"This talisman is a Primary Demigod Defensive Talisman, and this pearl is a Quasi Divine Water Pearl, a mid-tier Demigod realm treasure. As long as you pour your divine energy into it, you'll be able to activate the Water Curtain Dominion. The divine energy stored inside can be used once more!"
Bai Yijun slowly explained. He glanced at Ye Chen and passed the talisman and the Quasi Divine Water Pearl to him. "I've been reluctant to use it all this while. Every time the Water Curtain Dominion is activated, it requires a huge amount of divine energy. You can use it when you're fighting against the Demonic Beasts later!"
"The defensive power of the Water Curtain Dominion is enough to block the attacks of mid-tier Demigods. It can even weaken the attacks of high-tier Demigods by more than half!
Every time it's activated, it only lasts for three seconds. Once the three seconds are up, use this Primary Demigod Defensive Talisman. This talisman can last for five seconds, and it can weaken the attacks of mid-tier Demigods by more than half. You should be able to withstand the rest with your armor! "
Bai Yijun's expression was grave. "Try to get the White Snow Divine Sword within three seconds!"
Ye Chen didn't stand on ceremony. He took the talisman and put it into his clothes. "Let's go!"
Bai Yijun hesitated for a moment. He stared at Zu An for a moment before suddenly snatching the Demigod Invisibility Talisman. Gritting his teeth, he said, "I'll go!"
Without waiting for Ye Chen's reply, he rushed to the ninth floor. The moment he entered, he crushed the invisibility talisman.
Ye Chen turned around, only to see Bai Yijun's figure vanishing into thin air. He was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly chased after him. From the information he knew, most invisibility talismans, regardless of their grade, would only last for about ten minutes.
Ye Chen hurriedly walked in. Standing at the staircase, he crouched down and hid his figure in the darkness. He peeked into the ninth floor …
It was pitch-black.
Ye Chen frowned slightly. After pondering for a moment, he flicked his finger, and a blazing flame shot out, illuminating the entire tower.
A cold wind blew in the silent tower.
The demonic beast was still entrenched in its original position. Its entire body was shackled by arm-thick black shackles. As the flames lit up, the originally resting demonic beast slowly opened one of its metallic eyelids, revealing a scarlet and ruthless eye. It stared at Ye Chen, who was standing outside the tower.
Ye Chen felt cold sweat forming on his forehead. He knew that this was a normal reaction when facing great pressure. If his spirit realm was higher, he wouldn't have such a reaction.
He didn't feel too much panic in his heart when facing the demon beast's gaze. Based on the events from before, he'd determined that this demon beast was unable to leave the 9th level!
Ye Chen stood still and carefully looked at the Demonic Beast. Seeing that it was still entrenched on the ground and not moving at all, he was even more certain. He clenched his fist and without any hesitation, his figure moved and rushed out. In an instant, he activated the Lightning Superman mode!
"Waterveil Jinglun!"
Ye Chen flipped his palm and held the "Pseudo Water Deity Pearl" in his palm. He communicated with it with his consciousness and activated the protective shield inside.
This pearl-sized blue pearl emitted a gentle light that illuminated his face. Even his eyebrows were dyed a dark blue. A dense divine power erupted from this tiny pearl, forming a blue light screen that enveloped Ye Chen's entire body. It formed an oval sphere, protecting him from all directions.
This fingernail-sized "Pseudo Water Deity Pearl" had 180 million small gears inside, as well as 12 major optical computers and a main system to control it. It was extremely high-end. If it was calculated in terms of Ghost Stones, it would be trillions!
Outside this blue light screen, there were beautiful scriptures and poems. It used the technology of an Epic Civilization and was filled with a sacred aura.
The moment it was activated, Ye Chen's figure was like a beam of light, rushing in front of the Demon Beast. He instantly activated the Ant Superman mode, and the blood and cells in his body seemed to come alive, suddenly erupting with unprecedented strength!
Strong winds howled past his ears.
Ye Chen raised his fist, his eyes filled with cold killing intent and a tinge of madness as he punched down at the Demon Beast!
"Roar!"
The Demon Beast growled as it activated the boundless divine power in its body, condensing a sharp horn on the scales on its head. It proudly pierced the sky and charged straight at Ye Chen!
Boom!
When the sharp golden horn met the Waterveil Jinglun, it rapidly melted like snow and directly collapsed.
Ye Chen's fist was as steady as a mountain as it heavily landed on the Demon Beast's head!
The blazing flames on the Divine Flame Armor rolled up and wrapped around the fist. Like countless sharp horns, they scuttled into the Demon Beast's body.
All of this happened in an instant. In the next moment, Ye Chen's body was sent flying like a cannonball. He crashed heavily into the wall of the tower and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Who was gasping for breath in the darkness?
