WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The howling sea wind whipped across Li Wei’s face.

He stood on a rock, watching Nitro approach.

The others were all busy setting up various Magic Traps and preparing their Magic.

He was the only one who looked idle.

THUD! THUD! THUD!

The sound of the Ancient Calamity Beast’s footsteps grew closer.

A towering figure emerged from the forest, the trees only high enough to cover the Ancient Calamity Beast’s lower half.

Its majestic upper body loomed over the sea of trees.

It looked like an Ancient Giant wading through the canopy.

It radiated an incredibly oppressive aura.

Nitro walked into a Magic Trap.

With a tremendous rumble, a gravity-suppression Magic Trap was triggered.

Instantly, the gravity in Nitro’s vicinity multiplied dozens of times.

The ground immediately sank several meters, and Nitro’s legs plunged deep into the earth, burying it up to its calves.

Nitro buckled slightly under the gravitational pressure.

SQUELCH!

Nitro pulled its feet from the mud and continued forward.

Each step left a deep crater.

PSSSSHT!

A cloud of smoke shot out from the woods and struck Nitro.

The smoke enveloped its entire body, and a SSSSSSS sound filled the air.

This was a Corrosive Potion prepared by the Alchemist, specifically designed to weaken Nitro’s terrifying Defense Power.

"Dimension Slash!"

The Space Mage was the first to attack.

The Dimension Slash tore through space, devouring everything in its path.

Sensing the danger, Nitro’s giant beak split open, revealing countless sharp teeth within.

"ROAR!"

With a furious roar, a terrifying shockwave blasted away the corrosive mist surrounding it.

Nitro shot a red pillar of light from its mouth, striking the spatial rift created by the Dimension Slash.

The two forces clashed for a moment, then erupted in a violent explosion. BANG!

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

In the sky, a massive meteor descended from the heavens.

Dragging a long, fiery tail, the meteor locked onto Nitro’s position and plummeted downward.

Nitro sensed the danger from above.

It reacted instantly.

It turned its head toward the falling meteor and fired a crimson beam of light.

BOOM!

The meteor exploded in mid-air, shattering into countless fragments that rained down on the isolated island.

A look of disappointment crossed Li Wei’s face.

’It failed.’

He had been the one to cast the Meteor Skill.

The meteor fell quickly, but it made too much of a commotion.

It was too easy to spot.

For a powerful being, a clumsy meteor wasn’t difficult to handle.

Nitro scooped up chunks of flattened trees and earth, hurling them at the people outside the gravity-suppression zone.

Its terrifying Power infused the flying debris with astonishing force.

The projectiles instantly pierced through trees and rocks.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

Someone was unlucky enough to be hit, and they were sent flying, Magic Shield and all.

Nitro whipped its head, and a red beam of light sliced across the ground.

RUMBLE!

The ground exploded. In an instant, the gravity-suppression Magic Trap was destroyed.

Nitro’s mobility was restored.

Its massive body erupted with astonishing speed.

In the blink of an eye, it appeared before a Mage.

STOMP!

Nitro slammed its foot into the ground.

The earth shattered and buckled. Fissures spread out like a spiderweb, and all the surrounding trees were uprooted.

The figure of the Mage that Nitro had attacked dissipated into thin air like a soap bubble.

It was an Illusionist.

Nitro hadn’t attacked his real body.

The Illusionist tried to use Spiritual Magic to control Nitro.

But Nitro seemed immune to Spiritual Magic.

The Illusionist’s attack had no effect whatsoever.

Nitro’s thick brown fur acted like a dense, anti-magic barrier.

The Power of Magic couldn’t penetrate its fur to harm it.

Even the Corrosive Potion hadn’t done much damage.

It had only managed to slightly singe the outer layer of its fur.

BOOM!

A Cyan Flame Fireball struck Nitro.

The Fireball exploded, releasing an incredibly terrifying heat.

A patch of fur on Nitro’s body was charred black.

It shook its body, and bits of charred fur fell to the ground.

Li Wei stared intently. The intense heat of the Cyan Flame Fireball had inflicted some damage, but it wasn’t enough.

It was nowhere near enough to kill Nitro.

Not unless they could scorch Nitro with several hundred thousand degrees of Cyan Flame for an extended period.

Only then could they completely burn away its layer of anti-magic fur.

Li Wei could tell this was going to be difficult.

Nitro’s Defense Power was absurdly high, and yet its Power and speed were also astonishing.

Li Wei stared at Nitro, preparing to attack it with the Basic Level Flame Rule.

Nitro instantly sensed the danger.

It vanished from Li Wei’s sight.

A dark shadow appeared behind Li Wei.

BAM!

Nitro brought a fist smashing down on Li Wei’s head.

Its fist punched straight through the ground.

As it slowly raised its fist, it saw that Li Wei’s figure had vanished.

It was another fake.

Nitro quickly scanned the area, searching for Li Wei.

It had sensed danger coming from Li Wei.

Hiding in the shadows, Li Wei was startled. ’Thank goodness I used an Illusory Body. Otherwise, that punch would have been more than I could handle.’

After a day of rest and recuperation, Li Wei’s shattered Invisible Armor had fully recovered.

One punch from Nitro wouldn’t kill him, but his Invisible Armor probably couldn’t withstand more than a few of its attacks.

Its Power was simply too terrifying.

Both Illusion Techniques and Fire Element Magic struggled to inflict any damage on Nitro.

And it even had a way to counter the Dimension Slash, the one attack that posed a real threat.

Li Wei’s Basic Level Flame Rule could destroy Nitro’s fur.

But the moment he revealed himself to use the ability, Nitro would lock onto him and give chase.

Nitro was just too fast.

Without the restriction of the gravity-suppression Magic Trap, Nitro’s speed completely overwhelmed them.

Nitro scanned the area one last time, then turned and walked toward the nearest challenge arena.

The purple stone buried beneath the challenge arena drew its attention more than killing the mages did.

After Nitro walked away, Li Wei noticed the Alchemist frantically searching for something in the area it had just been.

"What are you looking for?" Li Wei asked.

Without turning his head, the Alchemist said, "Quick, help me find any fur Nitro left behind! I can use its properties to create an Alchemy Potion specifically to counter it."

Upon hearing this, everyone began to search.

There hadn’t been many opportunities during the fight for Nitro to shed any fur.

After searching for what felt like an eternity, they only managed to find four tough, broken strands of fur, each as thick as a chopstick.

Nitro’s fur was incredibly tough; ordinary blades couldn’t even scratch it, and it possessed extremely high Magic Resistance.

It was a prime material for crafting armor.

Unfortunately, obtaining Nitro’s fur was far too difficult.

Unless they could kill it.

But to kill Nitro, the first step was to destroy its coat of fur, which had incredibly high Defense Power.

CRASH!

Li Wei and the others watched as Nitro broke through another arena, destroying it to retrieve a purple stone.

After swallowing the second purple stone, two purple stripes appeared on Nitro’s body.

They stretched from its shoulders down to its waist.

They looked like a pair of suspenders glowing with purple light.

Nitro’s aura grew even more powerful.

Seeing this, the Alchemist hurriedly shouted, "Find a way to hold it off! Buy me some time!"
