Chapter 284 - The Vortex in His Spiritual Sea (2/2)

However, when the Scarlet Flame Drake and the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s elemental skills reached a balance, the force they unleashed directly doubled, breaking through the black fog’s defense in an instant!

Left without a choice, the black gigantic worm could only reduce the area of the black fog, abandoning its surrounding minions.

As the rain of fire and frozen air shrouded the mountain peak in an instant, all the grayish black insects nearby let out soundless cries. Their bodies quickly fell apart under the combined forces of the ice and fire elements, disintegrating.

Mysterious energies came to Zhang Che one after another, leaving him feeling so good that he almost moaned out in pleasure.

Suddenly, a soundless roar swept out from below, and Zhang Che’s pets let out painful cries.

Zhang Che himself wasn’t affected, however, as the big brother rainbow crystal helped him at the crucial moment, shielding him from the powerful spiritual attack.

In the next moment, the savage gigantic worm suddenly took a deep breath. Zhang Che watched as the black fog at the center of the mountain peak’s pit was all sucked in by the gigantic worm, leaving only a weird round pit.

Having swallowed all the black fog, the gigantic worm whose body was very big to begin with, grew a whole size bigger. It suddenly lifted off the ground without any wind, pouncing towards the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon in the air.

“Run!” Zhang Che’s eyes narrowed slightly. Now that both the Scarlet Flame Drake and Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s skills were used up, they had no way to attack it any more. There was no option other than to run away.

-Wait a second!-

Zhang Che suddenly turned his head to look at the Unicorn behind him, who he hadn’t recalled back into his spiritual sea.

That fellow, too, had a powerful elemental skill!

Even if it couldn’t kill that gigantic worm, the skill could hurt it at the very least, stopping it from chasing them. Otherwise, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon might not be able to successfully escape before the gigantic worm’s speed.

Blinding lightning immediately gathered on the Unicorn’s spiral horn, forming a mass of dazzling electrical light. In the next moment, it tore through the air, zapping the gigantic worm chasing after them.

The gigantic worm seemed to be extremely wary of the Unicorn’s Lightning of Purification skill and quickly dodged to the side.

However, something outside of Zhang Che’s expectation happened. The streak of lightning shot out by the Unicorn actually changed direction instantly, like a nail attracted to a magnet, striking the savage gigantic worm’s dark body.

An incomparably miserable cry rang out soundlessly. The savage gigantic worm, who had remained unharmed through the Scarlet Flame Drake and the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s combination attack, directly crumbled in mid air and turned into a cloud of smoke, which then scattered without a trace before a gust of wind.

Zhang Che watched blankly with his eyes wide. Before he could understand the underlying reason, a massive wave of mysterious energy came flooding into his spiritual sea like the tide, instantly leaving him feeling like he was filled up to the brim.

Under the effects of this enormous mysterious energy, the energy Zhang Che had absorbed previously seemed to appear from thin air and directly mixed with this mass of energy. Zhang Che’s brain felt like it was swelling up a little, causing him some pain.

-Did I eat too much of the energy am now suffering indigestion?- Zhang Che mocked himself, but felt very pleasantly surprised.

With this, the range which he could control the swords should be greatly expanded, right?

He immediately summoned the red sword from his spiritual sea and tried directing it. He couldn’t help but furrow his brow deeply.

Although his spiritual link with the sword had become incomparably close, as if the sword was an extension of his body, the range at which he could control it seemed to have hit a ceiling, unable to go any further than about fifty meters.

“Why is that so?” Zhang Che couldn’t understand, and he didn’t have the time to think now, either.

In his spiritual sea, perhaps the mysterious energy he had absorbed was too enormous, it left Zhang Che feeling slightly out of control.

Before he could show his surprise, the rainbow crystal floating high up in his spiritual sea suddenly emitted a blinding rainbow light.

In the next moment, under the rainbow light’s illumination, the massive mysterious energy quickly collapsed inwards and turned into a tiny point of light. It flew to just under the rainbow crystal and started spinning on the spot.

As it spun faster and faster, the tiny origin grew smaller and smaller, to the point that it was almost undetectable to Zhang Che.

While he was spacing out, a tiny golden vortex suddenly appeared in the same spot where the origin had disappeared.
