Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1876 - 1877: True Form

Gripping the weapon found in the hidden room, Yang Hongzhi somewhat uncertainly asked Feng Yuan,

"Can this really deal with that thing?"

"It should be possible, right? We can’t actually bring in a Thunder Element Spirit Beast, can we? Of course, there’s another way, which is to channel all the electricity from the Mad Doctor’s Research Institute into that space, but that would be too cumbersome."

After thinking for a moment, Feng Yuan said. He indeed wasn’t sure if this weapon could truly eliminate that Chaos entity. After all, although the weapon was well-hidden, there were quite a few of them, at least enough that they could replace them immediately if the one in hand was damaged.

So many weapons, it’s hard to say if they were meant as consumable replacements for us. Of course, it could also be that we overthought it, and they were originally intended for larger teams.

"The operation has commenced."

Veronia glanced at Feng Yuan and Yang Hongzhi, saying this as she placed a specimen jar not far from the door. As the missing part of the Chaos entity approached, the Starry Sky once again appeared behind the door. However, this time everyone could see that the Starry Sky was slowly breaking through the limitations of the doorframe.

"A time-limited battle, is it? It’s up to you guys now. Xiao Ji, prepare the Death Storm!"

Watching Najia and Veronia charge into the Starry Sky, Feng Yuan shouted to Xiao Ji. Hearing Feng Yuan’s command, Xiao Ji flapped its wings, the Death Storm raging through the Starry Sky. The Starry Sky, which shouldn’t have life, seemed to have its Life Force taken away by the Death Storm as its vibrant colors slowly faded to gray.

Yang Hongzhi aimed at the bizarre stellar creature crawling out of the Starry Sky and squeezed the trigger. As if entangled by sticky tentacles of the Starry Sky, the shining stellar body gradually lost its light in the electromagnetic field. The sticky tentacles, like snails sprinkled with salt, quickly dehydrated and disintegrated. Soon, the bizarre stellar creature left only a broken Star Core on the ground.

"Strange, what the heck is this thing?"

Feng Yuan muttered softly to himself, looking again toward the doorway, where stellar creatures continued to crawl out from behind it. The sticky tentacles twisted together to form a humanoid shape, the stellar body perched on top like a head. Although Feng Yuan didn’t really understand why the Chaos entity, proficient in transforming metal creatures, had such minions, he knew very well that letting that thing break through the door would be a disaster.

In the Starry Sky, Veronia and Najia used thunder-element Ultimate Moves to continuously attack the Chaos entity. Initially, the gigantic metal monster could devour the thunder-element Ultimate Moves released by Veronia and Najia. However, as the battle went on, the opponent became increasingly affected by the thunder-element Ultimate Moves.

"Wait a minute..."

Noticing the Starry Sky becoming increasingly gray, Feng Yuan furrowed his brow. Xiao Ji was using the Death Storm to cover for Veronia and others, preventing monsters from sneaking up on them. However, the Death Storm seemed to have an unexpectedly strange effect.

Was the Starry Sky affected by the Death Storm? This isn’t right. Although Death Series Ultimate Moves have a special effect of stripping away Life Force, it doesn’t mean they should cause such obvious damage to the natural environment.

Xiao Ji called out in puzzlement, stopping its Ultimate Move to look at Feng Yuan. It couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off about this Starry Sky, and attacking with the Death Storm always felt peculiar.

"Veronia! Retreat first!"

Realizing something, Feng Yuan shouted loudly to Veronia and the others as the black shadow behind him waved its Sickle to attack. Black claws materialized out of thin air, grasping the connection between the Starry Sky and the door firmly.

The metal monster suddenly let out a loud howl, and its attack significantly intensified. However, the howl seemed to emanate from the entire Starry Sky. Veronia and Najia exchanged a glance, using thunder-element Ultimate Moves while retreating toward the door.

"Is it really a trap? Well, this is..."

Glancing at Xiao Ji beside him, Feng Yuan said helplessly, pointing to where Veronia and the others were. They had never imagined that the internal metal monster was just a decoy and that the so-called Chaos entity referred to the entire Starry Sky, or rather, that the Starry Sky itself was the stomach of the Chaos entity.

