Marvel: Killing Makes You Stronger

Chapter 192: Death of the Hell lords

This sudden terrifying power struck fear into all the Hell lords trapped in time.

They are akin to Celestials; at this level, they can influence time, but time cannot affect them. However, now Bi Xiao has imprisoned them in this segment of time, rendering them immobile in the suspended time.

What does this signify?

It signifies death.

At this level, even the smallest flaw can lead to extremely dire consequences.

Especially in a life-and-death battle.

Lucifer roared in his heart, continuously trying to release his power to break free from the temporal imprisonment of his body and soul. Though they couldn't move, their thoughts were not fixed. Evidently, Bi Xiao's manipulation of time couldn't completely imprison all of their faculties.

However, it was sufficient. Lucifer kept struggling, but the outcome was very grim.

There was some effect, but not much. The effect of the struggle was merely a slight tremor and floating of their bodies, but no significant movements could be made.

The outcome was inevitable: death.

In EX mode, with super speed, Bi Xiao's speed surpassed the speed of light by several times, known as superluminal speed. At this speed, Bi Xiao felt as if he was passing through a tunnel, even though the distance was short, the tunnel crossing time was also short.

Instinctively, he crossed the tunnel and arrived in front of a Hell lord. In the latter's horrified gaze, Bi Xiao expressionlessly raised the Sword of Promised Victory and beheaded him.

At the moment of cutting through flesh, the magic in the Sword of Promised Victory transformed into holy flames, using the Hell lord's own dark energy to fuel the holy fire. The head, body, and even the soul were consumed by the holy fire.

In the blink of an eye, the Hell lord turned into a crystalline skeleton, his soul burned into a translucent soul crystal.

Unlike the conscious soul of a Hell lord, this soul crystal was pure soul power forged by the burning.

Bi Xiao paid no attention to these, instead setting his sights on the next Hell lord. Just as before, he raised the Sword of Promised Victory, beheaded, burned, and repeated the cycle. Finally, Lucifer watched as one Hell lord after another—Marduk, Satannish, Beelzebub, Olivier—were slaughtered.

They were like prey awaiting death, and Bi Xiao was the terrifying hunter, reaping their lives.

Until he stood in front of Lucifer.

"I cannot fathom your power. I should not have come here. From the moment that thing appeared, you were already preparing for our arrival, weren't you? We are merely your prey." Lucifer used all his strength to gain the power to speak as Bi Xiao raised the Sword of Promised Victory.

Facing Bi Xiao's cold gaze, Lucifer bitterly spoke his last words: "It's not just Hell, but also Heaven. Do not underestimate those guys."

After saying this, he closed his eyes. Bi Xiao wasted no words and swung his sword. The golden light drew a perfect arc, beheading Lucifer. As with the previous Hell lords, Lucifer's body began to burn with holy fire.

His remains were an even more exquisite and crystalline skeleton, and of course, those black wings and the Sword of Death remained.

Buzz!!

The moment Lucifer died, signifying the death of all the Hell lords, Bi Xiao released his control over time. The next moment, he felt a sense of "weakness," but Bi Xiao was unfazed.

This "weakness" was a minor side effect of the EX mode.

After all, the rapid increase in magic power by dozens of times dissipated, and returning to normal after being accustomed to such heights always brought some discomfort. This time, however, the discomfort was far clearer and more intense than before.

Because this time, the EX mode had allowed him to touch a level beyond the Celestials, returning to such a state again was a significant regression.

It also amplified the discomfort.

However, this discomfort quickly vanished as the nine Hell lords' soul crystals, skeletal materials, and most importantly, life essence were absorbed into his body.

Boom!!

Bi Xiao floated in the sky, a terrifying aura rippling through the entire deathmatch space, causing the entire dimensional space to vibrate intensely. White cracks, visible to the naked eye, appeared as if a mirror was about to shatter.

His life level once again completed a leap, and the speed of this leap was very rapid.

His originally perfect divine body was reshaped by the life essence; bones, organs, muscles, blood vessels, all seemed to be forged by holy fire. Cells divided again, filled with vitality, life, and holy energy.

The surrounding space continually compressed, expanded, explored, compressed, and expanded. Layers of golden halos swept far and wide, then finally froze, and astonishingly, rapidly recoiled.

Ultimately, the halos were reabsorbed into Bi Xiao's body.

Bi Xiao immersed himself in this transformation, observing every minute change in his body. This evolution was like art, making one absorbed. He also saw countless golden cells being born, numbering in the millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions, billions.

The increase in golden magic cells allowed Bi Xiao to once again touch the level he had in EX mode.

No, it was even clearer than in EX mode.

But it also abruptly halted, leaving behind a brand new stage of transformation. Just as Bi Xiao had transcended to become a Celestial, this was another stage of metamorphosis.

Once this metamorphosis was fully complete, Bi Xiao would fully step beyond the level of the Celestials, reaching a level truly equal to Dormammu, a singular universe.

Boom!

After completing his transformation, Bi Xiao once again activated EX mode, but then realized that the magic power infused in EX mode was insufficient.
