Within the giant hall, the gigantic Eugenia stood erect, while a powerful pressure radiated from it, causing the Spiritual Energy flowing within the giant hall to show signs of solidifying. This Eugenia possessed an extremely powerful strength.
"Haha, Mu Chen, weren't you very powerful before?
Now, why don't you fight with me, Eugenia? "
Zhen Qing laughed heartily as he looked at the scene unfolding before him. With Eugenia in his hands, he could finally relax. Given the current situation, regardless of how many trump cards Mu Chen and the rest possessed, it was absolutely impossible for them to make a comeback.
Mu Chen frowned as he stared at Eugenia. The latter's gigantic body was akin to a withered tree, with glowing runes sparkling on its surface. The powerful strength radiating from it caused him to feel a prickling pain on his skin. This was a sign that his physical body had sensed danger. Clearly, this Eugenia possessed a frightening strength that even his Quadra Rune Lightning Body was unable to endure.
The Eugenia before him might possess strength comparable to a Spirit Disaster. Furthermore, according to what Zhen Qing had said, this wasn't even the entirety of Eugenia's strength …
The current situation was indeed much worse than before.
"Now, the two of you can die."
Zhen Qing grinned as he looked at Mu Chen and Luo Li, his eyes brimming with a sinister glint. With a change of his hand seal, the glowing leaf rune on Eugenia's forehead sparkled. In the next instant, the latter's gigantic body shot out, bringing along a frightening amount of power as it hurtled towards Mu Chen and Luo Li.
Mu Chen's figure moved, as a dragon shadow seemed to surface beneath his feet. In a flash, his figure explosively retreated, while Luo Li's speed skyrocketed as he dodged the incoming attack.
Bang!
Eugenia's fist smashed against the ground, causing the entire giant hall to violently tremble. Gigantic fissures rapidly extended out from the ground like pythons. The destructive power radiating from it would cause anyone's heart to tremble.
Whoosh!
As its fist landed on empty air, a glowing rune sparkled on the forehead of the Divine Wood Guard, before its gigantic body instantly shot out at an exceedingly fast speed. In a flash, it appeared right before Mu Chen. Clearly, not only did it possess astonishing strength, its speed was also considerably fast!
The Divine Wood Guard punched out, causing the air to explode under his fist.
Mu Chen's expression changed. The Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear in his hand shook violently. Killing intent swept out and turned into a huge demonic dragon. Carrying surging killing intent, it collided head-on with Eugenia's fist wind.
Bang!
Energy fluctuations akin to a storm swept out, causing the ground beneath Mu Chen's feet to collapse and collapse. At this moment, his body shot backwards, with the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear transforming back into a long spear and landing in his hands. His sleeves had been reduced to dust, while a smear of dark-red blood appeared at the corner of his mouth. Clearly, he had suffered some injuries from the head-on collision with the Divine Wood Guard.
Eugenia's enormous body charged towards Mu Chen once again, its withered tree-like fist enveloping the latter like a shadow.
Whoosh!
However, just when Eugenia was about to launch another attack at Mu Chen, a beautiful figure suddenly flashed above him. An incomparably sharp Sword Aura current whistled out, heading straight for Eugenia's forehead.
Sensing the swift and fierce torrent of Sword Aura, the Divine Wood Guard suddenly halted its advance. Extending its gigantic palm, it blocked the torrent of Sword Aura sweeping over from above. As the torrent swept past, it left behind a deep scar on its withered, wood-like palm. Although the Divine Wood Guard did indeed possess powerful defensive capabilities, Luo Li's Luo God Sword clearly wasn't something that could be easily blocked.
If Luo Li's strength was a little stronger, and he could truly activate the power of the Luo God Sword, a Divine Artifact of the Luo God Clan, he might be able to slash apart Eugenia's giant hand with a single slash.
Below, Mu Chen took advantage of this opportunity to retreat. However, his brows were slightly knitted at this moment. Eugenia's defence was exceedingly powerful. Faced against his and Luo Li's attacks earlier, it had directly resisted them. However, this time, it had chosen to defend against Luo Li's attack. Perhaps this was due to it being fearful of the Luo God Sword, but it might not be the entire reason.
Mu Chen's eyes flickered, as his gaze involuntarily rested on the leaf-shaped rune on Eugenia's forehead. In the next moment, he shot a glance at Zhen Qing from the corner of his eyes. It seemed that every time that fellow changed his hand seals to control Eugenia, the tree rune on the latter's forehead would flicker.
As for the leaf-shaped rune, it was the item that Zhen Qing had snatched from them previously.
From the looks of it, this leaf-shaped rune seemed to be able to control Eugenia. No wonder Zhen Qing had not even snatched the Divine Spiritual Tree, and had instead headed straight for that unremarkable leaf-shaped rune.
Luo Li floated down, landing beside Mu Chen. Shooting a look at Mu Chen, she asked, "Are you alright?"
Hearing those words, Mu Chen faintly shook his head. Fortunately, he had cultivated his Lightning God's Physique to the Quadra Rune Lightning Physique. If not, any random person that had passed their Human Body Disaster would have received serious injuries from that punch from the Divine Wood Guard.
"Haha, looks like the two of you will not be able to cause any waves today." Zhen Qing could not help but chuckle as he gazed at Mu Chen and Luo Li, who were being continuously pushed back by Eugenia.
A cold glint faintly flickered in Luo Li's beautiful eyes. Her lily-white hands tightly gripped the Luo God Sword as a sliver of iciness appeared in her voice, "Isn't it a little too early to be happy?
