Chapter 254: Heavenly Behemoth
The wind is howling and sand and rocks are flying!
Alan had to raise his hands to shield his eyes from the wind and sand.
The towering mountains seemed to have been flattened by some supernatural force, forming a flat and desolate plateau.
The wind howled all day long, the dust rolled everywhere, and the whole place was in chaos.
Looking around, there is no trace of green that symbolizes life.
This desolate land far away from the hustle and bustle is the hidden secret realm of the trial space - Giant Beast Ridge.
The resting place of the ancient Behemoth!
Alan sacrificed a deep-sea squid's heart at the altar in the underground of the orc fortress, and was then teleported to the giant beast Ridge.
Before he could get familiar with the environment, he heard the sound of rocks breaking behind the dim sand.
Alan followed the sound.
After walking a short distance in the wind and sand, I saw a hill that was cracking apart.
Boom! !
Hills Collapse!
A giant beast slowly rose from the rubble, as if it had broken free from its seal.
The giant beast shook off the sand and dirt on its body, revealing its thick hair and ferocious face.
Alan dared to say that there were few people in the world today who knew Behemoth better than him!
In the meditation world, when you have nothing to do, you can activate the bloodline totem and summon the spirit Behemoth to wrestle.
However, compared with the real Behemoth in front of him, his Behemoth Spirit was just a cub at best.
The spirit Behemoth is only ten meters tall.
The statue in front of Alan was estimated to be thirty meters tall, comparable to a ten-story building!
Alan activated the fifth level of atavism and added the "Giant Transformation Technique", but he was still much shorter than the giant beast.
Because they were not in the same weight class, Allen had to give up the idea of wrestling.
He hooked his finger at the Behemoth that had just revived and was still a little confused, and issued a provocation in standard Orc language!
"Little Behemoth, come here and die!"
The giant beast on the opposite side was indeed enraged by him and beat its chest and roared.
The roar of the giant beast is a kind of mental attack called "Bloody War Roar".
For our side, it can boost morale and dispel fear, but the enemy will feel the exact opposite.
If one's will is not strong enough, hearing Behemoth's roar from afar would frighten one to the point of peeing one's pants and causing one's fighting spirit to collapse.
Allen deliberately provoked the giant beast in order to test the opponent's strength and rank based on the "Bloody Roar".
The sixth-level soul-soothing meditation method can stably suppress the mental attacks contained in the roar of the giant beast.
Alan felt relieved.
A true Behemoth, stronger than a Spirit Behemoth.
However, their fighting styles are similar.
It’s just three tricks: one roar, two pounce, three stomps!
Alan is very familiar with these routines.
Sure enough, the giant beast roared wildly, and then found that Alan was not scared.
A hint of regret appeared in the scarlet eyes.
It suddenly leaped up, like a gray meteor, and fell straight towards Allen!
Alan had to be wary of the giant beast's power.
If you are pounced on by it, what will follow is mad trampling and tearing by its sharp claws!
The claws of the Behemoth are equivalent to a level 4 enchanted weapon, and also have terrifying armor-piercing effects!
Any physical armor, including Allen's beast armor, can only provide 50% of its defensive power against Behemoth's claws.
Alan didn't want to make trouble for himself.
Before the giant beast fell, he activated the three-phase phantom and turned into a ball of light steam.
Bang!
The giant beast landed, and the shock wave it created blew the gaseous Allen away, just in time to avoid the subsequent attack.
Neither the pounce nor the trampling could hit Allen.
The Behemoth was very anxious and pounced forward with a roar.
In mid-air, a hazy smile appeared on the face of the steam giant.
The hands that looked like smoke and fog were somewhat deformed by the airflow.
But that didn't stop him from making a series of hand gestures, using the Kraken's ink as the spell material, and silently casting the "Poison Cloud Spell"!
puff!
A poisonous cloud as dark as ink erupted from around Allen.
The gaseous body disappeared into the black clouds, leaving no trace.
The Behemoth dived into the black cloud, inhaled the toxin, and its senses immediately became extremely dull.
During the Great Flood, two races of giant beasts from land and sea confronted each other.
The reason why the Behemoths were defeated, in addition to the objective factors of the changes in land and sea, another key factor was that the Leviathans carried their own biological weapons!
Countless behemoths have died from the poison of the Leviathans.
Ancient memories arouse fear in the heart of the Behemoth!
He turned around in a hurry, trying to escape from the dark cloud-filled area.
