This Curse Is Just Awesome Chapter 274

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

A period of life was like a burning candle.

Although it was not bright, it could be swayed for a long time.

However, if its ‘life' was compressed into one second, even a humble candle would be able to emit a dazzling light.

…

Rumble…

The dark clouds, the sky, and the earth were dyed the color of fire at this moment.

The dispersing pressure directly flipped Chen Yu over several times.

“Cough…”

After vomiting a lump of blood, Chen Yu clutched his stomach and staggered to his feet. He looked at the pillar of fire that extended to the sky in front of him, and his eyes lost their focus.

What kind of power was life?

To be able to make a mere Level 2 martial artist bloom with such a resplendent radiance..

“Brother Yu.”

Within the pillar of fire, the young girl turned her head, revealing an exquisite face covered in fine lines. “Back in Tang City, you once told me that even if I didn't miss in the College Entrance Exam finals, I wouldn't be able to win against you.”

“…Yes.”

“Do you still think so now?”

“I was too arrogant.”

Straightening his waist, Chen Yu tried his best to ease the pain in his abdomen. He raised his longsword. “But the top scorer from back then was mine no matter what.”

“Why?”

“Because after you torture yourself to death, the top scorer will be postponed.”

Bahuang Yao: “…”

Shua!

Swinging his sword and finding a comfortable fighting posture, Chen Yu stepped forward and stood beside the fire pillar of Bahuang Yao. “Today, let's have another match.”

“What match?”

The corners of Chen Yu's mouth curled up, and he suddenly charged at the Level 6 exotic beast not far away. “Let's see who dies first!”

Dong!

The explosive force pushed Chen Yu forward!

The sharp longsword was aimed straight at the exotic beast's throat.

“Roar!”

The eyes of the Level 6 exotic beast glowed with a bright red light. It didn't wait any longer and stretched out its arm to grab at the edge of the sword.

Puchi!

The longsword, which was augmented by the space slicer, pierced through the palm of the exotic beast cleanly.

However, the exotic beast didn't seem to feel any pain. It directly used its penetrating palm to grab Chen Yu's wrist that was holding the sword.

It squeezed hard!

Kacha!

The entire fist was shattered in an instant.

Fresh blood mixed with sharp bone fragments converged into a lump of meat paste that looked like a smoothie.

The intense pain that penetrated deep into his soul made Chen Yu's face turn pale in an instant.

[Injured: Qi and Blood +4787]

Zhi —

The gorilla grinned and revealed an anthropomorphic smile. It raised its other arm and mercilessly struck Chen Yu's heart.

The force of the punch was so heavy that even the air was scraped with a sharp whistle!

Kacha!

In a split second, Chen Yu decisively broke his wrist, and slide shovel passed through the groin of the exotic beast. Then, he used all the strength in his body to ruthlessly smash into the groin of the exotic beast!

Dong!

The Level 6 gorilla's body trembled, and its face contorted for a moment.

However, its powerful pain tolerance made it instantly sober up. Without any hesitation, it fell backward.

It tried to press Chen Yu under its body.

At this moment, Bahuang Yao happened to appear. With a powerful side kick, it sent the beast's strong body flying more than ten meters like a rubber ball!

Boom!

It smashed through the asphalt pavement, leaving a deep hole the size of half a basketball court.

“This damage…” Chen Yu narrowed his eyes. “It's almost Level 5.”

“Brother Yu, are you alright?”

“Don't worry about me.” He picked up the dagger and quickly cut off the rotten flesh on his wrist. “Take this opportunity to suppress it!”

Nodding her head, Bahuang Yao, who was shrouded in flames, did not say anything else. In a few flashes, she appeared above the pit. Her muscles tensed up as she gathered all her strength!

“Martial Art — Bahuang Secret Art — Bahuang Zhen!”

Dong!

Her slender arm gently landed in the pit.

Dong —

With a muffled sound, the ground within a few hundred meters around Bahuang Yao suddenly bulged!

Boom!

Another explosion occurred.

The surrounding buildings, trees, street lamps, and roads were all shaken into ruins.

