Chapter 528: Chapter 252: Demon-Slaying Puppet, Seventh Layer Battle Body_3
When Mathilda Ward eagerly approached and joined Gwen Gail in hugging and caressing the White Fox, Jack Clark’s eyes also revealed a touch of surprise.
Because this fox creature was strong.
In his perception, this fox creature that concealed its aura should be at about Level 6 Peak, but there was a faintly discernible and terrifying strength within it.
That strength was so formidable that Jack felt it would take two halberd strikes to blast through it.
This fox creature must possess a King-level bloodline, and it was very likely a descendant of the Mythical Giant Beast, the Eight-Tailed Heavenly Fox, with strong bloodline evolution and regression.
But as formidable as it was, why did it make a whimpering sound? You’re not a Mutated Tiger Whale.
While Jack was sizing it up, the Six-Tailed White Fox also glanced at him with its faintly charming eyes, a hint of wariness and astonishment flashing within.
Because it felt a faint bloodline suppression emanating from this human.
But how could that be, isn’t he a human?
As they interacted, the backup-dancing beauties around the stage and some staff members in the distance curiously watched the Six-Tailed Fox Creature.
For these ordinary people, opportunities to come into close contact with powerful mutated creatures were rare.
“Such a beautiful fox.”
“Your fox is bigger than a Water Buffalo; it’s a Unique Beast, very ferocious—one bite could swallow a person whole.”
In the distance at the edge of the stage, the assistant helping the sound engineer adjust the equipment also lit up with excitement: “That fox is so pretty, I really want to touch it.”
The bald middle-aged team sound engineer scoffed, “Forget it, Miss Jodie, that’s a pure high-level mutant beast. If you try to touch it without its approval, be careful; it might bite you.”
Hiss!
Imagining herself being bitten by that large mouth, the pretty assistant involuntarily gasped, and her adorable expression made the nearby staff burst into laughter.
…
It’s still the deep underground of that island.
Now, the blood and Mutated Creature corpses have disappeared from the Blood Pool at the center of the cave, revealing a pitch-black hollow of unknown depth.
Surrounding the hollow, the sacrificial runes etched on the mountain wall and ground that resembled dancing demons with bared fangs still flickered with a faint red glow, emitting a strong evil aura.
As for the Blood God Sect cultists, they had turned to ash after sacrificing their flesh and souls.
At the edge of the hollow, the long-haired youth with red ripples on his forehead looked ahead, his gaze profound as if observing a distant place.
Not far behind the youth, a diamond-shaped Black Crystal floated, rotating slowly and continuously emitting black light spots reminiscent of runes, which were gathering more and more.
Suddenly, those black light spots unfolded, forming a Rune Array with a diameter of about 1 meter in midair.
Hum! Centered on the Black Crystal, the Rune Array vibrated, and in an instant, it collapsed like a Black Hole, forming a dark area several meters in diameter around it.
The diamond-shaped Black Crystal glittered in the center of the darkness, unleashing bursts of dark energy that pierced through space, as if a coordinate had disappeared into the depths of the Void.
Because the Rune Array covered it, all the energy fluctuations emitted by the Black Crystal were absorbed and devoured, causing no impact on the surroundings.
In such a situation, it would naturally go undetected by the energy detection satellites in the sky.
As the Black Crystal continuously sent out energy signals, half an hour later, suddenly the light from the crystal surged, illuminating an indistinct image in the depths of the darkness.
In the image, ancient palaces stood erect amidst swirling black mist, and a towering figure sat high on the throne, its gaze piercing through infinite spacetime towards the long-haired youth.
A deep, resonant voice, full of an indescribable oppressive feeling, came from the other side: “Akunus, you have activated the Boundary Breaking Nether Crystal after all.”
The long-haired youth said indifferently, “The defense within Blue Star is even tighter than we estimated. With the strength of my avatar at present, the hope of retrieving the dragon is low.”
“As for that fool Kautorus, he was too impatient to make a move after only a couple of probes and then got slain by a genius of the Sixth-level Heaven from the Federation.”
