Chapter 666: Top-Grade Fight
The Apocalyptic Beast known as the Demonic Mountain was not just a giant with a body that was nearly one hundred meters long, had two heads, three tails, superstrength, and could fire poisonous smoke.
The vitality magnetic fields of Deity Realm superhumans could reach hundreds of meters and even one thousand meters to influence other creatures’ vitality magnetic fields. It could even affect the magnetic field of the planet and allow them to form domains where they could do whatever they wanted inside.
Apocalyptic Beasts had similar abilities. Theirs were like the upgraded version of the Tyrant Mammoth’s Rampaging War Song.
However, what the Demonic Mountain could control was not mammals, but plants and insects that live off plants.
Apparently, the Demonic Mountain could largely strengthen plant cells so that the growth speed of plants could increase by one hundred times and turn into predatory plants that could move at will, making them look like things such as blood-sucking vines, man-eating flowers, or large nepenthes.
More importantly, the insects that lived off the plants and were harmless would also become bloodthirsty and brutal because of the stimulation from the Demonic Mountain.
When thousands of insects were stimulated by the Demonic Mountain, they could really turn into tornadoes that could destroy everything, including large monsters like Demonic Halberd Pigs and Iron Armored Rhinoceroses. They would end up as skeletons by the time the insects were done.
In other words, no matter where the Demonic Mountain went, it could turn an originally peaceful mountain into a bloodthirsty, hellish realm that was literally a mountain infested by demons!
Meng Chao remembered that the human army suffered major losses because of the Demonic Mountain.
At that time, the humans did not know the true face of the Demonic Mountain.
A steel battalion with hundreds of six-legged runic symbol fighting vehicles went through the valley where the Demonic Mountain lurked, and in an instant, the valley became alive. The plants stretched their monstrous tentacles, the vines became vipers that bound the humans’ legs and fighting vehicles’ machine legs. The insects that crept everywhere crawled through the gaps between the fighting vehicles and battle armor and into the soldiers’ bodies, then eating the humans’ organs until they were completely empty inside.
The Demonic Mountain did not even need to attack on its own. Just like that, it was able to reduce a battalion with thousands of people into nothing.
That was the biggest loss that the humans suffered during the later stage of the Monster War in Meng Chao’s previous life.
The Demonic Mountain before him right now was clearly much weaker compared to what he remembered of his previous life.
Its vitality magnetic field could only cover hundreds of meters.
Within the circular area of hundreds of meters, not all the plants and insects were under control, stimulated, and strengthened. Only hundreds of vines stretched their tips out like hungry vipers.
Their tips opened like chrysanthemums and hissed.
Since Dragon City had a sufficient amount of ammunition in his current life, for the time being, there was no need for Dragon City to send the mechanized battalion into the mountain, and no one entered the Demonic Mountain’s trap.
And it would not be enough for the Demonic Mountain to rely solely on the puppet army made of vines and insects to face off a Deity Realm superhuman like Zong Yue.
The Demonic Mountain was forced to crawl out from the underground and personally face the Black Tortoise, the man with the greatest defense in Dragon City!
“Meng Chao!”
Hundreds of meters away from the center of the valley was a flat ground that jutted out of the mountainside. Blade Dancer Gu Jianbo was there, and he was waving at Meng Chao.
Meng Chao put away the non-motorized gliders’ wings, did a flip in the air, and landed accurately on the cliff.
He noticed that his tutor was not the only one there. His tutoress, Griffin Li Yingzi was there too, along with the other tutors in Agricultural University’s martial arts course.
Meng Chao quickly went to greet these tutors.
His cultivation realm and force of power were unlike before. With Gu Jianbo serving as his middleman, he managed to do business with quite a number of the tutors, and the tutors naturally did not treat him like a normal student. They greeted him in a friendly manner and asked him about the war situation at Burning Island and the lair. They also asked him whether he was injured.
Meng Chao answered the questions one by one.
Then, he heard thunderous roars from the center of the valley. It was as if two celestial armies had gathered together thousands of soldiers to engage each other in an intense battle.
But the tutors did not move.
Unable to stop himself, Meng Chao asked, “Should we go and help?”
Black Tortoise Zong Yue was in the same generation as Saber Jin Wanhao.
Even though he had reached Deity Realm, he was old, and he was currently fighting against an Apocalyptic Beast alone. What if something happened to him? Wouldn’t that be a loss for Agricultural University and Dragon City?
Meng Chao knew his own strength well. This was a high-end fight between a Deity Realm superhuman and Apocalyptic Beast, and a four-star superhuman like him who had just shrugged the title of an amateur could not hope to join the fight.
However, a number of the tutors had already reached the peak of Heaven Realm, including Griffin Li Yingzi, if they went up to help, at the very least, they could divert the Demonic Mountain’s attention and help Black Tortoise Zong Yue deal the deciding blow.
“Calm down. It’s not time for us to join the fight yet.” Gu Jianbo smiled. “Now, open your eyes wide and learn!”
Since he looked like victory was within their grasp, Meng Chao relaxed a little.
He then placed all his attention on the fight between the Apocalyptic Beast and Deity Realm superhuman.
This was indeed a history fight that Meng Chao had never seen before.
The Demonic Mountain and Black Tortoise were clearly alone, but the spirit gas that gushed out of their bodies covered a circular area of one thousand meters. It was as if two... no, two hundred tidal waves were crashing into each other one after another.