Pu…

The fluctuation that surged up from the ground touched the wound on Chen Yu's abdomen, causing him to vomit another mouthful of blood.

“D*mn it.”

“It must be a rib inserted into my stomach.”

Wiping off the blood at the corner of his mouth, Chen Yu picked up the longsword that had fallen to the ground. He did not bother to heal and immediately joined the battle.

“Roar!”

The exotic beast roared. It used its shoulder to block the young girl's fist and slowly stood up.

All the hair on its body had been burnt to ashes.

Blood also flowed out of its nostrils, eyes, and ears.

However, its combat strength didn't seem to have suffered too heavy a loss. With just a single punch, it had sent Bahuang Yao high into the sky.

“Die!”

Following that, taking advantage of the beast's inability to retract its punch, Chen Yu rushed forward and swept through the entire army. He cleanly cut off one of the enemy's arms.

After being heavily injured, the gorilla wasn't angry. Instead, it was happy. It stretched out its other intact arm and grabbed Chen Yu, who was just inches away from it, with a vicious swing!

Pa!

The high-speed swing shattered all of Chen Yu's clothes, leaving only the BB motherboard that was still firmly tied to his body.

The instantaneous acceleration also caused Chen Yu's consciousness to go into a trance for a moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the exotic beast used the momentum of the swing to exert force on its heel, twist its waist, and throw Chen Yu! It threw Chen Yu onto the ground!

Crack!

Crack…

A series of bone-rattling sounds that caused one's scalp to go numb could be heard.

A ‘木' shaped pit appeared on the ground.

“Roar!”

The gorilla howled excitedly. It stepped forward and crushed half of Chen Yu's pelvis. Then, it gathered its strength for a quarter of a second and ferociously smashed at the back of Chen Yu's head.

But at this moment, a sharp blade pierced through Chen Yu's back, piercing through the exotic beast's left shoulder like a piece of tofu.

It turned out that Chen Yu had used his own body as a cover, using a sword to pierce the human and beast into a skewer.

With its shoulder injured, the exotic beast's accumulated strength immediately dissipated. However, before it could do anything, Chen Yu, who was beneath it, twisted his wrist and pulled hard!

Puchi!

The blade moved horizontally.

He directly cut open his own abdomen.

At the same time, it also cut off the exotic beast's arm. Only a strip of flesh was left connected to it…

“Roar–“

The gorilla howled in pain.

“Hehehe…”

Chen Yu, however, laughed maniacally.

Dong!

Following that, Bahuang Yao that descended from the sky struck the top of the exotic beast's head with a kick.

Kacha!

The exotic beast's neck was horribly bent, and it was deeply ‘pressed' into the pit by this enormous force.

There was no more movement…

“Brother Yu.”

“Don't touch me. My internal organs will fall out.”

“Brother Yu…”

Seeing Chen Yu in the pool of blood, Bahuang Yao's eyes were blurry and clear.

That was because the tears that had just formed were evaporated by the scorching heat around her.

“Why are you crying? Aren't you going to die sooner or later?”

Chen Yu was in good spirits. “It's just that I look a little miserable. Quick, drag me away. I suspect that the gorilla will come out from my position.”

“Okay.”

Wiping away her non-existent tears from the corner of her eyes, the young girl dragged Chen Yu's shoulder as if she was dragging a pile of rotten meat. She slowly moved backward.

“Can you not get so close? Don't you know that your body is on fire? My hair is burning.”

“Ah…”

“Are your clothes made of alloy? You can't burn them even if you burn them?”

“Ah…”

“Hiss, that's weird. Every single one of your clothes has this option. I'm the only one who runs around naked every time I fight.”

“Ah…”

“Stop it, hurry up! When the exotic beast comes up… Don't! Slow down, slow down… it's hurting my kidneys, it hurts…”

Dong… Boom!

When Chen Yu was pushed a few meters away.

As he had expected, the Level 6 exotic beast really charged out from that position!

The force it exerted was so fierce that it directly flew dozens of meters high.

“Xiao Yao.” Raising his head and looking up into the sky, Chen Yu asked, “How much longer do you have?”