Ye Chen stared intently at the Demon Beast, gritting his blood-stained teeth. His hair was disheveled as he charged forward with a roar.
Through the previous strike, he could confirm that the Demon Beast's physical strength was definitely around Level 3 million. Even if he activated Superman mode, his strength was only at Level 1.2 million. Using Meteor Profundity to double his attack, he could only erupt with a strength of Level 2.4 million.
Hualala ~
The Demon Beast's body sank slightly. After enduring Ye Chen's full-powered strike, all the bones in its body felt like they were about to shatter. In that punch, Ye Chen's Lightning Superman mode's speed had multiplied his attack power by far exceeding Level 2.4 million. It had caused the Demon Beast's injuries to worsen!
If it were any other time, even if Ye Chen's strength was at Level 10 million, he would have been instantly killed by this Demon Beast. The Demon Beast only needed to release a wisp of divine power to drill into his body and shatter his brain and consciousness!
But now, with Waterveil Jinglun's divine power weakening, all the Demon Beast's divine power attacks could not penetrate Waterveil Jinglun and harm Ye Chen.
In these three seconds of battle, it was a battle of physical strength!
Sou!
The Demon Beast growled, its scarlet eyes bloodshot as it stared intently at Ye Chen. Its four hooves pushed off the ground, and like a soaring dragon, it charged forward at Ye Chen.
As it moved, Ye Chen lowered his eyes and saw a snow-white beam of light where it had been crouching. It was the White Snow Divine Sword!
The tower was made of special, precious metal that was extremely hard. Other than swallowing the divine sword, the Demon Beast had nowhere else to hide.
Destroy?
The White Snow Divine Sword was a top-grade peak Demigod weapon. It would be extremely difficult for the Demon Beast to break it, and it would need to expend a great deal of strength. It had yet to recover from its injuries, so how could it be willing to waste energy on such a thing?
As for swallowing it, it was needless to say. Although its digestive system was strong, it did not dare to eat a peak Demigod metal.
Unless it was one of the extremely rare Metal Devouring Beasts of the Demon World!
These Demon Beasts were born at the Demigod realm and reached the Semi-Divinity realm when they reached adulthood. They were extremely rare, but their members were all experts!
Ye Chen did not need to think to know that Bai Yijun had been hiding beside the Demon Beast all this time. Knowing that his mission was complete, he hurriedly rushed out of the black door.
At this moment —
Hualala!
The Demon Beast moved like a flash of light, its speed much faster than Ye Chen's. It waved its hooves and smashed down at Ye Chen's back!
Bang!
Ye Chen's body shook as if a large truck had hit him from behind. His heart felt like it was going to burst out of his chest. His mind buzzed, and his consciousness became blurry.
The next moment, his body shot out of the door like a cannonball and crashed into a wall …
"No!" A desolate voice screamed. From an unknown dark corner, a figure slowly appeared. She was wearing a pair of high-heeled boots made of animal skin, a black battle skirt, and a white shirt. Her black hair was blown behind her back, and a few strands were messed up by the wind, teasing her cheeks and contrasting her delicate snow-white skin.
At this moment, her face was filled with despair and heartache. Her limpid eyes were filled with sparkling tears. When the Demon Beast's hooves hit Ye Chen's body, the heavy sound was like a sledgehammer hitting her heart.
Her gaze shifted and landed on the Demonic Beast that had stopped in midair. A strong sense of hatred surfaced in her eyes as her chest heaved up and down slightly. Her expression suddenly calmed down with a quietness that caused one's heart to palpitate.
Deep, deep breaths.
She slowly bent down and picked up the White Snow Divine Sword from the ground. When her slender white hand grabbed the sword hilt, the White Snow Divine Sword let out a sword cry, as if it had sensed its owner. It was a little happy, and a white light shone on Bai Yijun's face.
Cold, as frost.
An ancient voice, like the chants of the Gods and Buddhas, which had disappeared for countless years, once again reverberated between heaven and earth. From this woman's mouth, she softly chanted:
"When I want to trample the heavens … all living things are the foundation …"
"When I want to slaughter the heavens … all living things are the butcher's knife …"
"When I want to defy the heavens … all living things are the rebellious bones …"
…
After a long, long time …
When the white light shrunk like a whale playing in the water, there was already a white figure standing in midair. She held a snow-white sword in her hand, and the light from the sword shone on her body like autumn frost. A wind blew from an unknown place, gently caressing her clothes …
In front of her, the Demon Beast's body was stiff. Its eyes were wide open, and its pupils were already a dead gray. Its body was like a mountain, and although it looked very slow, it was actually falling very quickly.
It landed heavily on the ground.
Boom!
The entire tower trembled slightly, and the burning light that shone on the tower also dimmed at this moment, and slowly, it was extinguished.
Darkness swallowed the surroundings, and it spread around this woman in white. Only she and her sword were still shining with white light.
