Chapter 308 The Darkness Fades

"It's a signal, get ready, the adventurer is coming!"

More than an hour after Zhao Yu left, a signal bomb went up in the wilderness.

This was Zhao Yu's signal to the people ambushing outside the barrier, informing them that he had lured the monster back.

Sure enough, not long after, he took the lead and rushed out of the wilderness with moon steps, followed not far behind by the black moa.

When the soldiers in Penglai saw this, they couldn't stop sweating from their foreheads. They knew how terrifying these things were.

But they didn't panic at all, because they knew that panicking in the face of these beasts was courting death. They were waiting for the general's order to attack.

"Fire arrows!!!"

After everyone finally saw Zhao Yu arriving at the agreed upon location, the general let out a loud roar.

The soldiers controlled by the volley of thousands of arrows immediately attacked. In an instant, the rain of arrows in the sky just passed over Zhao Yu and enveloped the moa behind him.

At this moment, Zhao Yu raised his sword and turned around, cleaning up the fish that had slipped through the net to prevent the soldiers from being injured.

The moas wanted to retreat, but this time the Penglai people did not spare their arrow resources.

Under the desperate shooting of crossbow arrows, very few moas escaped back, and they couldn't even take away the bodies of their companions.

Everyone was left to clean up the battlefield. Zhao Yu also chased them to the mother's body again.

In just this short time, the mother body produced a lot of moas, but they were incomparable to the original ones.

After Zhao Yu arrived at the mother's body, he slashed at the mother's neck, but only scratched its scales.

Because of his first experience, Zhao Yu was somewhat prepared for its defense.

Roar!

The mother moa, which was hit by Zhao Yu's slash, roared angrily and stood up from the ground.

The difference between the mother moa and the ordinary moa is very huge. Compared with the ordinary moa, which only has two feet, the mother not only has four limbs, but also has tough claws.

It raised its sharp claws and swung directly at Zhao Yu. Seeing that its mother body was attacked, the moa in the sky also swooped towards Zhao Yu crazily.

After Zhao Yu dodged the sharp claws of the moa, he sheathed the [Griffin] on his waist and took the stance of Iai Slash.

Then the familiar white snake phantom appeared, [Griffin] unsheathed again, and Zhao Yu spun quickly.

The sword energy formed a spherical shield around Zhao Yu, and the white snake began to circle around Zhao Yu, smashing the moa that swooped towards it.

After the blow, the sky around Zhao Yu became silent, and then Zhao Yu dodged the mother's grasp again and stayed away from the mother's body.

"Huh~ This trick is really useful, but I'm just a little dizzy!"

Zhao Yu, who was far away from the mother's body, took a deep breath and said that it would take some time for the big-bellied mother's body to move to him.

After Zhao Yu recovered, he charged towards the mother body again. He avoided the mother body's claws and kept attacking the part where he initially attacked, shattering its scales within a few strokes.

This injury caused the mother moa to roar in pain again. Just when Zhao Yu was about to kill it with one blow, he suddenly felt a dangerous aura.

Zhao Yu quickly dodged back, and an unknown liquid spurted out from the place where the mother moa laid its eggs, and flew out next to Zhao Yu.

After the liquid fell to the ground, it instantly corroded the earth into a bottomless pit.

This made Zhao Yu feel scared, and the first mother he killed was with this skill. Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes and felt that things were not that simple.

However, the mother moa was already at the end of its strength. After this skill was avoided by Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu chopped off its head with one blow.

There were some remaining moa sons around him, which were the same as the first moa killed by Zhao Yu. They began to dissipate after the death of their mother.

Then the barrier of Penglai began to spread, and the area of ​​​​the wilderness was squeezed again.

After the death of the mother body, a dark golden soul bead was left behind, named [Dark Soul Bead], which is something of epic quality.

Zhao Yu has already seen one of these things, and the one left behind by the first moa mother body is still in his backpack.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Zhao Yu returned to the army to discuss the next action and ambush location.

…

In the next few days, the other two moa mothers were eliminated by Zhao Yu in the same way.

