Chapter 302: Chapter 302: Making a Move

Qiansha furiously swung his giant sword, cleaving the snake heads apart one by one.

Hilic swung its left claw, swiping at Qiansha.

Qiansha brought his giant sword down to meet it.

The two attacks collided, and Qiansha was sent flying.

"Charge!"

Seeing this, Luo Lie roared at his subordinates.

Hordes of soldiers bravely charged toward Hilic.

Hilic watched the approaching soldiers, leaped high into the air, and came crashing down.

BOOM!

The ground of the entire plaza shattered violently, and a massive shockwave swept outward.

The charging soldiers were all sent flying like kites with their strings cut.

Seeing that surrounding the beast was useless, Qian Xing took a risk and charged in.

Hilic’s three crimson eyes swiveled, locking onto the approaching Qian Xing. The snake heads on its blood-red tentacles opened their mouths and fired a barrage of light beams at him.

Qian Xing weaved through the attacks, closing the distance.

Hilic viciously swiped its right claw at Qian Xing.

Qian Xing dodged with an agile leap, landing on Hilic’s claw. He ran up its arm, heading straight for its head.

Hilic reached out with its left claw to grab him.

Qian Xing dodged with another leap, using the left claw as a springboard to launch himself upward. He raised his blade and plunged it deep into one of Hilic’s eyes.

CRUNCH!

The eyeball exploded.

"ROAR!"

Hilic let out a pained roar.

His strike successful, Qian Xing quickly pulled out his blade and leaped down.

Just then, the snake heads on its tentacles opened their mouths, locking onto Qian Xing and firing a volley of intersecting beams.

Qian Xing dodged frantically.

BOOM!

In an instant, a beam struck Qian Xing. The massive explosion sent him flying, and he crashed heavily to the ground.

Qian Xing felt a searing pain deep in his organs. Just as he gritted his teeth and staggered to his feet...

...Hilic charged viciously toward him.

"Father!"

Seeing their father in danger, Qian Luobing and Luoxue disregarded their own safety and charged Hilic from the left and right.

They swung their weapons in unison, striking the back of Hilic’s legs.

Hilic stopped short and turned its head to look at Qian Luobing and Luoxue. Its blood-red tentacles shot out, aiming to impale them.

Qian Luobing and Luoxue hacked through the tentacles as they retreated together, quickly creating distance.

Just then, Hilic opened its mouth, gathering a terrifying beam of energy that it blasted directly at the two of them.

Qian Luobing and Luoxue dodged instantly.

The dark red beam struck the ground, creating a massive explosion that sent the two of them flying.

THUD~

The two crashed heavily to the ground.

At that moment, Hilic charged them in a frenzy, raising its right claw to rip them to shreds.

"Luo Bing, Luoxue!"

Qian Xing roared in desperation upon seeing this.

"Young Ladies!"

Bakaen, Jing Chuan, and the others cried out in despair.

Just then, a crimson figure appeared in a flash, intercepting Hilic’s attack right in front of Qian Luobing and Luoxue.

A tremendous shockwave swept outward.

"Who is that?"

"To think someone could block Hilic’s attack head-on!"

...

Qian Xing and the others were stunned. They stared at the crimson figure, their faces filled with utter shock.

Qian Luobing and Luoxue also staggered to their feet. They stared in surprise at Long Ming, who now stood before them.

Gritting his teeth as he held back Hilic’s claw, Long Ming said to Qian Luobing and Luoxue.

"Get back. Now."

"Long Ming!"

Qian Luobing and Luoxue froze for a moment at the sound of his voice, then snapped out of it and immediately fell back.

"ROAR!"

Enraged, Hilic commanded its snake-headed blood tentacles to lash out at Long Ming.

Long Ming’s eyes hardened. Channeling the Power of his Red Demon armor, he forced the claw aside. He then swiftly dodged the barrage of attacking snake heads and charged straight for Hilic.

Hilic raised its left claw and swiped, trying to tear him apart.

Long Ming sidestepped the claw and, with a backhand swing of his blood blade, slashed at Hilic’s left wrist.

CRACK!

Hilic’s left claw was sliced clean off.

"So strong!"

"How did Long Ming get this strong?!"

...

Jing Chuan and the others gasped.

Just then, a torrent of blood-red tentacles erupted from the stump of Hilic’s severed arm, surging toward Long Ming.

Long Ming immediately fell back, swinging his blood blade to effortlessly sever the incoming tentacles.

Hilic then retracted the severed tentacles, and its left claw regenerated completely.

It glared at Long Ming, its expression one of pure hatred.

Long Ming took a deep breath and charged at Hilic once more.

Hilic opened its mouth, gathering a furious beam of energy to blast at Long Ming.

Long Ming leaped into the air with a push of his toes, narrowly dodging the dark red beam. As he passed, he brought his blood blade down on Hilic’s body.

CRACK!

A gruesome wound was sliced open down the length of Hilic’s body.

It let out a pained roar as countless tentacles erupted from its back, sweeping toward Long Ming like a tidal wave that blotted out the sky.

"Watch out!"

Luoxue and the others shouted a warning to Long Ming.

Holding his breath, Long Ming swung his blood blade in a wide, horizontal arc.

CRACK!

Tentacle after tentacle was severed, and countless snake heads rained down on the ground.

"Nice one!"

...

Jing Chuan and the others shouted in excitement.

Qian Xing, Brubo, and Agaka watched the scene in utter disbelief.

At that moment, Hilic’s crimson eyes stared at Long Ming as the red pustules covering its body began to glow with a dark red light.

The eyes on the severed snake heads suddenly lit up. Each one split into a new blood-red tentacle, which then whipped toward Long Ming from all directions.

Long Ming was taken aback, but he swung his blood blade, cutting them down one after another.

But there were too many of them. In an instant, they swarmed and entangled him, forming a fleshy cocoon.

"Long Ming!"

Seeing this, Luoxue was about to charge forward despite her injuries.

BOOM!

The entire cocoon of flesh exploded.

Long Ming had broken free.

But just then, Hilic clenched its right claw into a fist and brought it crashing down on Long Ming in a furious blow.

Before Long Ming could even react, he was slammed into the ground.

The ground caved in with a deafening roar.

Hilic rained down one vicious punch after another.

BOOM!

The entire battlefield shook.

"This is bad! Let’s move!"

Seeing this, Qian Xing, Qian Luobing, Luoxue, and the others charged toward Hilic from all sides, ignoring their own injuries.

Hilic’s crimson eyes darted about, glaring at the pesky humans.

The snake heads opened their maws, firing dark red beams at them.

Qian Xing and the others dodged frantically.

Then, they leaped in close, swinging their weapons and hacking into Hilic’s body.

CRACK!

Gash after gash opened up on Hilic’s body.

"ROAR!"

Enraged, Hilic swung its claws, swiping at Qian Xing and the others.

Just then, Long Ming hauled himself out of the crater and charged straight for Hilic.

Hilic instinctively sensed danger and whipped its head around to look at Long Ming. ’How is this human so resilient? He’s still not dead?!’

Long Ming leaped high into the air and brought his blade down on Hilic’s head.

CRACK!

Hilic’s head was split open, revealing the disgusting biological tissue within.

It let out a pained wail and swung a claw viciously at the descending Long Ming.

Long Ming raised his blood blade to block!
