Sublimation, Part 2

One of the beams sliced past less than three kilometers in front of Wei He. Its terrifying power made every bit of flesh on his body twitch, and he hurriedly turned and fled.

The Black Goat monster from earlier let out an angry roar and charged straight into the beam.

The scales all over its body began to glow and heat up. Countless streams of black smoke evaporated from it, turning into black mist that abruptly enveloped the beast-tide army and blocked the beam's bombardment.

At that moment, all the contaminated beasts seemed to receive a unified command.

Wei He was swept along among them, rapidly flying away from the Free Battle Star.

Before long, vast numbers of contaminated beasts and giant beast soldiers reverted to their spheres of flesh and blood.

A flash of Black Light swept through them, and the flesh spheres immediately faded away and vanished, as though they had never come here at all.

Caught within them, Wei He had perfectly mimicked the form of the Spiked Dragon Beast he had killed and was surrounded in the middle layer by countless contaminated beasts.

As the flesh sphere gradually faded away, he blended into it and slowly disappeared as well.
