Divine-level Base-Chapter 99: Giant Monster
(P.S.: This novel will be monetized after 12:00 PM. Expect a mass release of Chapters afterward!)
"It seems my guess was correct. Someone from inside the family sent you to kill me. You were able to find me because there’s a traitor among my people. To kill me, you all went so far as to collude with Void Demons."
"Is the position of Patriarch really so alluring that you’d cast aside familial bonds and the greater good of our people? All I’ve ever wanted in this life is to live peacefully with a few dear companions and friends I can trust with my life."
"I’ve already told Eldest Brother and Third Brother that I have no desire to compete for the position of Patriarch. Why won’t they just leave me alone?"
Li Xuan Yi said with a dejected sigh.
"For an ordinary family, a dispute over a single house can tear them apart in court, causing endless strife. But the Patriarch of an Upper-Grade Noble Family can easily command hundreds of billions, even trillions, in funds. In their territory within the Erosion Realm, they are like an Emperor, holding the lives of everyone in their domain in the palm of their hand. For a position like that, it’s no surprise that people would resort to any means necessary."
"Li Xuan Yi, your Talent may be unmatched in the Li Family, but you’re ultimately too naive. As a Legitimate Son of the Li Family, your very existence is a threat to the others’ rights of succession, even if you do nothing. So, just be a good boy and die!"
A cold glint flashed in the Dragon Head Masked Man’s eyes. He drew a Magic Sword, and his figure blurred as he shot toward Li Xuan Yi.
"Sorry, but even though it’s come to this, I don’t want to die just yet!"
Li Xuan Yi left behind these faint words, aimed his Spiritual Spear at a nearby patch of ruins, and fired.
A beam of light blasted into the ruins with a massive BOOM.
Suddenly, a terrifying, evil, and incomparably savage aura emanated from within the ruins.
RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
The ground began to tremble. A giant, twenty-meter-tall humanoid monster, its body covered in human faces and its head constructed from more than a dozen of them, emerged from the earth.
The eyes on the faces covering the giant monster’s head swiveled, locking onto Li Xuan Yi and the Dragon Head Masked Man respectively.
’This is bad!!’
A chilling premonition of death surged through the Dragon Head Masked Man’s heart. His Spiritual Qi flared, and he kicked off a wall, rapidly retreating.
The giant monster’s head suddenly split open, revealing two enormous, grotesque eyes. The eyes swiveled, locking onto Li Xuan Yi and the Dragon Head Masked Man.
A strange, dark ripple emerged from those two bizarre eyes.
Li Xuan Yi retreated rapidly. A cyan Jade Token flew out from his neck, shining with a cyan light and creating a cyan Barrier.
The moment the cyan Barrier appeared, it immediately emitted a SIZZLING sound.
Li Xuan Yi’s body trembled, his face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of corrupted blood. As soon as the blood sprayed out, it transformed into writhing, centipede-like worms. His figure swayed slightly, and he soared like a wild goose toward a derelict building.
The Dragon Head Masked Man also trembled slightly, black smoke billowing from his body as he spat out an arrow of blood. When the blood hit the ground, it also transformed into strange, twisting worms. His figure blurred, and he too fled into the distance.
The grotesque, giant-like monster hesitated for a moment. In the end, its eyes flashed with a savage light as it gave frantic chase in the direction of the Dragon Head Masked Man.
To this monster, the powerful Spiritual Pressure emanating from the Dragon Head Masked Man was an exquisite delicacy. It scrambled on all fours, frantically pursuing him.
RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
The monster covered in human faces was tall with long legs, and its speed was terrifying. It rapidly closed the distance with the Dragon Head Masked Man.
"Damn you! Since you’re looking for death, I’ll grant your wish!"
A vicious glint flashed in the Dragon Head Masked Man’s eyes. With a flick of his hand, a black Demon Spear, engraved with a black snake and emanating a bizarre aura, appeared. He spun around and blasted it at the monster.
A phantasmal black snake shot out, viciously striking one of the eyes on the monster’s head.
A layer of distorted black light materialized over the monster’s eye, clashing with the black phantom for a moment. Then, in a flash, the phantasmal snake pierced through the light and struck the monster’s eyeball.
The Giant monster shrieked in pain as its eye exploded. A large amount of black pus spurted out, splattering onto the ground and corroding holes into the earth.
A sharp glint flashed in the Dragon Head Masked Man’s eyes. ’This monster isn’t so tough after all! I can take it down!’
Just then, the eyes all over the Giant monster’s body opened one by one, only to immediately explode. Waves of bizarre, distorted ripples spread out in all directions.
The Dragon Head Masked Man was caught in the strange ripples. His Protective Membrane of Spiritual Power instantly collapsed, and black smoke billowed from his body. He trembled, and blood streamed from his seven orifices.
The Ghost-devouring Demons lurking nearby also trembled slightly. Blood flowed from their seven orifices, their Void Demon Membranes nearly collapsed, and they curled into balls.
Li Xuan Yi, who was rushing through a large building, trembled. Black smoke erupted from his body as he vomited a large mouthful of corrupted blood. With blood flowing from his seven orifices, he collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, unable to move.
The Giant monster’s one remaining eye locked onto the Dragon Head Masked Man, emitting waves of distorted, bizarre black light.
Wisps of bizarre smoke once again appeared on the Dragon Head Masked Man’s body. He spat out a mouthful of corrupted blood, clenched his jaw, and took out a Jade Talisman, crushing it.
A green light enveloped the Dragon Head Masked Man, increasing his speed by forty percent. After a few leaps, he vanished into a ruined building.
"Demon Blade Claw!"
As the Dragon Head Masked Man rushed into the ruins, he saw three Spirit Master-level Ghost-devouring Demons charge straight at him. Three Demon Blade Claws shot viciously toward him.
A vicious light flashed in the Dragon Head Masked Man’s eyes. He drew a Spirit Sword he carried with him and slashed out. The strike, like a meteor, instantly hit the three Spirit Master-level Ghost-devouring Demons. A terrifying Sword Qi erupted, slicing them in two in mid-air and splattering blood everywhere.
SWOOSH!
Just then, an arrow that looked like a dark moon shot from the distance like a meteor, flying straight for the Dragon Head Masked Man.
Camilla, hidden far away, had finally fired her killing shot.
CLANG!
An incredibly strong Spiritual Power Membrane appeared on the Dragon Head Masked Man. The Dark Moonlight Arrow struck the Spirit Sect Level Spiritual Power Membrane, barely managing to pierce it before hitting the Dragon Head Masked Man’s mask and bouncing away.
