Chapter 288 Dying Words
Karl stood at the highest point.
Silently, he looked down upon the entire island, observing everything from a god's perspective.

Seas of fire raged fiercely, spreading rapidly with howling winds, as the explosion just moments ago set ablaze a sea of flames dozens of feet high, like a fiery beast devouring everything around it!
"Ha, ha..."
Atop the cliff, Byrne's eyes bled as he trembled and knelt on the ground.
With all his strength, he had barely managed to transfer the people of the Fischer family beyond the reach of the fiery explosion to the cliff.
The view from the cliff was wide, suitable for the use of abilities with a vision-based range limit.
In his stomach were the Delicious Snacks he had consumed in advance, and the Hymn Verse applied before the battle; meanwhile, Theo and Christine, from afar, were also contributing, continuously restoring Byrne's Spiritual Power through the "household management" ability.
"I pray to you..."
When the massive explosion and flames had engulfed them, Lilian had already taken out the sacred object to pray, and she had not stopped even now.
"Don't use it!" Darren, who had sworn to protect his sister in earlier years, immediately shouted.
Lilian hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.
And in that life-and-death moment just now, Yeager had fearlessly activated his "Commander" ability, giving Chris an "Issue Command" to strengthen his power once again.
After being transferred, he immediately imposed a "Targeted Strike" on the High Priest Sky Blue, his eyes filled with seriousness and excitement.
"It's not over yet?"
The High Priest Sky Blue's gaze turned toward them, realizing they were not dead and had suddenly Instantaneously Transferred far away.
"Chris!"
Byrne suddenly roared, wanting to cast "Horn of Destruction" on Chris, but he was just too spent, with his Spiritual Power still in recovery.
The slightly restored Spiritual Power was only enough for one last "Instantaneous Transfer."
Chris, who also had the Hymn Verse, Bravery Verse, and Delicious Snacks' enhancements, waited silently for the right moment to strike.
They could Instantaneously Transfer such a great distance?
"Dark Blue, it's your turn to attack!"
The High Priest Sky Blue frowned slightly, secretly activating a Forbidden rare artifact that could temporarily boost the power of Bloodline, decisively sacrificing ten years of life to emanate an even stronger lethality around him.
And at that moment, Byrne suddenly collapsed unconscious, unable to move, while using his last Spiritual Power to abruptly place Chris right in front of the High Priest Sky Blue!
As Chris approached, the High Priest Sky Blue also retreated.
"You indeed came!"
The High Priest Sky Blue reacted swiftly, retreating and extending a hand toward Chris, as Sage Dark Blue within him also activated his Bloodline power.
However,
time seemed to stand still.
An invisible force covered everything around, and the High Priest Sky Blue, who was still retreating, suddenly couldn't move, his eyes still filled with vigilance.
Chris made a quick judgment; the fiery clouds were a very long-range strike, and that hidden Monarch powerful expert was at a great distance, not enveloped by the time stop.
He could still sense the invisible toxic mist surrounding the High Priest Sky Blue; before he had moved in, the High Priest Sky Blue had already preemptively enveloped himself with the invisible virulent fog!
To touch his body, he would have to immerse himself in the poison mist.
And Chris detected something different; the poison mist might have been released forcefully by the High Priest Sky Blue, and combining his sense of smell with knowledge of monsters, he judged that its toxicity was even stronger than the poison from the Cyan Blue Priests earlier.
It could even kill a Monarch powerful expert in a short period of time!
"..."
Chris's eyes were indifferent as he plunged into the poison mist without hesitation.
The blade's light in his hand flickered like a shooting star across the night sky, fast and agile, winding and twisting. As the blade danced, his figure seemed like a phantom, flickering uncertainly, as if the blade's light had become an extension of life!
From the beginning to the end, he was looking at a dead man!
Chris, having become a "Demon-Hunting Master," could feel that those with Bloodline power were essentially mutating themselves, turning into half mysterious creatures or beings.
I can hunt them!
Gaining power and characteristics also means acquiring corresponding weaknesses.
He could determine the source of the High Priest Sky Blue's Bloodline, clearly knowing what its abilities and weaknesses were.
So Chris knew for sure that the other was as good as dead.
His attacks had a "Lethality" effect on low-level Monarch Extraordinary Exponents, making the High Priest Sky Blue's recovery abilities completely ineffective!
The hidden Monarch powerful expert was not idling; he launched another terrifying red fiery cloud that fell from the sky to Strike the people of the Fischer family on the cliff from a distance.
Having accumulated enough power in a short span, it pressed down overwhelmingly. Yeager's expression changed drastically as he looked up, unable to help but speak.
"This is bad!"
Darren immediately shouted, "You just support Chris, don't mind anything else!"
At the first second, Chris made contact with the poison mist.
At the second second, he felt his breathing constricted, clearly knowing that the toxin had spread throughout his body.
At the third second, his body showed obvious signs of decay, his face ashen.
At the same time, Darren unleashed the Black Tide with all his might, the powerful black force surging into the sky like a tidal wave, barely holding off many of the searing flames from the massive fiery cloud!
