Chapter 179: Extreme Luck
This was noticed by Fang Jiong whose heart trembled, he was naturally much stronger than Qin Jiagui but Qin Jiagui’s Steel Missile was clearly more effective against the Fiery Magma Devil, his Steel Shattering Cleave was clearly not working out as well.
In no time, Fang Jiong quickly understood that the Fiery Magma Devil which was formed of lava was actually more susceptible to attacks with a large blast radius, attacks that aimed at a single target like the Steel Shattering Cleave had almost no effect against the monster.
Thinking of this, Fang Jiong swiftly kept his butcher’s knife as black undulations began to gather at his palm. Fang Jiong was prepared to change his methods as a ball of black undulations could be seen on his hand, another frightening ability was about to be sent flying forth.
Qin Jiagui’s Steel Missile was visibly effective as it exploded causing the Fiery Magma Devil to roar as it retreated, Qin Jiagui noticed this but did not immediately rush forward in his excitement. He was no longer naive and had improved tremendously, he understood that he was merely a tier three dark iron warrior while the Fiery Magma Devil was actually a tier four elite beast soldier, if he were to meet it head on, he would certainly be disadvantaged.
At this moment if he were to suddenly rush forward, that would be the same as sending himself to his death. Even though his Steel Missile was effective, he did not continue attacking but rather retreated to Ma Ziye’s side, he wished to rely on Ma Ziye’s Heaven’s Net to use his most powerful ability ‘Double Explosive Iron Fist’, at the same time he could delay time for the cooldown of Steel Missile which was a minute long.
Ma Ziye held her position as she stomped, activating the Heaven’s Net with all her might. She held the Star Blade within her right hand but its ability was still on cooldown, besides this ability, she did not have any moves which could deal lethal damage to these level four elite beast soldiers.
Zhang Zhongmou’s Shattered Fragments Light had failed to injure the oncoming Fiery Magma Devil and had instead infuriated it as it roared, rushing to the sky before landing directly before Zhang Zhongmou. It had flung lava towards Zhang Zhongmou, Qin Jiagui and the others earlier causing them to be in rather sorry states. The formation of the group was a mess as it stretched its hands towards Zhang Zhongmou, its speed was phenomenal, clearly exceeding that of Zhang Zhongmou who was a tier three dark iron warrior.
Zhang Zhongmou’s Shattered Fragments Light could be used every five minutes, together with the Red Lotus Fiery Assault which was also on cooldown, Zhang Zhongmou did not have the time to dodge and simply had no other choice but to use the Light of Petrification.
The Fiery Magma Devil was simply too fast and was hit square in the chest, however, the Light of Petrification was only able to petrify a small portion of its chest while its other parts could still function normally.
Zhang Zhongmou knew that the situation was grim and wanted to use the Red Lotus Sword but his waist had already been struck by a fist.
A groan could be heard as Zhang Zhongmou flew away like a broken kite, fresh blood spewing from his mouth as he tumbled away. His waist had been struck by the lava fist and had immediately began to fester, even his intestines within had been affected as he curled his body while moaning.
Although he was already a tier three dark iron warrior, the petrification only affected the chest region of the monster while his supple waist had actually taken a full blow from a tier four elite beast soldier.
Zhang Zhongmou was lying on the ground powerless as Ma Ziye’s Heaven’s Net expanded as it swiftly took effect, snaring the remaining Fiery Magma Devils, the Fiery Magma Devil which had just dealt a blow to Zhang Zhongmou was immediately halted as the steel threads continued to extend upwards, thoroughly binding it in place.
Xu Ruyun and Zhao Shichang who were beside Ma Ziye immediately saw the chance as they swiftly acted, Xu Ruyun immediately tossed out tens of surgical knives towards the body of the Fiery Magma Devil.
Su Yu had mentioned that killing this monster could only be done by destroying the fire energy crystal within it, however, the fire energy crystal was not in a fixed position as it constantly flowed within the body of the Fiery Magma Devil, it was almost impossible to tell where the crystal was located, how could it be easy to destroy it?
This was the reason why Xu Ruyun had tossed out tens of surgical knives, he wanted to try his luck and hope that one of them would actually be able to destroy the fire energy crystal.
Zhao Shichang did not have Xu Ruyun’s ability to attack in a wide area, he did not hesitate as he used his bone knife to rush forward, chopping down onto the head of the monster.
“Chi!”
The Bone Blade was still rather terrifying as it split the Fiery Magma Devil from top to bottom, thereafter, Zhao Shichang heard a crisp cracking noise, could it be that the fire energy crystal had been destroyed?
Zhao Shichang did not have the time to think further as the Fiery Magma Devil before him instantly began to melt like that person made of wax, instantly becoming soft and becoming a puddle of lava. Thereafter, a crystal flew into his body as strange energy began to surge, instantly rushing towards the ‘door’ at his shoulder area.
Tier three, Zhao Shichang had finally advanced to become a tier three dark iron warrior.
Xu Ruyun was stunned as he glanced over at Zhao Shichang, he had used tens of surgical knives without striking the energy crystal but Zhao Shichang was so fortunate to use a single slash to hit the fire energy crystal within the Fiery Magma Devil.
Zhao Shichang had finally advanced to tier three as he howled, at this moment, a frightening ability comprehension filled him causing his right arm and upper body to begin to twist and change, besides his two legs, left arm and head, the other areas of his body began to go through a strange metamorphosis into an insect.
A black carapace appeared as his body was pulled and twisted longer, suddenly, Zhao Shichang howled as he flew through the air as he landed before another FIery Magma Devil. His two legs did not move but his upper body began to twisting and contorting, the frightening bone blade on his right arm spun crazily forming a revolving blade wheel.
“Chi! Chi! Chi!”
In an instantly, the lava on the body of the Fiery Magma Devil was sent flying away as frightening roars were emitted from the monster’s mouth.
The Fiery Magma Devil was, after all, a tier four elite beast soldier and swiftly came out of its stupor as it roared and smashed with its two arms.
