Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 140: Chapter 96: The Road to Survival (Part 5) _1

”Soul Pet Augmentation, Mortal Combat.”

It did not work!

The Ancient Demon’s Demon Blood Seal rendered the Soul Pet Augmentation ineffective!

”Soul Pet Augmentation, Blood and Flesh Badge!”

As the Mysterious Power swept over Wen Yu’s body, he felt some inexplicable and indescribable changes!

Withdrawing an Energy Recovery Potion (Small) from his space ring, he swallowed it in a gulp and felt his lost stamina rapidly rejuvenating. He then took out the Berserk Potion.

A slightly bitter taste spread in his mouth, accompanied by an incomparable sense of power. Under the augmentation of the Berserk Potion, Wen Yu’s physical attributes in combat were directly boosted to 224 points!

The Touch of Greed quickly elongated, and Wen Yu slowly walked towards the Ancient Demon!

Kill him, or be killed!

There would be no compromise, not even with such a significant gap in strength!

Behind him, William and Jiang Wentao followed closely.

”Damn, I’ve really gone crazy! Fighting against a monster that could kill me with a fart, it’s freaking...”

Cussing under his breath, Chu Ziling hesitated for less than a second, grit his teeth, and followed Wen Yu and the others.

The few people present, including the professionists who had moved Feina to safety, knew a life-and-death battle with the Ancient Demon before them was inevitable!

Often, even in a battle doomed to fail, one had to brace themselves and fight for an outcome! Besides, where could they run?

...

The first to attack was the one farthest from the Ancient Demon—Burly Bear!

BANG!

The bullet, enhanced with Skill Effects, aimed at the Ancient Demon’s skull.

CRACK.

A sound of shattering echoed!

The scales on the Ancient Demon’s head were directly shattered by Burly Bear’s sniper rifle, revealing slightly purple flesh underneath.

But that was all.

The Ancient Demon touched the wound on its head, from which a slight trace of blood oozed.

”KEKEKE! Truly an interesting toy!”

The Ancient Demon had a murderous look in its pitch-black eyes.

Then, its figure flashed.

The target of its attack was none other than the strongest present, Wen Yu!

The wind from its sharp claw as it slashed down was like a blade, making Wen Yu’s face sting.

Wen Yu activated his dislimning ability in response, narrowly dodging the Ancient Demon’s direct hit!

However, the price was a rapid loss of stamina!

But it wasn’t over yet.

The Ancient Demon simply had too many ways to attack!

Wen Yu’s Touch of Greed, upon barely contacting the Ancient Demon’s body, was slapped away, barely leaving a mark on its scales.

BANG!

The sound of gunfire rang out again.

This time, the shot was targeted, as before, at the Ancient Demon’s skull!

Burly Bear’s second ability was activated!

Two-Point Connection (B-level, Active Ability): When activated, the long-range attack’s hit rate significantly increases for one minute! The cooldown time is twenty-four hours!

This ability, in the hands of someone unskilled with a gun, would be enough to turn them into a sharpshooter, let alone someone like Burly Bear, who was already one!

And Burly Bear was aiming precisely at the wound on the Ancient Demon’s forehead!

If one bullet couldn’t cause significant damage, what about two? Or three?

At this moment, the sniper rifle in Burly Bear’s hands became the most powerful source of firepower among all the professionists present!

”ROAR! You bastard!!”

The bullet struck the wound on the Ancient Demon’s forehead squarely.

Flesh splattered from the wound. This time, the Ancient Demon could no longer claim that the sniper rifle in Burly Bear’s hand was a toy!

”I’ll slaughter you first!”

With its vast combat experience, the Ancient Demon immediately identified the greatest source of danger. Its tail lashed out at Jiang Wentao, who was behind it!

The sharp tail tip sliced across Jiang Wentao’s body. Given the immense difference in their physical attributes, Jiang Wentao was like a rag doll as his legs were severed instantly!

His body uncontrollably fell forward, then his right hand grabbed the Ancient Demon’s ankle!

The Ancient Demon was about to turn and rush towards Burly Bear when Jiang Wentao’s grip hindered it, forcing a brief pause!

BANG!

Another shot.

The target was still the Ancient Demon’s forehead!

This shot struck the Ancient Demon’s exposed skull. A harsh grating sound echoed as the bullet was deflected.

However, cracks had already appeared on the Ancient Demon’s skull!

”Die!”

The Ancient Demon sensed the danger and roared in fury, exerting force with its right foot to fling Jiang Wentao, who was clinging to its leg, away.

TING!

It was the sound of William’s Heavy Sword striking the Ancient Demon.

The inflicted damage was not severe, but it was enough to make the Ancient Demon stagger slightly.

Behind the Ancient Demon, a figure engulfed in white flames landed a punch on its back.

The white Sovereign Flame burned on the Ancient Demon for less than a second before being extinguished by its Demonic Qi.

At this moment, everyone understood the tactic to deal with the Ancient Demon!

As long as they could keep the Ancient Demon occupied, Burly Bear’s sniper rifle could shatter its head.

Therefore, even if William and Chu Ziling couldn’t harm the Ancient Demon, they still charged fearlessly.

”You trash!! Die!”

The Ancient Demon, enraged, roared and unleashed its third skill!

Demon Qi Eruption (A-Class, Active Ability): Chaotic Demonic Qi erupts from the host’s body, unleashing enormous power that shreds everything nearby!

Black waves of Demonic Qi erupted from the Ancient Demon’s body. William, who was directly opposite it, was hit squarely by the shockwave.

William’s body was blasted away like a flimsy straw, flying ten meters into the air before crashing to the ground, motionless. His fate was unknown!

Chu Ziling, however, was exceptionally quick-witted. The moment he saw the Ancient Demon about to erupt, he immediately turned and ran as fast as he could.

Unfortunately, no matter how fast he ran, it was not faster than the Ancient Demon’s skill!

Chu Ziling almost escaped the radius of the Demon Qi Eruption, but the edge of the blast wave still caught his waist.

A crackling sound echoed from the area hit, then Chu Ziling’s body twisted bizarrely.

Even though he was not ripped in half directly, Chu Ziling’s spine was completely shattered by the Demonic Qi; he fell to the ground, howling in agony.

BANG!

Once again, Burly Bear’s gunfire resounded.

The effect of this shot was incredibly apparent.

With the sound of shattering bone, the Ancient Demon’s skull instantly fractured, and copious amounts of blood gushed from the bullet hole in its forehead!

”ROAR!!!”

This time, the Ancient Demon wasted no more words. The murderous intent in its eyes flared wildly as it stared fiercely in Burly Bear’s direction.

But a figure was already standing between the Ancient Demon and Burly Bear.

Then, the Touch of Greed shot towards the Ancient Demon’s head and swiftly grabbed for it!
