The deeper you go into the jungle, the worse the environment becomes, and the number of underworld beasts also increases rapidly.
And every underworld beast looks fierce and unafraid of death, like a group of warriors defending their own territory.
The more violent the underworld beasts reacted, the more Ye Hong became certain that the mother beast was deep in the jungle.
Finally, after about an hour of marching, everyone stopped.
Looking ahead with a look of amazement.
What appeared before everyone's eyes was a huge lake deep in the jungle.
The lake was crowded with all kinds of underworld beasts inside and outside.
Among them are dozens of leader-level underworld beasts that are similar in size to giant toads.
However, these are not the key!
What concerned everyone the most was the huge creature in the center protected by all the underworld beasts!
It was a dark gray elephant crouching in the lake.
No, it should be a giant elephant!
Just squatting, he is twenty or thirty meters tall.
If he stood up, he should be able to reach about forty meters.
That's about a dozen floors high!
The broad and strong body looks like a dark gray castle standing on the lake.
Four tusks that towered into the sky were exposed from under the thick and long trunk, shining with a ferocious cold light.
There are underworld beasts crawling next to the giant elephant, licking the skin of the giant elephant fawningly.
But this is obviously a giant elephant with a bad temper.
It seemed that he felt that the underworld beast in a certain position made him uncomfortable, so he threw the elephant's trunk away.
"boom!"
The huge elephant trunk fell to the lakeside, like a mountain collapsing, killing all the beasts in an instant.
Immediately, the beasts around him were so frightened that they trembled.
"Ding! Trigger the grandmaster-level ability to see through and trigger the grandmaster-level effect [Seeing Fire]."
"Ding! The penetration is complete, the target type is: the underworld mother beast.
Target characteristics: 1. Rapid growth; 2. Devouring; 3. Dark shield; 4. Regeneration.
Target weakness: Insufficient data and cannot be analyzed temporarily. "
Sure enough, this giant elephant is the female beast of the underworld!
As long as we defeat it, we can end the chaos in Nanzhou!
In just a moment, Ye Hong made tactical arrangements.
"Pierre, lead the totem master to take care of the small ones, while Jackson and Istia will cover from the side.
Seniors, deal with that big one! "
Pierlu and others nodded quickly.
Looking at the densely packed underworld beasts on the lakeside and the giant mountain-like elephant, although they were very nervous, they believed in Ye Hong's strength and arrangements.
So he quickly reached the flank and launched a provocative attack on the underworld beasts.
Sure enough, like a hornet's nest, all the beasts of all sizes on the lakeside rioted and chased into the jungle.
Pierlu and others followed Ye Hong's instructions and used the dense jungle to fight guerrillas against these underworld beasts.
With Pierlu, a senior totem master, taking care of him, there should be no danger in a short time.
As for Qingmei Zhenren and others, they had already taken advantage of the time when the small beasts were led away, stepped into the lakeside, and faced the giant female elephant.
The giant elephant looked very angry and stood up from the lake, revealing its four wet legs like pillars of heaven.
"Moo-"
The elephant's trunk was raised high and it let out an angry roar.
Like a cow or a sheep, but much more powerful.
This sound like a moo seems to have the power to penetrate the clouds and crack rocks, causing waves to rise on the lake.
The giant elephant swung its trunk and struck hard at the four ancient warriors.
Of course, it is impossible for the four ancient warriors to stay where they are and dodge attacks flexibly.
After that, the giant elephant swung its trunk one after another, but none of them hit.
For four powerful ancient warriors, this elephant trunk undoubtedly seemed too bulky.
The giant elephant also seemed to realize that the methods used to punish the underworld beasts were useless against the four humans in front of him, and began to launch other attack methods.
When a creature is magnified several times, every part of its body can be used as a means of attack.
Trunk, legs, ears, tusks. The whole giant elephant ran back and forth on the lake, making the earth tremble.
Like a rampaging battle fortress.
Many surrounding jungles fell down one after another, and smoke and dust rose into the sky.
Ye Hong, who was observing the situation from a distance, suddenly noticed that the beasts that had been lured away were showing signs of returning.
He must have sensed that the female beast was under attack.
Ye Hong knew that he couldn't continue to maintain this deadlock, not to mention that now he didn't even have the characteristics of the female beast.
So he shouted loudly: "Seniors, don't hold back!"
The four ancient warriors nodded in unison, no longer contentedly fighting, but instead used their special skills.
Master Qingmei’s Shushan Kendo, Sima Zhengming’s Bagua Dao Zang, Ge Dan’s Cang Mo Tao, and Wu Chi’s Chaotic Tao.
It was like fireworks going off, instantly blasting holes in the giant elephant's body.
"Moo-"
The giant elephant moaned in pain, as if he had never experienced such pain.
A gray light emerged from outside its body.
A faint gray glow seemed to form a protective film outside the giant elephant's body.
The attacks of several ancient warriors landed on it, but they were all bounced away.
Ye Hong's heart moved slightly, knowing that this should be the characteristic of the [Underworld Shield]!
"Seniors, continue the attack!"
Ye Hong ordered coldly without hesitation.
The four ancient warriors were just about to stop, but after hearing Ye Hong's words, they fired another round of damage.
Although it was still deflected by several attacks, when the firepower became intensive to a certain extent, the gray protective film could no longer support it.
"Crack--"
Like the sound of breaking glass, the gray film fell off the giant elephant.
The attack landed on its skin again.
"Moo-"
The elephant whined again, mixed with anger and annoyance.
Suddenly, its trunk was raised high, but it was not aimed at a few ancient warriors.
Instead, he opened his huge mouth and sucked in the air!
On the ground, some underworld beasts that had rushed back to the lakeside were sucked into the mouth of the giant elephant.
Shortly after those underworld beasts were sucked in, the injuries on the giant elephant's skin were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye!
This should be the [devour] characteristic!
It turns out that this characteristic is to heal one's own injuries by devouring other underworld beasts.
Ye Hong couldn't help but feel lucky that he had asked Pierlu and the others to lure away the ordinary underworld beasts in the first place, otherwise the situation would have been even worse now.
But even so, the giant elephant's injury is almost recovering.
It is equivalent to the previous attacks of the ancient warriors being in vain.
And the broken Hades Shield also began to be reborn.
"Lead them further away!"
Ye Hong shouted into the distance, believing that Pierre and others should have received the order.
And he himself walked towards the lakeside, looking at the giant elephant expressionlessly.
By patiently observing from the sidelines, Ye Hong discovered that the female beast's attack methods were actually quite average.
What's more troublesome is its rough skin, thick flesh, defense and extremely abnormal recovery ability.
What Ye Hong had to do was not to give it a chance to defend and recover.
And the only way to do this is to kill this guy with one blow!
