Chapter 240 - 93: Confronting the Celestial Corpse
The encounter of Tier Nine happened in the blink of an eye, for their current strength made such distances disappear in an instant.
Suddenly, the sky was filled, covered entirely by darkness and golden light.
The Celestial Corpse, upon seeing Mu Qing, spoke coldly, "Human, you actually dare to come out of your shell?!"
In the past, the Celestial Corpse had clashed with Mu Qing, but was nearly always overpowered by him.
Moreover, within the Abyss, his Recovery Power was exceptionally strong.
These humans dared to resist them on Blue Star; now, they even dare to invade the Abyss with the help of the Heavenly Dao Will?
If it weren’t for the threat from the Void and those old immortals.
The ’Abyss’ would have already united all its factions to invade Blue Star.
Mu Qing’s current attire was extremely holy; his once black hair was now billowing without wind; the towering figure behind him had a blurred face but carried an incomparably holy aura.
Six pairs of arms vaguely emerged from his back, while a pair of hands at his belly embraced in a Yin and Yang circle.
"You are allowed to attack us, but we are not allowed to attack you?" Mu Qing said calmly.
The next moment.
The shadow behind him began to flicker with an earthy-yellow light, mixed with boundless terrifying waves; the earthy-yellow light began to converge.
And the next instant.
Roooooar...!
The sounds of countless dragon roars erupted instantaneously, and majestic earthy-yellow forms appeared.
Countless scales, an incomparably holy aura, and dragon claws like blades, spiraling in the air.
They rushed into the darkness and began violently surging, obliterating the strength within the dark shroud.
"Seeking death!"
In an instant.
Azure-gray power spread madly, sweeping across the entire sky at great speed, tainting the moving earthy-yellow dragon bodies with azure-grey.
The once lively dragon forms seemed petrified.
But Mu Qing didn’t just await the attack; golden light filled the sky, transforming into power resembling a Domain, fiercely clashing with the Celestial Corpse’s power.
The recently immobilized dragons moved again, charging at the Celestial Corpse.
Each dragon’s sweep carried tremendous force that shattered the darkness released by the Celestial Corpse.
"Your human power is too weak!"
The Celestial Corpse sneered, seeing the dragons approach did not make him lose his composure; his palm morphed into iron-hook-like claws.
With a slap towards the charging dragons.
’Boom boom boom boom!’
Each dragon emitted sounds of metal-crushing, exploding.
"The body of the Celestial Corpse!"
The Celestial Corpse’s body expanded again, terrifying pressure that suppressed everything rose another layer.
Immediately, his form shattered the golden light, rushing towards Mu Qing.
But in the next instant.
Numerous dragons appeared again within the golden light, relentlessly attacking the Celestial Corpse’s form.
"Boom boom boom boom——!"
The Celestial Corpse and dragons clashed, each dragon couldn’t withstand a punch from the Celestial Corpse.
A single punch sufficed to blast apart the dragons formed from the golden light.
Simultaneously.
The Celestial Corpse quickly approached Mu Qing, who murmured, "Kunling·Heavenly!"
The sky was enveloped once again; the hands before Mu Qing’s Dharma Aspect flipped, and vast power surged forth.
A unique power began to flow, vast and heavy as the endless earth.
Buzzing sounds hummed!
The Celestial Corpse suddenly felt boundless pressure suppressing his entire body; not only in sensation, his every sense was ’bearing’ this crushing pressure.
That terrifying pressure aggressively assaulted every part of his body, even his soul and the Abyss Core hidden within.
"Nice move!"
The Celestial Corpse was forcibly halted by the heavy pressure, and countless dragons launched thousands of strikes upon him at that moment.
’Bang——bang——bang!’
Invisible sonic booms spread wildly, shattering everything around.
The Celestial Corpse’s originally aggressive body was forcibly pushed back again.
Meanwhile, Dugu Yan and Fang Qingluan also began to act.
Eight glowing red long swords appeared before Fang Qingluan, all of epic-level weapons.
"Eight-direction Sword Array, Chaotic Sword Technique!"
Fang Qingluan instantly utilized her strongest skills, being only Tier Eight.
Even at just level 82, pulling at the Celestial Corpse’s strength demanded she gave it her all.
Streams of Sword Qi spewed from the eight longswords, transforming into dazzling sword lights in the sky of gold and black.
In an instant, a sword array formed in the sky, and in less than a second, the sword lights flew.
’Clang——!’
Directly aiming at the Celestial Corpse’s vital points, while Dugu Yan continued hurling various poisons, forming a purplish-blue region within the gold-black sky.
Various Poison Magic intertwined, morphing into an even deadlier toxin.
"Break it for me!"
Terrifying Abyssal Power transformed into azure-gray light, directly breaking through Mu Qing’s magic.
Simultaneously.
Seeing the sword lights and poisoned spells following closely behind.
His eyes filled with disdain.
"A mere sword array and poison attempt to harm my Celestial Corpse body?"
The Celestial Corpse coldly snorted, enveloping himself in a layer of menacing Bone Armor.
This Bone Armor gleamed with a pale light.
The Sword Qi clashed with it, triggering countless sounds of metal, lacking even a scratch.
As for the Poison Magic, the Celestial Corpse’s domain shattered them with its extremely domineering force.
"Attempting to lure me away? You’re overthinking it!"
The Celestial Corpse suspected Mu Qing must have some scheme to draw him out.
But he had just forced part of his strength into the Corpse Maiden, elevating her to Tier Eight.
And with so many Pollution Cores at the Source, the Corpse Maiden and other Tier Sevens have formed a ’Celestial Demon Array’ to channel part of the Ba God’s power.
Even Tier Eight couldn’t possibly challenge them.
Moreover, the Iron Corpse has already begun leading the army towards Zhenyuan City.
It wasn’t this human female drawing him out; rather, she walked into a trap herself.
"Unless you go personally, the ancestral land is not a place for you to enter."
"And if you don’t return soon, your city will perish."
Fang Qingluan’s face changed slightly, but Dugu Yan merely laughed coldly, "Whose homeland we’ll lose is uncertain yet!"
Mu Qing’s palms fluttered, casting various spells at the Celestial Corpse, merely scoffing at his words.
Had it been someone else, Mu Qing might have worried about Zhenyuan City’s fall.
But the issue was that Shen Fei was still in Zhenyuan City.
He could summon his Summoned Beasts back to Zhenyuan City at any time.
It’s all about the information gap.
This is also why War God Luo’s name is renowned among Tier Ten.
Even if his single Tier Ten combat power might not match an individual Tier Ten, War God Luo’s mobility is deemed the strongest of Tier Ten.
Hence.
The worst outcome for Shen Fei’s plan was merely not resolving the Pollution Source.
You would earn more if you prevail, and even if you don’t, you still don’t lose, cases like that, Mu Qing will definitely back them up.
Thus, for the Celestial Corpse’s words, Mu Qing simply smiled, continually casting spells.
The Celestial Corpse hesitated briefly; in the past, upon hearing such words, this human female often wouldn’t linger in battle.
Why now nothing has happened?
Could she really be that confident in those attempting to raid the Abyss Ancestral Land?
But soon.
The Celestial Corpse relaxed, for the Celestial Demon Array was bestowed by Lord Drought Fiend, safeguarding with a portion of Tier Ten power.
Tier Eight is simply impossible to have any chance of breaking through!
This human female will likely come to regret today’s reckless actions in the end.
