"Quickly, kill him!"
The 2D Girl realized the danger. When Shi Ming took out that lamp, her indifferent face finally showed a change in expression. She felt an intense sense of crisis, prompting her to unleash her final trump card without reservation!
The fifth form of the Person in the Painting,
Painting Self!
Shadow attacked with even less reservation, light and dark rging and separating on his body as his entire form transford into a two-toned scythe.
But Tatasta was already thinking about how to escape! He crooked a finger, already beginning to channel his Breaking Sky Power.
The rules of the Law of Nations were set by their own hands and could not be broken midway!
A prison of their own making, trapping them as much as their foe!
Shi Ming watched the three of them struggle desperately.
’Trump cards? You’re only using them now?’
’Weren’t you all holding back your strength before?’
’Too late!’
In today’s battle, he had intended to take a few of them down from the very beginning. Since his rebirth, he had been passively dragged into one conflict after another—from the Demon Sword incident and the case of the exorbitant bounty, to the interception by the Thunder God and the covetous eyes of the Pharaoh, and now this three-on-one fight. He had always reacted passively, never taking the initiative, which seed to give people the impression that he was easy to bully.
If not for his ample trump cards, he would have long since been devoured without a trace.
It was ti to return the favor—with a vengeance!
Especially the Black Society and the Lighthouse! They were relentlessly annoying!
The Abyss Lord’s blood could only be used once. It was incomparably precious.
’But thinking about it carefully, it’s the only choice at the mont.’
The skill released by the Star Lamp would be as if the sea beast released it personally. The Naless Cocoon was in a strange state, and its skill was unknown. Although the skill ranked third on the S-rank skill list, Shi Ming’s uses of his Eye of Intelligence were limited, so he wasn’t sure what its skill actually was. ’Is it support or attack? Does it have any killing power?’
If burning its blood failed to completely defeat these three Awakened, or if the effect was poor, then afterward, his Ten Thousand Tribulations Thunder Body would be suppressed by the Law, and he would only have the Black Tortoise Shield and Arm of Power to deal with the ensuing trouble. The margin for error was too low.
’If I’m going to flip the table,’
’I’m going to flip it hard!’
...
The Star Lamp flickered like a faint starfire.
The Abyss Lord’s blood acted as fuel within it, brewing a great terror from the abyss.
’Burn Star! Activate!’
WHOOSH!
The fla surged violently, and then it was as if a starry curtain and the night sky descended at once. In the darkness, the lamp in Shi Ming’s hand beca the only star. More and more stars lit up, connecting point by point in the gloom, outlining a huge ring of stars about three hundred ters in diater.
The air grew thick and corrupt.
Behind Shi Ming, the brilliant ring of stars solidified, transforming into a terrifying giant eye three hundred ters long.
The giant eye opened—
FWOOSH~
Thousands of evil tendrils spawned madly from the pupil. The three-hundred-ter silhouette instantly expanded to over a thousand ters long. Embedded upon the chaotic and complex tendrils were densely packed, miniature pupils that looked as if they were ford from the collapse of solidified nebulae.
Tens of thousands of evil tendrils thrashed about.
Tens of thousands of eyes stared, and a single unintentional glance could cause anyone who gazed upon it to fall into the abyss.
The Abyss Lord!
A Holy Hall-level being!
’Run!’
This was the one thought shared by everyone present, except for Shi Ming!
Fear sprouted from the depths of their hearts. A malice that transcended the human level brewed, swelled, and assimilated within them. Even Pandoria, in her girlish form and with nurous trump cards, felt that her true body, hidden in the 2D space of the distant Moon Shadow, was being torn apart and devoured.
Her half-activated "Person in the Painting" ability ca to an abrupt halt, and even the feather ornant on her head began to tremble.
Their minds scread to flee, but their bodies were completely immobilized under the oppressive pressure. Cold sweat beaded on their skin, their eyes twitched uncontrollably, and their pupils dilated massively.
Even though it was just a phantom conjured by the Star Lamp, it could drag people into madness and chaos before it had even activated a skill.
ROAR!
The phantom of the Abyss Lord unleashed its Holy Hall Level Skill.
Rank 006!
Its na: Extrely Evil Sanctuary!
From beneath the ocean, countless indescribable, evil tendrils tipped with terrifying barbs suddenly shot out.
Like the most powerful Earth Spike Array, they impaled the sea region from the seabed to the surface and from the surface to the sky, creating a dense forest of madly growing thorns. Writhing with barbs and tiny eyes, they wantonly pierced every living thing within a thousand ters—except for Shi Ming.
The Star Lamp granted him immunity.
Chaos and strangeness reigned.
Pandoria’s girlish body was torn into scraps of paper. This form, which was a "Person in the Painting" to begin with, completely disintegrated, losing all traces of life. Her true body, hidden in the 2D space of the distant Moon Shadow, could not escape either. The malice swelled like a plague, spiraling out of control and bringing a great disaster upon Moon Shadow.
Tatasta barely managed to steady his mind and desperately tore open the spatial rift he had long prepared, attempting to hide inside to escape the catastrophe.
Half of his body had already entered, but his right arm and leg, still outside, were pierced, chewed, ripped, and devoured by the evil tendrils. The pain was excruciatingly unbearable, and he tumbled directly into the void.
