Chapter 166: Challenge Successful, Good News

Inside the array map.

The Black Prison Hellhound appeared amidst the snowy mountains, surrounded by the Wind Technique and a blizzard.

However, it shook its body, causing the black flames on it to shrink and maintain a ten-meter radius, melting the wind and snow blowing in from all around.

This made it difficult for the power of the array, which was already a Spirit Tool, to invade its body.

But once the array map unfolded, forming a Barrier and pulling the opponent into its own home field.

For Su Ping, it already meant that he held the advantage.

To them, who were inside this array map, this place had already become a Xiaodongtian battlefield with a radius of dozens or even hundreds of square kilometers.

In this battlefield, Su Ping could exhaust all his means without worrying about being ambushed, while simultaneously utilizing the favorable timing and terrain provided by the array for offense and defense.

For the opponent to be his enemy was equivalent to attacking a Second Tier grand array.

"Dharma Image Divine Ability... Open!"

Su Ping raised his left hand, and the Spirit Bead gripped in his palm bloomed with light.

In the blink of an eye.

A hundred-meter-tall golden giant phantom appeared behind Su Ping.

At the same time, hundreds of arms emerged from the phantom's torso, and after layering and combining together, they formed a giant hand resembling a small mountain.

This giant hand transformed from void to reality and struck out with a single palm.

Simultaneously, the light of the Big Dipper in the sky shone brilliantly.

Three Greedy Wolf phantoms appeared abruptly and transformed into three beams of blue light, merging into the divine ability version of the Tathagata Palm struck by Su Ping, imbuing this palm with Greedy Wolf Divine Sense.

The Black Prison Hellhound's two heads opened their mouths simultaneously, inhaled sharply, and then spewed out black flames.

The two streams of black flames merged into one, forming an even larger fan-shaped sea of fire that collided with Su Ping's giant palm.

Then, in the next instant, this divine ability giant hand, clearly possessing a deeper foundation under the reinforcement of Su Ping's Spirit Bead, pressed directly against the black flames and slammed into the Black Prison Hellhound's head.

Yet, after the Black Prison Hellhound stopped spewing black flames, its six thick legs tensed up, and muscles that looked as if they were cast from steel were revealed all over its body.

Relying on brute force, it actually cracked the earth with a 'Crack!' sound while blocking the immense power of the divine ability giant hand.

And as the Greedy Wolf Divine Sense flowing along the giant hand submerged into the Black Prison Hellhound's head, it did indeed cause its brain to reel, and even black blood began to flow from its seven orifices.

Yet it still did not fall, stubbornly bracing against the divine ability giant hand.

At the same time, the black flames on its back surged into mid-air, manifesting a translucent phantom of the Black Prison Hellhound.

It was actually launching a counterattack against Su Ping!

However, this phantom's offensive was seen through directly by Su Ping with the help of the array's reinforcement.

With a movement in his heart, the Spirit Bead flew out, broke through the defense at the center of the Black Prison Hellhound phantom's brow, and erupted with Golden Light after entering its forehead.

This caused the Black Prison Hellhound phantom to dissipate into the wind and snow before it had even run halfway.

At the same time, Su Ping drank a Life Potion and a Mana Potion.

Relying on chugging potions to restore his Dharma Power and vitality.

Su Ping condensed his Fist Intent.

Boom!

That Black Prison Hellhound also sensed a trace of danger, and black flames erupted all over its body, constantly canceling out and annihilating the divine ability giant hand.

In just a few breaths, it had forcibly exhausted the pressing divine ability giant hand.

Then it collided with the Beidou Tanlang Fist swung by Su Ping.

This punch condensed the Pojun Power, the intent of Seven Killings, and the Greedy Wolf Divine Sense.

Aside from lacking the time to use potions to build up power, it could already be considered one of Su Ping's most powerful ultimate techniques at present.

The power of this punch did indeed have an effect.

For the first time, it hit the pouncing Black Prison Hellhound head-on and sent it flying.

While shattering and scattering the black flames all over its body.

