Chapter 388: Complementary Characteristics

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Empiricism kills.

In this region named the No-Man’s Land by Lu Ming, the rock layers above and beneath were unyieldingly hard—both the Desolate Demon Lord and Bai Zhe had tried, and not only was it challenging to create a large hole in the ground, even digging a grave would take them hours.

So, from the beginning, neither of them felt that the danger would come from beneath…

Yet, the danger indeed came from below.

Whether it was the gigantic three-headed monster that emerged from the ground or the sudden appearance of sinkholes, both caught Bai Zhe and the Desolate Demon Lord off guard.

Boom!

Bai Zhe landed on his feet and stabilized himself. His body quickly straightened and tensed.

Surveying the surroundings and overhead, Bai Zhe realized he had fallen into a hundred-meter deep pit.

“No, it’s not a pit, this is…”

For a moment, Bai Zhe could not find a good description.

This was because what appeared before him was a vast underground s.p.a.ce that extended in all directions…

A large number of smooth paths branched out in all directions, with Bai Zhe standing at the center.

It was like a spider web, and Bai Zhe was in the middle of the web, like an insect hunted by a spider.

Faint sounds came from all directions.

Taking out the light stone, in the dim glow, Bai Zhe could see a large number of three-headed monsters converging from all directions and surrounding him in the center.

A voice suddenly sounded from above.

The three-headed monsters that had just appeared on the ground jumped into the pit from the ground, but they did not land directly. Instead, they clung to the walls at the exit and their bodies rapidly petrified.

They became stoppers, blocking the entrance above.

Considering the formidable hardness of the petrified three-headed monsters, it would likely take quite some time for Bai Zhe to break through the pa.s.sageway upward.

This made Lu Ming realize one thing.

“Good fellow, someone’s playing a tactical game here.”

Clearly, the mastermind controlling the three-headed monsters had designed a big trap for the Desolate Demon Lord and Bai Zhe.

Boom!

The Desolate Demon Lord felt as if he had become an ordinary person, and then a solid car crashed into him.

The surging force sent the Desolate Demon Lord flying, drifting in the air for five or six seconds before cras.h.i.+ng forcefully to the ground.

Instantly, his chest felt a sharp pain.

Looking down, the Desolate Demon Lord saw himself pinned beneath the gigantic three-headed monster, their sharp claws tearing at his chest like swords.

“d.a.m.n it!”

He stretched out his hand and ruthlessly grabbed the monster’s sharp claws, and both sides went all out, but they fell into a stalemate.

In terms of pure physical strength, the monster in front of him was no weaker than the Desolate Demon Lord at all!

Raging demonic aura roared out, and there was a faint golden light in the demonic aura—that was the Divine Source!

Evidently, the Desolate Demon Lord had exerted his full strength.

The earthen yellow demonic aura covered the giant monster. According to past logic, it might only take an instant for the vitality of the giant monster to be sucked dry by the Desolate Demon Lord’s demonic aura. After all, the Desolate Demon Lord had not sensed any spiritual aura fluctuations from the giant monster.

In other words, according to the standards of the Black Mist Zone, this giant monster, strong as it was, was only a quasi-G.o.d, not a divine being who could use the Divine Source.

But an unexpected scene unfolded.

The demonic aura landed on the giant monster but had no effect, as it was like a ball of air pressing down on the Desolate Demon Master, rather than a solid target.

At this moment, the Desolate Demon Lord immediately recalled what Jiu Han had said earlier.

“These three-headed monsters and the anomalies in the Dead Sea are all biological weapons produced by the same biotechnology, with differences in performance.”

Anomalies could devour source power, especially countering those transcendent beings under the pseudo-source power system.

As for this giant three-headed monster, it seemed to be completely immune to any attacks under the pseudo-source power system!

“So, what about this?”

The Desolate Demon Lord’s expression hardened, a radiant light appearing in his right hand, and energy waves containing an icy aura erupted from his hand and landed on the three-headed monster.

This was the alien energy in the Desolate Demon Lord’s body.

It was with this thing that the Desolate Demon Lord was immune to the pursuit of the anomalies.

When this icy energy landed on the surface of the three-headed monster’s body, a different situation occurred.

When this ball of energy quickly flowed into the body of the three-headed giant monster, it groaned, seemingly quite comfortable. The Desolate Demon Master immediately felt the power coming from his hand increase a little.

His expression instantly stiffened.

And in this moment of daze, the giant monster , had roared angrily, lifting the Desolate Demon Lord and throwing him into the distance.

Inside the Bos.h.i.+ Tower, Lu Ming was no longer in seclusion to cultivate.

Instead, he sat with Jiu Han, watching the battle between the Desolate Demon Lord and the giant monster in the outside world.

When he saw that the Desolate Demon Lord’s two attempts were fruitless, Lu Ming slowly furrowed his brows.

“A tough guy.”

“Moreover, its abilities seem to complement the anomalies, exhibiting a certain mutual compatibility.”

Anomalies were specially born to hunt down transcendent beings under the pseudo-source power system.

And the so-called pseudo source power system was the source power system originally circulating within the Black Mist Zone.

Any living being growing within the Black Mist Zone, as long as there were source power fluctuations in their bodies, possessing source power cultivation, could not escape the tracking of the anomalies. Moreover, their strength would be suppressed by the anomalies. Once discovered by the anomalies, they were basically unable to escape death.

However, the giant three-headed monster was different.

Its restraint on the pseudo-source power system was not absolute, but was just completely immune to it. However, it had an extremely powerful restraining ability against the power of anomalies and even the true source power system that Lu Ming and Jiu Han were currently cultivating!

It could even absorb these energies and convert them into its own strength!

The anomalies countered the pseudo-source power system to harvest them.

As for the giant three-headed monster, it restrained everything else, cleaning up and hunting down all variables.

The two complemented each other.

This made Lu Ming involuntarily ponder another question.

“What kind of place is this No Man’s Land?”

Previously, he had speculated that he and his companions might have already left the Black Mist Zone.

But looking at it now, this statement was clearly incorrect.

They had not left the Black Mist Zone; instead, they had arrived at a deeper place.

It was also a place closer to the truth.

However, Lu Ming currently had no thoughts about the truth for the time being.

What he sought was just a quiet, safe place without danger—a place of peace of mind.

Coming to this place was also because they were being chased by Vicky, continuously venturing deeper into the Dead Sea, inexplicably ending up here.

As for the truth, Lu Ming cared about it to some extent but did not urgently pursue it.

The corner of his eye glanced towards the outside world, where he saw the giant monster roaring and chasing after the Desolate Demon Lord.

“I’ll go help him.”

Muttering to himself, Lu Ming stood up, intending to leave the Bos.h.i.+ Tower but was stopped by Jiu Han.

Jiu Han shook his head gently, “There’s no need to help.”

“You just need to focus on your own matters.”

“Mere monsters…”

As Jiu Han spoke, he looked at the Desolate Demon Lord, who was slowly getting up.

He narrowed his eyes and said softly, “Don’t think that these clan guardian G.o.ds are pushovers… Underestimating them could lead to big trouble..”
