Versatile Mage: I have 999 talents!

Chapter 273 The Twin Stars of Baxia Hammer... (Dark Turmoil Begins)
"What kind of monster is that? Is it also a siren?" A young mage's eyes widened, and he forgot to maintain his ice magic.

The old mage beside him narrowed his eyes: "No, it looks like they are the mortal enemies of those two calamity beasts!"

He suddenly gasped, “Wait, look at that giant beast’s back—there’s someone there!”

Following the direction, everyone looked and saw Wang Feng's figure standing proudly on the mountain-like back armor of Baxia.

In the torrential rain, his trench coat fluttered in the wind, and his body was surrounded by a chilling magical aura.

"What are you all standing there for!" the leading commander roared, his voice carrying across the entire battlefield via sonic magic. "Countless sea monsters are still rampaging within the city. Immediately execute the planned evacuation!"

This rebuke was like a thunderclap, waking everyone from their shock.

The mages quickly regrouped, and various magical lights shone brightly again in the rain.

...

On the main battlefield, Qiu Chi stood like a mountain in front of Qiu Hui, forcefully taking the brunt of Ba Xia's violent water cannon attack, which was powerful enough to shatter cliffs.

The bony spikes on its back suddenly sprang up, standing out like the sharp blades of a sword-backed sea dragon, each tooth-like bone gleaming with a cold, icy light.

"Roar--!!"

With a deafening roar, Qiu Chi suddenly arched his back, burying his head deep into his chest and abdomen.

At this moment, it resembles an ancient rhinoceros covered in bone spurs, its entire back transformed into a deadly jungle of weapons.

Baxia's eyes burned with fighting spirit, and it charged forward, its four legs shattering the rock layers.

The moment the two colossal beasts collided, a terrifying shockwave exploded in a ring, instantly denting the sea surface for miles around into a giant bowl shape.

The sword spine of the Prisoner tore through the air, piercing towards Baxia with a piercing shriek, but sparks flew when it touched the divine body.

"嚄——!!!"

Baxia's body shone with a bright brown light, and ancient totem patterns flowed across its scales.

Its body grew heavier and heavier in the divine light, and its four legs sank deep into the seabed, actually pressing the seabed, which was hundreds of feet in diameter, into an indestructible rocky domain.

No matter how hard Qiu Chi exerted himself, his towering body remained completely still.

Just as the stalemate was at hand, the sea suddenly began to boil.

Qiu Zi's body, covered in lava patterns, crept silently forward under the cover of steam, a sinister glint flashing in his single crimson eye.

Using the turbid waves stirred up by the struggle between the two giant beasts as cover, it burst out of the water like a ghost from behind Qiu Chi.
"Ha, so you have no sportsmanship, huh? You even resort to sneak attacks?"

Wang Feng sneered and raised his right hand slightly. In an instant, the air in Qiu Gui's path of sprinting solidified, turning into an invisible barrier.

"Boom——!!!"

Qiu Gui's steam-shrouded body crashed heavily against the air wall with a dull thud.

Its ferocious face was twisted and deformed by the impact, and its whole body was bounced away like a ball, leaving a long white wave on the sea.

"Wow!"

Amidst the splashing water, Qiu Gui tumbled back into the sea in a disheveled state.

It roared angrily, steam billowing from its body, but dared not advance rashly any further.

Wang Feng stood with his arms crossed, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

With his strength, dealing with these two calamity beasts would be a piece of cake.

But he clearly remembered that it was these two despicable brothers who ambushed Baxia back then, forcing Baxia to come to the sea outside Asuka City to recuperate.

When Qiu Chi realized that his companion had been thwarted, he roared and the bone spurs on his back grew even larger, trying to force Baxia back.

However, Baxia was filled with fighting spirit at this moment. Its four legs were rooted to the ground. No matter how Qiu Chi charged, it did not move. Instead, it let out a low roar and its brown light suddenly burst out, pressing down like a mountain collapsing!
"boom--!"