Bahuang Yao was silent for a moment. “Forty seconds.”

Chen Yu: “I'll just lie here. Do you believe that I can live for eight to ten years?”

Bahuang Yao: “…”

“But at least I have to die first.” Chen Yu's expression returned to calm. He tugged at the girl's clothes and stood up with one leg. “No matter what, I have to fight for first place! This is my martial path.”

Bahuang Yao: “…Brother Yu, have you never been sad?”

Chen Yu did not answer. Instead, he drew his sword and pointed it at the falling Level 6 exotic beast. “Martial artists, we're brave! I'm not even afraid of death, so why the f*ck would I be sad? There's still more than thirty seconds left. At the very least, I have to kill it and bury it with us!”

Padah.

Chen Yu: “…”

Bahuang Yao: “Brother Yu, half of your kidney has fallen out.”

Chen Yu lowered his head and looked at his open abdomen. He shook his head and said, “It's fine. Don't worry about it. It's here!”

“Roar!”

As Chen Yu got closer and closer, the exotic beast tilted its neck and let out a deafening roar,

“Ha ha!!”

Chen Yu also roared furiously. Ignoring the intense pain in his body, he exploded with energy. Holding his sword, he leaped into the sky with one leg!

“Roar!”

“Ha!”

“Roar!!!”

“Ha!!!”

Clang —

The long sword was the first to pierce into the exotic beast's mouth.

However, the reaction speed of the Level 6 exotic beast was beyond imagination. The moment the sword entered the mouth, it twisted the direction of its head.

Puchi.

Chen Yu's sword pierced through the side of the gorilla.

Puchi.

The teeth of the exotic beast bit through Chen Yu's neck.

“Opportunity… Opportunity…” Chen Yu seemed to have blocked the pain as he shouted these two words from his mouth that was spewing out blood like a fountain.

“Martial Technique — Bahuang Secret Technique –“

As he choked, Bahuang Yao's face contorted in pain as she shouted at the top of her lungs, “Punch!”

Puchi —

The flames that enveloped her skinny body pierced through the chest of the beast amidst the flying pieces of flesh, internal organs, and broken bones.

“Gu.”

The eyes of the exotic beast bulged, and its muscles went out of control.

The blood that was swallowed into its mouth, on the other hand, stimulated the ferocity of the beast even more. It actually began to shake its head vigorously, attempting to bite off Chen Yu's neck, as well as his entire spine.

“F*ck!”

Chen Yu's eyes were filled with viciousness as well. He raised his wrist, which was gradually losing control, and stabbed the longsword into the back of the exotic beast, stirring it crazily.

Dong!

Finally…

A man and a beast fell from the sky.

Thick smoke and dust were stirred up.

The extra strength allowed the exotic beast to successfully bite off half of Chen Yu's neck.

And Chen Yu had also successfully cut off half of the exotic beast's body.

[Damage received: Blood and Qi +20,567]

[Damage received: Blood and Qi +23,606]

[Blood and Qi +25,012; +27,993; +31…]

The monotonous electronic synthesizer echoed in his ears.

Waves of surging and endless life force were augmented.

However, the world in Chen Yu's eyes became more and more blurry…

‘I guessed it right.'

Chen Yu's thoughts began to wander.

‘Even if there is a curse, as long as one suffers a heavy injury that can not be recovered, they will die…'

‘Eh?'

‘…'

“The sky seems to be bright…”

…

“That is… the scene of the eighth acupoint being opened by the Bahuang clan.”

In the sky above the floating capital.

Qinghai Li only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze. He continued to control the city to rise, and the speed became faster and faster.

When he was about 1,000 meters up, Qinghai Li's forehead was already covered in sweat.

“Roar –“

The Level 9 gorilla looked at the shadow in the sky and suddenly opened its huge mouth. It charged up a ball of pure white energy and wanted to blow the city down.

“Martial Art — Ring Shift!”

Qinghai Li pressed his palms together for the third time and urged the capital city to fly to the top of the beast's head. Then, he suddenly opened his arms.

