BOOM!!
BOOM!!
A giant foot stepped out from the Rift, slowly landing on the ice surface, causing it to tremble violently.
A faint roar echoed from the other side of the Rift, sending shivers down Chu Chen and Dimo's spines.
“A formidable enemy!!”
“This is definitely a formidable enemy!!”
Even before it fully emerged from the Rift, its presence commanded such awe,
leaving Chu Chen feeling somewhat apprehensive,
He knew that this was definitely a monster beyond imagination.
“Could this be the reason why the Rift has been inactive these past few days?”
“Did a heavyweight presence arrive?”
Gazing at the colossal foot,
Chu Chen couldn't help but speculate about the recent silence of the Rift.
He thought that perhaps this behemoth was the reason why the Rift had been quiet for a few days.
As Chu Chen contemplated,
from within the Rift,
the enormous figure finally emerged.
And its appearance sent both Chu Chen and Dimo into a state of shock.
The monster stood approximately twenty meters tall,
its upper and lower bodies resembling that of a human.
Muscles bulged across its entire frame, seeming to possess an explosive force.
At first glance, it looked like a rather muscular giant.
However, despite its humanoid form,
it had a terrifying head!
On that monstrous head,
firstly, there was a face of sorts,
a face unlike any human, devoid of a nose or eyes, but adorned with several mouths!
Several mouths, each lined with tiny, writhing tentacles!
Beside those mouths, rows of sharp and frightening fangs protruded!
Those dense, sharp fangs hung from the edges of its mouth, sending chills down anyone's spine upon sight.
Furthermore, its head lacked any hair,
instead, it sported numerous, writhing tentacles, each about twenty meters long, continuously flailing in the air, emitting a strange blood-curdling scent.
It was undeniably a monster through and through!
After this horrifying monster emerged from the Rift,
the Rift's activity didn't cease.
Or rather, it was just the beginning.
In the time that followed,
this now colossal Rift spewed out countless powerful creatures.
Creatures like "Virtual Number Weaver," "Outerverse Ice," and "Outerverse Flame," powerful beings Chu Chen had never encountered before,
now poured forth from the Rift as if they were free of cost.
Upon emerging, they didn't act, instead, they all gathered around the monstrous creature, seemingly awaiting something.
“This scene... it's eerily similar to what I witnessed earlier.”
“This giant-like monster seems to be the leader of these Rift creatures.”
“Are they gathering here to attack a specific location?”
This sight reminded Chu Chen of an event that occurred at the previous Rift.
At that time, a colossal savage, riding a flying beast, led a massive horde of Rift creatures towards a specific direction.
Now, the same scenario seemed to be playing out in this Rift.
“Forget it, there's no point in thinking about it, we should just stay away.”
“With so many powerful Rift creatures, now's not the time to confront them directly.”
“Otherwise, we might be in danger.”
After secretly observing for a while, Chu Chen subtly signaled Dimo,
indicating that this was a tough nut to crack and that they should make a quick escape!
Dimo, connected telepathically with Chu Chen, instantly understood his meaning.
It swiftly moved its four short legs, stealthily and cautiously retreating backward.
Chu Chen followed closely behind, slowly backing away together.
However, despite their utmost caution, almost silent in their movements,
they were still discovered!
To be precise, they were detected by the monstrous giant below.
ROAR!!!
A deafening roar erupted,
causing Chu Chen and Dimo to freeze in their retreat.
“Damn, we’re spotted!”
“Run!”
Without a moment to ponder how they were discovered,
Chu Chen exclaimed in alarm and prepared to flee with Dimo.
But before they could take off,
the giant monster leaped in a single bound, directly from the bottom of the canyon to their position!
“Crap!”
“What the hell?”
“It jumped up here?”
Staring at the overwhelming, brutal figure in front of them,
Chu Chen couldn't believe his eyes.
The canyon was at least thirty meters from top to bottom, and this monster simply leaped effortlessly to their position.
It was utterly ridiculous.
The giant monster ignored their shock,
sensing the two tiny ants at its feet,
several grotesque mouths on its face couldn’t help but drool.
This saliva flowed directly onto the ground,
coroding the ice with a sizzling sound!
In no time, a deep hole had been corroded into the ice.
“Its saliva is highly corrosive!”
“It sees us as food and wants to eat us!”
Witnessing the monster's saliva corroding the ice,
Chu Chen's heart sank to its depths.
With such terrifying corrosiveness,
if even a single drop of this monster's saliva touched them,
they would likely be reduced to a puddle of liquid in an instant.
“Dimo, come here, I'll lift you into the air!”
“We'll just fly away.”
Chu Chen immediately cast "Levitation," scooped up Dimo, and soared into the sky.
This monster was tricky, and he didn't want to engage in direct combat.
After all, he could fly, so there was no need to engage in a battle of wits with this creature.
Sure enough, as Chu Chen took to the skies,
the giant monster leaped in rage, seemingly furious.
It began to wield its serpent-like tentacles from behind, attempting to grab Chu Chen.
However, it couldn't reach him at all!
Seeing this, Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
While this monster was powerful, as long as it couldn't fly, it wouldn't pose much of a threat.
