Even Bai Ye, relying solely on his physique and strength attributes, would absolutely be no match for such a behemoth. As for agility? The monster could withstand countless harmless attacks, but if he made a single mistake, Bai Ye would be met with a terrifying grinder of flesh and blood.
Power, oh power, I need even greater power.
Bai Ye needs to rely on forces outside the physical body.
The acceleration of thinking has been initiated.
The speed of descent was slowed down infinitely until finally, it seemed to stop in mid-air.
Bai Ye looked down, and below him, the tentacles of the giant monster were also frozen in mid-air, almost frozen in place.
Bai Ye stared at the monster.
Bishop Quintus had long since lost his human form, transforming into a large, grotesque mass of flesh and blood, bizarre yet brimming with a powerful and terrifying vitality; his eyes had become two flowers.
Those enormous eyes, with their cloudy, glassy lenses, met Bai Ye's gaze, vaguely reflecting his image.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
Then, the longsword "Wind Chime" in Bai Ye's hand suddenly began to glow, accompanied by a burst of dazzling light and a storm that suddenly appeared around Bai Ye's body.
The howling winds gathered and surrounded Bai Ye's body, forming dense, highly compressed vacuum wind blades, which then began to rotate in different directions.
This is a spherical, all-around protective shield surrounding Bai Ye's body; it serves as both protection and a weapon.
Bai Ye had never summoned such a large number of vacuum wind blades at once, let alone kept them around his body.
After being enveloped, he continued to fall toward the monster, and the speed increased, with the howling hurricane forming a strange vortex in the water.
Although it sensed something was amiss, the monster remained unperturbed. In its mind, it had surpassed the limits of all existing biological structures, and its body possessed all the qualities that predators and survivors dreamed of.
Human wisdom, Agorian technology, and Haisi's body merged into one at this moment. Although his will had fallen into chaos, his biological instincts reached their peak.
So, the monster began to hunt.
It stretched out countless tentacles toward Bai Ye, overconfident in its own power, believing it could easily crush the bubble.
Then, the two came into contact.
Pain!
The stimulation feedback generated after the tentacles were severed traveled along the flesh to the overlapping nerve centers.
Almost instantly, all the parts that had been wrapped around Bai Ye were shredded by the wind blades surrounding him.
The thickest one blocked the path of Bai Ye's dive, attempting to smash Bai Ye to pieces. However, at the moment of impact, every single chitinous shell and dense muscle fiber was shredded and ground into powder.
Almost instantly, Bai Ye pierced through the tentacle, carving a hemispherical gash in the branch.
Although the wound was not actually fatal to the tentacle as a whole.
But the next moment, a flash of sword light appeared.
Yes, Bai Ye still has a sword in his hand.
Bai Ye swung his sword, its blade gleaming with blinding light, and sliced through the tentacles blocking his way.
To this behemoth, the sword in Bai Ye's hand was practically a toothpick.
However, when the blade was swung out, the sword light suddenly expanded and formed a translucent air blade, as if a hot knife were cutting butter, easily slicing it through.
Then, the wind blades around Bai Ye's body continued to spin, drilling towards the monster's main body.
The seawater was churned up, eddies surged, and huge waves rose on the surface.
"!!"
A silent roar echoed across the seabed.
The monster attempted to fight against the White Night.
On the cross-section of the tentacle, several tiny buds peeked out from the nearly transparent white, then suddenly burst open, and several sharp streams of liquid pierced the white night. The flow rate of that liquid even exceeded that of a high-speed water jet in industry.
The monster's enormous eyes began to glow, preparing to unleash energy.
Bai Ye was fearless. The wind blades around his body spun even faster, and he himself suddenly accelerated, crashing straight into the monster's body.
Rotation, cutting, grinding, drilling...
In an instant, the monster howled as it felt a tiny figure enter its heart.
In a physical sense.
……
"He's having so much fun." Ghost Shark couldn't help but laugh as he watched White Night rampage through the monster's body.
"I told you, Bai Ye is alright." Skadi said this, but she also breathed a sigh of relief.
Greta raised an eyebrow.
It's too messy.
The commotion here is huge.
However, they had already reached the church floor, escaping the monster's tentacles.
"That's about it. Its size and weight are about right here."
With her extensive experience, Gladys could tell at a glance that the monster's swollen body had reached its limit.
No living thing can multiply indefinitely; it needs nutrients. However, this monster's foolish and unrestrained expansion has exhausted all its remaining nutrients.
It's time to fight back.
But it seems there's nothing else they need to do?
Because Bai Ye had already done too much, the seawater was full of severed tentacles, shredded pieces of flesh, and bits of meat mixed in with the surging whirlpools...
Right now, Bai Ye is still cutting inside the monster's body. He wants to chop it up bit by bit, finely mincing it into a paste.
"I will never let you off easily."
Chapter Thirty-Five: Summoning the Storm
"WAAAAAAAGH!"
The monster roared madly.
But its lungs had already been transformed into water-filtering organs, and it could only helplessly inflate its sac. The bishop was terrified; he had no lungs, no vocal tract, and this sound was merely a new way for his new body to replace screams.
A loud booming sound produced by the vibration of a certain eardrum.
A thick stream of foul air was forced out of its mouthparts. It desperately rolled up its overgrown body, and the gas it ejected produced a sharp sound as it rubbed against its several rings of hard bony teeth.
