Chapter 4884
A treasure trove!
"Roar!--"
Faced with Ling Feng's powerful attack, the eyeball emitted an extremely violent mental roar, a shriek that directly impacted the soul. Ling Feng's expression changed, and he quickly regained his composure. If he were bewitched by that demonic sound, he would probably die on the spot in an instant.
In an instant, countless thick blood vessels connecting to the eyeballs writhed violently. At the end of each blood vessel, even thicker tentacles covered in black bone armor and covered with ferocious barbs began to grow wildly, like a horde of demons dancing wildly, strangling and attacking Ling Feng from all directions.
These tentacles are not only incredibly powerful, but also incredibly fast, each strike accompanied by a piercing shriek that tears through space.
At the same time, the remaining purplish-black mist in the basin frantically condensed, transforming into countless twisted vengeful spirits and colossal figures of various terrifying monsters, like a black tide, carrying a chilling cold and chaotic whispers, impacting the very source of the soul.
At the same time, the black water boiled, stirring up huge waves containing corrosive power, which swept towards Ling Feng from all directions.
This "big-eyed monster" made its move, creating an inescapable trap and a deadly situation.
It will crush this "ant" that dares to challenge its authority, along with its soul, completely!
Ling Feng took a deep breath. As expected of the overlord of this mountain stream area, it was indeed fundamentally different from other mountain streams.
But no matter what, he must get through this today!
hum!
In an instant, the 1,200 star meridians within his body ignited like a galaxy, suddenly starting to operate at full speed.
The primordial breath, compressed to its limit, burst forth with unprecedented power like a surging torrent.
The next moment, his figure suddenly became illusory!
This is not simply about increasing speed, but rather about incorporating another level of application between the "singularity" and space.
In other words, he is now able to use the singularity with ease.
Even its own body can transform into a singularity!
With each step he took, he left a spatial "ripple" beneath his feet that instantly collapsed and then recovered, using this subtle spatial distortion to perform almost illogical turns and speed changes!
laugh!laugh!laugh!
Several tentacles narrowly missed his afterimage, lashing out at rocks and water, creating huge craters, but they didn't even touch a single hem of his clothing.
He was like a ghost dancing on a knife's edge, darting and flashing precisely between tentacles and giant waves.
As the violent mental shock surged towards him, a flash of blood-red light appeared in the third vertical pupil between his eyebrows, and the "Asura Killing Realm" quietly unfolded, completely isolating most of the impact.
It can be said that the existence of this third vertical pupil is the "nemesis" of that big-eyed monster!
"Good lad! You really do manage to surprise people in every way!"
On a giant rock on the shore, Xi stood with his arms crossed, his golden eyes reflecting the battle, and nodded slightly.
He had witnessed Ling Feng's growth firsthand, and his performance at this moment was nothing short of perfect.
“However…” Xi’s lips curled into a smile, “Just hiding won’t be enough to beat that guy!”
Meanwhile, Ling Feng, who was deeply involved in the battlefield, suddenly turned his body at an incredible angle and took the initiative to meet the three giant bone armor tentacles that were strangling him in a "品" shape!
"Starfall Force - Triple Collapse!"
He let out a low shout, but instead of wielding the Ten Directions Annihilation spell, he clenched his left fist and unleashed three punches in an instant.
With each punch, a tiny "black light" flashes and disappears in front of the fist, a manifestation of the extreme application of singularity compression.
boom! boom! boom!
Three extremely muffled explosions rang out almost simultaneously!
In an instant, a huge spiral-shaped crater burst open on each of the three tentacles, and the spiral force was injected into the tentacles, rising against the current and rapidly spreading towards the "big-eyed monster's" main body.
The giant-eyed monster's enormous eyes suddenly revealed a look of horror. With a strange cry, it shattered the three tentacles, finally managing to stop the spread of the spiraling force.
It stared intently at Ling Feng, clearly having been thoroughly enraged by him.
"Hmph, this isn't over yet!"
Using the force of the recoil, Ling Feng rose higher again, looking down at the giant eyeball from the air.
He gripped the hilt of the Singularity Greatsword tightly with both hands, and in an instant, all the power of his stellar veins was frantically poured into the blade.
"Obsidian Sky-Splitting Slash!"
He raised his sword with both hands and slashed down fiercely!
Rumble!
As the sword fell, a twisted black crack appeared in the space.
