Chapter 1685: The Third Opponent Falls (2nd Challenge)

Night Cell Tower

I continued to hit the old man until the sound of the door opening was heard. Hearing that, I stopped releasing the shock force power.

A realization dawned on me: I had been shooting the shock power unnecessarily. Then I took a deep breath before taking a look at the corpse of the old man.

It was totally gruesome. Then I shifted my attention to the door. Something was trying to come out. If I wasn’t wrong, the next opponent was a foreign creature.

What could it be? I had my doubts. I didn’t think it was going to be the same humanoid again. I started walking toward the door.

I arrived in front of the door. I touched the knob and opened it. The next second, my senses screamed at me.

Boom!

A black tongue appeared in a flash before striking me. I received a blow to my chest. My body flew backward like a fast projectile before crashing into the wall.

The attack was an unexpected and powerful one.

Swoosh!

The next moment, the tongue returned to its original side. It was a foreign creature, which was the third opponent. But it was not coming out of the doorway; it stayed inside that room.

On the other hand, the ancient spirit recognized the foreign creature.

"It’s a Venom Maw. You were attacked by a Venom Maw. Its size is massive. That’s why it couldn’t come out and used its long tongue to attack," the ancient spirit said to me.

I circulated the healing force power to cure the injury. Meanwhile, my perception had already enveloped the room. I noticed that the creature was staying inside the room and not coming out.

"Venom Maw," I muttered.

It reminded me of the creature I had faced on the battlefield before. At that time, I had used all of my inheritance power to defeat the Venom Maw.

The circulation of the healing force power eased the injuries. Fortunately, the creature could not come outside right then.

I stood up after some struggle. I looked at my chest. My clothes were torn, and a big red mark could be seen on my chest.

It was the mark of the wound. Fortunately, the bones in my body were stronger due to the blood energy method.

They had withstood the attack. I began to circulate the dark purple lightning power through my body. The dark lightning power with a crimson border flowed along my body.

I started walking up to the door. My perception was active. I could see the toad-like structure inside the room.

"Lightning Condensed Finger."

I began to execute the finger technique. A dense, dark purple lightning ball gathered at the tip of my finger.

Boom!

After getting closer to the door, I released the finger beam technique.

Boom!

I shot the beam at the foreign creature called the Venom Maw. The dark purple lightning beam with a crimson border shot toward the door.

In a flash, the attack struck the massive body of the Venom Maw. The next second, I saw the purple lightning arcs covering the body of the foreign creature.

The Venom Maw creature was frozen in place.

Swoosh!

Taking advantage of the opportunity, I sneaked inside the room, seeing that the Red Mark Level purple lightning power was paralyzing the creature.

I bolted from my position to attack the creature. I appeared before it and punched forward.

Boom!

My fists were covered in the dark purple lightning power. When my fists made contact with the creature.,

Boom!

A detonation occurred. The massive surge of power shook the creature again. The massive venomous creature staggered backward and fell to the ground.

The toad-shaped creature crashed onto the ground. Seeing that the venom creature was down, I circulated the shock force power alongside it.

Boom!

The two types of power circulated inside my body. Then I went forward to attack with a barrage of punches.

Boom!

My fists landed on the body of the Venom Maw creature. The purple lightning power and shock force power tore through the defenses of its skin.

The two types of power breached the gap and began to damage the internal organs of the creature.

The Venom Maw creature made a weird sound.

Boom!

The shockwave spread outward, slamming into the room’s walls.

As time passed, I stopped using the lightning power and began to unleash more shock force power, blow after blow.

Boom!

The shock force power began to tear through the body of the foreign creature. The Venom Maw was dying slowly. It couldn’t believe it was suffering at the hands of a young warrior.

Boom!

The Venom Maw creature channeled a strong dark origin power. The dark origin power quickly gathered in the creature’s long tongue.

Boom!

The dark tongue lashed out from the Venom Maw creature. In a flash, the black tongue shot toward me.

Swoosh!

Right then, I evaded the attack. The black tongue whipped past me, failing to hit its mark.

Even so, the Venom Maw creature continued to strike with its black tongue.

At one point, I used the "Lightning Wheel" technique. The lightning wheel was filled with dense lightning power.

Boom!

When the black tongue collided with the lightning wheel, a massive surge of power rebounded into the venom creature.

Boom!

A massive explosion occurred. The powerful lightning energy damaged the body of the venom creature even further.

Pfff!

Dark blood flowed out from the wounds of the Venom Maw creature.

At the same time, I began to focus on the rune of the shock force power. It didn’t take long for me to feel the improvement in the shock force rune.

Just like with the old man, I lost all sense of time. I began to unleash a barrage of attacks toward the Venom Maw creature.

Boom!

The Venom Maw creature tried to make a comeback, but the continuous attacks made it impossible.

The ancient spirit paid close attention to the ongoing fight. It saw that Zack Lockwood had forgotten his surroundings once again, entirely focused on improving the shock force power.

Boom!

It didn’t take long for the beast to die. The venom creature drew its final breath. After killing the creature, I collected my thoughts.

I directed my attention to the shock force rune in my mind. Compared to before, the power within the shock force rune had grown much denser.
