Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 339: Chapter 128: The Demon Spawn that’s Nearly Impossible to Solve! (Extra rewards for the impure wings!)_1

Seeing Star and Wen Yu relentlessly launching ineffective attacks, a mocking smile filled the eyes of the Ancient Demon spawn!

It had no idea what kind of monster it was facing!

Dimensional Asylum (SS-Class, Active Ability): Consumes a massive amount of stamina in a single burst to create a dimensional space visible only to the host. This dimensional space affects only the host. While the host is inside the Dimensional Asylum, outsiders can only see the host’s body but cannot launch any form of attack against them. Note: Detection abilities above SS-Class (but not including SS-Class) (of the same level as the host) can detect the entrance to the Dimensional Asylum. Space-based attack abilities above SS-Class (but not including SS-Class) (of the same level as the host) can attack the host within the Dimensional Asylum. Esoteric Level attack skills (of the same level as the host) can completely destroy the Dimensional Asylum. A maximum of three Dimensional Asylums can be created. Duration: One Earth day.

Having this ability meant that Wen Yu and Star’s attacks were completely ineffective! Moreover, the demon spawn wouldn’t expend any stamina!

This was an extremely powerful survival ability!

The convoy led by Kuangliu moved further and further away, while Wen Yu gradually stopped his actions.

Wen Yu also realized he had been attacking for so long, all in vain!

Star also stopped spewing Dragon Flame and slowly returned to Wen Yu’s position.

Cyclops’s body also grew larger, quickly entering its battle form.

”What? Giving up?” the Ancient Demon spawn spoke clear Chinese, its tone magnetic, enunciating each word with perfect clarity.

Wen Yu shook his head slightly. ”If I can’t hit you, then I won’t.”

”A wise choice! Then, is it my turn?”

The Ancient Demon spawn, after speaking, playfully made a gesture towards Wen Yu. It appeared to be some sort of formal greeting from the Demon Realm.

And then... the Ancient Demon spawn simply vanished.

Instantaneous Movement (S-Class, Active Ability): Shift one’s spatial position to appear elsewhere, consuming stamina depending on the distance!

A familiar ability, and one Wen Yu coveted. Unfortunately, this ability always seemed to belong to his opponents.

And this Ancient Demon spawn’s mastery of Instantaneous Movement far surpassed that of the black-robed man Wen Yu had encountered previously.

Seeing the Ancient Demon spawn disappear on the spot, Wen Yu reacted instantly, rapidly transmitting a Spiritual Fluctuation.

”Spread out immediately! Star, full power!”

Star’s Dragon’s Aura Field was a double-edged sword, harming both friend and foe. Normally, Wen Yu was reluctant to let Star use its full power near him—the sudden drop in his own physical attributes, which in turn weakened all his skills, was a deeply unpleasant sensation. But this was clearly not a ”normal situation”!

Unfortunately, it was still too late...

The instant Wen Yu’s Spiritual Fluctuation was transmitted, the Ancient Demon spawn appeared directly above Star!

Seeing the Ancient Demon spawn suddenly appear, Star reacted immediately, bypassing thought altogether. It activated both its Dragon’s Aura Field and Dragon Blood Amplification skills. Then, the scales all over its body seemed to explode outwards, furiously sweeping towards the space around the Ancient Demon spawn!

However... the S-Class Shell Breaking Storm inflicted no damage whatsoever on the Ancient Demon spawn.

Space Solidification (SSS-Class, Active Ability): Creates a completely solidified space within a certain range around the body! Any object within this space, other than the host, will be in an absolutely solidified state! After this skill is activated, it consumes a large amount of stamina every second!

Note: Absolute power can break this state!

As an indescribable power permeated the surrounding space, the Dragon Scales hurtling towards the Ancient Demon spawn froze mid-air. Even a part of Star’s body became completely immobile under the effect of Space Solidification!

Star’s physical attributes were at early Stage Level 5... a significant gap compared to the peak Level 5 Ancient Demon spawn.

Even with the boost from Dragon’s Aura Field and Dragon Blood Amplification, Star’s current physical attributes were insufficient to overcome the absolute power required to break Space Solidification.

Perhaps if Star reached peak Level 5, it might have been able to break through this restrictive power, but not now. It simply couldn’t!

Then, the Ancient Demon spawn raised its claw towards Star...

Dimension Reduction Attack (SSS-Class, Active Ability): Attaches a strange spatial power to the attacking part, performing a ”Dimension Reduction Attack” on the struck area (transforming it from three-dimensional to two-dimensional, from a solid three-dimensional form to a flat, paper-like two-dimensional shape)! The Dimension Reduction Attack cannot break through Esoteric Level defense skills, but it can completely ignore all defense capabilities below Esoteric Level!

The claw, emitting a strange glow, slapped Star directly on the head!

Then, half of Star’s head instantly deflated, becoming flat like a painting, its eyes, nose, and other features still clearly visible on the surface. Combined with the remaining intact half of its skull, Star’s entire head presented a horrifyingly eerie and grotesque sight!

”ROAR!!!”

A frantic roar burst from Star’s mouth. Ferocious Dragon Flame sprayed everywhere, only to be frozen solid around the Ancient Demon spawn’s body.

Attack... ineffective!

Defense... impossible!

The confrontation between the Ancient Demon spawn and Star was an incredibly one-sided display of skills.

This was a suppression born from a vast difference in physical attributes and skill synergy.

If Star had reached peak Level 5, it could have definitely contended with this Ancient Demon spawn. But as it was, Star was being utterly crushed.

As Wen Yu’s ostensibly strongest combatant, Star’s combat instincts and reaction speed were far beyond Wen Yu’s own capabilities.

Moreover, everything happened too quickly! Far too quickly!

It happened so quickly that Wen Yu had barely begun to move out of the range of Star’s Dragon’s Aura Field when he heard Star’s agonizing cry from behind him.

At the same time, a Spiritual Fluctuation rapidly transmitted into Wen Yu’s mind.

”Boss! Save me! Quick...”

Wen Yu immediately turned, his eyes instantly locking onto the massive, bizarre wound on Star’s head.

The glow on the Ancient Demon spawn’s claw flared once more, then it slashed down swiftly.

Unfortunately for it, this Dimension Reduction Attack hit nothing but air.

Star had already been recalled by Wen Yu into the Soul Realm space!

Divine beasts possessed immense power and terrifyingly tenacious life force. Thus, even with such a grievous head wound, Star hadn’t died instantly and was successfully recalled by Wen Yu.

Seeing the unknown power at Star’s wound being rapidly purged by the effects of the Soul Realm space, Wen Yu heaved a heavy sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, just in time!