It also sent its massive body soaring away to crash into the snowy mountains, triggering a series of mountain groans and even an avalanche.

Only, it was not enough!

The tenacity of this guy's vitality was truly worthy of being treated as a boss in the Abyss Challenge!

Although dizzy and looking incredibly disheveled.

Even the two wolf heads were bald in many places.

Yet its eyes burned with fighting spirit, and after just shaking its massive body a few times, it howled and charged at Su Ping again.

Then it was sent flying by Su Ping's punch once more.

Boom, boom, boom!

Getting up, charging, and being sent flying by a punch from the human who looked like an ant in its eyes!

The Black Prison Hellhound, which had been sent flying and climbed up again, finally did not continue to act on impulse and launch a counterattack this time.

It... felt exhausted.

And a flash of confusion crossed its mind; even with its terrifying physical body, it was this exhausted from the intense battle just now.

Why... could the tiny human before it still not fall!

Su Ping naturally had his limits too, but the potions from the shop were simply too effective.

For the stamina, endurance, and Dharma Power that were easiest to exhaust to their limits, he had the Life Potion and Mana Potion to support him.

Coupled with the Beidou Qixing Xiantiz, the North Star Divine Art that was finally a matching set, and the blessing of the Fox-Faced Shrine Maiden Sakura.

The consumption of performing the Beidou Tanlang Fist on himself now, if he only performed the normal power-up for one or two seconds like this, was enough for him to swing another ten or twenty punches even with his Divine Sense, which was the hardest to recover!

A battle of attrition!

Su Ping discovered that he already had the capital to compete with Abyss monsters of the same realm!

"Is it already in a fatigue phase?"

"Then it should be over!"

Su Ping held the Spirit Bead in his left hand and waved his right hand to cast twelve Thunder Light Fox Spells, summoning twelve Thunder Light Foxes.

With a single command!

The supernatural energy within the Spirit Bead poured out in full force.

Dozens of Supernatural Arms appeared around the Black Prison Evil Dog; ignoring the black flames erupting from its body, they seized the Black Prison Evil Dog's massive frame.

Then, just as the Black Prison Evil Dog flashed a hint of confusion as to why these supernatural constructs were not attacking.

It suddenly discovered three astonishingly imposing tornadoes emerging from the nearby ocean.

These tornadoes contained not only wind and snow but also Cold Ice Heavy Water!

Although it did not know what that was.

The Black Prison Evil Dog instinctively sensed unease and attempted to dodge.

Given its agility, it would not be caught by a normal tornado.

This was also the reason Su Ping did not use them at the start.

Now, as the Divine Ability Giant Hand fixed the Black Prison Evil Dog's movements in place.

Every time it struggled, it would be struck by the ultimate thunder light moves released by the Thunder Light Foxes at the cost of their remaining duration.

Twelve bolts of Heavenly Thunder struck simultaneously.

The thunder, carrying Divine Power, also acted with a targeting effect against the Abyssal Power similar to Evil Qi.

Although it failed to break through the Black Prison Evil Dog's tough black hide.

It still paralyzed the opponent, causing the black flames and power it had managed to gather to be scattered once again!

Unable to resist the grip of the Supernatural Arms, it was even forced to suddenly kneel on the snow.

It could only lift its two large heads, open its mouths wide, and let out a mournful, angry howl at the tornadoes spiraling down from the sky!

Boom!

The three tornadoes slammed into the Black Prison Evil Dog.

Continuously pouring Cold Ice Heavy Water into the Black Prison Evil Dog's body.

The aura of this Black Prison Evil Dog also grew weaker and weaker, gradually turning into a massive ice sculpture.

After becoming an ice sculpture, the Black Prison Evil Dog was actually still holding onto a breath of life.

While Su Ping clicked his tongue in wonder, he drank another bottle of Life Potion.

He gathered his strength and punched out with a boom!

The hundred-meter Black Prison Evil Dog ice sculpture was smashed to pieces.

At the same time, the Abyss Challenge success notification finally flashed before Su Ping's eyes.

