Chapter 160: Like a Demon God

Witnessing Yeh Hai pull his own spine out sent a chill through everyone present.

The Saint's expression turned exceptionally grim.

The abilities Yeh Hai had displayed in such a short span of time filled him with dread.

First was the capability to summon an army.

Such a feat, which practically defied conventional common sense, did not shock the Saint too deeply.

After all, the portals he used and his sister's ability to resurrect the dead, while seemingly miraculous to others, were nothing more than so-called divine power to the Saint, who had escaped alive from the subterranean depths.

However, whether it was the vampires or the dismembered goblins summoned by Yeh Hai, they were able to fight the terrifying Xenomorphs to a complete standstill.

This was something the Saint had never anticipated, and it forced him for the first time to properly acknowledge the immense power Yeh Hai commanded.

Following that, Yeh Hai demonstrated the ability to zombify.

Though surprising to the Saint, such an ability was possessed by both the Crusaders and the Missionaries, making it not entirely uncommon.

It was just that as Perfect Blessed Ones, neither the Saint, the Saintess, nor the four High Pontiffs of the Shesha Sect possessed the capability to transform.

This detail sparked a lingering curiosity within the Saint regarding Yeh Hai's abilities.

Yet, mere abilities were not enough to strike terror into the Saint's heart.

It was this ruthless cruelty toward himself that truly chilled the Saint to the bone.

At that moment, Yeh Hai appeared like a demon god in the eyes of everyone in the Dusa Resistance.

A seed of fear was even deeply planted in the hearts of these people.

Yet Yeh Hai was completely oblivious to this perception.

Instead, he kept cursing endlessly, full of grievance over Liszt's arbitrary actions.

For the longest time, Yeh Hai had been quite reluctant to mechanize his own body.

Even though Donald's mechanical gene technology had reached a high level of maturity, stuffing his body full of metal always felt awkward to Yeh Hai, even if he could hardly be considered a normal human anymore.

However, after experiencing the devastation of the Radiation Zone and the destruction of the Pilates Black Market, Yeh Hai, urgently craving greater power, ultimately accepted Liszt's modification.

His original proposal was to modify the two extra shoulder blades that sprouted in his G3 form.

Those arms possessed no sense of pain, so Yeh Hai wouldn't feel any heartache if he dismantled them.

Instead, that fellow Liszt, driven by a mischievous streak, ignored Yeh Hai's blueprint and directly modified his spine.

This left Yeh Hai utterly speechless for a long time, and he remained extremely reluctant to use this bone-soul blade.

After all, what kind of pervert would willingly pull out their own spine!

Anyone who witnessed this scene regarded Yeh Hai as an exceptionally cruel and ferocious monster, inflicting a massive shock upon their minds.

Some people, stunned by Yeh Hai's actions, stood frozen in place and were crushed into pulp by the giant serpent.

Wielding this massive bone-soul saber gave Yeh Hai a very peculiar sensation.

Perhaps because the blade was entirely assembled from the bones stripped from his own body, Yeh Hai felt a faint trace of a bloodline connection.

This long saber seemed like a direct extension of himself.

Looking at the giant serpent Xenomorph still wreaking havoc among the crowd, Yeh Hai gripped the long saber with his backhand and charged forward fiercely.

Observing Yeh Hai's movement, the giant serpent Xenomorph immediately abandoned the others and launched a lightning-fast strike toward Yeh Hai.

Its tail swept horizontally toward Yeh Hai like a small mountain.

This time, the usually cautious Yeh Hai did not dodge.

Instead, holding the bone-soul saber high, he stood unmovable.

Taking a deep breath, the four arms of Yeh Hai's G3 form gripped the hilt.

His four arms bulged, the rear arms swelling to a degree comparable to Yeh Hai's own thick waist.

Facing the oncoming serpent tail accompanied by a violent gale, Yeh Hai widened his eyes and let out a mighty roar.

The bone-soul blade slashed downward with the crushing force of a thunderbolt.

This strike commanded the attention of all.

