Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food Chapter 1182 - 523: The Giant Crocodile and the Jellyfish

Li Qinghua quickly responded, "Leave it to me."

While speaking, his body flickered and he instantly teleported right before the mutant jellyfish in the distance.

Once he departed, the teleportation portal under the crocodile mutant beast snapped shut immediately.

A thunderous crash echoed as its whole body plunged onto the water surface.

Bam!

Towering waves erupted skyward, like mountains crumbling down.

Liang Yuan swiftly gave chase and landed straight on the mutant giant crocodile's back.

The mutant giant crocodile remained dazed from the impact, unaware of the intruder on its back.

In the following moment, Liang Yuan pressed one hand against the mutant giant crocodile’s head, rapidly forming a Parasite Species with his Spiritual Power.

The Parasite Species burrowed rapidly into the mutant giant crocodile’s mind sea.

After completing this, Liang Yuan crossed his legs and sat atop the mutant giant crocodile’s head.

Only when the mutant giant crocodile regained awareness and sensed someone on its head did fury explode within it.

Even while submerged in water, it abruptly performed a death roll to shake Liang Yuan off.

Yet Liang Yuan levitated into the sky, leaving its struggles futile.

With a bam, enormous waves churned violently.

The mutant giant crocodile lifted its head toward the airborne Liang Yuan, its face twisted in rage.

Next, its tail whipped the water, propelling it high into the air for a savage bite at Liang Yuan.

Its elongated crocodile jaws resembled a brutal vise, clamping down with ferocity.

Liang Yuan neither evaded nor retreated, his eyes steady as he allowed the bite.

Bam!

The crocodile’s jaws finally seized Liang Yuan, but instantly, a howl of pain escaped it.

Its mouth, gripping Liang Yuan, failed utterly to close.

Liang Yuan gripped its upper fangs with one hand while his foot pressed down on the rock-hard lower jaw.

In this manner, with a single hand propping it up, his immense power kept the mutant giant crocodile’s mouth pried open, preventing any bite or crunch.

Liang Yuan peered into the gaping maw, assaulted by a foul stench that was utterly revolting.

His free hand balled into a fist, smashing heavily into one of its teeth.

Boom!

A ferocious blast detonated, shattering that tooth in an explosion.

Blood gushed instantly from the tooth’s root!

Overwhelmed by excruciating pain, the mutant giant crocodile thrashed its head wildly, performing endless death rolls amid the floodwaters.

Unable to vocalize, its tormented expression revealed its suffering clearly.

Liang Yuan booted the shattered tooth root away, sending it flying through the gap.

He suspended himself in mid-air, staring down at the mutant giant crocodile, and declared, "Among strength-type mutant beasts, you’re not particularly powerful."

"From now on, you follow me."

As he commanded, he flicked his hand, summoning frost that coalesced behind him. In a flash, a colossal Ice Crystal Chain whipped forth.

Crash!

The chain coiled around the mutant giant crocodile’s neck, encasing it in ice that made it tremble violently, its slit pupils brimming with terror.

Liang Yuan positioned himself on its back, the Ice Crystal Chain binding it like reins on a chariot, surging forward through the waters.

He tugged the chain, directing it toward Li Qinghua locked in fierce combat, and bellowed, "Go help out!"

The mutant giant crocodile showed no hint of defiance, lashing its tail to swim speedily in that direction.

Meanwhile, Li Qinghua clashed intensely with the mutant jellyfish.

Astonishingly, Li Qinghua couldn’t overpower the mutant jellyfish!

The mutant jellyfish glowed with a blue aura, its form rendered fully transparent.

Li Qinghua unleashed teleportation gate techniques repeatedly, aiming to ensnare it in an endless spatial loop.

But as a Water Attribute Mutant Beast, the mutant jellyfish commanded water and could morph its body into a surging torrent to slip away!

Each time Li Qinghua deployed a teleportation gate, it dissolved into a massive wave and evaded outright.

