The void exploded, rumbling and booming...
A three-meter-long gun slashed down diagonally, instantly blasting the ground and trees into the air.
Zhongli flew out in an instant, snapping or uprooting large trees in half.
Chen Miaomiao's pupils dilated, her eyes turned red, and she fell silent.
The hundreds of Gu worms inside its body, numbering in countless numbers, sensed their master's rage as he wanted to devour everything, and immediately went berserk.
One by one, they rushed out through spiritual energy wormholes generated from Chen Miaomiao's facial features and skin.
They want to appease their master's anger and will devour anything that provokes it.
Suddenly, the world changed drastically, and strange phenomena appeared everywhere.
The bright moon in the sky is turning pitch black; that's a lunar eclipse.
The clouds are raining down a magical acid rain, instantly melting soil and rocks—it's a magical acid poison, a hundred million times more potent than concentrated sulfuric acid. (This actually exists.)
The forest rises into a colorful mist, giving rise to all sorts of chaotic phenomena; this is the Illusionary Dream Gu.
A strange melody resounded throughout the forest, causing rust to grow and everything to decay; it was the Rust Sound Gu.
These are just one type of the many types of Gu worms.
The Great God of War was facing a collective attack from the Gu worms.
They continued to use the yellow shield to isolate everything.
With a wave of his hand, the ground gun returned to his grasp.
"Those who dare to offend my majesty will suffer the consequences."
Now, it is time for you to set off.
The Quartet made its bold statement, and the Great God of War stepped forward, ready to display his unparalleled martial arts skills.
Suddenly his legs buckled and he knelt on the ground, his spear and celestial sword falling from his hands.
The yellow shield behind him was teetering on the brink of collapse.
Xuan Kai looked at the Heavenly Blade, Earth Spear, and Yellow Shield with a lack of confidence.
What's going on with you guys?
"Is it time already?"
Tian Dao: "I should be asking you that. Why did you suddenly expend so much power?"
Xuan Kai: "I don't know?"
Di Kun: "What do we do now? Are we trying to merge?"
Huang Dun: "Melt my ass, I can't defend anymore?"
The gleam of the yellow shield quickly dimmed.
The Gu worms, which were isolated outside, were desperately trying to burrow inside.
The sonic waves from the celestial demonic acid surrounding the area, along with attacks from various Gu worms, are still coming.
Even with its superior defense that allows it to overcome higher-level enemies, it's about to collapse.
Chen Miaomiao, with her hair disheveled and her body riddled with spiritual energy wormholes, resembled an insect nest.
Seeing the Great God of War suddenly disperse, he raised his hand and clenched it.
The gnawing of millions of Gu worms concentrates on one point, instantly piercing through the barrier.
A massive tide of Gu worms surged in rapidly.
The Heavenly Blade floated in the air, relentlessly slashing at the Gu worms, who quickly begged for mercy.
"No, no, we surrender, we surrender."
The earth-spear tried to break through the encirclement, but was blocked by layers of Gu worms that gnawed at its spirit.
"Quickly, make the insects stop! I'm willing to submit and become your weapon, please don't eat me."
Xuan Kai, displaying superb martial arts skills and relentlessly eliminating the Gu worms, sighed softly.
"Looks like our brotherhood is over?"
As he spoke, he looked at the yellow shield on the ground, which had been devoured of its spiritual energy due to the premature exhaustion of its power, and shook his head.
On the other side, Zhong Li, who had been sent flying a thousand meters away, wiped the blood from his mouth and sat up, clutching his aching chest.
"Is this the strength of a peak upper-level cultivator?"
There was simply no time to react; the difference was too great.
The Great God of War's attack was too fast.
Zhongli was hit before he could even hide in the demon coffin.
Even the Tears of the Void were pierced.
Fortunately, at the last moment, the talisman that Zhongli had exchanged for took effect, sacrificing himself for an attack.
Otherwise, he might have been seriously injured.
As for death, he certainly won't, since he still has life essence.
Fortunately, the ability of Kotoba to deceive everyone indefinitely was successfully activated.
The power of heaven and earth, plus the consumption of one's own spiritual power, is barely enough.
Otherwise, that attack would have been for nothing.
At that moment, a golden bolt of lightning flashed, revealing Zhang Jinglan, who looked worried and anxious, with faint tears glistening in the corners of her eyes.
