Chapter 1689: The Impassable Gully

This surprise attack was so sudden that Jesse could do nothing but condense the smoke into a shield in an attempt to fend it off, yet in the end, his scapula was still fiercely hacked by the sword.

That one strike nearly cleaved Jesse in two, and he could feel an eerie power targeting the Divine coursing into him from the wound, spreading and eroding throughout his body. For a moment, he was utterly helpless against this strange force.

Spurt~

A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out as Jesse's body, like a broken sack, was flung more than ten meters away, violently crashing into several white pillars beside the Temple Gate.

That sword strike had reduced Jesse's Vitality Points by a third, and blood gushed from the wound, showing no signs of healing. Meanwhile, the strange power that targeted the Divine continued to infiltrate his organs, causing Jesse to lose control of his body momentarily!

Bang~
