Monarch Of Time

Chapter 578: Hunting the Poison-tongued Toad

Perhaps if the \'Poison-tongued Toad\' was a middle rank 5 magic beast that focused on mental attacks, like the rank 5 \'Spellsinger bird\' that had attacked Shun Long and Liu Mei in the past, then it was possible for its mental attacks to pose some trouble to the current Shun Long, but with just the mental effect that its poison had on the water of the pond, it was simply impossible for the toad\'s \'attack\' to succeed.

Shun Long knew that the \'Poison-tongued Toad\' wasn\'t directly attacking him just now, but that this was the way that it hunted its prey.

Any magic beast that entered the pond would immediately be affected by both its mental attack and the poison in the pond\'s waters, before the toad appeared and attacked as well.

This terrifying killer combo could take care of even other unsuspecting middle rank 5 magic beasts without too much trouble!

A few moments later, Shun Long entered the purple waters, when he suddenly felt the alluring effect that the water had in his mind become even more intense.

However, he didn\'t seem to mind as he headed deeper inside the pond! His spiritual sea churned the moment that he entered the pond, resisting the second wave of this mental attack almost effortlessly.

At the same time, Shun Long could feel the poison that had seeped inside the water that was now trying to slowly corrode his body, both from the inside as well as the outside.

His \'Monarch\'s Eternal body\' however was strong enough to resist the effects of the poison from the \'Poison-tongued Toad\', as most of the poison couldn\'t even break past his skin and entered his body. As for the tiny amounts of poison that successfully entered his body, that was equally futile as well, since Shun Long\'s top-grade rank 5 \'anti-toxin\' pill could even resist the poison from peak rank 5 magic beasts without any problems!

Even without consuming a top-grade rank 5 \'anti-toxin\' pill, Shun Long still believed that his \'Monarch\'s Eternal body\' was strong enough to completely dispel the poison from the toad as well.

Suddenly, Shun Long\'s golden eyes lit up with a bright blue light, before another scene appeared in his mind.

With a smile on his face, Shun Long unhurriedly dodged to the side, only to see a long, dark purple tongue appearing in the spot where he was standing a moment ago.

The tongue had shot forward with extreme speed and so much power, that it could probably kill an early rank 5 magic beast in one hit, and yet, after failing to hit Shun Long, it retracted back at the speed of light.

Although he couldn\'t clearly see the dark purple tongue that had mixed with the purple waters almost seamlessly, Shun Long knew that this was the tongue of the \'Poison-tongued Toad\'.

Shun Long knew that the poison that covered the Toad\'s tongue was strong enough to kill other middle rank 5 magic beasts as well, in less than a minute after it affected them.

Taking out the pitch-black, star-rank sword from the \'Stone of Time\', he held it in front of him with his right hand as he headed deeper inside the pond.

A few moments later, another attack soon followed, as the long purple tongue appeared from the depths of the pond for the second time.

With a smile on his face, Shun Long didn\'t dodge the tongue\'s attack time, and instead, he grabbed the hilt of the black sword with both of his hands before he injected his qi inside it.

The mysterious runes and patterns on the sword\'s surface lit up at the same time, before a gigantic black-colored sword slash emerged from the sword\'s edge, heading towards the massive tongue in front of Shun Long!

\'\'Thundergod\'s slash!\'\'

Shun Long\'s Saint low-grade martial skill erupted from the black sword, colliding with the purple tongue head-on!

\'\'GRAAAAAAAAHHHHHH\'\'

A cry filled with pain and rage resounded from the depths of the pond, as the dark purple tongue was instantly cut in half from Shun Long\'s terrifying slash.

Blood spluttered from the dark purple tongue at the same time, making the water around Shun Long turn into a darker shade of purple, almost as if the poison around him had turned even more potent than before.

Shun Long however had a calm look in his golden eyes that were shining with a light blue light, as he headed deeper inside the pond even faster than before.

Although the tongue of the \'Poison-tongued Toad\' was its strongest weapon, its strength lied in the power it held behind its attacks as well as its poison. In front of Shun Long\'s \'Thundergod\'s slash\' and his star-rank sword, the Toad\'s tongue was effortlessly cut in half.

As he reached the depths of the pond, Shun Long finally saw the silhouette of a magic beast that was more than 4 meters (13ft) tall, with a fat body and a mouth full of blood.

The \'Poison-tongued Toad\' instantly turned its 2 red eyes towards Shun Long and stared at him with a look of extreme rage and bloodlust, before it suddenly jumped towards him with its large mouth wide open, almost as if it was intending to eat him alive.

Shun Long\'s golden eyes lit up with an azure light that was even brighter than before, as he mumbled to himself

\'\'Time Prison!\'\'

The giant toad was instantly frozen in place, as Shun Long forcibly halted the flow of time around it, placing it in a temporary time prison.

Swinging the black sword in his hand for the second time, the runes and patterns on the sword\'s surface lit up once again, before a gigantic black-colored sword slash that was even bigger than the first one emerged from the sword\'s edge, and headed directly towards the toad\'s neck.

Blood splattered in the depths of the purple pond, as the head of the large middle rank 5 magic beast was severed from its body with a single sword slash.
