Chapter 1185 New Soul Technique?
*Whoosh!~*
Just when the Davis Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle became cautious that the hateful human had disappeared again, Davis directly appeared above it as his silhouette became visible.
The Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle's senses instantly found him as its neck bent in an unnatural way as it looked up, its mandibles flashing with intense dark violet lightning targeted at him.
*BZZzzzzz!~~~*
The twenty-meter radius violet-lightning wave shot towards the skies as if directly challenging the dark purple clouds above. Davis's expression changed as he appeared to have belatedly reacted in unleashing his attack that he kept charging. It was just an instant before the surrounding space he was in was engulfed in violet lightning, turning him into ashes.
*Screech~~*
The Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle snickered as it saw the human's ashes fall over before that too became turned into nothing by its violet-lightning.
How dare a lowly human strike its proud head and put a crack in it?
It snickered again, thinking it was well deserved as it turned to look at the female human when it abruptly found its soul become suddenly heavy as a mountain, making its movements extremely sluggish for a moment. Its carapace tingled with violet-lightning!
"I misjudged you... You are not cunning but pretending to be one..." Davis appeared between its mandibles, provoking the Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle as his expression seemed to be disappointed.
*Boom!~*
The mandible slammed shut without any warning, invoking a whirlwind of violet-lightning that filled the space as it again disintegrated the hateful human once its mandibles severed him!
However, it then noticed the human appear above its eyes, standing on its head, looking unharmed.
Davis's right fist was encased in brownish-golden scales as he stretched his elbow, appearing ready to unleash an earth-shattering might!
"Earth Dragon's Destructive Fist!"
His fist directly landed on its rapidly healing cracked carapace!
*Boom!~~~*
A golden flash of light bloomed as the Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle's whole head bent and crashed into the ground, its whole lower body directly facing the sky as its six legs floated into the air.
Fresh red blood surged out like a fountain from its broken carapace.
Knowing that it was his chance, Davis directly cast a soul technique!
"Incandescent Cry of the Vermilion Bird!~"
His soul force spontaneously entered the Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle's soul sea and directly transformed into a blazing silhouette of a vermilion bird despite the resistance it faced, its beak opening as it screamed!
*Screech!~~~*
The sound of bird cry echoed, causing the Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle's entire senses to fall into chaos as it shrieked in intense pain! Its whole body shook as its violet-lightning run amok over its whole carapace, causing Davis to jump away from it as he retreated.
"Haha... I don't want to get hit by that..."
Davis lightly chuckled as he did not doubt that he would be fried to a crisp if he got caught by that intense, rampaging violet-lightning. He could see that it was expending all its energy to defend itself. Although he had the strength to defend against its physical attacks, he didn't have the power to defend against its atrocious yet paralyzing violet-lightning.
Once caught, he knew that he would be paralyzed even if his body could withstand its violet-lightning for a few moments.
He was aware that he was battling an opponent who could kill him in a few moves if he gets easily caught. That's why his moves to appear above it at the start was nothing more than to fool it with illusions. He was prepared to confuse it many times without having to get hurt, but he never thought that it would only take him two tries to leave a crack in its head carapace, leading to his disappointment of not being required to use more illusions.
If it were a fleshy magical beast, his attack could've certainly inflicted a dent in its skull, but since it was a hard, durable carapace, it was able to block his Earth Dragon's Destructive Fist while only suffering a crack.
Nevertheless, he followed up with a soul technique before using the same body tempering technique to directly put a hole through the crack on its head, managing to gravely injure it.
Now, it was trembling like a rat in a corner, wondering why a mere seventh stage cultivator was able to overcome it despite the stage difference.
'It seems like it has never met a soul cultivator before in its life...'
Nevertheless, its fear only lasted until it somehow defeated his soul technique with its violet-lightning before it took to the skies, its crimson eyes staring at him in hatred. Its mandibles flashed with violet-lightning before it turned into a sphere before it unleashed it!
The violet-lightning shot above to the skies before coming to a stop five kilometers above. Then it transformed into a web-like snare that surrounded the entire region around it, trapping its enemy in its lightning lair.
Then its entire purplish-black carapace became encased with lightning as it did to deflect his barrage before, making Davis narrow his eyes.
'Mhm... It's not going to let me near it anymore or escape... As expected of a King Beast Stage Magical Beast... It knows how to fight against a new threat...'
Davis smirked a bit as he knew that he was going to find it hard to kill it without using his Death-Like Laws.
His soul force was in no way going to get past that violet-lightning layer of barrier, especially the violet-lightning situated on top of its cracked forehead, but since he already injured it, he felt that he might have a chance if he overdid himself.
After all, time was against him as its carapace was rapidly healing.
