Chapter 1022 Rampage
Although Liu Yan did not know the specific purpose of these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, he could roughly guess with a slight guess.
There was either an extremely terrifying Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower waiting for Liu Yan's arrival or a trap set up for him.
The eight formidable Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers behind Liu Yan weren't refraining from attacking him altogether. Instead, they were awaiting something, either the trap ahead to be sprung or the arrival of comrades to create a pincer attack on Liu Yan.
At the same time, the eight powerful Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers behind him were also cutting off Liu Yan's rear path.
They weren't attacking Liu Yan from all directions. Instead, they were blocking all of Liu Yan's escape routes.
After roughly figuring out the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower's plot, Liu Yan was no longer very worried.
Even though he knew that there might be danger ahead, Liu Yan was confident in his strength and naturally wanted to give it a try.
After all, within the core area of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, highly valuable treasures were likely present. Leveraging such treasures and combining them with Liu Yan's SSS-grade talent, the Divine Extraction, he could significantly enhance his capabilities.
Even though the risk was apparent, Liu Yan was willing to explore this opportunity.
Most importantly, Liu Yan's confidence in his strength remained steadfast. Even if he were to be outmatched, he believed he could still secure his escape.
Thus, regardless of the impending peril, even if it was a danger unnoticed by the Withered Tree Spirit King, Liu Yan was determined to move forward and investigate.
However, before proceeding, Liu Yan intended to eliminate the trouble behind him.
Liu Yan was reluctant to find himself caught in a two-pronged assault.
Prioritizing dealing with the powerful Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers behind him, Liu Yan would then confidently press forward, ready to take risks and venture into the unknown.
Since the eight formidable Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were not proactively engaging him, Liu Yan saw no reason to wait any longer.
If they wouldn't come to him, he would go to them!
Activating his SSS-grade special equipment, the Wings of Wind God, Liu Yan immediately changed direction and flew towards the rear.
The eight powerful Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were observing Liu Yan's movements. Seeing him abruptly alter course and charge towards them, they were taken aback, clearly unprepared for Liu Yan's resolute about-face. Liu Yan's SS-grade Fire Elemental Domain remained activated and fully unleashed.
As Liu Yan advanced, a multitude of 14-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were grazed by his fire elemental domain, and instantly burned to ashes. They couldn't be any more dead.
However, Liu Yan paid these ordinary Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers no heed. His objective was naturally the eight formidable Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers! action
Liu Yan accelerated directly towards the rear. Within moments, he identified two potent Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.
These two Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers each boasted 17-star combat strength, indicative of their formidable power.
Without hesitation, Liu Yan pressed forward, flying directly toward these two 17-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.
Seeing Liu Yan rapidly closing in, the two Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers panicked and quickly dispersed to escape.
Having reached their level of power, their spiritual intelligence was on par with humans. They would not recklessly meet their end like ordinary Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. Instead, they swiftly fled when danger loomed, driven by a strong survival instinct.
"Where do you think you're running?"
Liu Yan let out a cold snort and immediately activated his S-grade skill, Dominate.
The SS weapon in his hand, the Thousand Thunder Halberd, was instantly hurled by Liu Yan.
The passive effect of the S-grade skill Dominate allowed Liu Yan to gain a basic understanding of how to wield any weapon.
The active effect of Dominate, an S-grade skill, enabled Liu Yan to throw any weapon he held.
The moment these weapons were thrown, they not only carried a terrifying impact but also a potent physical attack effect.
Furthermore, these weapons would automatically unleash their most powerful strike to assail the opponent.
Despite being only an S-grade skill, Dominate's special mechanics meant that when powerful weapons were thrown, the unleashed power far exceeded what typical S-grade skills could achieve.
In certain exceptional situations, Dominate, the S-grade skill, could even rival the attack effects of most SS-grade skills!
And now, this was exactly the case.
The instant the SS-grade Thousand Thunder Halberd was thrown by Liu Yan employing his S-grade skill, it spontaneously triggered its most formidable assault.
The lightning attributes elemental powers surrounding the Thousand Thunder Halberd immediately condensed onto its surface. In an instant, the Thousand Thunder Halberd was enshrouded in a terrifying aura of lightning attribute elemental powers.
Some of the 14-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers that were close by were instantly shattered by the force of this lightning attribute elemental powers.
If the dispersed lightning attribute elemental energy exhibited such power, the concentration of lightning elemental energy on the Thousand Thunder Halberd was bound to be even more overwhelming!
The SS-grade weapon, the Thousand Thunder Halberd, hurtled forward under Liu Yan's throw, aimed directly at a 17-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower.
Although the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower was formidable, its expertise primarily lay in mental attacks and defense.
Its speed was not particularly remarkable.
However, at this instant, the Thousand Thunder Halberd, thrown by Liu Yan, moved at an astonishing speed.
Even the 17-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower had no time to evade, and it was directly struck by the Thousand Thunder Halberd.
The Thousand Thunder Halberd bore a dreadful physical impact and surged with lightning attribute elemental power.
Under the simultaneous release of these twin forces, the 17-star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower had no chance of withstanding the assault. It shattered in an instant, dying an unrecoverable death!
Not far away, another Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower with 17-Star combat strength that was attempting to escape was also caught in the burst of terrifying lightning attribute elemental power, instantly sustaining significant injuries.
In the rear, Liu Yan had already drawn his S-grade weapon, the Flying Cloud Mystic Bow.
His S-grade Lightning Talent was activated, and in an instant, a dense collection of lightning attribute elemental power formed into arrow feathers on the Flying Cloud Mystic Bow.
In the moment of formation, Liu Yan released the bowstring.
The arrow feathers, condensed from lightning attribute elemental power, shot out in an instant, striking the target with lethal precision. The last Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower with 17-star combat strength was slain on the spot!
In the blink of an eye, both of the 17-Star combat strength Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers had been swiftly dealt with by Liu Yan, one after the other.
The combined time for these encounters didn't exceed 10 seconds.
For others, the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers with their terrifying 17-star combat strength might have posed an immense threat, but under Liu Yan's command, they were dispatched with remarkable ease.
Liu Yan advanced through the air, retrieving his SS-grade weapon, the Thousand Thunder Halberd.
The Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower directly hit by the Thousand Thunder Halberd had been subjected to both a horrific physical impact and a simultaneous surge of formidable lightning attribute elemental power. Consequently, it had disintegrated into fragments of skin, leaving no discernible remains.
Liu Yan felt a touch of helplessness. He hadn't expected the S-grade skill Dominate, used to throw the SS-grade Thousand Thunder Halberd, to possess such terrifying might. It couldn't even leave behind a partially intact corpse.
Turning towards the other side, Liu Yan collected the remains of another Hallucinatory Man-eating Flower with 17-star combat strength. Without lingering, he flew in the direction of the remaining formidable Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.
As for the remaining five Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers with 17-star combat strength and one with 18-star combat strength, Liu Yan was determined to eliminate every one of them, leaving no survivors behind!
