106: Sky Splitting, Abyssal Poison VS Bone-Eroding Scorpion

The enormous body of the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion flickered in and out of the dark green poisonous mist, exuding a heart-palpitating sense of oppression.

Each opening and closing of its massive pincers brought forth a piercing sound of rushing wind, and their tips gleamed with a faint green light, clearly containing potent venom.

Most terrifying was its highly raised tail stinger, resembling a poisoned, curved hook.

Visible strands of dark green Rule Power swirled around it, and the mere escaping aura caused the surrounding dark red rocks to emit a 'sizzling' sound, rapidly corroding into pits.

"Riekong Renyi! Abyssal Venom! Stop it!"

Lin Feng's eyes were sharp, showing no hint of retreat.

Two figures instantly appeared before him.

On the left was the Lie Kong Blade Wing Alien; its body was slender, with a streamlined black carapace that shimmered with a cold, metallic luster in the dim light. A pair of huge, bone-like wings, sharp as blades, vibrated slightly behind it, emitting a high-frequency hum, as if they could cleave through space at any moment.

On the right was the Abyssal Poison Earth-Shaking Alien, even larger and heavier in build, with a deep dark purple carapace covered in spikes and grooves. Its four limbs were thick and powerful, each step causing the ground to tremble slightly, and its mouthparts spewed out a thick purple poisonous mist with strong paralyzing and corrosive properties.

"Roar!"

The Abyssal Poison Earth-Shaking Alien was the first to attack. It stomped forward abruptly, its thick forelimbs, imbued with immense power, slammed heavily onto the ground!

"Boom!"

A visible earthen-yellow shockwave spread out in a ring, cracking the ground and sending debris flying wherever it passed, attempting to shake the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion's base and restrict its movement.

At the same time, it opened its massive mouth, and a dense purple poisonous mist poured out like a waterfall towards the scorpion's face, attempting to fight poison with poison!

However, the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion merely let out a disdainful hiss.

Its tail, covered in a thick carapace, swept lightly, and dark green Rule Power instantly condensed, forming a thin curtain of light.

"Sizzle!"

The purple poisonous mist, of which the Abyssal Poison Earth-Shaking Alien was so proud, struck the dark green light curtain, and like snow meeting boiling water, it was easily decomposed and dissolved by the dark green energy containing corrosive rules, failing to even stir a ripple!

That dark green energy, imbued with corrosive rules, possessed an overwhelming suppressive power against ordinary poisons.

At the same time, the Lie Kong Blade Wing Alien moved!

Its figure left an afterimage in place, and its blade-wings vibrated at high frequency, erupting in a piercing sonic boom!

It transformed into a black lightning bolt, difficult for the naked eye to catch, cutting in from the blind spot at the side-rear of the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion. Its incomparably sharp tail blade tore through the air, striking directly at the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion's relatively weaker joint connections!

"Clang!"

A crisp, ear-splitting sound of metal clashing exploded!

Sparks flew!

The Xeno-Rift Aliens' determined strike was actually precisely blocked by the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion's seemingly clumsy but lightning-fast massive pincers!

Dark green Rule Power flowed over the pincers, and the Xeno-Rift Aliens' tail blade, capable of tearing steel, only left a shallow white mark on it, completely unable to break through the defense!

"Roar!"

The Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion seemed enraged. Its huge pincers suddenly exerted force, flinging the Xeno-Rift Aliens violently away.

The Xeno-Rift Aliens agilely flipped in the air, its blade-wings cutting through the air to stabilize its body, but its aura noticeably faltered. Immediately after, the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion's deadly tail stinger shot out like a venomous dragon emerging from its lair, accompanied by a space-tearing shriek and dense dark green poisonous mist, stabbing with incredible precision towards the Xeno-Rift Aliens, who had just landed!

"Abyssal Venom! Earth-Shaking Shield!"

Lin Feng roared.

