Chapter 3164: Death Bloom

On the rock platform at the very center of Athos Island, the venue with a diameter of more than 1000 meters looked empty, but a large number of dead trees stood around it. Each dead tree was more than 30 meters tall, and the withered branches were intertwined until they were airtight.

Looking down from above, these trees were like a circle of thick wooden walls surrounding the rock platform, making this place no longer look empty. At this moment, this was the place for the decisive battle.

Boom.

Blood Qi and the golden-black aura collided, each occupying half of the venue, eroding each other, pushing the surrounding ring-shaped tree wall until it creaked.

A golden lightning bolt struck down, hitting a dead branch on the top of the tree wall. I don't know what kind of tree this was, but after it withered, it was not afraid of golden lightning, and the wood was non-conductive, so the golden lightning stayed on it and dissipated as time passed.

Su Xiao stood in the Blood Qi. The confrontation of auras made him feel at all times that a barrier was pressing toward him. As long as his aura retreated by a fraction, he would be suppressed by the enemy's aura, thereby losing the first opportunity, and the entire battle would be suppressed and fought.

A hundred meters away, Kingsley stood in front of the sunlight pillar. His back-combed hairstyle was still maintained, but unfortunately, the spirit in his eyes had faded, and golden line insects swimming in a ring shape appeared in his double pupils.

With a rip, the clothes on Kingsley's shoulder shattered, and black tentacles as thick as a little finger protruded. These tentacles had slender tips, and each tentacle was more than 5 meters long, covered with dense black scales. These tentacles, which looked full of power, were twisting.

It is worth mentioning that tentacles and feelers have essential differences. The former often appears on insects and strange beasts, while feelers are mostly marine organisms. As for black tentacles, this is very iconic, and it is highly likely to be an Ancient God.

After a large number of tentacles exploded from Kingsley's shoulder, these tentacles, more than 5 meters long, began to intertwine, wrapping Kingsley inside. Head, torso, legs, and even ten fingers.

In an instant, Kingsley was tightly wrapped. His changes continued. In the gaps between these densely intertwined tentacles, black-red flesh buds grew wildly. Not only that, a skeleton with a simple structure but natural formation was generated rapidly.

Dark red flesh buds climbed and grew on this skeleton. At this time, where could Kingsley still be seen? He was wrapped in the very center.

"Roar."

A humanoid monster about four meters tall appeared. On the left arm of this humanoid monster, there was sparse and withered, yet elegant "hair." Looking closely, one would find that these were actually disguised by a kind of line insect.

The monster Su Xiao was facing at this time was the Supreme Insect's combat form. The Supreme Insect's style, which looked very similar to the Demon Insect Clan, was actually completely different and not in the same system at all.

Everything the Demon Insect Clan did was for the entire group, while the Supreme Insect was for its own evolution. It split sub-bodies, more like using a tool or weapon. Its ultimate goal was to make itself stronger and evolve to the highest level.

This also represented one thing: the Supreme Insect itself was very powerful. Otherwise, it would not have been qualified to fight head-on with the Moon Wolf in the past.

More importantly, the Supreme Insect was very good at fighting. It had devoured many worlds. In this process, various strong people from those worlds would naturally find the Supreme Insect, wanting to defeat and kill it.

Crack!

Another golden lightning bolt struck down, hitting the rock disk 100 meters above Su Xiao and the Supreme Insect. The disk collapsed with the sound, and the rubble splashed toward the surroundings like heavenly maidens scattering flowers.

The Supreme Insect just looked up and ignored it. It could not control that kind of golden lightning, but it could be certain that this kind of golden lightning would never strike it.

Bang!

The weapon in the Supreme Insect's hand rested on the ground. This weapon had a strange shape. At first glance, the shape of this thing was like an extra-large chicken leg, with a total length of about three meters. After careful observation, it was found that this weapon was composed of biological tissue + metal + line insect. The entire exterior of this weapon was fresh red flesh, covered with bumps, and on the outer edge was a circle of blade edges. This blade edge looked both heavy and sharp.

It could be said that being chopped by this weapon, which looked like a heavy recurve blade, would not only receive strong slashing damage, but because it was heavy, it would also suffer blunt damage and knockback effects.

Think it's over? Of course not. This weapon named "Hatred" had line insects parasitizing inside. After being wounded by "Hatred," the line insects inside would take the opportunity to invade the enemy's body, causing huge internal damage in a short time.

The humanoid monster with dark white skin stood there, holding "Hatred" in its right hand. This was the appearance of the Supreme Insect during combat. Located at its brow, there were three ring marks nested together, which, combined with its golden-red eyes, made it look extremely cold. That was a kind of arrogant coldness.

