Chapter 1103 Acting
It must have understood him to some extent since it roared again right after, splashing the liquid everywhere. And every place and grunt unfortunate enough to be hit by the liquid was instantly dissolved into a puddle of the same thing.
In Hao Xuan's eyes the space around the synapse was beginning to fragment and burn with a red hue. Its bloodthirst was so strong that it was literally dying the surrounding space red just with its psychic power.
And when it reached him, a pressure equivalent to approximately 3 tons fell on top of his shoulders.
If it was before he would not even be able to stand upright let alone move around but now, now it was nothing more than a little inconvenient. He unleashed even more Chaos Qi but to his surprise, it did not lessen the weight from his shoulders even one bit.
Moving around his hand Hao Xuan felt for the changes and found them soon after.
"It's a law! Incomplete still and not being used properly but this is definitely the territory of a recently comprehended law. You can do that?!" he stared at the creature in quite a bit of shock.
The synapse was obviously still in the process of being "birthed" but it was already able to establish the foundation of a very powerful law from the feel of it.
"And it's some kind of a force-related law like Gravity. Do you even know what you're doing?"
The creature roared for the third time and another shockwave was sent out. But this one squashed more than half of the grunts to death within the basin.
When the shockwave reached Hao Xuan he had to use some force of his own to contend against it as the pressure increased to 6 tons.
"I guess that's the extent of what you can understand."
'Baracus, record all the details about it. The process of creation for the creature is not very long but when it's completed it will come out with the strength of a stage 5 Profound Realm cultivator at least with an established law of its own.'
He sighed before looking at the creature one last time. It was struggling to break free from the pit but no matter how hard it tried that was not an option right now.
"As much as I want to see your final form, I can't take that risk. You need to die before that."
That part the creature seemed to have no trouble understanding because all of a sudden it stopped and just stared at him.
That one inconspicuous move made Hao Xuan's heart shake. It was far worse than the imminent threat of physical harm.
"Motherfucker, you were acting?! All that splashing around and shit, you were just trying to pull me in by making me think you were about to lose control but...that's not the case at all, is it? You understand everything I'm saying."
In response to his statement, its massive head slowly tilted to the side as its maw unhurriedly cracked open to reveal a hideous smile, a very human kind of smile.
The hair on Hao Xuan's neck and arms stood straight up.
'This kind of intelligence...I have to kill it right here and now. If it's able to leave this place then we've already lost, no doubt about that.'
He didn't really want to take this fight for multiple reasons especially since it had the home-ground advantage but now there was no other choice. He couldn't just look the other way and let this monster become whole.
With one more step Hao Xuan fell into the basin, crushing a poor grunt that happen to be in his way. The pressure here was more than 12 tons now and he had to use a fair bit of strength to move around.
The grunts around it that had been moving in circles nonstop all immediately turned and lunged at him. Hao Xuan didn't even need to look at them. His hand slightly shook once as he punched forward.
The movement was so fast that in the eyes of an ordinary person it wouldn't stand out at all and yet, the defeaning explosion that followed after spoke volumes as to its power.
The initial jab blew the ones in front of him into smithereens but he pulled back so quickly that it created a vacuum which pulled in even more grunts into the explosion, effectively clearing out several meters of the area around him.
"Don't bother. These little ones won't even slow me down," Hao Xuan shook his head lightly before directing his attention towards the Synapse that looked even more imposing from down here.
"You wanted me to come to you, I'm here. But let me warn you, I won't hold back either. This is the first real fight for me in a long time and I plan to go all out so, prepare yourself."
