A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 1212: Chapter 1213: Turbid Lizard Predator (Part 1)

The center of the cold eyes was a slit pupil, exuding the icy cold unique to cold-blooded animals.

Suddenly appearing in the distance, an unabashed oppressive force made Turbid Lizard, one of the twelve predators near the Piercing Gate, abruptly open its long-dormant eyes, breaking the silence that had lasted for decades.

”Hiss hiss hiss!”

A red core stretched out from its mouth, as if Turbid Lizard sniffed the danger in the air, the four pairs of wings protecting its body during its slumber gradually unfolded, revealing the coiled python’s body inside, densely packed scales resembling crystalline stones, giving it a semi-transparent physique, slowly stretching out its massive body curled into a ball.

Gazing into the mid-air ahead, at the seven tiny figures that disturbed its rest, Turbid Lizard knew it was facing yet another challenger aspiring to become a predator.

Yet unlike those challengers who had ended up in its belly before, these seven bizarre beings, whose auras were intertwined, possessed power far beyond what those challengers before could ever reach.

”Dare to disturb my slumber, you insignificant beings, have you come to challenge my throne as well?”

Despite having seven figures before it, Turbid Lizard, lifting its armored head and overlooking from above with its enormous body, focused its slit pupil gaze on the mysterious figure in the center, twisting the light and dark in all directions.

At this moment, as its body stretched completely from the coiled ball shape, its crystal snake tail casually landed on the ground with a ”boom” sound, a groove spreading, showcasing the explosive power contained within its body.

Being an entity that has stumbled from the beginning to now reach the pinnacle of its own evolution, Turbid Lizard’s long slumber in the Dimensional Esophagus granted it an immensely long life and profound foundations, confident in having become one of the truly top-tier powerhouses within the vast endlessness of the Dimensional Esophagus.

”Heh heh heh heh, I’m quite interested in the Piercing Gate here, but I’ve heard that only by becoming a predator here can one gain the right to plunder the Shard of the World’s Heart from the Piercing Gate, so... kindly step aside or be killed by me, and have your corpse turned into an experimental specimen to deter those who dare to challenge me later.”

The six Annihilation Source Avatars showed various expressions, from arrogant smiles to indifferent gazes, as they slowly converged towards Turbid Lizard following Green’s steps.

”Hiss, little ones, it’s time for you to experience the terror of a Piercing Gate predator!”

Turbid Lizard had shifted from initial heaviness to a determined life-or-death stance, accompanied by an angry roar, ”buzz,” its tail suddenly transformed into a trailing shadow, as if slicing through space. Except for Green wearing the Truth Mask, none of the other six Annihilation Source Avatars reacted in time.

”Damn...”

With a ”boom,” one Annihilation Source Avatar, like a cannonball, was swept away by the snake tail, flying an unknown distance and disappearing across the sky.

In Green’s perception, the Annihilation Source Avatar was unharmed, and in a cold sneer, the tip of the extreme abyss magic staff gathered a flower of annihilation flame, crackling with disconcerting high-frequency vibrations, a black arc twisting light and dark in all directions flashing briefly.

The overwhelming turbid liquid, the source force of Turbid Lizard, possessed the ability to corrode thoughts, particularly terrifying for passive evolution creatures, but for a Stigma Sorcerer who has transcended the Heart Tribulation, it posed little threat.

The Three-Colored Light Eyes rapidly analyzed the properties of the black-gray liquid, after the arc of annihilation easily pierced through the wall of turbid liquid, with a ”puff,” under Green’s exquisite control, it struck directly at the heart of Turbid Lizard’s crystal scales.

”To think you possess such strong defense, it didn’t pierce through!”

Not mentioning Green’s astonishment that the arc of annihilation could only cause superficial damage to Turbid Lizard, on the other hand, Turbid Lizard was shockingly surprised that its proud crystal scales were swiftly shattered under this arc attack, damaging the inner part of its body structure.

”You...”

Meanwhile, Green cautiously avoided the pollution of the turbid liquid before determining the properties of the black-grey liquid.

Bang!

Suddenly, a human-like small form of an Annihilation Source Avatar, punched Turbid Lizard’s head, the terrifying attack of 850,000 degrees instantly caused a layer of ear-piercing sound waves to ripple around, even fracturing the bones on the ground, terrifying some weaker creatures secretly watching from afar!

Bang!

A shadow flashed, another Annihilation Source Avatar emitted a low roar, his expression indifferent as he punched Turbid Lizard’s abdomen, the tip of his fist exploding with a force that twisted space.

As expected of Turbid Lizard’s proud crystal scales, despite the horrifying attack from an Annihilation Source Avatar’s punch, the impact transmitted as a vibration, unable to destroy the scales.

”Hmm?”

Green discovered with surprise that the battle did not proceed as he imagined, with six Annihilation Source Avatars overwhelming Turbid Lizard, leaving it helpless, leading him to deliver a fatal blow.

Among them, three Annihilation Source Avatars tainted by the grey-black liquid displayed agonizing headaches, pain-filled expressions, their bodies destabilizing into magic power and returning.

”Oh, to think you can affect cognition, this energy does indeed have quite considerable research value. Heh heh heh heh, I’m now even more looking forward to your biological specimen.”

Green laughed gloomily, with a flash of his hand, suddenly an item appeared, an amber ring!

Although Green’s main body and avatars seem merely twenty thousand degrees apart in elemental amplification, their combat capability is naturally drastically different, thanks to the sorcery instrument and elemental force bringing diverse combat amplification.

At this moment, with a ”whoosh,” the Annihilation Source Avatar that was swept away by Turbid Lizard returned to Green’s side, slightly damaged but affecting its combat ability.

”This is all your fault, insisting on conducting the ancestral bloodline refining experiment at this time, causing us not being able to manifest our true body, being treated by this creature as small fries.”

As the Annihilation Source Avatar complained to Green, he looked at the distressed three Annihilation Source Avatars tainted by turbid liquid.

”What’s happening to them?”

”Humph, you should be grateful for not activating the true body, or you would have ended up like them. Be careful of its toxic liquid, don’t get contaminated.”

While speaking, Green scattered the three Annihilation Source Avatars into magic power and absorbed them back into himself.

As the purest product of passive evolution, the Annihilation Source Avatars only have Green’s basic emotional cognition, simulating passive evolution, hence maximizing the effects of turbid liquid - contamination means certain death.

Unexpectedly encountering a peculiar ability here that severely restrained Green’s Annihilation Source Avatars.

Things that seem hard and strong often have their fragile aspects!

After speaking, beneath Green’s Truth Mask, the three-colored light eyes flashed, locking onto the dynamic trajectory of Turbid Lizard, disappearing with an Elemental Teleport.

”Wait for me!”

With a ”boom,” this Annihilation Source Avatar cracked the ground beneath its feet, leaving a hundred-meter footprint, its body flashed, springing towards the battle group where Turbid Lizard was being suppressed by the other two Annihilation Source Avatars.
