Daxuan Wusheng: Start by practicing and adding points

Chapter 648 Giant Snake
The Molten City looks very small from a distance, but in fact there is a void barrier on the outside. Only by crossing the void barrier can you see the true form of the Molten City. This void barrier is both a concealment method and a line of defense.

At this moment, the abyss beast crashed directly into the barrier of void and immediately began to wreak havoc, extending strange tentacles as black as ink, lashing around wantonly. Wherever the tentacles fell, the void collapsed layer by layer, and each crack broke into seven layers.

The people in charge of defending the city were all gods, and they could tell the strength level of this abyss beast at a glance. Although its appearance and methods were strange, it was only at the seventh level and could not be considered a threat.

"I'll go."

The Green River God spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already left the tower.

"This abyss beast is a little bit powerful, and Brother Luhe may not be able to deal with it quickly. I will go and help him."

Another voice sounded.

Then a wisp of afterimage flashed by in an instant, and also flew out of the tower and headed towards the direction of the abyss beast.

Swish!
In the next moment, a beam of green light broke through the air in the void and pierced through nothingness in an instant. The speed was so fast that it crossed the void barrier of the Molten City in almost an instant and arrived behind the abyss beast!

This sudden flash of green light directly penetrated the body of the abyss beast!
The green light stopped behind the abyss beast, revealing the figure of Green River God. He had a calm look in his eyes and held a sharp dark green spiked weapon in his hand. The green light just now was the attack he had made.

Although the strength of this Abyss Beast has reached the seventh level, it has not yet reached the peak of the seventh level. Facing the sudden attack from Green River God, it was completely unable to dodge and was completely penetrated by the Green River God's move.

Wow.

The tentacle monster that was dancing and lashing wildly in all directions suddenly stopped in mid-air after the green light passed by. Then green rays of light burst out from its body, like traces of shattered parts, spreading to the ends of the tentacles, and finally the body of this abyss beast collapsed and shattered from the center!
However, this Abyss Beast had finally reached the seventh level. Even after enduring a blow from the Green River God, it was not killed directly. After its shattered body, it only paused for a moment before quickly reorganizing and wriggling into a black ball. At the same time, a strange black line suddenly spread out from the black ball and shot towards the Green River God!

The Green River God's expression remained unchanged. He gently swung the dark green spiked weapon in his hand. A flash of green light tore through the void and directly cut off the attacking black line in mid-air.

And at the same time.

Another surge of power suddenly descended and landed directly on the body of the abyss beast.

"Formless Divine Thunder!"

An indifferent voice spread from the void, and lightning suddenly appeared in the sky, extending with countless lights, some were red, some were bright purple, some were shining silver... Lightning arcs of various colors flickered, and then gathered at one point in an instant, forming a beam of terrifying divine thunder, which fell on the body of the abyss beast and exploded on the wriggling black ball!

Crackling.

The void exploded all of a sudden, and the seven layers of void collapsed one by one.

The abyss beast endured the blow, and the black lines extending from the black ball broke into pieces. Its entire body also broke apart at once, creating a crack. Beams of lightning spread through the crack, constantly destroying its life essence.

"arc."

The Green River God looked indifferent, and he made a move immediately. The dark green spiked weapon in his palm emitted an arc of light, which flew out of his hand directly. A green light flashed in the void, and it directly pierced through the body of the abyss beast again.

A green light suddenly appeared and flickered continuously inside its broken body, as if interweaving billions of green silk threads, echoing with the beams of annihilating lightning, completely suppressing the abyss beast, even curbing its breath, without any aftermath.

After a while.

boom!
The lightning and green light were completely extinguished, leaving only the ashes left after the Abyss Beast was completely killed.

In the tower,
Seeing that Lu He and the other two easily dealt with the abyss beast, everyone was not too surprised. Someone stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "Lu He's method is indeed extraordinary. His power is concentrated on one point and he can also suppress his aura."

Anyone present can deal with an Abyss Beast that has not reached the peak of the seventh level, but since they are there to guard the Molten City, there are usually two ways to deal with the Abyss Beast: either suppress its aura as much as possible and kill it quickly, or use means such as imprisonment to temporarily control it and keep it in place, then let the Molten City move away quickly and get rid of it.

Generally speaking, when dealing with the abyss beasts of the seventh heaven, the main approach is to kill them, while when dealing with the abyss beasts of the eighth heaven, the main approach is to expel and imprison them.

Because the Molten City itself is a divine weapon of extremely high status and has the suppressing effect of the void, once the Abyss Beast invades the interior of the void barrier, it will be temporarily isolated from the inside and the outside by the power of the Molten City, and the power of the Seventh Heaven will basically not dissipate.

Like the Green River Lord and the other two who had attacked before, they had also deliberately restrained the power of their moves and concentrated them on one point, so that the noise of the battle was more difficult to spread. To the outside world, this Abyss Beast just disappeared in the Molten Fire City without any disturbance.

However, if it is an Abyss Beast from the eighth heaven, it would be relatively difficult for Molten City to completely suppress the movement.

If it cannot be killed in a short period of time, and the noise is a little louder and lasts longer, it may attract the attention of more abyss beasts and bring more unnecessary trouble.

