“There’s a Void?!”
Lin Huang lifted his eyes immediately to look in the direction of the Battlefield of the Dragon Abyss. At the same time, he used Divine Telekinesis to make a sweeping scan. Very soon, he saw the Void’s full appearance.
It was a gigantic python with horns on its head similar to that of a dragon. Half of its body occupied a star. Although the star was ablaze, the massive python remained completely unharmed. The upper half of its body was raised high and was more than seven to eight times longer than the star’s diameter.
The black bat wings on its back were only slightly unfurled and were already more than several times larger than the surface area of the star.
The eight crimson eyes on its head spewed lava-like sparks. Each of its eyeballs was far bigger than the other surrounding stars.
It was, without a doubt, a colossus.
“Is this the legendary Apocalypse Dragon Python?!” Lin Huang could not help but raise his brows.
Although the Battlefield of the Dragon Abyss only allowed powerhouses below heavenly god-level to enter and hunt, in the earliest times, it was actually the main battlefield of a fight between a Dragon Tribe Lord and an Abyssal Lord.
Back then, the Abyssal Lord was an Apocalypse Dragon Python that had been killed here by the Dragon Tribe Lord.
The information that Lin Huang had read about this fight in the Battlefield of the Dragon Abyss was by no means detailed, and much of the information was unclear. However, he managed to guess at a glance that this creature ought to be the Apocalypse Dragon Python that had been killed.
Upon seeing the Apocalypse Dragon Python, Lin Huang immediately realized why there was not a single Void in the entire star zone.
This Apocalypse Dragon Python had most likely eaten all the Voids, not just in the Devil Hunter Star Zone, but probably in the several other star zones near the Battlefield of the Dragon Abyss as well.
While Lin Huang was scrutinizing the Apocalypse Dragon Python, it was weighing him up as well.
It found it rather peculiar that this human had appeared without warning. However, its thoughts were soon occupied by its appetite.
The aura coming from this human in front of it was delicious—much more so than all the Voids it had consumed before.
From the time it sensed the aura emanating from Lin Huang, it had been drooling involuntarily.
Naturally, Lin Huang became aware of why the other was drooling and could not help raising his brows. “You think I’m as big a prize as the elixir of immortality?!”
At that moment, the Apocalypse Dragon Python suddenly flapped its wings.
Its gigantic figure leaped forward and swooped toward the Devil Hunter Star Zone where Lin Huang was.
Lin Huang smirked and shook his sleeves. Countless God Weapon flying daggers shot out furiously, forming a giant dragon in the starry dome of the heavens, which then charged toward the Apocalypse Dragon Python.
That was one of the advantages Lin Huang had, unlike Zhan Zhuo—his God Weapons could be brought into the virtual realm. This was because God Weapons were different from ordinary equipment in that they became entirely part of the body after they were refined. They would be considered bones or organs by the virtual realm, so they would not be restricted.
The Apocalypse Dragon Python was furious when it saw the dragon beast that suddenly appeared in the void. Although it had long since lost any memories from when it was alive, it would still become enraged for no reason whenever it saw dragon beasts now.
In reality, Lin Huang had done this on purpose to irk it.
Although the size of this dragon beast formed from over a million God Weapon flying daggers could not compare to the Apocalypse Dragon Python at all—it was not even as big as one of the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s eyes—Lin Huang was very confident about his attack.
In the starry sky, endless black rays radiated simultaneously from the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s eight eyes, as if eight massive shockwaves were attacking the blood-red dragon beast made from the God Weapon flying daggers.
The dragon beast scattered into countless lightning arcs immediately and spread in all directions, easily dodging the other’s attack. It then re-formed, charging toward the Apocalypse Dragon Python.
By the time the Apocalypse Dragon Python wanted to react, it was a little too late.
Powered by the Dao seal and compounded with over twelve thousand levels of sequence power, the blood-red dragon beast went through one of the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s eight eyes immediately and exited through another eye.
Within the blink of an eye, it had destroyed two of the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s eyes.
On his part, Lin Huang did not dodge the attack that the God Weapon had evaded.
He hovered above the Pfister Star and raised eight Mirrors at the same time. Each Mirror had a surface bigger than the Pfister Star. They immediately met the incoming eight black rays shooting out of the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s eyes.
Practically the instant Lin Huang raised the Mirrors, eight black shockwaves hit them almost simultaneously. With not even a pause of 0.0001 seconds, the black shockwaves were deflected back straight away.
The eight shockwaves changed direction without stopping, aiming straight for the Apocalypse Dragon Python.
Before the Apocalypse Dragon Python could recover from the pain of losing two eyeballs, the eight black shockwaves were already approaching—and were coming straight at its face.
Amid its shock and consternation, the Apocalypse Dragon Python hurriedly attempted to dodge, but it was already too late.
Although it managed to evade slightly, four of its remaining six eyes were destroyed.
In an encounter that lasted barely the time it took for a breath, the Apocalypse Dragon Python had lost six of its eight eyes.
Very likely, it still had not managed to figure out what exactly had just happened.
‘This fellow has powerful defenses. Not only that, the area around its head seems to utilize a special defense technique.’ Lin Huang felt it was a pity that he had failed to kill the creature in his earlier attack.
His purpose in having the God Weapon flying daggers evade the other’s attack and then re-form was so he could use the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s eyes as the breaching point to destroy its head directly.
He had never expected that after the God Weapon flying daggers penetrated its eye, there would be another shielding layer protecting its head. Lin Huang had no choice but to retreat and settle for the next best option—manipulating the God Weapon flying daggers to pierce through its second eyeball.
The deflected attack seemed to have hit it directly in the face and destroyed four of its eyeballs. In all honesty, Lin Huang had not expected that to happen.
He thought the creature would be able to react in time and shield its eyes since they were such vital points.
Perhaps it had been too long since it had encountered a powerful opponent, so its actual combat abilities had weakened. Perhaps it had been momentarily careless, or whatever other reason, allowing the attack to achieve unexpected results.
Although Lin Huang had gained the upper hand in this encounter, he did not dare to underestimate the creature in the least. After all, it was a bona fide Lord, and its physical strength might already be near middle-rank lord-level.
Eyes were indeed crucial to ordinary people.
However, to lord-level powerhouses, eyes did not have a significant effect.
This was because lord-level powerhouses rarely relied solely on their vision to capture their opponents’ movements in battle. They depended on Divine Telekinesis most of the time.
Lin Huang destroying his opponent’s six eyes at the beginning of the battle did not have any substantial effects on the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s abilities. At most, it had only taken away one of its attack methods, but it had also made the creature more cautious now.
After this, Lin Huang controlled the God Weapon flying daggers, intending to try and destroy the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s remaining two eyes. However, it was clearly more alert now and did not give him so much as a chance for that.
‘This fellow has such thick skin. I’m afraid this battle is going to consume a considerable amount of time.’ Lin Huang tried attacking the Apocalypse Dragon Python’s other body parts. After a moment, he could not help frowning slightly.
