Chapter 422: Witch, I Like That Look in Your Eyes!
After obtaining the Rift Blade, Chen Qi's Rift Slash power had risen to another level, approaching the Ice Witch's time-stopping ability.
Amid the howling gale, one after another crimson blade edge halted upon the Titan Giant Sea God's chest!
The Sea God had already sensed it—she must stop Yisha.
The energy released by the relic eye in Yisha's hand could disrupt her perfect state!
"Cease!! You insignificant insect!!!"
The Sea God roared loudly.
Possessing consciousness and immense pride, the Sea God could only endure the humiliation of letting Chen Qi ravage her body.
When the one thousand and first slash was executed, Chen Qi leaped into the air.
Imitating the Ice Witch's posture, he snapped his fingers.
Time began flowing once more!Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Sounds like a hail of bullets rang out as crimson blade energy slashed out repeatedly, eliciting countless bone-cracking noises upon the Sea God's chest!
Amid the crackling sounds, the Blood-Eye Core on the Sea God's chest gushed with massive amounts of blood—
And simultaneously, the Sea God couldn't help but let out a groan of agony.
"Aaaaaah—"
Amid the Sea God's wails, Chen Qi seized the moment to leap down from the air, landing atop the scalding head of the Blackship Sea Dragon, steadying himself—
Crackle! Pop!
Chen Qi gritted his teeth, his body emitting unprecedented bone-splitting sounds.
"Black Hunter, this is just too strong..."
Haige gazed at Chen Qi atop the Coastal Apex Predator, unable to conceal a trace of envy in his eyes.
In his mind, the Black Hunter was incredibly powerful, a supernova of his era.
And currently, it seemed he was the strongest supernova.
However, the Emperor Sea God was an existence he had revered since childhood, like the sky and earth themselves.
In his understanding, the Sea God was sacred and inviolable.
Contrary to his expectations, the Black Hunter could actually engage the Sea God in combat.
But... Haige let out a long sigh.
Reaching this extent was already the Black Hunter's limit.
The Black Hunter was ultimately a hunter, while the Sea God was the new deity about to rule these seas.
Hunters cannot hunt gods.
This was an unwinnable battle.
Yet despite this, Haige and the members of the Sea God Pirates found their gazes irresistibly drawn to Chen Qi in the air.
He's about to shatter... Fen gently bit her cold lips.
Crack! Crack!
Chen Qi's Hunter's Garb was long soaked in murky blood.
Next, I still need to buy Yisha some more time... Chen Qi gritted his teeth, attempting to grip his blade tightly.
However, with even slight exertion, an ant-biting pain shot through his wrist.
"I..."
Chen Qi lowered his head, looking at his constantly trembling right hand.
What happened?
Chen Qi slowed his breathing, sensing the energy within his body.
The Rift Blade's Spatial Collapse was essentially equivalent to a Release.
And he had already used several Releases consecutively.
Normally, a legend could use at most two Releases in succession.
Relying on Fen's potions and her life force, he could use multiple Releases despite having a fourth-tier body.
However, while spiritual energy could be replenished, the physical body ultimately had its limits.
The Crimson Form was already a Release that overdrafted the body, combined with multiple other Releases...
Chen Qi bit his lip.
The Sea God, as a World Boss, far exceeded the limits of fourth-tier combat power.
His body at this moment was like a glass bottle battered hundreds of times from inside and out, on the verge of shattering.
His body was also like the battle-worn Flesh Cleaver Bone Breaker in his hand—
He had experienced too many battles in a short time.
Chen Qi half-crouched, plunging the scorching rusty blade into the gaps between the Blackship Sea Dragon's scales, struggling to maintain his stance—
A severe sense of powerlessness washed over him.
Amid the crimson energy waves, he lowered his head, looking at the anxious Yisha.
Faster, faster, even faster... Yisha gripped the dragon's eye in her hand, continuously shouting.
The spiritual energy frequency emitted by the dragon's eye was steadily approaching the Sea God's spiritual energy field.
"It hurts so much—"
The Sea God spat out a mouthful of thick blood.
Now, she could endure no longer, and moreover, she had to stop Yisha—
However, the injury to her heart core slowed her bodily movements.
Yet even slowed, she remained immensely powerful!
This was merely some slight stinging pain!
In this world, no fourth-tier could possibly defeat her current perfect state!
She raised her head high, a look of unprecedented contempt flashing in her eyes:
"Titan's Hand!"
This time, the target was no longer the Black Hunter, but Yisha!
Yisha looked up, once again recalling the fear instilled by colossal beasts.
Beside Yisha, intense storms arose, trapping her firmly.
Boom!
