Chapter 4555 The Sneak Attack
Even as he spoke, ck runes continued to stream from Humphrey''s hands, spreading over the
surface of the giant egg and attempting to prate the shell.
There was a look ofcency in Humphrey''s ferocious eyes.
He let out a roar ofughter,
which echoed wildly throughout the space.
Austin watched the egg. It was emitting enormous amounts of energy andw power, resisting the
attempts of the ck runes to infiltrate it.
The fierce sh of energy between the giant egg and the probing runes caused the tform in the air
to shake violently.
It was clear that the egg did not intend to surrender without a fight.
After all, the members of the chaotic sky-devouring beast race had been proud and self-respecting.
It was said that a chaotic sky-devouring beast even dared provoke a god of chaos.
Now, although the egg was besieged, it would not meekly allow itself to be devoured.
Austin inched closer, and heard indistinct soundsing from the giant egg.
''I must stop Humphrey,'' he thought.
''If I just stand by and watch him sessfully devour this giant egg, there would be a sharp and
immediate increase in his level of strength.
At that point, I would lose any chance I have to defeat him.''
With that, Austin immediately took action.
He focused, andunched his first attack:
the fearsome Mind Sword Skill.
Silently, a rain of invisible mind swords sliced one after another into Humphrey''s body.
Austin''s cultivation base of mind power was incredibly strong. Given his current power, even a
governing god would be unable to withstand the attack he had unleashed using the Mind Sword Skill.
Humphrey was rxed, all his attention on the huge egg.
He continuously used his secret skill to try to devour it. Despite the egg''s resistance, he was certain he
would infiltrate the egg sooner orter.
As far as Humphrey knew, there was no one else in this area except for himself and the chaotic sky-
devouring beast egg. They were alone in this space.
Thus, he ignored everything around him as he concentrated on dealing with the egg.
He was entirely unaware of Austin''s presence.
Every now and then he paused and let out a bark ofughter,
for he was very pleased with this turn of events.
He felt a growing sense of anticipation and excitement. Once he seeded in devouring this giant egg,
his strength would increase hundredfold, or maybe even thousandfold.
It would be extremely beneficial to his development.
He was confident that after he devoured the chaotic sky-devouring beast egg, half of his injuries would
quickly heal.
Humphrey thought that, with the aid of this egg, he would be able to return to his peak state in the
future.
But he was celebrating too soon.
Right at that moment, as he congratted himself on his triumph,
he felt the sting of thousands of mind swords piercing his body.

Simultaneously, Austin shed forward,
appearing behind Humphrey in less than a second.
Austin and his two avatars arrived at the same time.
Together, they roared,
"Go to hell!"
Their deep, rumbling voices shook the fabric of the space.
With blinding speed,
they began executing a series of moves, disying a seemingly infinite variety of secret martial arts
skills.
They used the Omnipotent Bodily Skill, the secret spiritual soul skills, the energy of swordsmanship,
thew of time, thew of space, and thew of reincarnation, among others.
This barrage of energy andws crashed into Humphrey without warning, like a great river that battered
him ceaselessly.
Austin soon switched his focus to the Reincarnation Sword Skill,
a techniqueposed of nine moves,
which could send time and space into chaos.
His every move was swift and terrifying.
Booms resounded in the void as Humphrey was overwhelmed by the attacks.
A massive amount of energy,ws, and sword-light swept over him before he could defend himself.
Humphrey was outraged and bewildered at the same time. He had believed he was safe alone in this
empty space, and had never expected such a powerful opponent to appear out of nowhere and attack
him.
Energy crackled and exploded,
as Humphrey was thrown backwards by the force of the attacks.
Humphrey let out a scream,
feeling a surge of pain in his body.
Blood gushed out from numerous wounds as his skin was sliced and pierced.
Some of the attacks cut so deep into his flesh that bone could be seen through the torn muscle.
He groaned in agony.
More and more blood spilled from his body.
And it was not over yet.
With an earsplitting crack, Humphrey''s left arm was torn off.
He screamed again as, with another crack, his other arm was ripped away, sent flying into the distance.
He stumbled backwards, armless,
and with a bang,
he went flying out of the tform.
Humphrey caught a glimpse of his attacker. "Austin!"
he bellowed. "It''s you!
How is this possible?
How could you be here?
Why are you doing this to me?"
He let out another groan of agony. "How is this possible?" he repeated. "I can''t believe it!
You despicable creature!"
Humphrey had been thrown out of the tform, but he quickly steadied his injured body, floating in the
air and staring at Austin with hatred and resentment in his eyes.
The ragged stumps on his shoulders trembled as he grew out new arms.
Because Humphrey had the body of a chaotic sky-devouring beast, he had incredible defensive
abilities.
The rapid wave of attacks had hurt him,
but it was virtually impossible to kill him.
Indeed, Austin had inflicted only moderate injuries upon Humphrey—enough to cause him great pain,
but not enough to seriously or permanently damage his body.
Humphrey was furious.
"Austin, you deserve to die!" he roared angrily,
his voice echoing towards the sky. He was infuriated at Austin''s sneak attack and determined to get his
revenge.
A strong aura began emanating from Humphrey,
and tremors rippled across the void.
With startling speed,
Humphrey''s body began to expand and deform.
In an instant, he had grown into a giant,
and taken on the form of a beast.
He opened his massive, cavernous mouth, and it looked as vast and terrifying as a bloody sky.
''Is this the chaotic sky-devouring beast egg?'' Austin thought,
his gaze falling on the giant egg.
Standing this close to the egg, he could appreciate the enormity of its size.
He felt like a dwarf next to the giant egg.
So this was the egg of the chaotic sky-devouring beast, a legendary fearsome beast!
Austin hadn''t expected to find not one but two chaotic sky-devouring beast eggs on this tform.
Nearby, he could see the scattered pieces of broken eggshells. These fragments had lost their
spirituality.
Austin realized that they were the remnants of the egg that had been devoured by Humphrey.
"Save me."
Austin was stunned.
"You want me to save you?" he said to the egg.
He was surprised to discover that this giant egg already contained a consciousness that could
If that was the case, then it wouldn''t be long before the chaotic sky-devouring beast hatched from the
egg.
"How can I save you?" he asked, even as Humphrey''s enormous, beast-shaped shadow loomed over
them.
If there was a chance to save the chaotic sky-devouring beast, of course Austin was determined to try.
He couldn''t bear the thought of leaving the baby beast to be devoured by Humphrey.
"Just take me away!" said the voice immediately.
Instantly, the egg rose into the air,
and floated towards Austin.
"Stop!" bellowed Humphrey.
"This giant egg belongs to me. If you dare steal it, I will not stop until I destroy you!"
Humphrey''s rage increased as he realized that Austin had formed some kind of connection with the
egg.
He flew forward,
soaring towards the tform at an impressive speed,
until his giant beast form was the only thing Austin could see.
But Austin was not afraid.
Instead, he chuckled.
