Feifei burrowed deeper into the Supreme Monster's body, noticing her foes trying to follow her. She extended her hand, touching the sides of the flesh she had burrowed through, layering a viscous membrane over it.
When her foe came into contact with it, he started to scream as his body began to blister. Upon seeing his state, the others that had planned to enter the wound stopped, watching the blisters on their comrade burst, killing him from the pain.
"Dammit! Hack the muscles! Hurry! We'll make a new path towards her!" the gash-riddled man screamed, picking up a massive sword as he hacked the Supreme Monster, grunting, "Damn it, she used us to kill it. But now, she's reaping the benefits."
As they constantly pursued Feifei anywhere she went, she had no choice but to escape towards the Monster Gecko territory. As humans and Monster Geckos were at war for the past five years, she planned to live in hiding within enemy territory.
Of course, unwilling to leave her alive, they had chased after her, following her nonstop, uncaring about the deaths sustained. After all, their hatred was something that had festered for 8000 years. Until Feifei was hacked into pieces and her entrails strewn across the ocean, their fury wouldn't ever disappear.
So, they chased her like rabid dogs. And that was when it arrived. A wounded Monster Gecko, the Supreme Monster that led the Monster Geckos against a war with the humans.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSurprisingly, it seemed that the Supreme Monster Gecko had been fighting with Gehen, hence the injuries it was inflicted with. Even though it had been growing at tremendous speeds, Gehen was even faster.
Also, since he also had more time to accumulate strength, the Supreme Monster Gecko was unable to defeat him, sustaining mortal injuries as a result. After it fled, successfully escaping Gehen's pursuit, it had arrived at an empty Primary Landmass.
The monsters in it had been killed ago, and as it was barren, none lived there. It was a secret spot the Supreme Monster Gecko used to heal every time it suffered grievous wounds from Gehen. When it did the same this time, Feifei arrived at the scene.
She used the Supreme Monster Gecko to protect herself, causing the attacks of her pursuers to fall on it, enraging it. And before anyone realized it, her pursuers were locked in a battle against the Supreme Monster Gecko.
Due to its mortal injuries, it was unable to kill everyone, losing strength in the process. Moreover, upon seeing its state, Feifei's pursuers also hoped to gain an active ability. That way, they'll be able to kill Feifei and other members of her sect that had arrived at the Sub-Realm.
With that motivation, they brought it close to death's door, losing many lives in the process. The death toll crossed a thousand and continued to pile up.
But in the end, it seemed that Feifei had used one of her Passive Abilities to insert a corrosive substance into the Supreme Monster Gecko's body all over, managing to deal it the final blow. Due to that, it was recognized that she was the one that killed the Supreme Monster Gecko.
Due to that, its essence—the one that would condense the active ability—flowed into Feifei's body. It was like she was mocking their sacrifice, reaping the benefits in the end.
To those that had once been robbed of their wealth and lives by her sect members, this action of hers further enraged them. So, they hacked at the Supreme Monster Gecko in a frenzy, beginning to shout whenever they spotted traces of Feifei moving about within the flesh of the monster.
"She's here!"
"She moved towards its spine!"
"She's using its stomach to protect herself."
As their shouts continued to resound, their attacks increased in vigor. As for Feifei, she was constantly on the move, also emptying all the Water Essences she had brought into her mouth, using the excess healing effect to barely survive the burning sensation.
The essence of the Supreme Monster Gecko continued to stream into her. If not for the fact that she had been injured an uncountable number of times over the past three decades, she would have lost consciousness from the pain she was feeling now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs she hid within its stomach, its stomach acids continued to damage her. With that, she needed the healing effect from the numerous Water Essences to remain alive. As she continued to struggle, her eyes suddenly lit up in joy while a devilish expression appeared on her face.
She continued to move about within the Supreme Monster Gecko's stomach, watching the blades of her foes begin to reach it. Her body was healing at a faster rate now that she was no longer being burned.
She hurriedly began to experiment, using the fact that she was within the Supreme Monster Gecko to understand her active ability better.
A sword hacked into the stomach walls, tearing through it when all the stomach acids gushed out, causing him to scream as his skin burned up. And at the same speed, Feifei swam out, piercing her hand through his chest, crushing his heart.
Her eyes lit up immediately, muttering, "I see, so the bone trees are a functional part of the Monster Gecko's body. Rather, their real selves are the bone trees, and they are just creatures birthed from it to take care of themselves. And now…"
Grunting, she pulled her hand, causing some sort of essence from the man to condense on her palm, forming a small orb. She swallowed it, closing her eyes for a moment before spitting it out, "Garbage passive abilities."
The orb shattered upon landing on the ground, vaporizing in the process. Feifei looked at the people surrounding her now that she had exited the Supreme Monster Gecko's body.
"Today, I won't be the one to die." Snorting, she sprinted towards the closest foe, causing a layer of scales to grow on her body as she deflected the attacks, using her sharp claws to pierce his chest. And similar to before, she pulled out an orb, swallowing it before spitting it out. "They…aren't good enough."