Within the Sublimation Land, a pure white giant hand pierced through layers of air, pressing down toward Yisha and the others.
The members of the Sea God Pirates widened their eyes.
"Sea God! We're still here!"
The Archbishop's eyes also flashed with surprise:
"Sea God! We are your devout followers! The founding elders who established the Sea God Pirates with you..."
"Sea God! You promised we were your most beloved..."
The Sea God Pirates panicked.
The Sea God actually intended to crush them along with Yisha.
No, more accurately, the current Sea God simply didn't care about their insignificant lives.
The Sea God in this state had long lost her rationality.
"Madwoman..."
Chen Qi gritted his teeth, manipulating qi force to forcibly press his broken finger bones back into place.
Then, he commanded the Coastal Apex Predator, adjusting its dragon head.
However, within a short time, the Coastal Apex Predator couldn't use a second Dragon Furnace Cannon... Chen Qi prepared to draw his blade, forcing out another slash.
And just then, a faint fox cry came from behind Chen Qi:
"Human, are we going to die?"
The little golden flower fox hiding within the Coastal Apex Predator's scales peeked out its small head.
As a young magical beast, it possessed spiritual intuition far surpassing humans'.
When the Sea God revealed her perfect form, it had hidden away.
Like a little rabbit seeing the jungle's mighty lion, all they could do was hide desperately in dark crevices, suppressing their breath, praying not to be discovered.
The little golden flower fox hid behind Chen Qi's backside.
For some reason, it always felt that following Chen Qi provided more sense of security than staying behind Yisha.
"Little golden flower fox..."
Chen Qi turned to look at the pitiful little golden flower fox.
As Yisha's magical beast, it should possess moves comparable to the Coastal Apex Predator.
Chen Qi lightly tapped the scorching hilt, pointing toward the descending giant hand:
"Little golden flower fox, use your strongest attack! Target that hand..."
You're not my master... The little golden flower fox blinked, then raised its fluffy tail, gathering all its power into a single point.
All its fur stood on end, converging lightning—
Golden Flower Fox Cannon!
A dazzling golden pillar struck the pure white giant hand.
Simultaneously, Yisha summoned her other magical beasts, preparing to cover her final move.
Fen used Earth Vine, while other Sea God Pirates members also fully utilized their own attack spells, resisting the giant hand descending from the sky—
The Sea God remained expressionless.
Now, she was a Saint who had activated her domain, a proud Titan!
How could ants shake an elephant, how could humans challenge a Titan!
"Foolish actions—"
The Sea God's giant hand continued pressing down.
This power gathered from her Titan Body was far beyond their ability to withstand!
Boom! Boom!
"Ah—"
The ground beneath everyone's feet suddenly cracked, splitting open with fissures.
Boom!
Those with insufficient spiritual energy even had their thighs snap, blood spurting out.
"Farewell, Princess of the Canary family, I anticipate your family's condemnation—"
The Sea God laughed maniacally.
Her power was superior.
Yet, in an instant, the Sea God's heart suddenly leaped violently!
Countless blood vessels bulged continuously on her arm—
Amid the energy waves, Yisha raised her head, an unprecedented pride flashing in her eyes:
"Arrogant outsider, pay the price for your hubris, Ten Thousand Flowers Blood Release Technique!"
When the Kraken fled, every part of its flesh had been infused with her eldest brother's floral aspect power.
This was why she dared to face the Kraken alone!
Once this power was activated, the Kraken's body would rapidly grow endless flesh buds, eventually rotting to death—
In the deep sea, spiritual energy transmission was affected.
But in the Sublimation Land, the relic's power had penetrated the air, resonating with every bit of floral aspect spiritual energy within that flesh.
Yisha crushed the relic in her hand:
"Lowly deep-sea creature, after death, regret today's transgression!"
"!!!"
Everyone widened their eyes, staring dumbfounded at the scene.
Finally completed... Chen Qi breathed a sigh of relief, looking up at the power from Yisha's relic.
They saw unprecedented fear appear in the Sea God's eyes.
A new flesh bud grew from her eyeball.
She had been too late, just one step too late.
"No—"
In merely a breath's time, massive amounts of flesh buds broke through the Sea God's perfect Cup Release body, growing continuously.
By the second second, her enormous body had already grown billions of flesh buds, transforming into a sea of bloody flesh bud flowers.
And by the third second, these flesh bud roots pulled at the flesh, beginning to bloom—
The Canary Saint's secret technique, Ten Thousand Flowers Release Technique... Chen Qi swallowed hard.
This move could be considered one of the Canary family's most powerful techniques.
It was the materialization of floral aspect power!
Crack! Crack!
The Sea God's Titan Body suddenly disintegrated, her entire body instantly ulcerating, appearing like shattered glass with irreparable damage.
