Chapter 700: The Shock of Fang Gu
Chapter 700: The Shock of Fang Gu
"Good, let's not delay. Now that we've discovered the location, let's hurry there."
Vangwu Divine Lord didn't hide his excitement.
The sooner they could find the exit of the Endless Abyss, the better. Inviting Chen Mu to explore the depths of the Endless Abyss together was clearly the right decision. If he had searched with other Divine Lords, he didn't know how long it would take to find the location.
Chen Mu's demeanor remained calm, as for him, whether or not he left the Endless Abyss was not important. The only thing that slightly concerned him was finding the exit of the Endless Abyss, which might allow him to gain some insights into the Void Dao.
Breaking through the bottleneck of the Overlord was incredibly difficult.
To comprehend the complete Void Dao was a challenge beyond measure. Before entering the Source Realm, he couldn't even obtain the experience of the Mystic Fusion of the five Void Lineages from the System Panel.
Ordinary secret realms or manifestations of the void couldn't provide any insights into comprehending the complete Void Dao.
However, the Endless Abyss was different from ordinary secret realms.
After all, the Endless Abyss contained Hydromatic Power, making it one of the special regions closest to the Source Realm in terms of essential level. It also touched upon the realm of the Prime Source Dao, so if they could find the exit of the Endless Abyss, they might be able to further analyze the Void Dao by studying the changes in that weak point and the entire structure of the Endless Abyss.
Although he didn't need to rely on insights to break through the Overlord bottleneck, gaining some insights and experience from other sources could still improve his efficiency to some extent, allowing him to accumulate the one hundred million experience points required by the System Panel more quickly.
...
The Endless Abyss.
In the depths of the dimly lit area, a strange grayish-white region appeared in the void, giving off a sinister and weak feeling.
The grayish-white color extended outward, and as it did, it was gradually swallowed up by the darkness. This entire region seemed like a blemish growing within the Endless Abyss.
Furthermore,
Upon closer inspection, one could see that this grayish-white blemish was slowly disappearing over time. Despite its size of several million square li, at the current rate of disappearance, it would likely vanish completely within a hundred eras.
At this moment, in the distant darkness, two figures stood not far from the grayish-white region, as if they had just arrived, or perhaps they had been observing for a long time.
"The weak point of the Endless Abyss is indeed constantly changing. This weak point will likely disappear completely within a hundred eras, and then the Endless Abyss will generate a new weak point elsewhere."
Chen Mu gazed at the grayish-white region, his eyes gleaming with a faint glow as if he had grasped some of its mysteries. He spoke thoughtfully.
Vangwu Divine Lord also fell into contemplation, saying, "A hundred eras is not short, but it's not long either. It's indeed not easy for ordinary Nine Heaven Divine Lords to find the exit of the Endless Abyss."
Despite finding the location quickly after entering the deep region with Chen Mu, it was because they both belonged to the Void Lineage, and Chen Mu's control over the void far surpassed his own.
It was only after Chen Mu clearly pointed out the direction and led him forward for a long distance that he finally sensed the subtle changes in the void and confirmed the approximate direction and location of this 'weak point'.
If it were a Nine Heaven Divine Lord from the Creation School, it would be even more challenging.
In this situation, the deep region of the Endless Abyss was almost infinitely vast without a clear direction, making it like searching for a needle in a haystack. Relying on luck to find the exit was extremely difficult.
For this reason, the number of Nine Heaven Divine Lords who had successfully exited the Endless Abyss was not high, and they rarely revealed how they had managed to leave. Apparently, finding the exit through luck was not something worth boasting about.
Even fewer could find the exit through their own abilities, like him and Chen Mu.
However, just as Vangwu Divine Lord was about to marvel at the smoothness of their journey, he moved slightly closer to the grayish-white region, and his expression quickly changed, becoming grave.
Abyss Beasts!
Near the exit of the Endless Abyss, there were Abyss Beasts, and not just one!
Using his means of probing the void, Vangwu Divine Lord detected the presence of the Abyss Beasts ahead of time, and his heart skipped a beat. He immediately tried to conceal his presence and aura as much as possible, then cautiously moved closer. Soon, his face turned grim.
How could there be so many?!"
"It seems that leaving the Endless Abyss is not as easy as we thought."
Fangwu Divine Lord frowned, his expression extremely solemn.
