Shadows of the Deep Space Chapter 1749 - 549: Counterattack in Desperation (Part 3)

Su Ming was momentarily taken aback; Irene Liss displayed exceptional gun skill, each shot precisely aimed at vital points.

Great caution was necessary, as he continuously maneuvered Ilyas to evade while searching for an opening to strike Irene Liss with the Dragon Base Spear.

The two engaged in a fierce exchange of blows amidst the vast expanse of the starry sky.

A peculiar glint flashed in Irene Liss’s cold eyes; she had not anticipated Su Ming's gun skill to surpass her own.

Although it appeared as though she held the upper hand on the surface, it was solely due to a disparity in power. In truth, her entire combat technique had been deciphered.

In a swift motion, Irene Liss unleashed her Kais biological reaction, launching a powerful shot that sent Su Ming reeling back.

Following this, she raised her left hand towards him.

Swish, swish!

Razor-sharp ice spines, crackling with lightning, descended upon Su Ming like an ferocious onslaught.

"Watch out!"

Ilyas issued a warning to Su Ming.

Su Ming's demeanor turned grave, and his spiritual power erupted. Within Irene Liss, neural pathways ignited, her biological reaction surged dramatically, and a menacing black thunderstorm spread forth from her entire form.

The incoming ice spines were utterly annihilated.

At that precise moment, Irene Liss transformed into a blinding streak of light, piercing directly through the ebony thunderstorm, her Meat Tumor Long Spear aimed squarely at Su Ming.

Su Ming promptly activated his Energy Barrier!

Crack!

The Energy Barrier was instantly breached and obliterated.

Nevertheless, it granted Su Ming the precious moments needed to react. He sidestepped to evade the incoming spear, simultaneously raising his Dragon Base Spear and launching a fierce thrust towards Irene Liss’s AT Barrier Clothing.

Irene Liss was immediately repelled, her Stance Outer Garment rippling violently.

At this juncture, Irene Liss's frigid gaze was alight with murderous intent, her Kais biological reaction surged, and a spectral apparition detached itself from her back. Simultaneously, her forward momentum coalesced into a beam of light, charging at Su Ming with unbridled ferocity.

Then, Su Ming fearlessly advanced, his eyes locked onto his adversary. With a sudden twist of the Dragon Base Spear, he deftly circumvented the incoming weapon to strike at Irene Liss.

Crack!

Irene Liss disintegrated instantaneously, resembling a sculpture of ice, while ice shards filled the sky, enveloping Ilyas.

At this moment, Irene Liss's true form, positioned behind the phantom, exerted her might, raising her spear for a devastating strike against Su Ming.

"Damn it!"

Just as Su Ming prepared to evade, he discovered that the Mecha seemed to have been ensnared, its movements becoming agonizingly slow. He could only muster the strength to raise the Dragon Base Spear in his hand for defense.

Bang!

Su Ming was directly impacted and flung backward, transforming into a streak of light that smashed through floating meteors and the debris of fortresses in the cosmic void, finally halting his trajectory with considerable effort.

"Ilyas, how can the power disparity between you and your sister be so immense?"

Su Ming gasped for air, his expression one of profound shock, as if he had witnessed a specter.

"My sister possesses superior innate talent compared to me. Furthermore, she has merged with special crystals, enabling a qualitative leap in her strength. As for myself, I have been confined for over a century, hence the considerable difference is understandable,"

Ilyas explained to Su Ming.

Meanwhile, Irene Liss continued her rapid assault on Su Ming.

"We must retreat!"

Su Ming made a decisive resolution.

"Understood!"

Ilyas’s agreement was immediate.

Su Ming then directed Ilyas to execute a Light Speed Fold Flash, vanishing instantly and reappearing in the distant expanse of the starry sky.

Just as he was about to continue his escape, he abruptly stopped.

To his surprise, Irene Liss executed a Space Jump, materializing out of thin air directly in front of Su Ming. She slowly turned, her voice chillingly devoid of emotion, and spoke.

"Attempting to flee? Do you believe you can escape?"

Su Ming's countenance instantly hardened, his spirit ablaze. He abruptly commanded Ilyas to initiate another Light Speed Fold Flash, disappearing once more, only to reappear in a remote sector of the cosmos. Subsequently, he repeatedly executed the Light Speed Fold Flash to widen the gap, and finally performed a Space Jump, vanishing into the void, reappearing in an even more distant part of the starscape.

Su Ming drew a deep breath. Such an extensive evasion should have been sufficient to lose their pursuers.

However, at that very moment, in the starry sky ahead, azure arcs of lightning suddenly flickered, followed by a rift tearing through the cosmic expanse. Irene Liss emerged from the Subspace.

The expressions of both Su Ming and Irene Liss shifted dramatically. They stared at Irene Liss as if confronting a formidable adversary; neither had anticipated her ability to traverse such an immense distance.

"Impressive evasive maneuvers, but ultimately futile. I informed you that escape was impossible!"

Gazing intently at Su Ming, Irene Liss stated coldly.

Without any further exchange with Irene Liss, Su Ming swiftly guided Ilyas into a terrifying black stream of light, changing their course to flee in an alternate direction.

"Insolent!"

Witnessing Su Ming's refusal to surrender, Irene Liss relentlessly pursued him.

A dynamic chase ensued, with a blue and a black stream of light streaking across the vast expanse of the starry sky at breakneck speed.

Irene Liss amassed formidable energy, unleashing beams of icy blue light, saturated with destructive force, towards Su Ming.

Su Ming pushed Ilyas beyond its limits, skillfully evading the relentless barrage of attacks.

Each beam narrowly missed Ilyas, instead obliterating passing meteorites.

Boom~

One after another, the meteorites erupted in fiery explosions.

Su Ming's concentration was honed to its absolute peak; a direct hit, even if survivable, would mean grievous injury.

Observing her inability to strike Su Ming, a chilling glint appeared in Irene Liss’s eyes. She initiated a Space Jump, vanishing from sight only to reappear instantaneously behind Ilyas.

An instinctual premonition of grave peril struck Su Ming, compelling him to immediately direct Ilyas to pivot around.

At this critical juncture, Irene Liss's entire form shimmered with crackling blue lightning arcs. She brandished the Meat Tumor Long Spear, delivering a ferocious strike aimed at Su Ming.

Su Ming instinctively raised the Dragon Base Spear in his grasp to parry the blow!

Ka!

Ilyas bore the brunt of the ferocious impact, its entire Mecha propelled violently outwards. It plummeted towards a desolate standard planet like a fiery meteor, crashing onto the crimson terrain.

Boom!

The impact cratered the ground, as if an asteroid had collided with the planet, forming a vast chasm spanning a hundred kilometers in diameter.
