RNP Chapter 60: The Second Move
Chapter 60: The Second Move
The expected explosion did not occur inside the Golden Horned Beast's body.
There was only a dull, loud bang, as if it exploded directly in one's soul.
"Thump—!"
Thor's blade strike and Hong's spear intent slammed into the transparent primordial core.
However, the seemingly fragile sphere of light only had a tiny, insignificant mark on its surface.
The next moment, a terrifying recoil force erupted from the surface of the primordial core!
"puff!"
Thor, who was hit first, didn't even have time to react. His chest collapsed instantly, and his body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the thick flesh and blood of his back cavity.
Hong was in slightly better condition. At the moment the counterforce erupted, he managed to reverse part of the impact by relying on his ultimate control over the domain, but he was still blasted away and crashed into flesh and blood.
The two souls, whose embers were already flickering like candles in the wind, were violently extinguished by this attack, almost going out on the spot.
outside world.
over the Pacific Ocean.
The massive body of the golden-horned behemoth trembled violently.
A chaotic energy shockwave spread wildly in all directions from its body. The golden primal energy beams that it had previously thrust into its body as a self-inflicted attack seemed to lose control at this moment, instantly dissipating into nothingness.
Its massive body tumbled violently over the Pacific Ocean, each roll generating towering waves thousands of meters high.
Inside the cavity.
Hong and Thor struggled to slide down from the flesh and blood.
"Cough...cough cough...what the hell is this...?"
Thor's voice was hoarse. He knelt on one knee, mouthfuls of blood mixed with pieces of internal organs gushing from his mouth, his eyes filled with resentment and despair.
"This...can't be broken?"
Hong's face was ashen, and the hand gripping the black spear was trembling uncontrollably. The excruciating pain from burning his soul, mixed with the tearing sensation of his body crumbling inch by inch, made his vision blur and he almost fainted on the spot.
But his eyes remained sharp.
He strained to stay upright, staring intently at the golden core that had only left a trace.
After a brief moment of panic, the golden-horned behemoth immediately realized that the two "insects" that had burrowed into its body were already at their last gasp.
The fighting instincts of those with the pinnacle of cosmic bloodlines made the most correct judgment at this moment.
It stopped all futile struggles and wound healing.
The transparent ball of light trembled, about to burrow into the flesh and blood and escape.
Upon seeing this, Hong immediately activated the sixth layer of light domain, confining the golden-horned behemoth's core to its original position.
Seeing that it could not transfer the original core, the Golden Horned Beast poured all its will and the little remaining primal energy into the original core to reinforce and defend the original core and its soul!
The terrifying pressure inside the cavity lessened slightly.
But the golden primordial core floating in the center shone with an unprecedented brilliance. The pressure it emitted was even stronger than before, making it incredibly difficult for the already weakened Hong and Thor to even get close.
Waves of weakness surged from the deepest part of their bodies.
The power they gained by burning their souls was rapidly dissipating. Blood vessels beneath their skin began to burst one by one, and the two men, like demons from hell, were covered in crimson blood.
Their life force was like a candle being blown out by a strong wind, and could be extinguished at any moment.
Thor looked at the primordial core, so close yet seemingly so far away, and finally collapsed to the ground, unable to hold on any longer.
A hint of despair flashed in his eyes.
"Brother Hong...it seems...we two brothers are really going to die here today..."
However, Hong ignored him.
He simply raised his head, his gaze seemingly able to penetrate the layers of flesh and fascia, looking towards the sky outside.
He is waiting.
……
outside world.
The raging energy storm finally began to gradually subside, and the sky and sea were slowly returning to their original colors.
From afar, Luo Feng kept his mental powers focused on the battlefield.
When Luo Feng heard the golden-horned beast's mournful yet terrified roar and sensed its life force rapidly declining at an unprecedented rate, a glimmer of hope had just risen in his heart.
He was preparing to rush over and check the situation without hesitation.
Just then, Babata's shrill cry rang out in his mind.
"Luo Feng! Luo Feng! Quick! A consciousness, a very, very faint consciousness, is coming towards you!"
"This aura of consciousness... it's Hong! It's Hong!"
Luo Feng's whole body trembled violently.
He immediately stopped his forward momentum and, disregarding everything, extended all his mental energy towards the core of the battlefield without reservation, like an invisible net cast into that raging ocean of energy.
Finally, just as his mental power was about to reach its limit, he caught a wisp of consciousness fluctuation that seemed ready to dissipate in the energy storm at any moment.
That consciousness was very weak and intermittent.
"When the energy storm... weakens..."
"Come quickly!"
"This is...the only chance!"
Hong's voice, like a thunderclap, exploded in Luo Feng's mind.
The only chance!
Luo Feng understood instantly.
Soul Secrets!
The museum owner and Thor, with their burning souls and their bodies, created a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for themselves!
Now it's his turn!
"Babata! Analyze immediately! What are the chances of success if I rush over now!" Luo Feng roared in his heart.
"There's no chance of success! Luo Feng! Are you crazy?!"
Babata screamed wildly, his voice filled with shock.
"Although the Golden Horned Beast is severely injured, its outer defenses and internal environment are far beyond what a planetary-level being like you can withstand! You wouldn't even get to the wound before being instantly crushed into a pile of minced meat by the residual energy field and invisible pressure surrounding its body!"
"This is an opportunity the museum owner risked his life for!"
Luo Feng's eyes were bloodshot, and his jaw was clenched.
"I cannot let him down! Execute my orders! Immediately calculate the shortest route of attack; target: the Golden Horned Beast's wound!"
"You...you're a madman! You're a complete and utter madman!"
Although Babata was screaming, its voice carried a hint of a sob, but it still immediately began to carry out Luo Feng's instructions.
A three-dimensional route map of the advance, composed of countless data streams, was clearly imprinted in Luo Feng's mind.
……
Inside the Golden Horned Beast.
Seeing Hong's confident demeanor, Thor was taken aback for a moment, then struggled to ask, "Brother Hong, you...you don't have a backup plan, do you?"
Hong smiled weakly, turned his head to look at Thor, and his gaze seemed to pierce through endless space as he saw the young man rushing towards them.
"I said...we won't lose!"
He hadn't finished speaking.
outside world.
Luo Feng had already stepped onto the Sky Shuttle, his whole body transforming into a dazzling silver stream of light, trailing a torrent of golden blades behind him. With a fearless attitude, he tore through the sky and charged straight toward the behemoth that was still rolling and struggling in the Pacific Ocean!
A colossal creature tumbling and struggling!