In fact, he could even leverage this advantage to directly obliterate this monster!
Thinking this, a confident smile gradually spread across Chu Chen's face.
He glanced at the monster below, now in a fit of rage,
and his right hand holding the staff began to move.
However, just as he was building up his power,
the monster below seemed to lose all patience,
suddenly growing a pair of grotesque and bloated fleshy wings from its back. It then began to flap them slowly.
As its wings flapped, powerful gusts of wind arose, and its colossal body slowly lifted off the ground.
“Damn, what is this thing?”
“It can actually fly!”
“Forget it, let's just run!”
Chu Chen was caught off guard by this sudden turn of events.
He immediately retracted his staff and began to flee with Dimo.
He poured a vast amount of magical energy into "Levitation," pushing it to its absolute limit.
The scenery around him blurred into a rapid blur, as his speed reached its peak.
However, before he could rejoice, he sensed a massive figure pursuing him from behind.
“It can fly, fine, but why is it so fast?”
Chu Chen was truly baffled!
He never imagined that this unprecedented monster would be so powerful.
Compared to it,
Wind Walker,踐踏者, and Rift Bird all seemed somewhat childish in comparison.
This creature's strength was undoubtedly far beyond any ordinary Rift creatures he'd encountered!
“Seems like things have taken a turn for the worse!”
“If that's the case, let's settle this!”
After flying for a full twenty minutes and failing to shake off the monster,
Chu Chen realized that if he didn't kill this creature, he wouldn't be able to escape.
So, he landed on the ground, set Dimo down, and prepared to face the monster head-on.
BOOM!
The ice surface trembled violently, and the monster landed beside them!
“Dimo, I'll keep it occupied from the air, you attack it from below!”
Chu Chen left behind a brief message before soaring into the sky again, unleashing various powerful magic attacks on the monster.
“Lightning Spear, go!”
Chu Chen brandished his staff, and a surge of magical energy quickly condensed into a dozen Lightning Spears in the air, which, imbued with the power of thunder, charged towards the giant!
The giant monster, however, didn't flinch or dodge,
its grotesque tentacles whipped around with incredible speed, shattering the incoming Lightning Spears one after another.
“What?!”
“Not even a scratch?”
Witnessing the monster effortlessly deflecting his attack,
Chu Chen was shocked.
Although he wasn't yet proficient with "Lightning Spear," its power was still quite formidable.
He had previously used this spell to pierce through hundreds of Rift creatures with a single strike.
Yet, it couldn't even break through this giant monster's defenses.
However, even though Chu Chen's attack failed,
it successfully drew its aggro.
The giant let out a furious roar,
then took flight from the ground, charging directly at Chu Chen.
Judging from its momentum, it seemed determined to ram Chu Chen into paste.
But at that moment, a brilliant and scorching beam of light, like a laser, shot towards its back!
BOOM!
The light beam was incredibly precise, striking the giant's wing with pinpoint accuracy.
The terrifying power of light erupted instantly, vaporizing its wing in an instant.
Rumbling!
A tremendous roar reverberated as the giant, deprived of its wings, plummeted from the sky, creating a large crater on the ice surface upon impact.
“Good job, Dimo!”
All of this transpired in a flash!
By the time Chu Chen regained his senses, the giant had already fallen.
“Dimo! Dimo! (Partner, I did my best! The rest is up to you!)”
Dimo's voice, filled with exhaustion,
was a testament to the fact that its previous attack, with all its might, had depleted its energy.
It understood that against such a foe, either they had to land a decisive blow or make a run for it.
But now, with no escape, they had no choice but to fight tooth and nail.
“Don't worry, Dimo!”
“It's finished!”
Chu Chen sensed Dimo's exhaustion,
knowing that the previous devastating attack was a desperate act by Dimo to create an opportunity.
Therefore, to not betray Dimo's efforts,
Chu Chen was prepared to unleash his full power!
In the air, Chu Chen's robe billowed without wind,
powerful magical energy flickered, flowing along his body like electricity.
A heavy aura emanated from his body, slightly distorting the surrounding space.
“Lightning Spear, condense!”
The same spell as before.
Yet, a completely different scene.
Instead of a dozen spears appearing simultaneously,
only one emerged.
A single Spear, nearly fifty meters long,
a spear of destruction, forged from the very essence of thunder, a bolt of annihilation!
This spear channeled almost all his magical energy,
the most potent attack spell he had ever cast!
As for its power...
The Lightning Spear slowly descended, like the ultimate judgment from heaven,
carrying an unparalleled might,
striking towards the giant, which had just staggered back from the crater.
Gazing at the fearsome, colossal thunder spear, the already heavily injured giant let out an anguished roar.
It sensed a palpable deathly aura emanating from the spear.
Driven by a desperate urge to survive, it tried to dodge,
but it was too late.
The spear of annihilation slammed down, and its boundless power began to cleanse the world!
BOOM!
Countless energy exploded outward,
creating a devastating shockwave!
The ice surface trembled relentlessly, shaken by this colossal force.
Moments later, the energy gradually subsided.
A hundred-meter-long crater abruptly appeared below.
And scattered within the crater, at a depth of about ten meters,
were several dismembered, charred remains, scattered across the ground.
