Some might say the strongest defense was offense.

But Neo didn’t agree with that.

Not when, after his strongest defense had been pushed to the limit.

And it was still not enough.

His body shot through the tunnel, as he was thrown back by the kick from the strange creature that had appeared.

Neo landed on his feet.

It was a rough landing, but he was still able to gain his footing.

He looked at the massive being before him.

It was nothing like the other strange creatures.

Not only was it larger, it also looked different from the others.

However, the most important thing was the feeling it gave off.

A feeling none of its kind had given off before.

Not even those at the sixth limit break.

This was the feeling of rank suppression.

The oppression of a higher lifeform on a lower lifeform.

Neo was being stared down by a higher level being.

An E-Rank strange creature.

And he felt everything was surreal.

The strange creature didn’t attack again, after the first kick that had sent him flying.

The two beings stared at each other across the vast distance between them.

Neo slowly calmed himself.

He used this chance when the strange creature chose to observe, to go over what had just happened.

His quick defense had been more of an instinctive action, than anything deliberate on his part.

He almost thanked the Ancient Supreme for putting him through that hellish training.

If not for that, he would have suffered a grievous injury at the very least.

If he was unlucky enough, he would have died.

This current situation made absolutely no sense.

An E-Rank.

But there was some good news, this was the most ordinary E-Rank being.

It hadn’t broken any limit at the F-Rank.

Otherwise.

[You would be dead.]

Neo already had a suspicion that Devour had access to his thoughts.

Now, he confirmed it.

[How many times do you have to be told that it is nothing that intrusive.]

’What is it then?’

[Become strong enough, you will figure it out.]

Neo decided to ask for a direct answer.

’How strong?’

[Don’t bother with pointless things. Gather your full strength, and defeat this thing.]

Devour didn’t answer his question.

Gather his full strength?

The only thing he could do now was to activate his bloodline.

But with Devour already doing its thing, what was the point of that?

[You know, it’s a bloodline for a reason. You might as well activate it, and figure out what it actually does.]

That made sense.

The only bloodline within his being was Devour.

But he had never really used the bloodline before.

All he had done was just gather endless essence using the ruse of the Five-character bloodline of the Swallower lineage.

And when he did actually consume something, the devouring was done automatically.

He had been so overly cautious, that he had never before used the bloodline in its true form.

If all it did was just gather essence, or consume things and transform them into essence, it would not be so special.

There were many bloodlines from different lineages that could do just that.

Some lineages, like the Swallower lineage also had that as their specialty.

Although Devour could do it better than they could, but was that all?

He activated his bloodline to the very max.

All his senses were focused on a small space around him.

All the techniques he used had their range focused in that small space.

He was fighting an E-Rank being, he needed to counter the most powerful ability of that rank.

The strange creature appeared directly in front of him.

There was no warning.

It didn’t run towards him, it simply appeared.

Neo punched it directly.

But the punch only shook the strange creature a bit.

The strange creature returned the attack with its own punch.

Neo was barely able to block it, he staggered back.

But the strange creature had disappeared.

Neo felt the strong impact coming from behind him.

He didn’t bother to block it, he rolled out of the way.

This was really annoying.

His strength wasn’t enough to hurt the strange creature.

But that was just the least of his troubles.

He had no way to deal with the special ability of the E-Rank.

[This is going to be fun.]

’You better hurry and tell me what your bloodline is all about, before I die here.’

[My Bloodline? I don’t have one.]

’I am sure you have a way to deal with this thing. Now isn’t the time for pointless nonsense.’

[You are the one with the bloodline, figure it out.]

The strange creature didn’t seem to be in the mood to only observe any longer.

It appeared before Neo again.

Its massive leg, like a tree trunk, smashed towards his chest.

He didn’t bother going on the defensive this time, he jumped back to escape the attack.

He had barely landed, before he had to dodge the punch aimed at his head.

No matter how fast he moved, the strange creature was always one step ahead.

Totally relaxed.

[I am sure you will run out of techniques to use soon. No matter how many of them you know. Now is the time for you to focus your strength.]

’I am all ears if you have anything useful to say.’

[Have you thought of something?]

’I am thinking hundreds of things right now.’

[Then think back to the time you awakened me.]

Neo almost blinked.

But that would be a fatal mistake at this very moment.

[I devoured something that would have destroyed you, in just an instant. And then, I was pathetically weak.]

Neo felt it made sense now.

Devour.

But how?

He spared some of his focus to the brightly lit bloodline mark on his forehead.

That was the easiest way to access whatever Devour was talking about.

Neo didn’t know what effect it would have on this E-Rank creature, but he looked forward to it.

The moment the ability activated, everything seemed to slow down.

Neo hadn’t suddenly become faster than everything else around him.

This was something different entirely.

He could somehow divide a single moment into several smaller ones.

But that was just a side effect, not the true power of Devour.

It was what he saw in this instant that truly mattered.

His senses were almost overwhelmed by the sight of the different auras all around him.

He didn’t understand most of what he saw, but he made sense of the most important thing.

He could devour the E-Rank creature before him.

And he did just that.

Or at least, he tried to.

The headache that assaulted him almost made him collapse.

[That was foolish. I might be strong now, but you still haven’t reached the required strength to do that.]

The strange creature paused its attacks.

Neo looked at it, he endured the migraine that was trying to split his head.

He hoped that at least, there was a change.

The strange creature took a step, it was just a normal step.

It didn’t suddenly appear in front of Neo.

That was very good.

Now, all Neo had to deal with was its inherent strength.

He combined a lot of escape and attack techniques together.

He was going to kill this strange creature now.

He became a blur.

The strange creature also moved in a blur.

But Neo was still faster.

He concentrated his attacks on the strange creature.

He no longer had to worry about defense.

He fired rapid attacks at the strange creature.

A single attack might not work, but thousands?

The answer to that question was evident when the strange creature collapsed to the ground.

The essence devoured from it was the greatest from any single creature, but there was no riloma.
