    Duane''s tension grew even tighter, and he immediately decided to head to the battlefield of the two men.  He took Shirley with him and rushed to the street where David was located.


    On the other side, Mandy continued to fiercely battle the moltenva tiger.  As David''s level reached nine, Mandy''s strength also surpassed the ninth level, and her own prowess was enough to overwhelm any opponent.


    However, considering that Mandy was made of straw, Davidmanded her not to directly confront the moltenva tiger but instead to keep entangling with it.  Even so, arge portion of the straw on Mandy''s body was burned off by the ferocious attacks of the moltenva tiger, but it did not affect her fighting capabilities.


    Taking advantage of this moment, David reached Alvin''s presence.  He held only the de of Space in his hand, but the aura emanating from his body was enough to overwhelm everything around him.


    Seeing David charging once again, Alvin showed no sign of retreat and swung his cane towards him.  "ng!"  The crisp sound of metal colliding rang out, apanied by a series of never-ending sparks exploding on this street.


    David was determined to kill, while Alvin exuded a thick aura of murder.  The two continuously swung their weapons at each other''s weak points.  However, despite Alvin''s formidable fire-based abilities, his eighth-level rank slightly paled inparison to David''s ninth-level strength.


    During the attacks, Alvin continuously manipted the moltenva on his cane to assault David''s body.  However, unbeknownst to Alvin, David had a gilded defensiveyer protecting him.  As soon as theva made contact with him, the defenseyer emitted a faint golden light, blocking the attack.


    This astonished Alvin!  He hadn''t expected this young man''s physical defense to be so terrifying that even his Abyssal Lava couldn''t prate it.  Helplessly, Alvin could only rely on theva and fire to defend himself continuously.


    But David''s determination to kill him had already solidified.  Each swing of the de of Space became more ruthless than thest!  Critical hits were constantly triggered by David, and his attacks repeatedly shattered Alvin''s defensiveva.  Alvin quickly retreated, attempting to create distance between them.


    In that moment, Alvin truly realized the terror of David''s strength.  Gasping heavily for breath, bloodstains already faintly visible on his robe, David''s expression remained emotionless.  Without giving Alvin a chance to catch his breath, David directly opened a portal in space and charged towards him once again!


    Alvin, who hadn''t recovered his breath, saw David''s figure sh before him once more and immediately lost hisposure!  He weakly raised his cane, attempting to block the de of Space as David shed down from above.  However, he underestimated the power of David''s attack.  With a "crack" sound!


    David forcefully severed Alvin''s cane, the de crossing his chest, causing arge amount of blood to spray out.  Alvin felt as if his hands were bearing the weight of ten thousand pounds, and he stumbled and fell to the ground.  "Puh!"  A mouthful of blood sprayed from his mouth.  As he looked at the fallen Alvin, David''s eyes were filled with disdain.


    "A killer must pay with their life.  I''ve taken the revenge of the butterfly father and daughter," David calmly uttered these words.  He raised the de of Space and brought it down towards Alvin''s face.  The whistling debined with the chilling radiance emanating from it immediately filled Alvin''s eyes with fear!  In desperation, he immediately manipted the moltenva tiger to pounce towards David''s back!


    "Roar!"  The moltenva tiger revealed its sharp ws and viciously swiped at David''s back.  A trace of disdain appeared on David''s lips as he twisted his wrist and executed a move called "Look Back at the Moon," instantly cleaving the moltenva tiger in half.  The tiger let out a painful howl and transformed into two pools ofva sshed onto the ground.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>


    Witnessing his moltenva tiger being in by David''s single strike, Alvin felt a pang of pain in his heart.  Seizing this opportunity, he leaped backward andnded on amppost, crouching down and taking heavy breaths.


    David''s strike had severed his meridians.  If he hadn''t forcibly sealed the wound with his aura, he would have likely died under David''s de.


    Alvin''s entire body began to tremble as he stared fixedly at David.  He had initially thought that he could easily crush David with his own strength, but the current desperate situation was something he hadn''t anticipated.


    Seeing Alvin being pushed to a dead end, the members of the Embers squad finally breathed a sigh of relief.  Meanwhile, with Sophie''s Ster Healing assisting him, Arnold had also recovered from his internal injuries.


    Arnold had observed the fight between David and Alvin earlier and silently nodded his head.  He now understood why David didn''t let him continue fighting Alvin.  With his current level of strength, he could probably only engage with the moltenva tiger.


    David nced up at Alvin, who was perched on themppost, his eyes still sinister and terrifying.  Even his teammates felt chills running down their spines.  They had never seen David in this state, resembling a killing god whose sole purpose was to end his opponent''s life.


    Alvin took a breath and concentrated more aura on his wound.  "Kid, you''ve sessfully angered me!"  Alvin slowly stood up, and his strength began to recover.


    "Did you really think this old man is so easy to bully?  Hahaha!  I''ll show you my true power!"  Alvinughed maniacally,pletely changing his appearance from his previously disheveled state.


    David paid no attention to Alvin''s words.  Compare their strength?  As someone who had experienced rebirth, he would never ept defeat based on strength alone.


    "Come out!  Pyrocorpse!  Let these fools witness your terrifying power!"  Alvin raised both hands high as if performing a certain ritual.  As he spoke, arge amount of moltenva spewed out from his wound without restraint.


    Soon, Alvin''s entire body was tightly enveloped by the moltenva.  His body underwent a grotesque transformation in that moment.  On one side, his skeletal structure appeared white and bare, while the other side was a burning flesh.  One could even see his heart pulsating inside.


    "A corpse?"  David immediately understood the sinister transformation Alvin had undergone.  This guy before him had actually transformed himself into a pyrocorpse.  Shaking his head, David couldn''t believe that someone would resort to such inhumane methods against him.


    As the pyrocorpse, Alvin''s body had grown to two meters in height.  Exposed ribs stood erect, each gleaming with sharp and icy light.  His once murky eyes turned pitch-ck, exuding an eerie depth, and a mass of red mes reced his pupils.  "This is my true power!  Apocalypse...  I am the apocalypse of this world!"