The clash between vitality magnetic fields also caused neverending shockwaves. They were like an endless tornado that blew the plants in the valley to shreds, and they started burning because of the high-speed clash.
Even if Meng Chao was hundreds of meters away from the battlefield and had Blade Dancer Gu Jianbo as well as Griffin Li Yingzi using their spirit energy shield to protect him, he could still sense waves of brutality crashing into him like a cliff that collapsed and turned into a mudslide that weighed thousands of tons.
It hit him so hard that his muscles tensed, and he could not breathe.
He instinctively circulated the Hell’s Blood in his body, and in his mind, he thought about the destruction during the apocalypse. It was only by using the strength of his body and will that he was able to resist this force.
“Hmm?”
Gu Jianbo knew his personal disciple’s strength three months ago.
He thought that after watching for a while, he would be unable to hang on and had to retreat to some place far away.
To make sure that Meng Chao could watch this top-grade fight within close distance, he had even decided to work together with his wife to help Meng Chao resist the shockwaves.
He did not expect that Meng Chao would not only refuse to give up once he decided that he wanted to watch, he even released a killing intent that was even greater than that of the Hell Beasts.
Gu Jianbo gasped in amazement, and he was delighted as well. He slapped Meng Chao’s shoulder and shouted, “Good, boy! Look closely, if you can understand the essence of this battle, you might end up having greater achievements than me in the future!”
Meng Chao grunted and grimaced.
Before he even had the time to complain that his tutor hit him too hard, he heard a deafening explosion ahead of him.
It was Black Tortoise Zong Yue. He had agilely zipped through the gap between the heads of the Demonic Mountain, and like a meteor that tore through the ozone layer, he rammed his body into the Demonic Mountain’s spine.
The Demonic Mountain might have a shell similar to metal on its back, and it was even sturdier than rock, but it could not withstand a full-powered strike from a Deity Realm superhuman.
Cracking sounds rose. The shell on its back immediately cracked, and plum-colored flesh was revealed under the intersecting cracks.
The Demonic Mountain was in pain, and it immediately swung its three tails.
It might be clumsy and slow, but its tails were long and agile. They had dozens of segments in them, and each segment had its own shell and bone blade. They could extend and contract at will, and their attack range could go from dozens of meters to hundreds of meters, as long as the Demonic Mountain adjusted them.
When it flung all of its tails, they immediately formed a net that tried to capture the attacker on its back.
But compared to its nearly one hundred meters tall body, the human fighter was less than two meters long, and it was just too tiny, so it was difficult for it to capture the human easily.
Size was the humans’ greatest advantage when fighting against monsters.
Since monsters did not know how to cultivate, their strength came from inheriting their genes from their predecessors, their talent from their species, and the simple and crude process of elimination in nature.
Even if the Apocalyptic Beasts had the power to destroy the world, they usually did not know how to minimize this power.
The Apocalyptic Beasts could be imagined as nuclear reactors, but they were nuclear reactors without the technology to downsize or minimize their power.
To operate and cool down these nuclear reactions, they must have huge bodies that were dozens of meters or even hundreds of meters tall, because that was the only way they could support the rampaging spirit energy in them.
If the Apocalyptic Beasts shrank to within ten meters, the maximum output from their mitochondria alone would be enough to easily make these Apocalyptic Beasts combust or explode.
This was what made the Supernatural Entities terrifying.
Based on what Meng Chao remembered, while they were at the peak of their condition, the Supernatural Entities could steadily control the Apocalyptic Beast-like rampaging power in them, allowing them to have bodies that were within ten meters tall. In fact, some of them had bodies that were about the same size as humans.
This made it ridiculously easy for them to infiltrate human cities and wreak havoc in the core of Dragon City.
But the Demonic Mountain in front of him clearly did not have that sort of skill.
Its huge body led to its slow speed.
During attacks to seize their city, their bodies allowed them to break through the human defense lines and destroy the humans’ city.
However, when it faced a Deity Realm superhuman who was as agile as Black Tortoise Zong Yue, it suffered a major loss.
Zong Yue flew at maximum speed and attacked the gaps of the Demonic Mountain’s shell repeatedly, causing the Demonic Shell to have blood and flesh fly everywhere like a volcano eruption.
Meanwhile, even if the Demonic Mountain kept swinging its tail repeatedly, it was never able to capture Zong Yue.
As for the powerful wind stirred up by its tails and the puppet army formed by bloodthirsty insects, this was not a problem to a Deity Realm superhuman with top-class defenses like Black Tortoise Zong Yue.
Speaking of which, the Demonic Mountain’s body was dozens of times sturdier than the Tyrant Mammoth, but with just a light tap from Black Tortoise Zong Yue, he was able to tear through the shell on its back and cause blood to fly. Yet despite the fact that it was now a bloody mess, the Demonic Mountain’s core was far from being damaged.
Meng Chao felt anxious.
To him, Black Tortoise Zong Yue and the Demonic Mountain were both entities with defenses far greater than their offensive powers.
Both sides were like people with sturdy shields in their hands but were poking randomly at each other with rapiers. Even if Zong Yue had the upper hand, he was far from turning his advantage into victory.
If they continued to be in a stalemate, problems might arise because of how long the battle would be, and new variables would also show up.
But there was a mysterious smile on his tutor’s face.
“Careful, it’s coming!” Gu Jianbo told Meng Chao.
His gaze was fixed on the sky in the southwest direction.
The sky there was red, and the clouds were surging as if it was a sea of blood that was boiling.
