Chapter 1429: His Name

The piercing shattering sound seemed, at this moment, to break not just the rules.

In his view, the spatial rules that had originally given him certainty, stacked with many layers, now seemed like a hole that had been dug out.

Layer upon layer, the dense spatial control effects, through his deliberate stacking, were sufficient to serve both offense and defense.

Like a top‑tier Safety house.

Any creature that approaches him will be forcibly pulled back and suffer a massive spatial attack.

But now..

Only seen, the Aberrant Mutant stubbornly resisting the rift attack kept letting out low growls, its long, sharp bone claws actually grabbing the edge of a void rift.

Exerting force, it locked.

As if trying to burrow in, it endured the agony of flesh being torn away and hurriedly 'crawled' toward him.

Blood‑colored skull...

Within the shattered bones, a large amount of fresh blood seemed to coagulate.

The Aberrant Mutant, continually under attack, had its dazzling white‑bone War Armor stained blood‑red.

In those scarlet eyes there was no pain, no emotion, only a numb, beast‑like instinct to devour him.

Why!? Why are the rules ineffective!?

No, it's not ineffective. Rather, their rules seem hard to work on this monster; each contact with the Aberrant Mutant weakens and absorbs them..

Just like... water returning to the sea.

He dared not think or guess the meaning behind it; in his fury, Nu Ya could no longer afford to hold back.

In an instant, wave after wave of rule attacks slammed down like a violent tsunami.

The bone‑spur dual blades in his hand suddenly slashed toward the Aberrant Mutant's head.

He could no longer worry that the battle's aftermath would destroy the transformation core!

In the face of death, nothing is more important than his life!

He is a King‑rank! He is the king of the Alien Species! He feels that if he drags this on, something even more terrifying might happen!

This monster, which resembles a Sovereign to an extreme degree, definitely has a problem!

However, it was already too late.

It was just this brief few seconds of hesitation.

Perhaps Nu Ya never imagined that he shouldn't have 'awakened' the Aberrant Mutant that was devouring the transforming power; instead, at the moment he saw it, he should have directly used his physical strength to kill the monster.

Just as they had done before.

Too bad no one could tell him that.

The next second, only seen, Lin An forcibly gnawed a hollow out of the rule‑net; at this moment, as if digesting the power he had previously swallowed, his speed suddenly surged.

The gaping maw stretched to its limit contained no internal organs.

Just like a moving white‑bone War Armor, the icy white bone formed the esophagus.

Merely looking at it lets one imagine how terrifying it would be to be swallowed!

That would be ground into powder, completely fused into one!

Whoosh!

The sharp bone claws and the tip of the bone wings on his back stabbed out instantly, ignoring the defensive rules Nu Ya had added to himself, with a soft 'pop' piercing Nu Ya's chest.

Fresh blood spattered, and the intense pain made Nu Ya's whole body twitch.

Hard enough to withstand a fusion explosion, the scales instantly burst.

In the intense pain, Nu Ya couldn't help but let out a miserable scream.

It wasn't bodily pain; rather, he could feel that the bone spur the monster had driven into his body was like a straw, continuously draining his primal power.

Moreover, from some unknown time, his constantly circulating rule power now seemed to have been cracked, abruptly turning to suppress him.

Creak creak

The defensive rules originally covering his surface suddenly contracted, squeezing his whole body; this King‑rank Alien Species felt nothing but shock and fear.

Even after shrinking, it still had a massive size of tens of meters, but under the compression it became like a lump of flesh, being crushed down to ten meters.

The skull compressed the brain matter, the scales crushed the flesh.

Accompanied by the creaking, teeth‑aching compression sound, Nu Ya, who had not endured such pain for a long time, now became somewhat panicked.

He could not understand how this monster managed to do this!

Moreover, he actually felt from this monster that his own rule power was being devoured and turned to the monster's use.

This is!!?

Suddenly realizing, seeing this bizarre sight before him, Nu Ya, struggling desperately, suddenly realized what this was!

Our rules...

Will be converted!?

Our attacks will be ineffective!?

So...

He will too!?

No! It originates from him!!?

No.. he is..!?

Ahhhhhhhhh!!

After such an unimaginable guess arose.

Before Nu Ya could even be shocked in his heart, the Aberrant Mutant had already rushed to his front, like a live feast, biting large mouthfuls of his flesh.

No time to think further, realizing he had instantly fallen into a life‑or‑death crisis, Nu Ya frantically struggled, his previously compressed body straining to expand!

No! He can't be eaten! He doesn't want to die!

The Rule Power can't be used anymore!

Their Rule Power will go wrong; it's fundamentally because this monster is the true master of these Rule Powers!

He realized it! He realized just who the Aberrant Mutant before him was!!

Only that person would want to devour them completely!!

«Perfect One!! »

«Long An!!! »

«You are Long An!!! »

The shrill screams and shouts tore open the darkness.

The Aberrant Mutant, lying on Angry Fang's body and greedily devouring flesh and blood, suddenly lifted its head upon hearing Angry Fang's unbelievable wail and roar.

In those originally motionless scarlet eyes, a flicker like a soul's fire suddenly trembled.

«Long... »

«An... »

Hoarse, murmuring, repeating.

That seemed to be his former name.