The Abyssal Poison Earth-Shaking Alien's massive body abruptly shifted sideways, blocking in front of Riekong Renyi. It crossed its arms in front of its body, and its entire thick, dark purple carapace instantly glowed with an earthen-yellow light. Layers of energy shields, as thick as rock, stacked up in front of it, attempting to withstand this Rule Power-infused strike!

"Pfft! Crackle!"

The Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion's tail stinger stabbed fiercely into the energy shield!

The seemingly solid earthen-yellow shield, upon contact with the dark green Rule Power entwined around the tail stinger, shattered layer by layer like fragile glass!

The tail stinger's momentum slightly decreased, but it still carried irresistible power, striking heavily into the Abyssal Poison Earth-Shaking Alien's crossed, blocking arms!

"Roar!"

The Abyssal Poison Earth-Shaking Alien let out an extremely painful roar.

Its proud, thick carapace, capable of withstanding siege rams, was like meeting its nemesis in the face of that trace of corrosive rule!

Although the tail stinger did not completely pierce through, the struck area instantly turned charred black, and the dark green corrosive energy spread rapidly like a living thing. The carapace emitted a 'sizzling' dissolving sound, and pungent white smoke billowed out!

The immense force also sent its entire massive body staggering backward, plowing two deep furrows in the ground. The Xeno-Rift Aliens seized the opportunity, its blade-wings vibrating wildly, once again transforming into a black lightning bolt, launching a storm-like attack from various tricky angles.

Its speed was an advantage, and its sharp claw blades and tail blade left deep scratches on the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion's carapace, occasionally even piercing into the carapace seams, bringing forth a trickle of green blood.

But the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion's defense was truly astonishing, and the dense poisonous mist surrounding its body was also a continuous erosion and interference for the Xeno-Rift Aliens.

Even more troublesome was that whenever the Xeno-Rift Aliens attempted to attack a vital point, the pair of massive pincers and the deadly tail stinger could always defend in time, forcing it back.

The Abyssal Poison Earth-Shaking Alien endured the intense pain and rejoined the battle, attempting to disrupt the scorpion with pure brute force and earth-shaking waves.

But its attacks appeared clumsy and slow in front of the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion. Often, before an attack landed, the scorpion's tail stinger or pincers would already counterattack with deadly threat.

The corrosive wounds on its body were constantly expanding, and its movements visibly slowed. For a time, the combined efforts of two Gold-level peak Xeno-Rift Aliens were steadily suppressed by the Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion!

Riekong Renyi's speed was countered by the poisonous mist and rule defense, while Abyssal Venom's defense and strength were penetrated by the rule corrosion. The battle situation was precarious, with both Xeno-Rift Aliens in constant danger, several times almost having their heads pierced by the scorpion's tail stinger or being snapped in half by its pincers!

The aftermath of the battle and that terrifying rule aura, like a lighthouse in the dark night, quickly attracted participants from the nearby area.

Figures appeared on rocky highlands or in hidden spots at the edge of the battlefield, their gazes intently fixed on the fierce duel.

"Hiss... Is that Chen Feng's Bone-Corroding Poison Scorpion? It truly lives up to its reputation! That corrosive Rule Power is too overbearing!"

"To be able to touch the fringes of rules at Gold-level, he truly is Elder Chen's grandson. The foundation built with resources is indeed different."

"Who is that opposite him? Lin Feng? Is that the guy for whom the association's higher-ups made an exception to wait?"

"His summoned beast... looks quite strong too. That speed and power are definitely top-tier among Gold-level! What a pity..."

"Pity what? Didn't you see him getting beaten? Two Gold-level peaks struggling so much against just one, almost getting killed several times!"

"This is the 'genius' the higher-ups value? Is this his level? Can't even beat Chen Feng? Are the association's higher-ups senile?"

"Tsk, we waited so long for nothing, just to watch him get thrashed? What a waste of emotion. I can't understand why the higher-ups would postpone the Genius Battle for such 'trash'?"

Discussions rose and fell, most carrying undisguised contempt and ridicule.
