Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill Chapter 738:Sneak In

Ethan stared at the broken spot on the left side of his body.

"That son of a bitch..."

His expression twisted from the terrible pain. A large portion of his flesh had been completely torn away along with part of his rib cage.

Several ribs were missing, and the damaged lung beneath them was exposed. Air leaked from the torn lung every time he tried to breathe, making his chest rise unevenly. Blood continued pouring from the wound and soaked the side of his clothes.

"Haa... Haa..."

Ethan struggled to breathe.

The constant pain and uneasiness made it difficult for him to concentrate. His vision blurred slightly, and his body felt weaker with every passing moment. He knew he could not continue fighting like this.

Ethan closed his eyes and summoned the power of light.

Buzz!

A soft glow appeared around his body.

The light quickly became stronger until his entire figure was covered in a brilliant white radiance. Warm light gathered around the terrible wound on his side and slowly sank into the damaged flesh.

The bleeding stopped first.

The torn blood vessels connected together while the damaged tissue began repairing itself. Small pieces of bone started growing from the broken ends of his ribs. They stretched forward little by little and slowly formed the missing parts of his rib cage.

Crack!

Crack!

Ethan clenched his teeth as an uncomfortable itching pain spread through his body.

The broken ribs continued growing until they completely connected and returned to their original shape. The light moved deeper into his body and surrounded his damaged lung. The torn sections slowly closed while fresh tissue formed over the damaged areas. The holes leaking air disappeared one after another, and the lung gradually returned to its proper shape.

Ethan finally managed to take a deep breath.

"Haa..."

Fresh air entered his lungs without any difficulty.

The healing did not stop there.

New muscles began forming over his repaired ribs. Thin strands of flesh grew and connected together before gradually becoming thicker. Blood vessels spread through the newly formed tissue while nerves slowly reconnected. Another layer of flesh grew over the muscles before fresh skin finally formed across the surface.

Within a short time, the horrible hole in Ethan's side had completely disappeared.Only the blood covering his torn clothes remained as proof of the injury.

Ethan opened his eyes and slowly moved his shoulder before taking another deep breath.

While his body healed, his mind had already fallen into deep thought.

Alaster.

That bastard had to die no matter what.

Ethan's expression became extremely serious.

The Half-Step Ascension Realm was truly frightening. Although it was only a short step above the Transcendent Realm, that short step represented a vast chasm in strength. Even with several Transcendent Realm experts attacking together, it was extremely difficult to suppress Alaster.

Numbers alone might not be enough.

Ethan silently considered the powers he still had available.

He could use the power of his family.

However, he immediately rejected that thought.

'No.'

He could not use the power of his family yet. Not until he was completely sure he could take Alaster down at once. If he revealed such a card and still failed to kill the bastard, he would only expose one of his greatest secrets for nothing.

Aside from that, the battle frenzy art still remained.

There was also his power to call upon his future self.

Ethan frowned deeply.

It was hard to decide which power he should save.

The power to call upon his future self or the power of his family.

Both were extremely important cards, and he did not want to reveal either without a good reason.

As for battle frenzy it had its own problem.Using it would leave him weak afterward.

That was what had happened previously.

However, things are different now.

He had already reached the Transcendent Realm, and his control over the power of light had improved greatly. His healing ability had also become much stronger. Even if battle frenzy weakened his body afterward, he now had enough power to override much of that weakness.

Ethan slowly raised his head.

His hesitation disappeared.

"I can't be indecisive..."

He pushed himself away from the mountain and stood straight.

BOOM!

His body suddenly went berserk.

A violent surge of power erupted from deep within him and rushed through every part of his body. His heart began beating like a heavy drum while his blood churned violently through his veins. His muscles tightened and swelled slightly as a powerful heat spread through his limbs.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

Each heartbeat pushed another wave of strength through him.

Ethan's eyes widened slightly.

He had expected the increase from Berserk to become almost negligible after reaching the Transcendent Realm.

He was wrong.

The power inside his body rose rapidly.

His blood felt as though it was boiling while his muscles became filled with explosive strength. Even his bones trembled under the sudden increase in power. His senses sharpened, and the battlefield in the distance became much clearer.

Ethan slowly clenched his fist.

BOOM!

The air around his hand burst from the pressure.

A dangerous light flashed through his eyes.

This strength still might not be enough to overwhelm Alaster directly.But he did not need to fight him directly.

Alaster was already occupied with several powerful opponents.

Ethan only needed one chance.

One clean opening.

One attack that Alaster would never see coming.

"Sneak attack... I need to cast a perfect sneak attack."

Ethan's eyes glowed dangerously as he stared toward the distant battlefield.

The powerful aura around his body slowly disappeared as he began suppressing his presence.

If he was going to attack...

He needed to make sure Alaster noticed nothing until it was already too late.

....

The moment Ethan managed to pull away, Emperor Ezekiel, Emperor Aldric, Emperor Caelus, and Queen Ophelia immediately closed in from different directions.

They had already seen enough to understand the difference between them and Alaster.

Fighting him one by one would only allow him to crush them separately. Even their combined attacks had failed because Alaster was simply too fast. He could avoid what he did not want to take and endure the rest with his frightening body.

"We need to stop his movements first!" Emperor Aldric shouted as he pulled his weapon back and stared at Alaster carefully. "Don't give him another chance to move freely!"

"I'll force him into position!" Emperor Ezekiel roared.

His aura exploded as he charged first. Alaster turned toward him and sneered before shooting forward to meet him, but Ezekiel suddenly stopped halfway. Instead of attacking Alaster directly, he raised his greatsword and slammed it into the ground.

BOOOOM!

A violent wave of sword aura spread across the earth. The ground around Alaster cracked and rose upward as several enormous walls of condensed sword aura erupted around him. Alaster immediately moved to escape through the opening above, but Emperor Caelus had already appeared there.

"Stay down!"

Caelus thrust both hands forward.

Several huge golden chains formed in the sky and shot downward. They did not aim directly for Alaster's body. Instead, they struck the ground around him and formed a large circular cage. The chains crossed one another and tightened rapidly while golden symbols appeared across their surfaces.

Alaster's expression finally changed.

He punched one of the chains.

BANG!

The entire cage shook violently.

Cracks appeared across the golden chain, but before Alaster could strike again, Emperor Aldric moved. His weapon swept through the air as several sharp lines of energy shot toward the ground around Alaster.

SWISH!

SWISH!

SWISH!

Each line struck a different point around the cage.

The moment the final one landed, they connected together.

Buzz!

A huge formation appeared beneath Alaster's feet.

The formation immediately began pulling at the aura surrounding his body. Alaster felt his movements becoming heavier as the force around him pressed down from every direction.

"What is this?"
