Chapter 781
Withering Storm
"Ultimate Dragon Emperor Blazing Cannon!"
The enormous dragon emperor rapidly gathered all its fiery energy and unleashed its most powerful attack.
Vice Captain Du Ziteng also ordered his locusts to launch their strongest attack.
"The locusts will devour the world!"
The dense, overwhelming army of locusts swarmed towards the dark monster high in the sky, devouring it.
Team member Hou Jiajun immediately ordered his Flame Frog to launch its strongest attack.
"Blazing Flames Burn the Sky!"
The enormous frog god, its entire body wreathed in flames, spewed out terrifying jets of blazing fire that could scorch and distort even space itself, towards the pitch-black monster.
Team member Ji Ba Da immediately ordered his artillery god to launch the strongest attack.
"God of Cannons' Strike - Blast the Sky!"
The bizarre summoned beast, whose head resembled an elephant's genitals, opened its massive mouth and unleashed a powerful energy wave, causing the entire arena to tremble instantly.
The last team member, Liu Damei, also ordered her Ice-Freezing Divine Bird to launch its strongest attack.
"Frozen Sky!"
A chilling aura, seemingly capable of freezing everything, surged toward the dark monster, attempting to freeze it.
Faced with the attack of five powerful SS-rank summoned beasts, the black-robed leader merely smiled coldly:
"Ants are just ants."
The black monster, which resembled a giant octopus, suddenly emitted beams of purple light from the single eye on its three heads. These purple beams struck the summoned beasts of the Imperial Guard squad and quickly neutralized their attacks!
Whether it was the Blazing Energy Cannon of the Blazing Dragon Emperor, the Blazing Flame of the Flame Frog, the Sky-Burning Flame of the Cannon God, or the Frozen Cold Qi of the Frozen Bird, all these attacks were quickly disintegrated and seemed to wither away when they were hit by the purple beam.
Even the massive, overwhelming army of locusts summoned by the Sky Locust fell to the ground and died one by one after being illuminated by the purple beam of light.
It's as if he's died of old age.
Upon seeing this, the expressions of the five members of the Imperial Guard squad changed drastically.
The expressions of the hundreds of thousands of spectators in the stands also changed abruptly.
This was the first time they had ever seen an attack with this kind of power!
"This seems to be the ultimate power of decay," a minister murmured on the high platform.
That's right, this is the ultimate power of decay!
The black-robed man's SSS-rank summoned beast, named "Withering Storm," possesses the ultimate power of decay.
Withering means to decay and fade away.
When plants like flowers, grasses, and trees wither and die, they are said to have "died" or "withered."
The black-robed man's Withering Storm possessed extremely unique abilities.
Summoned beasts exposed to the purple beam of light will die quickly, which is extremely terrifying.
Even energy attacks will quickly wither when exposed to the purple beam, as the energy within them rapidly dissipates.
That's what makes it so terrifying!
Back on the high platform, after the energy attacks dissipated, the black-robed man's Wither Storm unleashed beams of purple light from the single eye on each of his three heads once again.
Seeing this, team leader He Guangchen immediately ordered his team to counterattack again.
One attack after another was launched at the withering storm, but these energy attacks would quickly wither away after being hit by the purple beam, and could not exert their power at all.
No, it's completely useless.
As a purple beam of light shone on Ji Ba Da's Cannon God, that SS-level summoned beast, its entire body rapidly aged until it died!
From the moment of exposure to death, it only takes a few seconds!
After the cannon god died, Ji Ba, the summoner, coughed up a mouthful of blood, his consciousness severely damaged. "This, this..."
He stared in disbelief at the dark monster high in the sky.
This ability is absolutely terrifying!
Even after the cannon god was killed, the withering storm high in the sky continued to release purple beams of light.
Liu Damei's Ice-Freezing Divine Bird was also unfortunately hit by the purple beam of light, and its body was rapidly aging and withering until it died!
After its death, its enormous body fell onto the arena.
Liu Damei, who was far away, spat out a mouthful of blood, also suffering a severe blow to her consciousness.
Upon seeing this, the other three people's expressions changed from shock to terror.
Because those purple beams of light are still being released!
Elder Huang, acting as the referee, immediately intervened upon seeing this.
Layers of SSS-level holy light shields immediately protected the three summoned beasts: Blazing Dragon Emperor, Sky Locust, and Flame Frog.
However, when those purple beams shone on these SSS-level holy light shields, these holy light shields also disappeared rapidly!
Soon, these layers of holy light shields were completely destroyed, and He Guangchen's Blazing Dragon Emperor, Du Ziteng's Sky Locusts, and Hou Family Army's Flame Frogs were all irradiated by those purple beams of light.
In an instant, these three summoned beasts also rapidly withered and died!
There was absolutely no chance of defense or resistance!
He Guangchen and the other two also coughed up blood, their minds severely damaged.
Seeing that the summoned beasts of the other three members of the Imperial Guard squad had also been killed under his protection, Elder Huang, the referee, was furious.
"You beast! You will die!"
A massive holy sword of light rapidly condensed in the sky and slashed towards the black-robed man and his withering storm!
"Oh? Are you angry because you're embarrassed?"
The black-robed man at the head of the group smiled coldly, completely disregarding Elder Huang's attack.
Beams of purple light shot onto the holy light giant sword, and the terrifying energy within that sword, which was originally capable of cleaving through space, quickly dissipated.
Upon seeing this, Elder Huang's expression changed drastically.
That black-robed man's summoned beast is truly terrifying!
"Traitor! You're asking for death!"
At this moment, the Great Xia Imperial Guards guarding the dueling arena arrived on the stage one by one, including the Great Xia Imperial Guards patrolling in the sky riding flying summoned beasts. They quickly surrounded the entire arena and tightly surrounded the man in black robes.
Seeing this, the man in black robes showed no fear. He looked at Empress Li Ruotong on the high platform and said with a faint smile, "Oh? Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this from your Great Xia?"
"Traitor! You still dare to play dumb! You wantonly killed the summoned beasts of my Great Xia contestants, you should be executed according to the law!" a general of the Great Xia Imperial Guard shouted coldly.
Upon hearing this, the man in black robes sneered: "What a joke. This is a competition hosted by your Great Xia. Some injuries and deaths are inevitable in the competition. What? Does your Great Xia not want to lose?"
"Or are you afraid that I will win the championship of your dynasty's competition, so you want to take action against me?"
"If that's the case, if word gets out, tsk tsk tsk."
"You're about to die and you still try to argue? You'd better give me your life!"
The imperial guard general was about to make a move, but Empress Li Ruotong on the high platform stopped him in time: "Wait."
"You all stand down!"
Faced with Empress Li Ruotong's order, the imperial guards surrounding the man in black robes had no choice but to quickly retreat. (End of Chapter)