Whoosh —

Under the pull of gravity, the city fell rapidly!

The air pressure created was so strong that even a Level 8 martial artist was knocked down.

The Level 9 beast below stared with red eyes. It decisively gave up on charging and turned around to escape.

“In your dreams.”

With a cold smile, Qinghai Li closed his eyes, and his long robe fluttered in the wind.

Then his pure black short hair turned white at a visible speed.

His young face also aged rapidly…

Boom — Boom —

The huge capital seemed to have started a planetary engine in an instant! While falling, he chased after the Level 9 beast.

“Roar!!”

Realizing that it couldn't escape, the gorilla roared angrily.

“Let's end it.”

Qinghai Li turned back and looked at the familiar capital city behind him. A smile of vicissitudes of life appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“May mankind live forever…”

“Martial Arts — Ring Lock.”

Buzz —

But a loud metallic buzz was heard.

Below the capital city and above the ground, two spatial isolation layers suddenly appeared. It prevented the entire city from crashing into the ground.

With the mass of the entire capital city, if it were to fall from a thousand meters above the ground, the explosive force of the impact would instantly break the continental plate, causing a global disaster.

Tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions…

Without the need for the exotic beasts to act personally, humans would be annihilated within a day.

“Roar!”

The eyes of the Level 9 exotic beast were about to crack. It knew that there was no hope for it to escape. It immediately waved its arms, tearing the space into pieces, and fled into the void in a sorry state.

“…”

“…”

Rumble!

The next moment, the capital fell to the ground, stirring up smoke and dust in all directions

On the city wall.

Qinghai Li used up his last bit of energy. He stopped breathing in the air before he fell.

Plop!

The female assistant jumped into the sky and hugged the old man's body.

His skin was still warm from the touch of her fingers.

“…”

After a moment of silence, the female assistant raised her head and looked at the sky.

The dark clouds had dispersed.

The sky seemed to have brightened…

…

[Body death.]

[Special curse activated.]

[Curse effect: After ‘A' dies, ‘B' is resurrected.]

[Activation failed!]

[‘B' is not dead.]

[Curse cannot be activated…]

[…]

Smoke and dust slowly fell.

In the shallow pit, there was a human, a beast, and two figures lying down.

The beast was still twitching and was not dead.

The human figure had already stopped breathing.

Plop.

Bahuang Yao staggered down from the sky and looked at that person at the first moment.

In an instant, tears welled up in her eyes.

Even the scorching heat did not have time to evaporate it completely…

“Brother Yu…”

The girl's voice was hoarse as she dragged her heavy footsteps towards that figure.

As she walked, the pillar of fire disappeared.

Her strength dissipated.

Her footsteps became more and more unsteady.

The girl could feel that death was right in front of her eyes.

And that man was also right in front of her eyes.

“Pu…”

She was exhausted.

The girl collapsed to the ground, but her large eyes were still staring intently at Chen Yu.

No matter if she was alive or dead…

In this world, everyone had their own belief.

It was unknown when it started, but the young girl's belief had shifted from her father, from her family, from proving herself, to that person…

“Brother Yu…”

She slightly opened her cracked lips. Before her strength completely disappeared, she tried her best to crawl and move toward the goal in her heart.

Ten meters.

Five meters.

One meter…

Time passed by minute by minute. At the same time, it continuously took away the young girl's life force.

Her vision turned black.

But she knew that Chen Yu was right in front of her.

His breathing had stopped.

But she knew clearly that the remaining nutrients in her cells could hold on for a few more seconds.

Her sense of taste.

Her sense of smell.

Her sense of hearing.

All of them quickly disappeared.

Only the remaining sense of touch was still transmitting information to her brain.

“Brother Yu…”

“Brother Yu…”

“…”

“Brother Yu…”

Pa.

Finally…

Her slender arm drooped weakly.

In the end, she did not touch Chen Yu's skin.

Even Chen Yu's fingers were only a few centimeters away from her…

Hu —

A breeze blew past, lifting the girl's hair.

In the world, a voice that no one else could hear except Chen Yu echoed.

[Body death.]

[Special curse activating…]
