist covering the sky.

A moment ago, the White Mask was speaking in lofty terms, the next moment he retreated decisively.

"Really has no bottom line at all."

Su Changxing couldn’t help but ridicule, looking in the direction where the White Mask left, immediately giving chase.

With the substantial enhancement of his physique, his Strength and Speed had also increased to a certain extent, making catching up easier than before.