The gaseous Allen merged with the black cloud, floated in the air, and tightly entangled the Behemoth.
Poison gas is continuously injected through its skin, mouth and nose until all five senses are lost and it becomes numb.
The Behemoth finally fell.
The howls of unwillingness echoed among the mountains.
Alan strode forward.
The crystallized left arm, equipped with the Steel Rift Rake, stabbed deep into the heart of the Behemoth, dealing it a fatal blow.
At the same time, bone spurs popped out from the palm of the hand, greedily sucking blood!
Didi——
"Eat special ingredients: the blood of the Behemoth!"
"Potential +4!"
"Physique +1!"
Current attributes: 55 physique, 39 agility, 58 spirit
Current resistance: Virus level 8 / Electric shock level 6 / Cold level 5
Potential reserve: 47 points
…
After obtaining the blood essence of the Behemoth, Alan was forcibly teleported back to the altar of the Orc fortress.
Eat something, rest for a while, and your physical strength will be basically restored.
Alan decided to strike while the iron was hot and sacrifice the Kraken's heart!
The altar is surrounded by seven lampstands in the shape of animal heads.
Each lampstand symbolizes a type of behemoth.
In addition to the ordinary Behemoth that Allen had just sacrificed, there are six elemental Behemoths: sky, earth, volcano, glacier, thunder, and raging waves!
Allen only has one Kraken heart and can only sacrifice one elemental behemoth.
So, what choice should be made?
Alan fell into deep thought.
There are six elemental behemoths, each specializing in different types of magic.
In addition, attribute growth is also different.
The Earth Behemoth and the Volcano Behemoth have higher physical growth.
Sky Behemoth and Thunder Behemoth have excellent agility growth.
Glacier Behemoth and Tide Behemoth have balanced development of physique and agility.
Allen's physical and mental attributes are obviously much higher than his agility attributes!
The reason for the huge gap is partly because his initial agility attribute is relatively low, and the agility growth of the ogre bloodline that was awakened in the early stage is too poor.
The more critical factor lies in the special ingredients!
Most of Allen's attributes come from special ingredients.
After eating so much, he found that there were many special ingredients that could improve physical and mental attributes, but it was rare to find one that could improve agility!
If this pattern continues, his agility attribute will only become more and more of a drag!
When fighting against a strong enemy, any weakness will become a fatal flaw in the eyes of the opponent!
My lack of agility has seriously hindered my performance in actual combat, and I must make up for this shortcoming as soon as possible.
From this perspective, Allen should choose the elemental Behemoth with the best agility growth.
Between thunder and the sky, he finally chose the sky.
There are two reasons.
First of all, Thunder Behemoth is pure "electric attribute".
Similar to Brother Hogg's "Thunder Boar" bloodline, it is easier to awaken lightning magic.
Cangtian Behemoth has both "electricity attribute" and "wind attribute". In addition to lightning magic, there is a high probability that it can awaken wind magic!
As a gentleman with broad vision, Alan prefers to learn from the strengths of many schools rather than specializing in one field.
For him, the more elemental attributes, the better.
A variety of spell types bring abundant tactical options.
It can also provide him with richer materials for integrating martial arts.
In addition, Allen chose Behemoth because the name sounds more impressive.
It fits perfectly with his handsome temperament!
After the sacrifice, Alan was teleported back to the Behemoth Ridge.
At the top of Jueling Mountain, a mountain suddenly exploded!
The revived giant beast stands on the top of the mountain, raises its head and roars!
Alan looked up at the Behemoth in the sky with curiosity in his eyes.
In size and appearance, it looks similar to an ordinary Behemoth.
However, the fur of the Behemoth is blue.
Just like the blue sky!
Alan also noticed that the fangs and claws of the Behemoth were flashing with electric light.
It can be seen that the minions of this monster are naturally endowed with electrical enchantments.
While he was observing, Behemoth had already discovered him.
This hot-tempered giant beast actually jumped down from the top of a thousand-meter mountain and swooped down into the air!
Fuck you...you idiot, aren't you afraid of falling to death? !
Alan complained in his heart, but his hands were not idle.
He skillfully performed the casting gesture and silently cast the Expanding Poison Cloud Technique!
puff!
Above Alan's head, a thick cloud of ink appeared.
Disperse quickly and cut off the jumping trajectory of Sky Behemoth!
According to the law of free fall, within ten seconds, the Behemoth would crash into the ink and inhale the Kraken toxin.