"Zhongli, are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere? I have some medicine here."
Zhang Jinglan squatted down beside Zhong Li, nervously touching him to see where he was injured.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine."
I still have ways to save my life.
Zhong Li raised his hand to comfort the nervous Zhang Jinglan.
"call!
"It's good that you're alright. I thought you were going to be stabbed."
At this moment, a series of booming sounds and unusual celestial phenomena erupted from the battlefield of the Divine Society.
Zhong Li's expression immediately turned serious. He jumped up, grabbed Zhang Jinglan, and ran back.
"We need to go back quickly; it's too dangerous to leave Miaomiao alone."
You really are something, not even bringing Miaomiao with you when you went out.
What if something goes wrong?
Fortunately, he used the Words of Infinite Deception technique, so the danger shouldn't be too great.
"Uh!"
Zhang Jinglan was a little stunned when she was suddenly scolded.
She came to rescue people, and then got scolded; she was so wronged.
Chapter 58: Mission Completed, Chen Miaomiao's Heart Resolved, Preparations for Creating Heroic Spirits Completed.
Actually, it's not that Zhang Jinglan isn't worried about Chen Miaomiao's safety.
As a major power in the Celestial Empire, the supernatural beings sent out for training are all treasures.
Therefore, when they go out to gain experience, they bring with them many things to protect their lives.
It can be said that as long as it is not an extremely powerful being who has broken through the limits, they can all attack.
They are absolutely safe.
As for those who have broken through the limits of ultimate power, Sakura simply doesn't exist.
They can relax and have fun without any worries.
When Zhong Li pulled Zhang Jinglan back to the battlefield.
Then, the head of the self-inflicted child floated in the sky, fearing the Gu worms below.
Chen Miaomiao's body was covered in spiritual energy wormholes, like a worm nest, which she used to control the Gu worms.
As for the distant ones, they were overwhelmed by a large number of Gu worms, which had devoured the four spirits so much that they could not move.
At that moment, a system notification came through.
[Ding, supernatural quest completed: Heavenly Blade, Earthly Spear, Mystic Armor, Yellow Shield.]
[Reward: 16 Spiritual Sources.]
Upon seeing the notification, Zhongli knew that the four supernatural beings were doomed.
But Chen Miaomiao showed no sign of stopping.
Zhongli frowned slightly and walked forward.
"Miaomiao, that's enough. The supernatural thing is dead. Stop now."
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Chen Miaomiao trembled and turned around excitedly.
Tears streamed continuously from his green eyes, and his pale cheeks bore obvious tear stains.
"Brother Zhong, are you alright?"
I thought, I thought... Waaaaah!
In the end, Chen Miaomiao couldn't help but burst into tears.
Chen Miaomiao felt very regretful when Zhongli was attacked by the Great God of War.
If she had known, she shouldn't have suggested that Zhongli form a team.
The difference between intermediate and advanced levels, and between lower and intermediate levels, is a factor of a hundred.
Bringing along a superior supernatural self-sacrificing child doesn't guarantee safety.
The differences lie in reaction speed, the intensity of spiritual techniques, and the quality of spiritual energy.
"Alright, stop crying. If you keep crying, you'll turn into a little kitten and won't look pretty anymore."
Besides, I have plenty of ways to save my life.
Zhong Li gently stroked Chen Miaomiao's soft, beautiful hair, offering comfort in a tender voice.
If there were no instructions on how to protect oneself, Zhongli would not have rashly accepted the mission from his superiors.
Comforted, Chen Miaomiao felt much better and even had the energy to argue back.
"I...I won't turn into a little kitten..."
But halfway through her speech, Chen Miaomiao suddenly thought of something.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw that the backs and palms of my hands, and even my arms, were filled with spiritual energy wormholes.
Her face turned pale instantly, and she quickly turned around, covering her face with her green hair.
"Brother Zhong, don't look at me, I don't look good right now."
"Don't look!"
Chen Miaomiao knows all too well what kind of person she is now.
Calling it a monster is not an exaggeration at all.
His entire body was covered in black wormholes formed from spiritual energy.
It looks like a person with countless tiny holes on their body.
Even someone with trypophobia would be terrified to death upon seeing this.
Although it wasn't a real hole, it was still quite terrifying.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, she will not fully activate the Gu worms.
