Chapter 1845 - The Unconquerable Mis
It was slightly different from before because the Black Monarch did not appear perfect as she had in the past. This was because half of her left arm was missing. The wound on her severed arm had countless gray-black worms squirming within it and was growing slowly.
Yes, this was the injury that the Eternal Heaven had caused before. The Black Monarch was not as lucky as the Spirit Monarch. She had been near the epicenter of the blast. She was still considered rather lucky because the four abyssal kings with her at the time had been killed immediately, leaving neither bones nor corpses.
The Black Monarch relied on her incredible abilities to survive, despite half of her body being blown to pieces. Despite the help of the abyssal Sage King, she had yet to fully recover after recuperating for so many days.
Even the abyssal creatures were horrified by the Eternal Heaven. Fortunately, they believed that there was only one.
In the meantime, she was especially furious upon seeing humans. Her long hair spread out and formed a black wheel, and a gigantic purple-black vortex emerged behind her. The strong suction force immediately pulled at the Skycrosser Douluo Guan Yue.
“Head to the top of the mountain first. Leave this to me,” Guan Yue shouted in a deep voice.
With a shake of the Skycrosser Divine Spear in his hand, countless phantom spears were projected all around. It was as if every phantom spear was being controlled by a huge hand. The spears seemed to have covered everything within one thousand meters.
At the slightest touch of these spears, the abyssal Bomb Bees would immediately revert to abyssal energy and return to the abyssal passage. It felt as if the phantom spears filling the sky were the overlords of the battlefield.
One strike of spearspirit would move Heaven and Earth!
This made even the Black Monarch’ expression change ever so slightly. However, the vortex behind her became deeper, and its powerful suction force devoured almost half of the spears. At the same time, her silhouette flickered and she reappeared to aim a slap at the Skycrosser Douluo. Where she passed, black holes were conjured, devouring everything under the sky!
Guan Yue stepped to the side and swung his Skycrosser Divine Spear, cutting an arc of silver light across the sky. It was as if he was slashing through the air so that the suction force could sweep past his sides.
The spear’s radiance condensed, forming a huge beam that fired at the Black Monarch!
The Black Monarch’ silhouette swayed and projected illusionary shadows to conceal her. With another sway, she arrived diagonally above Guan Yue’s head and pressed down with her palm.
Her palm seemed to bring the weight of the entire sky with it. Despite his cultivation base, Guan Yue’s body sank. However, he had yet to pull back the spear which he had thrust forward earlier. He swung it in a circular motion in the sky.
Instantly, a humongous vortex pulled in a large number of Bomb Bees in the distance before exploding with a loud boom. The pressure on the War God Hall’s powerhouses trying to reinforce their allies on the mountain was reduced immediately.
Guan Yue suddenly somersaulted forward and swung his right leg to resist Black Monarch’ palm descending from the sky.
His body sank while the Black Monarch’ body rose. However, Guan Yue also unleashed his four-word battle armor at that exact moment. His entire body was covered in the battle armor to neutralize the impact of her palm. Everything went according to plan.
This result was not just due to his capabilities, but also his battlefield intelligence.
Meanwhile, more powerhouses from the abyssal plane and the Holy Spirit Cult had dashed out of the abyssal passage in succession. In turn, the Spirit Pagoda’s powerhouses had arrived in a rush.
The great war escalated immediately!
An abyssal troop had already charged at the second defensive line with a gigantic Guardian Longhorn Beetle charging at the forefront. The massive wings on its back were spread open creating a shield one hundred meters in diameter. A huge variety of abyssal creatures were under its protection.
The common low-level abyssal creatures like the six-clawed and four-clawed bats did not deserve its protection. Only those with significant abilities such as the Mei Empress, the Black Monarch, and the high-level clans would stand the chance of being guarded.
The abyssal legion’s cannon fodder had covered almost the entire battlefield to conceal the Guardian Long Beetle so it could continue to advance.