On both sides of the crack, the light was completely swallowed up, and the violent annihilation sword energy poured out along the crack. A pitch-black sword aura that seemed capable of cleaving the heavens and the earth slashed straight towards the deepest dark pupil in the center of the eyeball.
Sensing a deadly threat, the eyeball let out an extremely sharp screech, and all its tentacles frantically retracted, layering and intertwining in front of the pupil to form a giant shield covered with bone spurs and mucus.
At the same time, the surrounding black water surged wildly towards the shield, solidifying into pitch-black ice crystals for reinforcement, while the purplish-black mist condensed into countless twisted faces, howling as they crashed into the sword energy, attempting to deplete its power.
boom!
Finally, the sword energy struck!
In an instant, the outermost layer of black water ice crystals vaporized, the giant shield made of bone spikes and tentacles was easily cut open, and those wailing faces collapsed like bubbles at the slightest touch!
The jet-black sword energy, unstoppable, pierced fiercely into the enormous eyeball.
"Roar! Ro ...
The big-eyed monster screamed madly, and the entire mountain stream shook violently, with the black water churning and exploding like boiling asphalt.
A black, unhealable gash appeared at the point where the pupil had been struck. Black blood gushed from the edges of the gash, and the entire eyeball was covered with blood vessels resembling cracks, which were rapidly spreading outwards.
The monster was in so much pain that its entire body was convulsing violently, and black blood was pouring down like a waterfall. Before long, its life force was visibly waning.
The previously raging light in that enormous eyeball quickly dimmed, replaced by an intense pain and fear.
"Spare...spare me...my lord...spare me..."
A broken, pitiful pleas for mercy rang out.
"So you can speak human language!"
Ling Feng snorted coldly, his body hovering in mid-air, carrying the Ten Directions Annihilation on his shoulder. He coldly stared at the huge eyeball below, which was writhing in pain, but did not immediately strike.
Based on his experience, old monsters of this caliber would inevitably be accompanied by powerful treasures.
"My lord... I'm willing to offer... my most precious treasure... I only ask... I only ask to live..."
The big-eyed monster trembled. It was only wary of Xi on the shore and paid no attention to Ling Feng.
Unexpectedly, Ling Feng was almost immune to its most effective mental attacks, and Ling Feng's use of the singularity was truly impeccable.
Defeated by Ling Feng was both unexpected and reasonable.
It sighed in frustration before continuing, "I...I have a...Nine-Colored Glazed Pearl...which I...obtained by chance...relying on it...I evolved from an ordinary stream spirit...to become the ruler of this place...It contains...incredible power...it will definitely be of use to you..."
"Oh? A nine-colored glass bead?"
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow slightly.
The creature must be extraordinary to have evolved to its current level. He was skilled and daring, unafraid of any tricks, and coldly stared at the monster, saying calmly, "Take it out and let me see."
"Yes Yes……"
The big-eyed monster seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and its injured pupil began to move and contract with difficulty, as if searching for something deep inside its body.
At the same time, the ruptured blood vessels on its body wriggled, expelling a large amount of black blood and broken tissue. In no time, its size shrank considerably.
A moment later, a faint but pure colored light slowly shone from the depths of the pupil.
The radiance was composed of nine interwoven colors. Although faint, it had a strange quality that allowed it to penetrate the mist and calm the mind, which was completely out of place with the overall chaos and filth of the Eternal Ruins.
The treasure appears to be real.
The next moment, the colorful light grew brighter and brighter, and a pearl about the size of a fist, perfectly round, with nine-colored light flowing inside, slowly emerged from the depths of the pupil, exuding an alluring aura.
"My lord, this is... the Nine-Colored Glazed Pearl. Please come and take it. I am just too... too weak..."
Ling Feng's gaze sharpened, and he immediately flew forward, preparing to grab the precious pearl.
Just as Ling Feng approached the giant-eyed monster—
A sudden change has occurred!
The seemingly weak and dying monster with its large eyes suddenly contracted its pupils to the extreme, and then, a gray-black spike condensed, which shot towards Ling Feng's brow at the last second!
This black thorn contains the full power of the Big-Eyed Monster's counterattack.
Its mental attack cannot disturb Ling Feng from the outside, but as long as it directly penetrates Ling Feng's mental sea through a thrust, it will not only be able to turn the tide of battle, but also directly devour Ling Feng and make him a part of itself.