Davis had his finger pointed at it all this time, knowing that it was time to ends its life with a more powerful soul technique instead of giving it a chance to end his life. However, no matter how he tried to conjure this powerful soul technique, he could not cast it as it automatically disappears when it reached a certain threshold.
"I see... This technique specifically requires King Soul Stage Soul Force to work...?"
Davis mused as he felt that there was a massive qualitative improvement when he reached the King Soul Stage. Otherwise, he found it hard to believe that one of the most powerful techniques in the Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra didn't work. Besides, even the manual had said so, but he wanted to test if his soul prowess could fill up the gap for it.
In the end, it didn't.
Nevertheless, he didn't dally and quickly cast a soul technique once the Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle put up both defense and cage to seal his escape routes.
"Blazing Incandescent Plume Sea..."
Davis's calm voice echoed out, seething with a bit of ancient tone.
His soul force surged out his pointed finger like a tsunami, turning into a light red waterfall of feathers that further transformed into a brilliant flaming sea as it shot towards the Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle.
The Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle charged another type of violet-lightning. Its mandibles elongated as the technique it conjured continuously surged with intensity, finally making its mandibles grow to a kilometer long as it buzzed with its paralyzing violet-lightning!
Davis's eyes widened as he retreated, 'Damn, it's using its species technique!'
The Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle let out a snicker as its kilometer-long mandibles clad with violet-lightning slammed shut, instantly breaking the brilliant flaming sea of the Blazing Incandescent Plume Sea that shot towards it.
The brilliant lights of flames disappeared, instantly paving the way for it to shoot towards him.
"Vermilion Bird's Talon Shackles!"
At that very moment, two blazing light red talons appeared in front of it as if the human was one step ahead of it.
The Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle clearly didn't expect the human to respond this quickly as it appeared to be taken aback. Nevertheless, its kilometer-long, violet-lightning-clad mandibles slammed shut again as the air evaporated while space shook!
*Rumble!~*
Even then, the two blazing talons that hooked on to the lightning-clad mandibles appeared to hold on for a moment as it took the brunt of the deadly scissor attack.
It lasted for two more seconds before the talons shattered into tiny motes of brilliant red light, shining the big head of the Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle as it approached Davis in a frenzy while brandishing its lightning-clad mandibles.
*Screech!~*
It snickered again, knowing that it was going to win while it closed the distance.
Davis was literally cornered as he reached the end of the snare, but he calmly uttered.
"Formless Incandescence Feather Shield!"
His soul force surged out again as he spontaneously used a defensive technique, deploying a light red-barrier in front of him. The silhouette of a vermilion bird appeared, causing its wings to envelop the barrier within time as the kilometer-long mandibles slammed shut on him!
*Clang!~*
An earth-shattering sound of metal clashing echoed before the Formless Incandescence Feather Shield slowly cracked, shattering into thin motes of light that were reflected through Davis's disappointed eyes!
'Tch... Soul force is intrinsically weak against lightning... but...'
Davis smiled as he saw its violet-lightning-clad mandibles shatter before it disappeared, returning to its original ten-meter long mandibles.
"It is unfortunate that this species technique of yours only lasts for three attacks..."
Davis reached out his hand again, pointing his finger. However, this time, he pointed towards the skies, his lips moving in a carefree yet excited manner.
"Spirit Formation: Lightning Rain!"
*Rumble!~*
Abruptly, the dark purple clouds above the skies trembled as if the apocalypse were upon them. Lightning converged to the single place Davis had pointed, flashing with intensity as thunder reverberated across the area!
The Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle looked up while its lightning-shield on its carapace faded away for some reason. It instantly felt that its life was in danger, but it was too late!
*Boom!~*
*Boom!~*
*Boom!~*
Thick strands of purple lightning shot from the dark purple clouds as it descended with an extreme amount of force, first splitting the violet-lightning snare placed by the Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle before it fell right on its rapidly healing forehead, causing it to screech in pain as it shook its head!
The Violet-Lightning Paralysis Beetle thought that it would be over as it barred its mandibles at the human.
However, the lightning continuously struck its forehead as if something was attracting it, causing it to be quickly pulled into a miserable situation.
Its purplish-black carapace that could withstand this lightning didn't do much as it had a gaping hole present on its forehead.
*Boom!~*
*Boom!~*
*Boom!~*
The raining lightning continuously crashed down the bloody hole, causing it to slowly turn into a hovering corpse as it seemed to be paralyzed for some reason.
"Oh my... it bugged out..." Davis appeared flabbergasted as he looked at the scene.
He couldn't tell what had happened, but he sure could tell that its senses had probably gone haywire.
"Its innards are quite weak contrary to its thick and solid carapace..."
He mused and then saw it plunging towards the surface, its six legs not even trying to regain balance as it crashed right into the ground, a wave of dirt storm blowing around the area it fell.