Alan wanted to see how the Behemoth, which had lost its five senses after being poisoned, would land safely and avoid being smashed into a pulp.
The roar of beasts in the sky suddenly turned into the clear and penetrating sound of birdsong!
The dark clouds above also obscured Alan's vision.
I couldn’t see clearly what was happening in the air, but I had a bad feeling.
He quickly performed the Phantom Steps and moved to an area with a wide field of vision.
Looking up again, Alan's face changed slightly!
The beast of the sky was gone.
Instead, there was a big roc!
The sky blue feathers are enough to indicate its identity.
"Can the Blue Behemoth... also transform into a great roc?!"
Alan looked surprised.
Even the ogre wizard ancestors don’t know this detail!
It opened his eyes!
The Dapeng, the incarnation of the Sky Behemoth, has a wingspan of over fifty meters.
The wings flapped, creating a storm that blew away the poisonous gas in an instant!
The blue roc uses bird calls instead of spells to summon thunderstorms and release lightning, like a strategic bomber!
The thunder rumbled, shaking the mountains.
Thunder and lightning kept hitting Alan's head!
There is nowhere to hide on the plateau.
Alan can only use his head to withstand the lightning strike!
Fortunately, when I was hunting the Kraken before, I absorbed the electric shock resistance of this sea monster.
The lightning released by the Behemoth cannot cause fatal damage to him for the time being.
Enduring the numbness caused by the electric shock, Alan started the fifth level of atavism!
The leopard-headed giant activates the "Air Dance Technique" and rides the wind!
The first step to hunting the Sky Behemoth is to get close to it!
The sapphire eyes of the Behemoth in the sky flashed with lightning.
It seemed to have seen through Alan's intention, shaking its wings and controlling the atmosphere!
The weather in the sky above Jueling Mountain suddenly changed!
The roaring air currents surrounded Alan, forming a tornado!
The leopard-headed giant was trapped in the tornado and was spinning at high speed.
A strong feeling of dizziness was eroding Allen's mind, and his consciousness was gradually becoming blurred.
Biting his lips hard, Alan tried his best to stay awake in the storm.
Three-phase phantom, crystal form!
All the flesh and blood crystallized in an instant!
The body density increases three times, almost like diamond!
The greater density brings greater deadweight, which helps Alan keep his center of gravity stable in the storm.
This is not enough!
Alan activated the "Vortex Dragon Claw" with both hands at the same time, locking the ground and releasing the gravitational field!
The strong gravitational force dragged him down from mid-air.
Bang!
A giant with a leopard head, like a diamond sculpture, with his feet on the ground.
The hard rock collapsed under his feet like mud.
Alan returned to his ancestor, his legs sunk into the ground up to his knees.
The lower limbs of the crystals grow countless root-like crystalline tissues that extend deep into the soil.
Firmly rooted in the earth, it stands firm in the storm.
Birdsong could be heard again in the air.
The blue roc dives with the wind!
The huge bird claw, surrounded by lightning, grabbed Alan's head fiercely!
The sharp claws of the Behemoths are naturally capable of breaking armor!
Behemoth, in addition to armor-breaking, also has electric shock damage.
Alan did not hesitate to consume a large amount of magic power to stimulate the accelerated growth of his own crystals, fixing himself to the ground and resisting the storm.
But in doing so, mobility is also abandoned.
Facing the fierce swooping eagle from the sky, Alan gritted his teeth and decided to give it a hard fight!
The crystallized arm slowly rose up, like a sharp blade being drawn from its sheath!
Allen used his fist infused with "bone-shattering" power to confront Dapeng's giant claw!
The moment the fists and claws collided, time and space seemed to freeze!
boom!!
The violent explosion of air shattered the frozen image.
Alan's crystallized legs could not withstand the impact exerted by the Behemoth.
Along the knees that were buried in the mud, there was a click and everything broke off.
Without its upper body secured, it flew sideways over a hundred meters, knocking down countless boulders along the way.
The right arm that directly confronted the bird's claws was also torn off!
The Behemoth in the sky also paid a heavy price.
The claw was smashed by Allen's punch!
Amid the wails, blood fell like rain!
It looked like Allen was more seriously injured and seemed to have suffered a great loss.
However, when he switched back to flesh and blood, his disabled limbs automatically regenerated in just a few seconds!
After stretching his new limbs, Alan raised the corners of his lips.
What does "both sides suffer" mean?
Everything is calculated!
