The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 417 Withering

Kai's right hand trembled slightly, his thumb slowly rose, and then he stabbed it into his heart.

In that instant, Kai's heart seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand, stopping its beating. Time around him seemed to stand still, and the whole world fell into a deathly silence.

However, a few seconds later, "thump!" "thump!" "thump!", the sound of his heart beating, like a rousing war drum, came from Kai's chest and spread in all directions.

The sound grew louder and more powerful, like a cry for life.

Blood-red steam, like a demon emerging from the depths of hell, instantly enveloped Kai.

Kai's skin, eyebrows, and hair also turned dark red in an instant—the color of burning life.

His chakra materialized at this moment, forming a visible red halo, and the intense power fluctuations caused the surrounding air to vibrate.

Wes could see the flow of chakra within Guy's body and the operation of the Eight Gates as clearly as reading an open book.

"As expected, it's of no use to me."

This technique, which drains all life force to gain power, is incredibly powerful, but it's not suitable for Wes.

Within the magic system that Wes possessed, there were many similar spells capable of unleashing powerful energy, but he simply hadn't practiced any of them.

The Eight Gates Formation is listed as a forbidden technique because its power is too astonishing.

On the other hand, it also causes great damage to practitioners.

Out of ten thousand people, perhaps only one will be able to successfully open the eighth gate.

This not only requires practitioners to have superhuman physical qualities to withstand the enormous impact on their bodies when the Eight Gates are opened, but also requires unwavering perseverance and determination to toughen their bodies day after day, enduring tedious and arduous training every day.

Cultivators need to undergo high-intensity physical training, constantly challenging their physical limits, falling down and getting up countless times.

Perhaps only someone as simple-minded, determined, and persistent as Matthias could persevere.

"This is the last of my youth!"

Kai roared.

He stomped heavily on the air, and the air seemed to be tamed by his power, running endlessly around the Heavenly Dao.

His speed was so great that the surrounding air was stirred up by his body, forming visible streams of air.

His figure created countless afterimages, appearing from a distance like dozens of Kai surrounding the Heavenly Dao.

"One foot of Xixiang!"

He suddenly threw a punch.

The fist whistled through the air, creating a powerful air cannon.

Wes sensed the power of the attack and immediately increased his repulsive force.

The repulsive force collided violently with the air cannon, and the surrounding air seemed to be instantly detonated, producing a violent explosion.

Under the impact of the powerful force, the surrounding space seemed to be distorted by an invisible hand, briefly forming a vacuum area.

The Heavenly Dao's body was also knocked to the ground by this powerful impact.

The surrounding ground was like torn paper, swirling and rolling in all directions.

If it were Nagato controlling the body of the Heavenly Dao at this moment, he would probably have been pulverized by Kai's attack.

But at this moment, it was Wes who was controlling this body, and this attack only covered the body of the Heavenly Dao with a layer of dust.

"Hmm~"

Kai let out a painful groan; the punch he had just received had cracked the bone in his right arm.

His face showed pain, but his eyes burned with an even stronger fighting spirit.

Seeing that the enemy was completely unharmed, such a powerful enemy only fueled Kai's fighting spirit.

"Two feet!"

"Suffice it!"

Despite his injuries, Kai kept throwing punches.

Each punch compresses the air into a projectile.

However, these attacks were unable to break through the repulsive barrier of the Heavenly Dao.

The ground was riddled with countless deep craters from this powerful attack.

The surrounding mountains were also shaken down by this force, producing a series of booming sounds.

Huge boulders rolled down, raising clouds of dust.

The animals in the forest sensed this terrifying power and began to flee in panic. Birds cried out in terror in the air, and wild beasts ran wildly through the mountains and forests, fleeing from this dangerous place.

"Teacher Kai!"

As Xiao Li looked at the red figure in the sky, tears instantly blurred his vision.

His lips trembled, his heart filled with grief and reluctance.

Once Kai uses the Eighth Gate, death is the only outcome awaiting him.

Neji Hyuga and Tenten were equally heavy-hearted. After spending several years with Guy, they had developed a deep respect for this seemingly simple-minded but actually incredibly responsible and warm-hearted teacher.

Neji's eyes were filled with resentment and self-blame, and he clenched his fists.

Still too weak.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

I couldn't withstand even one attack like that.

Not only Neji, but also Naruto, Kakashi, Chiyo, and even Sasori and Deidara were shocked by the powerful force that Guy unleashed after opening the Eighth Gate.

Kai is an existence that transcends human limits.

Naruto's mouth dropped open, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Kakashi's eyes were filled with worry and admiration.

Chiyo's face showed surprise and regret.

A flicker of fear crossed the eyes of both Sasori and Deidara.

Under such an attack, it would be considered extremely fortunate for an ordinary person to survive with their body intact.

Scorpion looked at the scroll in his hand, a sense of bewilderment rising in his heart.

"What does my pursuit of puppetry amount to in the face of such power?"

Even a puppet made from the Third Kazekage would probably not be able to withstand even one hit from Gai's attack.

His years of unwavering pursuit of puppetry were severely impacted at this moment.

Looking down at Kai, who was already at his last gasp, Tiandao revealed a mocking smile and asked, "Is there anything you want to say?"

At this moment, Kai's life is like a candle flickering in the wind, which could be extinguished at any moment.

His body was riddled with wounds, but he had not given up.

He braced himself on the ground with both hands, his body bent low, and every movement seemed incredibly difficult.

He took a deep breath and shouted, "Accumulate!"

Red steam quickly condensed into a dragon shape, tightly surrounding Kai.

The dragon-shaped steam was baring its fangs and claws, and Kai unleashed all his power.

"Night Kai!"

With his last ounce of strength, Kai let out a roar.

It was as if molten lava was flowing through his meridians, and his body was covered with red veins, making him seem like a messenger of destruction.

"Is this your final performance?" Wes looked at Kay, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

Although the attack was powerful, with his abilities, dodging it would have been a piece of cake.

"Whoosh~"

Kai charged toward the Heavenly Dao like a cannonball.
