Chapter 4356: Encirclement Hunt
Nearly a thousand Eastern Extreme Dragon Pythons roared in unison. Their voices poured into the castle, and the aura inside surged violently as Xuan Dragon Python began to awaken.
Lin Moyu felt the ancestor's aura and judged, "Still not fully healed. My chances are even greater!"
Judging such injuries through aura when the enemy is still unaware is usually very accurate.
As wave after wave of calls continued, the aura inside the castle grew ever more murderous.
Deciding the time was right, Lin Moyu summoned vast numbers of undead thralls, launching them into a staged battle against the dragon pythons. On the surface, the clash looked fierce a deadly struggle to the last.
In truth, both sides were acting. It was all a performance for the ancestor.
Finally, Xuan Dragon Python completely awakened. With a furious roar, he shattered the void only to be met by an overwhelming, sky filling onslaught of undead thralls.
The castle's specialty was concealment, but its grade was only just above the lowest level; under a saturated barrage from the undead, cracks quickly spidered across its surface. It wouldn't last long.
A terrifying aura burst forth as a dragon python a million meters long appeared, shaking the chaos.
His might scattered the undead's attacks. His gaze, sharp as blades, swept the field thousands of undead exploded into dust at a glance.
"What's happening!"
He was seething with anger his injuries not yet healed, this forced awakening had cost him at least a thousand years of recovery.
At once, a dragon python cried out, "Ancestor! The enemy is here they've slaughtered many of us!"
The void was littered with dragon python corpses. Seeing it all, the ancestor's fury grew, chilling into a murderous intent, and locked straight onto Lin Moyu.
He narrowed his giant dragon eyes. To him, Lin Moyu was just a Chaos Lesser Completion ant nothing.
But how could one such as that force his clan to such a state? Were the nine Greater Completion dragon pythons useless?
No matter. What mattered was that he had awakened. How dare one ant interrupt his healing? Lin Moyu deserved to die.
"Die!"
He thundered, and with that, unleashed a strike from thin air at Lin Moyu.
Unhurried, Lin Moyu activated his arrays space around him instantly blurred into a hurricane of chaos.
The attack meant for Lin Moyu veered off course, reappearing thousands of li away in empty space, then vanishing entirely.
"Hmm?"
The ancestor froze. At once, he sensed the shift this space had been shredded into uncountable fragments, so wild even he could not traverse freely.
If his spatial mastery was rendered useless, the same would be true for the other dragon pythons their biggest edge lost. Their fighting strength was instantly more than halved.
"So, you're a formation master. No wonder a mere Lesser Completion dares to provoke our tribe."
Lin Moyu gave no answer he simply produced the Soul Severing Needle.
It flashed across his fingertips. The ancestor's expression changed dramatically; he felt a mortal threat and let out a shaking roar, his power tearing the void to pieces. He escaped into ten separate independent spaces.
But the Soul Severing Needle flashed through the torn void, entering the ancestor's secret domain.
Fear filled the ancestor's eyes as he shrank his body and darted back into the castle for shelter.
The needle flared outside the castle, then sunk in after him.
A scream of utter agony echoed out; cracks spread faster and then with a deafening crash, the castle exploded apart!
The ancestor reappeared, his aura shaky and wounded. Lin Moyu could see it: the ancestor's soul was severely damaged, and such an injury wouldn't heal in a million years.
The Needle reappeared at Lin Moyu's fingers, dimmed until it recovered after a day.
The Third Elder's words were true the Soul Severing Needle could instantly kill a Chaos Greater Completion and grievously wound a Full Completion strong one.
The ancestor was not the strongest Full Completion being, and his injuries had not healed; after this, he was in dire shape.
With fear and rage in his eyes, the ancestor hissed, "You must die!"
"Too bad you can't kill me!" Lin Moyu snapped his fingers.
A flurry of attacks exploded out nine dragon pythons at Chaos Greater Completion struck at the ancestor. Moments ago, they had insinuated they'd protect him. Now, they unleashed their ultimate blows.
The onslaught was so sudden, and the ancestor, focused entirely on Lin Moyu, was caught completely off guard.
Normally, attacks of this level would do nothing to a Full Completion being. But now, wounded, unguarded, the ancestor was instantly overwhelmed.
Screams rang out as the ancestor's mighty force threw back the first wave, yet another followed, denying him even a second's respite.
Pressed from all sides, driven beyond endurance, the ancestor finally lashed out at his own kin, killing great numbers instantly. But those he killed returned instantly undead, fearless of death.
The undead legion surged in, drowning the ancestor in a barrage of spells and blows. For now, damage or no damage, their legion could not be ignored.
Lin Moyu's will issued a single word: "Sublimate!"
Once one enters the chaos realm, the powers of "Gathering Strength" and "Empowering Soldiers" fuse into a new origin spell: Sublimation.
Sublimation carried both effects, stronger than ever and this was the first time Lin Moyu used it in true combat.
Instantly, the undead thralls' auras soared; former half step Chaos beings now approached full Chaos Lesser Completion.
The dragon pythons, especially the nine Greater Completions, likewise grew stronger. Not at the ancestor's level yet but far stronger than before.
Even Lin Moyu himself his strength rocketed to the level of Chaos Greater Completion.
Wings of Chaos thundered. Lin Moyu manipulated the arrays, carving a path to the ancestor.
He stepped through in an instant, delivered by the formation right before the enemy.
"One Palm of Dao Annihilation!"
This palm contained refined chaos; all surrounding chaos qi was drawn into his strike.
Though Lin Moyu hadn't devoted himself to that art, centuries of insight and his newfound surge of power made this strike supremely potent.
The ancestor reacted, meeting palm for palm. But the Wings of Chaos, in concert with the Void Breaking Formation, sent his blow careening into the void a total miss.
Lin Moyu's palm landed square on his opponent's head. With a thunderous crack, dragon scales shattered; the ancestor reeled, and the other dragon pythons instantly pounced.