Mimic Monster? Feng Yuan couldn’t help but think. However, due to the consistent metallic nature of the plague’s manifestation, they hadn’t considered the possibility that the Chaos entity was a mimicking Starry Sky. Primarily, the enormous metal monster within the Starry Sky was too misleading.

"Xiao Ji! Attack with a Death Series Ultimate Move, but be careful not to use space-tearing Moves!"

The black shadow had already charged into the Starry Sky, with black claws constantly manifesting to grab the huge tentacles blended with the Starry Sky. Whether due to its camouflage or inherent stealth capability, the numerous tentacles were utterly invisible and undetectable in both sight and perception.

Only upon actual contact would one realize there was something there. But once touched, the tentacles would ensnare you, making escape difficult.

As the black claws emitted by the black shadow grasped the tentacles, they were also bound by them. Yet, the ever-increasing number of black claws inadvertently outlined the general contour of the tentacles for everyone.

"Ha, do they think such a trap can stop us?"

Smirking, Veronia waved her hand. A crystallization phenomenon appeared around her, continuously spreading. As it affected its surroundings, the originally Starry Sky-blended tentacles were crystallized and finally revealed their true form.

"Tsk! It’s truly... a bit creepy."

Taking a step back, Feng Yuan muttered, although the crystallization was limited to a certain area, within this small crystalized region, a multitude of tentacles could be seen frozen in that moment of crystallization.

This Starry Sky was indeed the stomach of the Chaos entity. Those tentacles... could they be like tripe? A layer of thick fur?

Shaking his head, Feng Yuan quickly pulled himself out of his thoughts. If he continued this way, he would end up disgusting himself.

"It was really dangerous, wasn’t it? I didn’t expect it to be like this."

Upon returning to the room with Najia, Veronia said with a cold smile. The crystallization had a clearly suppressive effect on the Chaos entity, with a portion already transformed into beautiful crystals.

Yang Hongzhi looked at Najia with lingering fear, saying,

"Are you okay? Now we..."

"Now that its true form is exposed, dealing with it shouldn’t be too complicated. Moreover, this proves that this weapon is actually useless, huh～"

Glancing at the weapon in Feng Yuan’s hand, Veronia said this and turned her attack towards the Starry Sky again. Feng Yuan recalled the effect on the stellar creature when hit by the electromagnetic field and felt puzzled.

If this thing specifically targeted the decoy metal monster, then what about the stellar creature before? If it also worked on the Chaos entity itself, that seemed odd too.

"Energy structure?"

Najia, perched on Yang Hongzhi’s shoulder, pondered. Suddenly it spoke, having realized something, much like Feng Yuan. Najia was similarly perplexed by the situation, wondering if the electromagnetic weapon was a part of the trap. If so, how were they to counter the Chaos entity? Did they really need to use Veronia’s extreme approach to transform and destroy it?

Meanwhile, Yang Hongzhi continued to deal with the stellar creatures emerging from behind the door. Observing how those creatures vanished, Najia seemed to grasp something.

"Is the method to deal with the Chaos entity to destroy its energy structure? It seems... plausible, Xiao Ji, try using an Explosive Technique."

Upon hearing Najia’s suggestion, Feng Yuan realized something and instructed Xiao Ji. Veronia glanced at Feng Yuan and said,

"Are you sure you want to do this? Be careful not to trigger a space collapse."

"Xiao Ji’s power isn’t sufficient to cause a space collapse, and perhaps this is the method allowed here?"

Without explaining much, Feng Yuan signaled Xiao Ji to proceed. Although unsure of Feng Yuan’s intentions, Xiao Ji still unleashed its explosive Ultimate Move on the Chaos entity. The powerful explosion shook the entire Mad Doctor’s Research Institute, causing the Starry Sky to flicker erratically.

Amid the intense explosion, the Starry Sky melted away like fading paint, revealing a strange rocky shell beneath.

"Is this the true essence of the Chaos entity?"

Looking at the gray-black rock, Yang Hongzhi muttered in astonishment.
