Earth-shattering dark-green Spiritual Energy shot out from the towering trees as it whistled across the horizon and rapidly gathered at the center of Mu Chen's palm.
The dark-green radiance was like a huge vortex. Although it seemed gentle, it was emitting a fluctuation that would cause one's heart to palpitate.
"This is a Divine Art?"
Wen Qingxuan's beautiful eyes were tightly fixed on Mu Chen. The dark-green Spiritual Energy was clearly not something that Mu Chen had cultivated, but something that came from the countless trees. Mu Chen had borrowed this energy. Generally speaking, only a genuine Divine Art could borrow the mysterious energy that existed between heaven and earth.
"It should be a Lesser Divine Art." Luo Li said softly.
The so-called Divine Arts were also divided into different levels. Roughly speaking, they were roughly divided into three levels: Lesser Divine Arts, Greater Divine Arts, and Perfect Divine Arts. More accurately speaking, these were techniques that only Sovereign experts could truly use. However, once one's strength had reached the Three Minor Disasters, one could actually use them. It was just that the might displayed would not be comparable to that of a Sovereign expert.
"This Divine Art seems to be something from the Divine Wood Palace."
Wen Qingxuan fell into deep thought. The energy that came from the myriad of trees seemed to be something from the Divine Wood Palace.
Luo Li lightly nodded his head. From the looks of it, Mu Chen should have obtained this Lesser Divine Art from the Divine Wood Palace. Furthermore, from the looks of it, he had actually managed to cultivate it.
"Although the might of a Divine Art is pretty good, it requires time to use. I'm afraid that the puppet won't give him that time." Wen Qingxuan said.
Judging from its previous performance, the War Avatar possessed extremely rich combat experience, and it did not fear anything.
It didn't have any emotions. Therefore, it could only rely on its battle instincts to attack.
But sometimes, existences that relied on their instincts to fight were even more terrifying.
Buzz! Buzz!
The dark-green radiance was like an ocean as it rippled around Mu Chen's body.
A huge turquoise whirlpool spun rapidly above his palm, and at the edge of the whirlpool,
It was as if faint traces had been left in the air.
A purple light flashed in the puppet's eyes. Obviously, it sensed danger from the green vortex in Mu Chen's hand.
Thus, it did not hesitate.
With a clench of its hand, the black spear behind it shot over and landed in its hand. In the next instant, it once again shot out like a bolt of lightning.
Whoosh!
The body of the spear vibrated and cut through the air. At the tip of the spear, a black light lingered.
It was incomparably sharp.
Just as Wen Qingxuan had expected, the puppet did not wait for Mu Chen to completely unleash this killer weapon.
Instead, he attacked without hesitation, wanting to kill Mu Chen in advance.
The battle puppet was too fast. In a flash, it appeared in front of Mu Chen, its spear tip pointing straight at Mu Chen's heart.
The black spear glow rapidly enlarged in Mu Chen's eyes, while a glint flickered within his eyes. This glint contained a sliver of ferocity.
Chi!
The spear glow swept over.
Unexpectedly, Mu Chen did not make any attempt to dodge, nor did he put up any form of defence. Instead, he abruptly extended his palm out. Black lightning violently flickered on his palm. His arm seemed to have turned as bright as silver at this moment.
Creak!
The instant the spear tip pierced through, Mu Chen's palm grabbed onto the sharp spear tip. An ear-piercing creaking sound rang out. Then, scarlet blood continuously dripped from Mu Chen's palm.
Even though Mu Chen's Lightning God Body had reached the Penta Rune Lightning Body, he was still unable to disregard such a powerful attack from the puppet.
Outside the Spiritual Treasure Mountain, a series of exclamations rang out. Many people's faces changed. No one expected Mu Chen to use his palm to receive such a powerful attack from the puppet. Wasn't he afraid of losing an arm?
"There's enough time now."
Luo Li said in an indifferent tone. However, Wen Qingxuan still saw the young girl's slender eyebrows slightly twitch.
"Quite decisive." Wen Qingxuan nodded her head and evaluated.
Mu Chen's blood-dripping hand tightly grabbed onto the sharp spear tip as intense pain radiated from his palm. The chilling and sharp force seemed to want to shatter his entire arm. However, it was fortunate that he had pushed his Lightning God's Physique to its limits. At this moment, his arm had become the strongest part of his entire body. If not, his entire arm would have been shattered into pieces by the berserk spear glint in an instant.
"Boom!"
On his right palm, a huge emerald vortex began to rapidly distort. Mu Chen looked at the puppet in front of him and suddenly smiled. He softly said, "Please have a taste of the good stuff of your Divine Wood Palace."
"Lesser Divine Art, Divine Wheel of Heavenly Wood!"
A cold voice resounded in Mu Chen's heart.
Buzz!
The emerald vortex crazily distorted. The high-speed rotation actually tore space apart. The edge of the vortex also began to solidify. In the end, it turned into a huge green wood light wheel that was nearly a hundred feet wide. The edge of the light wheel was filled with ferocious sawteeth. Because of the high-speed rotation, there seemed to be a serene light circulating at the edge.
An indescribable sharp aura was quietly emitted.
