Chapter 340: The Powerful Poison Scorpion Beast Lord!

Chapter 340: The Powerful Poison Scorpion Beast Lord!

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Bella exerted all her strength just to suppress the toxin.

After returning to normal state, she coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.

Her face still bore a faint bluish-black hue.

Her condition was equally dire.

Bella spoke weakly: "I underestimated the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord's strength; it has grown stronger again."

Li Wei looked at her and asked: "How are you now?"

Bella replied: "Still not dead yet."

"Cough, cough, cough..."

She spat out more blood, wiping the traces from the corner of her mouth.

She gave a bitter smile, "But I can't help you anymore."

Li Wei said: "Leave the rest to me."

He strode towards the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord.

Lilith followed in his footsteps.

"I'll help you."

The shadows beneath Lilith's feet spread out.

She summoned the Shadow Legion.

Countless shadow creatures emerged from under her feet, surging towards the direction of the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord.

The shadow creatures took the brunt, colliding with the poison scorpions first.

They restrained most of the poison scorpions, buying Li Wei the opportunity to approach the Beast Lord.

The shadow creatures were not powerful; many were only first or second tier.

However, relying on their ability to ignore physical attacks, restraining the poison scorpions was enough.

The Poison Scorpion Beast Lord turned to look at Li Wei and Lilith.

Fury flashed in its eyes.

It hated these damned humans to the core.

Tolerating them encroaching on its territory was one thing.

But daring to slaughter its subjects and descendants within its own domain?

It was simply seeking death!

A path to destruction!

The Poison Scorpion Beast Lord stepped forward, striding towards Li Wei.

Squish!

Crushing several shadow creatures that had come too close.

The Poison Scorpion Beast Lord was covered in deadly poison; even the shadow creatures could be poisoned to death by it.

Shadow creatures near the Beast Lord kept dying.

Lilith watched the shadow creatures walk to their deaths calmly.

Her heart remained utterly undisturbed.

Under her control, the Shadow Domain spread to the feet of the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord.

Countless shadow tentacles extended from the Shadow Domain, wrapping around the Beast Lord's body.

Like countless octopuses in the shadows extending tentacles, trying to drag the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord into the Shadow Domain.

The Poison Scorpion Beast Lord easily snapped the shadow tentacles.

Yet it was momentarily hindered in its movement by the shadow tentacles, obscuring its vision.

Seizing the chance, Li Wei summoned the Blade of Judgment.

Whoosh!

The Blade of Judgment locked onto the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord and shot forth at extreme speed.

Once locked onto, the Beast Lord instinctively sensed the danger of death.

It unleashed a mighty aura from its entire body.

Purple toxic energy surged outward, forming an energy shell around it.

The Blade of Judgment struck the Beast Lord's energy shell.

The anti-magic inscription carved by Valen on the Blade of Judgment played a crucial role.

The Blade of Judgment sliced through the Beast Lord's energy shell as easily as a hot knife through butter.

The Beast Lord's tail swept across, striking the side of the Blade of Judgment and knocking it flying.

Li Wei's gaze sharpened, revealing a look of surprise.

So close; the Blade of Judgment could have killed the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord.

Unexpectedly, its reaction was so swift, its attack so precise.

Just now, if its tail had hit the blade's edge, it would already be dead.

The Blade of Judgment's edge was inscribed with sharpness and keenness runes.

Capable of easily piercing armor.

The Beast Lord's sturdy carapace was fragile before the Blade of Judgment.

Li Wei recalled the Blade of Judgment.

The Blade of Judgment hovered above his palm.

Gazing at the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord, he knew relying solely on the Blade's automatic locking attack couldn't defeat the peak sixth-tier Beast Lord.

He had to bring out something substantial.

Swish swish swish!

Squish!

The piercing sound of breaking wind came.

A fourth-tier Poison Scorpion approached Li Wei, its scorpion tail tipped with deadly poison spikes bursting forth with astonishing speed to strike Li Wei's back.

Boom!

The poison scorpion was launched high into the air by a surge of shadow energy gushing from underground.

Countless sharp shadow spikes pierced into the poison scorpion's body like knives.

In an instant, piercing through its body, the poison scorpion was shattered into fragments.

Li Wei turned his head to glance back at Lilith.

Lilith spoke, "Leave the other Poison Scorpions to me; you focus solely on the Poison Scorpion Lord."

Li Wei nodded, turning his gaze back toward the Poison Scorpion Lord.

Lilith's strength had taken him somewhat by surprise.

It seemed that during his stay in the Elemental Tower, Haros had helped excavate much of Lilith's potential.

Li Wei had seen Lilith's past experiences within his dreams.

He knew there lay hidden within her a vastly immense power.

Yet, in the past, she found it hard to command such power.

Whether it was Liliah or Lilith, neither was the original master of this power.

The master of that power was a black cat.

Li Wei was also unclear about the origin of the black cat.

Of course, what he saw in the dream might have been fabricated as well.

Dreams are inherently true and false; before verification, they cannot be trusted.

That Lilith possessed a powerful force within her body was beyond doubt.

What required skepticism was the source of this power.

Li Wei focused his attention, readying himself against the Poison Scorpion Lord.

The Poison Scorpion Lord saw that the thing posing a grave threat just now came from Li Wei.

Without hesitation, it launched its most ferocious attack against him.

Purple toxic energy shot toward Li Wei's chest.

This move had severely wounded Bella previously.

But Li Wei did not dodge or evade.

Boom!

The purple toxic energy struck Li Wei, bursting open and swallowing his figure.

A look of smugness emerged in the Poison Scorpion Lord's eyes.

Whoever was hit by this move of mine would surely perish!

Bella was only dragging on; without an antidote, she would die sooner or later.

Amidst his triumph, the Poison Scorpion Lord let its guard down slightly.

Suddenly, it sensed a danger drawing near.

Glancing upward, it saw a blue fireball descending from the heavens.

The Poison Scorpion Lord froze, seeing Li Wei appear suspended in mid-air.

What was that thing it had just struck?

The glow of the purple toxic energy faded away.

Li Wei's phantom gradually dissolved into the air.

From the start, Li Wei had never deployed his true form.

Wielding the Blade of Judgment required no personal involvement; an illusion sufficed.

The Poison Scorpion Lord was confounded by the spectacle before it.

It soon snapped out of it, launching an attack toward the airborne Li Wei.

Although the falling blue fireball brought a sense of threat, it was insufficient to endanger its life.

The Poison Scorpion Lord grew even more wary of the Blade of Judgment in Li Wei's hand.

Thus, it chose to withstand a strike from the blue fireball first to kill Li Wei.

Whoosh!

Hoo!

Li Wei flew to dodge the Poison Scorpion Lord's assault.

The attack was too swift; he could not fully evade, and his arm was grazed.

Creak creak creak!

Instantly, over thirty layers of his invisible armor shattered.

The power of the attack was utterly astonishing.

Furthermore, the purple toxic energy continued to corrode the invisible armor.

The invisible armor was persistently damaged.

Ultimately, fifty-two layers shattered before all the purple toxic energy was exhausted.

The blue fireball also crashed down upon the Poison Scorpion Lord.

Boom!

The Poison Scorpion Lord erected an energy shield, caring nothing for the explosion's force.

At the moment of explosion, the Poison Scorpion Lord suddenly felt the threat level of the blue fireball surge instantly.

Reaching a level sufficient to kill itself!