At this moment, he dared not continue to approach, fearing that he would disturb the Abyss Beasts, and even at this distance, within his perception range, there were at least hundreds of Abyss Beasts gathered near the weak point of the grayish-white region!
These hundreds of Abyss Beasts, without a doubt, were all Nine Heavens Abyss Beasts, and such a large-scale gathering of Abyss Beasts naturally made Fangwu Divine Lord feel tense. Even though he was a Nine Heavens Deus of the Void Lineage, if he were not careful and became trapped in the encirclement of so many Abyss Beasts, it would be extremely difficult to escape, and there was a possibility of his true body falling.
Although,
He was not alone on this trip, and there was Chen Mu, who was stronger than him, by his side. However, the range of his perception was only a small area near the weak point of the grayish-white region.
According to the density of the Abyss Beasts' gathering, there were likely thousands, or at least hundreds, of Nine Heavens Abyss Beasts gathered near this weak point. This number was undoubtedly extremely terrifying!
Even Nine Heavens Perfection experts would have to flee, and Dual Pulse Perfection experts would likely struggle to confront them head-on!
Of course,
If it were indeed a Dual Pulse Perfection expert, even if they couldn't match the strength of thousands or hundreds of Nine Heavens Abyss Beasts, these Abyss Beasts would not pose a threat to them, and passing through the weak point to leave the Endless Abyss would still be easy.
"Mu Shenjun, there are many Abyss Beasts gathered here, and although your divine body is powerful, able to match a lineage's Perfection, if you and I were to force our way through, it would still be extremely dangerous. In my opinion, why don't you and I each use a Void Avatar to lure out a group of Abyss Beasts?"
After carefully examining the situation in front of him, Fangwu Divine Lord turned his gaze towards Chen Mu and suggested.
As a Nine Heavens Deus of the Void Lineage, he could naturally draw upon the power of the void and condense a Void Avatar, and Chen Mu undoubtedly had this ability as well. They could create two avatars as powerful as themselves.
By using two avatars to disturb the Abyss Beasts, they would undoubtedly be able to lure away a large group of them. Then, with their true bodies working together, they would still have a chance to break through and escape from the Endless Abyss.
However,
Upon hearing Fangwu Divine Lord's suggestion, Chen Mu, who had been observing and pondering the grayish-white region, turned back and shook his head slightly, saying calmly, "There's no need for such trouble."
Chen Mu took a step forward from behind, and with one step, he directly passed Fangwu Divine Lord and headed towards the weak point of the Endless Abyss, the grayish-white abnormal region.
It was also with this step that he did not conceal his aura, and it was immediately detected by the Abyss Beasts roaming near the grayish-white region. Instantly, a wave of ferocious and violent aura erupted in the void.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
In almost an instant, at least two or three hundred Abyss Beasts were startled, and one pair after another of vicious eyes turned from the depths of the void towards Chen Mu. Then, a wave of pressure spread towards Chen Mu, pressing down on him.
The Fangwu Divine Lord behind him was startled when he saw this scene, and he knew that Chen Mu had a perfect divine body and was much stronger than ordinary Nine Heavens experts. He could at least match the strength of a lineage's Perfection expert, but facing hundreds of Abyss Beasts, such a rash action, directly approaching with his true body, was a bit too reckless!
But,
Since Chen Mu had already rushed forward like this, he couldn't just stand by and do nothing. At this moment, he could only grit his teeth and follow Chen Mu forward, while also moving his mind to activate the vast power of the void, condensing a Void Avatar as powerful as himself. Both his true body and avatar erupted with a surging aura, ready to force their way through.
In front of them were hundreds of Nine Heavens Abyss Beasts, crossing the void and pressing down, while behind them was only Fangwu Divine Lord's true body and avatar. They seemed to be at a disadvantage, as if they would be swallowed up by the tide of Abyss Beasts in the next moment.
However, Chen Mu's expression did not change in the face of this situation.
He stood in the void, with mysterious and wonderful lights flowing around him, and he lightly raised his hand, palms together in front of him. He did not look at the hundreds of Abyss Beasts rushing towards him, but instead lowered his gaze to look at his own palm.
"With the void transforming the universe, and time condensing the cosmos, creating all things... this is the universe."