Even within the Evolution of Life domain, this damage exceeded her imagination.
This was the divine punishment from one of the Goldenfinch Kingdom's strongest families!
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
Tears streamed from the Sea God's eyes as she let out low, pained roars.
Now, she had no regard for elegance, beginning to curse wildly.
Boom!
She kept pulling at herself, yet under the flower's power, she couldn't maintain her form, her massive body suddenly collapsing—
"Everyone, create distance!!! The Titan is falling!"
Chen Qi shouted loudly.
Everyone looked up, scattering like wild beasts, watching while rapidly fleeing.
Like a heavy curtain pressing down, the enormous body crashed onto the Sublimation Land, stirring up clouds of dust—
And perhaps out of hatred for the Black Hunter, or perhaps out of love—
Finally, the Sea God leveraged her mountain-like pillar legs, choosing to fall toward Chen Qi's direction.
Her mind was filled with Chen Qi's face!
She's got me on her mind... Chen Qi's pupils contracted.
Black Hunter, I won't let you go... the Sea God said as her final words.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three-hundred-meter-scale body came crashing down heavily.
The abyssal land fractured, the Sublimation Land's meticulously arranged splendid rituals completely destroyed.
The Sea God Pirates' secret base hidden for centuries had instantly become massive ruins in that moment.
The enormous Titan Body destroyed everything in sight.
"..."
Wailing pleas for help were buried beneath the collapsing roar.
Uncertain how much time had passed...
In the very center of the Sublimation Land, Fen, covered in blood, used Queen Vines to lift the boulder pressing on her spine, emerging from the ruins' dust.
"Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough!"
Fen couldn't stop coughing.
During this battle, her spine had fractured repeatedly, ribs piercing her lungs.
However, Fen knew that now, she must endure, endure that burning pain.
She had more important tasks—confirming the Sea God's fate, and the safety of Chen Qi, Yisha, and others.
If she couldn't fulfill combat duties as planned, then she must, must fulfill medical duties.
As a battlefield doctor, before confirming these matters, she couldn't engage in any unnecessary movement.
"Qi, Yisha, water spirits..."
Fen raised her head, calling out everyone's names.
Earlier, the Sea God Pirates members, along with Yisha and the water spirits, had all suffered the impact of the Titan's fall!
The Sea God's massive body lay on the ground like a hill, lying before them.
Yisha sat beside a broken pillar, eyes vacant, hands trembling.
Essentially, the technique she had just used leveraged her eldest brother's embedded floral aspect power and the relic's energy—she only needed minimal spiritual energy to activate it.
But even this 'minimal' spiritual energy had completely drained her.
Yisha is safe... Fen breathed a sigh of relief, directing Water Spirit No. 2 to pry open Yisha's mouth and pour healing potion down her throat—
Fen continued forward.
Thick toxic dust covered everything.
This area should be the Sea God's waist region.
Based on the Sea God's falling posture earlier, Chen Qi and the Coastal Apex Predator should be near the Sea God's head!
"Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough—"
Fen pressed on her waist wound, dragging heavy steps forward—
Step by step—
Before confirming Chen Qi's safety, cannot, cannot collapse, I must not collapse... Fen, with fading consciousness, repeatedly chanted.
Must not collapse!
Dust grit pierced into her eyeballs.
Her right eye had begun experiencing intermittent blindness.
Uncertain how much time had passed, Fen finally passed through the thick smoke, reaching the Sea God's head—
"Qi..."
Fen called out again, but her voice had become as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
"Qi, is that the Black Hunter's name?"
An arrogant female voice made the barely-conscious Fen involuntarily look up.
Fen's gaze pierced through layers of smoke, then her eyes widened.
Thud!
Her staff slipped from her hand, falling lightly onto the cracked ground.
No...
Fen froze.
Amid the billowing dust, a massive head rose high like a deity, gazing down upon the ruins before it.
The Sea God wasn't dead yet!
Saints are not to be provoked by fourth-tier legends!
The final victor remained the Sea God!
Her torso didn't move, but her head and one hand could still function.
Yet more despairing than this was the person in the Sea God's bloodied palm—
The weakened Chen Qi resembled a small doll, gripped tightly in that enormous hand.
Seeing the despair in Fen's eyes, the Sea God faintly understood something, smiling slightly.
She loved taking others' possessions, loved the look in this little witch's eyes, loved it immensely!
Her lips curled up, speaking with extreme excitement:
"Witch, do you love him?
But unfortunately, he's mine now, all mine!"
Then, amid Fen's powerless hoarse cries, the Sea God violently smashed the Chen Qi doll in her hand against the ground!
