Giant Mammoth Legion

Han Wu refused to be outdone. The portal opened, and endless locusts poured forth from within.

Their numbers were so great they blotted out the sky and covered the sun.

The demigod Elephant Lord marveled at the sheer number of Han Wu's locusts.

To cultivate so many locusts, Han Wu must have put in tremendous effort and invested vast resources.

But having great numbers did not mean being powerful.

Even among Elite Lifeforms, a hundred thousand locusts might not be a match for a single Giant Mammoth.

"Is this all you've got? Just a pile of trash?" the demigod Elephant Lord scoffed.

In his eyes, the Elite Lifeform locusts Han Wu had released posed no threat whatsoever to his Giant Mammoth Legion.

Han Wu merely smiled without speaking.

After the Elite Lifeform Heavenly Demon Insects, Fallen Insects, and Curse Insects flew out, the Extraordinary Lifeform locusts at the rear finally revealed themselves.

Poison Burst Heavenly Demon Insects cultivated by the insect nest, the Law of Gluttony, and Poison Mist Orbs.

Earth Burst Fallen Insects cultivated by the insect nest, the Law of Gluttony, and Earth Fire Lava Orbs.

Shadow Flow Curse Insects cultivated by the insect nest, the Law of Gluttony, and Shadow Spikes.

The total number of these three types of Extraordinary Lifeform locusts reached eighteen thousand.

The moment they appeared, they immediately drew the attention of the entire audience.

"Extraordinary Lifeforms? They really are Extraordinary Lifeforms—and there are so many of them!"

"Are these still locusts? What kind of evolution and mutation did locusts undergo to become this powerful?"

"I seriously suspect that Locust Plague is some great family's young master sent out for training. How many resources would it take to raise locusts to this extent?"

Even the demigod Elephant Lord straightened his posture at the sight, no longer daring to underestimate Han Wu.

Turning the most ordinary locusts into Extraordinary Lifeforms was enough to show what a genius their cultivator was.

Han Wu, meanwhile, was thinking that if he had just one more day, he could increase the number of Extraordinary Lifeform locusts tenfold.

What kind of scene would that be then?

"Is this your true strength? I'm starting to look forward to it!" the demigod Elephant Lord said excitedly.

Han Wu still did not answer.

The preparation time ended, and the competition officially began.

At once, the Elephant Lord issued a Divine Decree. The Heroic Lifeform, Giant Thunder Mammoth, unleashed its skill.

Level 3 skill: Intermediate Thunder Breath.

Endless arcs of electricity sprayed from the Giant Thunder Mammoth's long trunk, crashing into the oncoming swarm.

A burst of crackling followed as large numbers of locusts had their lives claimed by the lightning arcs.

Han Wu refused to be outdone, and the Curse Insects launched their assault.

Level 2 skill: Beginner Shadow Spike.

Shadow Spikes formed entirely from dark elements stabbed into the Giant Thunder Mammoth's shadow.

Each Curse Insect was weak, and the Shadow Spikes they released could not achieve a restraining effect.

But when the number of Shadow Spikes reached the tens of thousands, the Giant Thunder Mammoth's movements became severely sluggish.

When the number of Shadow Spikes reached a hundred thousand, every movement the Giant Thunder Mammoth made became incomparably strenuous.

When the number of Shadow Spikes exceeded a million, the Giant Thunder Mammoth became like a statue, frozen in place without moving.

It had ultimately been immobilized by the Shadow Spikes!

Han Wu hurriedly gave the command. "Extraordinary Lifeform: Poison Burst Heavenly Demon Insects, attack!"

The Poison Burst Heavenly Demon Insects beat their wings and raised the horns atop their heads, stabbing toward the Giant Thunder Mammoth.

The Giant Thunder Mammoth's hide was thick and tough. Even the Extraordinary Lifeform Poison Burst Heavenly Demon Insects, giving everything they had, could only pierce a finger's depth into it.

To the Giant Thunder Mammoth, such a depth was no different from a scratch.

The demigod Elephant Lord immediately burst into arrogant laughter. "So what if you can cultivate locusts into Extraordinary Lifeforms? Even if my Giant Thunder Mammoths stand still, you still can't harm them in the slightest."

Hearing the Elephant Lord's words, Han Wu finally replied. "Are you sure?"

As he spoke, the Poison Burst Heavenly Demon Insects exploded with a bang, their flesh bursting into vast clouds of poisonous mist that blanketed the surroundings.

Even their horns, propelled by the explosion, drove deeper inside.

The poison was successfully injected into the Giant Thunder Mammoth's body.

The poison contained in a single Poison Burst Heavenly Demon Insect was limited, nowhere near enough to poison such a massive Giant Thunder Mammoth.

But Han Wu had a full six thousand Poison Burst Heavenly Demon Insects.

If one was not enough, then two. If two were not enough, then four...

So long as the Giant Thunder Mammoth could not break free from the Shadow Spikes' immobilization, it would suffer the Poison Burst Heavenly Demon Insects' unceasing attacks.

The Elephant Lord guessed Han Wu's intentions and immediately issued a Divine Decree, ordering the Giant Mammoth Legion to stop Han Wu's plan and rescue the Giant Thunder Mammoths.

Han Wu countered move for move, directing a vast swarm of Locusts to attack the Giant Mammoth Legion.

Those Elite Lifeform Giant Mammoths were easier to deal with than the Heroic Lifeform Giant Thunder Mammoths.

