The mother star secretly transformed itself from us

Chapter 2514 MUTO
In the blink of an eye, Old Wang was speared several miles away by a spear that resembled a grenade but wasn't as regular or smooth. The fel chains rattled and collided, and the spears that grew from the hands of those one-headed giant ogres were constantly being thrown out. The hollow horns on their backs seemed to be breathing in the power of the entire ogre horde, constantly drawing in energy winds and spewing out thick smoke.

Old Wang's eyes widened in disbelief. At that moment, he was like a badger caught in Runtu's spear, tumbling and crawling: "What the hell is this thing?!"

"Then don't worry about it!" Li Cang didn't care at all about the fact that this guy was being kicked around like a ball for the first time in his transformation history: "Use your ultimate skill! Let's get through!"

"Damn! A poet? May I ask?"

Li Cang ignored it, casually pointing his finger, and the Silver Ridge Beast Domain expanded: "Also, I need at least one living MUTO among these!"

“What Mu. I@#￥%”

Despite the overwhelming firepower of the Muto's spears that seemed to fill the entire world, Li Cang managed to charge into the Thunder Pool with his meager agility, the sacrifice of the Great King, and the help of his rebellious sons. In an instant, the wind howled, and fragments of black crystal clusters and giant spears were everywhere.

The mage's body seemed to be sculpted by a slime. Even when crushed and cut by spears, the fragments that were never whole would transform into the power of the three phases before hitting the ground, nourishing the body. Like a phantom that did not truly exist in this world, it rose and fell like a cannonball, leaping and bounding among the MUTOs.

As is widely known, Your Excellency the Mage has always been devoted to research.

Rather than getting bogged down in a mess, it's far more sincere to engage in a scientific, respectable, and professional dialogue with these modified MUTOs. Yes, the traces of these MUTO bloodline modifications are extremely obvious under the scrutiny of the three-phase anchor; they're crude and rudimentary, like something hastily pieced together from a few chunks of meat, yet they've achieved exactly the effect Hissmore Anel had been dreaming of—

Lively.

They possess a vibrant and lively quality that no bio-engineered beast has ever had, which is also why the bio-engineered system must rely on servants of fate or other life forms.

With his rebellious sons bringing up the rear, Li Cang was finally able to shake off the entanglement of these massive creatures with incredible ranged attack capabilities. He clicked his tongue, stared at the few drumming trolls, the aged ogre witch doctor, and their...emmmm guards not far away, and revealed a satisfied smile.

"Hi?"

“@#￥%…”

Li Cang's greeting was brief and perfunctory, filled with a wizard-like arrogance. So the ogre witch doctor immediately launched into a monologue in his own language. It was clear that they were extremely angry. A group of rebellious children were at least tough nuts to crack with ridiculously high health and incredible defense, not to mention the Silver Ridge Behemoth, whose bloodline and skill system were extremely abstract. It was unlikely that they could eat a group of Mutor alive, but it was also a pipe dream for those things to break through the rebellious children's tight defenses in a short time.

Li Cang coughed and straightened his ferocious dragon robe: "Isn't this the atmosphere of academic discussion? Excuse me, everyone, please raise your hands if you're right, but don't point at me. Okay, now for free trade!!"

"Crack~"

Li Cang was sent flying backwards, his entire body, along with his large magic wand, streaking through the air with sparks and lightning. Had the large magic wand not blocked the spear for him, the two-meter-long, grenade-like spearhead would likely have exploded far more than just in front of him.

"Huh?" The mage narrowed his eyes. "Could this guy be the prototype for those MUTOs later on? Nice!"

The shattered spearhead, after colliding with the great wand, ignited with tiny indigo flames, turning into embers that drifted up and reassembled in the hand of the diminutive MUTO, barely two meters tall. It hunched its back, stepped forward, and the gilded, intricately patterned totems covering its body glowed, illuminating its face, and then—

A blue atomic breath, most likely inherited from Brother Ge, slammed directly into Li Cang's face. The ground around him collapsed violently, and the matter sublimated into energy-state light flames, triggering a secondary explosion that vaporized everything within a radius of several kilometers. "Hiss."

Li Cang clenched his fist, his hand bones, now devoid of any flesh or blood, his expression somewhat ferocious, baring his teeth.

Despite its small size, this thing's attack power is far more terrifying than those of larger creatures. It even managed to chip away at the second health bar, which the mage usually kept perfectly still, along with the initial health bar. Clearly, it's more than just mixed damage.

"you--"

Li Cang's second word was shoved back into his throat. A bone spear had somehow already been thrust into the center of his chest. The end of the bone spear was held in the hand of the little Muto. It was so fast that it didn't even appear properly in the anchor of the three phases of power. It squinted and looked Li Cang up and down, spitting out a string of disdainful indigo flames from its nostrils.

"Kick!"

With almost no leverage involved, the bone spear pushed Li Cang's flesh and blood burst forth in all directions as if decomposing itself, and a fine skeleton emerged directly from the flesh and blood, slamming into the ground at an angle.

A brief pause.

Deep beneath the surface, the mud and rocks surged like waves, rising and falling abruptly, before wisps of indigo smoke emerged from the cracks.

"Holy crap!" Li Cang threw himself out of the mud just before Xiao Muto turned and walked away, sprawling on the ground like a rogue: "Hey buddy, is your combat power permanent? How is the consumption calculated? What's your stamina bar? What do you usually eat and drink? How many cannibalistic monsters do you eat in one meal?"

"Kick!"

Another sound.

However, this time MUTO did not achieve its goal. The grenade-shaped spear, which looked as if it had wood fibers wrapped around it, was blocked precisely by the blackbody crystal cluster.

The shockwave slashed at the ground like a blade, carving out a deep, thin, and smooth fissure.

The spear slowly burned to ashes, the black body riddled with cracks, and pieces peeled off and fell away. Li Cang flicked his finger, and the fragments of the black body spun and floated over, flying around his arm.

"You won't fall into the same pit twice." Li Cang raised his hand and unleashed a blast of burning wind: "Baby, let me see your true bloodline ability."

"Boom~"

The giant wand suddenly appeared between Li Cang's legs, once again blocking the spear that burst from the ground and the MUTO that followed closely behind. However, MUTO's figure seemed to blur for a moment or two, and he actually bypassed the giant wand itself and collided solidly with Li Cang. The sound of bones cracking immediately rang out.

Muto clearly hadn't expected Li Cang to be this hardcore. The collision and recoil finally made it lose its balance, and it spat out a mouthful of blood that shone with indigo light, sending shockwaves flying and retreating hundreds of meters away.
