Chapter 376: Undying Characteristics

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The surface of the sea rose and fell, and waves were created from time to time. The clouds had long been dispersed by the aftershock of the collision, and a crescent moon could clearly be seen.

Two giants of the same size stood facing each other, separated by a few kilometers. The black-helmeted giant riding on a huge warhorse had a dark expression on his face.

“What is the bone beast doing?”

Working together to escape from the blockade did not mean that the two sides had a good relationship. This was because there were also other creatures from the dark forest world at the fusion realm on the blue planet.

Now that there was a problem with the sacrificial ritual, the black-helmeted giant’s first reaction was to suspect that the bone beast had somehow tricked it.

The black-helmeted giant turned its head slightly. Most of its attention was no longer on Chen Yiming, but on the bottomless black trench.

When Chen Yiming saw the change in the black-helmeted giant, he knew that it was panicking.

He was not in a hurry. The spiritual figure that had broken through to the fusion realm was quickly destroying most of the connections between the Yin and Yang formations.

The bone beast was using the mysterious symbols to control the Yin and Yang formations across the entire planet. Its power was too scattered.

Before the spiritual figure broke through, it could already cause a huge amount of interference to their plan, let alone after breaking through to the fusion realm.

Now, the balance of their combat strength had changed, and the bone beast that originally had the absolute advantage from the absolute advantage was now inferior to the spiritual figure. The other party still did not know about this sudden change.

Just as the two giants fell silent, the surface of the sea suddenly rose more than 10 meters before falling back to its original position.

The black-helmeted giant was completely attracted by the change at the bottom of the sea. It turned around and showed its back to its opponent.

“Is the war weapon about to be activated? I wonder how it’s different from what the huge eye did?” Chen Yiming thought to himself.

The only regret was that the plan to send the first city-level spaceship out of the blockade had failed because of the actions of the bone beast and the black-helmeted giant.

This was a rare opportunity for Chen Yiming to let the creatures at the level of the fusion realm from the dark forest world lead the charge. He could hide at the back and understand the true level of the blockade.

After a special barrier appeared around the trench, he knew that the scene he had seen was what the blockade wanted him to see. The real situation within it was definitely not just that.

Suddenly, countless splashes appeared on the distant sea.

“Boom!”

Black tentacles suddenly broke through the surface of the water and shot into the sky. There were a few dozen of them, and they were each extremely thick.

At the same time, a terrifying aura spread out. It could be clearly felt even from thousands of kilometers away.

The war weapon had been activated in advance due to the black-helmeted giant’s attack that had combined its essence, energy, and spirit.

“Trying to escape?”

Chen Yiming smiled and stopped the black-helmeted giant.

After confirming that the war weapon had been activated, the other party had immediately made the decision to hide its aura and move to another location. The reason why it was easily stopped by Chen Yiming was because the black-helmeted giant didn’t even dare to use half of its strength.

The spiritual figure had already broken through to the fusion realm and could be summoned at any time.

In any case, the blockade this time would definitely have a strong start but a weak finish. If he did not intimidate them, the existences at the level of the fusion realm from the dark forest world might target the humans again when they tried to break out of the encirclement.

“Do you want to die?”

The black-helmeted giant glared angrily at him, and the huge warhorse he was riding also revealed an anxious expression.

A complete war weapon had once dominated the dark forest world and killed countless creatures at the fusion realm. It was an existence that the power of the entire dark forest world could not stop.

It was also because of this that when humans extended their hands into the otherworld from their stronghold, they had never encountered the collective hostility of the otherworld creatures. This was because after the black tide’s first invasion of the dark forest world, the powerful creatures had all gone into hiding.

Now, even if the war weapon was incomplete, it was not something that a single creature at the fusion realm could fight against.

“Since the war weapon reacts to the power fluctuations at the fusion realm, the target will definitely not be me.” Chen Yiming smiled again.

“You’re courting death!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the huge warhorse took a step forward and arrived right in front of Chen Yiming. A halberd appeared in the black-helmeted giant’s hand. The halberd was a weapon formed from mysterious symbols, and it was extremely durable. As it was waved around, the sky changed color.

“So what if you’re at the fusion realm? With an attack at a lower level, do you think I’ll be afraid of you?”

Chen Yiming didn’t take a step back or try to dodge. He used his body to meet the attack head-on, and his fist struck the crescent-shaped blade of the halberd.

“Boom!”

With a loud bang, an explosion engulfed the two giant figures.

