Chapter 1280 639: Matching Quantity with Quantity, the Tyrant's Creation
Tao Chen was horrified!
His instincts told him, "Something's gone wrong!"
Any craftsman, whether from the Association or You Sui, would never initiate conflict without any preparation. In situations other than accidental encounters, craftsmen tirelessly ensure every preparation is made, guaranteeing they can blow the victory horn before battle commences.
For this reason, he exhaustively searched for every record and information on Ji Jue, estimating with even more exaggeration than he did for Ye Xian, and made targeted plans.
Including eliminating all mechanical creations in the wasteland, suppressing hand-refined performances through the Circle Realm, and the spiritual essence refining of Ye Xian. Through the Tyrant's Heavenly Artisan, he maximally weakened the destructive power of Fuel Element Weapons while isolating external interference, and made numerous defenses against the Ye Family's Nine Forms...
It seems shameful to mention, but even if he cursed severely, Tao Chen truly treated Ji Jue, who's a whole Rank lower than him, as an equal opponent and targeted him full force!
For this, he even spared no expense to use a Blessed Creation from the Gate of Eternity on Ji Jue's path to set up a perfect temporal vortex, ensuring that at the moment of activation, internal time would be completely frozen, resolving all troubles witheringly.
In the end, none of his preparations, damn it, came in useful...
All the messages and information were damn outdated!
All wrong!
Originally under dual suppression of the Circle Realm and the Tower's shadow, he should have completely banned Non-Attack focusing everything towards the Superior refining, but this dog's Mutated Alchemy seems more skilled than mine!
The theory of Fluid Alchemy was entirely different now, even with two additional variations...
In just a brief instant, classical alchemy and modern alchemy, Ember and Zhi Fu, Superior and Mutated, different systems, versions, formats, and theories spun before his eyes like a carousel, impossible to ban properly!
What's more terrifying, is the magnitude of operations happening simultaneously!
As if suddenly plunged into the infinite darkness of the cosmos... beneath spiritual perception, countless dazzling lights erupted simultaneously from within his Circle Realm!
Like a galaxy's brilliance.
Each sparkle was an insignificant refining, almost negligible, even a breath could utterly erase it; but when there are tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousand, and even... more than a hundred thousand refinings happening simultaneously, everything changes dramatically!
Among countless refinings, Tao Chen only felt a bout of suffocation.
In the blink of an eye, a sky full of Cun Jun Swords swooped in, each stream of light's trajectory entirely unique, seemingly gripped by invisible hands, engrossed in control and manipulation.
Wisps of exceedingly fine Illusion Light continually split and merge in mid-air, gathering and scattering invisibly, eerily lively, performing feints and quick slow knives damn it!
Easily deceiving layers of obscure light interception, swallowing Tao Chen whole, defense creations triggered one after another, relentless collisions made one's scalp tingle.
Suddenly, Tao Chen's figure exploded, reformed in mid-air again, an Ancient Mirror emerged in his hand, mists spread, Frost Flow surged, erupted fiercely!
Instantly obliterating half of the Cun Jun Swords.
Which elicited laughter from Ji Jue.
"Chickened out already?"
True, matching quantity for quantity posed no issue, but the key lies in... you're a transcend, too afraid to compete operations with Rebirth, starting to compare output, shameful isn't it?!
Especially since you're Ember, in intra-element duels, high ranks occupy absolute advantage, yet cannot match operations with lower-ranked opponents?!
Then what kind of craftsman are you!
Crushing war ended up like this, news spread to You Sui, Jian Yuan laughed from indignation!
By comparison, Ji Jue was more interested instead...
Why from start to now, has that guy constantly grasped the Scepter in his hand, not relaxing one bit even now?!
Beneath the Hanging Elephant Mirror's insight, every spiritual essence flow was vividly perceptible, from beginning to now, vast amounts of spiritual essences continuously irrigated the Scepter in his hand, never stopping for a moment.
And after expending so much spiritual essence, the dignified Heavenly Artisan's effects revealed outwardly, only exiling the Superior while summoning countless Mud Evil Spirits to endlessly entangle...
There's a problem!
In a moment of daze, he heard wailing, from above the heavens.
Amidst the dark firmament, decaying bloodshed scattered like a torrential rain, within blurred downpour, viscous darkness surged, eerie menacing silhouettes gradually expanded, six wings nine heads, raising heads crying out, voices like infant wails, innumerable infant skulls soared high like mountains.
A half-decayed monstrous bird raised its head, deafeningly shrieked.
Razor-sharp sound expanded like blades, assaulted every eardrum, every life and blood cocoons instantly gathered amidst the cries' summons.
More lethally, Ji Jue's consciousness momentarily paused, plunged into stupor.
