Watching the Emperor's Overlord Spear in Chu Tian's hand, the Octopus Shark became greedy. "You're just a B+ level talent warrior. If you don't want me to kill you, hand over your Emperor's Overlord Spear to me, and I might consider letting you go," the enormous shark said, fixing its huge black eyes on Chu Tian.
Chu Tian knew that promises from beasts were unreliable. He twirled his spear and said with a smile, "I admit your S-level strength is formidable, but you might not be able to keep me here if I decide to leave."
"If you're seeking death, then I'll grant it," the Octopus Shark replied, swinging its numerous tentacles, making the air around it moist, which seemed to have some paralyzing effect. Fortunately, Chu Tian had an auxiliary talent that made him immune to poisons. He put away the Emperor's Overlord Spear and summoned a Thunderbolt Sword, attacking the shark but was deflected by its tentacles.
Chu Tian summoned five more swords, but the Octopus Shark easily deflected them too. Nuo Ta and others watching from afar felt anxious, as Chu Tian seemed to be at a disadvantage against the powerful and large Octopus Shark.
After seeing Chu Tian's swords being deflected repeatedly, the shark taunted him, suggesting he hand over the Emperor's Overlord Spear for a dignified death. Chu Tian, however, was not deterred and summoned all remaining Thunderbolt Swords to attack the shark.
The shark, growing impatient, continued to deflect the swords. But when the last sword was deflected, Chu Tian smiled triumphantly, a look that puzzled the shark. Feeling a sense of danger, the shark grew more cautious, especially when Chu Tian made strange hand gestures.
Activating the Slaying Heaven Sword Formation, Chu Tian trapped the shark and some nearby beasts in a massive black light barrier filled with thunder and lightning. The shark found itself in a space filled with rolling black fog and thunder, realizing it had been trapped.
At the gas station, Nuo Ta and the others saw the black lightning barrier and panicked, fearing Chu Tian had been captured by the Octopus Shark. Nuo Ta, not considering Chu Tian's capability, worried, but Ning Wan reassured him after sensing Chu Tian's spirit energy, confident that he could escape if needed.
Inside the formation, Chu Tian watched the panicked shark, feeling the full force of its S-level attacks on the formation. The shark's attacks caused some trembling in the formation walls and disturbed Chu Tian's spirit energy.
Chu Tian then launched the formation's most powerful attack, the Slaying Heaven Sword Formation. The formation's dome gathered thunder and lightning, draining his spirit energy. Chu Tian used several fourth-level spirit crystals to sustain the formation's energy demands.
Fearing for its life, the shark begged to be released, offering to become Chu Tian's war beast. Chu Tian was briefly tempted but dismissed the idea, knowing the dangers of such a binding without proper contract methods. He didn't trust the shark's plea, knowing its cold-blooded nature.
When the formation's thunderous great sword, measuring ten meters in length and four to five meters in width, was ready, Chu Tian commanded it to strike. The sword, accompanied by countless smaller thunder swords, struck the Octopus Shark, which had no choice but to endure the attack with its defenses.
After the attack, the formation shrank, preparing for the second strike. The Octopus Shark, overwhelmed and powerless, faced the relentless onslaught of the Slaying Heaven Sword Formation.
