Chapter 765: Unexpected Development

This was the strongest enemy Su Ze had encountered so far!

A Sun God, and a Sun God from a first-rate Strong Race at that!

The Ape Race, while not one of the most powerful branches of the Beast Race, had once briefly ruled over them, even becoming their royal family.

Even now, the Ape Race could barely be considered a first-rate Strong Race.

Therefore, Yuan Shan’s combat prowess surpassed that of any Sun God Su Ze had previously faced.

Although Balrog was the son of an Ancestral God, the Dou Race was ultimately a third-rate race, no match for a first-rate one.

Facing Yuan Shan’s attack, Su Ze didn’t dare to be careless. Even though he could fight above his level, he wasn’t reckless enough to challenge a first-rate Strong Race right off the bat.

Su Ze immediately executed several consecutive Space Jumps, trying to dodge Yuan Shan’s attack. But Yuan Shan had already sealed the surrounding area with a Space Net, restricting Su Ze’s Space Jumps to within that sealed space.

The power of a Sun God’s punch covered nearly the entire space. It was inescapable!

Su Ze could only jump toward the Hero, teleporting beside it and using the Hero’s Energy Shield to block the blow.

A Sun God-level Spaceship’s Energy Shield could withstand a Sun God’s attack, but after taking that hit, the shield visibly dimmed.

“Quick! Recharge the ship!” inside the vessel, Mr. Ya shouted.

The others snapped to their senses and rushed headlong toward the ship’s energy room.

The group threw caution to the wind, using every means at their disposal to frantically recharge the Hero.

The ship’s Energy Shield required energy to be maintained. It would draw a massive amount of power, especially when withstanding a powerful attack. As long as the energy supply held up, the Hero could block a few more hits.

Su Ze’s mind raced. ‘Hiding behind the Hero’s protection isn’t a solution. With the space sealed off, defeating the enemy is the only way to survive!’

His strength had improved considerably during this journey. He felt he could probably try fighting above his level against a Sun God from a Weak Race, but he had no intention of testing his strength against a Sun God from a first-rate Strong Race.

‘Against an enemy like this, I have to go all out!’

“Mu Mu, get him!”

With Su Ze’s call, the beast was unleashed.

A four-legged beast shot out of the Heroic Ship. The moment it left the ship’s vicinity, its body rapidly expanded, returning to the size of a mountain.

Within its dark and deathly still eyes, two balls of pitch-black flame ignited.

As the black flames flew out from its eyes, the entire space seemed to have been sprayed with ink, plunging into a state of absolute darkness.

Yuan Shan and Su Ze both instantly lost their sight and senses. They could see nothing else; the black flames were the only light in the world.

Fortunately, the Dark Blood Giant Beast immediately shared its senses with Su Ze, allowing him to see everything within the sealed space clearly.

As a relatively rare Dark Element creature, the Dark Blood Giant Beast could better exert its strength in the darkness. It possessed a powerful, rule-based Racial Talent called the Flame of Devouring Light.

The two demonic flames in its pupils could devour all light, turning the surrounding area into a Dark Domain.

Within this domain, no light could exist!

Such an environment was, of course, the most advantageous for a Dark Element creature. At this moment, for instance, the Dark Blood Giant Beast manipulated the darkness, forming countless dark beasts that frantically lunged at and bit Yuan Shan.

Yuan Shan’s senses were cut off by the darkness, forcing him to rely solely on his powerful combat instincts and the subtle fluctuations of energy flow to react.

These methods alone were certainly not enough to defeat Yuan Shan, but they could cause significant interference and hinder his performance.

The Dark Blood Giant Beast charged forward, raising a massive hoof to crush Yuan Shan.

No Stellar Giant Beast had a weak physical body; every one was an apex predator with immense physical strength.

But the Ape Race was also physically powerful, and they were particularly skilled at using weapons.

A long staff materialized in Yuan Shan’s hands. It should have been a brilliant, shimmering gold, but with all light being devoured, it was just a dull, black rod.

This didn’t affect its power, however. Yuan Shan held the staff with both hands, raised it over his head, and forcefully blocked the Dark Blood Giant Beast’s stomp. Then, he swung it back and cracked it against the beast’s hoof.

The might of that strike was beyond imagination, directly shattering the bones and tearing the tendons in the Dark Blood Giant Beast’s hoof!

Su Ze could tell that the staff in Yuan Shan’s hand was not a Divine Artifact, but an energy weapon condensed from a skill.

The Ape Race excelled at using weapons, and the skills they mastered were compatible with their Racial Talents. That long staff seemed to be imbued with additional power.

It was a common consensus in the universe that Intelligent Races could crush beasts of the same rank. A Sun God from a first-rate race could absolutely dominate a Tier-9 beast, and even a Stellar Giant Beast was no exception.

So, Su Ze had no intention of letting the Dark Blood Giant Beast fight Yuan Shan alone. By now, he had somewhat adapted to the darkness and grown accustomed to fighting with the senses shared by the Dark Blood Giant Beast.

Su Ze casually condensed a Life Fruit and tossed it to the Dark Blood Giant Beast, then joined the battle himself, teaming up with the beast to besiege Yuan Shan.

The Dark Blood Giant Beast swallowed the Life Fruit, its injuries healed, and its condition returned to its peak.

Yuan Shan initially paid no mind to Su Ze’s entry into the fight. He didn’t take a Tier-9 beast and a Moon God seriously.

But he never expected Su Ze’s combat power to be so ferocious, or his attacks so sharp!

The combined force of the man and the beast actually put him under immense pressure!

He finally understood why his son and his three companions had lost to Su Ze alone.

“This power… it’s comparable to a Sun God from a Weak Race… What race are you?!”
