Bizarre Realm-Chapter 416 - 41: Evil Object - Pillar of Flesh and Blood_3
——Pillar of Flesh and Blood [Evil Object] (Challenge Level 18)!
This massive evil object, bursting from the ground, revealed its body to be about 120 meters long, with an even longer fleshy conduit beneath the ground. It emerged from the earth like a worm, spanning nearly a hundred meters as it pursued others, its sharp mouthparts grinding through rock like cutting through tofu, then burrowing its head back underground.
"Attack its exposed body!"
On both sides of the battlefield, Demon Mages began casting spells. In an instant, dozens of spells fell like dazzling flames onto the body of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood. Amid the booming explosions, blood sprayed everywhere. However, the wounds quickly vanished, as the Pillar of Flesh and Blood had a powerful Regeneration Ability, and most of the damage could be transferred to the body underground.
"Is this damn thing that tough?" Mordain the Heartbreaker shouted as he sprinted to evade, raising the Purgatory Roar Hand Cannon to counterattack.
The Rune Bullets exploded with a bang, creating flesh craters about a meter in diameter upon impact.
Ordinary transcendents would die instantly from one shot, but the Pillar of Flesh and Blood withstood dozens of shots without any issues. Numerous flesh pits were simply transferred elsewhere.
This damn thing has no fatal weaknesses, almost immune to any heavy blow.
The flesh of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood endured dozens of spells without issue, and it began to split. From both sides, numerous flesh tendrils sprouted, and upon touching the fresh blood and corpses on the ground, they rapidly mutated and grew into numerous dark red writhing tentacles up to three or four meters long.
They possessed strength close to the Shadow Black Tentacles but were not constructs of spells; instead, they were fleshy animations.
——Advanced Acceleration Skill!
A spell landed on the others, and Shawn’s figure flashed out. The moment his hand touched the ground, countless sharp Earth Spikes emerged. The Lord of the Underworld’s authority allowed direct control over the Earth’s Element Domain Laws. He glanced at the cliffs on both sides, and in the next second, the world seemed to collapse, with numerous rocks crashing down from the sky.
——Earthquake Skill!
——Gravity Reversal!
With a rumble, one side of the cliff directly fractured, and a sharp boulder plummeted from the sky at an incredible speed. With a piercing wail from the Pillar of Flesh and Blood, tens of thousands of tons of cliff fragments severed its protruding body in half.
Anti-gravity could make objects levitate or accelerate their fall. Shawn could currently manipulate up to tens of thousands of tons of heavy objects.
However, in actual combat, he didn’t have the time to maneuver heavy objects to fall unless he had a powerful Dharma Artifact similar to the Heaven-Flipping Seal. This ability was currently used in conjunction with the Earthquake Skill. Normal anti-gravity first raises the object before it falls, which takes too long to cast, making it ineffective against powerful enemies.
——Earth Lock!
Numerous rocks transformed into stone pillar prisons, imprisoning the severed Pillar of Flesh and Blood. The part that emerged from the ground acted independently, trying to dig open the rocks with its toothy mouth to reconnect to the underground fleshy conduit. They could regenerate limbs and reconnect to the network of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood’s conduits. At the severed wound, the flesh and blood became grotesque, with countless teeth emerging, and even a massive eyeball one meter in diameter appeared on the skin surface. It emitted a mind-splitting shriek while retreating back into the Underworld.
——Flesh Fusion!
Shawn’s figure flashed out, and the moment his hand touched the severed limb, a bizarre meatball about thirty meters in diameter appeared. The divided part of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood was instantly confined, with dozens of meters of flesh merging into a meatball. However, unlike other creatures previously caught by this spell, its twisted body could still reshape and revert to its original worm-like physiological structure.
This was its resistance to the Transformation Ability.
——Advanced Missile Storm!
The sky filled with Arcane Missiles shooting out. Once the link between the Pillar of Flesh and Blood and the main conduit was severed, its Damage Transfer Ability failed. Next was a saturating strike to completely destroy its flesh.
This segment of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood was definitely doomed, but Shawn had no means to deal with the part that escaped into the Underworld.
A dozen minutes later, the battle ended.
"Clear the battlefield."
"Stay on guard."
Shawn began recording the battle data. Dozens of Reconnaissance Demon Eyes recorded the entire battle process. He not only noted the monsters’ bizarre abilities but also the coordination of each warband. Later on, the personnel would be redeployed.
"The Pillar of Flesh and Blood isn’t particularly hard to kill; it’s just a bit of a hassle," Shawn thought to himself.
The Invisible Hand used the Magic Pen to document a Chapter in the Monster Encyclopedia.
The mysterious Knowledge in his brain rapidly evolved into a data stream, converting all the enemies that appeared in the entire battle into a Monster Encyclopedia, recording the various abilities and talents they had displayed.
——Pillar of Flesh and Blood [Evil Object]: Traits include Damage Transfer, Flesh Regeneration, Tentacle-type Animation, Extraordinary Power, Extraordinary Constitution, Dominating Touch of Flesh and Blood, Mind Whispers, and Body Splitting Regeneration. (Challenge Level 18, Challenge Difficulty A.)
It can be killed.
Shawn could single-handedly take on the Pillar of Flesh and Blood.
However, in the deepest parts of the Bizarre Realm’s Inner Earth World, there are millions of such Pillars of Flesh and Blood. Even if you kill those that emerge in the surface world, there are countless more inside the Inner Earth World, and for every one killed, many more will hatch again in the Earth Core area.
Comparing to the human body’s blood vessels, the Touch of Flesh and Blood is like capillaries, the Pillar of Flesh and Blood is like veins, and in the deepest depths of the Inner Earth World, there are arteries eroding to the Earth’s Core.
In the Bizarre Realm, you’ll never have to worry about lacking monsters to fight because across the entire planet, aside from a few Witch King Cities that can supply, everywhere else is a monstrous corrupted nest.
