American Exorcism Male God

Chapter 331 Bye-bye!

The Behemoth issued an angry roar, urgently wanting to capture the thief. The thief wasn't a petty burglar; they were an unparalleled great thief who had stolen its most precious treasure.

But it was powerless to do so, as it had to contend with the Annihilation Realm and could only watch as Xu Yi's scent drifted further away.

The scent of the Divine Spirit vanished, and if Xu Yi were to escape its sensory range, it would likely be difficult to find him again.

Clutching the katana named "Rage", Xu Yi slashed through the obstructing solid rock in front of him.

His brothers from the Ring of Destruction had created such a great opportunity for him, and he certainly could not afford to waste it.

With the map of Lighthouse Mountain in his mind, he had already planned an escape route for himself. After about half a minute of rushing, he fiercely cut through the thick wall in front of him.

The mountain rocks collapsed, and the sound of flowing water came from behind the hole.

Although Lighthouse Mountain had undergone massive changes, it still retained some of its previous constructions, and the sewer from the old Lighthouse Mountain lay just behind the hole.

Xu Yi jumped into the sewer and then sprinted with all his might.

While running, he took out a spray and doused his body vigorously.

It was not because he couldn't stand the foul stench of the sewer but to eliminate the scent from his body, the spray being some kind of Alchemical Potion.

The path ahead suddenly ended, but he had already escaped to the outskirts of Lighthouse Mountain, and with the katana "Rage", he pierced through the cement slab above him.

First, he carved a hole the size of a palm, letting Annabelle go out to scout for dangers, and after confirming it was safe, he carved a larger hole.

The exit turned out to be right in the center of a bush, he flipped himself over, hiding in the shadows of the bush, looking back at Lighthouse Mountain.

The "Black Iron Sphere" gradually dissipated; the Behemoth, unable to bear the burden, collapsed thunderously to the ground as if it was a toy crushed by a heavy object, with a huge crack appearing on its back.

The crack continued to spread, reaching towards all corners of its body, and the terrifying presence of the Behemoth began to wane.

"Did the Ring of Destruction actually manage to take down the Behemoth?"

Xu Yi was a little surprised, but he also wondered whether the destruction of its Soul Split truly had such a tremendous impact on the Behemoth?

Should he go back to seize an opportunity?

He pondered this question because the chance to devour the Origin of Sloth was too precious to miss.

"Forget it! Better be safe than sorry, especially since I've already obtained the most precious Divine Spirit."

After thinking for a moment, Xu Yi abandoned the tempting idea, scanning the entire battlefield. The purple barrier was still standing tall, keeping a dense crowd of monsters at bay.

His gaze swept over the throng of reanimated corpses on the battlefield, slightly startled.

The remaining animated corpses were much more numerous than he had anticipated, looking as if they were cursed with "Sloth", too lazy to muster any effort.

"Such terrible acting!" Xu Yi muttered to himself.

But there was nothing to be done; although West was pulling the strings behind these animated corpses, making them perform complex commands was asking too much of them.

Given West's intelligence, he might have already noticed the peculiar Domain of the Behemoth, perhaps even before Xu Yi did.

Xu Yi's eyes landed on one of the animated corpses.

It was a male corpse with bull horns on its head and a long scorpion tail extending from its back.

Though its appearance was bizarre, it didn't stand out amidst the host of demons and ghouls.

Xu Yi felt the presence of "Pride", Sin Remains, on that animated corpse.

Without a doubt, that was the Sin Remains pearl he had "gifted" West.

Could this be West's true body?

He immediately shook his head, as it seemed highly unlikely, having guessed as to West's Ability.

West could transfer his thoughts and soul to other animated corpses at will, so killing him was extremely difficult.

Ring of Destruction's choice to collaborate with West rather than controlling him was definitely related to his abilities.

Xu Yi had always had a question on his mind.

What exactly did West want with that tiny piece of Sin Remains he so desperately sought from Xu Yi, and what kind of attribute could he gain by merging with Sin Remains?

Xu Yi could still sense the Sin Remains, but attempting to control it had become exceedingly difficult, as West had placed some sort of taboo on it.

Moreover, using that tiny piece of Sin Remains to devour West's Origin of Pride was simply impossible.

Perhaps West had foreseen this, which is why he only asked for a small piece of Sin Remains.