“Otherwise, at the critical moment, I could have thrown it out to distract. With that distraction, I’m confident I would have a 60% chance of retrieving the dragon.”
A deep and resonant voice came from the other side, wary, “Kautorus has already been slain by those people from the Federation in the Hundred Dragon Wasteland some time ago.”
“I am aware of this news too, I need your help, Grayson.”
“As long as I can retrieve the dragon, I can recover to full strength within a year. Then, the two of us working together would have a greater chance of success when we raid that place.”
On the other side, Giant God Sect’s Evil God Grayson fell slightly silent, then spoke deeply, “The Inner World of the human race is too dangerous, I can’t possibly slice off an avatar to come in.”
“However, I can send you a Demon-Slaying Puppet. I will extract the Law Power within the puppet and only retain the pure combat body and an activation magic crystal.”
“This way, it should be able to pass through the fragile plane temporarily formed by the Nether Crystal and fold space-time to transmit over.”
The long-haired youth revealed a smile on his face, “With this Demon-Slaying Puppet, I’m even more confident in the arrangements to come.”
“The Federation people want to lure me out by maintaining strength around that little girl at the Sixth Layer, fearing I’d be too wary to make a move.”
“And the person they prepare to tackle me is an Eight Layer cultivator—and to avoid triggering my Divine Soul Alert, that person usually stays a hundred kilometers away.”
“Now, with this puppet devoid of Law Power but retaining a combat body and still possessing early stage Eighth Layer strength…”
“Coupled with the Unavoidable Demon Blade that can slice even through Ninth Heaven Cultivator domains, it should be enough to hold off the pressure from that Eight Layer Heaven for a while before the magic crystal energy runs out.”
“And that time should be enough for me to retrieve the dragon.”
As for why not use the Demon-Slaying Puppet to suppress everything, naturally, the aura of the puppet could not escape Darren Callum’s senses, likely startling them away.
“It’s good that you are confident.” Accompanied by the deep voice, in an instant, terrifying power burst forth from the imposing figure, vibrating Heaven and Earth.
Hum! The crystal at the center of the dark hollow vibrated, and within it, a ‘world’ faintly emerged, giving off intense Spatial Fluctuations.
At that moment, the diamond-shaped crystal exploded, the ‘world’ expanded forming a silent and void transparent space that connected two Boundarys.
“Now is the time.” Boom! A black ‘corpse,’ 3 meters tall with arms like blades was thrown by the imposing figure into the silent world.
In an instant, intense Spatial Fluctuations erupted, setting off waves of strong tremors that endlessly quaked, but were absorbed and devoured by the black rune array.
Under the powerful force of the opposing Evil God, the transparent space laid out in the Void began to slowly rotate. With each bit of rotation, there emerged the sound of crackle crackle, as if it was at its breaking point.
Just when the space was full of cracks and about to collapse, it finally reversed on one side.
Boom! With the fall of the black puppet, the silent space already full of cracks also collapsed with a loud noise, immediately followed by the collapse of the void pathway.
However, this time it wasn’t creating a passage that pierces through two Boundarys, but only a projection, so the impact of the collapse was really weak, turning into a typhoon of 10+ category that swept through the cave.
Looking down at the black Demon-Slaying Puppet lying quietly on the ground, Akinus’s eyes revealed a trace of pain.
Because the Nether Crystal that had just shattered was very precious, over ten times more valuable than the puppet, which after the infusion of a Law Power, had the combat power comparable to Ninth Heaven.
It would not have bothered bringing in this boundary-crossing Nether Crystal if it weren’t for the dragon.
Such a Divine Object containing a part of the ‘Netherworld,’ capable of forming a complete small plane temporarily, piercing through two Boundarys—even it only had one of them.
It was meant for the exploration of that dangerous place.
But as long as it could retrieve the dragon, it was all worthwhile. At that time, I will make you all pay the price.
Thinking this, the young man’s gaze grew very cold and ruthless.
