Meanwhile, you keep hunting down those with steelier resolves, and put them down with ease. More than a dozen simply abandon their posts, swimming away from you all and back towards the Abyss. But five of them don't run, and don't activate their traps early. Curiously, they all gather together, almost as if making themselves an easier target for you. But then you sense it. A surge of <span class="mu-i">wrongness</span> hits you through your link to New Salda, as you feel the ten ki signatures all begin melding together in a dark, shadowy cloud.

It's easily three times as large as a Mindslayer, and magnitudes stronger. The sense of <span class="mu-i">wrongness</span> that surges through your link to New Salda is greater than anything you've ever sensed before, this is something that Should Not Be. It's brownish body looks surprisingly tough, tentacles sprouting out along its body as the beast moves. Without hesitation the creature surges directly at you, far faster than you'd expected, and it immediately tries to devour you! But you're just fast enough, dropping down as the beast's head turns sideways and narrowly slipping out before it's mouth closes shut. But it's not done yet, as the tentacles along its head all try grabbing onto you.
“Death Slash!” you roar, slinging a blade of sharpened ki as the suit muffles you. Your ki slices out, and cuts into the beast's grappling appendages. But to your shock, as your attack hits the tentacles stop grabbing for you, and actually stop your attack by wrapping around and around it! You feel your Death Slash's ki begin vanishing, and as it breaks apart you realize that, somehow, this beast is able to absorb your ki through its tentacles! How are you supposed to fight something like this?
Well? What do you do? What CAN you do?

It seems that it indeed is the key to defeating such monsters>Swim directly inside it's mouth, telepathically tell the Rak'kari to get clear, then Super Explosive Wave this massive beast from the inside until it pops. >Final Flash directly to the face, let's see how much it really likes your ki>Channel New Salda's and your own energy into your spiraling, piercing Dawn Breaker and punch a hole straight through this abomination>Summon forth Divine Dragon Force, try and end this monster with a single strike>Other(write in)
