The connection came under attack, and Zhu Nü let out an angry roar. Then a phantom figure emerged from its back—a woman draped in a vermilion robe.
The woman had pale skin, long black hair parted down the middle and cascading over her shoulders, and exquisite, bewitchingly beautiful features. She was none other than Zhu Nü's Beast Soul!
After the Beast Soul manifested, Zhu Nü's oppressive presence skyrocketed. Bai? was still able to endure it, but Yang Kui and the other team members were having a much harder time.
They felt as though a massive rock had been placed on their chests, leaving them unable to breathe.
After the Beast Soul manifested, the Female Beast Soul on Zhu Nü's back raised both hands.
Black crystals appeared out of thin air, shooting toward the mecha and aberrations all around them.
Once its Beast Soul had appeared, Zhu Nü could directly generate Nightmare Crystals and use them to attack its opponents.
The Rock and the Great Swordsman hurriedly dodged. They did not shatter the crystals, because they knew that breaking them would only create an even more disadvantageous situation.
The Headless General and Lan Xiao did not share that concern. One swung its greatsword while the other hurled fireballs, both of them blasting the crystals apart.
The Nightmare Crystals shattered, instantly erupting into clouds of black powder that shrouded the aberrations like pitch-black mist.
The crystal powder could cause any living creature that inhaled it to fall into a nightmare.
But aberrations were nightmares made flesh to begin with, so Zhu Nü's crystal powder had no effect on them.
The Headless General charged straight through the black crystal mist. Its greatsword rose, unleashing an imposing aura as it cleaved downward, sending a swath of orange-red ripples slashing into Zhu Nü.
Severing Slash!
