Chapter 534: Tentacles and Netherwater (Two in One)_2
"Just with that level of strength, you think you can stop our Priest Lord's avatar?"
Brain Deficient looked at those white flames with contempt, his eyes full of disdain. His red tentacles possessed the powerful strength of a Heavenly Connection realm, a being that could walk sideways even in deeper regions, let alone this area! Even when facing the trump cards of the Moon God Race, his red tentacles were not the least bit weaker!
"The red tentacles of Heavenly Connection realm, not only can they disregard all flames, their hardness is extremely formidable too. Up to now, there hasn't been anyone who can shatter my red tentacles—"
Whoosh!
A streak of white light sliced through the air from the lava, cleaving the red tentacles!
The red tentacles were severed at the sound!
Brain Deficient hadn't even finished his sentence when his expression froze, and then his eyes incredulously widened!
His seemingly indestructible, powerful Heavenly Connection realm Priest Lord's avatar had been cut off just like that?
How could this be possible?
Just a few days ago, he had fought a both-sides-suffered battle with Ri An of the Moon God Race. Although they both were injured, the red tentacles weren't seriously damaged, so how could they be abruptly severed at this moment?
Not to mention, he had just been boasting about how formidable the Priest Lord's avatar was, and he hadn't even finished his praise before it was destroyed!
"Who is it?"
Brain Deficient snapped back to reality, his gaze warily sweeping around, looking for the person who made the move.
Soon, his eyes landed on a person who had suddenly appeared, standing amidst the lava.
It was a calm and collected young man, elegant and dashing, standing in the lava as if merging with it, without any sense of abruptness, everything seeming so natural.
It was indeed Xiang Beifei!
"Woof woof!"
Xiaohei and Erha breathed a sigh of relief. With Xiang Beifei here, the situation was different. The two little creatures immediately leaped onto Xiang Beifei's shoulders, looking at the opponent spiritedly.
The White Flame Skeleton also hurriedly jumped beside Xiang Beifei, looking at him with astonishment. It had only been a few days apart, and he didn't understand why Xiang Beifei seemed to have changed completely. Although he was still the familiar person, his aura had become somewhat elusive.
"A human?"
Brain Deficient did not recognize Xiang Beifei, and this was the first time he had seen this young man, feeling very surprised!
"No, it's impossible for a human to have come here. Is it someone from the Moon God Race?"
The young man's temperament was in no way inferior to Ye Ji or Ri An, but the carefree air about him was something the two from the Moon God Race fell far short of.
Besides, although the Moon God Race is very cunning, they usually have a faint shining effect when they appear, especially those holy white wings on their backs.
However, the young man who had suddenly appeared did not have white light effects when he appeared, let alone wings.
For Brain Deficient, identifying a race only required the use of powerful Perception ability to analyze the target's aura, which would usually reveal the target's identity.
But no matter how hard Brain Deficient tried to perceive the man before him, the other seemed like just a projection, standing there, visible but imperceptible!
Meanwhile, Ri An and Ye Ji had also arrived. They too, upon seeing the severed piece of the red tentacle in the lava, were slightly taken aback. Soon after, their gaze turned to the Erha on Xiang Beifei's shoulder.
"Ji Li, what's going on? Is this one of your Demon Tentacle Race?" Ri An asked with a serious tone.
She could not perceive Xiang Beifei's aura either, but given his appearance, her first thought was that he might be from the Demon Tentacle Race, parasitizing a human host.
"It's not! I thought he was one of your Moon God Race," Brain Deficient clenched his gaze on Xiang Beifei, extremely wary inside. He didn't even know Xiang Beifei's origins, let alone his level of cultivation.
Could he really be a human?
But humans hardly ever venture far from the Jiuzhou continent. They tend to nestle there, and those who appear here are mostly dead, just husks parasitized by creatures like Ghost Mustache of Remnant Visage.
