Chapter 687: Chapter 288: The Demon’s Gene (6k)_2
The whole process didn’t even last a second, the Demons hadn’t reacted yet, only to realize belatedly that their leader had disappeared without them knowing when, throwing them into chaos.
The sudden change left the Demons unable to respond, but the Sea Sons were ready, immediately advancing at top speed.
Their bodies also began to gradually transform, changing into a more battle-suited form.
In the distance, the offspring who had been prepared all along revealed themselves, sweeping towards the battlefield, ready to trap and annihilate the Demons here!
The Demons, who still held the advantage just moments ago, were suddenly plunged into extreme disadvantage, forced to fight against the offspring that outnumbered them by dozens.
Though they didn’t understand why these "compatriots" suddenly turned on them, they weren’t afraid of a fight. As long as they could hold on until their leader, the 8th Rank Great Demon, returned, these enemies wouldn’t be a problem...
But their thoughts were abruptly interrupted as a dazzling white light lit up the seabed from the ocean’s surface, with a heart-palpitating energy erupting over the sea.
Hope was extinguished before it could even arise.
The familiar sensation mixed in with that energy fluctuation made them realize one thing: their leader, the Great Demon, had fallen...
Ten seconds ago, above the ocean surface
A spatial fluctuation blinked away as the 8th Rank Great Demon was thrown out from teleportation, plummeting from the sky under gravity’s effect.
During the brief moment of teleportation, it had already realized it had likely encountered humans, ambushed with Space Ability and pulled out from its favored ocean environment.
Simultaneously, it also confirmed another fact from the strength of this Space Ability: this opponent was not more powerful than it!
It was just a victim of unfamiliarity with the Space Ability, in a real fight, the opponent definitely wouldn’t be its match!
Especially since it sensed the ocean was not far away, being only lifted to high above the ocean surface, it would take just ten seconds to fall back to sea!
With the ocean’s Support, it believed its power was absolutely invincible among the same ranks!
Even against those 9th Rank Great Demons, as long as abilities weren’t countered, it could hold its own!
Without hesitation, it immediately unleashed all its power, trying to locate the enemy.
But surprisingly, the weaker opponent didn’t seem to have any intent to hide, standing not far from it.
"Well then, just reaching the Seventh Rank and daring to fight me, I’ll show you why we are Great Demons!"
Twisting its body mid-air, it was about to make this fearless attacker experience the crushing force of its power.
But before it could make a move, the attack struck it first.
The Corrosion seeping through every inch of skin and cuticle made it lose control, dark writhing Blood Flesh began to emerge, rapidly consuming its body.
This was Bai Yi’s Wither!
After her superpower’s simultaneous advancement, "Wither" transformed again, showcasing her power with its unending priority.
Now, even 7th Rank targets found it hard to withstand, and even protective Magic Power became nourishment for the Fungus Blanket amid Wither!
Almost instantly, the Great Demon felt its entire body covered in an abnormal layer of Blood Flesh, hindering its movements significantly.
If that were all, it wouldn’t be a big deal for it.
The erosion was formidable, even comparable to several 9th Rank Great Demons it knew, but eliminating it would still take time.
As for the Blood Flesh, they weren’t strong, capable of purging with a single outburst of power.
But just as it prepared to execute its plan, it was surprised to find, not only its flesh, but even its Magic Power seemed restricted by something, hard to mobilize.
It felt like a new consciousness had suddenly been born inside it, beginning to vie for control of its body, Blood Flesh clung on uncured, now burdened with an internal consciousness, it was truly disastrous...
"Damn, who is it? Possessing such means!"
Inwardly fearful, this time the Great Demon had truly encountered a rival!
Yet fortunately, despite suffering the unknown tactics of the enemy’s successive attacks, several seconds had passed, and the ocean’s surface was near!
As long as it returned to the ocean for augmentation, no matter the opponent...
"Ha, the struggle with that unknown consciousness suddenly eased? This ability indeed has its limits!
Let me then..."
Before the Great Demon’s inner elation was over, its vision was entirely filled with white light.
Boom—
A descending beam of Light struck the ocean, boiling a vast stretch of water, momentarily illuminating the pitch-black sky with blazing brightness.
"Excellent, an 8th Rank Great Demon, a single shot can evaporate roughly 81% of its blood volume in just two seconds.
Truly a miracle under Xuanxing’s trump card, an exemplar of might producing miracles, this power is quite impressive."
High above, Bai Yi calmly appraised the strike.
Led by Bai Yi, Ju stood ethereally beside her, and higher up, at the origin point of the light beam, a giant cannon pieced together by hundreds of Mechanical Brain Worms was disassembling slowly.
Behind them in the night sky, more points of light roved under the darkness, their numbers indiscernible.
