Chapter 10 - Chapter 10 The key to breaking the deadlock

Whoosh!

Amidst the sound of air being torn, a grayish-white streak of light shot from the left side of the migrating group, rapidly flying towards the right.

Flying on a bone shield, Ender looked towards the right side of the migrating group, "I hope I'm wrong."

A few seconds later, he arrived.

Looking around, he saw battle groups everywhere, with the warriors of the migrating group clashing against Demon Beasts.

However, he did not see any trace of a Planetary Level Demon Beast.

Generally speaking, Planetary Level Demon Beasts are easy to identify, as their size is several times that of their kin, making them recognizable at a glance.

Boom!

Amidst a violent sound, dirt and grass clippings splattered.

Ender looked over and saw a grayish-brown Demon Beast, resembling an earthworm, with a diameter of over ten meters, emerging from the ground with its maw wide open, biting at a figure.

The figure was very fast and was not bitten by the Demon Beast, though it was a close call.

The next moment, the Demon Beast spat out a mass of black-gray unknown substance from its mouth, directly engulfing the figure.

The black-gray unknown substance enveloped the figure and carried it flying into the distance, while the Demon Beast burrowed back into the ground.

Seeing this, Ender manipulated the bone shield to chase after the flying black-gray unknown substance.

"Grayish-brown like an earthworm, adept at burrowing underground, and such a massive size, it should be a Planetary Level Burrowing Beast!"

Recognizing the grayish-brown Demon Beast as a Burrowing Beast, the sixteen bone spike guarding Ender shot out one after another, targeting the bulging grass, which was the Planetary Level Burrowing Beast's underground burrowing path!

The bone spike were extremely fast, arriving in the blink of an eye.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

Boom, boom, boom…

Each bone spike's, carrying the sound of tearing air, continuously slammed into the grass, creating a series of explosions!

Each bone spike's penetrated the ground as easily as a red-hot iron skewer into butter, forcefully striking the Burrowing Beast's massive body.

The bone spike, manipulated by Spiritual Force more than ten times stronger than an Apprentice Level 9, had an attack power comparable to a Planetary Level!

The powerful impact they brought firmly suppressed the Burrowing Beast in the mud, making it difficult to move or burrow for a time.

However, the Burrowing Beast's grayish-brown, wrinkled skin was extremely tough!

bone spike made from the teeth of a Planetary Level Demon Beast could not pierce it, and the dents created on its wrinkled skin by the impacts recovered in an instant.

After the attack, the bone spike burrowed back into the ground, then turned and struck down again.

Boom, boom, boom…

Explosions continued, dirt and grass clippings splattered everywhere, and a bit of smoke rose, obscuring the view.

The attack lasted for ten seconds before Ender stopped, coldly observing the ground, which was full of countless pits in the smoke.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

The sixteen bone spike returned to his side, surrounding him like loyal guards.

Roar!

Two seconds later, the Planetary Level Burrowing Beast emerged from another spot, opening its mouth and letting out an angry roar!

It was extremely furious!

The continuous attacks just now had suppressed it, leaving it in a sorry state where it could only take hits.

Although the previous attacks didn't cause much damage to it, they hurt a lot!

Seeing that the Planetary Level Burrowing Beast was still full of vigor, Ender shook his head slightly, "Indeed, it's too difficult to deal with Planetary Level Demon Beasts without a Spirit Weapon. I can temporarily suppress it, but I can't kill it!"

He didn't have many options for the current situation and could only call for help.

Tapping his right hand on his wrist to open his communicator, he sent out the pre-set distress signal along with his current location.

"The distress call has been sent. What I need to do now is continue to suppress that Planetary Level Burrowing Beast. If I can drive it away, that would be even better!"

Ender narrowed his eyes, contemplating, "Burrowing Beasts have degenerated vision and rely on hearing and perception to find prey and enemies. As long as I stay still in the air, it should be difficult for it to find me."

