Beast of Death's Devour

Chapter 896, 'Beast of Death's Devour'

"Raaahhhhhhh----!"

On the battlefield engulfed in flames, Cu Chulainn threw back his head and roared, astonishingly ominous magical energy erupting from his entire body and covering him completely, sending crimson flames surging outward.

Within those flames, Cu Chulainn's entire body began to change.

More precisely, he seemed to transform into a monster. Thorn-like spines protruded from his body, which was covered in scale-like armor. Even his head was replaced by the skull of a ferocious beast, while both hands transformed into a pair of sharp claws. He had completely changed beyond recognition.

Under these circumstances, the magical energy throughout Cu Chulainn's body surged wildly, sweeping across the entire battlefield like a hurricane.

"What...!?"

Mashu was stunned.

"That is...!?"

Scathach was equally shocked.

Luo Zhen narrowed his eyes as well and spoke in utter surprise.

"What is going on?"

Had Cu Chulainn turned into a monster?

"Could it be the influence of absorbing the 'Holy Grail'?"

That was what Luo Zhen thought.

However, Scathach immediately denied the idea.

"No, that power did not come from the 'Holy Grail.'"

Scathach continued dodging the Dragon Breath rushing toward her while staring intently at the monstrous Cu Chulainn. Her expression was grave as she spoke.

"That is the power of the demonic spear."

Scathach stated it with certainty.

"The demonic spear?"

Luo Zhen was startled at first, then understood.

It was said that, unlike the old-style demonic spear Scathach used, the demonic spear wielded by Cu Chulainn had been forged from a different material.

Scathach's demonic spear had been made from a plant from the distant Age of Gods, but Cu Chulainn's demonic spear was different.

It had been crafted from the bones of a sea beast from the Red Sea, and it naturally carried a vicious aura
