Chapter 109 - Might of the Legendary Bloodline
It wasn’t really a surprise that the Mirage Monsters’ Commander came here.
The destruction of a settlement could be quite noisy, and both parties who were fighting on the battlefield had noticed it!
For the Mirage Monsters, their biggest purpose on the trip wasn’t to eliminate the Sludge Monsters but for the settlement core that Ji Ye was holding.
Therefore, the Mirage Monsters’ Commander must’ve come here at whatever costs, even the risk of being injured, to stop Ji Ye from leaving. It even launched a mental attack and a round plate attack simultaneously!
Unfortunately, it had run into Ji Ye, and neither of the two attacks worked.
Well, in fact, they worked in some way, because Ji Ye had at least been held back.
On the other hand, the soldiers of the Twin Dragon Mount were in a crisis too.
Some of them had suffered similar mental attacks, and their resistance was much lower than Ji Ye’s.
At this moment, two of the soldiers were holding their weapons and slashing crazily in panic.
Their partners who were too close to them were even injured by them!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Just like the attacks that Ji Ye suffered just now, the two round plates, which were smaller than the one knocked away by the Black Serpent Sword but still more than one meter in diameter, suddenly emerged in the water.
Pew! Pew!
It swirled by and cut two soldiers of the Twin Dragon Mount into halves. Immediately, the water was filled with the redness of human blood!
“There’s another two!”
Even Ji Ye was more or less shocked by the situation.
That was because attacking remotely with mental power fell in the category of Extraordinary power.
At least, in the current phase, such a way of attack, just like a flying sword, had many restrictions.
For example, Chu Yin and Nie Xiaoqian’s music, when performed in a large area, could only cause certain psychological effects at best but couldn’t create any illusions. Only if it was targeted at individuals could it enchant people whose divine sense was Rank-4 like him.
Plus the two round plates that were more than one meter in diameter, all the evidence suggested that not just one but three Extraordinary warriors had been sent here!
The Mirage Monsters, whose settlement was only Rank-1, had more than three Extraordinary warriors?
But on second thought, it didn’t seem too strange!
The human settlement was on a resourceful mountain, but the Twin Dragon Mount wasn’t too big anyway.
What about the Mirage Monsters?
It was difficult for them to get on the land as an aquatic species, but there were definitely more monsters and resources in the ocean than on the continent.
When they got abundant experience and spoils, it was easier for the Mirage Monsters to become Extraordinary than it was for the groups on the continent.
Pew! Pew! Pew!
Faced with two Extraordinary aliens, the situation wasn’t promising for the soldiers of the Twin Dragon Mount.
Because the Extraordinary Mirage Monsters were capable of launching mental attacks, the soldiers would lose sight of the enemy when approaching them, while the enemy’s sharp-edged round plates swirled in the water and reaped the lives of multiple soldiers in the blink of an eye!
“This is troublesome!”
Ji Ye thought quickly.
He charged at one of the Extraordinary Mirage Monsters, hoping to finish off one of them first!
Shua! Shua! Shua!
However, the moment he took action, the environment around him suddenly changed.
In the water around him, dozens of Mirage Monsters appeared and surrounded him. Then, they launched a hundred sharp-edged round plates that swirled at a high speed in the water at him, blocking all his ways of escape in a deadly fashion!
Was it teleportation?
It was clearly impossible in the current phase!
Was it a mental attack?
No, because Ji Ye didn’t feel attacked at all.
“Are they the illusions that the Mirage Monster Commander created? How can it create so many?”
Ji Ye quickly realized what they were.
Obviously, after realizing that mental attacks didn’t work on him, the Mirage Monster changed its way of attack and created a hundred illusionary Mirage Monsters!
Also, those Mirage Monsters were so vivid that even Ji Ye could barely see any flaw with his keen eyesight.
In such a case, as long as the real Mirage Monsters hid among the fake ones and attacked together with them, it would be easy for them to kill anyone they surrounded!
“It seems that I have to turn to the last resort now. I didn’t expect that I would be forced to use it after it was just fused.”
Ji Ye wasn’t panicking in such a situation.
He closed his eyes so that his judgment wouldn’t be affected by what he saw!
Sharp-edged round plates stormed through his body but didn’t cause any damage.
Pa!
However, the Extraordinary Mirage Monster whom Ji Ye had planned to kill first suddenly abandoned the soldiers and secretly darted its sharp-edged round plate at Ji Ye’s neck like a lethal viper amidst countless fake ones!
Pa!
Right when the sharp-edged round plate was about to hit its target, Ji Ye raised one of his hands quickly.
Covered in a layer of hazy yellow light, his hand gripped the round plate, ignoring the sharpness of its edge.
Boom!
Next, the most daunting aura suddenly soared from Ji Ye.
All the seawater around him seemed to be seething in excitement or trembling in fear because of a certain special power.
In the next moment, the sharp-edged round plate more than one meter in diameter was grabbed by Ji Ye and pushed back easily.
Hum!
His movement seemed easy, but after the sharp-edged round plate was pushed back, it swirled at an unreasonably high speed.
The seawater, which should’ve been an obstacle, didn’t slow down the round plate at all but only made it faster and more powerful after it was darted out!
In the blink of an eye, the sharp-edged round plate had been thrown back to the Extraordinary Mirage Monster!
