The World Awakens: Ten Consecutive Draws Before Invincibility

Chapter 88: Backlash

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Within the fog.

A delicate and voluptuous figure was hidden in the mist. Her beautiful face was filled with disbelief.

Something happened in the very next second.

Pfft!

She spat out a mouthful of blood.

The blood landed on the red dress that clung to her body. One could no longer tell if the red color on her dress was the original color of the fabric or the color of the blood that she had spat out.

“How is this possible?!”

Ivanovna asked in shock.

The soul attack earlier was her final trump card.

It was a combination of the SSS-rank talent [Ghost Spirit Domain] and the SS-rank talent [Crow of Misfortune]. It was her strongest move.

This was her real trump card.

Before unleashing this technique, Ivanovna had never felt that she would lose to Chen Feng.

She never once thought that she would be defeated by Chen Feng regardless of the methods that she used and how Chen Feng restrained her abilities.

In Ivanovna’s eyes, Chen Feng would definitely die in her hands as long as she released this mysterious soul attack.

But now…

Not only did Chen Feng not die, but he was also still alive and well.

Ivanovna, on the other hand, had suffered a terrible backlash when her special attack did not work.

She spat out a mouthful of blood. Her internal organs had suffered the brunt of the impact.

Compared to the physical damage that she sustained, her soul had suffered more terrifying damage.

Just now…a fifth of her soul was torn off!

She had just walked through the gates of hell. Ivanovna would already be dead if she was a little unluckier or if Chen Feng’s soul was slightly stronger.

“No…no…”

Ivanovna felt a splitting headache. If she had not gone through so many years of inhumane training as an agent, she would have fainted from the pain in her body and soul.

“In this state…I cannot continue fighting…”

Her eyes were unusually bloodshot.

A ferocious expression formed on her face, which always had a charming smile on it.

“Chen Feng, I will remember you! Chen Feng!”

She kept repeating Chen Feng’s name. It was as if she wanted to carve his name deep into her heart.

Then, her body turned into a soft white mist and slowly disappeared.

The entire [Ghost Spirit Domain] disappeared together with her.

...

“Is it over?”

Chen Feng mumbled. The surrounding mist gradually dissipated to reveal the original appearance of the forest.

Black thorny trees surrounded him.

Park Yunmo continued wrapping himself in a shield made entirely of sand.

Not far away, Chen Feng saw Sakurai Longzi and Blake under a tree. They had passed out.

Blake had already transformed back into his human form. He seemed to be foaming at the mouth. This made Chen Feng wonder if he had been knocked unconscious by someone, or if he had fainted from shock while he was in his bear form…

“Come out, you’re hidden. Ivanovna is gone.”

Chen Feng spoke to them in an exasperated tone. Only then did Park Yunmo shakily disable his gravel shield.

He was afraid of Chen Feng instead of their opponents.

The energy waves that Chen Feng emitted from his body were way too terrifying. Pu Yunmo was afraid that he would be affected by Chen Feng’s attack and end up dying in the hands of his teammate. That would be way too unjust… He wouldn’t even know who to reason with after arriving in hell.

Chen Feng carried out a thorough check and realized that Ivanovna was indeed gone.

Meanwhile, he discovered something under a tree not far away.

He found the corpses of three Awakened Ones.

“This is…”

Chen Feng’s pupils constricted when he saw the three figures.

If he did not recall wrongly, he had seen these three people before.

And…

The three of them were on the same team as Ivanovna!

In other words, the three victims were also from the [Hunter Group]. They belonged to the same team as Ivanovna.

“They died here…”

After Chen Feng thought about it for a moment, he realized that only one of the possibilities were the most convincing——

Ivanovna had killed them!

“Is she crazy? Why would she kill her own teammates?”

Pu Yunmo shouted out in confusion.

To him, this was a completely unreasonable action.

“Aren’t they from the same team? Why would she do something like that?”

Pu Yunmo continued chattering.

Chen Feng shook his head.

“Ivanovna has her own purpose of doing things. If she did not kill her teammates, she might not have been able to set up the [Ghost Spirit Domain] so quickly!”

“What do you mean?” Park Yunmo asked curiously.

“If you want to activate such a powerful talent, you need to be prepared and pay a price. The price of activating the [Ghost Spirit Domain] is similar to a ritual.”

“In this ritual, she must sacrifice something…like the lives of her teammates!”

These were Chen Feng’s own guesses. He was able to come up with an analysis after combining it with the rumors that he had heard from his previous life.

He still remembered a report from his previous life.

More than a hundred people died in a small village near the location where Ivanovna battled other powerhouses.

Back then, people suspected that the killings in the village were committed by a monster that appeared from the catacombs. However, things like that kept happening wherever Ivanovna went.

Gradually, people started to suspect that a monster might not have killed all the villagers.

It was Ivanovna!

She had to pay the price if she wanted to unleash her ability, which was so fatal that it was just like a glitch in the system.

The said price or sacrifice could be the lives of hundreds of ordinary people or a few high-level Awakened Ones.

In short, Ivanovna had taken countless human lives.

Pu Yunmo kept cursing. He really could not understand the existence of such a person.

Regardless of everything, today’s outcome was not all that bad.

About ten minutes later, both Sakurai and Blake woke up. The fact that not a single member of Chen Feng’s team had died in this battle was worth celebrating.

They even found many [Barrow’s Souls] in the backpacks of Ivanovna’s teammates.

“There are…seventeen here!”

“Coupled with what we collected from killing the [Frenzied Tree Spirit], we are not far from our desired target!”