When Li Qinghua unleashed the Spatial Rift Slash once more.

The mutant jellyfish transformed anew into a Water Elementalized colossal wave; the Spatial Rift Slash cut through the surge but struck no solid body.

Soon after, it reformed seamlessly within the wave.

Li Qinghua’s barrage of assaults met the same fate, all neutralized this way.

Its own strikes proved equally bizarre.

Blue light flared around it as it shaped into a water cannon, firing abruptly from overhead.

The crushing water pressure tore through the atmosphere with a deafening roar.

Li Qinghua hastily conjured a Space Bubble for protection.

Yet the Space Bubble’s barrier couldn’t endure the water cannon’s force.

With a boom, it burst apart.

Li Qinghua urgently activated a teleportation channel to dodge away.

Or he could simply create a teleportation passage, hurl the water cannon inside it, then open up another passage, letting the water cannon emerge from there with a changed trajectory, slamming straight into the mutant jellyfish!

This move obviously employed spatial passages too, redirecting the water cannon's assault.

It perfectly turned the enemy's own tactics right back against them.

Blue light flared across the mutant jellyfish's form, swiftly erecting a see-through water Barrier.

The water cannon smashed into the barrier, triggering an enormous bang right away.

Water waves burst outward, surging upward over a hundred feet high.

The colossal body got hurled across the water surface, flattening waves over a vast stretch in its path.

From mid-air, Li Qinghua yelled, "Mr. Liang, this mutant jellyfish is really tricky!"

"Its Water Elementalization blocks my space Skills completely."

Watching this unfold, Liang Yuan fell into thought.

Spatial skills might be mighty, yet they're far from unbeatable.

Elementalization lets physical forms shift into intangible states, and it managed to fend off the Spatial Rift Slash, catching Liang Yuan off guard a bit.

Yet right away, he spotted the irregularity.

Elementalization by itself wouldn't suffice for that.

Post-elementalization, while it dodges physical strikes, the body persists in a fundamental way.

That persistence manifests as Spiritual Power blended seamlessly with elements.

In theory, Li Qinghua’s Spatial Rift Slash should tear through the elemental form.

It's like sucking a chunk of the elemental body into the spatial rift.

Should the elemental body shatter without reforming, it spells fatal harm for elementalization foes.

Then what allowed this mutant jellyfish to pull it off?

Liang Yuan pondered briefly and grasped the truth at once.

"Beyond Elemental Incarnation, it possesses elemental escape capabilities."

"Likely Water Escape—post-elementalization, it slips away instantly to any watery spot."

"Li Qinghua’s Spatial Rift Slash failed because it never actually struck the target!"

"Why doesn't Li Qinghua track its escape path and yank it back via space portal?"

This puzzle flashed in Liang Yuan’s mind, leading to instant clarity.

"Spiritual Power shortage!"

Comprehension hit him without delay.

As a Space-type Superpower User, Li Qinghua’s core stat has to be Spiritual Power.

Having freshly advanced past Genetic Species, his Spiritual Power remains quite limited.

This mutant jellyfish, a Water Attribute Mutant Beast, shares Spiritual Power as its primary attribute.

The key reason Li Qinghua can’t pinpoint the escape route stems from his inferior Spiritual Power compared to the jellyfish!

Through Liang Yuan’s senses, the instant the mutant jellyfish triggered Water Elementalization, it fled via Water Escape.

He perceived the foe’s position with perfect clarity.

His own Spiritual Power vastly outstrips the mutant jellyfish’s.

Boom!

Right then, yet another blast rang out.

The mutant jellyfish fully shifted to Water Elementalization, plunging into the depths.

Explosions boomed, waves splashed wildly, water flying all over.

Li Qinghua utterly lost sight of the mutant jellyfish.

Staying hyper-vigilant, he promptly summoned a Space Bubble around himself to thwart any sneak attacks.

Liang Yuan shot a icy glance, curling his lips in a smirk.

"Seeking death!"

