Chapter 1499: Chapter 1499
Du You’s speed and that of the enemy were nearly identical, as none of them possessed flying skills, so the exhibited speeds were quite similar. However, the Desert Death God was after all injured, hence there was a substantial disadvantage in speed.
Du You’s form flickered, continuously dodging the enemy’s attacks and creating distance between them.
This melee-focused Desert Death God could only constantly endure the attacks of the Shadow Spirit Light Balls. The existing injuries on its body were directly shattered by the Shadow Spirit Light Balls, resulting in increasingly severe injuries.
One day later, the power of the Desert Death God began to weaken, and its movements for attack and defense were becoming noticeably slower.
"Wait, we can talk," the Desert Death God shouted loudly.
At this moment, Du You became vigilant. He remembered just how cunning this fellow was.
As a native creature of the Desert Death God, the Death Scorpion, its most powerful tactic was a mutually destructive approach. Du You, while intensifying his attacks, also carefully watched every movement of the opponent, not exchanging a single word with it.
"Damn it, you’re forcing my hand," a murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the Desert Death God. Suddenly, its aura weakened dramatically. In that moment, Du You had already summoned several large Shadow Spirit Light Balls to encase himself.
The next instant, a tail appeared behind the Desert Death God, the tail burning with a flame familiar to Du You. It was the special flame glow that emanated every time the Death Scorpion used Death Raid.
As soon as the tail appeared, it reached Du You’s face. The next moment, the tail incredibly hit the Shadow Spirit Light Balls summoned by Du You. Du You quickly moved back, but did not feel a very powerful attack.
The next moment, the Light Balls shattered, and a deadly poison filled the air. The poison fell directly onto the desert, forming a peculiar lake of poison on the ground, which probably would remain that way forever.
"How could this be, how did you know about my attack?" the Desert Death God’s face drastically changed.
Originally, it was with this move that the Desert Death God was able to kill the mighty Sea God and severely injure the mighty Sky God. Eventually, even its old rival, the Nature God, fell victim to it. Otherwise, it would not have been sealed but would have died on the spot. But how did its opponent know about its killer move and even summoned the Light Balls immediately to block it.
If the opponent had been slightly slower, this overwhelming attack would definitely not have been something they could dodge.
Similarly, because the attack was too quick, once released, even the Desert Death God itself couldn’t control it and could only watch helplessly as the venom was injected into the Light Ball, wasting its power.
Having just come out of the sealing, it was in a weakened state. Now this attack was the only one it could release; if it attacked again, it would not need others to kill it, it would die from exhaustion itself.
But, Du You would never give the Desert Death God a second chance to attack. After creating distance, the Shadow Spirit Light Balls frantically attacked. Du You’s Dark Yuan Power was hardly consumed, but the Divine Power of the opponent was nearly exhausted.
Through a series of attacks, the Desert Death God tried several times to get close to Du You, even attempting mutual destruction, but Du You didn’t give it the chance. Finally, seizing an opportunity, a series of attacks from the Shadow Spirit Light Balls completely dispersed the Divine Power of the Desert Death God. The next moment, a tiny Light Ball pierced through the chest of the Desert Death God. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵
During the battle, Du You had already discovered that the Divine Rank of the opponent was located right there.
Divine Rank was struck out, and a Light Ball encapsulated the Divine Rank to prevent the enemy from escaping; one enemy was entirely eliminated.
Next, the body of the Desert Death God and the Divine Rank were both valuable finds. The body was perfect for crafting special guardian Divine Spirits, and the Divine Rank itself was excellent for enhancing one’s skills.
"Alright, let’s head back to rest for a bit, and then go find our next target."
After speaking, Du You glanced back; the desert oasis was shattered, and after a brief battle, the entire imperial city of the Quicksand Empire was destroyed. However, a murderous intent flashed across Du You’s eyes — this country needed to disappear.
Having controlled the entire east, only this small area remained left out.
This place had always been a thorn in Du You’s side; now that the thorn was removed, it was time to properly heal this land. As soon as they returned, Shaliya launched an attack immediately.
The sixth-tier soldiers who had been waiting attacked in swarms and annihilated the last of the Quicksand Empire’s powerhouses who dared resist. Those left were resigned to being treated as slaves.
To regain treatment as ordinary citizens would take several generations. Meanwhile, a tree-planting team also appeared; Du You didn’t want a desert in his own backyard - such terrain was no good.
After a rest, Du You checked on the progress of the two sisters, then set out again, this time aiming for the God of Nature.
The God of Nature wasn’t sealed but had used special power to protect itself in an underground shrine. Over the years, the God of Nature had been removing the poison left by the Desert Death God, but only half had been cleansed.
When Du You saw the God of Nature, he found this being was even weaker than the Desert Death God.
Moreover, it looked very strange, like a monkey with several trees growing on it, wrapped all over in leaves, and its left hand replaced by some unknown tentacles, a mere mass of tentacles put together. Even the eye looked weird, the pattern within was hexagonal, looking so bizarre as if haphazardly assembled.
Now, Du You understood why the God of Nature had left so many oddly shaped creatures behind; this was its true form. Seeing such a thing, Du You didn’t even feel like greeting it.
Breaking the barrier that protected the opponent, Du You then launched a series of attacks.
The God of Nature, truly being an incarnation of nature, had tenacious vitality. Even severely poisoned, Du You, relying purely on one skill, still couldn’t subdue it quickly. After battling consistently for three days, finally, the God of Nature was slain.
After two consecutive battles, Du You felt somewhat exhausted. After gathering his things, Du You decided to head back and rest for a few days.
Similarly, what was contained in the chests left behind by these two, he had not yet checked.
Even reaching the seventh tier, under the assistance of Earth’s power, the enemy’s death still resulted in drops and left chests. As for the specific contents, that was still unknown. There wasn’t much information recorded on this aspect.
It might be useful, or it might not. But the things left behind by Divine Spirits were certainly not simple.
