Night of Despair-Chapter 444 - 442 Lost 2

But merely dodging will only make oneself increasingly passive.

Half a minute later, Yu Hong, slightly slow in evading, got slashed on his right arm.

Blood spurted out, and he quickly covered the wound while retreating rapidly.

But Marissa swung her sword blade, continuing to soar in pursuit, sticking closely to him.

Both retreated 500 meters in just two seconds, leaving behind a trail of airflow indentations on the river surface.

In their retreat, the Black Sword’s blade once again neared Yu Hong, slashing straight across his chest.

The sword blade slowly accelerated, drawing closer, and even closer, causing the skin on Yu Hong’s left arm, which was blocking in front of him, to slightly tingle.

At that moment, Yu Hong’s eyes turned cold, his right eye patch suddenly fell off, revealing another ferocious eye full of black scales.

The next instant, purple Array Patterns stacked upon each other in his eyes began to rotate, releasing purple light.

’Chaotic God Heavenly Eye!’

A purple light beam mixed with countless runes burst out from his eyes, hitting Marissa’s face at the speed of light.

Hiss!!!

Under the enhancement of Inner Strength and Spirit Light, a purple spike emerged from the black fog and fiercely pressed against Marissa’s face, crashing her from mid-air into the Black River.

Amid the tumultuous sound of the enormous water current.

The purple light slowly faded.

Marissa completely sank into the river water, quiet after that.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds!

Boom!!

Suddenly, with Yu Hong as the center, the Black River waters all around splashed up, forcibly displaced.

A giant black dragon covered in rotting pustules completely occupied the river channel, bursting out from the water, and snapped at Yu Hong.

Roar!!!

The black dragon had four wings on its back, its face sporting the same six green eyes as Marissa, and one of its front claws, similar to a human’s, still gripping a long black sword.

She burst out, her dragon’s maw filled with serrated teeth, one of those numerous sharp teeth as large as Yu Hong at that moment.

At the same time, rings of invisible Spiritual Fluctuations also automatically spread and oscillated from her dragon body.

These fluctuations touched the surrounding Black Disaster Monsters, causing all the creatures to emit terrified shrieks and turn to flee outward.

Some monsters too slow to escape only lasted two seconds before silently dissolving into black droplets, shooting out and blending from different directions into Marissa’s body.

The Spiritual Fluctuation spreading to Yu Hong made his body shiver, but the next moment, his inherent true nature spontaneously activated.

Rays of white Array Patterns briefly appeared on his skin, greatly weakening the invasion of these terrifying Spiritual Fluctuations.

True nature reduces psychic interference erosion up to forty percent, and crucially, it absorbs the surrounding fear and converts it into an enhancing force for Yu Hong.

"It seems our compatibility isn’t very good," Yu Hong’s body swelled again due to the amplified force of fear.

Quickly growing to five meters!

His skin burst, splattering blood, but the next moment quickly healed automatically under the effect of the Spirit Light.

’Chaotic God Heavenly Eye!’

Once again, his right eye lit up with purple arrays, and between countless arrays, a beam of purple light burst out downward.

This time’s Chaotic God Heavenly Eye, not only enhanced by Inner Strength and Spirit Light, also contained the attribute-absorbed fear power.

Marissa roared, lunging to bite fiercely at the purple light beam.

However, the seemingly fragile purple light was incredibly tough at that moment, preventing her from closing her sharp teeth.

The two remained deadlocked in mid-air.

After several seconds.

Bang!!

Marissa gave up trying to break the purple light, shook her head, and forcefully swirled the purple light aside, shooting it toward the left river bank.

The river bank shrouded in black fog was unknown, but struck by the purple light, it was penetrated, and slowly faded like a reflection on water, dispersing, reverting back to dense black fog.

Yu Hong seized the opportunity to counterattack, his mind stirring, activating the Chaotic God Heavenly Eye’s newly absorbed Deceleration Field.

But the field had barely emitted when Marissa casually shook it off, directly scattering and severing it.

Only the pure distortive power belonging to the Chaotic God Heavenly Eye Scripture made her quite wary, unable to break it.

Unfortunately, he consecutively tried various techniques, but aside from Chaotic God Heavenly Eye enhanced threefold by Inner Strength and Spirit Light attributes, the rest had little effect on Marissa.

The power of the Ultimate Sun appeared weak for the first time, its own projection cuts off on the spot multiple times in a row.

Clearly, the environment here might be suppressing it too much, hardly allowing much power to transmit.

Time continued to elapse.

The battle dragged on for hours, neither able to subdue the other.

Marissa’s Black Sword could indeed injure Yu Hong, but could not strike decisively.

Yu Hong’s Chaotic God Heavenly Eye could suppress Marissa, but could only force her back, unable to deliver a conclusive blow.

As the fight went on, Yu Hong started to harbor thoughts of retreating.

He could not keep wasting time here battling, as time for Black Disaster Monsters represented a completely different concept than for himself.

But he was different...

Hiss!

The last beam of purple light shot out, repelling Marissa.

Yu Hong finally stopped entangling and withdrew.

"Thinking of running away!?" The giant four-winged six-eyed black dragon pursued closely, its mouth igniting turbulent black Dragon Flame, aiming from afar.

"This is pointless," Yu Hong said coldly.

"Pointless? You think I’m wasting time here for no reason?? You think this is just some place!?" Marissa laughed.

"!!?" Yu Hong’s heart was shocked, and he instantly understood the other party’s intention.