His chain whipped out, prompting the mutant giant crocodile below to rear up, chomping down on the oncoming giant wave.

Bam!

The mutant giant crocodile shattered the giant wave, after which currents converged, reshaping into the massive mutant jellyfish!

Rather than targeting Li Qinghua, this beast lunged toward the nearing Liang Yuan!

At that instant, it dissolved into water elements, concealed within the giant wave, only for Liang Yuan to detect it immediately.

As the mutant giant crocodile burst the waves apart, the jellyfish’s huge frame surfaced, firing off a water cannon shot!

Boom!

The shot rocketed toward the mutant giant crocodile, which failed to dodge, instead clawing at the incoming water cannon.

A thunderous detonation followed instantly, sending the mutant giant crocodile flipping repeatedly across the water.

A broad patch of bruising showed on its underbelly.

This jellyfish’s water cannon packed serious punch!

Liang Yuan rose into the air at once, slipping on his Spiritual Ability Glasses to target the mutant jellyfish.

Readings on the Spiritual Ability Glasses jumped around before stabilizing at 73 points!

A mutant beast possessing a primary attribute of 73 points!

Little wonder Li Qinghua suffered defeat against it, and even the mutant giant crocodile proved unable to overpower this creature.

Liang Yuan burst into laughter.

"Perfect timing! Yangshan is in need of training a naval fleet; you've arrived just right, beast."

Boom!

Yet another water cannon blast rocketed straight at Liang Yuan.

With a soft chuckle, Liang Yuan unleashed a mighty punch!

Boom!

Terrifying Power of Frost exploded forth from his fist.

In that moment, the air itself hardened, chunks of ice materialized everywhere, and ambient moisture crystallized into swirling snowflakes.

The mid-flight water projectile froze solid into an ice orb instantly!

Its core structure transformed utterly, robbed of any explosive potential.

Liang Yuan followed up with a vigorous kick!

Boom!

The ice orb shot right back at once!

Upon witnessing this, the mutant jellyfish frantically lashed out its tentacles, shifting into water element form to dodge and flee.

Liang Yuan predicted its escape route ahead of time.

His Ice Star Chain whipped out with force!

Rattle!

The chain tore through empty space, slamming into the flood's massive wave.

Crunch, crunch, crunch~

The watery surge froze in a blink, the entire flood morphing directly into solid ice!

Within those waves, the enormous jellyfish's body came to a halt, fully exposed and trapped in the ice block!

Liang Yuan streaked forward in a blaze of fire, arriving instantly before the frozen beast.

Out came his punch!

Bang! A deafening blast resounded as the ice cracked apart.

Liang Yuan's fist pierced the icy barrier, smashing directly into the mutant jellyfish!

A jelly-like consistency suddenly yielded under his strike.

The mutant jellyfish's body shuddered violently; locked in ice, it couldn't activate Water Elementalization and bore the full brunt of Liang Yuan's devastating punch.

Stars burst across its vision at once, its mind reeling, nearly shattering from the impact.

Liang Yuan seized the opening, injecting a Parasite Species into its sea of consciousness.

And with that, the clash ended.

Liang Yuan reappeared, perched atop the jellyfish now resembling an ice sculpture.

As the Parasite Species embedded itself deeply, granting him total control over its fate, Liang Yuan let out a faint chuckle.

Li Qinghua reached the scene by then, staring in awe at the spectacle and unable to contain his shock.

"Awesome!" Words escaped him; he could only blurt out those two.

Liang Yuan grinned and replied, "These two Genetic Mutation Beasts, I’ve already prepared something for them; I’ll take them to Yangshan for training later."

Li Qinghua nodded. "I’m relieved with your involvement."

He glanced toward the sea of flames, adding, "It’s been so long now, and no other Genetic Mutation Beasts have shown up—looks like none in this area."

Liang Yuan gave a slight nod. "Let’s check elsewhere."

Li Qinghua nodded right away too, and the trio swiftly left the zone, resuming their hunt for more Genetic Mutation Beasts.
