Chapter 2029 A Critical Moment
(4, 0);
Because of Lin Yue's prior warning, they knew that this monster was very powerful, but they didn't expect it to be to this extent. Even with the ancient trial beads distributed by Lu Yu, they still caused huge casualties in a short period of time!
If it weren't for the help of the Ancient Test Bead, the number of casualties would have exceeded that of the palm technique. At least the two late-stage immortal masters who had come to the rescue earlier could not have escaped alive from the giant palm with their own strength.
When Lu Yu saw this scene, a solemn look appeared in his eyes.
With his vision, he was unable to see the true strength of this giant monster. He only judged based on the reaction of the ancient pearl mother-of-pearl that the barrier that could withstand the full force of a peak-level immortal could not last more than five breaths against this monster.
This shows how terrifying the power this monster is. Lu Yu can say with certainty that even the giant golden beetle they had encountered before is no match for this monster!
At the same time, the monster's head and two arms were completely exposed to everyone's sight.
Its blood-red skin was covered with festering rotten flesh, with disgusting maggots wriggling inside. From time to time, a few of them would fall to the ground, emitting a foul smell.
The crowd moved a little further away, observing the monster's every move with different expressions.
Just from the monster's previous attacks, they were unable to clearly determine the monster's attack methods, so they did not dare to act rashly, fearing that some actions would trigger a monster riot.
At this moment, the monster looked at everyone with a hint of desire in its scarlet eyes. It raised its arms to support itself on the ground of the oasis and pulled its upper body out of the ground.
Only then did everyone see clearly that only a pure white skeleton was left of its upper body. There was not a single intact part. It looked extremely horrifying!
Some people found it difficult to understand the situation and expressed doubts.
"Its body is just a skeleton. Shouldn't it have been dead long ago? Why does it have such a strong power!?"
"Even a quasi-emperor-level warrior cannot maintain his original strength in this state, let alone this monster!"
"Could it be possible that this monster was once even more powerful than it is now...?"
"I guess it's this strange space that allows it to survive in this state without affecting its strength."
Various analyses appeared in the discussion of the crowd, but the monster obviously had no interest in waiting for them to finish the discussion. After straightening up the skeleton of its upper body, it stretched out its two blood-red arms and swung them fiercely at several people not far away, bursting out with a terrifying momentum.
Perhaps because its upper body had left the ground, the monster swung its arms about 50% faster than before.
“Oh no!”
Seeing this scene, the faces of the immortals who were about to be covered by the giant palm changed drastically.
They hurriedly used their skills to dodge in all directions, trying to leave the range before the giant palm descended. Taking the previous few deaths as an example, even the ancient beads could not completely protect them from the monster's attack.
However, the monster was half as fast as them, and the three Immortal Lords did not react in time, resulting in them having no time to escape before the giant palm descended. They could only watch helplessly as the sky was covered by a black shadow.
When the people in the distance saw this scene, they all showed expressions of regret. With the strength of these three people, once they were completely covered by the monster's giant palm, there would be no hope of escape.
A few people couldn't bear it and wanted to step forward to help, but before they could move, they were stopped by the people next to them.
The murderous intent in Qing Bingying's eyes seemed to condense into ice, and her figure that was about to rush out was stopped by the people around her.
“Friend Qing, calm down! I know you want to save the three of them, but with your strength, you are no different from them in front of that monster! If you go over like this, you will only die in vain!”
"So what? Are we just going to do nothing and watch them die?" Qing Bingying said coldly.
"..."
The people who had stopped her were all startled when they heard these words, and slowly stopped themselves from stopping her, not knowing how to respond.
But it was too late to go over there now. After the delay, the monster's giant palm had already fallen very close to the ground, and was about to smash the three weak figures into minced meat!
Deep despair appeared in the eyes of the three people. They looked at the huge shadow above their heads and felt what it meant to cry out to the heavens and the earth but get no response!
Suddenly, a strong wind appeared in their ears.
Whoosh whoosh——
Before the three of them could react, they found that they had actually left the giant palm's coverage and reappeared more than ten feet away from the monster.
Standing in front of them was Lin Yue, who had just rushed out of the corridor.
“I actually survived…?”
"...It was fellow Divine Lord who saved us!"
"Thank you, fellow Taoist master, for saving my life!"
The three of them hurriedly expressed their gratitude, their eyes filled with gratitude. In their most desperate moment, someone risked his life to save them. This feeling is something they will never forget in their entire lives!
Lin Yue did not look back. His eyes were fixed on the monster and he spoke in a cold voice.
"Well, get out of here quickly and leave the rest to me."
"I understand." (5,0);
Upon hearing that, the three men immediately used their skills to leave, fearing that they would affect Lin Yue's subsequent battle.
The monster did not try to stop him. Instead, it looked at Lin Yue with its scarlet eyes, as if it realized that the person in front of it was the most important person...
Suddenly, it felt a strange sensation on its arm and slowly lowered its head to look.
Suddenly, barely detectable sword marks appeared on its blood-red skin, and foul-smelling pus and blood were oozing out.
The next moment, the monster's arm seemed to have suddenly endured thousands of attacks in an instant, making a series of explosions, and then collapsed.
It turned out that at the same time that Lin Yue rescued the three people, he had already launched an attack when it was not prepared.
After all, Lin Yue was willing to expose himself in front of it, not just to save a few people.
“Aa ...
Bloodshot appeared in the monster's scarlet eyes, and it let out a suffocating roar, then used its other arm to madly attack Lin Yue!
Whoosh——
The blood-red arm, mixed with a rotten smell, smashed fiercely towards Lin Yue's position, and the speed of the attack was even faster than the last time.
Lin Yue's figure flashed and suddenly became illusory.
Bang!
The monster's arm missed and fell to the ground, carving a deep black pit in the ground.
