Chapter 622: Breaking Out of the Formation
Translator: StackThatCoin Editor: Hitesh_
The air was filled with a towering killing intent . As soon as Han Xin bolted towards the monsters, three large stars rose from behind his back, all emitting a dazzling light that illuminated the surroundings . One of them was full of sharp edges, the Seven Killing Star; one was pitch black in color and looked like a black hole, the Greed Star; and the last one was red as blood, with countless ghosts crying and wailing in it, the Vanquisher Star .
With bright tails that measured thousands of feet long, the Seven Killing Needles pierced through the air, landing over and over again on the thirty-six burly figures like a fierce storm . Layers of white light kept springing up, then cracking and shattering, filling the air with thunderous booms that made Han Xin's body tremble violently . His armor of Greed shone with a cold gleam while both of his Vanquisher swords thrust into the air, flashing and slashing .
Before very long, he was surrounded by thirty-six monsters who rained down giant palms on him, each blow strong enough to topple a mountain and drain an ocean . Plumes of dense, dark green poisonous gas swirled about the void, filling every inch between Han Xin and the monsters .
Pretending that he was replenishing his energy, Wu Qi took out a few lower-grade immortal stones, drawing all the energy from them in just a few short breaths of time and turning it into chaotic energy . He did not continue to release the divine flame, but lifted both hands at the same time . His left hand locked into an incantation gesture to throw out numerous primordial runes, which conjured many elemental storms such as wind, earth, fire, and slammed into the monsters . His right palm had beams of blue light shooting out constantly, called the Shivering Ice Thunder; it was a very powerful Yin thunder he learned from the Dark Yin Water Scripture . The attacks made those monsters' bodies flicker with bright light and be overflowing with cold breezes .
Han Xin had proved to be an excellent human shield; Wu Qi was awed by the incredible strength of his fleshly body . He was fighting against the monsters' giant palms with only his fists, each blow strong enough to pierce a hole in the sky, and still pushing the burly beings back again and again . His blows were also blended with the killing intent found only in the battlefield, so fierce and brutal, and had easily dispersed the dark green poisonous gases .
Although Wu Qi was the real target of these monsters, he found himself in an advantageous position with such an excellent human shield blocking all the attacks for him . All he had to do was keep showering those giant beings with all kinds of spells, without having to worry about defending himself . Starshark had turned into a beam of silver-and-green light, wheeling rapidly around him while letting out loud and sonorous cries from time to time and emitting starlight in all directions .
The battle went on for a full hour, and finally, a monster was hit by dozens of Shivering Ice Thunders in a row, which consumed all its fiend armor talismans and allowed three thunderbolts to smash its body at the same time . A cold air capable of freezing and shattering even diamonds rushed into its body along with the thunderbolts, and the white strips twisted around the monster were ripped and shredded to reveal its true look .
Wu Qi could not help but suck in his breath .
The giant monster looked very ferocious . It should have been made from the corpse of a Long Bo man . Its chest was hollowed out and filled with an unknown paste, some kind of medicinal paste . Inside it, a strange heart that was about the size of a man's head was beating violently . Hundreds of black-and-red veins stretched out of the heart to all parts of the monster's body, and the beating heart was constantly pumping power into its body .
Its skin was shriveled and ugly; its muscles were bulging but all tensed up, with fibers clearly visible . It looked like a toad which had been dried up under the sun, full of indescribable cruelty and evilness . And, it had no normal facial features—in its sockets were red crystals instead of eyeballs, its nose and lips had been cut off, and its mouth was full of sharp teeth, all a few inches long and sharp as daggers .
When Wu Qi hit the terrible-looking monster with three thunderbolts at the same time, its body was immediately covered with a thick layer of ice, which caused its movement to slow down suddenly . Seizing the opportunity, Han Xin charged at it like a mad tiger, swinging both his swords to cut off its limbs and head together .
Black blood splashed in all directions, twisting violently in the air like some vipers . All of a sudden, it flew back into the monster's body, pulling the limbs and head back to their original positions . Then, in just the blink of an eye, all the wounds were healed, and the monster casually swung its hand and smashed Han Xin in the back .
Han Xin, who had turned around thinking that the monster was killed, grunted and staggered a few steps forward . The palm strike was at least ten times stronger than all of the previous blows . Fortunately, he was clad in the armor of Greed, which was an immortal item and had prevented the poisonous gases from penetrating his body . Even so, the tremendous force still made him see stars and washed his spine with a severe pain as if it were breaking apart .
"Damn it, what the hell is this thing?" Han Xin cursed, spraying spittle all over Wu Qi . "My Vanquishers bear the killing intent of the stars, capable of destroying the vitality of all living beings . But why is this monster still alive?"
Wu Qi cleared his throat and said indifferently, "How could fellow Daoist Han's swords kill them when they never had any vitality?"
