In the sky, Mu Chen sensed the bewildered gazes sparkling with astonishment. Unable to help himself, he faintly curled his lips and said, "This Spirit King's weak point is clearly on its forehead. Even if all of you were to randomly attack it for an entire day, I'm afraid that you wouldn't be able to injure it."
Upon hearing this, everyone gawked and hastily turned their gazes towards the Spirit King. At this moment, the dazzling brilliance on the latter's forehead had already retracted a little. Faintly, they seemed to be able to see a crystal, approximately the size of a human head, embedded in the centre of its forehead. That crystal sparkled with a dazzling brilliance, while frightening Spiritual Energy fluctuations continuously radiated from its body.
Everyone stared at the dazzling crystal, before coming to a sudden understanding. So this was the weak point of the Spirit King's entire body. No wonder why Mu Chen was able to force it back with a single strike.
Zhao Qingshan's and Mu Fengyang's expressions had clearly become slightly relieved. If Mu Chen truly possessed the strength to force the Spirit King back, exactly how frightening would his strength be?
If Mu Chen truly possessed that kind of strength, who would be able to compete with him for the Spiritual Light of the Spirit King?
"Roar!"
As they came to a sudden understanding, a dazzling brilliance once again erupted from the gigantic body of the Spirit King. Due to the crystal on its forehead receiving an attack, it seemed to have become enraged. As it roared, a gigantic Spiritual Energy pillar descended from the sky like a beam of light, violently rumbling towards Mu Chen.
Swish!
However, Mu Chen, who was already prepared, instantly activated the "Leaping Dragon Art". As the dragon image surged, his figure had already appeared a thousand metres behind him, dodging the beam of light.
Rumble.
The beam of light landed on the ground, causing a gigantic crater to be smashed open.
Indistinctly, he seemed to be able to see some brilliance flickering.
Mu Chen took a look at the gigantic crater on the ground and was slightly startled. However, before he could think carefully, a gigantic shadow enveloped over.
The gigantic hand of the Spirit King had already violently swatted over.
The air exploded as Mu Chen hastily activated the "Leaping Dragon Art", dodging the gigantic hand just as it was about to touch him.
Mu Chen appeared.
His expression was grave and his heartbeat sped up a little. This Spirit King's attack was too terrifying and he did not dare to let it touch him. Otherwise, his injuries would not be light.
"Let's attack the crystal between its eyebrows!"
However, it was fortunate that the others had also recovered their wits at this moment. With explosive roars, all of them rushed out in a flash. Numerous fierce attacks began to bombard the dazzling crystal between the Spiritual King's eyebrows.
Facing the concentrated fire on his vitals.
This time, the Spirit King did not directly endure it.
Instead, it waved its gigantic hands.
He blocked all the attacks.
However, everyone's attacks were crafty after all. Under the obstruction of the Spirit King, there were still several attacks that violently bombarded the crystal.
Then, the Spirit King's enormous body was forced back once again.
However, just as it retreated …
He immediately withstood the attacks and returned to his original position.
Boom!
Enormous Spiritual Energy light beams gushed out from his palms, directly blasting a few unlucky fellows to the point of vomiting blood as they were sent flying backwards. As their auras withered, rays of light immediately descended from the sky, sending them out.
Facing such losses, everyone only took a glance, before once again focusing their attention and madly attacking. Blade light and sword glints that blotted the skies howled, violently chopping towards the dazzling crystal between the Spirit King's eyebrows.
This Spirit King was indeed newly born not too long ago. Although it still possessed a rather terrifying strength, it appeared to be somewhat sluggish, as if it had yet to reach that smooth and unrestrained degree.
It was precisely because of this that Zhao Qingshan and the others dared to target its head. If not, once the Spirit King passed its birth period, its strength would once again wildly and explosively increase. At that time, the few of them might not even be enough to fill the gaps between its teeth.
Everyone's attacks continued, but at the same time, their losses also continued. Only half of the original hundred people remained. The remaining people were sent out of the Spiritual Light World with a slap from the Spirit King.
Such losses could not be said to not be disastrous.
However, although their losses were disastrous, the Spirit King seemed to have been consumed quite a bit by them. Its attacks were no longer as wild and violent as they were at the beginning, and it only firmly protected the crystal between its eyebrows.
"Haha, everyone put in more effort! This Spirit King is indeed newly born, and its strength is not as strong as we had imagined. It's fine as long as we avoid its attacks!" In the air, Mu Fengyang looked at the Spirit King, whose attacks had slowed down, and laughed heartily.
Hearing this, everyone's spirits were roused, and they once again increased the speed of their attacks.
Mu Chen had also sent a Spiritual Energy pillar exploding out, while his eyes continuously flickered. The strength of this Spirit King was indeed not as strong as he had imagined. Was it truly because it was newly born?
Mu Chen's gaze swept towards the location where the Spirit King was standing, and his eyebrows faintly wrinkled. On the ground there, there were huge pits that had been stomped out. However, it seemed that no matter how everyone attacked, the Spirit King did not leave that area.
"Exactly what's going on?" Mu Chen stared at the land, while his eyebrows tightly knitted together.
Bang!
While Mu Chen was muttering to himself, the Spirit King's huge hand extended out, erupting with rays of brilliance that were tens of thousands of feet long. It ferociously slapped towards Mu Fengyang, who was raising their morale.
