Chapter 358: The Exploded Mutant
"boom!"
When the roar sounded, shock waves also burst out from the two figures, one big and one small, that suddenly collided, and attacked the surroundings.
“Bang bang bang bang bang!”
Countless stone pillars, rocks, and stalactite-like spikes exploded under the impact of the storm-like shock wave, turning into debris all over the sky and flying in all directions.
The ground broke into pieces, becoming like a spider web.
The territory where the giant phantom demon was located also shook violently and collapsed several meters out of thin air.
"Mingling——!"
The mermaid girl continued to advance with long and pleasant chants and waves all over the sky, intending to break through the territory guarded by the giant phantom demon.
"roar--!"
The giant phantom demon was naturally furious. He opened his huge rocky hand and slammed towards Xiao Haier with a sharp sonic boom.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" For a moment, deafening roars continued to sound, marking the beginning of a sudden and fierce battle.
The little sea, carrying waves all over the sky, kept attacking the defense line of the giant phantom demon, colliding with the giant phantom demon's waving arms again and again, causing bursts of roars.
The shock waves unfolded layer by layer.
The atmosphere trembled one after another.
The two figures, one big and one small, were engaging in the most direct and extreme collision, and Su Ming, who had dodged nearby, was almost affected and nearly blown away by the storm of shock waves and rubble.
Fortunately, Su Ming had extraordinary spiritual perception, coupled with a super strong physique and the combination of dual professional abilities, which made his body like a willow branch swaying in the wind. After a swaying, he did not retreat but advanced, as if riding the wind, and continued to move forward.
However, when Su Ming saw the giant phantom demon roaring continuously and engaging in an extreme confrontation with Xiao Haier, his pupils still shrank.
"Dangerous mutant!"
That giant phantom demon was actually a dangerous mutant.
"There are actually dangerous mutants on the sixth floor?"
Su Ming was shocked.
Mutants are phantom demons that have failed in the process of evolution and are unable to make any further progress. However, they have also transcended their original life level and are a species of phantom demons that are above their original level.
Although it is the result of failed evolution, being able to reach this stage of evolution is already more rare and powerful than most beings of the same level.
Mutants like those encountered on the first level are just mutants of lower-level phantom demons. They are not as good as higher-level phantom demons, and are not even as dangerous as the lowest level. However, they are far superior to ordinary lower-level phantom demons and can almost rival four-star professionals.
Dangerous mutants are much more terrifying than lower-level phantom mutants.
An ordinary dangerous species, whose strength is roughly between four-star and five-star professionals, stronger than four-star professionals and weaker than five-star professionals.
Only the best among the dangerous species can possess the power to rival that of a five-star professional.
If this dangerous species accumulates enough power to evolve by sucking blood, it will be at the limit of dangerous species, roughly equivalent to a five-star peak professional.
For example, the ghoul was a dangerous species that was about to evolve. It was even stronger than Chi Qian, who was at the peak of the five-star level at the time. As a result, the Tianfeng City officials issued a special mission to defeat it and prevent it from evolving successfully.
The giant phantom demon that was fighting fiercely with Xiao Haier was actually an evolved dangerous species, and it just failed.
If this giant phantom demon evolves successfully, it will become a nightmare species, and its strength will skyrocket to the level between six-star and seven-star professionals. If it continues to suck blood and accumulate strength, it can even reach a level that rivals a seven-star professional.
But it failed, and ultimately made no further progress in its life. It could only remain in the form of a mutant, and could not be compared with the nightmare species.
However, even so, this giant phantom demon has evolved, and even if it fails, it is much stronger than when it was in danger.
The limit of the dangerous species, the ghouls that are only one step away from evolution are equivalent to the top five-star level. So even if this evolved mutant is not as good as the nightmare species and cannot reach the realm between the six-star and seven-star professionals, it is definitely much stronger than the top five-star level.
The giant phantom demon before us, this dangerous mutant, is a powerful being that can rival a six-star professional.
Such a creature actually already exists on the sixth floor of the Midnight Labyrinth. What level of phantom demons will there be on the seventh, eighth, ninth, and even the deepest tenth floors?
"boom!"
When Su Ming was feeling extremely terrified, Xiao Haier had already collided with the giant phantom demon again, and rode the shock wave to fly high into the sky.
"Mi-ling! Mi-ling, mi-ling!"
Unable to break through the giant phantom's defenses, Xiao Haier became anxious and kept shouting loudly, seeming to be very angry.
"roar!"
The giant phantom demon just roared at Xiao Haier in the sky, as if he would not let Xiao Haier go even if he died.
Although Xiao Haier was very angry, he could not do anything to the giant phantom demon.
As a nightmare species that has not yet developed to maturity, Xiao Haier's strength is much weaker than that of ordinary nightmare species. He can only match six-star professionals and cannot reach the lowest limit of nightmare species, that is, the stage where he is stronger than six-star professionals but weaker than seven-star professionals.
