Global Mutation: Become Unbeatable by Plundering the Gods

25: Divine Catalysis - Half-Step ControlJust after the injection succeeded, Corroding Shadow’s body suddenly stiffened, veins bulging everywhere, and his eyes turned blood-red!

”Hiss... Ahhh!”

The extreme pain caused Corroding Shadow to let out roars, his body twitching incessantly.

Numerous black patterns emerged on his skin, eventually converging into the brand left by the divinity Fusion on his chest.

What made everyone look grim was that the other’s aura was actually rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Meanwhile, as time passed, the shadows of everyone present seemed to want to detach from themselves, as if being pulled by the other’s power.

Ink Rain, being of the same attribute as the opponent, was affected the most.

At this moment, he discovered his shadow was out of control and was gritting his teeth to endure.

At this time, Corroding Shadow’s body actually began to float off the ground bit by bit, causing everyone’s pupils to shrink.

This was a brief levitation ability that only an Awakened One could master upon a Breakthrough to the Controller level.

Had the opponent used that potion to Breakthrough to a Controller?

”Do you feel it?” Corroding Shadow’s voice became low and hoarse. ”This is power approaching the Controller level. Before this power, you are nothing but ants...”

”You’re the ones who pushed me to this point. Feel the despair!”

At this moment, Corroding Shadow slowly landed, raised his right hand, and spread his five fingers.

Immediately, everyone felt a powerful oppressive force.

”Bang!”

With a muffled groan, Qin Yue’s Rock Armor completely shattered, and fragments of rock mixed with blood splashed out.

Ink Rain was now almost completely prone on the ground, unable to move. His own Shadow Power felt like it was being drawn out by the opponent, and cold sweat poured down.

As for White Night and Liu Ning, they felt as if an invisible giant hand was choking their throats.

The realistic sensation of suffocation turned their faces pale, and they clutched their throats with both hands, trying to peel away the invisible hand.

Because Chen Yan had the lowest Realm, although his own defensive power had greatly improved after activating Titans Strength,

under this immense oppressive force from the opponent, he was currently gritting his teeth and forcefully holding his hands high.

It was as if he were holding up an invisible mountain, and cracks appeared one after another on the ground under this force.

At this time, a cruel smile appeared on the opponent’s lips: ”All of you, die!”

A pitch-black Shadow Energy Ball condensed in his palm, and the surrounding space became distorted because of this power.

In the next instant, under his control, it slammed violently towards everyone.

Wherever it passed, a trench was corroded into the ground.

”Get back!”

”Battle Domain!”

Zhou Xing let out a low shout, and the invisible Battle Domain spread out, freeing everyone from the oppressive state.

At the same time, Frost Power quickly emerged in front of him from his left hand, forming three Ice Shields.

His right hand condensed a high-speed rotating fireball, which grew larger as power was layered onto it.

Seizing the opportunity, he directly slammed it into the approaching black ball.

”Boom!”

The moment the black ball and the fireball collided, power erupted violently. The terrifying shockwave instantly shattered all three layers of Ice Shields.

Everyone was blown away by this impact.

Fortunately, the fireball’s consumption and the defense of the three Ice Shields significantly weakened the exploding energy.

Otherwise, if it had exploded right in front of them, the others would have been heavily injured if not killed.

Especially Qin Yue, who had used Wrath of the Mountain while heavily injured; he could not afford any more turmoil now.

However, what surprised Corroding Shadow was that this shockwave had no effect on him at all.

Instead, he took the initiative to charge forward.

Because he was smeared with the excrement of the Iron-Spined Earth Dragon, Zhou Xing had also used the Metal Skin ability extracted from the ”god of steel” divinity fragment the moment the shockwave erupted.

The god of war was already a deity with very strong defense, and now with the addition of Metal Skin,

the power that had been neutralized by the three Frost Power shields naturally could not cause any harm to Zhou Xing.

”Interesting, a triple-element Fusion of Ice-Fire and Battle. Then I’ll play with you.”

Seeing Zhou Xing about to rush over, Corroding Shadow quickly formed hand seals. Under his control, the shadows in the laboratory transformed into a sky full of Shadow Arrows, shooting towards Zhou Xing.

Every one of these arrows carried corrosive power, and wherever they hit, whether metal or the floor, holes were corroded into them.

Fortunately, he had Battle Acuity, allowing Zhou Xing to make advance predictions and dodge.

His right fist, wrapped in flames, slammed out, and Frost Power diffused from his left hand. Instantly, all the arrows were either burned or frozen, failing to have any effect.

”Taste this move, Ice-Fire Storm!”

Zhou Xing then slammed his palms together, and the Ice-Fire Power merged violently, forming a red and blue intertwined storm that rapidly swirled towards Corroding Shadow.

”Shadow Devour!”

However, although the energy Zhou Xing unleashed was powerful, the opponent was now equivalent to a Half-step Controller.

With a wave of his hand, a black hole condensed from Shadow Power appeared, directly swallowing the Ice-Fire Storm Zhou Xing had created.

”Shadow Raid!”

Following that, Corroding Shadow’s body actually split into six, launching a surprise attack from the shadows at various angles like an assassin.

”Puchi!”

Zhou Xing tried his best to dodge, but a wound was still sliced into his shoulder by one of the Shadow Clones.

This was very surprising to Zhou Xing, as he still had Metal Skin active.

Just as he was about to make a move, a sharp pain came from his shoulder, and Zhou Xing had to use Frost Power to temporarily freeze the wound.

Corroding Shadow’s attacks continued; his Clones were like ghosts, every shift and turn carrying a lethal attack.

This was even with Zhou Xing’s Battle Domain active.

The strength of a Half-step Controller—unquestionable!

”Bang!”

With a heavy blow, Zhou Xing was struck by one of the opponent’s Clones and sent flying, slamming hard against the laboratory wall.

A sharp pain came from his chest, and a trace of blood leaked from the corner of his mouth.

”System, fuse those two divinity fragments for me.”

The moment he was flying backward, Zhou Xing directly gave the command to the System.

”Hiss—!”

In an instant, an incredibly violent power emerged within Zhou Xing’s body.

The intense pain made Zhou Xing unable to help but gasp.

That feeling was as if every part of his body was being pricked by needles...
