Chapter 525: Chapter 249: Killing the Yong’an River Mother Empress, Shen Jie Tier 3 (2)

Before the threat of death became imminent, its survival instinct drove it to flee rather than stay and fight to the death.

This was also part of Lin Feng’s deliberate control over the pace of the attack. He slowed down, allowing Shen Jie to catch up while he first dealt with the Tier Two Tiger Spine Zergs around them.

By not launching a brazen, all-out assault from the start, he made the Mother Empress believe it still had a chance to escape, causing it to lower its guard.

The moment he and Shen Jie were ready, the Reproductive Armor Mecha instantly erupted with the Attribute Power of a Tier Three Middle Stage!

It became a black blur!

Before the Mother Empress, having already crawled to the exit, could even react, the dual strike of the Hunter Emperor’s Chainsaw Sword and the Ion Laser Cannon appeared in a flash, landing on the connection point on its back.

This directly severed the flesh-and-blood connection between the Mother Empress’s main body and the incubating Nest behind it, robbing it of the chance to quickly activate its Divine Domain Descent.

Meanwhile, Shen Jie, who was forcefully resisting the Spiritual Attack, leaped into the air under the enhancement of his Slaughter Realm and landed squarely on the Mother Empress’s broad neck.

The Bone Blades that grew from his hands connected to two 1.5-meter-long Golden Plate Bone Sabers, which he brought down viciously on the Mother Empress’s neck.

They collided with the half-meter-thick Neck Guard bone buried within its flesh, producing a piercing, grinding shriek.

Thanks to the incredible sharpness of the Plate Bone Sabers and the nearly two hundred tons of terrifying Power Shen Jie wielded in his Assimilation State and amplified by his Mental Realm, the blades sliced through the bone as if it were mud, cleaving a four-to-five-centimeter-deep gash into the Neck Guard!

’If once isn’t enough, I’ll do it again!’

Shen Jie raised the Long Sabers in his hands and hacked down a dozen more times.

Finally sensing the mortal danger, the Mother Empress reacted, hastily mobilizing all its Spiritual Power to launch an all-out assault on the enemy behind its brain.

At the same time, it had secretly begun to summon its Divine Domain Descent, planning to make a last, desperate stand—if it was going to die, it would take a few Human Awakeners down with it.

A powerful aura that didn’t belong to the Mother Empress emanated from its brain. A terrifying pressure from the Divine Realm, carrying with it dreadful Genetic Radiation, enveloped the Hive.

Yet, at this most perilous moment...

The Hunter Emperor’s Chainsaw Sword, no longer behind the Mother Empress, was now held firmly by the Reproductive Armor Mecha. It instantly slashed across the neck of the beast as it tilted its head back to roar!

The piercing roar, accompanied by the radiation from the Divine Realm...

...was cut short.

The thick neck, which the Mother Empress had raised high and was thrashing from side to side to throw off Shen Jie, was severed by the single blow.

The Hunting Emperor’s Sword’s special attribute inflicted a one-second stun. The cross-section of the severed neck revealed not only the Mother Empress’s trachea and esophagus but also the myriad blood vessels that supplied its brain and the nervous system connecting it to the rest of its body.

As the Hunter Emperor’s Chainsaw Sword pulled away from the wound, a torrent of blood and air bubbles sprayed out.

The Mother Empress’s head was disconnected from its enormous body.

But Lin Feng didn’t stop there. He immediately swung the Hunter Emperor’s Chainsaw Sword again, swiftly landing a second blow on the neck from an angle!

The Mother Empress’s healing ability was incredibly powerful. If the wound wasn’t completely mangled, it could recover in an instant. This was one of the reasons High-tier Life Forms were so difficult to kill.

As the second slash landed, a huge chunk of flesh was torn away from the Mother Empress’s neck.

A section more than half a meter long was gone from its neck.

Now, no matter how formidable its healing abilities were, it was impossible for it to regenerate and copy tons of flesh, organs, and nervous tissue in such a short time.

Aside from the mutated Neck Guard bone still attached to its spine, the Mother Empress had been successfully decapitated.

Without nutrients from its body, the Spirit within the Mother Empress’s brain that was forcing the Divine Domain Descent quickly dissipated, its energy supply cut off.

Along with it went the rampant Spiritual Attack that had been assaulting Shen Jie.

Shen Jie continued to swing his arms. With his two, now severely worn, Golden Plate Bone Sabers, he used their shattered edges to continuously attack the Neck Guard at the back of the Mother Empress’s neck.

Three seconds and thirty strikes later, Shen Jie finally severed the Mother Empress’s fifty-centimeter-thick Neck Guard.

Then, with a loud CRACK, the massive, villa-sized head crashed to the ground, creating a thirty-meter-wide crater.

As the Mother Empress fell, the nearby Swarm and all the Zerg Race within its territory were disconnected from their queen. Leaderless, they fell into a state of aimless confusion.

Shen Jie was now drenched in blood from head to toe. The Face Armor that had grown over his features enveloped his eyes, leaving only a narrow slit glowing with red light.

But the Mother Empress was not completely dead.

Even with only its head remaining, it could maintain biological activity for a long time; its Life Force had not yet reached zero.

If its head were reattached to its body now, it could even use its formidable healing ability and Infinite Reproduction Realm to reconnect and resurrect itself.

Unfortunately for it, those present would not give it that chance.

Shen Jie shook the bits of flesh and gore from his body and walked over to the Mother Empress’s head. Following the Reproductive Armor Mecha’s instructions, he stepped onto its mass of compound eyes.

His face was expressionless as he looked at the Mother Empress’s compound eyes, which now revealed a look of terror and pleading. He raised his two-meter-long blades and brought them down hard on the Mother Empress’s head in a crisscross pattern.

The blades sliced through layers of skin and mangled flesh, shattered the inner skull, and finally cleaved through the Mother Empress’s brain tissue.

The Level 33 Yong’an River Mother Empress, forty minutes after Lin Feng and the others launched their decapitation strike...

Died filled with resentment!

With the beheading complete, Shen Jie collapsed inside the Mother Empress’s head—now a thick soup of shredded flesh—and briefly lost consciousness.

His body, however, acted on its own. The cells on his skin began to greedily absorb the fresh marrow fluid, simultaneously repairing his body and promoting their own evolution to a higher Level.
