"It’s really dark here."
Black Cocoon placed their hands on their hips, turning their head to look around while speaking softly.
"Yaguba, I’ll see if I can share the ’Blessing of the King’ with you, so at least you can move for a while."
Cezar said this while pulling out a small shark from his pocket. The little shark lay still in his palm, curled up limply as if it were dead.
The neurotoxin’s effects aren’t limited to humans.
Cezar took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, brought his hands together, and held Yaguba in his palms. A faint light appeared in his palms.
Qiao looked up at the towering Tower of Babel, silently waiting for Cezar and Black Cocoon to co out from inside.
Yet, after a long ti, there was still no reaction.
As if realizing he had been mocked, he raised his right hand, covered in deep red bones, and casually tore a cross-shaped hole into the edge of the giant tower.
"Boom!!!"
Debris flew everywhere, and the tower wall appeared weaker than tofu before his claws, being effortlessly punctured like paper, a cloud of dust spreading outward.
"Are you playing hide and seek with ?"
The dust had settled. Qiao spoke while raising his eyes to look straight ahead, a sudden astonishnt flashing in his eyes.
In that mont, a giant shark suddenly burst out from the inside of the tower. The shark’s volu continued to expand, growing directly upwards.
Finally, it transford into a majestic three hundred ter long colossal being, plumting from the sky towards Qiao’s body.
Qiao frowned, looking up at the descending giant Shark, the overwhelming shadow engulfing him, his dark golden eyes shining brightly in the darkness.
The next mont, he suddenly raised his right hand, covered in deep red light, and pressed his right palm against Yaguba’s belly, creating rippling waves of motion.
Simultaneously, a deep red frenzy swept outward, clearing out everything within hundreds of ters.
Then, a shocking scene unfolded. Qiao held up the three hundred ter long Yaguba with one hand, standing motionlessly under the shadow.
Yaguba, unwilling to concede, wrapped in black tides, furiously pressed down, the imnse pressure nearly caving in the ground beneath Qiao’s feet into a hundred ter deep pit.
Qiao remained expressionless, only slowly lowered his head. The upper and lower hexagonal modular massive wings spread outward, bursting with brilliant golden light in the darkness.
One above and one below, Qiao’s feet sank deeper into the pit, going further down.
Layers of sand sunk downward, and from the edges, new sand filled in again.
It was as if a sandstorm was almost ready to bury them within it.
This was a raw and pure contest of strength. Qiao was rapidly adapting to his evolved body, continuously drawing more power from within to contend with Yaguba and the waterfall-like cascading sand and stones.
The next second, Qiao’s four massive wings expanded to the extre, appearing like an angel cast into Hell in the darkness, supporting the giant above him with his right hand.
His sword-like tail rose high, lifting the previously unused other arm, the deep red left fist struck towards Yaguba’s belly!
"Boom!" Yaguba’s body shot upward, but with surging black tides, it resisted the retreating trend, rotating again and plunging downward.
"Dragon Tail."
Two words flashed in his mind; the tail of the Eternal Abyss Shark suddenly transford, covered in dragon scales, as surging flas spilled out from within, slicing straight down like a giant sword forged from fire.
This was the power Yaguba obtained from absorbing the generational shard "Red Dragon Wales".
Qiao frowned, stomped the ground, shooting upwards from the pit, raising claws to slash at the enormous Dragon Tail, the tail spun in the air, blazing with flas crashing down heavily.
The two collided. Small cracks appeared on the exoskeleton covering Qiao’s arms, yet he easily deflected the Dragon Tail, the deep red light consuming the flas in the air entirely, Yaguba shooting into the night sky like a giant tower in reverse.
Qiao paused slightly, abruptly raising his head. Suddenly, a massive teaching ruler descended from the sky, taking Yaguba’s place, crashing heavily onto Qiao’s head.
"Su Wei?" Qiao raised his head in a daze, looking at the teaching ruler, crossing his arms in defense.
He didn’t see Su Wei’s figure, only caught sight of the teaching ruler Su Wei stepped on above the night moon. The teaching ruler descended from two thousand ters high, level with the clouds, engulfed with atmosphere and gravity, irresistibly crashing down.
Qiao’s body descended again, though his arm’s exoskeleton remained unbreakable, showing no signs of fracture.
"You broke the promise." Qiao raised his head, his face twisted, growling at the teaching ruler, "Su Wei... you broke our promise!"
Just as he blasted the teaching ruler away, flapped his wings, intending to rise from the pit, he suddenly saw a sun at the top of the pit.
Indeed, it was clearly midnight, yet he saw a blazing sun, shedding sunlit flas that illuminated the entire hundreds ter deep pit, a red sun reflecting in Qiao’s pupils.
No matter who a person is, what they need most, the most irreplaceable sustenance, will naturally and inevitably beco their weakness too.