Shadow tried to turn into a beam of light to escape the area. Unfortunately, the rules of the Law of Nations that he himself had enacted were inviolable. Escape was impossible. His body was turned into a sieve, torn apart and devoured by the tendrils.
With its master gone, the Law of Nations fell into the ocean.
The sealed space shattered imdiately.
The Thunder Prison was forcefully suppressed by the Holy Hall Energy, and the sky above cleared completely.
The fuel of the Star Lamp was exhausted. Its light faded and then extinguished completely. The enormous, terrifying eye closed and slowly vanished. Light returned, and this patch of sea regained its forr tranquility, as if the last hour or two had never happened, just like any other region of the Endless Ocean.
And just like that, the three-on-one battle was over.
The Eye of the World sent a "congratulatory telegram."
[The tense and exciting arena match has finally co to an end! Let us congratulate the final victor, Shi Ming!]
[There have been enough "coincidences" today, but no matter. The Eye of the World is quite satisfied with this battle, so it has cordially sponsored today’s final "coincidence" as a friendly reminder to the victorious Fighter: The Abyss Lord, which had just quelled its anger and entered slumber, has once again realized its power has been stolen and blasphed by a human. Ten seconds ago, it cast a terrifying gaze in this direction.]
[In its fury, it has flung out a real evil tendril.]
[At its current speed, the tendril is projected to cross 1,500 nautical miles and arrive here in 83 minutes. So, what are you waiting for? Get out of here! Due to certain restrictions, its attack cannot leave the Africa Sea Area. Escape the Sea of Yellow Sand, and you will be able to evade this attack!]
’Cross the Sea of Yellow Sand in 83 minutes?’
’The Dayun, after its upgrade to General-class, should be able to make it at full speed.’
’But I’m afraid the Abyss Lord will mark . In the future, every trip to Africa will beco a grand adventure, a battle royale.’
’Right, there’s also a Dusk Whale in the European Sea Region hunting . The last ti I ca to Africa was because of its thousand-league pursuit. And now, history is repeating itself. What a coincidence!’
’The law of similarity, is it?’
SPLASH!
Leaping out of the water, Shi Ming snatched the Law of Nations that had sunk into the sea at top speed. He didn’t even have ti to fish out the Crystal Core from the shattered Silver Wandering Ship before he activated Sun-Shooting and retreated at full speed.
At the sa ti, he remotely controlled the Dayun, which had already left the battlefield under his command, to sail due north at maximum speed in sync with him.
Fighting three S-class Awakened was already his limit. If not for the Star Lamp, he wouldn’t have been so overconfident, and his fighting style would have been completely different. Moreover, the Abyss Lord was no ordinary creature; its attacks were fast, fierce, vicious, bizarre, and brutal. The first ti he encountered it in the Boiling Sea, Shi Ming had been caught completely off guard. A single tentacle had sent him flying over 200 nautical miles, like a cannonball, from the center of the Sea of Boiling to the swimming pool of the Golden Bodhi.
He had no second death-defying trick up his sleeve to withstand the Abyss Lord’s fury now.
A hasty retreat was the wisest course of action!
Fortunately, the Ten Thousand Tribulations Thunder Prison had also been forcibly terminated by the Extrely Evil Sanctuary. The 10,000 lightning bolts had ceased, so Shi Ming no longer had to worry about the aftershocks of the final ten minutes of his Thunder Tempering Body.
However, the Thunder Secret Patterns on his body and the great lightning in his eyes had not faded. His hair still shone with a silver light, standing on end, maintaining the state and power of the Descent of the Titan.
...
In the center of the Sea of Boiling, the Three-Eyed Golden Crow shivered in its deep-sea lair.
As a highly spiritual S-class sea beast, it keenly sensed that the mysterious being deep within the seabed—the one that had saved it from Shi Ming’s hands before—was enraged. Terrifying malice and fury were breeding madly. Spurred by this, the Three-Eyed Golden Crow’s third eye burst with inspiration, and its Great Prophecy Technique activated passively, allowing it to glimpse a small fragnt of the distant future.
Its eyes blinked in terror, completely unable to believe the contents of the fragnt it had seen.
But the Great Prophecy Technique had never been wrong. It could only shiver and pretend it had seen nothing.
The unmoving Heijin also detected the two massive energy fluctuations.
It quickly went on high alert, entering a warti state it hadn’t been in for three years.
It even activated its King Trait: Thousand-League Conquest.
anwhile, the suppressed Naless Cocoon had never been so well-behaved. It retracted all of its spiritual fluctuations. At this mont, even without the suppression of the Sealed Prison, it wouldn’t dare have any stray thoughts. As a newborn larva, it was a delicious supplent in the eyes of many powerful sea beasts.
But the Abyss Lord’s thoughts were never on them.
It was currently focused solely on its fury toward this audacious human who dared to steal its severed limb and commit such a blasphemous act.
...
...
...
While fleeing, Shi Ming rendezvoused with the Dayun. After sailing north at top speed for another hour, he saw a colossal wandering ship erge on the distant horizon. It was a massive, Pyramid-style wandering ship with a golden hull and tiered structures that supported a noble, supre Golden Do.
Beneath the do, Ptolemy awaited news of the trio’s triumphant return.
The Pharaoh.
A glint appeared in Shi Ming’s eyes.
’General Trait! Crown Prince! Activate!’
’General Trait! Montum Breaker! Activate!’
’Ptolemy, today, you’re going to run into a bit of fortune again!’
