Godly Revival System: I Buy My Killer's Stats-Chapter 315: Cedric versus Petrik

Outside the Soul Realm...

Cedric’s body shot forward like a meteor, his sword wreathed in blinding green flames as he clashed with Petrik.

"[Green Lotus Sword— Critical Strike]"

’Swiish’

With a sharp cry, he slashed at Petrik’s chest.

But Petrik’s claws were faster.

Clang!

The sound of metal clashing against something far harder than steel echoed in the battlefield as Petrik casually deflected the blade with the back of his hand.

"So slow... you’re trying to scratch me with that twig?"

A smirk formed on the Blood Beast King’s face. Before Cedric could retreat, Petrik’s claw slashed horizontally.

Slash!

A gash opened on Cedric’s side, blood spraying into the air, but he gritted his teeth and used the impact to tumble backwards, keeping distance and roared, "Everyone, attack now."

’Rawrr’

’Hiss~’

’Woo’

At once, the ten Evolved Spirit Beasts exploded into action.

[Dragon Serpent Bind]

The two Blood Dragon Serpents increased in length as they tightly wrapped around Petrik.

[Twin Thunder Descent!]

Next, a pair of Lightning Dragon Apes crackled with golden sparks as lightning strikes descended from the sky, forming a cage of thunder around Petrik, imprisoning him.

Once they immobilised Petrik, the remaining Evolved Spirit Beasts attacked in no time.

[Bloodquake Dragon Smash!]

’Boom’

The Bloodrage Dragon Bears slammed their fists onto the ground, making the earth tremble violently as chunks of rock launched into the air like shrapnel.

[Phantom Dragon Fang!]

The agile Phantom Dragon Wolves blinked behind Petrik’s back with their fangs, glowing with black-colored spirit essence, and struck toward the vulnerable gap between Petrik’s shoulder and neck on both sides.

Everything happened in just a couple of seconds, and from beginning to end, Petrik stood in his place without doing anything.

"Pathetic."

But suddenly, Petrik casually shook his body, freeing himself from the Blood Serpent’s tight binding.

Next, he turned 180 degrees and looked at the two Phantom Wolves that wanted to bite him.

Boom!

A single swipe of his tail sent the Phantom Wolves flying dozens of meters, slamming into a tree and a boulder with pitiful yelps.

’Boom’

’Boom’

However, Petrik was unable to dodge the incoming shrapnel as it hit him.

"Is this your plan?"

Once the dust cleared, Petrik stood in his place without any injuries whatsoever.

Looking at Cedric, Petrik sneered, crimson energy swirling around him like a storm.

’Boom’

The lightning shattered as Petrik walked forward like a demon untouched by the laws of nature.

"Cedric, even if I stood here, you can’t kill me with these weaklings."

While saying that, Petrik stood there, asking them to use their full-powered attacks.

’Rawrrr’

’Hiss~’

Seeing that, the Evolved Spirit Beasts’ eyes lit up as they didn’t waste any time and attacked from different directions with all their attacks.

’Urr’

’Huff’

After a few minutes, the Evolved Spirit Beasts stopped on their own as they were tired.

Even after attacking Petrik for a while, except for a few scratches, the 10 Evolved Spirit Beasts haven’t done any real damage to him.

"Did you see that?"

Petrik chuckled as his eyes suddenly turned blood-red and continued saying, "Now, it is time to show my power."

’Swiish’

’Slash’

’One.’

’Swiish’

’Slash’

’Two.’

Soon, Petrik moved at an incredible speed as he casually slashed at the 10 Evolved Spirit Beasts, leaving a deadly cut on their bodies.

"Haha...the blood essence of these Spirit Beasts contains Dragon Blood."

Licking the blood of one of the Evolved Spirit Beasts, Petrik was pleasantly shocked and muttered, "With their blood, I should be able to create powerful Dragon Blood Beasts."

After learning that, Petrik no longer wanted to kill these 10 Evolved Spirit Beasts; instead, he wanted to nurture them...for their blood.

"Now, you don’t have any help. It is just me and you."

Although Petrik decided not to kill the Evolved Spirit Beasts, those Spirit Beasts are no longer capable of joining the battle after the deadly blow he had made earlier.

So, now, it was only Petrik versus Cedric.

Soon, the fight between Petrik and Cedric officially began, and Cedric tried his best to defend himself.

That’s right!

After seeing how powerful Petrik’s defences are, Cedric knew it was useless to attack him.

Therefore, he decided to use all his strength to defend against Petrik’s attacks.

"What? Cedric, are you going to defend until you die? Why don’t you attack me? Keke."

But Cedric didn’t respond. He didn’t need to.

’Cough...cough’

Even though Cedric was receiving more and more injuries with each attack he defended, and he even coughed blood from the injuries, there was a slight smile at the corner of his lips.

’The more he toys with me... the more time I can waste.’

Yes. Cedric wasn’t trying to win. His goal wasn’t to slay the monster in front of him.

His mission was simple – Buy time.

Every second that ticked by was precious.

Every drop of blood spilt was worth it.

Because as long as he could last... Master Ethan would return.

"You’re not even frustrated... Are you enjoying this?"

Noticing the strange glint in Cedric’s eyes, Petrik growled in annoyance.

’....’

However, Cedric didn’t say anything.

After every attack, Cedric would wipe the blood from his mouth and stand tall again.

"Tch."

Petrik’s eyes narrowed as a pulse of rage leaked from his body.

