The Mantis Giant Beast had been severely wounded, and its strength had fallen considerably. Otherwise, even the Death God Transformation wouldn't have let Lu Yin bridge such a huge gap and fight it.
Behind him, the Death Insect slammed toward him. Lu Yin's instincts screamed a warning. In his Death God Transformation, he couldn't use the Zhi Fou Realm ability of the Zhou Yan True Scripture. He had to endure the Death Insect's attack head-on, an impact that ignored the physical body.
This time, however, Lu Yin caught the Death Insect's trajectory.
To hit him, the Death Insect had to enter the area shrouded by the black-and-white mist around his body. Once it entered that range, death energy would entangle it and drastically slow it down. That was Lu Yin's only chance to catch it.
The first time, Lu Yin used the shield on his left arm to block the Death Insect's charge.
The second time, he swung his hook-sickle directly at it, landing his first hit and knocking the Death Insect away.
Behind him, the Mantis Giant Beast's blade scythe came down again. Lu Yin had just knocked the Death Insect away and had no time to defend himself. The blade scythe struck him, and its immense force sent him hurtling toward the ground. He crashed into the city, sparking a wave of panic.

Though one was badly wounded, its attacks remained fierce, and even Lu Yin's strikes had trouble penetrating its defenses. The other's movements were now within his grasp, but it was just as difficult to injure. The Death Insect's toughness had surpassed his expectations.
Together, the two giant beasts left him helpless.
