Chapter 729 - Three-Way Battle

Inside the Abyssal Wood Demon King's tomb, Leon, the Arch Demon-level Mother Hellbiter, and the endless army of wood creatures entered a three-way battle.

Boom!

The Arch Demon-level Mother Hellbiter slammed into a sea of wood creatures with tremendous force, causing the entire tomb to shake as the ceiling began to crumble with falling debris.

The Mother Hellbiter crushed hundreds of wood creatures with its immense body as it went for Leon, who evaded quickly with spatial displacement.

He continued to bear the brunt of the Mother Hellbiter's killing intent while making his escape with a solemn look.

It was not an opponent he could take lightly.

'I have to go all out!' Leon determined.

Shinggg—!

Leon swung the tier-7 sword and sent out a sharp wave of sword intent, cleaving apart a long row of wood creatures and clearing a path for him to move.

The divine weapon was his life-saving grace.

Each swing bought him two seconds' worth of movement in the space-limited and collapsing tomb, brimming with wood creatures.

Blood splattered, and Leon quickly absorbed the blood essence, restoring his stamina.

Screee!

Seeing Leon getting further away, the Mother Hellbiter cried with fury before chasing after him.

However, the wood creatures didn't just target Leon but also the Mother Hellbiter, who they viewed as an enemy.

The Mother Hellbiter's large frame was quickly drowned in the sea of wood creatures as they tried to overwhelm it with numbers.

However, the Mother Hellbiter's natural defense was far too high for their attacks to deal any damage, even if they had numbers.

The fruitless hindrance only fueled the Mother Hellbiter's fury.

Screee!

With another screeching cry, the Mother Hellbiter flung half the wood creatures off its body with sheer strength before ramming the other half into the wall.

Boom!

The wood creatures died instantly under the Mother Hellbiter's immense force and weight, and the entire tomb shook wildly.

Larger debris dropped from the ceiling and crushed several to dozens of wood creatures at a time and sent the wood creature army in disarray.

Leon saw the wood creatures attack the fallen debris and discovered the wood creatures' defect, their low intelligence.

Nevertheless, it was the least of his concern.

For every two sword swings he used to clear the path, Leon swung one wave of sword intent at the Mother Hellbiter to whittle it down.

Cling—!

The sword intent clashed against the Mother Hellbiter's hard shell, and the entire space reverberated with a metallic ring.

Hundreds of wood creatures were caught in the sword intent's path, but at the end of it, only a white mark was made on the Mother Hellbiter.

The divine weapon was, by no means, weak. In fact, it is very strong. But, unfortunately, the user is too weak to exhibit its full potential.

'It seems like the sword intent's strength was diminished by the wood creatures caught in between,' Leon furrowed his brows in thought.

If he wanted to deal more significant damage to the Mother Hellbiter, he would either have to clear out the wood creatures first or cut the Arch Demon-level spider directly with the divine weapon.

'It's not possible to clear the wood creatures when the second trial ground continues to produce them. However, I can't cut the Mother Hellbiter directly either.'

Leon frowned.

He was stuck with an impasse.

If he was even slightly careless, a single hit from the Mother Hellbiter was all it was going to take to shatter all his bones and organs and paralyze him—if it doesn't kill him outright.

'The Mother Hellbiter is too fast. It's too difficult to evade its blows up close. But it's also true that the only way to hurt it is to cut with the divine sword directly.'

Leon's brain churned for a solution as he continued his hit-and-run tactic.

In a short instance, he came up with two solutions.

The first choice was to wait for the tomb to collapse before locating the power source that supplies the wood creature's production and cutting it off.

However, doing so was also the same as cutting off his infinite supply of stamina.

There was no telling how long it would take to kill Mother Hellbiter purely with sword intent alone, not to mention it was inefficient.

It was like having an ultimate weapon but only using its sheath to attack.

The tier-7 divine sword's greatest attack power can only be demonstrated when he attacks with both the blade and sword intent simultaneously.

In the end, the first solution was no good.

'I guess I can only go with the second solution. Since the Mother Hellbiter is fast for me to enter close combat, I just have to slow it down!'

Leon's eyes flickered with a determined glint.

"Fusion law; gravity!"

The power of gravity was exerted on the Mother Hellbiter, increasing its weight by twofold… threefold… fivefold!

The Mother Hellbiter's large body immediately slumped down, and the ground beneath cracked underneath the immense pressure.

All the wood creatures caught in the gravity field were also pinned into the ground.

Swoosh—!

Leon flashed to the side of the Mother Hellbiter before he made a clean cut at one of its huge legs with the divine sword coated in sword intent.

Shinggg!

The tier-7 divine sword directly sliced through Mother Hellbiter's leg without resistance. It was truly a divine weapon for a reason.

The sharpness of its blade was extraordinary.

Boom!

The chopped leg dropped to the ground with a loud thud, akin to a large boulder landing after being hurled by a giant.

The Mother Hellbiter screeched in pain and retaliated with its other legs immediately, wanting to stomp him to death, but unfortunately, it was too slow to catch Leon.

With a quick step, he dashed out of its way.

Gravity field affected everything inside its range, himself included, but it was also easily nullified by wrapping himself in a protective layer of Nihility.

BOOM!

An unbelievable amount of force struck the ground where Leon was, and the entire floor underneath shattered from its destructiveness.

Leon's eyes almost popped out of their sockets due to his shock.

The gravity field may have reduced the Mother Hellbiter's speed, but it also amplified its attack power!

A single hit, and he'll be on his way to heaven.