Can't find it by searching the book title? Try searching for the author—it might have simply been renamed!

Amid repeated explosions, casualties began appearing within the Giant Mammoth Legion.

The Elephant Lord watched the scene, his expression turning grave.

He had thought he had already overestimated Han Wu, yet he had still underestimated him.

Though it was somewhat beneath him for a demigod to fight a Divine Being, the Elephant Lord could not stand by and watch his followers suffer grievous injuries.

He drew upon the divine power within his body and activated divine arts.

Savage Divine Art: Thick Armor.

Savage Divine Art: Blood Qi.

Savage Divine Art: Healing.

After casting three divine arts in succession, more than half of the Elephant Lord's divine power had been depleted.

But the results were immediately apparent.

Nourished by the divine arts, the wounded Giant Mammoths' injuries rapidly healed, while a thick layer of Blood Qi Shell condensed over their bodies.

When the Locusts' self-destructions struck it, they could only reduce the thickness of the Blood Qi Shell and could not harm the Giant Mammoths in the slightest.

Meanwhile, the Giant Mammoths could casually swing their trunks and crush vast numbers of Locusts.

Even when the Locusts flew high enough to leave the Giant Mammoths' Attack Range, the Giant Mammoths could inhale through their trunks, drawing a small number of Locusts before them and smashing them apart.

Han Wu's situation had become very unfavorable.

"Being able to force me to use divine arts has already proven your strength. Once I kill fifty percent of your followers, I will allow you to concede." Though the Elephant Lord held every advantage, he had no intention of wiping Han Wu out completely.

A genius capable of raising ordinary Locusts to such a degree would certainly not stop at becoming a Divine Being.

The Elephant Lord wanted to leave a good impression before Han Wu truly rose to prominence.

But the word surrender did not exist in Han Wu's dictionary.

Besides, he had not even gone all out yet.

"Hear my command: Minotaur Race, move out!" Han Wu suddenly issued a Divine Decree, and a portal opened behind him.

Having received the Divine Decree in the divine realm, the Minotaur Race marched into the arena with high spirits and lofty resolve.

At their head, the Heroic Lifeform Minotaur Shaman let out a furious roar.

The Minotaurs who followed all imitated it.

A total of 2,604 Minotaurs charged valiantly into the opposing Giant Mammoth Legion of 740,000.

The sudden turn of events left the Elephant Lord stunned for several seconds before he finally reacted.

His opponent was actually raising Minotaurs as well!

They were an exceptionally formidable kind of Demonic Beast among the races of the Demon Abyss, yet they willingly obeyed his opponent's commands.

It was truly astonishing.

But Han Wu's attack was not over.

His gaze followed the Minotaurs' advance, and before long, a Giant Mammoth died beneath the Minotaur Shaman's totem.

Han Wu immediately issued another Divine Decree. "Skeleton Race, attack!"

Behind him, another portal opened.

One hundred and ninety Skeleton Knights emerged from the portal carrying a large sedan chair built from bones.

The Skeleton Lord sat in the sedan chair's seat. Its comically small stature struck an exceedingly imposing pose, like a child wielding an oversized spear.

Beside the Skeleton Lord stood two Heroic Lifeforms: the Bone Controller and the Bone Reviver.

They were like two servants, ready at any moment to attend to the Skeleton Lord.

The sight left every spectator utterly dumbfounded.

Someone said in disbelief, "I think I just saw the Skeleton Race's famed Heroic Lifeform, the Bone Controller. It must be an illusion—this has to be an illusion! Can someone help slap me awake?"

"Brother, I'm hallucinating too. Let's slap each other and see if we can break this illusion spell."

"Fuck this, refund my ticket! How the hell are we supposed to play this? A demigod only has one Heroic Lifeform, yet a Divine Being summoned three Heroic Lifeforms, plus a special existence suspected to be a Lord Lifeform. Is that reasonable? Someone in charge of the Bloody Arena, come out and explain!"

"It's rigged—it has to be rigged. I get it now. They're pulling this stunt just to scam us out of our money. The Bloody Arena has no divine ethics. I advise you to behave yourselves!"

Han Wu had never dreamed that the Skeleton Race he summoned would make the spectators turn their outrage toward the Bloody Arena.

But however much the spectators kicked up a fuss had nothing to do with him.

His current goal was to defeat his opponent while revealing as few trump cards as possible.

"Bone Reviver, I'm counting on you." Han Wu jumped onto the sedan chair, lifted Little Skeleton from the seat, and sat down himself.

The Skeleton Lord, who looked like a Little Skeleton, was furious at Han Wu for occupying its throne, yet there was nothing it could do.

After all, Han Wu was the god who provided for its food and drink.

The Heroic Lifeform, Bone Reviver, accepted the order. It first respectfully bowed to the god Han Wu, then leaped up and, with Locust's assistance, floated above the Giant Mammoth Legion.

It unleashed its mass resurrection ability upon the dead Giant Mammoths below.

In an instant, a Skeleton Mammoth broke free from the shackles of flesh and blood within a Giant Mammoth's corpse and rose to its feet.

Without flesh, it had lost its nimble trunk, but the two long tusks at the corners of its mouth had become even sharper.

The Skeleton Mammoth, now changed in race, immediately swung its long tusks and stabbed at the companions that had once stood around it.

Before long, another Giant Mammoth fell dead.