In the next moment, the shock wave caused by the collision dispersed the waves, turning into an invisible shock wave that created a tsunami that rushed towards the coast.

At this moment, the figures of the two giants reappeared. Chen Yiming was fighting one against two, and had blocked the opponent’s halberd attack head-on.

It had to be known that other than the power from the fusion realm, the black-helmeted giant’s strength also included that of its warhorse.

“Damn it!”

Looking at the smiling face in front of it, the black-helmeted giant had never felt so aggrieved. If not for the fact that it did not dare to use the power of the fusion realm, it would have long used the combination of its essence, energy, and spirit to completely defeat its opponent.

This humiliation was second only to the time when its lower body had been devoured.

“You’re at the fusion realm. I didn’t expect you to be so weak.” Chen Yiming provoked his opponent further, refusing to let the black-helmeted giant escape.

Thousands of kilometers away, the tentacles of the war weapon seemed to be piercing straight through the clouds. No one knew when they would make a move.

The two huge figures quickly clashed again and again.

The black-helmeted giant’s abilities leaned towards strength, destructive power, and a strong physique. Without being able to use its power at the level of the fusion realm, Chen Yiming wasn’t afraid of his opponent at all.

Once, twice, dozens of times, hundreds of times.

The commotion from the battle on the surface of the sea had already been captured by a large number of satellites from various angles. However, because the speed was too fast, the images either contained many after-images or looked like they were not moving.

The only thing that could be confirmed was that Chen Yiming was safe and sound and had even held back the enemy.

…

At the international video conference,

the atmosphere that had fallen into despair eased up a little after the unknown ritual was interrupted. When the satellite images from the sea appeared, their confidence in the space plan was finally reignited.

“It doesn’t seem like the giant riding the mount is invincible!”

The leader of a small country could tell from the expressions on their faces that the one who was trying to escape was the black-helmeted giant. The balance of strength among the two sides was obvious.

“That’s right. It would be even better if we could kill the giant knight. Otherwise, it will continue to spy on us,” another leader of a small country said.

The leaders of the European Union, Sam Nation, and Russia also heaved a sigh of relief.

The world had changed too quickly. They had thought that with the combined strength of most of the countries on the blue planet, the space plan should be able to be completed quickly. Who knew that things would not be so simple in reality?

Among the creatures from the dark forest world that had come to the blue planet, there was a terrifying existence that could easily destroy their entire world. The black obelisks and the unknown ritual that surrounded all the human cities proved this.

If not for the fact that the ritual had been interrupted and Chen Yiming had stopped the black-helmeted giant, it would be difficult to say if the humans would still be alive.

The top leader of the Daxia Kingdom still had a serious expression on his face.

Unlike the other heads of countries, he knew much more about the inside information, including the weapon of war, the huge eye that was secretly making moves, and the existence behind the ice crystal-like hair.

The arrival of the black tide had long been determined to be unstoppable. Then, as long as the human spaceships could not successfully break through the blockade, everything would just be a futile struggle.

They had overcome this hurdle for the time being. The next hurdle might appear soon. Would they be able to overcome it then?

…

On the snowy mountain.

“As expected, it failed.”

The flickering light in the huge eye was retracted, and its pupil returned to its usual state.

Because it was still recovering, it did not use its spiritual power if it could avoid it. This was so that it could prepare for its next move after escaping the blockade.

“I’m so tired. I thought we were about to break through the blockade.”

When the snow beast saw that the ritual had failed, it immediately felt sleepy. It exhaled a long stream of white fog that turned into hard ice crystals that sealed off the entrance to the cavern.

Then, it lay down and immediately fell into a deep sleep.

The huge eye and the snow beast, one was for it, and the other was against it. However, no matter what, they would have to follow the situation. The alliance between the two sides was just to prevent them from being targeted by the bone beast and the black-helmeted giant. Their main goal was to protect themselves.

…

Along the equator, in an uninhabited area, there was a long corridor made of white bones. Along the way, there were white bones on both sides that carried the head of a huge beast.

At this moment, as if an unknown force had swept through the area, the heads of these giant beasts exploded and turned into dust.

At the end of the corridor, there was a throne made of white bones. The bone beast lying on it let out a furious roar that shook the surroundings.

“Who is it?”

The bone beast had lost control of the Yin and Yang formations scattered around the world. They were destroyed by someone with power at the level of the fusion realm.

The two pale flames in its pupils were dancing crazily, indicating its anger.

