Ye Zhongming dodged an attack from the level nine sli but failed to account for several level-eight ones. Struck by the viscous yet imnsely powerful mud clumps, his body briefly lost balance, sending him sliding far across the swamp.
A tingling numbness spread through him but quickly faded.
Looking down, he saw that his armor was damaged in multiple places, allowing the toxic mud to make contact with his skin.
Without overthinking it—his physical constitution made such toxicity negligible—he rolled with the montum, evading subsequent attacks, and continued charging toward the level nine sli.
Not only did Ye Zhongming know that getting close to the level nine sli would secure victory, but the sli monster itself was also aware. Once this human closed the distance, it would an its demise. Thus, the mont Ye Zhongming entered a 500-ter radius, it began consciously summoning its subordinates for assistance.
Originally, the battlefield had revolved around the Cloud Peak forces, with sli monsters encircling and attacking the humans. Even after the Cloud Peak mbers dispersed their assaults, the focal point had scattered but never concentrated on a single individual.
Until now.
Ye Zhongming beca the sole target worthy of attack in the eyes of all the sli. Despite the Cloud Peak’s near-thousand-strong force slaughtering them, the sli showed no fear, all rushing toward Ye Zhongming. The mont the King of Cloud Peak entered their range, they would unleash their attacks on him.
The Cloud Peak fighters quickly noticed this shift and pursued, hacking and slashing at the sli monsters. But the sheer number of enemies made it impossible to eliminate them all in a short ti, no matter how fiercely they fought.
No matter how powerful Ye Zhongming was, he couldn’t withstand the combined assault of so many monsters.
The Cloud Peak warriors grew frantic, unleashing their most devastating techniques.
Though the slis’ numbers dwindled rapidly, the attacks on Ye Zhongming couldn’t be imdiately halted.
As he charged forward, Ye Zhongming relied on speed to evade, resorting to the teleportation skill from his spatial equipnt when dodging beca impossible. By the ti he closed to within 300 ters of the level nine sli, all his teleportation skills had entered cooldown.
During this ti, he had even stopped bothering to evade attacks from level-five or six sli.
After advancing another 30 ters, Ye Zhongming suddenly sensed sothing amiss.
The level nine monster hadn’t attacked for a long while. Based on its earlier frequency, it should have struck about two minutes ago.
While continuing to dodge, Ye Zhongming glanced at his primary foe and saw that the sli monster was… eating.
Its al? The smaller sli monsters around it.
A foreboding feeling surged within him. Ye Zhongming knew this behavior ant the level nine creature was either enhancing its strength or preparing a special attack.
Sure enough, after devouring an unknown number of its kin, the level nine sli’s body swelled considerably. It bloated grotesquely before spewing a torrent of mud straight at Ye Zhongming.
Between it and Ye Zhongming stood many other sli monsters. The attack was a horizontal spray, and the first victims were its own kind. The most update n0vels are published on novelFirｅ
Against the assault of their king, the lesser sli monsters stood no chance—instantly annihilated. So of the mud dissipated, but the remainder hurtled toward Ye Zhongming with terrifying speed.
Faced with the overwhelming area of effect, Ye Zhongming knew evasion was impossible. Instead, he pulled out the Staff of Nature, slotting in a top-grade water-elent gem to summon Water Bottle Protection, hoping the energy shield would block the attack.
Countless mud projectiles slamd into the barrier. The incredibly resilient shield dimd rapidly, signaling its impending collapse.
The level nine creature’s mud spray lasted at least ten seconds. The lesser sli monsters had endured only a second of it, while Water Bottle Protection held for a re three seconds before shattering.
Ye Zhongming had no ti to replace the gem in the Staff of Nature. He could only dodge as best he could while activating his shield’s defensive ability to protect himself.
His speed was exceptional, and he had begun moving sideways even before Water Bottle Protection failed. For an evolved, this timing should have been sufficient.
Yet, despite his efforts, the sheer breadth and speed of the mud spray ant so of it still grazed him.
His body was sent flying as if struck by a massive hamr.
Bright, startling streaks of crimson marked the trajectory of his flight.
Instances where the King of Cloud Peak was injured were rare, and bleeding even rarer. This level nine creature’s attack was horrifyingly potent.
After unleashing this devastating strike, the level nine sli monster was visibly drained. It glanced in Ye Zhongming’s direction before slowly retreating, its kin forming a protective circle around it.