His regenerative physique gave him the confidence to confront Behemoth head-on, who was obviously stronger than him, and to exchange injuries for injuries!
Similar to the beastman, the Behemoth also possesses a strong self-healing physique.
But unfortunately, the difference between rapid self-healing and regeneration is that it can only heal wounds but cannot reshape severed limbs out of thin air!
Losing a claw was a big blow to Behemoth!
Physical disability is secondary; the loss of confidence is more fatal!
The overlord of the sky no longer dared to swoop down for hand-to-hand combat.
Circling in the air, lightning and thunder continued to strike.
However, this level of attack cannot pose a substantial threat to Allen, who has level 6 resistance.
Alan raised his right hand and spread his five fingers toward the sky.
The vortex of magic power in the palm of the hand turned into a flaming red lotus!
Flame Dragon Claw, capture the Dapeng from mid-air!
More than a hundred tons of force were applied to the Behemoth, forcing it to fall involuntarily.
The winner is decided?
It’s not that simple!
Just when Allen was concentrating on his strength, the Behemoth suddenly transformed into a bolt of lightning and rushed straight towards Allen!
The lightning strike came too fast, and Alan had no time to dodge, so he subconsciously switched to the crystal form with the strongest defense.
The twisted blue lightning hit Crystal Allen hard.
It went straight through his body, flew a thousand feet away, changed its shape in the air, and turned back into a mighty roc in the sky!
Lightning shock, including electric shock and collision damage.
Alan was not afraid of simple electric shocks.
However, the crushing impact that came with the electric shock put him under unbearable pressure.
Snap!!
Crystal Allen exploded in mid-air!
The cracked body looks like a broken mirror.
Before being shattered into pieces, Alan transformed into liquid form, and his body fragments turned into raindrops, dripping onto the bare rocky ground.
The droplets fell to the ground, gathered into a pool, and then reshaped into a human form.
Liquid Alan slowly stood up and turned back into flesh and blood.
The wounds all over his body healed on their own.
After continuous regeneration, Allen's physical strength is on the verge of overdrawn.
His face was full of fatigue.
The great roc in the sky was confident that it had found a way to win.
Fold the wings and lower the flight altitude.
As soon as Allen enters the range, he transforms into lightning and attacks!
Alan looked solemn.
With the Flame Dragon Claw in his right hand, he exerted all his strength to activate the repulsive force field to stop the Sky Behemoth from diving!
The left hand gathered magical power, as if holding up a silver full moon!
Swish!
A flash of moonlight!
The Behemoth suddenly paused and involuntarily cancelled its transformation.
The blue roc transformed back into a giant beast and fell from the sky!
"call……"
Alan let out a long sigh, feeling relieved.
Fortunately, the last bet was right!
When Alan first saw the Behemoth transform into the form of a roc, he thought of the beastman's talent for transformation.
Beastmen can advance into Behemoths, and both belong to the same bloodline.
The transformation of the Behemoth into the Roc was most likely not through transformation magic, but a transformation talent similar to "beast transformation".
Based on this, Allen deduced that the "Moonlight" skills that have special effects on deformed subspecies such as beastmen can also seal the transformation ability of the Sky Behemoth!
Cangtian Behemoth was hit by a "moonlight cannon" and suffered serious injuries.
Afterwards, he was cursed by the moonlight and forced to transform back into a giant beast. Without his wings, he plummeted thousands of feet, and his fate was sealed.
With a loud bang, the giant beast fell, creating a big hole in the ground.
Alan walked forward and delivered the final blow to the blue beast whose spine was broken.
puff!
The bone spur pierced the heart, ending its pain.
Alan was exhausted and urgently needed to eat and replenish his energy.
Next, it’s time to enjoy the spoils.
Didi——
"Eat special ingredients: the flesh and blood of the Heavenly Behemoth!"
"Potential +4!"
"Agility +1!"
"Eat special ingredients: the heart of the Sky Behemoth!"
"Potential +4!"
"Physique +1!"
Current attributes: 56 physique, 39 agility, 59 spirit
Current resistance: Virus level 8 / Electric shock level 6 / Sonic level 5 / Cold level 5
Potential reserve: 55 points
…
Sky Behemoth has two resistances: electric shock and sonic wave.
Alan's resistance to electric shock is already quite high, so this time he chooses to absorb resistance to sonic waves and upgrade it to level 5 in one go!
It is just right to offset the crystallized form's weakness of being afraid of sonic bombardment.
