Chapter 267 - Chapter 267: Ice Crystal Giant Moth

Qin Siyang let out a sigh of relief.

At this point, killing it was impossible.

The paralysis effect had taken hold, at least it wouldn't be able to chase him.

He had managed to save his life.

Qin Siyang exhaled deeply and, without hesitation, continued to dodge forward.

He wanted to quickly get out of the Corrosive Black Centipede's sight.

But before he could celebrate for long, the starlight above him was blocked by another massive creature.

Qin Siyang looked up.

A gigantic moth was circling above his head.

Its wings resembled enormous ice crystals, covered in frost and snow-like patterns.

Each time its wings flapped, fine ice crystal dust scattered, shimmering with a faint blue glow under the starlight.

Its body was an icy blue color, covered with neatly arranged ice-blue scales. Its eyes were like two finely-cut blue sapphires, transparent and sharply defined.

Qin Siyang's mouth fell open.

'When it rains, it pours. Another god?'

Just as he pulled out his phone, the moth suddenly flapped its wings, stirring up a hurricane.

Qin Siyang immediately activated Domain to evade.

When he steadied himself and looked back, he saw that the spot where he had just been standing had turned entirely into an ice sculpture.

As the cold wind swept by, the ice cracked inch by inch, shattering into ice crystals and dispersing over the wasteland.

All that remained was a massive, irregularly shaped crater.

Qin Siyang swallowed hard and quickly raised his phone to capture the scene.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

[Ice Crystal Giant Moth]

[Type: Medium-Sized god]

[The Ice Crystal Giant Moth is an extremely rare god, often only living near large or superior medium-sized plant-type gods. Sightings of it are extremely few.]

[By flapping its wings, it can create ultra-low-temperature hurricanes that freeze an entire area. Tier-2 armor can withstand one hurricane attack but cannot fully block the damage. Tier-3 armor can resist around five attacks.]

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

In other words, taking one hit might mean getting obliterated along with the armor.

Seeing this, Qin Siyang didn't even feel like saying anything anymore.

Another medium-sized god capable of breaking armor with ease.

He originally thought that Tier-2 Red Silk Armor should have a performance similar to the Tier-2 Short Bee Dagger.

But unexpectedly, while the Short Bee Dagger was fairly decent, the Red Silk Armor was practically made of paper.

Made by the same person, how could there be such a huge difference?

[When under attack, it can instantly generate an extremely hard ice shell. Any object that touches the ice shell will become brittle due to the ultra-low temperature and disintegrate into powder.]

[The Ice Crystal Giant Moth's weakness is currently unknown, but it is speculated to be extremely high-temperature attacks.]

[The Ice Crystal Giant Moth is extremely rare and seldom seen. So far, no powerful sequence ability users have encountered one, so there are no records of it being hunted in safe zones. Countless researchers hope to obtain materials from the Ice Crystal Giant Moth for study, as it has enormous research potential.]

Qin Siyang glanced at the giant fluttering moth in the sky, his mouth drooping as his expression darkened.

'Huh?'

'This medium-sized god has never been killed by a sequence ability user before?'

He hadn't expected that the Ice Crystal Giant Moth would be even more troublesome than the Corrosive Black Centipede from earlier.

'At least that centipede has a known weakness.'

'But this fluttering moth has an unknown weakness. How am I supposed to kill it?'

'Forget it.'

'Better keep running.'

Qin Siyang kept fleeing forward.

But the Ice Crystal Giant Moth flying overhead had no intention of letting him go.

With a flap of its wings, it directly sealed off a hundred-meter-wide path ahead of him with frost.

Qin Siyang had no choice but to dodge backward.

'I need to come up with a plan fast. Domain only has about thirty seconds left.'

He shook his head.

This time, he was really in a bad spot.

He had activated Domain, but all he had done was run away.

And he still couldn't escape.

But the Ice Crystal Giant Moth didn't give him a chance to catch his breath.

It continued its relentless attacks from above, forcing him to keep dodging.

Just as Qin Siyang leaped away from one of the hurricane's attacks, a sudden chill ran down his back.

He immediately activated Domain again and jumped to the side.

BOOM—

The spot he had just landed on was suddenly pierced through by a massive tail stinger.

'How is this possible?'

The Corrosive Black Centipede, which had been paralyzed and unable to move, was standing up again.

'Wasn't it supposed to be paralyzed for one or two minutes?'

'How long has it been? My Domain isn't even over yet, and it's already up?'

'Did it even stay paralyzed for twenty seconds?'

Qin Siyang was both shocked and furious.

If he survived this, he would definitely go find whoever made this Short Bee Dagger and demand an explanation.

Failing at a critical moment, it was going to get him killed.

From the looks of it, the Short Bee Dagger was just as unreliable as the Red Silk Armor.

Of course, both were crafted by the same person.

A moth that summoned hurricanes was already too much for him to handle, and now the poisonous centipede had revived.

With two medium-sized gods blocking him from both the front and the back, Qin Siyang's escape route was completely cut off.

'What now?'

Suddenly, Qin Siyang had a thought, 'The Corrosive Black Centipede's weakness is ultra-low temperatures, right?'

'If I lure the Ice Crystal Giant Moth into attacking him, can I use it to take out the centipede?'

He immediately put the idea into action.

Instead of activating Domain, he sprinted at full speed, making it look like the Corrosive Black Centipede had a chance of catching up.

Sure enough, the Corrosive Black Centipede immediately spewed out a cloud of green toxic mist and chased after him.

Not far away, the Ice Crystal Giant Moth also flapped its wings, preparing to attack.

This was his chance.

Just as the Ice Crystal Giant Moth's wings flapped to unleash a hurricane, Qin Siyang used Domain again to jump away.

"Die, centipede!"

However, when he turned back triumphantly, he froze.

The Corrosive Black Centipede, which had been chasing him, had long stopped outside the Ice Crystal Giant Moth's attack range.

It hadn't stupidly kept pursuing him.

'What?'

'The Corrosive Black Centipede can actually see through my plan to use one god to kill another?'

However, the moment the Ice Crystal Giant Moth paused its attack, the Corrosive Black Centipede launched another strike at Qin Siyang.

Qin Siyang had no choice but to keep running.

But he had barely taken a few steps before another ultra-low-temperature hurricane from the Ice Crystal Giant Moth sealed off his path.

The two gods took turns attacking, gradually shrinking Qin Siyang's range of movement.

Two gods that had nothing to do with each other had actually coordinated to kill him.

Qin Siyang was completely dumbfounded.

He could understand that gods had intelligence.

He could also understand that medium-sized gods had greater intelligence than smaller ones.

But what he couldn't understand was how two completely different species of gods could cooperate so seamlessly to hunt down a mere sequence ability user like him.

Even though Qin Siyang had never taken formal courses on gods, he had plenty of hunting experience.

Gods usually appeared alone.

Even when they moved in groups, they were of the same species. Like the Iron-Helmed Rat Fleas or the Ghost-Faced Herons.

When different species of gods encountered each other, they usually fought or ignored each other and left.

But cooperating like this?

That had never happened before.

'What the hell is going on? This is ridiculous!'

The ground beneath his feet had been utterly devastated by the two medium-sized gods.

It was becoming harder and harder to find a place to land.

Just then, the ground suddenly cracked and began shaking violently.