Pew!
Naturally, because of the angle and the force, the Extraordinary Mirage Monster failed to accept the round plate that Ji Ye had kindly returned. Instead, its whole body, along with its shell, was cut into halves by the momentum that was utterly irresistible.
Since it didn’t have the Sludge Monsters’ ability of self-recovery, it was instantly killed even though it was an Extraordinary life!
Hum!
At the same time when he killed the Mirage Monster, Ji Ye’s Black Serpent Sword was boosted to the maximal speed by an explosive force toward another Extraordinary Mirage Monster that was fighting the soldiers.
This second Mirage Monster reacted fast enough. Noticing its partner’s death, it hurriedly launched its sharp-edged round plate to the Black Serpent Sword, hoping to stop it halfway.
Whoosh!
However, the Black Serpent Sword, which was as fast as lightning, simply circumvented the sharp-edged round plate like a real serpent.
It stabbed through the fresh and succulent meat of the Mirage Monster without any trouble. Then, the extraordinary power on the sword burst out, absorbing and drying the second Extraordinary Mirage Monster!
As a result, only one of the three Extraordinary Mirage Monsters was left after the blink of an eye.
Ji Ye’s combat ability had been increased to such a point where he killed the Extraordinary enemies as if they were fish only because he had chosen to burn the Flood Dragon Blood.
Also, it was because Ji Ye had spent a thousand EXP points on exercising after the successful fusion. He had completely grasped the power!
However, he didn’t really have much Flood Dragon Blood yet, and he had spent most of it on this burning.
It wouldn’t be worth it if he only killed two Extraordinary Mirage Monsters who weren’t rated as a Commander.
Pa!
Therefore, Ji Ye, who was still in the status of a rampage, turned his head to the Mirage Monster Commander who was controlling the massive illusion!
Splash!
The illusion was suddenly gone.
Clearly, maintaining such a massive illusion had harsh requirements. The Mirage Monsters’ Commander-level hero couldn’t attack him while he powered the illusion.
Now that its two Extraordinary-level partners were executed in the blink of an eye, the Mirage Monster Commander, who was by no means stupid, didn’t feel very good!
It quickly copied itself and created two identical clones.
The two Mirage Monsters who looked exactly the same ran off into two different directions!
Obviously, the Mirage Monsters did have great wisdom.
Even if they were running, they knew that they could confuse the enemy with a clone.
“You want to flee? Can you really?”
When the illusion was gone, Ji Ye naturally tracked it down with water currents.
His body where the Flood Dragon Blood was burning moved, and the water currents behind him exploded and gave him a powerful boost, allowing him to catch the enemy on the left side.
Hum!
After that, he punched the enemy without any hesitation.
Boom!
Devastating cracks instantly appeared on the shell of the Mirage Monster Commander who had just been punched. A huge hole even appeared on the point of impact. The shell almost fell into pieces.
Obviously, Ji Ye had such great senses in the water when the blood was being burnt that he found the Mirage Monster Commander’s real self easily and ignored the fake one!
Pa!
However, as the dominator of the sea, the Mirage Monsters did have many treasures.
The Mirage Monster Commander that was nearly blown up by the punch spat out a colorful bubble at the critical moment, which enshrouded itself and blocked Ji Ye’s second punch!
Boom!
The powerful punch knocked the colorful bubble a dozen meters away.
It crashed into the rocks in the water and then rolled into the mud!
However, the colorful bubble was so tensile that although it trembled drastically on the surface, it seemed to have blocked the attack by transferring most of the force into the water.
“You can block my fist, but can you block my sword?”
Ji Ye was wearing a villain’s smile on his face.
Hum!
He extended his hand, and the Black Serpent Sword, after drying the second Extraordinary Mirage Monster, was remotely attracted back to his hand. Then, he held the sword with both hands and slashed at the colorful bubble with all his strength!
“Hiss!”
The Black Serpent Sword was even more spiritual when the Flood Dragon Blood was burnt, to the point that a phantom snake vaguely emerged in the water and hissed. Like the Perfect Tiger Soul Saber that Wu Song wielded, it unleashed all the extraordinary power it had!
The point of the sword and the fangs of the snake hit the colorful bubble simultaneously.
Boom!
The colorful bubble trembled violently, but it could not stand the multiple attacks and broke apart in the end!
However, a streak of white light dashed out of the broken bubble and quickly fled away. Obviously, the Mirage Monster Commander was very experienced in battles and decided to abandon its shell to escape at the last moment.
The streak of white light seemed to be a treasure too. It took the monster away very fast.
“You really think you can escape?”
But Ji Ye reacted even faster. His Black Serpent Sword darted out again.
Enhanced by the water currents that were controlled with the burning Flood Dragon Blood, the sword caught up with the white light at a high speed and penetrated it!
Then, in the middle of the water currents, it returned with the Mirage Monster which had no shells anymore but appeared as a heap of meat.
Boom!
After that, Ji Ye simply punched and reduced the struggling Mirage Monster Commander into smithereens.
Splash!
Then, several items in the forms of spoils appeared in the water.
Among them, a translucent ball the size of an egg was the most eye-catching one of all.
That was because not only did the ball emit silver light from the white color on the surface, but it also projected an illusion of pavilions and dancing dragons into the seawater after it appeared!
