From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword
Chapter 692 - 420: The Demise of the Demigod
CHAPTER 692: CHAPTER 420: THE DEMISE OF THE DEMIGOD
The overwhelming pressure emanating from the Skeleton Dragon is enough to crush anything within a 500-meter radius that’s lacking in spiritual power.
Except for Elf Clan members above captain level who can approach, any other Elf Warrior who steps within the 500-meter range will immediately suffer a mental breakdown, collapsing in a near-death state.
Though Lu Heng can withstand the spiritual pressure from the Skeleton Dragon, every few seconds there’s a reminder of spiritual power -1.
Therefore, Lu Heng dares not stay within the 500-meter range of the Skeleton Dragon for long, trying to remain at the edge of that distance to avoid losing his mind due to spiritual pollution.
Lu Heng’s movement technique is swift, moving on the ground like lightning to evade the Skeleton Dragon’s attacks.
As he passed by Terres, Terres quickly said:
"Let’s coordinate our attack; I’ll cover you, and you’re responsible for the final blow."
After speaking, Terres repositioned himself, dodged the magical flame breath, and rushed toward the Skeleton Dragon like an arrow released from a bow, unleashing the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.
Roar!
The massive Wind Dragon took shape, slamming into the Skeleton Dragon with immense wind pressure.
Roar!
The Skeleton Dragon spewed magical flames to counter the Wind Dragon, creating tsunami-like shockwaves of fiery magical flames, turning the vicinity into a purgatory within a kilometer.
The first Wind Dragon Breathless Slash did not penetrate the Skeleton Dragon’s defenses.
Lu Heng raised his hand to release his clone, which charged toward the Skeleton Dragon from both sides, and struck in unison with his clone before the power of Terres’ Wind Dragon Breathless Slash was exhausted.
Two Wind Dragons formed, assaulting the Skeleton Dragon from the left and right.
The Skeleton Dragon swung its Dragon Tail, piercing through the Wind Dragon on the left and raised its bone wings to block the one on the right.
The Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, fused with Rift Sword Radiance, left sword marks on the Skeleton Dragon’s bone wings and Dragon Tail but still failed to pose a lethal threat.
Although they failed to injure the Skeleton Dragon, they created an opportunity for Terres.
Terres surged forward, the Dragon’s Tooth unleashing a torrent of Divine Energy, slashing a Wind Dragon Breathless Slash reinforced by Divine Energy.
Roar!
A larger Wind Dragon soared into the sky, breaking through the Skeleton Dragon’s outer shield, tearing into its bones with countless Tornado Blades.
The opportunity appeared, and Terres immediately used his second sword skill, Flying Dragon Hunting Sky, stabbing horizontally towards the Skeleton Dragon’s eye sockets.
Roar!
The Skeleton Dragon emitted an earth-shaking roar, and magical flames in its eye sockets suddenly shot out, forming a Death Beam directed at Terres.
In this perilous moment, Terres quickly changed tactics, switching to Space Continuous Slash, slashing through space to enter the void and evade the Death Beam, then reemerging to stab toward the Black Crystal Skull in the dragon’s eye sockets.
Clang!
The Dragon’s Tooth pierced the left eye socket of the Skeleton Dragon, but as the sword tip entered, Terres sensed something was amiss.
For the sword tip met nothing, it pierced into the dragon’s eye socket but struck empty air.
The Skeleton Dragon’s eye socket was large, three meters in diameter, as Terres charged in, the magical flames closed in to burn him.
He swung his sword, releasing Sword Qi to push back the magical flames, glancing around only to find the Black Crystal Skull had moved to the other eye socket of the Skeleton Dragon.
Terres realized what was happening; as his sword tip was about to pierce the Black Crystal Skull, it vanished from its original spot, leaving only space ripples.
Evidently, the Black Crystal Skull had used Space Movement.
Seeing the Black Crystal Skull teleporting to the other eye socket, Terres, while the momentum of Space Continuous Slash remained, slashed once more into space, traversing the void before the magical flames engulfed him, and charged the other eye socket to strike the Black Crystal Skull again.
Clang!
The sword light fell like thunder.
However, this strike again met nothing, the Black Crystal Skull disappeared once more.
Terres glanced to the left side of the dragon’s head, seeing the Black Crystal Skull appearing again in the left eye socket.
Upon seeing this, Terres hesitated not at all, launching another Space Continuous Slash, cleaving through the void to chase the left eye socket.
Yet, just as he traversed to the left eye socket, the Black Crystal Skull vanished again, teleporting back to the right eye socket.
Terres pursued relentlessly, launching another Space Continuous Slash.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
In just a few breaths, Terres slashed seven times consecutively, shattering space to pursue the Black Crystal Skull seven times.
Yet, even as the Space Continuous Slash technique was exhausted, he still failed to touch the Black Crystal Skull.
This Black Crystal Skull continually teleported between the left and right eye sockets of the Skeleton Dragon, an endless cycle, seemingly without end.
The exhaustion of the Space Continuous Slash was but a momentary affair.
Lu Heng observed from outside as Terres executed seven consecutive slash pursuits, recognizing the Black Crystal Skull’s repetitive teleportation between the dragon’s eye sockets.
In an instant, Lu Heng’s mind arrived at a possible explanation.
Under normal circumstances, even a demigod could not continuously perform space movements.
This is a Space Department ability, not unusual for someone of demigod level to possess such power, but they couldn’t use it infinitely and continuously.
If the Black Crystal Skull constantly teleports amidst the magical flames in the dragon’s eye sockets, there’s only one possibility: a space connection exists between the left and right eye sockets.
The Black Crystal Skull uses the space connection to teleport back and forth unrestricted between these two points.
Thus, it hasn’t teleported elsewhere.
If that’s the case, the solution is simple: attack both points simultaneously, eventually hitting one of them.
"Let’s combine our attack!"
