274: Zhang Wang Er

After the successful Fusion of Suzuki Hayabusa and Ibaraki Doji, the power that erupted was simply astonishing, leaving all onlookers dumbfounded.

But even with such immense power, it still seemed slightly inferior when facing the massive, mountain-like Crimson Scale Lobster.

When the Crimson Scale Lobster swung its colossal pincers, which seemed forged from steel, in a full-force attack, a terrifying, earth-shattering power surged forth.

The space beneath Suzuki Hayabusa's feet instantly shattered, and bottomless cracks spread rapidly like a spider web.

He himself was shaken by this earth-shattering force and stumbled back several steps before finally managing to steady himself.

At the same time, the wolf fang club he held tightly in his hand also began to tremble slightly, unable to withstand the immense force, as if it could fly out of his grip at any moment.

Seeing this, a hint of disdain flashed in the Crimson Scale Lobster's large, bell-like eyes.

Its enormous body tilted slightly forward, and its other colossal pincer was about to strike, intending to completely crush Suzuki Hayabusa.

But at this critical moment, Sato Ken suddenly dashed forward like lightning.

His entire body's muscles were taut, veins bulging, and with a fierce swing of his right arm, he unleashed a punch with the force of a thunderbolt, meeting the other colossal pincer that was striking out.

In an instant, strong winds howled, and powerful energy surged, the surrounding air becoming turbulent due to the collision of this punch, as if the wind and clouds were surging again.

He knew that no more accidents could happen now, so he chose to fuse with Deity Shakradevanam Indrah.

This was a secret technique of theirs; only by reaching their level could they briefly fuse with their Shikigami, greatly increasing their combat power in a short period.

However, the longer the Fusion lasted, the greater the cost, so they wasted no time and attacked the Crimson Scale Lobster together with all their might.

"Hmph, mere humans, daring to challenge my might!"

The Crimson Scale Lobster let out a deafening roar. It felt the threats from two directions, but they were not enough to make it abandon the opportunity before it.

It decided to end the battle quickly, crushing its opponents with absolute power. In an instant, a fierce battle erupted here again.

Shadow watched from the shadows, clicking his tongue in amazement, but he did not stay to watch the battle. Instead, he quietly left and did not approach Mount Aso.

He was only here to collect saint relics and other resources, not to fight, and naturally, he was not capable of participating in a battle of that level.

However, he was very interested in cleaning up the battlefield afterwards. Since everyone's attention was focused here, he could act in peace.

Above Mount Aso, smoke billowed, and heat rose.

Xuedai Naixue stood on the mountaintop, looking up at the fierce battle in the sky between Sato Ken and Suzuki Hayabusa and the massive Crimson Scale Lobster covered in fiery red scales.

Her beautiful eyes narrowed tightly, filled with tension and worry.

The battle in the sky was exceptionally fierce. Sato Ken's Fist Intent was astonishing, each punch causing space to ripple, allowing him to stand against the Crimson Scale Lobster for a short time.

Meanwhile, Suzuki Hayabusa wielded his large wolf fang club, attacking with wide swings, constantly striking at the Crimson Scale Lobster's vital points.

However, the Crimson Scale Lobster was not to be outdone. It swung its sharp pincers and spewed raging flames from its mouth, forcefully suppressing the two powerful enemies, trying to approach the crater.

But how could Sato Ken and Suzuki Hayabusa agree? Both humans and the beast fought with all their might, having reached a point of no return.

Time passed second by second, and Xuedai Naixue's heart was always in her throat.

Finally, when she saw that Sato Ken and Suzuki Hayabusa had successfully held off the Crimson Scale Lobster, she let out a long sigh of relief.

But immediately after, her brows furrowed slightly, and she murmured to herself, "This guy is so powerful, I'm afraid he's only one step away from that Realm, right?"

After speaking, she fell into contemplation, as if thinking about countermeasures.

After a long while, Xuedai Naixue slowly withdrew her gaze and looked down at the Mount Aso crater below.

Inside the crater, boiling lava churned, like a burning sea of fire.

However, strangely, despite the surging lava, there was no feeling of intense heat. On the contrary, the surroundings faintly exuded a sense of coolness.

Above the rolling lava, a gigantic black egg quietly floated.

The surface of this giant egg was covered with mysterious patterns, and faintly, one could see some kind of creature wriggling inside the eggshell, seemingly ready to break out at any moment.

Xuedai Naixue gazed at the black egg, a hint of anticipation and unease in her eyes.

"Beiye-kun, please hurry up!" Xuedai Naixue murmured softly, her voice unconsciously carrying a hint of anxiety.

Just then, she suddenly felt an unusual aura and abruptly looked up at the sky.

Exactly above the crater, a crystal-clear jade jar was suspended at some point.

The mouth of this jade jar was facing downwards, emitting a faint light, as if enveloping the entire space of the crater.

"It's not over yet?"

Before she could recover from her shock, a gentle and kind voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

However, this voice was like a bolt from the blue for Naixue, causing her delicate body to tremble violently.

She subconsciously lowered her head and saw a slender figure had quietly appeared there at some point.

It was a man dressed in white, his posture tall and straight, his temperament extraordinary and refined, like an Immortal descending to the world.

Although his aura was perfectly restrained and he looked no different from an ordinary person, Naixue still keenly sensed something unusual.

The moment she saw the man's face clearly, Xuedai Naixue's beautiful pupils contracted sharply.

"Elder Wang Er, you..."

Her forehead was instantly covered in fine sweat, and even her fair skin, which was as smooth and delicate as jade and mutton fat, trembled slightly from tension and fear.

"Nine-tailed..." After a brief moment of absentmindedness, Xuedai Naixue finally managed to regain her composure.

Her heart was filled with dread, and she instinctively wanted to summon her Shikigami, the Nine-tailed Fox Woman, to assist her.

However, just as she was about to summon her, she was ruthlessly interrupted.

Elder Wang Er's figure flashed, appearing in front of Xuedai Naixue like a ghost in an instant.

His movements were as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he had firmly grasped Xuedai Naixue's slender and tender neck.

At the same time, a terrifying, suffocating pressure swept over her like a tidal wave, completely engulfing Xuedai Naixue.

"I can't play with you right now~"

Elder Wang Er's lips curved slightly, revealing a faint smile.

But this smile, in Xuedai Naixue's eyes, was so cold and biting that it sent shivers down her spine.
