Chapter 386 – Mortal Crash (1/2)
Octahead's body of ten kilometers long was like a floating mountain range, its nine heads were like volcanoes erupting with spells of different attributes.
The Xuanhuang experts had the ability to rival Octahead, Fatty didn’t. His current strength was so poor that even dealing damage could already be regarded as a good job.
The Elemental Skill Book hovered in front of Fatty, flipping pages like crazy as it blasted out ice and water spells at Octahead’s own, annihilating each other in mid-air.
In the Elemental Mystery Realm, fire energy was most abundant, yet what Fatty lacked the most was actually fire magic spells. He had nothing else to choose from but ice and water.
The amount of ice and water energy in the Elemental Secret Realm steadily declined substantially as water and frost dragons appeared to entangle with Octahead’s water head. Occasionally, icicles would hit without dealing much damage, and the beast’s lost HP would be recovered in the blink of an eye.
Fatty smeared all kinds of poisons on the Elemental sword. Although these poisons weren’t much of a threat to Octahead, they managed to cause some trouble at least.
Octahead shrieked with all nine shaking heads and attacked more fiercely as time passed. The two sides got more heated the more they fought and it was now a life-or-death struggle between them, both just wanted to handle the other as soon as possible.
“Rapletely black.
The strongest three of the group had smashed three heads. While the other five deputy marshals couldn’t achieve the same thing, they still wiped out a great deal of Octahead’s health. Fatty’s harvest was pitiful compared to everyone else.
His biggest killer was the Elemental Sword Diagram, which could only be used if the other party was trapped inside. In the face of a huge and powerful beast like Octahead, the diagram was like a double-edged sword that would hurt Fatty if he wasn’t careful. Therefore, Fatty had been hesitant to use it.
Reck and Lucas both came to help. Lucas' space magic allowed his movements to be sudden and elusive, while Reck sprinkled tons of poison that made Octahead numb one second and dizzy the next. Together, the trio barely managed to keep the water head busy.
After the three smashed heads regrew one after another, Octahead’s eighteen eyes glowed with murderous light. Aside from the last time it had been defeated by the sacred beast Azure Dragon, Octahead had never been this seriously injured before. The successive injuries had triggered its rage.
The Sun Dynasty had a few Divine experts didn’t mean it couldn’t even provide a helper to Octahead. However, in the previous war with Xuanhuang Ancient Country, the Sun Dynasty had failed badly, resulting in most of their God-tier experts having to rely on the Shrine of Peace to survive – just like the five Demon Kings who depended on the Death Altar to prolong their existence, unable to come to help.
“You lot shall pay the price!” Octahead bellowed in rage and gave up attacking. In unison, the nine heads recited an incantation, and violent magic fluctuations spread through the air.
“That’s the Dark Blood Mantra.” Iron Eagle’s expression was that of shock and fear.
A huge, black hexagonal magic formation loomed over Octahead. The formation emitted monstrous demonic miasma and the sound of water was heard from inside where a deep red river flowed slowly. In this big river, numerous bizarre-looking monsters roamed.
“When darkness curtains, evil destroys the world!” Once the incantation was finished, Octahead roared. The huge magic formation collapsed immediately, and the heavens and earth turned into sheer darkness filled with only the sounds of hair-raising screams and howls.
Seen from a distance, it looked just like a huge black ball had firmly engulfed this area. Thunderous noises of a storm and misery could be heard ceaselessly, but nothing could be seen.
“Be careful, everyone!” Iron Eagle and the experts each launched their own nation to repel this horrible blood. The blood was extremely corrosive. Fatty witnessed a deputy marshal hit by it, and then in just a moment half of his health was gone accompanied by sizzling sounds.
“Noooooo, my Sky City!” Hiding in Lin Xi’s nation, Fatty looked at Sky City. At the moment, it was like the end of the world. Sky City was lifeless as if all living beings had been corroded into nothingness by the blood.
A bright mass lit up Sky City, which was the restarting of the Thunderstorm Formation. Blinding lightning and blood clashed with rumbling noises, but the lightning only erupted very briefly before it gradually dimmed down, unable to stop the gradual invasion.
“You really thought I would be sitting here waiting to die?” In the darkness, Octahead’s smug voice resounded. However, the strength in this voice was slightly deficient, obviously having a difficult time after casting this magic.
“Dark Blood Mantra. You must have prepared it for quite a long time?” asked Iron Eagle with flashing eyes.
“Hahaha, not very long. The preparation started once we knew you were coming and only finished just now,” a charming voice resounded from another place. The faces of the Xuanhuang experts immediately become ugly.
“Nine-tailed fox.”
“Yes, it’s me. I bet you never expected this, we have been waiting for you for a long time.”
Fatty looked over in the direction of the voice to see a monster no smaller than Octahead sitting on a high mountain. This monster was pure white, its nine tails wagging from side to side behind, looking very comfortable.
“One marshal, two city lords, five deputy marshals, Sky City, plus two treasures of the Elementalist. That’s a jackpot. It’s truly worth me coming all the way here.” The nine-tailed fox's voice wasn’t loud and was so full of charm that softly hit the ears, and made Fatty feel sleepy.