With a deafening roar, the seabed rock strata crumbled under the immense force of Baxia. Qiuchi's prized sword spine twisted and deformed under the terrifying pressure, emitting a chilling "crack" sound as it broke.

"Roar—!!!" Qiu Chi roared in pain, and tens of thousands of dark red demonic leeches suddenly shot out from the crevices of his spine.

These parasites spread like a blood mist, frantically attacking Baxia.

Normally, the venom from these exploding leeches would be enough to slowly corrode Baxia's stone armor, which is comparable to the Heavenly Rock—this is the insidious method by which the two calamity beasts were able to severely injure the Supreme Monarch with the body of a Great Monarch!

But things are different now!
"Heavenly Flame - Burning!"

Wang Feng let out a cold shout, and his hands suddenly erupted with eerie, blood-red flames.

With a wave of his arms, crimson flames spread out like a curtain in the sky, instantly engulfing the countless demonic leeches.

Wherever the flames passed, even the seawater was evaporated into white mist, and those deadly parasites didn't even leave behind ashes.

Wang Feng stood with his arms crossed, in mid-air, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Baxia, don't rush, take your time."

"No one can take their lives away today."

"—Except for you."

……

Although Baxia's attack power wasn't outstanding among supreme monarchs, its terrifying body, comparable to a mountain, and its impenetrable defense still caused Qiu Chi and Qiu Gui considerable trouble.
Under Wang Feng's domain blockade, the two calamity beasts had no chance to escape and could only grit their teeth and face the enraged behemoth head-on.

boom! boom! boom!
Baxia launched attacks time and again using the most primitive and violent methods.

Its massive, pillar-like foot stomped down heavily, crushing Qiu Chi's bone swords one by one.

Its tortoise shell, comparable to a meteorite, struck violently, causing Qiu Hui's steam-covered scales to shatter piece by piece.

The screams of the two monstrous beasts echoed through the sky, but they could not change their fate of being crushed.

Finally, after Baxia's countless violent impacts, Qiu Chi and Qiu Gui's bodies were completely deformed, as if they had been crushed by a 10,000-ton hydraulic press, turning into a pool of indistinct flesh, rising and falling with the waves, looking like two huge "handmade fish balls".

Having avenged his great grudge, Baxia roared to the sky, the sound so powerful that it shook the clouds apart.

It flicked its tail contentedly, and the gloom that had been building up in its eyes was finally swept away.

After nodding to Wang Feng, the giant beast slowly sank into the sea and swam towards Asuka City—it still had to go back to continue its role as a "sea guard"!

...

With the fall of Qiu Chi and Qiu Chi, the storm cloud that had shrouded Xiamen for several days finally began to dissipate.

The thick clouds seemed to be slowly parted by an invisible hand, and the long-awaited sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds onto the devastated city.

The torrential rain gradually subsided, leaving only a few raindrops gently tapping the surface of the water.

Throughout the city, the remaining sirens still roamed the flooded streets. But without the rule of the two great monarchs, these sirens were clearly in chaos.

Some spun around in place, some started tearing at each other, and many more fled in panic as the tide receded.

"Attention, all squads!" The command from headquarters echoed throughout the city via communicators. "Begin clearing out the remaining sea monsters! Prioritize the safety of the shelters!"

The monks all sprang into action.

Without the threat of the monarch-level sea monsters, and with the seawater receding rapidly, these sea monsters have greatly reduced their strength.

Ice mages froze retreat routes, lightning mages precisely targeted and eliminated enemies, and earth mages began repairing the breached dikes—the entire city was restoring order at an astonishing speed.

P.S.: A dark upheaval occurred on Q-Reading today. Those interested can check it out on Dragon's Sky.

(The author has become a victim of exploitation; this happened around this time last June, and I didn't expect it to happen again this year!)

I have no heart for writing anymore, time to fight!