Seeing that the Spirit King had locked onto him, Mu Fengyang's expression slightly changed. Just as he was about to dodge, his eyes caught a glimpse of Mu Chen, who was not far behind him. Immediately, a faint glint flashed within his eyes.
Swoosh!
His figure suddenly flew out diagonally, and just happened to appear in front of Mu Chen. At the same time, the Spirit King's huge hand ferociously covered downwards, enveloping the two of them within.
As the shadow enveloped them, the slightly distracted Mu Chen also regained his senses, and his expression immediately changed.
"Heh heh."
The corners of Mu Fengyang's mouth curled into a smile that harbored ill intentions. Spiritual light erupted from his body, and a set of deep yellow thick Spirit Armor appeared on his body, tightly enveloping him.
That Spirit Armor was clearly a defensive Spirit Weapon that was not weak.
"Bye bye." When the Spirit Armor enveloped Mu Fengyang's body, a sneer seemed to be emitted.
Mu Chen's gaze was sinisterly cold. This fellow actually wanted to divert trouble, and wanted to borrow the strength of the Spirit King to blast him out of the Spiritual Light World. However, this Mu Fengyang was really too naive. Did he think that he, Mu Chen, would be helpless just like this?
Black light surged on Mu Chen's body, and a black pagoda surfaced, enveloping him within.
The Nine-layered Pagoda possessed an extremely strong defensive strength, and could be considered as Mu Chen's strongest defensive method. If one truly wanted to talk about defensive strength, even Mu Fengyang's Spirit Armor could not compare to it.
Bang!
When the Nine-layered Pagoda enveloped Mu Chen, the Spirit King's huge palm ferociously and furiously swatted downwards. Immediately, a metallic sound resounded, and the two of them directly fell down, violently shooting into the ground, smashing a deep and huge pit.
Puchi.
Mu Fengyang miserably crawled out from the huge pit, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out. He lowered his head and looked at the Spirit Armor on his body. There were already some cracks on it, causing him to be filled with heartache. However, he immediately turned his head and looked at the deep pit nearby. Smoke and dust pervaded the air. From the looks of it, that fellow would definitely suffer heavy injuries due to his haste.
"Let's see how you'll fight with us for the Spiritual Light." Mu Fengyang coldly laughed. Soon after, he suppressed the injuries within his body, and once again charged towards the horizon.
The two of them were previously struck by the Spirit King, and were seen by everyone. When Xu Huang and the rest saw that only Mu Fengyang had flown out, they were slightly startled. It seemed that Mu Chen's injuries this time around were not light.
Previously, Mu Fengyang's actions were obscure, and no one would have thought that he had purposely diverted the trouble towards Mu Chen.
"Mu Chen!"
The expressions of the three Wang brothers changed. Soon after, they suspiciously glanced at the innocent Mu Fengyang. However, without any evidence, they could not say anything.
Everyone regretfully shook their heads. However, the current situation did not allow them to be distracted. Very quickly, they once again focused their minds to deal with the Spirit King, whose attacks had slowed down.
"Mu Chen has been struck!" In the distance, An Ran and the rest had also seen this scene, and their beautiful faces instantly changed.
Luo Li's eyebrows faintly knitted together. However, her eyes were somewhat ice-cold as she shot a glance at Mu Fengyang in the sky. However, she did not panic too much, and only softly said, "Don't worry, that Mu Fengyang is only lightly injured. Mu Chen is also not that weak."
When An Ran and the rest saw that Luo Li was not panicking, they also calmed down a lot, and faintly nodded.
As everyone in the sky continued to encircle and attack the Spirit King, no one discovered that Mu Chen's figure had appeared beside the Black Tower in the deep pit that was filled with smoke and dust. He looked at the intense battle in the sky, and his eyes flickered as he looked at the ground. Soon after, he punched out, creating a deep pit in the ground. He jumped in, and once again wildly punched out.
Very quickly, a deep pit was blasted out, and Mu Chen's figure disappeared within the pit. When Mu Chen disappeared, the Black Tower at the side moved over, covering up the pit. This way, even if the smoke and dust dissipated, no one would discover that Mu Chen had disappeared, and would only think that he was hiding in the Black Tower to recover.
Bang!
Bang!
Under the ground, black flames surged on Mu Chen's body. Like a pangolin, he unceasingly penetrated deeper into the ground. The thick soil and rocks were directly burned away by the black flames.
From the very beginning, he had sensed that there was something wrong with this gathering point. It was impossible for those Spirit Generals to disappear for no reason. Furthermore, the strength of the Spirit King was not as strong as he had imagined.
No matter how they attacked, the Spirit King would not leave the range of a hundred feet it was in no matter what.
Its appearance was more like it was guarding something.
Since the thing it was guarding was not above ground, he would search underground.
With a low shout, Mu Chen circulated his Spiritual Energy, increasing the speed at which he traveled underground. Approximately a minute later, his heart suddenly moved. The underground below him had unexpectedly disappeared, and his figure had also pounced forward.
Mu Chen hastily stabilized his figure. Spiritual Energy wrapped around his body, and he vigilantly looked towards the underground. When his line of sight looked over, the expression on his face froze bit by bit.
"This is …"
Mu Chen deeply breathed in the air underground that was filled with the smell of soil. At this moment, dense shock surged within his heart.
(There will be a third update!
Now, continue writing.
PS: I have to go to Shanghai tomorrow. At that time, I might not have the time to make up for it. I might even miss an update. However, remember it, I will definitely make it up.)
