Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

”You’re doing it this way...”

In just a moment, Wen Yu already had the plan arranged and deployed. Faceless listened, nodded heavily, and then once more split into eight. Eight Faceless surged towards the Black River Sovereign.

As for Wen Yu, he still stood behind Faceless, quickly rummaged through the space ring, and then took out an item from within.

It was a bizarrely shaped handgun...

The gun was entirely red, covered with intricate and strange patterns, which seemed like runes, yet also like irregular lines.

Wen Yu’s Soul Abiogenetic Creation Skill, in cooperation with Yanjing Institute, led to the creation of this specially designed Esoteric Level item for the current capture operation.

The gun’s name: Vicious Venom!

...

The communication between master and servant appeared lengthy, but in reality, it took just a moment.

When the Black River Sovereign asked, ”Is this a carbon copy,” and received Wen Yu’s confirmation, the battle erupted once more!

This time, the Black River Sovereign made the first move—unable to escape the Heaven’s Sealing massive array formation, he had murderous intent. Although before him were only one of Wen Yu’s soul pets and one of his carbon copies, the Black River Sovereign—or rather, the Demon Spirit—had a unique understanding of such skills that perfectly inherit one’s strength.

If such a carbon copy were to fall, it would inevitably have a great impact on the main body!

With the giant’s stride, the roar resounded, and Faceless and Wen Yu only felt the earth shake as if a mountain were pressing down directly on them.

Faceless divided into eight, facing the enemy head-on. The two met face-to-face less than a hundred kilometers from Wen Yu. Then, the tragic scene just played out once more!

Faceless’s carbon copy that charged at the Black River Sovereign was slapped into the dirt by the Black River Sovereign. He then raised his foot, his large foot accompanied by terrifying power enough to tear through space stamped down, and as the two came into contact, this Faceless carbon copy couldn’t react in time and was instantly smashed into flesh. The Blood and Flesh Badge directly invalidated, Ultra Mortal Combat was instantly knocked into its third state, and immediately triggered the Ancient Dragon’s Wrath!

The Photosynthetic Spirit Motifs instantly activated, and Faceless’s shattered body began to heal gradually. However, evidence showed that the Black River Sovereign still held back just moments ago.

Photosynthetic Spirit Motifs, in essence, do not belong to instant recovery ability. They rely on the powerful healing effects of light-based energy to produce the effect of flesh and bones regeneration, yet healing injuries still requires time.

Even if the time is short, too short for an opponent with physical condition equal to Wen Yu to react...

But the Black River Sovereign indeed reacted, not only reacting but also immediately taking targeted measures!

As the large foot pressed down, the rotting earth beneath the Black River Sovereign instantly shattered, and a green spike shot up, pierced the flesh on the ground, then shattered into a pool of green venom, with the flesh soaking in the spring, immediately emitting green smoke.

However, in the following second, the eighth skill applied to Cyclops immediately took effect.

Death Resistance (Species-specific Esoteric Level, Passive Skill): Born for battle, and to die in battle. After acquiring this skill, the host will develop a strong resistance to death, in the face of impending death, the power deeply hidden within the body will be fully activated, instantly restoring all the host’s state to its peak!

After exiting combat, the host’s physical fitness limit increases by level*10,000 points.

Note: This skill’s cooldown time is seven days.

Seven-day CD, traded for a chance to replace death—not a rebirth-type skill, yet akin to one.

In the blink of an eye, this Faceless carbon copy reappeared intact at the original spot, and then he saw a giant foot getting closer...

If nothing goes wrong, the effect brought by Death Resistance would merely repeat the scene just now.

”Bang...”

At this time, the gunshot rang out...

...

Bright gunfire splashed out from Vicious Venom, and a needle-like bullet shot towards the Black River Sovereign at the speed of light.

The two were already very close, and the Vicious Venom bullet gave the Black River Sovereign no time to react. When the bullet directly hit the towering body of the Black River Sovereign, he still maintained the motion of lifting his foot down.

”Boom!”

The large foot swiftly hit the ground, but there was no one left on the ground...

Another Faceless carbon copy, after the scene just now occurred, had already reacted, activated the Netherworld, and pulled the battered Faceless back. Subsequently, eight Faceless simultaneously attacked with flames, darkness, or Chaos, various energies of all colors splattered on the Black River Sovereign like fireworks.

However, when the energy residues dissipated, the Black River Sovereign remained unscathed; he merely stood still, staring straight at the gun-wielding Wen Yu in the distance.

”This is...”

”The gun named Vicious Venom seems like you’ll need to teach it a lesson again.”

Wen Yu said so, then pulled the trigger once more.

With a ”bang” sound.

The needle-shaped bullet was discharged once again, this time, the Black River Sovereign seemed to encounter something troublesome, he laboriously turned his head and twisted his body, but still got hit directly by Vicious Venom.

”Second shot.”

Wen Yu said as such.

...

Vicious Venom (Species-specific Esoteric Level, Weapon-type item, non-Soul-Armored): Primarily based on the Technological System, supplemented by the Demon Energy System, and Rune System, further modified with Soul Abiogenetic Creation to create a potent limit-type item.

Shooting Frequency: 0.1S. Assisted by perception lock shooting, within the perception range, every shot is bound to hit, each hit by Vicious Venom, the bullet will drill into the target’s body, affecting the target’s physical fitness in all aspects, each bullet weakens the physical fitness one ten-thousandth, and brings immense pain perception, which can be stacked.

Effect after the hundredth hit: forcefully seals one skill of the target.

Effect after the three hundredth hit: forcefully seals three skills of the target.

Effect after the thousandth hit: forcefully seals all skills of the target.

Effect after the three thousandth hit: target falls into multiple negative states such as mania, stupefaction, and lost.

Effect after the ten thousandth hit: forced seal!

Note: Vicious Venom bullets are pure energy in nature, activated immediately upon hitting, but the energy is inherently restrained by Origin Energy. Once washed by Origin Energy, the bullet will become completely ineffective, and all abnormal states will disappear entirely.

Not a powerful item, under normal circumstances, it’s just a scrap, but as they say, garbage is just treasure placed in the wrong spot.

After Wen Yu’s modification, Vicious Venom’s special effect determination is quite high... even high enough that Wen Yu’s physical fitness couldn’t resist!

The normal lethality is completely absent, but the special effect is quite potent. For Level 11 powerful experts, due to the presence of Origin Energy, many items, and skills become completely ineffective, and Vicious Venom naturally falls into this category.

In response, Wen Yu considered carefully and thought of a method.

Use Heaven’s Sealing massive array formation to seal the Level 11 powerful expert’s Origin Energy and transcendent authority, then use Vicious Venom to ”biubiubiu”...

This was what Wen Yu could think of, as the only method at this stage to catch the Demon Spirit’s carbon copy.
