novelThe Void Locust Kaiser
| ← Ch.0954 | Ch.0956 → |
Bai Li's haughty attitude earlier had indeed angered Vienna too. Nonetheless, she kept her cool and hid her cold, demeaning nature.
"Well, if you don't want to run away now, there's nothing I can do either."
Bai Li smirked before the crystal in her hand beamed out a flash of silver ray. In an instant, the silver ray had caught up onto the Void Locust Kaiser.
West Lord and the others were surprised to see this. It did not occur to them that Bai Li could use spatial runes! The spatial runes were quite rare; in fact, up to this point in history, no human had found the means to locate a source for these runes too. On the other hand, there were a lot of ultra beasts that could use the runes—especially the spatial beasts.
After landing on the Void Locust Kaiser, the silver ray splashed out to form waves of silver ripples in the air, seemingly leaving the beast unharmed.
"Still no use at all!" West Lord opened his mouth and wanted to continue to belittle the brats before him.
However, before he could go on, Qin Feng had already dashed onward to the Void Locust Kaiser.
Of course, he would not be able to handle the Void Locust Kaiser's attack. The Kaiser was an S-tier beast deity while Qin Feng's body was only as strong as an A-tier beast deity.
However, Qin Feng had S-tier rank internal energy, the entire nine globes of them.
"Asteroid Assimilation! Nine Stars!"
"Thousand Spirit Chain Rend!"
Fusing his internal energy in his Verdant Emperor Saber, Qin Feng unleashed all the spirits that had been absorbed from the beast waves earlier in one go! Right now, there were a million beasts dashing out of his saber! Howling of a million beast spirits could be heard echoing in the wild, spooking civilians in the area to the core of their souls.
The Void Locusts that were flying around aimlessly suddenly let out a deafening shriek.
Then, a massive spatial rift opened up in the sky, allowing a surge of energy to leak out of it before shutting up again.
It took a few seconds for the S-tiers to realize that the one who shut and sealed the spatial rift was Bai Li, the girl dressed in white.
And Qin Feng's Thousand Spirit Chain Rend had landed on the Void Locust Kaiser's body. The Kaiser immediately took a leap backward as its body began to morph into a layer of black. This was a sign that it was entering into the void and if it succeeded, Qin Feng's attack would be wasted.
Suddenly, everyone could sense a pair of invisible talons lunging out and clutching the Void Locust Kaiser, forcefully grabbing it out of the void's entrance. It was then, another one of Qin Feng's attacks had been unleashed.
Seeing that it had no means of evading the attack, the Void Locust Kaiser was enraged as it let out a furious shriek before ramming straight at Qin Feng's Thousand Spirit Chain Rend! In an instance, the Void Locust Kaiser was able to crush the spirits to pieces.
There were over thousands of beast spirits in that attack. The spirits that were crushed were mostly low-tier spirits. There were several sturdier spirits that survived the attack by the Void Locust Kaiser—these were mainly the spirits of the beast king, emperors and deities.
There were over thousands of these spirits in the attack that Qin Feng unleashed. They had now surrounded the Void Locust Kaiser, ramming vehemently on its shell.
These spirits were not just "spirits"—they were also slashes unleashed by the Spirit Chain Rend.
As these spirits made contact on the shell, they turned into powerful slashes and forcibly cut on it, leaving holes and deep cuts behind. Out of the dozens of powerful spirits, two wolf spirits were the most vicious—they actually left a massive hole on the kaiser's shell.
The Void Locust Kaiser let out an excruciating shriek, showing that Qin Feng's attack had indeed harmed the creature—the creature that was impossible to land an attack on earlier.
West Lord and the others had tried to attack it for two days but were not able to leave even a dent on it. And yet, Qin Feng was able to not only stop it in its tracks but also harm it.
However, due to it being hurt, the Void Locust Kaiser was enraged. It glared at the humans before it as the space around began to distort, sandwiching them like two massive enclosing walls.
Not able to handle the extreme pressure from the spatial attack, the S-tiers leaped and backed away immediately.
Meanwhile, Qin Feng, who was in the middle of the battle, appeared to not be affected at all as several rays of silver light beamed around him—Bai Li was helping him fend off the spatial attacks with her abilities.
Then, Qin Feng continued on unleashing his Thousand Spirit Chain Rend, forcing the Void Locust Kaiser to continue retreating. It was, after all, still a creature belonging to the insect-type. Insectoids were usually weaker when compared individually to other beasts. They were usually able to survive and defeat enemies with their sheer numbers, not the power of one insectoid.
The Void Locust Kaiser was indeed powerful. However, it was still no match for Bai Li.
It might seem like it was Qin Feng who was the one dishing out the attacks that forced the Void Locust Kaiser to back away. However, in truth, Bai Li was the one that had been negating the insectoid's attacks, rendering them powerless.
The problem was, Bai Li's abilities would also weaken Qin Feng's attack. Thus, in order to deal the damage that Qin Feng was doing right now, it would take him a great deal of internal energy to do so. Fortunately for him, he had a large amount of internal energy supply—all nine starglobes of them.
After fighting for three hours, the sky began to turn dark as night slowly encroached. Qin Feng's presence was getting more and more prevalent and yet difficult to lock onto. When night finally fell, Qin Feng's Phantom Shift made it impossible for the Void Locust Kaiser to locate him at all.
Right now, the Void Locust Kaiser was severely wounded. Its silver blood dripped onto the ground again and again, which then solidified and became spatial stones.
If things went on like this for a little while longer, the Void Locust Kaiser would definitely meet its demise soon.
Knowing just what would happen if it were to stay and fight, the Void Locust Kaiser pondered for a moment before turning tail to flee away.
"Spatial Seal!"
Bai Li unleashed her ability, intending to stop the bug from leaving.
However, this time, the Void Locust Kaiser was determined to retreat from the scene. It rammed its head straight at the spatial barrier that Bai Li had formed, hurting its own head while crushing the Spatial Seal.
Then, without hesitation, the Void Locust Kaiser quickly activated its spatial runes, blinking several times and sending itself thousands of meters away.
Bai Li had used the same trick before to bring her and Qin Feng to travel a vast distance. However, it was rather difficult to switch to the fast-travelling skill mid-combat. To catch up to the insectoid at the same speed would be impossible for any ordinary ability user.
The S-tiers were shocked when they saw this.
"We can't let it escape!"
"Quick! We've got to catch up to it!"
The S-tiers were anxious as they wanted to give chase. Qin Feng, however, had stopped moving.
"There's no need to go after it." Qin Feng stopped Bai Li from activating her teleporting skill.
"Why are you not giving chase?! You were that close to killing it!" Oplan asked.
"Why don't you do it then? Your lightning is rather fast. Perhaps if you give chase now, you could actually steal the kill." Qin Feng said.
If a spatial beast were to flee, there was no one that could catch up to it. Thus, instead of chasing after it, it was better for one to wait for it to reappear and then finish it off.
"You! How can you be so reckless? We can't allow this creature to go around unchecked! Who knows how many humans it would kill when we're not looking?" Vienna spoke in contempt.
"You could always scout around to find it. But this time, you better contact me right away so we could actually kill it. Unless you still think that I, an A-tier, am still someone useless in this fight. If that's the case, I'd save my breath and not bother looking for it if I were you." Qin Feng said to the S-tiers before nodding to Bai Li.
Seeing this, Bai Li opened up a spatial tunnel and teleported both of them away, leaving the tongue-tied S-tiers behind.