The reanimated corpses suddenly became restless, surging towards the Behemoth whose breath was already weak. Cunning West prepared to desperately grab some attention.

But for some reason, Xu Yi's eyelids suddenly started twitching violently.

The next second, the Behemoth's massive body shattered like a broken mirror, its white skeletal remains turning to flying ash before even hitting the ground.

The Alchemical Machinery was heading towards the Behemoth, but they stopped abruptly in their tracks.

Although the Behemoth's huge body had dissipated, there was a white flesh cocoon in the air, gently trembling.

The flesh silkworm shuddered more and more violently until white, jade-like tentacles suddenly pierced through the cocoon, tearing it open violently, as the "White Jade Butterfly" emerged from its Breaking Cocoon stage.

Although it had the shape of a butterfly, its head still resembled that of the original Behemoth, only shrunk countless times.

Behind it were not wings, but writhing white tentacles, densely packed, with the only resemblance to a butterfly being its body.

An even more frenzied aura erupted forth, causing everyone present to feel a stinging pain like that of needle pricks.

"Phase Two Transformation!"

The term suddenly flashed through Xu Yi's mind, and he felt a bit relieved that he hadn't approached earlier.

But his heart began to race; he didn't know if the potion to erase his presence would work, and if the Behemoth still locked onto him, then that would be bad.

The Ring of Destruction's members all realized they had been wrong—the Behemoth was far from running on fumes. This was just what they had wishfully thought.

The next second, the purple light shield shattered, and the Ring of Destruction voluntarily disabled the Array.

Xu Yi had been waiting for this moment; he powered his way towards the outside, running frantically, while simultaneously turning his head to watch the Behemoth's movements.

His heart skipped a beat. Experience more tales on My Virtual Library Empire

The Behemoth was coming straight for him!

This was it, he hadn't been able to completely erase his presence after all.

Xu Yi looked around the battlefield and suddenly had an idea.

The Ring of Destruction's Alchemical Machinery scattered in all directions, a natural choice since all four major pieces of machinery were seriously damaged. If they fled in the same direction, it would be easy to be wiped out all at once.

The direction chosen by him and the Purple Sea Snake, coincidentally, was the same.

He suddenly had a plan. He dived into Dark Stealth, constantly watching the Purple Sea Snake behind him; if the enemy turned left, he turned left, if the enemy fled to the right, he also moved to the right.

The main idea was to keep the direction consistent.

Karen inside the Purple Sea Snake felt that he was terribly unlucky, out of a one-in-four chance, it had to be his turn.

The Behemoth was already close; there was no way he could escape the pursuit.

Rather than being caught and brutally tormented, it was better to go all out—at least that way he could probe the enemy's strength.

With his decision made, Karen turned around and charged directly towards the Phase Two Transformation Behemoth.

He had never considered that the Behemoth's target of pursuit was not him at all.

Xu Yi had been waiting for this moment; he knew the Ring of Destruction's members would not just sit and wait for death.

"See you later!" Xu Yi leaped into a tributary of the Charles River.

He had been considering what the Behemoth might have used to sense him. His breath had been sufficiently restrained, and he had the assistance of a shadow cloak and Dark Stealth.

After thinking it through, the most likely explanation was scent.

The state of filth on his body was, frankly, beyond words.

Xu Yi moved stealthily underwater, allowing the swift currents to wash away the grime from his body. After travelling a distance, he surfaced by the riverbank and took out a bunch of potions to eliminate the scent from his body and sprayed them vigorously.

He looked back in the direction of the Behemoth; the Purple Sea Snake was being torn apart like a child's toy into separate pieces, falling from the sky.

Xu Yi eyed the wreckage of the Eight-headed Sea Serpent with some envy.

He knew there would definitely be Holy Artifacts among the remains, but in such a moment, even if he had the courage of a bear and a leopard, he wouldn't dare go back to retrieve them.

"What a pity, I'm still one Mythical Artifact short of forging the Seven Deadly Sins."

Xu Yi felt deeply regretful.

But what relieved him was that the Behemoth finally stopped coming straight at him like it had been doing before and instead stood midair, roaring furiously.

He still didn't dare to completely relax; he continued to move stealthily through the river for a distance, applying the potion several times before finally climbing onto the bank and running towards Notting Hill.