"Fine. I have lost interest in toying with you. It is time to end you before ending the entire Lin Family."

"Also, all the Lin Family Members you have sent away...especially your grandson, Edwin and Merrick, along with the rest of the Lin Family youngsters you sent to the Greenfire City....I will kill them one by one before eating them to my stomach’s content."

Suddenly, the air grew colder as the bloodlust emitted by Petrik grew thicker as he slashed his sharp blood claws at Cedric.

"For that, you need to kill me."

On the other hand, Cedric didn’t back away as he finally activated the trump card he was saving: ’[Azure Serpent Fiend King’s Bloodline], activate.’

’Swiish’

Suddenly, his battle prowess rose and reached double of his original battle prowess.

’Catch’

Cedric casually took a back step and easily caught the incoming blood claw.

Thanks to the bloodline’s effect, even though Cedric’s battle prowess was not on par with Petrik’s, he was able to closely match him.

"Y-you...you have a Bloodline that boosted your battle prowess?"

Petrik was shocked to see the sudden boost in Cedric’s battle prowess.

"How can you get shocked in the middle of the fight?"

Cedric didn’t waste the perfect opportunity as he tightly held Petrik’s wrist and used his full force, smashing Petrik into the ground multiple times.

’Slash’

As Cedric continued, Petrik used his other claw to leave a deep cut in Cedric’s abdomen.

’Aargh’

Cedric released Petrik and groaned in pain, pressing his hands against the cut.

"What is the use of having such a powerful bloodline? You are still not a match for me. Moreover, with all the injuries you have, it is even more impossible to do anything."

Petrik licked Cedric’s blood and muttered, "Huh? Your blood has a hint of Azure Serpent Blood. Interesting. You will also make a good source for replenishing my blood beast army."

"Petrik, did you forget about something?"

Despite his body being full of injuries, Cedric still maintained a smile as he shouted, ’[Verdant Lotus King’s Bloodline], activate.’

’Swiish’

As soon as Cedric activated his second bloodline, all the injuries on his body started recovering at an incredible speed.

It was not just him who was recovering from the injuries, all 10 Evolved Spirit Beasts were also recovering.

"Come then, Petrik. Let’s see how long I can entertain you."

Cedric called Petrik with his fingers as he was ready to fight Petrik.

"Interesting...you are really the son of the Lotus King...giving surprises till the very end."

For Petrik, the stronger the prey is, the more interesting it is. Moreover, seeing his prey revealing all kinds of trump cards but still guaranteed to die... it was pure pleasure for Petrik.

Soon, another round of battle between Cedric and Petrik began, and it was much stronger than before. freewebnøvel.com

Both sides went all out, using their powerful skills; however, Cedric was still lacking a bit as he continued to receive injuries.

Nevertheless, thanks to his [Verdant Lotus King’s Bloodline], his injuries were rapidly healing.

Time continued to pass, and in a flash, 9 minutes passed by since Cedric activated his bloodline, and it’s been 30 minutes since Ethan died.

So, as long as Cedric dragged the fight for another 30 minutes, his mission would be completed.

However, Cedric knew it wouldn’t be possible to drag the fight for that long.

’In another minute, both my bloodlines will be deactivated.’

Cedric became anxious and started thinking about how else he could drag the fight for another 30 minutes.

’Wait a second... let’s do that.’

Suddenly, Cedric thought of something, and although he was not sure, he had no other choice and went with such a simple plan.

Another minute passed by as Cedric’s two Bloodlines fell into cooldown, and they could only be used again tomorrow.

"Puchi"

As soon as Cedric became weak, Petrik punched Cedric, intending to kill him.

"Huh? You are still alive?"

However, Cedric was still alive... of course, he was barely hanging between life and death.

"You have put up an interesting fight. But, now, it is time to die."

Petrik still had to kill the other Lin Family Cultivators to finish his mission. So, he no longer wanted to waste his time on Cedric, and thus, he decided to kill him.

’Die’

Petrik directly stepped on Cedric’s neck to crush it.

’Sorry, Master. I was unable to fulfil your mission.’

Cedric was helpless as he looked at Petrik’s leg that would crush him to death.

"Now, it is time to take care of the ants."

Once he killed Cedric, Petrik looked in the direction and revealed an eerie smile.

’Swushh’

Just when Petrik was about to complete his mission, a golden-white scaled Koi Fish appeared in front of him.

’Huh? A Fish?’

Petrik frowned as he looked at the fish that was swinging mid-air.

"Let’s eat it."

’Swiish’

He wanted to catch it; however, it easily dodged his monster claws and released a couple of scales at him.

’Boom’

’Boom’

Petrik unconsciously dodged them; however, they followed him and exploded upon touching him.

"Damn it."

Although there was no damage done to Petrik, he was annoyed that even a fish dared to attack him.

[Tide of Rebirth]

’Swiish’

As for the Koi Fish, it didn’t waste any time as it activated its ultimate skill.

’Swiish’

Soon, a 10-meter area around the Celestial Spring Koi Fish turned into a Heavenly Land and Cedric’s lifeless body was covered in a Heavenly Light as all the injuries on his body disappeared.

’T-this... it is reviving that b*stard.’

Under Petrik’s shocked eyes, Cedric revived back to his peak condition, and most importantly, all his skills and bloodlines were out of cooldown.

’[Azure Serpent Fiend King’s Bloodline], activate.’

After activating his bloodline, Cedric once again called Petrik for a new round of fighting.

"Now, shall we have another round?"
