Chapter 339 The Trial Of The Holy Beasts (Part-4)



Like in the earlier levels, the invisible dome with 100 times the gravitational pressure had made its appearance to trap the beast emperor. However, it didn't appear to be that effective against this opponent when compared to the previous one.

Bi'an managed to resist the pressure and kept moving forward albeit at a slow pace. As for the location, it appeared to be plain grassland surrounded by a forest.

Why is there such a setting? Neither Mark cares nor will anyone explain it to him. So, it is mysterious for the time being.

Anyways, back to the battle, after leaping back and landing on the ground, Mark summoned his lightning clone once again to deal with the opponent.

However, this time, the lightning clone couldn't gain any advantage against the dragon tiger. Perhaps, if it was an android like Alina and Allen, it would have been different. Alas, the lightning clone was just a skill and all of its attacks were pretty much straightforward.

The lightning clone charged forward and threw a punch at its target. Due to the slow movements, Bi'an got hit by the punch but its defense appeared to be quite stronger and it barely bruises one of its dragon scales.

*Grrr*

Bi'an growled in anger and opened its mouth to breathe out powerful flames, burning the clone and the cracks started forming all over its body.

As the clone cannot receive any pain either, it didn't care about the state of its body and proceeded to attack the dragon tiger at a close range. It went for the neck where the dragon scales weren't present.

Bi'an was in the middle of trying to turn its enemy into ash and it, unfortunately, didn't have the time to dodge the attack. If anything, it increased the intensity of the dragon fire so that the enemy will die before it gets injured.

The lightning clone's hand pierced through the beast emperor's neck.

*Scraaaa*

Bi'an's flames were stopped and the blood started to trickle down its neck, earning a satisfactory nod from Mark.

However, in the next second, the beast let out a sonic scream to push the clone away before proceeding to heal itself. Even Mark was also affected by it, but thanks to his suit's resistance capabilities (9.0 resist stat), he managed to defend against it just by tightly closing his ears and moving away.

Meanwhile, the lightning clone used friction between its feet and the ground to not get pushed for more than a few meters. It quickly charged forward and attacked the dragon tiger that was still in the middle of healing.

Like the previous battles, Mark watched it as a spectator for more than a minute until his ether energy was down by more than two-thirds and the clone was at a complete advantage. However, at the same time, it was also on the verge of getting destroyed with its body full of cracks from head to toe.

Upon remembering the cooldown period of 12 hours in case it destructs, Mark wondered whether he should intervene or not.

"What do I do? Surely, this monster isn't going to be the last one I have to face. And who knows, how strong the next is going to be. I will have to depend on the lightning clone for now. But, it was also winning. Shouldn't it be better if I let it continue to fight? I still have a lot of ether energy left to use."

After much contemplation, he decided to wait as Bi'an's natural healing powers weren't able to catch up with the rate of injuries inflicted upon its body.

Ten more seconds later, the clone ducked its claws and slid on the ground, reaching below its body before giving a powerful punch to its inner side. Its ribs were cracked.

The beast's body flew up in the air for a few meters before the gravitational force dragged it down.

*Thud*

It fell on the ground heavily and that collision broke its ribs completely.

As Bi'an motionlessly lay on the ground for a few seconds, the lightning clone tried to take advantage of it and raised his hand. It started to vibrate very fast and didn't miss Mark's enhanced vision either.

"What is that blurring?" He wondered out loud in surprise. This was the first time he saw the clone use something like this but unfortunately for him, at the moment, the system isn't online to give him the answers he needs.

"Whatever the case, I will just watch for now. Answers can be found later on." Mark put aside his curiosity and continued to be a spectator.

With a vibrating hand, the lightning clone proceeded to place it on the beast's neck to slice its head completely and effectively end its life.

It was at that moment that Bi'an slightly raised its head with a serious look on its face. Suddenly, its expression changed as its mouth widened.

"What the…" Mark took a step back in surprise, "is it smiling?"

So far, in this trial, he saw nothing but anger from the beasts. It is the first time he saw a beast smiling and that smile was quite similar to the one he often finds on Tishanan before he acted like he was sick and doesn't want to drink milk.

In that instant, Mark felt like the beast was trying act to set a trap for the clone. He wanted to warn the clone and order it to move away but there wasn't enough time to do that.

Before he could even send his thoughts to the clone through their telepathic connection, the beast had already made it move.

As the clone's vibrating hand reached the edge of its neck, Bi'an's body turned into some kind of green smoke that enveloped its target. Soon, the clone was trapped by a ball filled with a gaseous substance.

Mark didn't even get enough time to react to the situation and everything just gets destroyed with the release of nearly a billion joules of energy. "The fuck…" He screams out loud and hurried to unleash the Exo suit's nullification.

But, before he even tries it, the energy just passes through his body and proceeds to destroy the surroundings. Mark was left completely unharmed and this led him to an assumption that this energy was actually released by the lightning clone which he was immune to the damage.

Staring at the beast spark that was left behind by Bi'an, Mark mumbled, "I guess it did something to the clone and kill it, eventually leading to its energy release. But, that smile on its face was quite weird. Either there is something that I have yet to understand or the creator was just a strange fellow. Whatever the case, I need to get out of here fast."

Mark proceeded to walk forward and absorb the energy from the beast spark. In half a minute, he recovered all of his ether energy and went on to step inside the portal, returning to the stairway.

However, this time, he didn't step on the next one right away. He observed the stairway for a while, falling into deep thoughts once again.

"There are six steps to the door. So, that means six levels. Judging by the battles so far, the next one would be two 9-circle realm beast emperors. Just one was enough trouble and now, there will be two? Moreover, I need to face them without my lightning clone. How should I proceed now?"
