Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
This centipede was entirely black, several meters long, and it was crawling towards them at a rapid pace, appearing extremely terrifying.
“You deal with this centipede,” Ye Li said to Luo Yue, looking at her slowly.
Luo Yue was taken aback. Although she was also a second-tier Evolved Being, facing such a terrifying giant centipede, she wasn’t sure how to proceed.
“The second task is to kill this centipede,” Ye Li continued.
When Luo Yue heard this, for some reason, her shocked face instantly became determined.
She wanted to become Ye Li’s disciple. She wanted to make Flame grow stronger.
Just as the black centipede was getting close to them, Luo Yue made her move.
She raised her palm, and a fierce fire enveloped it. After striking with her palm, the fire transformed into a long dragon-like stream, rushing towards the black centipede.
This was the ultimate skill of Flame Organization, something only a few people within Flame could perform. After the intense fire struck the black centipede, it started burning on its body.
However, the black centipede’s exoskeleton was as tough as steel, and within seconds, the flames disappeared, leaving no visible damage on the centipede.
Generally, when comparing second-tier human Evolved Beings to second-tier Evolved Beings of the Dark Race, the latter were typically stronger.
“How is this possible!”
“How is this possible?” Luo Yue was astonished. While she thought she might not be able to defeat this black centipede, she didn’t expect her strongest attack to have no effect at all.
Ye Li stood with folded arms, showing no intention of helping. He just wanted to see how Luo Yue would handle this critical situation.
Of course, he would intervene when necessary.
The black centipede seemed to be provoked by the previous attack and came charging at Luo Yue in a frenzy.
In the moment of Luo Yue’s astonishment, the black centipede was already right in front of her.
At this moment, Luo Yue finally snapped back to reality. The black centipede had opened its mouth wide, ready to swallow her in one gulp.
She hastily dodged, and as the black centipede’s attack missed, it roared in anger and immediately swung its body towards Luo Yue.
Luo Yue attempted to evade the sweeping motion but was too slow.
The tail of the black centipede struck her heavily, and she was sent flying, landing on the ground and coughing up blood.
As soon as Luo Yue hit the ground, the black centipede swiftly crawled towards her without giving her any chance to react.
Meanwhile, Ye Li continued to watch, his expression unchanged.
The black centipede was merely a second-tier Dark Race member, and he could kill it a hundred times over in an instant.
Seeing the black centipede’s large mouth about to devour her, Luo Yue rolled away quickly.
After rolling a few meters, she got up from the ground, her delicate face now filled with determination.
The black centipede once again missed its attack, and it appeared even angrier.
“Roar!”
After a furious roar, the black centipede charged at Luo Yue once more.
Luo Yue looked around and saw an iron rod not far away. Suddenly, a plan formed in her mind.
She took three quick steps and reached the iron rod, picking it up just as the black centipede was about to bite down on her. She raised the iron rod and thrust it forcefully into the centipede’s open mouth.
The black centipede’s mouth was blocked by the iron rod.
At the same time, Luo Yue raised her palm, and a fierce fire surged into the black centipede’s mouth.
Instantly, the black centipede began thrashing violently, emitting a hair-raising screech..