…
After obtaining the essence of the Behemoth's bloodline, Alan was teleported back to the orc altar.
Now that he had gotten everything he needed, Alan planned to return to the Castle of Origin to practice in seclusion.
However, in a flash, a possibility suddenly occurred to me.
In order to verify this sudden idea, Alan came to the polar ice sea for the third time today.
Beiting and Taffman had left, and the snow-covered coast was dead silent and deserted.
Alan turned into liquid and dived into the deep sea with ease.
Coming to the underwater temple again, Alan was disappointed to find that the abyss was open and there were no large bubbles filled with electricity.
The bottom of the abyss was also empty, with no sign of a second Kraken.
"That is to say, there are only so many monsters in the trial space. If you kill one, there will be one less. They will not be refreshed..."
Alan muttered to himself.
He originally hoped that the trial space would be like the game copy in his previous life, where the monsters he killed could be refreshed.
If this is the case, you can repeatedly solo the Kraken.
After you have collected five hearts, sacrifice them one by one, and then challenge the other five elemental behemoths.
In this way, the blood essence of all six elemental behemoths can be gathered.
Even if you can't use it yourself, at least you can give it to relatives and friends, or sell it in exchange for other cultivation resources.
What's more, you can also obtain special ingredients from the other five elemental behemoths!
Unfortunately, reality shattered his fantasy.
The trial space is not a game copy after all.
The approach of repeatedly killing monsters is simply not feasible.
Alan sighed, feeling bored.
At this time, a turbulent undercurrent was heard in the distance.
A deep-sea squid finally discovered that its home had been stolen and was swimming towards the abyss.
Alan turned his head and looked at the deep-sea squid.
The disappointment in his eyes turned into burning greed!
Kraken, the only one in the entire trial space.
But there are as many as five second-level sea monsters, such as deep-sea squids, in this sea area alone.
This does not include the one he killed.
Now that we are here, the Air Force cannot do anything about it!
Killing a few deep-sea squids, extracting their blood essence, and selling them to the housekeeper Mi Rui would be a small help.
In a moment, a bloody storm broke out on the seabed.
Half an hour later.
Alan surfaced contentedly.
There were five more portions of deep-sea squid blood essence and five deep-sea squid hearts in the storage bag.
From then on, the sea area became calm and peaceful, with no more sea monsters causing trouble.
As for killing all the Kraken and deep-sea squids, will cut off the path for other trial-takers to advance to Behemoth?
Allen thought about this question and acknowledged that it was a possibility.
But, this is not a bad thing for him.
If someone really wants to advance to Behemoth, why bother hunting sea monsters?
Panthers is a kind man and would never do such wicked things as closing the door as soon as he gets on the car.
As long as the money is enough, Alan doesn't mind selling the deep-sea squid heart and giving away a detailed guide on hunting the Behemoth.
…
Back at the Origin Castle, Alan used his bone spurs to extract a small amount of Behemoth's blood, activated the Taotie system, and analyzed it.
Not long after, I received a system prompt, listing the prerequisites for advancing to the Behemoth:
Possess orc, beastman or Warcraft bloodline, with purity not less than 7%.
Warlock rank ≥ Level 5 early stage
Physical attributes ≥ 40
Agility ≥ 40
Hunt down at least one tier 5 sea monster (Leviathan) and perform a sacrificial ritual.
…
Seeing this row of advancement conditions, Alan couldn't help but recall that at the beginning of his time travel, he had used the Taotie system to deduce what kind of high-level bloodline his ogre bloodline could evolve into.
At that time, the system gave two branch routes.
One is an ogre wizard, and the other is a hill giant.
At that time, he felt that the thresholds for both advancement routes were too high.
Due to the pressure of survival, we need to increase our strength as quickly as possible.
So he gave up advancing to become an ogre wizard and a giant and chose instead the blood fusion with a lower threshold, thus embarking on the path of practicing as a poison sorcerer.
Looking back on the past, Allen had to admit that he was a little too eager for quick success at that time.
Of course, I won’t regret my original choice.
After all, the poison demon talent is most compatible with the Taotie system. If you change the path, you may not be able to achieve what you have today.
Moreover, he later successfully merged the blood of the ogre wizard, which can be regarded as a "roundabout way to save the country."
Compared with the Ogre Wizard and Hill Giant, the advancement requirements of the Behemoth are much more stringent.
Next, he analyzed the advancement conditions of the Blue Sky Behemoth, and the results made him frown again and again.
