Beast Taming: Slaughter Atlas-Chapter 405 - 352: The Death Wraith Serpent’s Terror
Chu Chen directly ordered Lei Yao to deal with the opponent as quickly as possible.
Upon receiving the order, Lei Yao immediately went all out, as the Ruyi Stick was instantly coated with a thick layer of Thunder Element. Its speed and power increased greatly.
The Thunder Element also had a paralyzing effect, causing the Abyss Demon Tiger to pause briefly after each attack.
For Lei Yao, this was an opening, and the injuries on the Abyss Demon Tiger’s body were increasing at an alarming rate.
If things continued, it was believed that the Abyss Demon Tiger would be beaten to death by Lei Yao before long.
At this moment, the Tiger Emperor watched the performance of the Abyss Demon Tiger, its gaze full of anger.
The Abyss Demon Tiger was its offspring, and this time it was sent out for training, not expecting to encounter such an opponent.
It was now in a difficult position; if Ying Wenjie were not present, even if the Abyss Demon Tiger were defeated, it could still be rescued.
But with Ying Wenjie here, if it intervened, the other side would certainly step in to block.
Thinking of this, the Tiger Emperor’s expression grew even more serious.
With the help of the Undead Army, the human side had already achieved a phase victory.
Originally numbering fifty thousand, the beast horde now had barely over twenty thousand after several battles, while the human side had less than five thousand people, with Guardian Beasts numbering fewer than three thousand. Of these, less than fifty percent maintained more than half their combat power, and the rest were injured soldiers.
At this time, the Death Serpent once again charged towards Nirvana, moving within moments to stand in front of Nirvana. This time, it did not use the Whip Tail but instead aimed to use Death Entanglement to directly slay Nirvana, fearing any other potential techniques it might have.
Seeing the aggressive Death Serpent, Nirvana dared not be careless, swiftly moving its feet to maintain a safe distance.
What Nirvana needed to do now was not to defeat the Death Serpent, but to delay for as long as possible.
The Death Serpent immediately understood Nirvana’s intentions, and wouldn’t let its opponent have its way.
In a twist of its snake body, it closed in again, its tail lashing out like a whip.
The snake tail turned into an afterimage, and at Nirvana’s speed, there was no way to evade.
With a dull thud, Nirvana was struck and sent flying.
Before Nirvana hit the ground, the Death Serpent rushed again.
Its snake’s mouth opened wide, and a piercing screech exploded by Nirvana’s ear.
This screech contained a rich power of the Undead, and its mode of attack was directly targeting the soul.
Nirvana felt a sharp stinging pain in its soul, its mind went blank, and even the Undead Army temporarily lost control.
At this moment, the Undead Army on the battlefield all stopped moving, their bodies shook then collapsed to the ground, reverting to cold corpses.
Everyone was shocked by this sight, immediately focusing on Chu Chen.
Chu Chen saw shock, confusion, and concern in their eyes...
Chu Chen did not respond, but furrowed his brows. The state of Nirvana was not optimistic; under the Death Serpent’s combo attack, it temporarily lost the ability to respond.
Seeing Nirvana being controlled by a single strike, the Death Serpent twisted its body around Nirvana, forming the Death Entanglement instantly.
Since transforming into an undead, the Death Serpent had lost its flesh, its body now consisting of only hard bones.
However, its application of Death Entanglement was even more terrifying, with the bone protrusions sharp like spikes.
The hard bones pierced through Nirvana’s Insect Armor instantly, the intense pain suddenly woke Nirvana up.
Upon awakening, rather than applying defense to itself, Nirvana immediately used Undead Summoning.
Those corpses, which had returned to the embrace of the earth, stood up once again.
This caused the beast horde, ready to counterattack, to halt in their tracks. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
The Death Serpent felt an incredible rage seeing Nirvana still using Undead Summoning, increasing the strength of its Death Entanglement by several degrees.
At this point, Nirvana’s Insect Armor had completely shattered, yet amid such intense pain, it continued to use Undead Summoning.
However, Nirvana had no intention of seeking death, immediately employing Limb Regeneration.
The wounds began healing rapidly, but the bone spikes still remained inside Nirvana. The Death Serpent needed only to apply slight force to shatter the Insect Armor again, bringing Nirvana into severe injury.
Thus, Nirvana had no choice but to continually use Limb Regeneration to sustain its life, all the while its aura perpetually rising.
The Death Serpent sensed Nirvana’s rising aura, and although it did not understand, fear emerged within it.
If the opponent’s aura continued to increase, it might soon surpass its own, and by then, it might be its own death.
Thinking this, the soul flames within the Death Serpent’s eye sockets turned exceptionally cold, its body compressing with maximum strength—it had to strangle the threat in its cradle.
Meanwhile, the City Defense Army launched a fierce counterattack. The fleeting disappearance of the undead made them realize the gravity of the situation.
Chu Chen’s Guardian Beast was supporting painstakingly. If they couldn’t hold out, defeat was inevitable. The only hope for victory lay in quickly eliminating the beast horde.
At this point, the battle between Lei Yao and the Abyss Demon Tiger also reached its climax.
Under Lei Yao’s onslaught, not a patch of intact fur could be found on the Abyss Demon Tiger, its body covered in stick marks, swollen all over.
When the Abyss Demon Tiger faced the incoming Ruyi Stick, it neither dodged nor evaded. Instead, it met the stick head-on with an attack towards Lei Yao, evidently driven to desperation.
Lei Yao, seeing this, had no intention of trading injuries. It swiftly pulled back, establishing distance.
Having dodged the attack, Lei Yao wanted to move in again to hold the opponent, but upon looking up, it discovered the Abyss Demon Tiger had already fled far away.
But it wasn’t fleeing; rather, it distanced itself from Lei Yao, preparing for a last stand.
At this time, the Death Serpent continued its Death Entanglement, but the ghost fire in its eyes flickered violently, its heart clearly unsettled.
Nirvana had by now utilized Limb Regeneration six times, with its aura finally reaching King Level.
However, the Death Entanglement was a highly potent attack from the Death Serpent; no Guardian Beast of equivalent ability could break free.
But six uses of Limb Regeneration were not Nirvana’s limit.
In the blink of an eye, Nirvana had completed seven uses, with its aura rising to King Level Second Rank.
Nirvana’s insect legs were no longer constricted or broken, as it gradually powered up, slowly escaping from the Death Entanglement.
The Death Serpent’s bones emitted cracking sounds, as if about to break at any moment.
Now, only two paths lay before it: first, to immediately release Nirvana.
Second, to have its bones torn apart.
A few seconds later, the Death Serpent seemed to reach its limit, not daring to hesitate a moment longer, it released Death Entanglement.
Its body twisted as it tried to flee, but at that moment, it was horrified to find a piercing pain from its tail, rendering it immobile.
It immediately turned its head to check, discovering Nirvana’s Ao Clamp firmly gripping its tail, and the wounds caused by the bone spikes were healing at an astonishing rate.
