Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 482: Chapter 77: Annihilation of All Beings!_1

”BANG! BANG! BANG!”

Rhythmic shots rang out ceaselessly.

Meanwhile, Argus kept avoiding Wen Yu’s attacks from a distance, absolutely daring not to close in.

If the distance shortened any further, Argus wouldn’t be able to react to Wen Yu’s attacks in time and would definitely get shot!

Wen Yu, despite holding the advantage with his weapon, didn’t press his attack. Instead, he continued to process all the information he had gathered so far.

He was gradually grasping the fundamental nature of this space.

Firstly, within this space, both he and the opposing demon spawn appeared to be Soul Bodies. This was evident from the effect Soul Strike had on the demon spawn.

Secondly, within this space, only soul-related skills and items could be used, and this restriction had an extremely high priority. This must be the effect of an Esoteric Level skill; otherwise, an ability like Pitch-dark Divine Light should have been usable!

Finally, within this space, Soul Strength likely amplified physical attributes.

The demon spawn’s physical fitness doesn’t seem like that of a Level 5 creature. It must possess some skill to enhance its Soul Strength. On the other hand, my physical fitness has received a moderate boost here, probably because I’m a reborner or a Soul Master—the exact reason isn’t clear.

In a short time, Wen Yu had pieced together a fairly accurate understanding of the Soul Battlefield’s nature.

Thus arose a question—how am I supposed to fight this battle?

He rapidly pulled the trigger. Mad Medley’s attack frequency was fixed at twice per second; this wasn’t related to his manual firing speed. Palpitation’s activation effect, however, was remarkably potent. Although its damage was somewhat weaker, its attack speed was superior within the Soul Battlefield. Combined with its ability to enhance Soul Strike’s effect, Palpitation might actually be more powerful here.

But when it came to offensive attacks, either you hit the target, or you didn’t. If the demon spawn is playing hide-and-seek with me from a distance, I’m left with no effective recourse.

While the demon spawn darted about, Wen Yu quickly reviewed his available methods, until his gaze landed on the pendant at his chest—the Soul Shattering Mirror!

He had obtained this item from the battle between the two worlds but hadn’t used it yet.

The reason was simple: it only had three uses, and Wen Yu generally looked down on most ordinary skills. However, upon understanding the nature of this space, a peculiar thought arose in his mind—The skill this mirror can extract... it seems it would be a great fit for my abilities...

As Wen Yu’s level progressed and his skills multiplied, Soul Strike was increasingly becoming less effective. How could Soul Strike be comparable to Pitch-dark Divine Light for eliminating enemies?

But here, the effect of Soul Strike was outstanding. If I could acquire that skill, or extract the demon spawn’s skill of enhancing Soul Strength, then it would be my trump card and my most powerful form of attack!

At this thought, Tang Haofei suddenly came to mind—If I used this ability to pull Tang Haofei into this space, how would the outcome of our battle change?

It’s very likely that Tang Haofei would end up like a blank slate without any skills, while I would have Soul Strike and be Soul-Armored!

In such a scenario, the outcome of the battle would be unpredictable!

Having thought this through, Wen Yu resolved to act on it!

”BANG! BANG!...”

Palpitation and Mad Medley continued to fire Energy Bullets. Argus still dared not cross an unseen line, merely keeping his distance and incessantly dodging Wen Yu’s attacks.

However, even in this space, a Soul Body could still experience fatigue.

After an unknown amount of time, Wen Yu’s fingers grew numb. Finally... his hand twitched...

As if he had slipped up, Palpitation’s barrel veered sharply!

Upon seeing this, Argus’s three eyes lit up!

Given that the prolonged stalemate had numbed even Wen Yu’s fingers, one could imagine how fatigued Argus must be, having made such vigorous movements.

At this point, Argus was only barely holding on, relying on his Soul Power, which was several times stronger.

To defeat the Soul Master before him, simply evading attacks wouldn’t suffice. Argus knew all too well the principle that a prolonged defense would eventually lead to failure.

Wen Yu’s current slip-up presented an opportunity Argus could not afford to miss!

Argus’s legs suddenly pushed off with immense force, launching him like a cannonball toward Wen Yu!

The wound on his calf, where he’d been grazed earlier, still throbbed with a slight pain. The power of Soul Strike was truly terrifying!

However, thankfully, this injury did not hamper Argus’s movements!

The combination of his robust physique and Soul Power gave Argus tremendously high physical fitness within the Soul Battlefield!

In a split second, he closed the distance of several thousand meters, reducing it to mere tens of meters!

Watching the Soul Master flusteredly raise his gun, struggling to adjust his aim, a glimmer of satisfaction flashed in Argus’s eyes.

Under these circumstances, you’re finished... Argus thought.

Then he noticed a smirk on Wen Yu’s face!

”BANG!”

The Palpitation, which had just ”misfired,” instantly vanished into Wen Yu’s body, then reappeared directly on his shoulder.