Do you really believe that I cannot chop apart a piece of broken wood like you? "
A sliver of anger flitted across the young lady's exquisite face. Mu Chen had already fought a huge battle with Xia Hou earlier, and was definitely not in his best condition. Furthermore, he had also clashed head-on with Eugenia. It was likely that he had suffered some injuries, causing her to feel a little heartache. At the same time, killing intent surged in her heart!
As her voice rang out, astonishing sword cries erupted from the Luo God Sword in her hand. Glowing runes seemed to rapidly extend out from the body of the sword, while an incomparably fierce aura that caused even the surrounding space to faintly tremble quietly appeared.
Sensing the fierce sword intent radiating from the distance, Zhen Qing's face slightly changed, before giving a cold snort. Indeed, this divine sword was formidable. If Luo Li was still in her Spiritual Energy Disaster state, she might really be able to pose a threat to Eugenia. However, it was a pity.
"Truly courting death."
Zhen Qing sneered as his hand seal changed. In the next instant, Eugenia shot out once again, unleashing a frightening attack.
However, just as Zhen Qing was activating Eugenia, Mu Chen could clearly see the tree rune on the latter's forehead flickering once again.
With a frosty expression on her face, Luo Li was about to undo the seal on the Luo God Sword and destroy the Eugenia before her.
"Wait."
Mu Chen extended his hand to stop her. The trump card that Luo Li had concealed was definitely extremely powerful. However, if she were to use it, it might cause her to consume a huge amount of energy. If they were to expend a large amount of energy to destroy this Eugenia, it would allow Zhen Qing and the rest to wait for them to exhaust themselves. At that time, the situation would become even more unfavourable.
"You just have to share the burden of Eugenia's attack. Leave the rest to me." Mu Chen said in a soft voice.
Hearing his words, Luo Li shot a puzzled look at Mu Chen, clearly not knowing what the latter was planning to do. However, due to her trust in Mu Chen, she hesitated slightly, before nodding her head. "Be careful. If you get injured again, I'll have to take action."
Her voice was resolute and decisive, clearly not leaving much room for discussion.
With a smile, Mu Chen could not help but caress the young girl's delicate and exquisite face. "Got it. My Luo Li is the Luo King of the Spiritual Road, so domineering …"
Seeing that he was still in the mood to tease her at a time like this, Luo Li could not help but glare at him in annoyance. However, her gaze was as gentle as spring water.
"You're still in the mood to flirt!"
With a sinister smile, Zhen Qing's hand seal changed. In the next instant, the shadow cast by the gigantic body of the Divine Wood Guard enveloped Mu Chen and Luo Li, while frightening energies swept out like a storm.
Bang!
Bang!
Gales swept out within the giant hall. Akin to a god of destruction, the Wooden Divine Guard wreaked havoc as it wreaked havoc. Like flies, Mu Chen and Luo Li revolved around its body, displaying a miraculous movement technique as they continued to evade the attacks of the Wooden Divine Guard. At the same time, they unleashed their attacks, leaving scars on the body of the Wooden Divine Guard.
Tang Mei 'er and the rest held their breaths as they watched the great battle within the giant hall. Their eyes were filled with worry.
Zhen Qing similarly sneered as he stared at the spectacle before him. He wasn't anxious at all, and appeared to be exceedingly leisurely. Regardless of what methods Mu Chen and Luo Li had up their sleeves, they were, in the end, humans. They would also feel tired. However, the Divine Wood Guard wouldn't. It would perfectly execute its orders, knowing that Mu Chen and Luo Li would be thoroughly killed.
Furthermore, it was clear that Mu Chen and Luo Li would not be able to compete with Eugenia in terms of exhaustion. When their Spiritual Energies were completely exhausted, Zhen Qing would be able to easily finish them off with a single finger.
As of now, he could only treat it as watching a show. The outcome was already in his hands.
Boom!
A gigantic fist suddenly enveloped over towards Mu Chen. However, before it could reach him, a beautiful figure appeared before Mu Chen. Sword Aura surged forth, blocking the terrifying fist wind.
At the instant when Luo Li blocked it, Mu Chen's figure suddenly shot out. A dragon shadow appeared beneath his feet. The dragon shadow coiled around, and in an instant, it seemed as though it had pierced through space. His figure shot towards Eugenia's forehead at lightning speed.
"Boom!"
However, just when Mu Chen's figure charged out, Eugenia had also sensed it. Shortly after, it opened its gigantic mouth as if it was roaring. A frightening Spiritual Energy shockwave burst out like a streak of light, instantly enveloping Mu Chen.
Buzz!
Just when the streak of light was about to hit Mu Chen, his figure trembled. Black light spread out as a gigantic black pagoda appeared in a flash, protecting his body within it.
Clang!
The metallic voice resounded in the huge hall like a bell.
As the glowing black pagoda rapidly dissipated away, Mu Chen's figure appeared on the forehead of the Divine Wood Guard. With a clench of his hand, a piece of black paper appeared within his palm, while a mysterious energy started to radiate from it.
Boom!
At this moment, Eugenia seemed to have sensed some sort of danger. Ignoring Luo Li's attack, its gigantic fist whistled over like a mountain. The frightening energy caused the air to explode, causing space to slightly distort.
As the shadow enveloped over, Mu Chen showed no signs of retreating. On the contrary, he continued to rush out amidst the exclamations of Tang Mei 'er and the rest.
"Courting death!"
Zhen Qing grinned malevolently.
Boom!
The gigantic fist heavily smashed against Mu Chen's body. As the frightening energy rippled out, the latter's body was sent flying like a cannonball. In the end, he smashed against a gigantic pillar, causing huge cracks to appear on the pillar.
However, at the instant when Eugenia smashed against Mu Chen, the latter's palm gently patted against the rune on Eugenia's forehead that was flickering with radiance.