Therefore, the abyss beasts above the eighth heaven are mainly suppressed and expelled. After all, at the level of the eighth heaven, short-term imprisonment and suppression are always much easier than complete destruction.

Chen Mu stood in a corner of the tower, looking thoughtful.

He was observing the structure of the Molten City. The void mysteries contained in this palace-type divine weapon should be much more profound than that of the Brahma Palace. He suspected that it was most likely a superior divine weapon forged by the Nine Heavens God.

The effect of increasing strength of the superior divine weapons is the same. The superior divine weapon that best suits one is the one that maximizes the increase. Like him now, before he has comprehended the fusion of the three mysteries, even if he has complete control of the Brahma Palace, he cannot bring out the full power of the Brahma Palace, and the effect he exerts will not be much different from that of the Haotian Mirror.

The same goes for Molten City.

This palace-type magic weapon is very likely to contain the mystery of the fusion of the four mysteries, but such a magic weapon can only exert its full power in the hands of the God of the Ninth Heaven. Others, even the God of Fan Gu, cannot fully exert its power.

But even so, the void suppression power it possesses is still very strong. Carrying a magnificent world like the Molten Fire Realm is obviously not too much of a burden for it, and the actions of the Green River God and others in dealing with the Abyss Beast are also completely suppressed by it.

"It's a pity that I can't comprehend it carefully."

Chen Mu shook his head slightly in his heart.

It was the authority granted to him by Lord Fangu to visit the Fangu Palace, which allowed him to directly comprehend the profound power contained in the Fangu Palace. However, he did not have such authority over the Molten City, nor could he directly peek into the essence of the Molten City. He could only observe from the side, and gained very little.

However, Chen Mu's heart was not too shaken. After all, the road to the divine realm had to be taken step by step. Now he had not even fully comprehended the fusion of the three mysteries. Even if he was allowed to peek into the essence of the Molten City and directly observe the source of the fusion of the four mysteries, it was still too early for him and he might not be able to truly comprehend anything.

After the Abyss Beast was killed, Chen Mu focused his attention, closed his eyes and sat cross-legged in the depths of the tower, and focused his energy on the interface clone again, continuing to comprehend the Great Dao of the Void and accumulate experience.

After all, defending a city is different from exploring outside alone. When you are alone, you basically have to be alert all the time. But now, even if you are responsible for defending the city, you don’t need to be alert all the time. After all, Molten City itself is a line of defense, and there are many other gods here. Even if a deep beast attacks, there is enough time to react.

……

Hundreds of years passed in a hurry.

"hiss!"

Outside the Molten City, a roar was heard.

But then they saw a giant scarlet snake beast with a long tongue and a pair of black gemstone-like snake eyes staring at the Molten City. It was huge, stretching for thousands of miles, and exuding a terrifying aura all over its body.

This giant snake beast forcibly invaded the void barrier outside the Molten Fire City in just a moment, and its invasion was different from that of ordinary beasts. It was more like a corrosion and drilling, and the void barrier had almost no blocking effect on it. Obviously,

This giant snake beast possesses certain Void skills!
Inside the tower, everyone, including Jingtian, Luhe and many other gods, all looked up at the first moment and glanced in the direction where the giant snake beast was attacking.

Lu He and many other gods only took a look and their expressions changed slightly, because the one who attacked this time was not a seventh-level abyss beast, but a being whose aura was clearly at the eighth-level!
Eight heavens!
Although everyone is at the peak of the seventh level, even when facing the abyss beast of the eighth level, they all have ways to escape, but they can only escape. It is impossible to confront it head-on, and it is equally difficult to stop it.

Jingtian's eyes moved slightly, and he was about to step out, but Chen Mu, who had been silent in the corner, stood up gently, took a step forward, and disappeared into the tower. At the same time, a voice came.

"Let me do it."

Chen Mu came to the outside of the tower, and with a slight shake of his figure, he had already reached the edge of the Molten City and met the giant snake.

Time passed quickly, and it had been more than four hundred world years since he came to guard the city. During these four hundred world years, Molten City had suffered many attacks from the Abyss Beasts, but he had never taken action even once.

Whenever encountering a seventh-level Abyss Beast, it was usually Green River God and his companions who took action. The eighth-level Abyss Beast had also appeared twice, and both times it was God Jingtian who trapped and drove it back briefly. Now that another eighth-level Abyss Beast was attacking, it was natural for him to take action as well.

Seeing Chen Mu making a move, Lord Jingtian paused.

Judging from the aura of this abyss beast, its strength should be similar to his. If they really fought, it would be almost impossible to kill it. If he went to fight it, he could only use his means to trap it temporarily and drive it away.

However, the methods used by this Abyss Beast vaguely carried some of the mysteries of the Void. It would be more troublesome to suppress and trap it in this situation. He immediately ruled out many coping strategies in his mind.

"This abyss beast is not easy to deal with..."

Lord Jingtian muttered to himself in his heart, and he had already arrived at the edge of the tower.

