The Pastoral Life of a Cultivation Master

Chapter 3129 Powerful Defense

Chen Mo had many backup plans, so although he was surprised, he was not in a hurry. He was surprised and uncertain, but his hands moved quickly.

The shadowy figure, Du Xing, looked at the last layer of the array barrier. A sweep of his divine sense told him that he was in the right direction. As long as he could break through this barrier, he would be able to face the guy who controlled the array.

"Hmph!" After snorting, he didn't linger and continued to swing the stick in his hand, smashing it hard against the array barrier.

"boom!"

The powerful strike caused the barrier to flash with light, and the entire complex formation began to shake.

The more than one hundred strange beasts trapped in the illusion array were also awakened by such a powerful blow and struggled to break free of the illusion array.

At this moment, the array barrier also developed cracks and was on the verge of collapse.

Unexpectedly, Chen Mo threw out dozens of talismans, directly using the array to control them and send them to the shadowy figure.

"Explode!" Chen Mo shouted immediately.

Dozens of talismans were instantly detonated around the dark figure.

"Boom, boom, boom..." The explosion of dozens of talismans created a huge impact, which temporarily stopped the black figure from attacking. Instead, he swung his stick to neutralize the talisman attacks one by one.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to have such tricks up your sleeve! But if that's all, it's not enough!" With that, he thrust the stick forward with all his might.

With another loud bang, the array barrier was instantly shattered! The control node of the array was exposed to the shadowy figure, and naturally, Chen Mo's figure was also exposed.

In an instant, the dark figure darted forward, its eyes turning bloodshot with excitement: "Damn little bug, got you!"

Chen Mo looked at the dark figure that appeared in front of him and the black hand that was rushing towards him. He immediately dodged backward and used the restriction on both hands again!

"Too late!" The already somewhat ferocious face of the shadowy figure became even more distorted. Its speed increased again, instantly catching up with Chen Mo's retreating body and reaching out to grab him once more.

However, Chen Mo remained calm. He drew out the Onimaru with one hand, and with the other hand, the second set of formations was activated instantly.

"Block the enemy!" In an instant, several layers of barriers appeared between the shadowy figure and Chen Mo, blocking them.

With a loud "bang!", the black hand of the shadowy figure was blocked by the array barrier.

"This little bug is actually quite clever!" Du Xing, the shadowy figure, wasn't disappointed. He had seen many array controllers who were difficult to catch, so it wasn't a big deal that he hadn't caught Chen Mo just now.

So he swung the stick again and smashed it against the array barrier in front of him.

This time, he connected with the dragon pattern on the staff. After instantly inputting his true essence, the dragon on the staff seemed to come alive, and the entire staff emitted a dazzling white light.

"Take this!"

"boom!"

Although it was a single sound, it consisted of several sounds. In fact, with this one blow, the barrier that had just been formed was instantly shattered by the attack of the stick!

Suddenly, Chen Mo was exposed to the shadowy figure once again! "Haha! Let's see if you can still run!" the shadowy figure laughed!
However, Chen Mo grabbed Onimaru with both hands, took a step forward instantly, and without retracting his staff, he slashed at the black shadow as the central gate opened, before the old and new powers had even been exchanged.

"Hehe! Interesting!" The shadowy figure didn't say much. He watched as Onimaru slashed down, but he wasn't in a hurry. With a flick of his hand, the Panlong Staff bent, one end in the shadowy figure's hand, while the other end attacked Chen Mo's back.

"Damn it!" Chen Mo suddenly became a little anxious!

He hadn't shown any signs of anxiety before, but now it was.

Especially now that he controls the formation, everything that happens within it is under his control.

So the stick suddenly bent and attacked his back, which was completely unexpected!

He never imagined that an incredibly hard stick could bend like a whip in the shadowy figure's hands, and then strike his back directly as he attacked.

Without a second thought, he sidestepped, half-spinning the Onimaru in his hand, and slashed at the incoming staff.

With a loud "clang!", the force from the stick sent him staggering back more than ten steps!

The power was immense; had he not been protected by multiple talismans, he would have been injured.

Sure enough, this blow was just a casual flick of the black shadow, but the power it contained was something he couldn't withstand.

But Mo Chen didn't care. Taking advantage of the distance between the two, he took out about ten talismans and threw them at the dark figure. Then, the formation was activated, and several more layers of defensive barriers appeared.

With a series of "BOOM!" explosions, the talisman was detonated, enveloping the black shadow.

However, Chen Mo knew that such an attack would not have any effect on the shadowy figure; it would only delay it for a moment.

He cast a barrier to isolate himself, and his body kept retreating as he placed the Onimaru in his hand in front of his eyes.

Sure enough, a large nick appeared on Onimaru's blade!

He had just exchanged blows with the staff using Onimaru, but he hadn't expected the Onimaru to have such a large chip in it. The Onimaru is unusable now; if he continues to use it, it might break after a few more impacts.

This Onimaru has been with him for a long time, and it never got chipped like this before. He had refined the Onimaru, forging it according to weapon-making techniques, adding ingredients like Tenjinsha to make it both sturdy and sharp, but now it's chipped after just one impact!
The staff that the dark figure was using was incredibly powerful; I never expected it!
The shadowy figure retracted the stick without a sound, crossed his arms, and used the stick in front to protect his face as he rushed out of the area covered by the talisman, then swung the stick again.

The talisman had just been detonated, but the impact was negligible to him. As long as it didn't directly hit his eyes, any other impact would have little effect.

Even he hadn't expected that because of the poison of the Love Tribulation Gu, his skin would become dry and hard, clinging to his bones like a dried corpse, and his strength would also drop significantly, from the peak of the Golden Core stage to the early stage of the Golden Core stage. However, his physical defenses had become several times stronger!
It was truly a matter of timing and fate. On one hand, there was a Gu poison that tormented him to the point of wanting to die, while on the other hand, it strengthened his body's defenses several times over. This was something Du Xing had never expected.

Seeing the dark figure emerge from the exploding lightning and flames, its body still intact, Chen Mo was also horrified!
He really hadn't expected that the shadowy figure's defenses were so high.

In other words, with such strong physical defense, even if Onimaru had slashed at his chest, it probably wouldn't have caused much damage.

Damn it, its defense is so strong, is it because of a mutation?
Looking at the skin in front of him, which resembled that of a dried corpse, Chen Mo couldn't help but feel a little envious.
