CHAPTER 1020: GREAT WINGED DEMON

Chapter 1020: Great Winged Demon

Tanaka Ryūseki revealed his ability.

Beast-type ability user, Yamata no Orochi!

A giant monster standing over a hundred meters tall appeared before Lu Huang and Li Yue.

Lu Huang's gaze sharpened as he felt an astonishing pressure emanating from the monster before him.

"Haha, hahaha!"

He covered his face with one hand, actually laughing maniacally.

Overwhelming black demonic energy overflowed from his entire body, soaring into the sky like smoke signals.

Simultaneously, his body underwent visible changes.

His height rapidly grew from one meter sixty to over two meters tall in the blink of an eye!

His pale skin began to take on a dark coloration, his arms and claws elongated, especially his hands which had completely lost their human appearance, transforming into demonic talons!

That exquisite, porcelain doll-like pale face also developed crack-like patterns as if it might shatter at any moment, with large amounts of black energy leaking out from the cracks, coiling around his body.

"Whoosh!"

Two enormous demonic black wings pierced through his combat suit from his back, violently spreading open!

With a flap of his wings, Lu Huang directly soared into the air.

And because of the Love and Sincerity ability, Li Yue also shared the flight capability, growing two transparent wings on her back as she followed closely behind him.

Demon Squad captain, Taotie Lu Huang, special-type ability user.

Ability codename: Great Winged Heavenly Demon.

The probing phase had ended, both Tanaka Ryūseki and Lu Huang had unleashed their true power.

In Lu Huang's right hand, the Great Demon Sword forged from white bone also seemed to come alive, stained with a pitch-black color.

"Thump thump~"

Black flesh wrapped around the sword blade, and a ferocious vertical pupil appeared at the hilt, its eyeball constantly rotating.

"Kill!!"

Yamata no Orochi's eight heads erupted with violent roars, then the heads merely pulled back before violently charging toward the Great Winged Heavenly Demon in midair! 𝙧аƝοᛒƐṦ

The eight heads were covered with sharp white barbs, like eight long swords.

Lu Huang gripped the Great Demon Sword and shot upward, directly confronting Yamata no Orochi's eight heads!

The collision of power was incredibly brutal.

He gripped the massive demonic blade with both hands, fiercely slashing at every head that assaulted him.

As the sword edge swept through, scales fell from the serpent heads.

However, his opponent had eight heads total, each moving with lightning speed!

From a distance, it looked like a giant pile driver continuously hammering at that tiny figure in midair.

Lu Huang's eyes showed no fear; instead, they glowed crimson as he grew more ferocious with each battle.

Yet in this contest of strength, he was still at a severe disadvantage.

He only had two hands and one sword, while his opponent had eight heads!

"Slice!"

He desperately cleaved through one serpent head's neck, blood gushing out like a waterfall from midair!

Two other heads from left and right immediately closed in to attack.

With a flap of his heavenly demon wings, he swiftly dodged their assaults.

But from above and below, more serpent heads attacked.

Tanaka Ryūseki's superhuman ability index was originally higher than Lu Huang's, and even with Li Yue's enhancement, he couldn't gain an advantage in combat.

When both were close-combat superhumans, even the slightest disadvantage would be infinitely amplified.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Once Lu Huang was struck hard by one head, it was followed by continuous attacks from other heads without a moment's pause!

Lu Huang was violently thrown backward, crashing toward the ground like a cannonball.

Li Yue followed closely behind, her eyes blazing with white light.

Love and Sincerity—love meant devotion, giving everything to heal the wounds of the one she loved.

Though Lu Huang was deeply embedded in the ground, his injuries were rapidly healed by Li Yue.

But Tanaka Ryūseki wouldn't give him any chance to catch his breath.

The eight heads aimed at Lu Huang and Li Yue like pile drivers, then with a simple backward pull, they madly plunged downward!

Lying in the deep crater, Lu Huang saw this and raised his right hand.

The crimson in his pupils intensified, his originally normal pupils actually twisting into terrifying vertical pupils.

A black and red glow rapidly condensed in his palm, finally forming a sphere the size of his palm.

"Demonic Cannon!"

This power violently erupted from his palm, shooting toward Yamata no Orochi's body in the air!

There might be eight heads, but there was only one body.

Caught off guard, Yamata no Orochi took this attack head-on, immediately forced backward some distance.

Black smoke coiled around his chest, yet after the dust cleared, no wound could be seen.

Only the scales there were slightly deformed.

Beast-type ability users of divine beast species would obtain the purest and most powerful abilities.

Lu Huang shot up from the ground, with Li Yue closely following behind him.

"In close combat, we're at too much of a disadvantage. With that kind of body, even if we land a strike, it might not be fatal. Moreover, we don't know which head is his true body," Li Yue reminded Lu Huang.

Lu Huang stared coldly at the giant monstrous serpent. "If we can't find it, then we'll just cut off all eight heads, won't that solve it?"

Hearing these words, Yamata no Orochi just sneered, "Arrogant brat, I'll bite you to death right now!"

After slightly adjusting his posture, he charged forward again!

His attack method was extremely simple, without any flashy techniques.

He simply used his pure, overwhelming power and massive size to crush his opponent!

And Lu Huang's combat style was equally straightforward—direct confrontation!

Gripping the Great Demon Sword, he soared upward.

Though fighting madly, he hadn't lost his rationality, continuously observing Yamata no Orochi's weaknesses.

Among the eight heads, one must be the main body.

But every head looked identical—how should he find it?

"If all else fails, we'll let the dice decide!"

In the heat of battle, there wasn't much time for thinking.

Lu Huang chose the most reliable approach—gambling.

With eight heads, he'd leave it to luck, attacking them one by one.

If his luck was good enough, he might kill his opponent in one try!

"Hah!!!"

Yamata no Orochi charged again, all eight heads launching frenzied attacks at Lu Huang.

Lu Huang raised his left hand, "Continuous Demonic Cannon!"

The black and red condensed demonic cannons blasted toward Yamata no Orochi's heads!

This time, hundreds of demonic cannon shots flew from his palm.

All eight heads came under attack.

This scattered energy assault couldn't cause significant damage, but it effectively delayed Yamata no Orochi's offensive.

Then, gripping the Great Demon Sword, Lu Huang selected the third head from the left and charged forward with a powerful wing flap!
