Chapter 1001 – Divine Blood’s Might

“That’s it?” Umbra Talon raised an eyebrow when he saw Juggernaut leaving after giving Shi Feng a reminder. Then, he turned to Shi Feng and whispered jokingly, “It seems none of these people think highly of you, Guild Leader Black Flame.”

Zero Wing was a Guild that commanded two sixth-floor experts. Under normal circumstances, even royal power executives like Umbra Talon wouldn’t dare to disregard Zero Wing. The powers based in the human race’s Greater God’s Domain should treat Zero Wing with even more respect, considering that there were only a handful of sixth-floor experts in the human race’s Greater God’s Domain.

While Juggernaut’s Strength might rival that of Primordial Gods, he was still a fifth-floor expert. If he faced any sixth-floor expert with similar equipment standards, he would suffer a miserable defeat. Zero Wing also had access to Divine Blood, a potion that could briefly let a sixth-floor expert of Phoenix Rain’s caliber gain a Primordial God’s Basic Attributes.

“Isn’t this better? This will save us from becoming a thorn in the various powers’ eyes during the raid,” Shi Feng said nonchalantly.

The forces the various powers committed to the Undying Mother raid far exceeded his expectations. He never expected even Divine Set experts to show up. Evidently, the various powers were dead set on slaying the Undying Mother.

The current Zero Wing might be able to face an apex or royal power one-on-one, but it would be doomed in a fight against multiple apex and royal powers. After all, Divine Set experts were no trivial matter. They were the strongest combatants of an entire race. Even during the war between the Holy Race and the human race in his previous life, Divine Set experts were regarded as strategic combatants. If a Divine Set expert were to face a Taboo Boss alone, they could confront it without fear.

If multiple Divine Set experts joined hands, they might even be able to kill an existence like the Undying Mother.

The various powers might be competitors in the crusade against the Undying Mother, but if an overly strong competitor were to appear, they would definitely unite to eliminate this threat first. Hence, the various powers ignoring Zero Wing was great news for Zero Wing.

As Shi Feng and Umbra Talon chatted, experts from the Holy Race and the Crystallian race arrived at the center of the battlefield, one after another.

Six alien royal powers had come for the Undying Mother. On the Holy Race’s side were the Thunder Empire, the Sun Dynasty, Evil Nature, and Sovereign Mark. On the Crystallian race’s side were Ninth Street and Five Heavenly Staves. These six royal powers brought over 20,000 Level 240-plus elite experts.

Additionally, a Level 245 player equipped with a Divine Set led each of these six royal powers’ forces. These army commanders’ presence was not much weaker than Juggernaut’s.

Besides the six alien royal powers, the Seven Luminaries Alliance, the Eternal Chamber of Commerce, and Demon’s Gate also had a Divine Set expert commanding their forces. As soon as the six alien royal powers arrived, the Divine Set experts of these apex and royal powers tacitly took on the role of distracting the Undying Mother’s amorphous hands. At the same time, their forces focused on damaging the appendages.

Nine Divine Set experts, several dozen Level 245 experts fully equipped with Divine Artifacts, and tens of thousands of Level 240-plus elite experts fought against the Undying Mother. Each amorphous hand had about a hundred Level 240-plus, Tier 6 elite experts attacking it. Although these experts could only dish out a pitiful several million DPS, together they still dealt several hundred million DPS. As a result, the HP of the amorphous hands continuously decreased over time.

Of course, the Undying Mother was no pushover. Aside from operating independently, the Undying Mother’s amorphous hands could coordinate their attacks. When a dozen amorphous hands struck together, they could nearly one-shot Level 245 experts fully equipped with Divine Artifacts and obliterate any Level 240-plus elite experts within their range.

After just a minute into the battle, the three races had already lost several hundred elite experts. In return, the Undying Mother’s amorphous hands lost over 1% of their HPs. Although the losses the three races suffered were tragic, it was only a matter of time before they eliminated the Undying Mother’s amorphous hands.