There is probably still some gap between Chen Mu's strength and this Abyss Beast, but Chen Mu is cultivating the Void lineage, so he definitely has more means of suppressing and imprisoning it than his Creation lineage. After all, the Abyss Beast is not a cultivator, so its means are relatively crude. It would be easier to simply drive it away.

But Lord Jingtian was not sure whether Chen Mu could succeed, so he was prepared to take action if Chen Mu failed.

Hiss!

The giant snake beast eroded the void, and in just a moment, it had arrived outside the Molten Fire City. It was high above, overlooking the entire Molten Fire City, and even the vast Molten Fire Realm. Its pair of snake eyes were shining brightly, as if it had discovered some exciting prey.

After hissing twice, it suddenly opened its huge mouth, and a surge of power burst out from its snake mouth. This power was not a spitting or destructive force, but a swallowing force, which wanted to suck out and devour all the creatures in the Molten City!

but.

Almost at the moment when the sucking force broke out and spread towards the Molten City, a beam of white mirror light broke through the void and went straight into its huge mouth, entangled with the sucking force brewing inside its huge mouth. After a brief tear, it collapsed and exploded with a bang.

The giant snake immediately closed its mouth, making a few dull sounds, and shook its head vigorously, obviously feeling a little uncomfortable. A fierce light flashed in its originally excited snake eyes, and its gaze suddenly turned to the source of the mirror light, looking at Chen Mu at the edge of Molten City.

hiss!
It hissed again, but this time the sound was filled with violence and ferocity.

The next moment, the giant snake suddenly swung its tail.

hum!
Everything between heaven and earth suddenly came to a standstill. The entire Molten City and even Chen Mu's figure were frozen in place, as if the pause button had been pressed.

Malice was revealed in the eyes of the giant snake Abyss Beast. In this state of stillness, its movements became extremely slow, but compared to everything else, it was still able to move. It quickly approached Chen Mu and then suddenly bit him.

Silently.

Chen Mu's body was swallowed by it in one bite.

After devouring Chen Mu, the giant snake beast's eyes flickered with faint light, and it spit out its tongue a few times, as if it had sensed something was wrong. It suddenly turned its head towards the Molten City, opened its huge mouth again, and burst out with a swallowing force.

This sucking force instantly acted on the edge of the Molten City, colliding with a certain force. After a brief tear, it crushed that force abruptly!
however.

The scene where many lives in Molten City were sucked in through the air did not happen.

The strange power that enveloped the walls of Molten City was suddenly accompanied by a cracking sound at the moment it was crushed, like the sound of a mirror breaking, and the entire "Molten City" was in a state of collapse.

boom! ! !
The next moment, the wall of Molten City collapsed directly in front of the giant snake beast. However, after the wall collapsed, there was nothing behind it, just a vast void, as if the broken wall was just a layer of illusory mirror.

The giant snake beast was stunned for a moment, and then it realized that it had been deceived. It immediately showed a look of shock and anger, let out a hissing sound, and looked around, but could not find any trace of the Molten City.

……

In the high tower above Molten City.

Chen Mu looked calm and returned to the tower.

"Lord Shepherd has good tactics."

"The Void Clan's tactics are indeed mysterious. They have already trapped the Abyss Beast without any real fighting."

Green River and many other gods saw clearly what was happening in the outside world. They only saw Chen Mu wave a mirror light, and then the giant snake beast suddenly stopped in place. The Molten City only accelerated slightly, broke through the air in an instant, and flew directly away from the giant snake beast.

Although we don’t know what happened exactly, there is no doubt that it must have been the exquisite method of the Void lineage.

"It's a good trick indeed."

Not only Green River God, but even Jingtian God had strange looks on his face and couldn't help but praise him.

If he took action, although he had the confidence to temporarily trap the giant snake beast and drive Molten City away quickly, he would definitely have to take real action, and a brief confrontation was inevitable.

However, Chen Mu had never fought with the giant snake beast. The power released by that beam of mirror light did not collide with the giant snake beast, but seemed to create an illusory space scene to deceive it, so it made almost no noise.

"That abyss beast is not very intelligent, so it can use this method."

Chen Mu shook his head slightly and said, "If a more intelligent abyss beast can easily see through it, the effect of my method will be very ordinary. Speaking of which, the abyss beast just now not only possesses the methods of the void lineage, but also seems to have the tricks of the time lineage. If we really confront it forcefully, it may still be a bit tricky. However, it has the methods of both the void and the time lineage, so the methods of the creation lineage are a bit weak. Its low wisdom is its flaw."

"Even so, this method is only available to you. I am not good at the Void lineage, but I don't have this method to deceive the Abyss Beast." Lord Jingtian said with a smile.

Chen Mu looked normal. After talking to everyone for a few words, he retreated to a corner.

Some of the other gods closed their eyes and rested again, some gathered in twos and threes, each discussing something in a low voice, and some looked at Chen Mu with a gleam in their eyes.

The level of strength is indeed the foundation. Chen Mu, the God Overlord of the Eighth Heaven, even if he has just barely crossed the threshold of the Eighth Heaven, does have extraordinary means, especially in dealing with Abyss Beasts, he is probably not much inferior to God Lord Jingtian.
