Chapter 1165: Chapter 1163: Tears Flowing
The fight was inevitable, Fu Qian had never doubted that.
Personality determines destiny: Goto Hi’s life philosophy fundamentally mirrored that of Captain Lann.
Just as Lann would always be ready to kill himself under any circumstances, the moment Fu Qian reappeared, regardless of the interaction, her ultimate action would always be one: to violently try to take him as her vessel.
The only thing Fu Qian had to strive for was to garner as many gains as possible before that ultimate point.
As of now, the situation was almost under control—except for the disgusting level of the attack.
Did all these people who mingle at sea like to enchant with saliva?
Encased in a wrapping that was soft but extremely tough, what Fu Qian cared about the most was the slimy surface, which made him deeply frown.
Fu Qian seldom used ’kaleidoscopic’ to describe a smell, but it was truly apt here.
Clearly not some strong acid or anesthetic liquid, the substance flowing over his body was the essence of the Sea of Ashes, concentrated to the finest degree, weaving together into a barrier enveloping his whole body.
Inside the barrier, Fu Qian felt every concept in his body, from top to bottom, rapidly mixing together.
Be it organs or the senses of sight and hearing produced by them, all were quickly entangling with each other.
The most direct effect was that even Fu Qian himself wasn’t sure what would emerge if he now unleashed a great move with thousands of tentacles.
No wonder Nini Anni chose to ruin her own face like that—manually disabling some features might actually stabilize the will somewhat.
Of course, that wouldn’t be Fu Qian’s style.
"How daring!"
Fu Qian wasn’t sure which of the senses blurted out this roar, but the next moment, his body enclosed within the barrier was swelling abruptly.
Brilliant Tyrant initiated.
To combat contamination? The Tyrant is the contamination itself!
...
"The aura of the Abyss? You do know quite a few tricks!"
Merely expanding to a little over two meters obviously wasn’t enough to tear through the tongue’s wrapping, but it successfully provoked Goto Hi’s exclamation.
"And what do you know?"
Even his voice turned deep, Fu Qian didn’t rush to attack.
"I don’t need to!"
Judging from Goto Hi’s reaction, these words were clearly irritating.
In an instant, Fu Qian realized that the slimy surface of the barrier was adorned with an abundance of magnificence.
Countless beads forming a tail seemed to be brewing within.
Huh? An all-in-one catching and spawning machine?
Fu Qian understood the nature of this change quite thoroughly.
Under restraint, the might of the Tyrant was likewise inversely twisting, the situation had originally fallen into a deadlock of mutual poisoning.
This new transformation was clearly ready to leverage the chaos of the body to brutally merge the Mermaid with himself.
"Such reckless presumption, such pompous arrogance!"
This increasingly disrespectful offense made Fu Qian no longer conceal his imperial might.
"It’s time to teach you a lesson!"
Without any warning, a neat gash mysteriously appeared on the resilient tongue’s surface and slowly extended, stirring an uncontrollable upheaval.
However, as the favored tactic of a Divine Envoy, it wouldn’t be so easy to deal with.
The flesh on that elongated giant tongue was flowing like a stream.
The next moment, along the tongue, the wound streamed toward the frog’s enormous body.
Such miraculous measures also made Goto Hi’s intent quite clear—never relinquish the binding, turn all killer moves into a purely mutual destruction fight, and maximize the exploitation of the Ranking advantage.
"So you’ve completely lost your skills, and now only know how to pile up rotting flesh, a mere wretch? And you still delude yourself thinking you can defile me with it!"
Fu Qian clearly felt this change, yet the Tyrant’s Momentum was not reduced in the slightest.
"I bloom amidst slaughter, as the scars of bygone days!"
One after another...
With this solemn voice, the crisscrossing scars actually made the giant tongue’s surface spray blood like petals.
Not just that, the glittering majesty of the light within the barrier was sliced into fragments like physical entities, unable to converge into even a single "egg".
"Impossible!"
The flowing wounds, like waves in a brook, quickly converged on the frog’s massive body, eliciting an uncontrollable exclamation of shock from Goto Hi.
"You’re merely a Demigod, how could you possibly do this!"
"Why not, haven’t you also muddled through to this extent?"
Fu Qian’s merciless retort was met with seconds of dead silence.
"Fine, if you want to commit suicide so badly, it’ll save me some effort."
"Competing in attrition with a Divine Envoy, even in the Sea of Ashes... Truly, the more foolish ones are, the luckier they get. You’re just like that guy Stella, a waste of blessings!"
By the time she spoke again, Goto Hi’s voice, now doubly annoyed, clearly expressed her dissatisfaction with the bias of the warehouse.
Correspondingly, there was a wildly surging torrent of blood and flesh on the tongue.
The cocoon that confined Fu Qian swelled several times in an instant.
Thus, it is said that the joys and sorrows of humanity are not shared.
To Goto Hi’s jealousy and envy, Fu Qian merely scoffed.
"As destined by heaven, how could you all compare to me!"
With that statement, spikes and sharp teeth emerged one after another on Fu Qian’s body, already covered in cuts and wounds, and they sliced into the slimy surface enveloping him.
Dimensional Poison, he had already shown its effect to the opponent, and now it was time for a live demonstration.
"Did you inflict those wounds on yourself?"
Fu Qian, clad as if in bear hunting gear, instantly brought a massive shock.
The barrier trapping his body showed uncontrollable trembling, as did Goto Hi’s voice.
Clearly, she recognized this as a technique to make the opponent’s wounds difficult to heal but utterly failed to understand why the technique would appear on the opponent himself.
However, even so, after the agitation, the giant tongue showed no signs of giving up and instead began to contract crazily inward.
Sharp spikes even appeared within the flesh, indifferently tearing both parties’ flesh apart.
Certainly not willing to give up the situation, Goto Hi resolutely pushed in more stakes and chose to accelerate the attrition.
Tendril Barrage Devastator!
In return, she met a reaction force that was incomparably fervent.
Truly like fireworks blooming, blasting in all directions.
Tentacles, spikes, serpents, and bone chains... hundreds of unimaginable Creations tore through all obstacles in front of them.
And their common feature was the rows of sharp teeth on their surfaces.
The shattered flesh flowing back into the frog’s body scattered all that could be considered intact like routed soldiers.
In the midst of intense trembling, an eerie eyeball that had detached in time transformed into a streak of light, rapidly fleeing outward.
However, in the next moment, a long whip covered in dark red thorns lashed out and struck it down from the air.
"Quite brave."
With sharp teeth covering his wounds, Fu Qian held the thorny whip, brandishing it commandingly.
"Daring to test my mighty power with your own flesh."