Whether it was the Dusa Resistance or the Xenomorphs, they all halted in their tracks under the impact of this head-on confrontation between Yeh Hai and the giant serpent Xenomorph, turning their gazes toward this side.

The next second, the bone-soul blade collided with the serpent's tail.

Yeh Hai stood as firm as a needle calming the stormy seas, his posture remaining upright amid the violent impact.

"Cut right through for me!"

The long saber looked so minuscule in front of the giant serpent, comparable to an embroidery needle facing a massive tree—completely out of proportion.

Yet, it was precisely this embroidery needle that, the moment it collided with the serpent's armor-plated body, sliced into the creature's flesh as smoothly as cutting through tofu, without the slightest resistance.

This prompted gasps of astonishment from the fighters of the Dusa Resistance.

With all four arms tightly grasping the butcher's blade, Yeh Hai stood like someone on a seashore facing the sheer impact of a towering black wave tens of meters high.

With a single slash, the giant wave cleaved apart...

Vast quantities of highly corrosive acidic blood poured down upon Yeh Hai's head like a torrential downpour.

In a mere instant, Yeh Hai's body was corroded beyond human recognition.

A frenzied roar erupted from Yeh Hai's throat.

Accompanied by his roar, the minuscule figure standing beneath the massive serpent was locked in a frantic cycle of dissolving and regenerating.

The intense acid corrosion caused thick plumes of vapor to rise from Yeh Hai's body—steam generated by flesh and blood being instantly melted away.

Even though the fighters of the Dusa Resistance had not personally experienced the terrifying ordeal of being dissolved by strong acid while simultaneously regrowing tender flesh, just one look was enough to evoke a sense of soul-rending agony.

A chill gripped everyone's bodies, and some of the more timid individuals even began to shiver uncontrollably.

At that moment, the image of Yeh Hai roaring toward the heavens like a demon god was etched into the mind of everyone who witnessed the spectacle.

"A monster! That guy is the real monster."

Meanwhile, Yeh Hai himself was suffering in silence, unable to voice his misery.

Such a posture of crying out to the skies was merely his way of venting the unbearable pain.

Faced with the heavy acid rain splashing down as the giant serpent was sliced in two, it wasn't that Yeh Hai didn't want to dodge or move.

It was simply that his feet had melted like candle wax, sticking firmly to the ground, leaving him completely immobilized.

"Liszt, you turtle bastard, who knew this damn thing would be so sharp..."

"It hurts like hell, I'm going to settle the score with you!"

Standing amidst the bloody rain, Yeh Hai cursed Liszt frantically.

Even though Liszt's modification of Yeh Hai's spine had absolutely nothing to do with Yeh Hai being pinned in place to endure the acid bath.

The giant serpent beside Yeh Hai was faring no better.

As Yeh Hai was sealed onto the edge of the bone-soul blade, blood infused with the G-virus seeped into its body.

The giant serpent's body, previously hard as refined steel, instantly ulcerated into a bloody, rotting mess, which rapidly spread across its entire frame.

At this moment, the giant serpent resembled a decaying piece of massive black timber, with disgusting pustules of flesh constantly erupting along the cut of its wound.

The G-virus within its body collided violently with the Black Goo virus.

This collision caused the giant serpent excruciating agony.

If Yeh Hai's present sensation was akin to being continuously dissolved by strong acid, then the giant serpent's experience was that of cancer cells frantically multiplying and expanding within its body.

The clash between the two terrifying viruses even caused the serpent's body to emit a continuous crackling sound reminiscent of firecrackers...

After a long while.

Yeh Hai's body finally restored itself to the G3 form.

The remaining two-thirds of the giant serpent's body had also completely neutralized and eradicated the G-virus within, falling silent once more.

Opening its massive jaws anew, a look of madness burning in its eyes, the giant serpent lunged toward Yeh Hai.

Yeh Hai showed no courtesy in return, raising the bone-soul blade to slash down once again.

Without any technique or retreat from either side, the two raging monsters collided with a resounding crash once more!