Su Ping looked with delight at the massive rewards granted after the successful challenge:

【Congratulations on clearing the Normal difficulty for the first time】

【Clear Settlement: 5,000 Fishing Coins, 500 Small Experience Books, 50 Large Experience Books】

【Note: The Travel Shop has unlocked items; Normal Abyss Challenge Scroll; after the next refresh, there is a chance to refresh an Abyss Challenge Scroll that can only be opened on Normal difficulty!】

Su Ping finished reading the information prompt.

While marveling at the cockroach-like vitality of the Abyss monsters.

He also realized that if he wanted to open higher-difficulty Abyss Challenges or wanted to clear Normal Abyss Challenge Scrolls more easily.

Facing these thick-skinned Abyss monsters proficient in various defensive means...

Reasonably borrowing the official forces of Water Blue Star seemed quite necessary for reducing his own burden!

Additionally, if the Incense God could be maturely refined by utilizing He Mao Chun Yi Lang's Nether Ghost Body.

Perhaps the first few waves of minor monsters could all be solved with their help.

He would only need to face the big boss that they could not solve!

Going a step further, if they could be more proactive and help him farm Normal Abyss Challenge Scrolls, he would be even more relaxed, right?

However, these things all required long-term planning.

Furthermore, he must pay close attention to whether Water Blue Star still had other rare treasures like Cold Ice Heavy Water.

This challenge was successful thanks to the enhancement of this rare treasure; otherwise, he might have had to endure a bitter fight and waste quite a few items to take down that evil dog!

Withdrawing the formation map, Su Ping turned into a streak of Golden Light, dove into the Dahai, and disappeared.

The Space-Time Rift on the sea surface also, after the challenge ended.

Began to slowly close, turning back into a dark red crack before.

Disappearing in the blink of an eye.

It was as if it had never appeared in this sea area at all.

Realizing that the transcendent must have won.

The big shots and generals of Bangzi Country breathed a sigh of relief.

On the side of Flower Flag Country, however, they sent out the troops they had prepared long ago to begin cleaning the battlefield and collecting intelligence.

The Bangzi Country troops, who had fled the front lines in a sorry state, saw the Flower Flag Country army appear at this moment and dared not speak despite their anger.

Some officers also keenly realized that from the very beginning, they had been used as pawns to probe the mysterious enemy.

All that talk about bases needing time to prepare and aircraft carrier strike groups being unable to provide timely support had some truth to it, but it was mostly an excuse to calmly use them as cannon fodder!

Yet, even if they figured it out, these people could only secretly curse and hope the mysterious monster would attack the lair of Flower Flag Country next time so they could watch the joke; there was nothing else they could do...

They couldn't exactly jump out and shout that their own military factories wouldn't earn money and would refuse the other party's orders from today on, could they?

A heavy-duty helicopter from Flower Flag Country slowly flew to the mountaintop near the coastline.

Several generals and experts walked down to personally experience the battlefield traces under the Drone footage.

Looking at those damaged cannons, Armored Vehicles, and even some tanks, several experts whispered to each other while taking photos.

In their view, the mysterious enemy's means of attack were equally unfathomable.

Their modern protective measures might be ineffective; perhaps it would be more cost-effective to produce more self-propelled artillery to provide sustained firepower than to produce main battle tanks.

Additionally, radar stealth for Drones was as good as non-existent against these monsters.

It would be better to directly produce large Drones modeled after large bombers, letting them serve as projection platforms to conduct air-to-ground or air-to-air strikes.

Furthermore, an expert contacted the experimental team they had arranged at the scene.

Observers who had taken stimulants or other special drugs indicated that they still felt fear and had joined the army of those fleeing.

However, there was also good news.

Observers who wore special helmets that deceived the brain's five senses by forging plausible images seemed to be the least affected.

Even though a sudden great fear still arose in their hearts.

At least they could still maintain their sanity and were even able to continuously communicate with the rear through communication equipment.

The only regret was that this observer was knocked off the mountain by a group of irrational Bangzi Country soldiers during the evacuation, and their life or death is currently unknown...

Thanks to Qing'an Daye for the tip and for becoming a Helmsman of this book.
