Chapter 1428: Suppression and Counterkill

Boom!

Overwhelming pressure.

As if a mountain were pressing down.

Instantly, a King-level Alien Species with twin blades stood before him in the core area, its huge vertical pupils trembling rapidly.

As long as he confirmed what the target was and figured out how the opponent was stealing energy, he was confident he could end this crisis in one second!

After instantly releasing a space rule that locked onto the surroundings, Nu Ya let out a fierce shout, and his violent aura crashed down.

Damn thing!! Get out!!

His voice was like thunder.

He had intended to intimidate the enemy, but upon seeing the existence beneath the core at a glance...

In an instant, the originally furious King-level Alien Species suddenly froze.

Within the huge, flame-like eyes, a trace of incredulous shock and astonishment instantly appeared.

What is this?!

What is this!!??

No!! How is this possible!!? This monster is!!?

Stunned in place.

Nu Ya's mouth hung open, his charging posture suddenly halted, as if he had witnessed something utterly unbelievable.

In his sight, the monster standing beneath the transformation light pillar, continuously 'stealing' energy, was clearly a creature covered head to toe in bone spikes, almost entirely encased in white bone armor.

His arrival seemed to provoke no reaction from it.

And the energy within the transformation core, which even an Emperor could not easily absorb, now seemed to actively pour into its mouth, disappearing in large amounts.

Waves of strange and evil aura emanated from the 'small' white bone monster.

That outer storm was merely the shockwave formed by the dispersion of this aura.

It wasn't that the shock and transformation power could be absorbed by it; moreover, this monster looked nothing like the mutants.

At this moment, a name extremely familiar yet impossible for him to believe suddenly surfaced in Nu Ya's mind.

This form!? This aura!?

Emperor!?

Emperor!?

Even Lin An didn't know that, in his Aberrant Mutant state, he was exactly identical to the Alien Species Emperor!

The white bone armor and the bone spikes covering his entire body are possessions only attainable at the Sovereign stage!

A strong sense of familiarity instantly filled his mind.

Frightened into stupor, Nu Ya was now completely unable to comprehend what was happening, as if he had turned utterly foolish.

This is the Emperor's form!

As a King-level Alien Species, he had encountered the Sovereign countless times up close! He was extremely familiar with this form!

Perhaps the Alien Species Emperor's overwhelming oppression had left such a deep impression that, for a moment, he actually felt fear!

After being stunned for several full seconds, Nu Ya suddenly snapped back to his senses.

No! Impossible for it to be the Emperor!

The Emperor is still on Earth! Moreover, this white bone monster's aura and appearance differ from the Emperor's!

Furthermore, the Emperor has no bone wings!

The level is also wrong! Although it continually gave him a strange sense of familiarity, he was certain that this monster's level was not yet Fourth Stage Peak!

This white bone monster is fundamentally absorbing transformation power, steadily increasing its own strength!

Who are you!? Who exactly are you!!!

He dared not act rashly.

Nu Ya, extremely vigilant, crossed his twin blades before his chest and shouted angrily.

The opponent's impact, resembling that of the Alien Species' ultimate form, was simply too great for him!

Although he clearly knew he had to stop the opponent, he simply dared not make a move!!

Moreover, large numbers of Alien Species were rushing to reinforce, and with his combat power, he didn't even worry about letting the opponent escape.

However, no matter how shocked Nu Ya's heart was, or how torn he felt...

With a 'crack', the Aberrant Mutant, which had been mechanically absorbing energy, seemed to be 'awoken', stiffly turning its head.

Upon locking eyes, Nu Ya's heart jolted instantly.

In the white bone monster's eyes, he actually sensed a hint of greedy devouring intent.

What kind of gaze is this!?

This guy...

He wants to eat me!?

Boom!!!

The already sunken ground instantly shattered.

In an instant, the awakened Aberrant Mutant suddenly raised its bone spikes, resembling a long sword, and launched an attack directly at him.

At the extreme of pure physical speed, even space seemed to tremble for a moment.

A high-pressure delayed shockwave instantly pierced forth like an invisible blade.

Boom!!!

The battle began.

Although his thoughts were somewhat confused, as a King-level Nu Ya, it was naturally impossible for him to fail to react.

Upon realizing this strangeness, a monster similar to the Emperor dared to attack him, so he simply snorted coldly and instantly covered his front with a large expanse of rule power.

Reverse!

Rend!

Collapse!

Teleport!

Misalignment!

Superimpose!

Six rule characteristics erupted simultaneously; in the blink of an eye, the space before him surged like seawater, and countless "boiling" space bubbles instantly surrounded the Aberrant Mutant.

Crack-crack

The sound of continuously breaking bones suddenly rang out.

Under spatial tearing from sixteen directions, the Aberrant Mutant that had been moving at super speed seemed to sink into a mire, its speed sharply dropping. Moreover, as the rule's characteristics activated, the Aberrant Mutant began to lose control like a spinning top.

Under high-level limit rule attacks, the ability that previously seemed able to ignore Alien Species rules also seemed to fail at this moment.

Seeing the Aberrant Mutant under his direct control, constantly tugged and howling in spatial tearing, Nu Ya couldn't help but let out a slight sigh of relief.

Fortunately... it only looked somewhat like an Emperor rank in form, but its actual combat strength wasn't that strong.

Under super-effective thought, he quickly judged in an extremely short time that this monster merely possessed great physical strength.

But in the face of his near-crushing rule, it had no power to fight back.

Unlike the crude rules mastered by Alien Species below King rank, at his stage his rules had been strengthened threefold, already infinitely close to completely mastering a category!

Space, in his hands, could be kneaded like dough at will!

However..

Such strong defense..

Such fast flesh regeneration speed!

Staring fixedly at the Aberrant Mutant constantly pulled back and severed by his spatial rule, Nu Ya felt a surge of amazement.

His rule attack's main damage came from rending; merely on the basic rend effect, he could repeatedly superimpose, thereby erupting with hundreds of rend attacks in an instant.

Moreover, under four control effects, any enemy daring to leave the rend zone would be repeatedly teleported back into the spatial rift.

Just like continually throwing people into a crusher, a simple spatial attack in his hands could produce the effect of a dimensional storm!

But..

At this moment, the Aberrant Mutant unable to escape his attack was merely covered in bone fragments cut from its body; though it looked horribly gruesome, as if it were about to be sliced apart each time, it simply would not die.

"What the hell is this thing?!"

"Could it be a new 'species' researched by that group of mutants? Or..."

Crisis resolved.

Taking advantage of the control time, Nu Ya slightly lowered his double blades, feeling his heart suddenly relax.

Fortunately, this monster isn't very strong; it seems it hasn't absorbed enough energy yet.

With his strength, suppressing it wouldn't be difficult...

However, behind this thing likely hides a huge secret...

Especially, this form of Aberrant Mutant always gives him a feeling of familiarity, yet not quite certain.

This sense of familiarity is not an Emperor-rank form, but something else...

What could it be...

"King!! Have you arrived?!"

"How's the situation now?!"

Dense, urgent communications rang out one after another.

Hovering in midair, Nu Ya, who was controlling the Aberrant Mutant with divided attention, hesitated for a moment, then replied to the message.

The problem isn't hard to solve; he now simply doesn't want to keep strengthening his attack to kill this monster...

In an instant, Nu Ya couldn't help but flash a hint of greed in his eyes.

But just as he was considering whether to abandon the Aberrant Mutant, a strong, inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly erupted in his heart.

No.. not good!

What is this!?

Crack-crack

This time it was the sound of rules breaking.
