Chapter 187: Could they be any more outrageous?

"That's... the Terrashock beast!"

Rumor had it that the colossal Terrashock could emerge from the shattered earth, its body as massive as a mountain.

But no one had ever heard of Terrashock being able to block Earth Escape Talismans.

For the people living in Aurora Land, Earth Escape Talismans were everything when it came to survival!

Staring at the terrifying scene before them, everyone turned pale, scrambling to retreat.

But the beast's enormous body, like a small mountain, loomed over them, blotting out the sky. It felt impossible to escape its reach.

With every step, the ground shook violently, rumbling endlessly.

No matter how far they ran, they couldn't escape its control.

What had once been a bustling street was instantly reduced to rubble, countless stalls crushed underfoot.

Those who barely managed to flee were now paralyzed by fear, their legs weak, unable to run any further.

Or rather, even if they did run, there was no way they could escape from such a terrifying creature!

The elderly ice cream vendor looked down at the now-useless Earth Escape Talisman in his hand, his lips trembling slightly.

He never imagined that after living such a peaceful life, he would die in a place like this.

Not just him—without the protection of the talisman, none of his people would survive.

Today, everyone here was going to die!

Boom.

The ground shook again, and the ice cream stand collapsed, scattering debris everywhere.

The vendor stared at the massive shadow of the beast, his eyes filled with overwhelming fear.

But just then, two figures calmly walked against the panicked crowd.

The vendor immediately recognized them.

Two young people, the couple who had just bought ice cream from his stand, clearly very much in love.

"Terrashock is an ancient, terrifying beast. Even many powerful practitioners can't handle it.

Young people, you should run! You're young and strong, maybe you still have a chance to escape!"

The vendor's old face was filled with despair.

He knew he couldn't escape, but he didn't want Timothy and Sylvia, such a beautiful couple, to die here.

"Don't worry, old man."

But Timothy just waved his hand casually, as if the massive shadow of the beast didn't concern him at all.

"If you dare ruin my date, I'll make sure you die quickly."

Sylvia, whose date had been rudely interrupted, had a sharp glint in her eyes.

She raised her slender arm, and a dark green aura slowly appeared in her hand.

The aura spread out, its power growing stronger by the second.

Terrashock, though a powerful ancient beast, was nothing in the face of a Holy Emperor-level practitioner.

However, just as Sylvia's Holy Emperor aura was about to fully manifest, Timothy suddenly stopped her.

Gently pressing down on her arm, Timothy shook his head. "Hold on, babe. No need to take him out so quickly."

"What do you mean?"

Sylvia blinked, confused as to why Timothy was stopping her.

"Well, the thing is, whenever you're around, you can just flick your finger and solve everything. It kinda kills the fun, you know? But I've got an idea."

Timothy smiled. "How about today, we don't use any of our cultivation powers? Let's just take this beast down with pure physical strength."

"That idea... actually sounds pretty fun." Sylvia's eyes sparkled with interest.

But she added, "Still, this beast is almost as strong as an Ocean's Gate practitioner. My physical strength isn't that great. If I completely suppress my cultivation, I might not win."

"That's easy. You've got me, don't you?" Timothy grinned.

"Hmph, you're just a little Ocean's Gate practitioner." Sylvia huffed, a bit smug.

"A little Ocean's Gate practitioner who still gets to kiss his goddess." Timothy smirked shamelessly.

"You!"

In this situation, Sylvia couldn't keep bickering with Timothy, so she just huffed and turned her head away.

But soon, two wooden swords slowly appeared in Sylvia's hands, and she handed one to Timothy.

"These swords are formed from my Sacred Form. Their sharpness rivals even Heavenly-level artifacts."

"Thanks, babe." Timothy took the sword.

Feeling the cool, gentle energy flowing through it, his fighting spirit surged.

At the same time, the Terrashock beast was already charging toward them.

Despite its massive size, its speed was anything but slow.

The ground cracked beneath its feet, and everything around it was utterly destroyed.

But instead of retreating, Timothy and Sylvia rushed forward.

They had completely sealed off their spiritual energy, relying only on the wooden swords in their hands.

"ROAR!"

Sensing its authority being challenged, the Terrashock let out a furious roar, its massive leg crashing down like a pillar.

Sylvia leaped gracefully, her movements light and swift like a swallow, and in an instant, she was airborne.

The aurora in the sky shone down.

Sylvia's light green pleated skirt fluttered gently in the wind, her long, jade-like legs occasionally peeking through.

Under the glow of the aurora, her skin gleamed like snow, and with the soft sway of her dress, she looked like a pure white lotus blooming from the water—delicate and breathtaking.

But while the scene was as beautiful as a painting, the wooden sword in her hand was anything but gentle.

With a swift slash, a chilling aura spread through the air.

Even without using any spiritual power, the sharpness of her strike was enough to send shivers down anyone's spine.

Clang!

However, the sword only left a small crack on the beast's rocky hide.

Compared to Terrashock's enormous body, it seemed like no real damage had been done.

Without the aid of spiritual energy, Sylvia's control was slightly off.

As the sword bounced back, the force caused her to lose balance, and she began to fall rapidly.

But before she could hit the ground, a pair of arms gently caught her.

Sylvia's clear eyes shifted, and she realized it was Timothy who had caught her.

And, of course, Timothy's hands took the opportunity to give a playful squeeze to the soft flesh on her waist.

"You! At a time like this..."

Sylvia glared at Timothy, half-annoyed, half-amused.

"What can I say? It's not every day I get a chance like this." Timothy grinned.

"You…" Sёarch* The novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Sylvia huffed, but her face flushed slightly as she begrudgingly let it slide.

"Fine, I'll let it go this time. But if you try that again…"

She trailed off, her face still a little red, but she had clearly forgiven him.

However, the onlookers were completely dumbfounded.

Sure, this couple's strength was impressive, no doubt about that.

But in such a critical moment, they still had the time to flirt and show off their affection?

This… this was just too much! They were like a cold, heartless, mobile PDA machine! Could they be any more outrageous?