"Hmph! I was prepared for this!"
Ling Feng's eyes flashed with a cold light, showing no surprise whatsoever!
He never intended to keep this big-eyed monster alive; he wanted the treasure, and he wanted the big-eyed monster's life too!
The moment the gray-black spike shot out, Ling Feng had already raised his left hand, palm facing forward, fingers slightly spread.
In front of his palm, a point of deep black light had already silently condensed.
That was an "Obsidian" that had been compressed to its limit and was ready to explode at any moment!
He had pretended to be lured by the treasure and approached it, seemingly falling into the Big-Eyed Monster's trap. In reality, he had deliberately put himself in the game, ready to give the Big-Eyed Monster a good taste of a close-range "Obsidian" attack!
"Obsidian, explode!"
Ling Feng's lips moved slightly, and he coldly uttered three words.
Then, the "black light" in the palm was gently pushed forward.
"No!"
The giant-eyed monster stared at Ling Feng in astonishment, its enormous pupils revealing utter despair.
Finished!
It's all over!
Obsidian shot directly into the deep crack in the eyeball of the giant eye monster.
Then, a huge vortex began to churn wildly from the inside, and the big-eyed monster rapidly collapsed inward. Almost instantly, it was completely annihilated and disappeared from Ling Feng's sight.
Where the giant-eyed monster once stood, only a fist-sized orb remained, hovering in mid-air, radiating nine-colored light and spinning endlessly.
This item must be the real Nine-Colored Glazed Pearl!
"Even the obsidian couldn't erase it. This thing is extraordinary!"
Ling Feng's eyes lit up, and he reached out and grabbed the nine-colored glass pearl, holding it in his palm and examining it carefully.
At the same time, Xi's figure flashed on the shore and appeared next to Ling Feng in the next moment.
"Excellent! Ling Feng, you won even more easily than I expected. All the training I've given you over this period of time has paid off!"
Xi's face was full of approval. "You succeeded! We can move on!"
In fact, Xi did not believe that Ling Feng could succeed in the challenge on the first try.
He even felt that if Ling Feng could defeat the big-eyed monster within three attempts, it would already be incredibly miraculous.
Unexpectedly, Ling Feng actually managed to wipe out the big-eyed monster in one go.
This kid is a real prodigy!
"This is all thanks to your guidance and teachings, Godfather!"
Ling Feng chuckled and then handed the nine-colored glass pearl he had just obtained to Xi. "Father, what exactly is this pearl?"
Xi reached out and took it, examining it in his palm for a moment before his eyelids suddenly twitched.
Then, as if remembering something, he handed the pearl back to Ling Feng.
"Godfather, this item seems to have a calming effect on your mind and will be of great help to you. Please take it!"
Ling Feng waved his hand. He had the Asura Killing Realm protecting his spiritual sea, so this precious pearl was obviously more suitable to be left to Xi.
Xi shook his head. "This is your spoils of war, so it naturally belongs to you. This item is quite extraordinary, so keep it safe. It might come in handy when you climb that giant mountain."
"Forehead……"
Ling Feng couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to accept the pearl and nodded, saying, "Then I'll keep it with me for now."
"Ok!"
Xi's gaze sharpened, and he looked at the remaining part of the "Big-Eyed Monster's" body.
Although Ling Feng's Black Obsidian blast wiped out most of the giant eyeball, some remains of the creature still fell into the black water when the singularity's power was exhausted.
Xi Yi raised his hand, grabbed a thick tentacle, then yanked up the giant-eyed monster's corpse and threw it at Ling Feng's feet.
"Xiaofeng, don't waste these. This monster is a treasure trove, its body accumulating the essence of countless years, making it a thousand times stronger than those ordinary tentacles. You should devour and refine them; they will greatly benefit you."
Ling Feng nodded, no longer caring whether it was disgusting or not.
The key point is that it can enhance one's strength!
He carefully put away the nine-colored glass bead, then grabbed the remains of the big-eyed monster and began to devour them.
It has to be said that the overlord is indeed the overlord. Even a single bite of it is equivalent to the primordial energy that an entire tentacle could provide.
Moreover, the purity of this breath of creation is several times higher than that of ordinary tentacles!
Ling Feng even felt a pang of regret; he should have known better than to use Obsidian as his final move, as he had wasted a large portion of the corpses. (End of Chapter)