It had never suspected that the target was a human. The first possibility it had thought of was the huge eye. After all, it had once thought of devouring the huge eye. Perhaps it had planted a seed of conflict back then.

However, on second thought, since they had yet to escape the blockade, there was no reason for the huge eye to ruin their plan.

“Could it be that a black tide creature is willing to pay the price and descend on this planet in advance?”

After thinking about it, this seemed to be the only possibility. The strongest human had already been trapped, and the huge eye shared their common goal of escaping the blockade.

Only the black tide that treated this planet as its own possession would make a move to stop their plan.

During the second invasion of the small forest world, the black tide had only remotely launched the war weapons left in the sea. No new black tide creatures had invaded the world.

After a while, the bone beast turned to look in the direction of the oceanic trench. The war weapon there had been activated in advance.

“Forget it, let’s gather first. It’s just an incomplete war weapon. There’s still a way to break out of the encirclement.”

There was a qualitative difference between a complete war weapon and the power of someone at the level of the fusion realm. It could still hide or dodge an incomplete war weapon from a distance.

…

On the surface of the sea.

“The black-helmeted giant’s companion is here.”

The spiritual figure had already hidden in the surroundings and communicated with Chen Yiming immediately.

The bone beast didn’t hide itself. Instead, it headed over as quickly as possible. The commotion caused by the black-helmeted giant’s attack at the place where Chen Yiming was trapped was like a light in the night sky.

This was the power that a creature at the fusion realm should have. The bone beast had never felt that there was anything on this planet that could threaten its existence other than the black tide.

That way, it only needed to circle around and stay away from the war weapon that had been triggered in advance.

“I intended to let you off earlier, but let’s see how you escape now.”

The black-helmeted giant sensed that the bone beast was heading its way, so it let out a furious roar, as if it was venting the frustration it had accumulated from the battle.

It was actually being held back by a human who was an entire realm lower than it, and it could not defeat him with only its power at the level of the inscription realm.

In reality, it was possible to retreat in such a sorry state, but unless it was in a life-and-death situation, it would never do that. This was because the opponent was only at the level of the inscription realm.

“Sword, come!”

Chen Yiming leaped up, and a flash of light appeared in the sky. In the next moment, a divine sword flew into his hand and he slashed down from above.

“You won’t escape even if it’s one against two?”

The black-helmeted giant was furious again. Why was the situation always different from what it imagined?

Of course, it could not retreat. This was its dignity when facing a creature of a lower level. Therefore, it used the power of its warhorse and its strength, brandishing its halberd to meet the attack.

At the last moment, when the two sides came into contact, the sword-shaped mark on the divine sword flashed and activated the power of the fusion of essence, energy, and spirit.

Chen Yiming thought that since his cultivation level was low and he wasn’t a target for the war weapon, he could just escape.

“Swish!”

Under the dumbfounded gaze of the black-helmeted giant, the halberd was first broken into two pieces, then the black helmet exploded. Finally, even the black giant and its warhorse were split into two.

The terrifying blood aura and black flames immediately spread out, and the surface of the sea within a range of more than 100 kilometers was filled with black and red. The view of the sky also became blurry due to the waves of heat emanating from the surface of the sea.

Such a terrifying scene seemed to be broadcasting the death of a creature at the level of the fusion realm.

“It died just like that?”

Chen Yiming quickly communicated with the spiritual figure.

“It’s just that its body was destroyed. The explosion of essence, energy, and spirit earlier failed to hit the Undying Mark in its body,” the spiritual figure explained.

The Undying Mark was a product of the fusion of the physical body, spiritual power, and mysterious symbols. An example was the sword-shaped mark on the divine sword formed by the spiritual figure.

It could be said that creatures at the fusion realm could no longer be described as supernatural creatures. Their bodies and minds were strongly tied to the mysterious symbols, and they had laid the groundwork for the Undying characteristics.

As long as the Undying Mark in its body was not destroyed, all the damage caused by the attacks could be quickly transferred elsewhere. Its injuries could also be healed in a way similar to memory processes.

What he saw was just an illusion. As long as the black-helmeted giant wanted to, he could recover on the spot without having sustained any injuries.

“Are you deliberately pretending to be weak to lure me over to check things out?” Chen Yiming communicated with the spiritual figure again.

“The Undying Mark and the fusion attack using one’s essence, energy, and spirit are both from the fusion realm. It should be the result of the other party deliberately suppressing its strength earlier,” the spiritual figure explained.