There are accomplices!

One Marissa was already a handful for him to handle, and if another one came...

Just as he thought about the possibility, suddenly in the distant front of the sky, a slightly blue-colored four-winged, six-eyed black dragon dove down from mid-air, emitting a huge roar.

Buzz!

The surrounding air began to vibrate, even causing countless tiny particles of river water to jump and steam up a light mist.

Yu Hong’s eyelids twitched wildly, this four-winged, six-eyed black dragon of exactly the same form made him have some bad associations.

Immediately, he rapidly retreated, his eyes bursting with purple light that transformed into spike-like beams, shooting straight at Marissa.

"Thinking about running? Catch him, Ryan!" Marissa blocked the purple light with her sword and laughed loudly. "Eat him, and we can extend our recognition by at least a hundred years!"

Roar!!

The blue-black giant dragon roared again, and from a distance, it opened its mouth to spew a thick blue Dragon Flame.

Hiss!!

The Dragon Flame, as wide as tens of meters, looked like a massive column chasing after the retreating Yu Hong, continually moving forward.

The dragon moved its mouth much faster than Yu Hong could retreat.

In just a second, the Dragon Flame caught up to Yu Hong, engulfing him completely.

This was exactly the gap after the release of the purple light from the right eye.

In the booming sound, the blue pillar of Dragon Flame fell on the river surface, burning and steaming the water into a large amount of black mist, enveloping the surroundings.

Amidst the hissing sound.

At the core of the flame.

Crack.

A brittle cracking sound suddenly drifted out.

"Sealing God Realm·Pure Lotus Divine Fragrance!"

A sharp female voice spread from the center of the fire pillar.

The next instant, the center of the entire Dragon Flame rapidly extinguished as if something was swiftly absorbing the flames.

Marissa and the other black dragon Ryan that followed felt a stabbing pain all over their bodies and hurriedly retreated.

The next instant, the blue Dragon Flame in their view completely extinguished, replaced by a giant Golden Lotus spanning hundreds of meters in diameter, covering all the surrounding river channels.

Every petal of the Golden Lotus was like a sharp blade, spinning at high speed and releasing blinding golden light, piercing through all the surrounding black mist.

"Something’s wrong!!" Suddenly realizing something, Marissa did not retreat but advanced, enduring the severe pain as she pounced towards the Golden Lotus, her side flickering with a shadow while the Black Sword slashed forward.

Dragon Flash!

Hiss!

The blade landed right on the Golden Lotus, producing a sound of gold striking iron, unable to cut through.

"Ryan! Help!"

Soon the other giant dragon also pounced forward, attempting to bite through the Golden Lotus, but instead, its own mouth was cut and bled by the counter-spikes.

By this time, Yu Hong was no longer in his original place.

He had already quietly departed from behind the Golden Lotus, walking on water toward the Black Light.

Looking at the broken square Jade Pendant in his hand, he sighed in his heart.

This was originally given to him by Quan He as a life-saving Dao Artifact, and though he thought he would never have the chance to use it,

After all, his strength was now so great that ordinary people could not fathom it. But he didn’t expect that he would still need it...

Putting away the fragments of the Jade Pendant, he raised his hand to examine the imprint on his arm, which had been completely washed away by the power of Quan He when the Golden Lotus appeared.

’I thought I was nearing Quan He’s strength, but it seems I’m still much weaker than her. No wonder she is the strongest in the Taoist Sect world.’

Feeling the Golden Lotus firmly blocking the two giant dragons’ pursuit behind him, although it was slowly breaking apart, it looked it could still block for a few more minutes.

For fighters of this level, being blocked for a few minutes was rather remarkable.

He sprinted following the sensations in his mind.

Before long, a giant ship slowly sailing through the black mist finally appeared ahead.

Swoosh.

Yu Hong leaped up, plunging into the protective light of the ship.

He just entered and took a long breath, feeling all the external aura and Red Value being blocked outside.

The slight sense of crisis in his heart also quickly faded.

But the next second, he thought of something.

’The target of the Black Light is too big; it can’t continue sailing here. Even with the Golden Lotus blocking, this distance is too close.’

’We must find a way to hide!’

Without any hesitation, he quickly went to the Main Control Room, steering the ship towards the direction where Quan He’s Spirit Light had flashed before.

But not long after.

Bang.

The Black Light crashed into the riverbank of Black River, unable to continue forward.

Yu Hong and Ku Chan among others were startled by the impact and came out to look towards the riverbank.

Outside the ship, a grayish-white riverbank stretched into the misty distance.

It was impossible to see how deep or judge if this was an ordinary island.

The grayish-white color of the riverbank surface, all made of broken white bricks, reflected the faint luminescence from the ship, showcasing its color.

"You’re injured!?" Ku Chan came out at this point and finally saw Yu Hong’s state, clearly surprised.

"Just a minor injury, in the Source Disaster, anything is possible," Yu Hong calmly replied. He put the eyepatch back on, covering his right eye.

"The person I need to save may be deep here; Yiyi stays behind to look after the ship, Ku Chan, Zhang Kajing, are you coming with me?" He turned to look at the two.

"I will go." Ku Chan did not hesitate, following Yu Hong was to enhance his strength as much as possible; staying on the ship without the Red Food Method to cultivate was pointless.

"I am going too?" Zhang Kajing was the surprised one.

"I promised your father to take care of you," Yu Hong replied.