The dense bombardment had slain a large number of abyssal creatures, but they would simply revert to abyssal energy and return to the abyss after their bodies were crushed.
The Guardian Longhorn Beetle had finally arrived at the foot of the mountain, with its enormous shell covered with wounds and scars.
However, it was at this moment when a large abyssal Spirit Dragon wriggled out from underneath its shell. The Spirit Dragon’s eyes turned ghastly blue instantly.
This time, it did not camouflage itself but instead widened its mouth to spit out a pale blue mist at the federal military’s site on the mountain peak.
The mist was very thick and sticky. It covered the abyssal troop at the foot of the mountain at the first breath.
Under the cover of the mist, all the abyssal creatures immediately transformed. The four-clawed bats evolved into six-clawed bats. Their eyes turned blood-red, and they charged forward fearlessly. The scales on the surface of their bodies had also taken on a pale blue glow that protected them like a shield.
It was the same for the rest of the abyssal creatures. The blue mist rapidly altered them, and they began to advance forward.
The abyssal Spirit Dragon swiftly crawled under the numerous abyssal creatures to protect itself. It spat out a mouthful of thick mist with every few steps.
It was the Unconquerable Mist! It was one of the most effective abilities of the abyssal Spirit Dragon.
At the touch of the mist, the abyssal creatures’ power would begin to boil over. In this boiling state, the abyssal creatures would ignite themselves instantly to produce the evolutionary effect. Furthermore, they would not fear death, and their offensive and defensive abilities would be enhanced exponentially. In fact, their durability would be elevated by three times at least.
Of course, the advantage came with a price too. The abyssal creatures that were augmented by the Unconquerable Mist would suffer severe side effects after thirty minutes at most.
The backlash would be fatal for these low-level abyssal creatures. The high-level abyssal creatures would be weakened so much that they would be unable to fight any longer.
Nevertheless, with such a large number of abyssal creatures, did the cost really matter? It was enough for them to gain extremely powerful fighting capabilities for thirty minutes.
That location was not the main target of the abyssal creatures. As a result, when the Spirit Dragon spat out mouthfuls of mists earlier, it did not draw in too much attention from the federal military. The abyssal creatures continued their barrage of attacks.
However, mankind’s forces discovered this issue soon enough and learned that the reconnaissance devices were not functioning. Under the concealment of the thick mist, all the reconnaissance devices were rendered useless. The defensive line on the mountain was abruptly made blind and deaf.
On the other hand, the enormous Ba Ans underwent the biggest shift of all in the thick mist.
The Ba Ans were like mountains of flesh. The mist had brought substantial changes to their bodies and the transformation was truly horrifying.
The ten-meter-tall Ba Ans swelled up to fifteen meters. Gray scales formed on the surface of their skin akin to battle armor, and their bodies were spurting out gray-black mist.
Originally, speed was the weakness of this particular abyssal creature species. The most terrifying part was that their speed had actually increased threefold under the influence of the abyssal Spirit Dragon’s Unconquerable Mist. They climbed the mountain as if it was flat ground and led the numerous abyssal creatures straight to the peak.
Similar situations were happening in almost all directions. Meanwhile, the War God Hall’s powerhouses had just arrived on the mountain peak when they were met by the mocking eyes of the three commanding abyssal Spirit Dragons.
The three great Spirit Dragon commanders widened their mouths simultaneously to spit out the Unconquerable Mist that had already covered the entire mountain. At once, the abyssal creatures that had just made their way to the mountain rapidly underwent all sorts of transformations.
There were a large number of abyssal creatures that came there. A Guardian Longhorn Beetle that could only protect the range of one hundred meters in diameter had swelled up to twice the size. A ranged attack of a War God struck its body and only caused some ripples.
With their speed accelerated, the abyssal legion arrived at the mountain peak almost instantly. The War Gods stationed there could not even launch an attack before they had been killed.