From the moment he entered the Eight Heavens, Chen Mu had a grand idea and goal in his heart. He used the Void Lineage as the foundation to create the initial form of the 'Universe' technique. After entering the Nine Heavens, he made the 'Universe' technique more complete, and then used the Creation Lineage to fill in its gaps and enhance its power. Finally, after comprehending time, he was able to complete this technique.
Void, Creation, and Time.
Although they weren't the complete and perfect three Original Great Paths, nor the perfectly fused Transcendent Other Shore Power, at the Nine Heavens stage, they had already reached a kind of perfection and balance. The three Great Paths and fifteen Mystic Arts were arranged in a four-four combination, forming an extremely complex and subtle sphere of light that hovered between Chen Mu's palms.
Buzz!
As Chen Mu's will stirred, his gaze finally turned forward, and the tiny, wondrous, and perfectly intricate sphere of light in his palms quietly disappeared. When it reappeared, it had transformed into a magnificent and awe-inspiring light, as if containing countless stars, and it swept over all the Abyss Beasts, covering them within!
Behind Chen Mu, Fanggu Divine Lord, who had followed him, couldn't help but stop in his tracks. He stood there, stunned, and in his line of sight, he saw the boundless void a million miles ahead, distorted in a way that was hard to describe. A large area seemed to have been forcibly torn away from the Endless Abyss, becoming an independent part, and hundreds of Abyss Beasts were enclosed within.
Then,
This distorted sphere, seemingly containing countless starry rivers and a brilliant universe, shattered silently, suddenly returning to nothingness. An indescribably terrifying power erupted from within, directly covering and crushing all the Abyss Beasts.
Fanggu Divine Lord watched in awe as hundreds of Nine Heavens Abyss Beasts, under this vast and boundless majestic power, collapsed and disintegrated one by one, turning into dust and vanishing into the void.
Hundreds of Abyss Beasts.
Annihilated in one move!
Chen Mu slowly lowered his hand, standing tall in the void, his gaze calm as he looked ahead, watching one Abyss Beast after another disintegrate. His heart was completely unmoved, and he even shook his head slightly.
"Too weak."
Abyss Beasts were inherently a bit weaker than Gods of the same level. Although Nine Heavens Abyss Beasts possessed the power of the Nine Heavens, their techniques were often crude and far less exquisite than true Nine Heavens Gods, relying purely on brute force to wield the Great Path.
The Abyss Beasts also possessed various Great Path Mystic Arts, but these arts were not thoroughly combined, failing to form the perfect 'Hydromatic Power', and thus, they lacked a higher level of strength compared to the strange beasts in Wuxiang City. The Abyss Beasts in the Endless Abyss were truly much weaker.
Even the weakest strange beasts in Wuxiang City could rival a Single Pulse Perfection.
But the Abyss Beasts,
Even someone of Fanggu Divine Lord's caliber could easily handle three or five of them.
A Single Pulse Perfection expert could face dozens of Abyss Beasts without much pressure, and a Dual Pulse Perfection expert could advance and retreat freely even when surrounded by thousands of them.
As for Chen Mu?
The Abyss Beasts no longer posed a threat to him.
This time, he had mainly used this move to test his techniques and validate his ideas. However, due to the Abyss Beasts' fragility, this move that annihilated hundreds of them, while seemingly impressive, did not achieve Chen Mu's original intention of testing the power of his techniques. At most, he could determine that with the power of the Three Lineages Great Perfection, the 'Cosmic Creation' move was several times stronger than when he was at Dual Pulse Perfection.
If he encountered a hunting team like the Blackstone Association again, he could easily wipe them out with his own strength, and few of them would escape, not even the Blackstone Divine Lord.
This was the power of the Three Lineages Great Perfection, invincible beneath the Overlord level.
In the void,
Chen Mu's single move killed hundreds of Abyss Beasts, clearing a large area, causing the nearby void to tremble.
Although the Abyss Beasts had low intelligence, those at the Nine Heavens level possessed some wisdom. At this moment, they were all shaken, their fierce eyes revealing shock. Even though chaotic and violent emotions still stirred within them, their survival instincts froze them in place, daring not to approach any further!
The entire void seemed frozen, and the path to the grayish-white area was unobstructed.
"Brother Fanggu, you can go now."
Seeing that the distant Abyss Beasts were not approaching, Chen Mu turned to Fanggu Divine Lord behind him and nodded slightly.