“What a terrifying monster! Even against such an incredible lineup, the Undying Mother can still kill so many elite experts,” Kowloon Demon exclaimed, marveling at the Undying Mother’s strength as he fought an amorphous hand at the edge of the battlefield.

Although it was understandable for a Level 245 Taboo Boss to be strong, the Undying Mother was going up against nine Level 245-plus Divine Set users. Each Divine Set user could exhibit strength rivaling that of Primordial Gods and fight the Undying Mother head-on without losing any ground.

Honestly, Kowloon Demon had not expected these Level 245-plus Divine Set users to be so strong. After seeing their performance, he felt that, even as a sixth-floor expert equipped with a Level 245 Taboo Legendary Equipment Set, escape would be his only option if he faced one of them in a one-on-one fight. If he were to fight two or more simultaneously, he would face certain death.

Yet, despite fighting nine Level 245-plus Divine Set users, the Undying Mother still had the leeway to thin the numbers of the players attacking it. Kowloon Demon dared not imagine the result if Dragon’s Crown, Silver Will, and Zero Wing were the only ones to face the Undying Mother.

“The Undying Mother is indeed stronger than rumored. If not for the various powers reaching a tacit agreement after multiple open and secret struggles, we might not get to see the Undying Mother’s death today,” Shi Feng said, secretly celebrating as he watched the three races’ powers work together to raid the Undying Mother.

The Undying Mother’s strength exceeded his expectations. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that killing the 14th-ranked Taboo Boss with just the forces of a single power was impossible.

The Undying Mother could exhibit strength rivaling that of Primordial Gods when it attacked with a dozen of its amorphous hands. Although it couldn’t replicate such combination attacks with all its amorphous hands, it could still simultaneously execute about a dozen such combination attacks. This was equivalent to fighting a dozen monsters that rivaled Primordial Gods. No power in existence could defeat such an opponent alone.

Only thanks to the joint effort and sacrifices of the six alien royal powers and three human apex powers could they steadily reduce the HP of the Undying Mother’s 1,000-plus amorphous hands. Otherwise, the Undying Mother would be invincible.

After attacking for over 20 minutes while disregarding their casualties, the three races’ powers finally reduced the amorphous hands’ HP to 20%. It was at this moment that the Undying Mother finally felt the threat of death.

Before anyone could react, the Undying Mother’s amorphous hands rapidly merged, each merger resulting in a stronger amorphous hand. At the same time, the Undying Mother’s main body, the monster with a giant mouth, shrank in size. Its life aura also weakened considerably.

“Not good! The Undying Mother’s getting desperate!” Juggernaut’s expression changed at the sight of the amorphous hands merging. “Everyone, split up!”

In less than two seconds, only 32 of the Undying Mother’s amorphous hands remained on the battlefield. These amorphous hands were no longer translucent, having taken on a dark gray hue. Their presence alone caused the surrounding space to shatter and mend itself repeatedly, as if unable to withstand their existence.

Before anyone could act on Juggernaut’s command, one of these dark gray amorphous hands lashed out at the Seven Luminaries Alliance’s army.

“I won’t let you!”

Juggernaut roared and swung his war axe, the weapon transforming into a streak of light that struck the oncoming amorphous hand. This attack was a fusion between one of his self-developed Advanced Gold Combat Techniques, Splitting Heaven, and the Profound Skill of his Weeping Earth Set, Earth Shatterer. Earth Shatterer could provide an unrestricted 300% increase to his Strength. When paired with Splitting Heaven, it led to the creation of his strongest attack.

Boom!

When the light dissipated, although Juggernaut was forced several steps back, he ultimately stopped the amorphous hand’s attack. However, by this time, the other 31 amorphous hands had already risen into the air, ready to smash down on the players before them. This scene struck despair into the hearts of players in the battlefield.

“Rain, do it!” When Shi Feng saw this scene, he promptly commanded Phoenix Rain to attack the Undying Mother with all her might.

In response, Phoenix Rain drank the bottle of Divine Blood in her hand without hesitation. The moment she drank it, everyone present—including the Undying Mother—froze and turned to her.

“A Primordial God?”
