Chapter 416 - 416 Dying Slug
The slug’s overall rank did not change, but once it became a small slug, its ability to take damage would be greatly reduced. Lin Xuan also grasped the sudden change of plan in time and began to madly electrocute it as a counter.
It was a pity that the slug immortal’s rank was at the peak of earth-rank. Even if Lin Xuan’s lightning power was powerful, it was still too much of an exaggeration to say that he could annihilate such a large number of little slugs in a short time.
The slug immortal was also the first to react. A few of them combined and gradually became larger slugs. The paralyzing effect of the lightning caused it to fall down like a cliff. Soon, hundreds of large slugs appeared in front of Lin Xuan, and the electric effect was no longer effective.
However, the slug’s current state was worsening. The toxicity of the mercury in the air had begun to take effect. It began to wail in pain, constantly expelling the water it had previously absorbed.
The mercury could only do so much. Its effect was at most to suppress the slug’s self-healing ability, causing its condition to fall to a low point.
“I have to say, I’ve underestimated you, Taixia citizen!”
The innocent voice sounded, and this time, Lin Xuan could hear the anger in the tone. It was clear that the slug had not expected the useless setup to have such an effect. It underestimated the power of knowledge.
“It’s not over yet!”
The slug was currently writhing in pain, so Lin Xuan would definitely not let it go.
Internal Explosion Fist!
The terrifying punch contained the powerful Grand Sun Primordial Fire, making use of the power of the flames to make it even harder for the slug to resist.
Lin Xuan’s fist was very hard and heavy, but against a soft-bodied monster like the slug, the effect was limited. Fortunately, there was secondary damage from the internal explosion. The Grand Sun Primordial Fire exploded within the slug’s body, and the high temperature made it even more uncomfortable. It could not help but groan in pain.
His fists were useless!
After throwing a punch at the slug, Lin Xuan immediately realized something else. To deal with a slug, one still had to use a sharp weapon. One had to use a sharp blade to directly cut open its body!
He took out the Flame Blade and slashed at the slug’s body with no mercy.
A wound appeared on the slug’s body, and green blood flowed out slightly. However, the bleeding stopped within a few seconds, and the wound began to heal!
This recovery ability was exceptionally abnormal. One had to know that this was under the condition that the slug’s self-healing ability was restricted. If it wasn’t restricted, the wound would have healed the moment it was cut open, and blood wouldn’t even flow out.
This was a little difficult to deal with. As time passed, the Mercury would dissipate and weaken. Once that happened, the slug’s self-healing ability would no longer be restricted, making it even more difficult for Lin Xuan to kill it.
He had to be fast!
Moreover, the slug had already known about Lin Xuan’s plan. Although he had underestimated Lin Xuan due to his earth-rank strength, he had informed the other two holy lands to secure his footing. Once the reinforcements from the two holy lands arrives, Lin Xuan would have no choice but to retreat.
Lin Xuan activated his full power, and he began to attack the hundreds of large slugs wildly. The Flame Blade was powerful and heavy, and with its own sharpness, it cut the slug in half. The blade was also covered in the Grand Sun Primordial Fire, cooking the slugs along the way.
Lin Xuan’s energy seemed to have changed under his frenzied state. He was somehow dealing more damage to the slugs than before.
Lin Xuan was quick, but the speed of his blade was even quicker. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of slugs were cut in half by Lin Xuan.
They were seriously injured, but they were still far from dying!
The howls of the hundreds of slugs were indescribable, but to Lin Xuan, they were music to his ears. What was next was to crush all the slugs into dust. Only then would he be able to kill the slug immortal.
However, just as Lin Xuan was about to make his move, all of the heavily injured slugs combined together and transformed into a giant slug. Well, it was much smaller than it was at the beginning, so it was a good thing.
Lin Xuan was unable to react in time and was swallowed by the slug. His body sank into the soft slug’s body, and even though he used the Flame Blade to slash his way out, Lin Xuan was unable to destroy this space.
Soon after, Lin Xuan felt some liquid appear all around him. His body came into contact with the liquid, and a sizzling sound was heard.
This was the acid secreted by slugs. It had a very strong corrosive effect and could corrode and digest any object, turning it into its own nutrients. In addition to its powerful self-healing ability, no matter whether the object was alive or dead, it would be difficult for it to escape the long-term corrosion of the acid. The final result would be that he would turn into a lump of nothing…
Lin Xuan’s body was tough enough and had a high resistance to the acid. However, if he was in this state for a long time, no matter how strong his body was, he would eventually fizzle out as well.
He had to break free.
What could he do?
Lin Xuan felt helpless at that moment. This was not easy to deal with. The internal organs of ordinary creatures were basically their weakness. When Lin Xuan first started body training, he also focused on training his internal organs. However, the slug was different. They didn’t have internal organs, so they could only absorb nutrients like this. They used the acid secreted by their bodies to digest everything. In addition, they had amazing self-healing abilities. Even if they were injured, they could quickly recover.
Since he couldn’t cut it, he would explode it!
Lin Xuan was determined. He immediately transformed into a huge Greenwood Thunder Dragon. With the spell that could double his size, a terrifying divine dragon that was beyond everyone’s imagination appeared in this space.
The slug was extremely elastic, but it would be a joke if it was said that it could accommodate a Greenwood Thunder Dragon that was twelve times its size.
In an instant, Lin Xuan burst through its stomach and flew out. Then, his body shrunk, and his pair of dragon claws grabbed at the heavily injured slug immortal.
Several wounds appeared at the same time, and bright green blood flowed out.
The slug immortal knew Lin Xuan’s methods, and even if it was holding on, it did not use the division technique. It had a feeling that once it used the division technique, Lin Xuan would have a way to clear them easily.
Without the division spell, it was on the brink of potential death.
Due to its initial underestimation, it fell into Lin Xuan’s trap. It was not in its peak state at all, and the immortal slug was even worse off than before. Its self-healing ability was limited, it could not use its split ability, and its perception ability… Eh, reinforcements are here?
