188: Chapter 184 BOSS: Demon Aggregator!

"Boom——!!!"

The dark red light on the altar grew increasingly intense, gushing out like a boiling sea of blood.

The entire church ruin trembled violently, the ground cracked, and rubble flew everywhere.

The aura permeating from the depths of the altar made everyone present feel a suffocating sense of oppression.

"Th-that... what is that?!"

The Iron-Eating Beast stepped forward, guarding Lu Yuan with a grave expression, "Master, this aura... it's not right."

Lu Yuan, however, remained standing there with his hands in his pockets, the corners of his mouth even lifting slightly.

"Interesting."

As soon as he finished speaking, a hideous crack suddenly split open in the center of the altar!

A deformed giant hand, formed from countless flesh, severed limbs, and twisted faces, suddenly reached out from the crack and slammed heavily onto the edge of the altar.

Bang!

The altar instantly shattered into pieces, rubble flying everywhere.

That mass of blurry flesh began to writhe and expand crazily, like a pile of living sludge forcibly kneaded together, squeezing out of the crack bit by bit.

One, two, three... countless twisted arms, withered claws, and even half a human face kept extending and retracting from that writhing mass of flesh, clawing and snatching.

"Ew, so disgusting!" Demon Pill hovered in mid-air, baring its teeth and grimacing, floating back a few meters with an expression of disgust.

Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, looking in front of the writhing mass of flesh. A phantom panel, visible only to him, appeared before his eyes.

[BOSS: Demon Aggregate] [Level: LV.71] [HP: 320 million / 320 million] [Skills: Life Furnace, Devour, Life Shield, Substitute, Life Domain...]

[Description: A Demon Aggregate born after devouring countless lives, one of the most bizarre existences in the world. In the abyss, it is also regarded as a terrifying monster not to be provoked.]

Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow. "320 million HP? Even higher than the Emperor-grade Nine-Headed Soul-Swallowing Python." "A bit interesting."

From the depths of the dungeon came a hoarse voice. "Young man! Run quickly!!"

Lu Yuan looked toward the sound and saw a blood-covered middle-aged man behind the dungeon's iron bars, gripping the bars tightly, his eyes full of terror.

"That is a Demon Aggregate from the abyss! It is an immortal existence. No one in the abyss dares to provoke it!"

"You can't beat it! Run! Otherwise, everyone will die here!"

Lu Yuan turned back, looked at those who were desperately urging him to run, and smiled. "Run?" "It's not easy to encounter a BOSS that looks good and speaks well; why would I run?"

???? The people in the dungeon were all stunned. Is this guy scared stupid? Or is there something wrong with his brain to begin with?

...

Lu Yuan just raised his hand and waved it casually. "Take it down."

"Alright, Master! Watch me!" Demon Pill became instantly excited, its Wind and Thunder Wings flapping violently, turning into a three-colored afterimage as it crashed straight toward that mass of flesh.

Boom boom boom boom——! Like a meteor, it crazily struck the Demon Aggregate's body from every direction. Each impact sent ripples across that mass of flesh.

But that mass of flesh was like a bottomless quagmire, silently absorbing all of Demon Pill's attacks. Above its head, a series of numbers floated up—— "-0." "-0." "-0." "-0."

Demon Pill stopped, hovering in mid-air, staring wide-eyed at the unscathed mass of flesh. "???" "How is that possible?!"

It looked down at its own fists in disbelief. "My Tap Dance has stacked to thirteen thousand layers! How could I not even break its defense?!"

Lu Yuan was also a bit surprised. "As expected of a monster from the abyss, it really has some tricks."

He turned his head and issued an order via telepathy. "Goblin, attack."

A thousand miles away. The moment Goblin received the order, the ice and fire god bow was already drawn into a full moon. A spatial fluctuation flashed in his eyes. [Spirit Lock]!

After locking onto the monster a thousand miles away, the power of ice and fire condensed crazily on the bowstring, turning into a two-colored arrow. Swoosh——!!!

The arrow tore through the sky, carrying a sharp piercing sound, instantly crossing a thousand miles. It struck precisely at the center of the Demon Aggregate's brow! Bang!

The arrow exploded, and the power of ice and fire spread wildly! But the mass of flesh only rippled, and then everything returned to calm. A number floated up above its head again. "-0."

Immediately after, the "Critical Missiles" flying from afar also hit the Demon Aggregate one after another. ——0! ——0! ——0!

Goblin fell silent. Lu Yuan also frowned slightly. "The effect of Sniper Star-Flying didn't work either?" "This BOSS... is indeed a bit tricky."

From within the Demon Aggregate's flesh, a low and hoarse laugh suddenly broke out. "Hahaha...!" "It's useless! It's useless!"

"My existence is beyond your comprehension!" "No matter how you attack, you cannot harm this Demon King in the slightest!"

That mass of flesh began to writhe slowly, pushing forward. Hideous claws reached out from the flesh, dragging the corpses on the ground, severed limbs, and even the corpses of Dark Church members who were still struggling, all into that mass of flesh.

Crack! Crack! The sound of bones shattering made one's scalp tingle. [Life Furnace]!

Those corpses dragged into the flesh were like fuel thrown into a furnace. Instantly digested and absorbed, they became part of the flesh. The Demon Aggregate's volume expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"This Demon King will devour everything!" "All of you will become part of this Demon King!"

Lu Yuan silently took out a golden eye from his space ring. [Golden Pupil] [Epic Equipment] [Effect: Inspects the target's detailed attributes]

He moved his mind slightly, and the Golden Pupil emitted circles of golden ripples, enveloping the Demon Aggregate. Detailed information about the BOSS flooded into his mind like flowing water.

...

[Life Furnace: The Demon Aggregate can devour corpses to form false "Life Flesh." To deal real damage to it, one must first completely destroy the "false body."]

[Substitute: Consumes "Life Flesh" to form a substitute; the substitute will take damage on behalf of the main body.] [Life Shield: ...]

...

After reading it, a flash of light shone in Lu Yuan's eyes. "So that's it." "What Goblin and I just attacked was not its main body at all. It was the false body." "Those corpses are its shield."

Demon Pill was a bit annoyed, "But this guy is too big; even knowing this, it's hard for me to smash through this layer of false skin."

Lu Yuan's mouth lifted, "When it comes to size, I have another candidate." Saying that, he snapped his fingers lightly. "Hum——!"

A huge golden summoning formation suddenly bloomed above the ruins of the Dark Church headquarters! The light was boundless. The next second, a golden skeleton giant over ten thousand meters tall descended with a bang from the formation!

"Boom——!" Its feet landed, and the entire earth shook violently. Little Skeleton's voice came from the clouds like a great bell. "Master, what are your orders?"

Lu Yuan raised his hand and pointed at the Demon Aggregate below that was frantically devouring corpses. "Stomp it to death." "As you command, my Master."

Boom——!!! The golden giant foot fell like Mount Tai pressing down on the top. The Demon Aggregate raised its head, looking at the golden sole that blocked out the sky, and roared frantically.

"No——!!!" "This Demon King is invincible!!" "——Squish!"

The golden foot, as if crushing a bug, slammed the Demon Aggregate's massive mass of flesh hard into the ground! Fluids splattered! Flesh flew everywhere!

The entire ground trembled violently, and cracks spread in all directions like a spiderweb. Dust and smoke shot into the sky. After a long while, the dust and smoke slowly dissipated.

In place, only a pool of crushed flesh remained. "No——!!!" Accompanied by a shrill scream, a blood-red caterpillar crawled out of that pool of mud.
