Looking up at the sky, Alex was all alone, facing dozens of Human Butchers, his figure appearing as weak, isolated, and powerless as an ant.
Every person present could not help but be moved by this scene, unable to resist silently praying in their hearts.
"The Human Butcher, is he very formidable?" Alex narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a moment before a cold smile hooked at the corners of his mouth.
"I have seen enough of these living corpse tricks."
"As long as I freeze you all entirely, then in front of a hero’s iron fists, the Human Butcher and that trash Tiger Ancestor have absolutely no difference."
"Freeze!" Blue light condensed in Alex’s hands as he waved them toward the dozens of Human Butchers.
After obtaining the Profound Ice Spirit Core, the freezing divine ability he executed was practically foolproof, never once failing, but at this very moment, facing these dozens of Human Butchers, before they even made a move, he felt a wave of powerlessness.
The bone-chilling ice layer had just formed when one of the Human Butchers symbolically swung the butcher knife in his hand.
Only a crisp crack was heard, and the ice layer was instantly shattered, breaking Alex’s offensive.
"What?!" Alex’s pupils shrank abruptly, and for a moment, he was somewhat at a loss.
Before he could react, four Human Butchers had already charged forward simultaneously, launching a pincer attack from all four directions.
The formidable aspect of the Nether Earth Soul Chase Technique lay in the fact that the summoned departed souls retained their absolute peak strength from when they were alive.
When alive, the Human Butcher had not yet become a Saint, but like Alex, he was only one step away from proving his Dao, and his strength had long reached the Saint level.
Facing the siege of four Saint-level powerhouses, the already extremely weakened Alex fundamentally lacked the power to resist.
In just the span of a few breaths, he had been struck by several consecutive knife slashes.
If not for the Divine Wood Starry Sky Armor, he would probably have long been reduced to a departed soul under their blades.
"Bastards, to actually summon these rule-breaking monsters..." Alex secretly gritted his teeth, a rare sense of panic arising in his heart.
Suddenly, a Human Butcher teleported right in front of him.
The butcher knife in his hand violently expanded several times in size as he swung it down, Alex’s heart tightened, he hurriedly slammed his arms together, using the Wood Leaf Spirit Shield to resist.
The Wood Leaf Spirit Shield was the strongest defense of the Divine Wood Starry Sky Armor, having once parried a full-force strike from the Heavenly Fiend Ghost King, but at this moment, facing the Human Butcher’s killing intent, the shield was actually struggling to resist, and dense cracks began appearing on it.
"Crap!" Alex’s expression changed, and he hurriedly knocked the Human Butcher back with a swing of his arm.
"The Divine Wood Starry Sky Armor will not hold on!"
If he lost this precious armor, Alex would naturally feel incredible heartache, but compared to heartache, his situation was far more severe, he was only able to put up a stubborn resistance under the pincer attack entirely thanks to the margin provided by the armor.
If the battle armor shattered, he would tragically die under the opponents’ butcher knives within seconds.
Promptly, Alex did not dare rely entirely on the armor anymore, he immediately sat cross-legged in the void, as motionless as an old monk in deep meditation, entering the state of the Immovable Lord.
The Immovable Lord dharma idol burst forth, and the body-protecting divine dragon appeared along with it, instantly shocking the four Human Butchers into taking a step back.
The Nether Earth Ghost King slightly raised his chin and smiled playfully. "Trying to play the cowardly turtle to delay time again?"
"Good, I want to see just how long you can last!"
He raised his index and middle fingers, controlling them with a shift of his mind.
Ten more Human Butchers charged forward, surrounding Alex in a circle, they continuously and expressionlessly swung their butcher knives, using formidable killing intent to viciously ravage the Immovable Lord dharma idol’s defense.
Facing these butchers with Saint-level strength, the previously invincible body-protecting divine dragon also appeared insignificant and powerless.
It spewed out clusters of scorching dragon breath, trying to protect Alex, but the surrounding Human Butchers only focused on destroying his defenses, completely ignoring its attacks.
The self-healing ability of their Netherworld bodies allowed them to instantly recover even if half their bodies were burned away by the dragon breath.
Realizing it could not protect its master, the body-protecting divine dragon let out a despairing mournful cry, seeing this scene, Alex’s heart also felt incredibly heavy.
In the past, whenever Alex used the Immovable Lord dharma idol, it was with a playful attitude, blocking enemy attacks while teasing and toying with his opponents.
But at this very moment, he was truly forced to maintain the state, completely unable to move an inch.
Once he made the slightest movement, causing the dharma idol to dispel and the divine dragon to vanish, he would undoubtedly be instantly destroyed, his soul scattering and flying away.
Seeing this scene, Roland on the side could not help but look anxious, his face turning ashen.
Although he wanted to rush up and help, the Nether Earth Ghost King had long been on guard against him, specifically arranging four Human Butchers to watch him, rendering him unable to make the slightest move.
As an elder who had existed since ten thousand years ago, he had naturally heard of the terrifying legend of the Human Butcher.
At the same time, Roland was very clear that with his own abilities, he would not be a match for even one Human Butcher, let alone four.
Just as Roland was fraught with worry and extreme anxiety, yet at a complete loss for what to do, Alex’s voice suddenly echoed in his ears.
"Hero Roland, leave me be!"
