Ibira remained still, until Faceless took a step forward, striding towards Ibira.
The distance between them closed, until Faceless loomed like a mountain before Ibira, then raised his front limbs high, swinging down like a battle axe!
With a thunderous crash, Ibira on the ground was instantly crushed into mush by Faceless!
However, when the dust settled, Ibira's body scattered like foam, leaving only a thick octopus tentacle behind at the original spot.
Limb Sacrifice (SSS-level, active skill): A unique ability of the octopus species. When facing a fatal blow, it can sacrifice a tentacle in place of the main body’s death!
"Stand-in... or a death substitute ability."
Wen Yu observed his surroundings and immediately saw through Ibira's trick. It was evident that Faceless also noticed that Ibira was different. He raised his head and scanned the area, quickly locating Ibira's life aura somewhere underground.
However, just as Faceless moved a step, he instantly felt Ibira's aura fluctuating and rapidly increasing, jumping three levels in a short time!
At this moment, facing the immense pressure from the stars, Ibira decisively ascended three levels to generate enough skills for a turnaround!
For a limit breaker, levels are just numbers. As the level restraint shatters, any non-professional limit breaker can elevate to a higher rank with just a thought.
This promotion speed was astonishingly fast, so fast that Faceless had no time to react, and Ibira initiated the attack first!
Accompanied by the turmoil of the sea floor, a thick octopus tentacle burst forth from the ground. The octopus tentacle, which was previously only ten meters long, had now tripled in length!
The strong tentacle quickly coiled around Faceless’s ankle, then forcefully constricted, its slime and suction seemingly piercing into Faceless's body like nails, leaving him unable to escape no matter how he struggled.
Even more terrifying was that with the activation of the Evil Flow Guardian, Faceless's scale armor began to corrode as if eroded by strong acid, becoming weak and limp.
Previously, when Wen Yu used the Dream Come True skill system to weaken Faceless's physical attributes, he also cut down a significant portion of Faceless's racial talents and bodily functions—if he had only weakened physical attributes, Ibira would probably not even be able to break through Faceless's surface defense.
This was merely a test and examination; Wen Yu also needed to strive for fairness, right?
...
Facts proved that when two giant beasts had physical attributes, bodily functions, and racial talents at the same level, Ibira indeed was not inferior to the spirit pet that Wen Yu had painstakingly cultivated.
The deep-sea environment effectively negated Faceless's dragon flame, yet with the activation of the demon dragon armor, the corrosive power brought by the Evil Flow Guardian was repeatedly weakened until the scales on Faceless's ankle completely shattered, and Ibira's corrosive ability could no longer persist.
Suddenly, with a loud bang, seven other tentacles of varying lengths abruptly erupted from the soil, forming a massive cage that fiercely bound Faceless in place.
Wen Yu, keen-eyed, quickly noticed that one of the tentacles was slightly smaller than the others, which should have regrown under the effect of High-Speed Fission (SSS-level, passive skill).
Limb Sacrifice (SSS-level, active skill) and High-Speed Fission (SSS-level, passive skill) created a powerful recovery capability system in Ibira.
Unfortunately, Wen Yu had no need for this recovery capability system—it was far inferior to his own recovery system.
Ibira's eight tentacles locked down Faceless's legs and tail. Faced with Ibira's blockade, Faceless struggled hard but could not break free for a long time, until another rumbling noise sounded, and a gigantic dragon head, no smaller than Faceless's own, suddenly burst through the seabed mud, opening its mouth wide and lunging to bite Faceless!