Thinking of this, he moved his will, and the sixteen bone spike scattered, shooting towards the Burrowing Beast from various directions, some fast, some slow.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

The Burrowing Beast's body moved slightly, as if sensing the direction of the incoming attacks, but due to the overwhelming number, it was difficult to distinguish, and since being hit wouldn't cause much harm, it didn't dodge.

Thump, thump, thump…

Each bone spike's struck the Burrowing Beast's body, emitting dull thuds.

Although they caused the Burrowing Beast's boneless body to bend and sway, the damage inflicted was truly limited.

In the distance, a mass of black-gray unknown substance continuously wriggled, and a person crawled out of it, using both hands and feet.

"Ptooey! Ptooey!"

After crawling out of the black-gray unknown substance, Axe spat several times to clear the foul-smelling substance from his mouth.

After taking a few breaths of fresh air, he looked down at his empty right hand and quickly burrowed back into the black-gray unknown substance to retrieve his ancestral spear.

When struck by the unknown substance spat out by the Burrowing Beast, Axe thought he was dead and would be swallowed whole.

But unexpectedly, after more than ten seconds, he didn't feel his position move, so he boldly crawled out.

Looking into the distance, he was stunned by what he saw!

"This! This! This!"

"An Apprentice Level 9 Spiritual Master can suppress a Planetary Level Demon Beast? This is too insane!"

"He doesn't even have a Spirit Weapon yet! How can he suppress it?"

"Is he too strong? Or am I too weak?"

Axe's worldview was greatly impacted. When did an Apprentice Level 9 become so powerful?

Upon closer observation, he noticed a clue, and his worldview recovered, but he also began to worry.

"Ender's bone spike are very sharp, but they can't pierce the Burrowing Beast's tough skin, and even if they could, they would be restricted by the Burrowing Beast's muscles, unable to cause much damage."

"At most, it can only achieve temporary suppression, unable to severely injure or kill the Burrowing Beast."

"More importantly, I don't know how long his Spiritual Force can last!"

Axe was thinking, but for a moment, he couldn't think of any way to help.

On the other side, Ender, who was in the air, was also contemplating, and the attack frequency of his bone spike had significantly decreased.

He had to change the current situation!

Because his Spiritual Force was already less than one-third, this Spiritual Force could not sustain him in battle for a long time, and whether he could hold out until the Planetary Level Scout arrived for rescue was also a question mark.

Looking around, Ender's gaze swept over the person who had previously been engulfed by the black-gray unknown substance spat out by the Burrowing Beast, who was holding a long spear.

"Long spear!"

Ender's eyes lit up.

If he remembered correctly, among the Apprentice Level 9 members of the migrating group, only Axe used a long spear.

Manipulating the bone shield to fly towards Axe, his bone spike's attacks stopped, allowing the Burrowing Beast to temporarily recover.

Ender shouted loudly, "Axe! The long spear!"

The Burrowing Beast recovered and, hearing the shout, immediately burrowed into the ground, moving towards the direction of the sound.

Meanwhile, Axe saw Ender flying towards him, shouting something, and was momentarily confused.

It wasn't until he heard "long spear" that he suddenly realized, "Right! The long spear!"

His long spear was an ancestral heirloom, forged from fragments of weapons used by Stellar Rank powerhouses. Dealing with a Planetary Level Demon Beast would be a piece of cake.

Understanding Ender's meaning, he directly threw out the ancestral long spear in his hand.

Ender caught the long spear with his Spiritual Force, and looking back, he saw the bulging ground moving towards his direction.

"Go!"

He first shouted loudly, then shot four bone spike at the ground.

Axe knew his own strength, and after throwing the long spear, he immediately took off running.

Boom, boom…

The bone spike burrowed underground, striking the Burrowing Beast's body, causing its movement to slow down for a moment.

But then, it recovered, emerged from the ground with its maw wide open, and lunged at Ender in the air.

However, Ender had already rapidly increased his altitude as soon as the bone spike were fired.

Even if the Burrowing Beast's lunge was fast, it was still twenty to thirty meters away from him.

Looking at the maw that could easily swallow ten of himself, Ender's gaze was icy cold.

"Die for me!"
