Chapter 1106 Mythical
It was a similar gray-skinned scorpion creature that attacked Ery and Zach in droves, but had a humanoid upper part with a disfigured face and two large, pincer-like hands that looked ominous.
It was at least three tis bigger than its Legendary counterparts, the length of its body reaching up to thirty ters. Its huge feet raised a huge cloud of dust as it moved. It was a gigantic beast.
[Scorpius Titan]
[Mythical Beast - Level 35]
[Battle Power - Undefined]
This Mythical Beast possessing power comparable to the Bone Dragon Ery had to fight during the Magus Academy's Ga. At that ti, it took the cooperation of two dozen powerful acolytes to barely kill the Dragon, and unlike before, what standing in front of him was not re simulation.
Ery was not the sa person as he was nine months ago, and he certainly stood with one of the strongest acolytes of his generation. However, the enemy they needed to face was not the Mythical creature alone. There were still five other high-level Legendary creatures which were currently surrounding them at the mont.
Knowing it was nigh ti for them to retreat, Ery roared as loudly as he could. "Zach! Ti to retreat!!"
Alas, the proud Dragon protege didn't budge from where he was standing. He just smiled at the incoming creature as he said, "You don't need my permission to run."
Zach kept his ground against the group of Shrikes and continued to swing his sword relentlessly despite Ery's urge. He received another round of wounds to his body but managed to break through another Shrike's defense and kill it.
Realizing that the Dragon was being stubborn, Ery thought for a mont before clenching his fists and charging forward.
In monts like this, the best way for Ery to help was to hold down the Mystical creature as long as possible, giving the much-needed ti to the Dragon protege to finish off its Legendary counterparts.
Making up his decision, Ery dashed past Zach who was still embroiled with the four remaining Shrikes. He stopped ters from the approaching Scorpius Titan and began to cast spells in succession.
[Jade Root] [Jade Wall]
Dozens of green roots burst out and slithered across the giant creature's body, trying to hold its body in its current location. On the other hand, all of its legs were quickly trapped within a green do that rose from the ground beneath.
Imdiately after, Ery cast [Jade Warrior] and summoned a pack of thirty-two Jade Wolves. These wolves charged forward and surrounded the Mythical creature before attacking in unison.
The wolves were unable to leave even a dent on the creature's body, but with the Hexagram formation, they launched multiple layers of coordinated attacks that were enough to stall and keep it busy.
They did what Ery planned to accomplish – buying ti, and the only thing he had to do now was to maintain the status quo by summoning the wolves' replacent when they were destroyed, which occurred every few seconds.
Coupled with [Void Mist] and [Shadow Edge] he threw from the distance, Ery was able to successfully distract the Scorpius Titan. This action of his bought the Dragon protege quite so ti until the creature suddenly let out a deafening shriek.
SHRIIIEEKKK!!!
As the shriek echoed through the air, Ery instantly felt the formless pressure bearing down on his entire body doubled in intensity. A web of cracks appeared on the ground his feet were standing on, while all his clones and wolf summons were crushed by the sudden increase in pressure.
Nurous gray stones, both big and small, that were in the vicinity of half a mile rose into the air as they were affected by the creature's ability. It suddenly beca clear to Ery that the creature and this place has one thing in common – the ability to affect the planet's gravity.
'Gravity spell!'
Shrrieekkk!!!
Ery saw the Scorpius Titan shrieked once more and turned its head towards him. It was apparent that the Mythical creature had finally set its target, and the next mont the hundreds of stones floating in the sky shot in his direction.
Bam!! Bam!! Bam!! Bam!!
Loud dull sounds were heard in rapid succession as Ery swung his swords in quick motions, dealing with the stones that would hit him if left unattended. However, while he was busy doing so, his vision suddenly darkened as he found the giant creature already arriving next to him.
Before he could do anything, the Scorpius Titan's pincers shot forth and grabbed his body in deadly lockdown. In an instant, Ery felt such a powerful force on his body that threatened to cut him in half.
Realizing that he was in grave danger, Ery imdiately cast his strongest protective spell [Aegis of Void]. However, he couldn't afford to breathe yet as he could see the creature's terrifying tail heading toward him.
He saw the nacing tip of the tail approaching by second. Alas, there was nothing he could do but hope his defensive spell would be enough to stop the attack.