It's just that the problem that Zhao Yu was worried about has arisen. Each of them will have one more skill than the last one.

The first one has no skills, the second one has acid spray, the third one has one more laser skill than the second one, and the fourth one has one more fast-moving buff skill than the third one.

Especially the fourth skill, its sudden increase in speed almost caused Zhao Yu to overturn.

Now Zhao Yu came to the fifth mother's body, and the scene in front of him completely shocked him again.

The many moas that were supposed to be mindlessly chasing him did not come forward when they saw Zhao Yu coming. Instead, they only glanced at him and flew towards the mother body. All the moa birds in the sky flew into the huge mouth of the mother body.

Then the size of the moa's mother body quickly began to expand, and it, which was originally as big as a mountain, became "standing tall on the sky and on the ground."

At the same time, its shape also changed. Its huge abdomen and original wing membrane disappeared, and its body became stronger and more suitable for fighting.

Zhao Yu looked at the giant beast in front of him and knew that it would be impossible without a special move, but the giant beast didn't give Zhao Yu a chance to think more.

Blue light bloomed on its body, which was the acceleration skill used by the previous giant beast, and then its huge claws hit Zhao Yu like a meteor falling from the sky.

Zhao Yu failed to avoid it and was smashed directly into the ground.

After the giant claw landed, the entire land collapsed, and everyone in Penglai felt the violent impact far outside the barrier.

In the originally overcast sky, the clouds were dispersed.

The sunlight shining through the clouds hits the giant bird-headed beast, standing majestically like a world-destroying demon.

The people outside the barrier felt the violent impact and looked at the looming terrifying figure. They knew that a battle that they could not imagine was taking place here.

But they could only pray for Zhao Yu because they knew that they and others could not help Zhao Yu.

On the battlefield, after the giant monster knocked Zhao Yu into the ground, it suddenly let out a painful roar. It quickly raised its claws, but they had become charred black.

Magma surged under his sharp claws, and Zhao Yu, who transformed into lava form, slowly appeared.

After activating the elementalization of the lava fruit, he was completely immune to the terrifying attack of the giant beast.

"Pluto!!!"

Zhao Yu shouted loudly, and his lava-turned arm went straight towards the giant beast. The hot lava directly penetrated the giant beast's scales, causing it to roar in pain again.

It swung its arms to get rid of the magma, but the magma released by Zhao Yu was like a body attached to bones, and the giant beast could not get rid of it no matter what.

"Lava Land!!!"

Zhao Yu took advantage of the giant beast to remove the magma from his hands, and inserted his hands into the earth beneath his feet. The hot magma spurted out, assimilating the mountains, rivers, earth, and everything around him that could be assimilated by him.

A huge lava lake with a radius of several hundred meters appeared at the feet of Zhao Yu and the giant beast, and the giant beast fell directly into the lava lake.

Zhao Yu's attack really shattered the mountains and rivers and changed the color of the world. This is the ceiling-level attack power of the Devil Fruit.

After the giant beast fell into the lava lake, it wanted to escape, but giant hands stretched out from the lava lake to firmly control it.

It wanted to break free, but the hot magma was consuming its strength all the time.

After crushing one, two appeared, with more and more arms. At the same time, the lava under his feet also spread over his body.

In the end, it was completely dragged into the lava lake by the lava arm for refining amid desperate wails.

The giant moa mother body also had other skills, but Zhao Yu didn't give him any chance.

After a burned red soul bead in the lava was delivered to Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu immediately stood up and left the scope of the lava lake, cutting off contact with this area.

He knelt on the ground and panted heavily. A move of this level was very physically demanding.

After the giant beast was destroyed, Penglai's soul furnace barrier continued to advance, and this time the entire Penglai was enveloped by the barrier.

The new clouds floating in the Penglai sky dissipated, leaving only the earth that had been destroyed by the moa and had no life at all.

After Zhao Yu flew into the sky, he discovered that Penglai was indeed an island. After the clouds disappeared, he saw the coast.

When Zhao Yu returned to the crowd of Penglai troops, he found that everyone was crying.

They finally waited for this day, the day when the darkness faded away and the light returned to the earth.