On one side are the nightmare species with incomplete power, and on the other side are mutants that failed to evolve into nightmare species but are still far superior to dangerous species. The power of both sides is strangely at the same level, and neither can do anything to the other.
Xiao Haier tried to stir up a blizzard and blast down a whirlpool of water. He no longer fought the giant phantom head-on and started to play the wizard's game.
But that was enough to turn the surrounding area into ice and snow, and let the flood drown out the attacks from all sides, but it still couldn't do anything to the giant phantom.
The giant phantom waved his giant arms, and used his ultimate strength to blast away the blizzard. Facing the oncoming whirlpool of water, he did not even try to block it, but used his own huge body to withstand it. He actually endured it forcefully, as stubborn as a reef hit by the waves.
At first glance, you can tell that this giant phantom is the same type as the troll, proud of its strength and defense. It is slow, but has high attack and defense, thick blood and thick skin. It is not easy for Xiao Haier to defeat it.
Xiao Hai'er didn't dare to be hit by the giant phantom's attack. Once hit, she would definitely be seriously injured. The mermaid girl could only dodge by relying on her flexible speed and body skills.
The two phantom demons, one big and one small, were stuck in a stalemate.
Without the intervention of a third party, this stalemate might not last for ten days or half a month.
It’s a pity that Xiao Hai’er is not alone.

"boom!"
Suddenly, an astonishing spiritual power burst out from Xiao Haier's body, causing the scale of the blizzard she created to expand dozens of times in an instant, and the power to increase by more than ten times, causing the giant phantom demon's entire body to tremble violently.
At the critical moment, Su Ming finally relied on the spiritual connection between himself and Xiao Haier to infuse his own spiritual power into Xiao Haier, causing Xiao Haier's power to surge.
After activating the spiritual harmony state and borrowing Su Ming's spiritual power, Xiao Haier became a dual-professional incarnation of a phantom demon. His strength was so strong that he could fight the poisonous insect queen, who was a leader among the nightmare species, for dozens of rounds.
Such a sudden increase in power caused the giant phantom demon to retreat continuously with a series of "bang bang bang" sounds. His entire body was covered with layers of ice crystals in the powerful blizzard, and he looked very miserable.
"roar!"
The giant phantom demon was suddenly filled with shock and anger.
What greeted it was a terrifying force.
I saw a figure that was pitifully small compared to the giant phantom demon suddenly rising from the ground. The right hand wearing a fingerless glove suddenly burned with a flaming blue light, illuminating the entire underground space.
The figure rushed to the front of the giant phantom demon that was retreating violently at an extremely fast speed, and delivered a dazzling blow to its chest that was as thick as a mountain wall.
"【Silver Arm·One-tenth·Punch】!"
Amidst the cold sound that resounded through the sky, a punch that flashed like an explosion of light hit the giant phantom demon heavily on the chest.
“Boom——!”
At this moment, the entire Midnight Maze suddenly trembled, and the sixth floor and the two adjacent floors were violently surging like an earthquake.
“What’s going on!?”
"What happened!?"
“Ahhhh!”
"careful!"
Many professional teams who were exploring the maze, fighting with phantom demons, or picking rare treasures were all caught up in the sudden tremor. It was like a real earthquake. They were either shaken to pieces, or affected by the collapsed terrain, buried, and suffered a disaster.
Especially the professionals on the sixth level, all of them were in a state of panic and fleeing in embarrassment, as if they were caught in a natural disaster like an earthquake.
Everyone including Chi Qian, Mu Yan, Feng Qing'er, Tong Xinyao and others who were rushing towards Su Ming and Xiao Hai'er were affected.
"careful!"
Chi Qian's face changed drastically, and he handed Tong Xinyao in his arms to Feng Qing'er without hesitation. He then jumped up with a long sword in his hand and smashed the countless huge rubble and rocks that were attacking him on the spot.
"Catch it now!"
Mu Yan could no longer maintain her usual image of an icy beauty. She swung out a thorny whip with a frightened look on her face, which entangled Feng Qing'er and Tong Xinyao, and also hung herself on a stone pillar connected to the ceiling to avoid being blown away by the raging shock wave.
Chi Qian even rushed into an incoming sandstorm. Her figure could be vaguely seen rising rapidly, and her whole body transformed into an enchanting demon form. With amazing strength, she swung the sword in her hand, cutting through the incoming sandstorm and shock wave on the spot, protecting Mu Yan, Feng Qing'er, Tong Xinyao and others behind her.
Just like that, I don’t know how long the earth-shaking feeling lasted.
The giant phantom demon who was at the center of the light explosion had his whole body exploded in the shocking movement.
That scene was like a mountain collapsing.