The bishop could not understand why Bai Ye could unleash such powerful energy; this seemingly insignificant body contained a terrifying storm capable of obliterating flesh and blood.
No, this can't go on!
The bishop could feel his flesh being worn away every moment, and the muscle tissue that was strong enough to support his huge body after the mutation was being cut up all the time.
Do not!
It cannot stop here! It has approached perfection; it has glimpsed the truth!
It needs to evolve. It needs to evolve even more! Its inner shell should be able to expand and break free from its body!
Its flesh and blood should be able to continue to proliferate and heal itself, trapping this damned false god inside its body and exhausting its strength!
Its sac-like processes should be able to become engorged with blood like spikes and then scatter in all directions... Its nerves should be able to release a large amount of electrical charge, rapidly twisting the nerve endings into hard weapons!
Its body shouldn't be rooted to the seabed! It should be able to move, yes, move! It should be able to slide and swim among the ruins, and rush straight to the dome!
But, it can't be done.
Even now, the bishop still hasn't figured out what made it surpass its original kind, allowing it to grow, yet also causing its downfall.
This is the entire swarm, which provides nourishment and sustenance for its evolution. The swarm supplies it, but it consumes it too quickly.
Overgrowth consumed a lot of its nutrients, and now, it instinctively released pheromones, attracting a school of feral fish—but not fast enough, too late, to reach the abundant nutrients.
Bai Ye won't give it that chance!
However, just as Bai Ye was about to continue, a voice called out to him from the encrypted communication channel in his headset—
That's Kal'tsit.
"Bai Ye, finish this quickly!"
"You've made a huge commotion!"
……
Bai Ye then remembered his powers and the consequences of his uncontrolled outburst during the last sword-forging process.
He is an individual capable of triggering natural disasters. If he continues to relentlessly pursue power and uses it without restraint, he will cause a tsunami next to Saltwind City and also cause the Originium energy in the air to become highly active, resulting in a natural disaster.
Thinking of this, Bai Ye did not hesitate, but adjusted his direction and soared into the sky.
Bai Ye broke free from the shackles of the monster's flesh and blood, the blockade of the seawater and whirlpool, and the rock layers of the underground cavern, leaping directly out of the sea.
Underwater, perception of the outside world becomes much weaker. The seabed may be calm, but the waves on the surface could be powerful enough to capsize a giant ship.
After seeing the light of day again, Baiye discovered what Dr. Kal'tsit meant by "causing too much of a commotion"—in the sky, high concentrations of Originium energy gathered due to an abnormal meteorological breakthrough, forming terrifying natural disaster clouds.
Golden lightning flashed and danced in the clouds, while the pitch-black sky seemed to collapse, pressing down very low.
The sea was no longer calm; the raging storm whipped up wave after wave of waves, while the swirling air blades around Bai Ye's body stirred up turbulent undercurrents in the sea.
Under this constant turbulence, the waves will grow larger and larger, and may even trigger a tsunami powerful enough to engulf the coastline.
"Skadi! Shark! Gretia!"
Bai Ye called out the names of the three deep-sea hunters, then grasped the "Wind Chime," the blade shining brighter than ever before...
-------------------------------------
"Sir, what's going on?!"
Elene forcefully pulled a citizen of Saltwind back behind the sturdy bunker, thanks to the technological legacy of the Iberian Golden Age, which made the buildings strong enough to withstand such a storm.
“A natural disaster.” The Grand Inquisitor looked at the dark clouds overhead, his tone remaining calm.
However, he was well aware of the terrifying consequences that such a celestial phenomenon could bring.
No one knows whether these giant waves and tsunamis will spread to other places. The ocean is a whole, and the chain reaction brought about by changes in weather is extremely terrifying.
In addition... those monstrous fish, the sea creatures, and that huge, abominable monster in the direction of the church.
Yes, even from such a distance, everyone present could see the monster that Bishop Quintus had transformed into, emerging from the water.
It looks so huge from a distance; if you were to get up close, it would probably be even more awe-inspiring than it is now.
Elena thought to herself that if she were to face such a monster, she would probably have no ability to resist and would only feel despair.
She even suspected that if they were to confront each other head-on, she would not be able to stand up to her respected mentor and superior, the Grand Inquisitor Dario.
"Misfortunes never come singly." Although Dr. Kal'tsit knew that this natural disaster might have been caused by one of her own incompetent operators, she didn't say it aloud.
Having finally reached a fragile consensus with these stubborn Liberian judges, wouldn't it be like adding insult to injury to our own people if we revealed that the disaster that could destroy the Iberian coast was caused by the White Night?
"Doctor, you were right before. Even without the interference of natural disasters, the explosives in my casket cannot destroy this monstrous creature."
Even if it could blow the entire church to smithereens, it probably still wouldn't be enough for a monster of that size.
Just then, Elena suddenly pointed to the sky and said, "There's something bright shining in the storm!"
"Wait! That's a person!"
"It's that outsider! Sir, he can fly! He can even glow! His sword glows!"
Then, Elena heard the female doctor beside her breathe a sigh of relief.
-------------------------------------
As the White Night called, the deep-sea hunters stirred.
They jumped down to the foot of the white night and stood on the ruins of the broken church.
"What do we need to do?"
"Greteia asked."
"Help me stall them!"
As Bai Ye spoke, he gripped the longsword with both hands and pointed it towards the sky.