Even separated by a hundred meters, Su Xiao could feel the pressure coming toward him, stronger than the pressure when fighting the Moon Wolf. At that time, the Moon Wolf was already dead and eroded by the power of the abyss.

And the current Supreme Insect, because of the death battle with the Moon Wolf, had its strength significantly reduced, but after parasitizing Kingsley and devouring a large number of S-level dangerous objects, the Supreme Insect's strength had recovered quite a bit.

If it were a one-on-one fight, Su Xiao's chance of winning was very low. The Supreme Insect itself was very difficult to deal with, and the other party also parasitized Kingsley, having most of Kingsley's abilities. Heaven knows what abilities Kingsley had obtained through the Son of the World over these years. Golden lightning should be just one of them.

The current situation was favorable to Su Xiao. Not only were Amu, Bubu Wang, and Baja there, but Hunting Tide was also there.

This time Amu had a new mission. It didn't have to rush up to be beaten, thereby creating opportunities for Su Xiao. It just had to protect Hunting Tide well this time.

Hunting Tide could be called a boss killer. Otherwise, Su Xiao would not have summoned her. No matter what, Su Xiao had wiped out the Tianba warriors of the Heavenly Palace. Even if he didn't wipe out the Tianba clan, in Hunting Tide's cognition, Su Xiao was also an enemy.

Hunting Tide had tried to resist, but after her IQ was wantonly played with, she became honest. Besides, she had been killed by Su Xiao, and there was the 【Source】 in her heart.

Hunting Tide cared very much about the Tianba warriors of the God's Kingdom. The existence of Tianba warriors was to protect the clansmen and protect the 【Source】.

Hunting Tide's ancestors had been guarding the 【Source】 for generations, but now, the 【Source】 was in her heart. Besides, Hunting Tide knew one thing: in addition to this water-characteristic 【Source】, that fire-characteristic 【Source】 had also been born. The Source Guardian Edri Dewen was dead, and now it was the Giant King and a girl named Liu guarding the fire-characteristic 【Source】.

Hunting Tide certainly knew the Giant King. In her cognition, the Giant King was the strongest in the world she was in, stronger than the Source Guardian Edri Dewen by a tier. As for the Source Girl Liu, Hunting Tide hadn't heard of her, but thought she wouldn't be weak.

Hunting Tide chose to be honest, enduring humiliation and bearing the burden, and had been a "female secretary" for so many days, because she had to protect the 【Source】 in her heart, and was also worried that if her sneak attack on Su Xiao failed, would Su Xiao go to the God's Kingdom and slaughter her clansmen until not one was left?

Based on Hunting Tide's observation of Su Xiao, she felt that the more successful her plan was, the more miserable the retaliation would be. Unless she could kill this person, he never took revenge overnight, and not only did he kill the roots, but he also wanted to shovel the land.

Hunting Tide weighed it in her heart. Su Xiao did kill all the Tianba warriors, but he likely didn't go to slaughter the Tianba clan. If she took revenge now, once she failed, her death was a small matter, but the Tianba clan she once guarded would suffer a devastating disaster. By then, the Tianba would truly cease to exist.

Thinking of these, Hunting Tide gripped the bow and arrow in her hand tightly. She looked at Amu beside her, knowing in her heart that this was protecting her, and also guarding against her slacking off in battle, as well as suddenly rebelling.

Hunting Tide drew a slender arrow, nocked it, and pulled the bow. She looked at the monster in the distance that was over four meters tall and had pressure so strong it terrified her. She estimated that if she were approached by that monster, she would definitely die.

This made Hunting Tide determined to find a way to kill this monster. If Su Xiao won, she didn't know what her ending would be, but if this monster won, she would definitely be very miserable, being gnawed until she was unrecognizable, and finally not even leaving a residue. Thinking of this, Hunting Tide, the number one beauty of the Tianba who cared about her appearance, was angry.

【God's Eye】 floated behind Su Xiao. This was Su Xiao's consistent tactic: detect enemy data before fighting for his life, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.

【Comparing intelligence attributes of both sides... My true intelligence attribute is 0.995 times that of the enemy, and 59.5% of the enemy's data has been detected.】

PS: (I wrote 12,000 words today, the amount of six updates in the past, but I am prepared to split it into three chapters to publish, so it reads more coherently. Sorry, the update is late. I promised to update at noon, but I wanted to finish writing this decisive battle, so I wrote until now. Breaking the chapter in the battle section, Feiwen is really afraid of being hacked to death by the readers.) ===== CHAPTER 3165 =====
