Chapter 957: Chapter 824: Battle of the Dream Beast (Part 2)
Outmatched and facing three enemies, the disparity in strength had become immense.
As the battle continued, Night’s body had already accumulated many wounds.
From beginning to end, Night chose hit-and-run tactics, constantly darting through the dense jungle, occasionally flying into the thick tree crowns before plunging down suddenly into the forest’s shadows, evading the joint pursuit of the three Dream Beasts.
“Hui~~~~~~~~~~”
The two Brown Dream Beasts jeered from behind Night, laughing at it for not daring to face them head-on. To evade and flee in such a manner, why bother coming to this island only to humiliate itself!
Night swept the Brown Dream Beast that made the laughing sound with an indifferent glance and did not respond. It continued to weave through the shadows of the forest, searching for the right opportunity to attack and escape unscathed.
These hit-and-run tactics were instilled by Chu Mu; facing an enemy significantly stronger than oneself, the only outcome of a direct confrontation was death!
Night’s advantage lay in its speed and stealth. As long as there were shadows, it could flutter gracefully. This also served to wear down the enemy’s patience, eventually revealing a fatal flaw!
Night was well aware that the more an enemy mocked during a battle, the less stable their temperament, making them easy to enrage and to lose patience.
Therefore, even though Night kept moving, in reality, it was closely monitoring the behavior of that Brown Dream Beast.
“Hui hui!!!!!!!!”
A cyan energy suddenly exploded ahead, and within that energy, lethal Wind Scythes radiated in all directions, chopping off the plants at their roots directly!!!
“Rumble rumble rumble rumble!!!!!!!”
Hundreds of trees crashed down, startling birds and beasts into flying frenzy.
Without the cover of the tree crowns, Night’s whereabouts would easily be exposed to the perception of the three Dream Beasts. The Wind Dream Beast had devastated a vast area of plants so fiercely, all to strip Night of any place to hide!!
At this moment, the two Brown Dream Beasts also let out excited screeches, for they had seen the cunning Black Dream Beast changing its route on the spur of the moment.
Now changign its course was already too late, for the Black Dream Beast had fallen within their attack range!
In an instant, ripples of a strange pattern flashed from the Dream Horns of the two Brown Dream Beasts. These ripples caused no harm to objects, but for living beings’ spirits, it was a form of extremely dominant devastation.
These twin spiritual devastations completely sealed off Night’s paths and then forcefully shook their way into Night’s Spiritual World.
“Hui!!!!!!!!!!!!”
A painful scream suddenly arose, echoing through the dense forest.
Hearing this scream, the Brown Dream Beast lost its patience to entangle with this Black Dream Beast, quickening its pace. As it rushed through the forest, its body gradually transformed into a brown blade, cutting across the space with a terrifying speed, intent on dealing Night the final blow.
“Swoosh!!!!!!!!”
Like a brown crescent moon, it sped past Night’s body, and at that moment, Night’s black silhouette burst apart…
Not a drop of blood, as if the reflection on the water had been shattered by a sudden ripple, Night’s figure broke apart eerily, then dissipated and vanished!
Night dream reflection!
The body that had taken the hit was entirely an illusory corporeal form reflected from a shadow by Night.
The realism of this illusory reflection was much more authentic than the illusions created by Ning’s Ice Mirror; it could even mimic the aura and the screams!
The Wind Dream Beast possessed its signature skill, True Dreamland, and Ye possessed its own killer move as well. Even the Wind Dream Beast might not be able to discern that it was facing a false shadow, let alone the impatient Brown Dream Beast!
“Huuuuu!!!!!”
Upon witnessing Ye’s figure shatter, the Wind Dream Beast immediately realized it was a trap and let out a warning cry to the Brown Dream Beast!
However, the warning came too late. Ye’s black pupils flickered beside the Brown Dream Beast, and between its delicate and beautiful Dream Horns, an invisible stiletto slowly materialized, carrying with it the dark shadow of terror. It shot forth from between the horns, accurately piercing the skull of the Brown Dream Beast!
“Huuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!”
This time, a genuine, piercing scream rose sharply, the voice belonging to the very Brown Dream Beast that had mocked Ye.
This powerful spiritual attack amplified pain and the fear of darkness immensely. The Brown Dream Beast, completely unguarded, suffered the blow, and its spirit and soul sustained extremely serious damage.
Yet, the attack did not cease. Ye’s mouth held a sharp black glow, and as the Brown Dream Beast cried out in agony, Ye sprayed it with the fierce light!
“Bang!!!!!!!!”
The forest exploded with a boom, black energy rampaging freely. The Brown Dream Beast managed to mount a feeble defense, but ultimately was blasted away, its body riddled with black wounds!
“Huu~~~~~~~~~~~~”
Seeing the Brown Dream Beast defeated, the Wind Dream Beast and another Brown Dream Beast became enraged. They immediately confined Ye within an area devoid of shadows, denying it any chance to escape.
“Huu~~~~~~~~” The Wind Dream Beast’s cyan pupils stared intently at Ye, conveying the message that it was the end of the line for Ye!
Ye stood there, appearing somewhat breathless. The release of several skills in succession had depleted much of its strength, and on top of that, the injuries sustained during its wanderings showed signs of fatigue.
But its black pupils still shone with spirit. It no longer chose to roam because it no longer had the energy to engage in such a war of attrition with its adversaries.
It had to defeat these two Dream Beasts!
“Huuuu!” The other Brown Dream Beast called out. It was telling Ye that if it left their Territory now, they would no longer pursue the matter.
As a Wandering Spirit, what it found hardest to accept wasn’t the constant wandering and having no fixed abode, but being expelled without recognition after finding a Demon Spirit House!
The battle was not yet decided, and Ye could not leave without a fight. It needed the Demon Spirit Aura of this island to become even more powerful!
Ye stood quietly. It lifted its head, eyes piercing through the dense woods, gazing at the crimson sunset…
The setting sun’s afterglow slowly withdrew from the forest, like light spilling out from a door, thinning as the day’s gate closed, eventually disappearing completely.
Nightfall descended, and amidst the ongoing battles, neither the spectating nor the combatant Demon Spirits realized the passage of time, nor did they notice the night’s quiet spread over the battlefield.
The scent of darkness, only the favored children of the night could detect; the shadow of the forest and the utter blackness were worlds apart. This darkness was like the wide-open skies where eagles could soar, the deep seas for Flood Dragons to tumble – the night gave Ye a stage on which to showcase its power to the fullest!!
In the previous battles, the three Brown Dream Beasts had always held an absolute advantage, constantly inflicting damage upon Ye.
But from the moment nightfall began, the battle that followed would be a solo performance by Ye!!
“Huuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!”
Ye’s call spread through the gloom. Its black silhouette slowly merged into the dark curtain, silent as a whisper, with only a pair of deep, unyielding eyes coolly observing its bewildered enemy!
