154: Fighting the fourth-level peak monster

“Excellent!” Mu Feng shouted.

He shook the Azure Dragon Flag in his hand, switching to close-combat mode.

Several consecutive thrusts.

He intended to break through the Giant Foot Octopus’s arm attacks by focusing his attacks on a single point.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sharp spearhead collided with the giant arms.

Several dull thuds were heard.

Immediately after, Mu Feng’s body was sent flying.

Although his idea was good, he overlooked the power disparity between the two.

A Peak Fourth-tier Yao Beast was not something he, whose Physical Body strength had just broken through Qi Refining Level Eleven, could compare to.

Even with the close-combat bonus from the Azure Dragon Flag!

“Such powerful strength, such high defense; truly worthy of a Peak Fourth-tier Yao Beast!”

Loosening his numb arm, Mu Feng praised.

Fortunately, he didn’t choose to resist head-on in the end.

Instead, he used the force to fly away.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been as simple as just a numb arm.

The Giant Foot Octopus’s attack missed.

Its small eyes showed some confusion.

It hadn’t expected Mu Feng to be able to retreat safely under its fierce attack.

It shook its arms and continued to charge at Mu Feng.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Before its body arrived, eight strong arm-feet were already lashing towards Mu Feng’s face.

Having learned his lesson once, Mu Feng naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to clash with it head-on again.

His body shook, and a small Huangluo Umbrella flew out.

With the umbrella’s enhancement, Mu Feng’s speed dramatically increased.

Using the acceleration, Mu Feng retreated, immediately escaping the octopus’s fierce assault!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

As soon as he retreated, before he could even counterattack, two thick arms of the Giant Foot Octopus swung towards his face again.

These two arms were too fast and unexpected.

Mu Feng had no way to dodge.

Fortunately, he had rich combat experience.

He had activated multiple layers of shields on his body in advance.

Even so, he was still sent flying like a top by the Giant Foot Octopus’s two thick arms.

Mu Feng only heard a “thud,” and he was hundreds of meters away from the Giant Foot Octopus.

Fortunately, he had the Huangluo Umbrella and sword shield protecting him.

Although this blow looked messy, he didn’t suffer any obvious damage.

Instead, he used this immense force to catch his breath.

He had somewhat underestimated the Giant Foot Octopus’s speed earlier.

He thought of playing around in close combat, but ended up getting trapped.

Fortunately, his defense was high enough.

If it were an ordinary person, just these two encounters would have turned them into shredded meat floss.

Pulling back the distance, Mu Feng changed his Magic Treasure.

The silver battle flag in his hand immediately transformed into an oversized silver spear, over twenty meters long.

After his magic power surged, the spear’s size grew considerably.

It was roughly as thick and long as the Giant Foot Octopus.

On the spear body, an Azure Dragon seemed to be swimming.

“Go!” Mu Feng clenched his hand in the air and fiercely threw the long spear.

“Howl!”

The long spear left his hand and immediately transformed into a soaring Evil Jiao.

After a roar, it opened its gaping maw and fiercely bit towards the Giant Foot Octopus.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Facing an Evil Jiao no smaller than itself, the Giant Foot Octopus did not panic.

Its eight arms swung ceaselessly, like a fan, continuously slapping the Azure Dragon’s face.

Its power was immense.

With each slap, the azure light on the Evil Jiao’s body weakened a bit.

Under the continuous slapping of the eight arms, the Evil Jiao was shattered into pieces and reverted to a silver long spear before it even touched the octopus.

“Hiss…”

“What terrifying power.”

Mu Feng gasped, startled by the Giant Foot Octopus’s power.

Since he obtained the Azure Dragon Flag, this throwing Move had always been effective.

Today was its first failure.

The Giant Foot Octopus’s strength was a bit beyond his imagination.

Although he still had backup plans, the Giant Foot Octopus had only used one Move so far.

Mu Feng was unsure if he could defeat it.

“Pfft!”

Just as he said the opponent only used one skill, the Giant Foot Octopus opened its mouth.

Pitch-black ink instantly turned the entire seawater murky.

As soon as his Divine Sense touched it, it was immediately swallowed without a trace.

This ink not only blocked Divine Sense detection but also devoured Divine Sense!

He just took a glance, and most of his Divine Sense was swallowed.

Frightened, he quickly retracted all his Divine Sense back into his body.

“Not good!”

As soon as his Divine Sense was retracted, an ominous premonition arose in his heart.

Mu Feng didn’t even think, immediately jumping up at full speed!

“Pfft!”

As soon as he jumped up, a thick octopus arm swept towards where his body had been.

The suckers on it were at full power, turning the spot where he had just stood as bare as if it had been touched by a vacuum cleaner.

Whether it was gravel, seaweed, or coral, everything was pulverized!

If he hadn’t reacted quickly, he might have become nutrients for the seabed.

Even with the Huangluo Umbrella protecting him, he probably couldn’t have escaped the entanglement of its demonic grip.

The ink was still spraying.

His visible range decreased again.

The giant octopus was now out of sight.

Mu Feng didn’t know when it would attack again.

“Eye of Insight, activate!”

Mu Feng swam erratically while channeling spiritual power into his eyes.

Soon, his eyes became profound and clear.

The originally murky water became clear under the gaze of his Spiritual Eye.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

As soon as his vision recovered, the giant octopus’s attack struck again.

Mu Feng tapped his feet several times, deftly avoiding the attack.

Then, he twisted his hand, and a Red Thread Escaping Light Needle appeared in his grasp.

With another flick, it disappeared into the water again.

When it reappeared, it was already at the giant octopus’s eye.

“Pfft!”

Affected by the ink, the Giant Foot Octopus’s vision was greatly reduced.

By the time it reacted, the Red Thread Escaping Light Needle had already reached its eyeball.

It was too late to dodge.

It could only desperately close its eye, attempting to use its eyelid to counter the small Red Thread Escaping Light Needle’s attack!

However, the eye was inherently the most fragile spot.

The thin eyelid was completely useless.

With a soft 'thud', the sharp Red Thread Escaping Light Needle pierced into its eyeball.

“Awooo!”

With its eyeball pierced, the giant octopus let out a cry of pain.

Its entire body thrashed continuously.

Its eight arms swept towards Mu Feng like a fan.

In pain and fury, it wanted to tear Mu Feng, the human who had pierced its eyeball, into pieces!

“Bind!”

Mu Feng waved his palm.

Several thick blue chains appeared on several of the Giant Foot Octopus’s arms.

This Move was the Water Binding Technique, which he hadn’t used in a long time.

After Foundation Establishment, his magic power condensed.

The Water Binding Technique’s power was much stronger than before.

Coupled with the abundant water elements at the bottom of the sea, the Water Binding Technique’s chains actually managed to bind the Giant Foot Octopus’s arms.

Although it was only for less than half a second before the Giant Foot Octopus broke free, it was enough for Mu Feng to escape its attack.

With its vision impaired, the frenzied Giant Foot Octopus didn’t know that Mu Feng had already escaped its attack range and was still fiercely attacking the area where he had just been.

Countless corals and seaweeds were scattered everywhere, creating a unique scene.

However, Mu Feng was not in the mood to admire the scenery now.

At this moment, he was wholeheartedly injecting all his magic power into the Black Emperor Blade, the Magic Treasure within his body!

“Go!”

As Mu Feng’s words fell, a black light burst from his body!

It slashed fiercely towards the frenzied Giant Foot Octopus in the distance!

(It’s been a long time since I asked for gifts, asking for a gift, hehe.)