Amidst the obscure light, eerie Illusion Light flickered.
Suddenly, waves of obscure light surged with grotesque flames, pierced through, splattering amidst Zhanlu's electrical flashes.
Blocked it!
Can it still be blocked?
Ji Jue's stupor be damned, he has backup!
Isis doesn't buy into this, not having Ji Jue's nagging beside, operational efficiency soared, abruptly withered flower seas again, amidst Mercury Sword, Cun Jun and Zhanlu's radiance entangled.
Gaseous Alchemy, in turn extracted power from Circle Realm and Tyrant Domain, launching a counter-offensive against Tao Chen.
Still not at a disadvantage.
But Ji Jue's heart sank to the bottom.
Because the appearance of the monstrous bird wasn't targeting him...
[Sir, should we defend?] Isis said calmly: [After allocating some computing power for suppression, the situation can be alleviated.]
"Don't bother!"
Ji Jue decisively abandoned his teammates, without hesitation: "As long as you can suppress that useless thing, the rest is out of consideration!"
Dividing attention now would be courting death!
Operation is operation, capability is capability, a gap of a great rank is itself a chasm, when facing a craftsman of Transcend Rank, giving one's all is a path to death, there's no room for hesitation!
[Understood.]
At this moment, Isis's control fully took over, as an unfinished Matrix Holy Relic, completely devouring its master, turning around to control everything of the master, recklessly launching a fierce attack on Tao Chen in the distance!
Countless pale flowers conjured from thin air, woven into a crown in the air above.
After abandoning all the outer ranges, a domain enough to resist Circle Realm suppression was formed within ten meters around, wherever the flowers were was within Isis's reach, at this moment, countless hands had already gathered around Ji Jue, drawing an invisible line.
Indifferent, abandoning everything.
Launching a fierce attack on Tao Chen!
This time, even Tyrant Heavenly Craft and Circle Realm couldn't suppress the operation of Three-phase Alchemy, everything within reach was under Summoning!
"Ha, seems like I've been made a sacrificial pawn."
In the carriage of Little Ox and Horse, Tong Shan chuckled softly, but was unconcerned.
If Ji Jue gave up the great advantage to aid now, it would be a betrayal of trust; from the moment they fell into the trap, everyone should have prepared for their own death.
Good job!
Clap!
An Ning's Fei Guang shot out again, severing the head of the strange bird, it shrieked, blood gushed like a fountain, its fierceness even more rampant.
Rapid rebirth.
Fei Guang didn't work?
An Ning hesitated for a moment.
"That's the Tyrant's creation of chaos... Woven by the laws of mutation, it's not a living thing, let alone capable of death, as long as the Tyrant exists, it can be reborn limitlessly."
Tong Shan calmly responded, while blood continued to seep from his mouth and nose.
Sticky blood snaked towards the monstrous bird, while in its frenzied screeches, the sound of a baby's cry grew closer, yet remained indistinct...
A monster born from the deaths of countless infants, the Chaos Beast [Gu Huo]!
Within Tong Shan's perception, countless translucent pale infants surrounded them like beasts, continuously crawling into the carriage, probing.
Yet under the suppression of telekinesis, they shattered, dissipated, and reformed once more.
Fei Guang erupted again, but not towards the distant bird, it was directed beneath Little Ox and Horse, the sticky darkness boiled like liquid, with a poisonous hiss emerging from the bubbling black water, pale faces surfaced like drowned ghosts, staring fixedly at them.
An Ning said, "More than one."
And under the cover of the Blood Rain, an eerie skinny and hunched figure emerged from the corpse of the Transform Wolf, scars and stitches crisscrossing its face.
A single eye stared coldly towards Tong Shan.
"Quite the grand gesture..."
Tong Shan sighed: "Seam-faced Tax Collector, Water Ape, and Gu Huo, in such a short time, three chaotic entities have been catalyzed, worthy of the Tyrant Heavenly Craft."
Rooted in the White Country, a land long soaked in blood and death, that scepter continually drew countless deaths and grievances, catalyzing and strengthening the chaotic creations it birthed; as long as White Country existed, the suffering accumulated over hundreds of years on this land would continuously provide them with power.
Moreover, formidable enemies lurked.
In his hand, the ancient parchment map remained unrolled, the eyes inside already bloodshot and trembling, turning in all directions.
The places viewed by the gaze were empty, devoid of anything.
Only a chilling presence, like a prickling thorn on his back, surrounded him from beginning to end...
As if an invisible enemy.
Staring at him!
For a moment, Tong Shan's expression grew complex...
He had been chosen as the weak point of breakthrough, to restrain others through him, even force others to expose weaknesses.
Thus, Tong Shan decisively, extended his hand!
