Chapter 1683 - The Formidable Nine Snake (2/2)
Deep in the hive, even Lin Huang clearly sensed the tremor.
”Truly worthy of a being who's almost an ultimate-rank Lord.” Lin Huang's Divine Telekinesis traversed the void, allowing him to clearly see that practically all the Divine Magic Winged Bug's wings that had reverted to their original form had faint cracks on them.
He could also distinctly sense that the Divine Magic Winged Bug's aura had slumped significantly.
However, what he could not see was that the bodies of many True God fighters in the bug formation had instantly ruptured from the impact of the earlier attack. A small number of Bug Tribe Heavenly Gods also died at the same time.
Nine Snake could be considered to have held almost nothing back in this attack. The strength of the assault had obviously exceeded what the bug formation could sustain in terms of force.
This impact, which was over the limits of what the bug formation could sustain, automatically spread through the inner sections of the formation, killing many Bug Tribe fighters.
However, Nine Snake did not seem to be fully satisfied with the result of this attack.
He could not help frowning slightly when he saw that the bug formation had not been destroyed by the assault and that the Divine Magic Winged Bug's aura had only decreased slightly.
”I'd like to see how many more hits you can take!”
Nine Snake attacked again as soon as he finished speaking.
The giant python shadow over his head locked onto the Divine Magic Winged Bug as its target, and the inky-black snake tail lashed through the air again.
This time, the Divine Magic Winged Bug did not dare delay its response to the attack. It flapped all one hundred and eight pairs of wings suddenly and swiftly moved.
It had witnessed how powerful Nine Snake was and did not dare meet the attack head-on.
However, right at that moment, the black snake tail abruptly split into countless snake heads, hurtling like a giant net toward the Divine Magic Winged Bug to try and encompass it.
The Divine Magic Winged Bug speeded up to its limits to try and escape. However, the snake heads frenziedly divided over and over again until, at last, they enveloped the Bug's body entirely.
Its one hundred and eight pairs of wings turned into sharp blades, slicing at the snake heads that had divided multiple times. Sparks flew as the blades sliced down, leaving no trace behind at all.
Currently, the Divine Magic Winged Bug had been reduced to a bird in a cage.
However, the cage kept on getting smaller. The snake heads continued shrinking; in the end, everything was swallowed up entirely.
Right at that moment, the Ten Thousand Bug Maze suddenly began to shake.
Lin Huang thought the Bug Tribe had more tricks up its sleeve and wanted to mount a rescue. However, he soon sensed a wave of immense dimensional power.
”They're trying to escape?!” Lin Huang was stunned for a moment but realized why an instant later.
This move seemed ruthless, but it was actually a wise one.
They were no match for their opponent; the entire hive would fall into enemy hands if the battle dragged on. Naturally, the best choice was to sacrifice a proverbial pawn to save the queen.
Before the Divine Winged Magic Bug was completely annihilated, they would seize the opportunity to escape!
The hive immediately tore open a space rift and headed straight for the deep reaches of the heavens. Clearly, they had made escape preparations much earlier.
However, fleeing was not going to be as easy as it seemed.
Before Nine Snake stepped in to fight, he had communicated with Scarlet Fox and Silver through voice transmission, telling them to watch the hive. He wanted to prevent it from escaping.
He had crossed paths with the Bug Tribe in the universe numerous times and had seen them playing similar tricks many times over.
Since Scarlet Fox and Silver had lost their battles, naturally, they did not dare neglect Nine Snake's order. On the surface, it looked as if they were fully concentrating on watching the battle. In reality, they had never stopped covertly observing the hive with Divine Telekinesis.
As soon as the hive made the slightest move, both of them noticed and intercepted it immediately.
As the two upper-rank Lords joined forces, the space rift that the hive had torn open was instantly obliterated.
Half the hive that had initially made it through the rift into space was sent rebounding right back. The escape plan was considered a total failure!
