Chapter 154: Stone Forest (2)

As the crystalline scorpion shattered, all of the stone beasts howled angrily in unison

“It killed Laome!”

“How could it do that? Laome was so lovable It never attacked anyone”

“Laome, our pitiful Laoenerate itself yet But now it’s gone forever”

“Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!”

The sheer volume of the yells and howls almost shattered Su Chen’s eardrums

So the crystal hadn’t been the core of the forest, but rather a newborn of the forest It was just a delicate newborn, a newborn that couldn’t even revive yet; was that why it had re to attack?

And he had destroyed it with a single Whitetower Teleportation and a Flay Art?

This realization rendered Su Chen speechless

Indeed, common sense wasn’t always reliable The scorpion had seemed different from the other stone beasts, but that didn’t necessarily est; it could also mean that it was the weakest

However, this was not particularly salient More iered those stone creatures this time

All of the stone creatures howled ht appeared before Su Chen’s eyes

The beasts began to meld into each other as they fused before his very eyes

Their tough stone bodies seemed to be as soft as mud as they combined with one another and took on a new forood He wasn’t planning on waiting around to see what they would becohting that creature h common sense had failed him in this one instance, coestured, and a Flaht Not only that, but he ih his opponent was about to finish its fusion process, these attacks were noticeably stronger than before

However, the situation progressed in a way he had not anticipated The incoure was like a mud shi+eld, and it forcibly absorbed his powerful attack without changing shape at all It continued to squir on the form of a massive stone scorpion It looked quite similar to the crystalline scorpion he had killed earlier, but it wasin the air Its tail alone was hundreds of feet long, which it swung at Su Chen i It crashed down upon Su Chen with all thetorrent

Su Chen knew that this stone tail wasn’t so that he could casually knock aside like before The Primordial Blood Incarnation appeared, and dark flalow on its skin He unsheathed the Mountain-Beheading Blade, exploding forth with an immense amount of power in only an instant

Boom!

With a massive explosion, Su Chen was thrown backwards like a kite whose string had been cut The Priorously, and Su Chen was barely able to keep it active

“damn, that’s really powerful!” Su Chen exclaimed as he wiped away the traces of blood from the corner of his mouth He didn’t feel fear; instead, the exciterew thicker

Now this was a real battle!

There was no fooling around this ti before

The Primordial Blood Incarnation expanded frorew, so too did its strength at the price of its defensive capabilities and duration

Su Chen didn’t care about anything else now that he had finally encountered a powerful opponent He raised his strength to the peak, and the Mountain-Beheading Blade also grew correspondingly larger as lightning began to flicker across its surface

His body gloith dark fla across its edge The lightning and the fla that Su Chen had entered his most powerful state

“Come!” Su Chen yelled as he stabbed out with his blade

Plas forwards in a razor-sharp arc that threatened to bisect his opponent

The fused scorpion howled and clacked its two ether, then jabbed them at Su Chen