Splatt!!
Arrghhh!!
Blood splattered in the air as the tail pierced Ery's body. It was so powerful that it tore through the barrier of space the latter created.
A gaping hole was seen on Ery as the tail proceeded to smash him hard, inflicting even more wounds. His body was sent flying through the air dozens of ters before eventually crashing to the ground with a loud thud.
The Mythical creature shrieked loudly once more as it was raring to finish its prey.
With his body drenched with his own blood, Ery tried to get away from the creature. Unfortunately, the formless pressure currently pressing on his body greatly affected his speed.
As if that wasn't bad enough, his ability to manipulate space was also disrupted by the creature's gravity ability, causing him unable to cast [Blink] to escape.
Knowing full well he couldn't flee fast enough with his current state, Ery gritted his teeth and let go of all his inhibitions as he prepared his most powerful attack. The dual core within his body rotated rapidly as spirit energy flowed under Ery's command.
His right hand emitted an ominous dark color as dark spirit energy converged there, while his left arm emitted a refreshing green brilliance as nature spirit energy congregated in abundant amounts.
Seeing the gigantic figure rushing towards him with bloodlust, he unhesitatingly fused the two spirit energies together and released them.
[Dao Matter]
BOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!
The earth rumbled violently as the rotating two-colored ball slamd into the Mythical creature. A massive explosion ensued, causing a blast of dust and debris that swept over Ery and sent him tumbling backwards.
He was flung to the air and fell to the ground once more, spitting a mouthful of blood. An excruciating pain ran through his body, but Ery could feel the pain lessen when he saw that the creature had not been left unhard by the attack.
Cracks were visible all over its body, while a large hole dripping pitch black liquid could be seen where the Dao Matter had landed. Experiencing excruciating pain, the Scorpius Titan shrieked in pain as it struggled to move its body.
It was at this exact mont that out of the corner of his eye he caught the figure of Zach charging towards the defenseless creature.
The Dragon protege's body and sword were shrouded in brilliant light as he unleashed a series of attacks upon the Mythical creature.
Bamm! Bamm! Bam!!
Ery's eyes widened before quickly focusing as he saw Zach use a technique that he hadn't seen him use before.
Akin to an unstoppable force of nature, Zach bombarded the Scorpius Titan with attacks in a crazed manner, forcing the Mythical creature to stay on the ground. What Ery was currently seeing was probably one of the strongest blade attacks he had ever seen from his peers.
There must be at least fifty powerful strikes the Dragon protege did, which were done in continuous manner without a pause. The attack cracked open the shell of the Mythical creature, causing it to squirm in pain as its body bled profusely.
However, the Dragon protege still didn't stop his assault. Instead, he headed to the creature's upper body next.
One .. two.. Three strikes all straight to its head.
If this continued, Zach might be able to crack apart the creature's head and finally kill it. However, to Ery's shock, the Dragon protege suddenly shouted in pain. A stabbing sensation appeared in his hand that was holding the sword, causing the weapon to be flung away.
"Arrghhh!"
Zach fell to his knees right in front of the Mythical creature as he wailed in pain, unable to get up.
"just a few more!!"
Shrrieekkk!!
In this decisive mont, not caring about his critical condition, Ery stood up and ran towards the two. Brandishing his pair of [Blade Claw], he charged straight towards the creature's cracked head.
The Mythical creature went into a frenzy when Ery's claws stabbed deep within its head. Its rampage hit both Zach and Ery, but the latter gritted through the pain and kept his claws embedded in the creature, unwilling to let go.
[Spirit Devour]
The struggle and hysteria of the Scorpius Titan intensified when it felt its life slipping away. Alas, there was nothing it could do as Ery held onto its body with his dear life.
It took more than a minute before the Mythical creature stopped struggling and fell helplessly to the ground.
Limping, the Dragon protege slowly approached the creature before dealing the final blow by smashing its head. With that, the Mythical creature Scorpius Titan was killed by the two acolytes.
Ery and Zach finally managed to kill the Mythical creature. However, their peril hadn't ended yet as at the sa ti more Shrikes erged from the ground. Seeing the Legendary beasts that ca in droves, Ery looked at the Dragon protege and said.
"I am leaving now… Feel free to stay if you want."
