Chapter 1370 Azra Retaliates Slowly, the jet-black goo turned into humanoid beings before assuming battle stances as their bodies morphed, turning metallic immediately.
From their wriggly forms, they suddenly turned into metal puppets, similar to golems, confusing the spectators.
"He's not using his full power yet," Gegrafikan said. "Even Garguntil cannot control that power while in his human form. He has to take his demon beast form before unleashing the full extent of his abilities."
Krune sighed in relief in response, watching the battle calmly from that point onward.
The metal puppets began to appear one after another as their numbers continued to grow. Soon after, there were hundreds of them when Garguntil uttered, "Kill everyone!"
Immediately after that, a massacre ensued as the metal puppets were similar to the steel sphere he threw around before, tough and heavy even for immortals that cultivated their bodies.
"Kyak!"
"Damn it!"
"Run!"
The rest of the weaker cultivators were slaughtered one after another. There were some that retaliated, destroying the metal puppets one after another before eventually turning weak and eventually getting overwhelmed.
Had the immortals here been the regular Semi-God Realm cultivators, they would have been slaughtered without any hope of resistance.
But everyone here was a Mountain Sect member, cultivating all three cultivation paths. So, they were a lot stronger than regular cultivators, able to hold on for some time before being killed.
Though in the end, they were still killed. Despite everything, Garguntil was just on a whole other level, easily causing the deaths of hundreds of cultivators in a few minutes.
"Let's join hands against them!" a cultivator shouted before receiving support from those nearby, joining hands as they formed a resistance.
Slowly, they battled the steel puppets, using their abilities to create a synergistic advantage that amplified their strength further to the extent they were actually able to push back the steel puppets.
That was until a certain steel sphere crashed into the head of the one that had taken the initiative to join hands, killing him in one blow. Some laws were infused into the steel sphere, damaging his Spiritual Incarnation, preventing him from reforming his body.
He was the first to die as steel balls rained down one after another, killing the strongest among the groups that acted as the pillars around which everyone else gathered around. And with their deaths, the alliance fell apart as the steel puppets picked them off one after another.
The steel puppets also targeted the main characters of this arena like Relena, but when they neared him, they stopped moving immediately as all Godly Energy within them moved out, falling under his control.
As for those that approached Zettena, they were torn up like paper casually before being tossed around.
"Strange, why did their numbers suddenly reduce in one region?" Garguntil frowned, gazing in the respective direction to see the figure of Alfa smiling back in response, flashing her teeth.
In another corner, the steel puppets were blocked by a large sphere of water that began to dissolve their bodies the moment they came into contact. Seated within the sphere of water were two people, calmly observing everything that happened.
Of course, there was also Zettena's brother, that was dancing while sending the steel puppets flying with every hit. Sometimes, he went overboard and attempted to send them flying with a fart. Though, that failed as he was swarmed by them after that.
Then, there were a few Black Demons in one corner, fighting against the steel puppets while slowly enveloping their territory with miasma. The moment the steel puppets entered the miasma, they were corroded, contributing to fuel the miasma further.
"So, these are all the main players…" Garguntil nodded, frowning as he gazed at the figure of Krune's clone hovering beyond the arena, maintaining its condition. "There's also those that haven't shown themselves from the start."
Garguntil snapped his finger soon after, causing all the steel puppets to explode, sending fragments of their bodies everywhere, killing everyone else in the arena. They had only been focusing on spreading around the arena until now.
And once they did, Garguntil unleashed his second attack immediately, ridding thousands of cultivators from the battle.
"With this, only the main ones are left." Garguntil nodded, slowly getting up as the air around him began to cackle at the aura he began to emit while gazing at Zettena. "You asked for me to be serious. And I'll do just that now."
The moment he said his piece, his figure resembled a serpent as he lashed out at Zettena, sending her flying into the ice wall that acted as the Arena's border.
"Haha! Now we're talking!" Zettena laughed as she jumped out of the crater in the wall, grinning as she flexed her muscles, uninjured by the attack. "Though, attacks on that level cannot harm me."
"You sure?" Suddenly, Alfa smirked as Zettena's body began to rapidly freeze up, slowing her down before she slowly began to turn into a sculpture.
Zettena's brother abruptly arrived beside her, waving his hand as he vaporized the ice, frowning as he noticed his hand trembling from the cold, stating solemnly as he gazed at the trembling body of Zettena. "Don't underestimate any that remained behind."
"Yeah." Zettena nodded before glaring at Alfa. "Are sneak attacks what you love?"
"Of course!" Alfa laughed before motioning for her to look to her left.
Alarmed, Zettena gazed to her left, noticing the figure of Relena flying at uncontrollable speeds, slamming into her and her brother, turning into a massive block of ice immediately after.
Moreover, with every passing second, the ice began to grow in size, further trapping the trio firmly.
The change in the situation surprised everyone, causing them to stare in the direction Relena was sent flying from, noticing the figure of a smirking Azra there.
"Why did you allow him to enter the arena again after death?" Garguntil frowned, asking Krune's clone that was stationed nearby. "Isn't that going against the rules?"
"I've never allowed anyone into the arena ever since the match started," all the clones replied simultaneously, startling the participants.
That meant... Azra wasn't actually killed by Relena's attack?
"Took you long enough, dumbo." Alfa snorted.
"How did this happen?" Krune was confused, gazing at Feifei to ask.
"Why don't you guess?" Feifei stared at him, smiling gently. "After all, you have a complete understanding of the Monster Gecko race."