Ri An, looking at the tentacle fragment dissolving in the lava and then at Brain Deficient, asked, "How did your Priest avatar get severed? Weren't you claiming that the avatar was invincible? How did it end up being cleaved in two?"
Brain Deficient knew Ri An was mocking him, he snorted coldly, and said, "This guy is not simple!"
Ye Ji remained silent, calmly observing Xiang Beifei. He was relatively composed compared to the others and still unsure of Xiang Beifei's identity, not underestimating his opponent at all.
However, Ri An on the side was already impatient.
"No matter who it is, let's deal with them first! We must capture that Kylin!"
All of Ri An's attention was focused on the Kylin that had shrunk on Xiang Beifei's shoulder, which was her current target. She would mercilessly slay anyone who dared to stand in her way!
Whoosh!
Ri An flashed instantly, her figure speeding past, leaving a lingering afterimage in the air. Sharp black claws burst forth from her withered yellow hands, like fearsome blades, slashing towards Xiang Beifei!
"Hold on! Don't be careless!" Ye Ji shouted in a low voice.
"Relax! I'm not as useless as those Demon Tentacle Race." Ri An grinned fiercely, spitting out yellow spring water from her mouth. The stench spread far and wide, causing even the surrounding lava to lose its luster.
"The water of the Yellow Springs is taken from the dead tombs of the ultra-negative lands, possessing the most powerful corrosive ability. It's not something that cooked octopus tentacles can compare with!"
During her last confrontation with Brain Deficient, Ri An lost a wing and hadn't fully recovered yet, but even with only one wing, it did not affect her ability to deploy her strong cards!
However, Xiang Beifei just looked indifferent, lifting his head and gripping the broken sword in his hand!
Whoosh!
A barely visible ripple shone on Wufeng, a faint light circling the blade as he slashed down towards the foul-smelling yellow water!
Splash!
The seemingly unstoppable yellow water was actually split into two by the sword's light, vanishing into the air!
"What?"
Ri An's face changed drastically!
Her pride, the Yellow Springs water, had been cleaved away?
How was that possible!
She suddenly seemed to understand why Brain Deficient's similarly Heavenly Connection realm tentacles were cut off. The man in front of her was very strange!
But after Xiang Beifei's sword light shattered the yellow water, it did not stop but continued to fall towards her.
The sword seemed plain and unremarkable, and it didn't seem to hold much power. But Ri An didn't dare to underestimate it. A sword light that could shatter red tentacles and her pride, the Yellow Springs water—if she underestimated it again, that would mean she was brain damaged!
But the sword was too fast, Ri An had no chance to dodge. She gritted her teeth, prepared to take the strike head-on, when Ye Ji already rushed forward, grabbed Ri An, and dragged her backward!
Whoosh!
The sword light brushed past Ri An's back!
"Ah!"
Ri An let out a scream as her last remaining wing was struck, falling into the magma and instantly turning into ash, with not even a single bubble rising.
Now she had become a wingless monster with her wings cut off.
This was all thanks to Ye Ji for pulling her back. Otherwise, Ri An would have suffered more than just a cut wing – she would have been cleaved in half!
Ri An, gasping for breath, looked at Xiang Beifei with horror on her face, feeling both pain and humiliation from the wound on her back.
"How could this guy be so strong?" Ri An couldn't help but exclaim in shock,"Could he be from the Extremity Abyss?"
"No, I would recognize those guys from the Extremity Abyss."
Brain Deficient was truly astonished. Although he always opposed them from the Extremity Abyss, he could recognize what their race looked like at a glance. The man in front of him had none of the Extremity Abyss's aura!
"Could he really be human?" Ye Ji said in a low voice.
The moment those words were spoken, both Brain Deficient and the two Meat-Winged Monsters felt it was incredible, because there were very few humans who could make it this far!
Of course, it wasn't unheard of.
"Whether he's human or not, let's join forces and kill him first!" Ri An commanded.
Her only target was the Kylin on Xiang Beifei's shoulder!