Mu Chen's gaze was eerily cold. His blood-stained hand was still tightly grabbing onto the tip of the spear. Shortly after, his hand abruptly clenched down. The ferocious-looking sawtooth light wheel that would make one's blood run cold turned into an azure light as it tore through space with a rustle. It appeared above the puppet's head and flew down.
The green light carried a sharpness that could cut through anything as it swept down. The undefendable aura caused everyone outside the Spiritual Treasure Mountain to hold their breath. They knew that if it was hit by this terrifying attack, even if the puppet was made of metal, it would be instantly cut into two.
Swoosh!
The speed of the green wood light wheel was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it appeared above the head of the puppet. However, just as it was about to sweep past the top of the puppet's head, a dazzling black light suddenly erupted from its body. On its back, a pair of metal-like wings suddenly shot out.
Its metal wings suddenly flapped, and its body began to spin.
It disappeared in a strange manner.
Swoosh!
The green wood light wheel swept through the air and shot into the ground. There was no trace of an explosion on the ground.
It only left behind an extremely long and slender mark. That mark was incomparably smooth, but it seemed as though there was no end to it. The smooth part of the mark was emitting a terrifying penetrating power.
Mu Chen's sure-kill attack.
It actually missed.
Outside the Spiritual Treasure Mountain, the hearts of all the teams violently pounded at this moment.
That intense battle had unknowingly attracted their attention. When they saw that Mu Chen's perfect attack was still avoided, they felt as though their punches had missed. It was extremely unbearable.
"What a pity."
Someone sighed in a low voice.
Mu Chen's previous attack had been executed perfectly.
However, no one had expected that the puppet still had a hidden card. How could it still be a puppet? It was simply more terrifying than a warrior who had experienced hundreds of battles.
Obviously, after losing this opportunity, Mu Chen's chances of winning were extremely low.
The chances of winning would be extremely low.
Xu Huang and the others' faces were somewhat pale.
Wen Qingxuan also sighed softly. Only Luo Li.
It was still quiet.
Under the countless regretful gazes, Mu Chen stood at his original position as a smear of paleness flashed across his face. He swept his gaze around. The silhouette of the puppet had already disappeared, but Mu Chen could sense a strand of black line shuttling back and forth. However, the speed was too fast, to the point that even he couldn't keep up with it.
Even within the First Grade Spirit Disaster, the puppet's strength could be considered as one that was hard to deal with.
The muscles in Mu Chen's entire body tensed up, like a fully pulled bowstring. He could sense the chilling killing intent that was vaguely coming from the surrounding space. He knew that the next move that the puppet would unleash would be an astonishing killing move.
Mu Chen slowly closed his eyes. He could feel the flow of the wind in the outside world. Thereafter, the Spiritual Energy that revolved around him started to retract, bit by bit. He had actually removed all of his defences.
Looking at his actions, even Wen Qingxuan's face slightly changed. In this state, if the puppet were to find an opening in Mu Chen's defence, it would definitely be an earth-shattering attack. That attack would probably not allow Mu Chen to turn the tables.
"What is he doing?
Is he courting death? "Wang Zhong and the rest were also stunned as they looked at this scene with their brows tightly knitted together.
Wu Yingying's gaze was also fixed on that figure as she clenched her teeth and said, "That bastard, why did he suddenly become a fool?"
Wuuuu.
The sound of the wind seemed to have become a little hurried on the platform. There were only a few people that could sense that blurry figure. It was so much so that even with Wang Zhong and Wu Yingying's strength, they could only vaguely sense a black light. However, they couldn't sense the direction of that figure.
Wuuu!
The sound of the wind became even more hurried. It was as if there was a faint sound of air exploding in that instant.
Before Mu Chen, an invisible ripple spread out as a black figure appeared before him as if it had teleported. Two of its fingers were bent as an extremely sharp Spiritual Energy surged. It was like a cold dagger that was emitting dense killing intent as it pointed towards the centre of Mu Chen's brows.
This attack was too sudden and too ferocious. At this distance, even a Spirit Disaster expert wouldn't be able to dodge it.
A trace of blood seeped out from the centre of Mu Chen's brows due to the gale.
"It's over." The faces of Xu Huang and the rest turned pale.
The rest also sighed in pity.
Wen Qingxuan clenched her jade-like hands as fine veins surfaced on her snow-white skin. A golden light uncontrollably surged in her hand.
The gale of the puppet's fingers was already close to the centre of Mu Chen's brows. In the next instant, it would pierce through his head.
However, it was also at this instant that Mu Chen's tightly shut eyes suddenly opened. There wasn't the slightest trace of panic in his black pupils. Instead, there was a smear of coldness and ridicule as if he was looking at his prey.
Under countless gazes, his hand suddenly formed a seal.
Boom!
The ground beneath his feet suddenly trembled. In the next instant, a jade-green lustre abruptly burst out from the ground. It was like a light blade as it flew towards Mu Chen, passing through the puppet's body.
The puppet's body suddenly froze as the terrifying gale that was gathered at its fingertips instantly dissipated.
Tap.
Its finger tapped on the centre of Mu Chen's brows. However, its strength had completely dissipated as its body had already been split into two. The split was as smooth as a mirror.
In the sky, the ferocious green-wood light wheel trembled as it slowly dissipated.
Looking at the puppet that had lost its lustre, Mu Chen faintly smiled as he softly said, "This attack is the real deal."
