Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1117 - 1118: Unsettled

"What are you doing?"

Feng Yuan looked at Guo Huai with some surprise. It seemed that the latter was also preparing something, and he was even involving Pu Pu in it. But did he really have a way to damage that black sphere? While they did have the high-level energy he had granted them, it had no particular counteracting effects. At best, it could only prevent the Abyss from using its special corrosive assimilation ability to destroy their ultimate moves.

"There may be gaps if we only rely on their ultimate moves."

Guo Huai looked at the gorgeous bubble as he spoke. Even though they could directly gaze at the black sphere through that gorgeous bubble, it seemed that Agunas’s ultimate move did not have a similar effect. If they could not lock on to their target, relying solely on the large-scale indiscriminate attacks of Delong Tower might prove difficult in dealing with this entity.

The larger the area, the less concentrated the force would be, and the less damage it would cause. Unless Feng Yuan kept infusing them with high-level energy, given the current situation, they would likely struggle to destroy that black sphere.

At times like this, it’s best not to waste too much high-level energy. Guo Huai was also well aware that he and Pu Pu simply could not inflict any effective damage on that black sphere.

"Support? But I don’t know what kind of ultimate move Agunas is preparing."

While speaking, Feng Yuan looked towards Agunas. At that moment, the azure hexagonal crystal wall set up by Gitalien shattered into specks of blue light and faded away. Gitalien returned to its original form and let out a long howl. Inside the marvelous bubble, the world that had just come into being was instantly annihilated. A beam of dead silence burst forth from the bubble and struck the black sphere fiercely.

A billow of black smoke enveloped the black sphere. The beam of World Obliteration kept eroding the black smoke, which seemed endless. As the beam continued to strike, the gorgeous bubble began to shrink. With the collapse of the azure hexagonal crystal wall, everyone except Feng Yuan heard a continuous strange whispering in their ears.

Now, without the barrier of the gorgeous bubble, even Agunas felt enormous pressure when directly confronting the black sphere. Strange thoughts kept emerging, eroding its sanity. Seeing this, Guo Huai waved his hand, and the transformations caused by the high-level energy disappeared. An orb-shaped Barrier made up of countless sky-blue square pieces enveloped them all.

With the appearance of the Barrier, Agunas and the others felt an immediate relief. At least the strange whispers and thoughts ceased. Veronia looked at Guo Huai in surprise before focusing back on the black sphere. Agunas’s ultimate move was almost ready. To avoid conflicting with Agunas’s move, it could not strike at the same time.

As the gorgeous bubble disappeared and the beam of World Obliteration lost its source, it dissipated unwillingly into the space. The black smoke continued to cover the area for a while before it slowly dispersed. Perhaps disoriented by the consecutive ultimate moves, the black sphere did not counterattack immediately. Although there were no reference points around, everyone was pleasantly surprised to discover that the beam of World Obliteration had significantly eroded the black sphere.

After all, unlike the waves of Delong Tower, the beam of World Obliteration released by Gitalien was highly concentrated, with nearly all of its attacks hitting the black sphere, hence destroying a quarter of its size.

"It seems to be quite effective."

Gitalien said, satisfied. It wasn’t arrogant enough to think a single attack could utterly destroy the black sphere. It would be more likely if Feng Yuan took action himself. Even with high-level energy on its side, it was not possible.

Agunas returned to its original appearance, floating in midair with its eyes closed. After a while, it raised a claw, opened its eyes, and a ribbon shining with splendid silver light rushed toward the black sphere. Delong Tower looked at Agunas with surprise; its ultimate move seemed somewhat odd. However, before it could voice a question, the silver ribbon had already reached the black sphere.

The ribbon tightly wrapped around the black sphere, the silver light flashing. The black sphere seemed to be struggling fiercely as the silver ribbon expanded and contracted in response to the changes in the black sphere.

"Projecting a separate, tangible manifestation of the time stream? That seems plausible."

Feng Yuan watched the silver-white ribbon thoughtfully, and without needing an explanation from Agunas, he could tell what it had done. The silver-white ribbon was what the time stream’s projection looked like once it had been materialized. Although it seemed somewhat odd, because the projection was materialized, it had become disconnected from the time stream itself.

Even if the enemy tried to trace its origin, they would not be able to find the time stream’s projection, much less the time stream itself. The materialized time stream projection might not be particularly strong in attack power, but it was a rather shameless form of attack.

Despite appearing as a mere thin ribbon, it was nearly impossible to destroy. Correct, even this black grand orb could not destroy this ribbon, a materialized projection of the time stream. Moreover, the ribbon itself possessed a special potency of erasing time, rendering even the black grand orb incapable of avoiding that effect.

Unable to corrode or assimilate, the black grand orb could only endure the unceasing erasure of time, aimless and without destination. This power of time erasure constituted a kind of true damage in some sense. Perhaps a single instance wouldn’t cause much harm, but when tallying the total damage, it would likely exceed that of Gitalien’s recent World Obliteration beam.

One could tell by the fact that the black grand orb wasn’t even deploying its black mist barrier—unable to mitigate any of the damage. By now, Gitalien and its peers had also discerned the truth. Although they probably didn’t understand it as deeply as Feng Yuan, they were amazed that Agunas possessed this ability.

"Who would have thought you had such a cunning ultimate move up your sleeve."

Veronia’s umbrella emitted a golden globe of light at its tip. Agunas rolled its eyes at Veronia’s glance and offered no explanation. This wasn’t a move exclusive to it; Lorraine Tower naturally had access to this technique too. But since there was rarely a need for it, they seldom used it. After all, this move could be quite troublesome if it hit friendly forces—it didn’t discriminate between friend and foe.

Struggling, the black grand orb shrank continuously, until it reduced to a third of its original size. Only then did the silver-white ribbon enveloping the black grand orb gradually fade away. The black grand orb pulsated, seemingly in anger, but before it could act, Veronia, who had been waiting for the moment, took her turn.

The golden globe struck the black grand orb fiercely, and a white grand orb detached itself from within. As the white and black orbs grappled up close, Agunas gave Veronia a scrutinizing look and remarked ambiguously, freewebnøvel.com

"It seems your ultimate move isn’t all that impressive either."

"Isn’t it good to make the enemy fight itself?"

Veronia retorted bluntly with a glance at Agunas. However, both Gitalien and Delong Tower wore uneasy expressions. Although it seemed that the black grand orb probably wouldn’t withstand Veronia’s attack, they couldn’t shake off the feeling of unease, as if something had been overlooked.

Guo Huai didn’t notice anything unusual; he just saw the black and white orbs wrestling, becoming smaller and smaller, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He was actually a bit worried—if everyone had used up their ultimate moves and the thing still hadn’t been dealt with, what would they do?

As the black and white orbs continued their battle, they could no longer be considered "grand." With their sizes rapidly diminishing, the orbs gradually shrunk to the height of a person. However, as they decreased to this size, each attack reduced their mass less and less, suggesting that the entity was becoming more solid.

"It should be resolvable, right?"

Muttering anxiously to himself, Guo Huai looked toward Feng Yuan. The latter was squinting at the black orb, his expression grave. Realizing something was amiss, Guo Huai turned quickly and saw that an anomaly had indeed surfaced.

The black light gradually dissipated, revealing the core of the orb—a gigantic black spherical crystal, half a person’s height!
