Chapter 3169: The World Within the Body
At this moment, a deafening rumble rang out from the bottom of the tree hole. Everyone standing at the bottom felt an extremely powerful pulse of energy sweep through the surroundings.
The defensive formations that Mo Tianyun and the Rain Abbess previously cast down outside had already shattered. A total of six Xuanhuang beasts that radiated with tremendous presences rapidly approached the tree hole in the Heaven-splitting Divine Tree.
“Oh no, there are Xuanhuang beasts attacking!” Jian Chen’s expression changed. Gazing at the Rain Abbess and Mo Tianyun who were still cultivating, his heart immediately sank.
The Xuanhuang beasts bold enough to approach the Heaven-splitting Divine Tree were obviously extremely powerful. They possessed the battle prowess of mid Grand Primes at the very least.
On top of that, while their strength had increased drastically after absorbing the Heaven-splitting Divine Force, they were still powerless against Grand Prime Xuanhuang beasts.
Jian Chen had killed a phoenix that was equivalent to an Eighth to Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, but that was because he had the Rain Abbess and Mo Tianyun keeping it busy, giving him ample time to fuse the swords.
But right now, no one here could keep these Grand Prime Xuanhuang beasts busy!
On top of that, there was not just one Grand Prime Xuanhuang beast but a total of six.
The Grand Prime Xuanhuang beasts moved so quickly that they had absolutely no time to think. The six tremendous presences from outside had already arrived at the entrance to the tree hole.
In the next moment, a colossal peng appeared at the entrance. It flapped its colossal wings and plummeted at an unbelievable speed, heading straight for them.
Immediately, a violent storm of energy swept through the tree hole. Before the colossal peng had even approached them, Jian Chen and the others at the bottom of the tree hole felt a tremendous pressure well beyond anything they could resist.
Under the pressure, they all felt like they had sunken into mud. Even moving around became several times more strenuous.
The colossal peng was far too powerful. Even the two qilins of black and white that Jian Chen had encountered in the land of Yin and Yang were probably not as powerful as this colossal peng.
Right when the colossal peng was about to reach the bottom of the tree hole, Mo Tianyun’s eyes suddenly snapped open. He glared at the colossal peng sharply.
Their gazes met in an instant.
However, as soon as their gazes met, the colossal peng shuddered violently. An unprecedented sensation of fear welled up in its heart.
Simultaneously, the formation around Mo Tianyun exploded with a boom. He seemed to turn into a bolt of lightning, rushing into the air instantly with speed that Jian Chen was unable to capture with the senses of his soul. With his hands as a claw, he directly reached towards the colossal peng’s head.
Spurt!
Blood shot everywhere. Before Mo Tianyun’s hand, the colossal peng’s powerful body was as fragile as paper. His hand plunged deep into its head.
The colossal peng was in pain, letting out a miserable cry. Its enormous body struggled violently in the air, erupting with terrifying energy.
With a gentle shake of Mo Tianyun’s arm, an indescribably great power erupted, directly passing through his arm and entering the colossal peng’s head.
With a bang, the colossal peng’s head exploded mid-air. Its headless body stopped struggling before falling out of the air powerlessly.
In an instant, Mo Tianyun had easily slain a Xuanhuang beast even more powerful than the black and white qilins.
After killing the colossal peng, Mo Tianyun did not pause for even a split second. His presence surged as he brimmed with fighting spirit, rushing into the air and leaving the tree hole instantly.
Shortly afterwards, tremendous rumbles rang out from outside, coupled with the furious roars and miserable cries of Xuanhuang beasts.
Mo Tianyun had already become locked in battle with the five other Grand Prime Xuanhuang beasts.
In the tree hole, the colossal peng’s headless body fell down with a rain of blood.
Gazing at the falling corpse, Jian Chen felt extremely shocked inside. Such a powerful Xuanhuang beast had been slain so effortlessly?
The invincible strength that Mo Tianyun demonstrated renewed Jian Chen’s knowledge once again.
Before breaking through, Mo Tianyun was already very terrifying. Now, his strength had climbed to a whole new level. Without a doubt, it had become even more unfathomable.
Suddenly, the Immortal Devouring Orchid coiled around Jian Chen’s wrist swelled up instantly. In the blink of an eye, the Immortal Devouring Orchid that was still the size of a blade of grass reached several thousand metres wide. The colossal flower basically filled the entire tree hole.
The centre of the flower abruptly seemed to turn into a gaping mouth, swallowing the colossal peng in a single gulp.
“You can’t! You still can’t digest such a high level Xuanhuang beast yet! You’ll make yourself explode!” Jian Chen’s expression changed. The colossal peng was not a regular First or Second Heavenly Layer Grand Prime after all. Since it had just died, the energy in its body was still in an extremely active state. The risks were extremely great if it devoured the colossal peng right now. With the Immortal Devouring Orchid’s puny strength, it was very easy for it to blow itself up.
After all, the disparity in strength was far too great.
Unfortunately, Jian Chen was too late. The Immortal Devouring Orchid had already swallowed the colossal peng’s corpse whole. It was not just the corpse. The Immortal Devouring Orchid had even devoured the ruptured head and every single droplet of shed blood.
Afterwards, as if the Immortal Devouring Orchid had just done something not worthy mentioning, its magnificent and beautiful flower swayed about gently as its size rapidly shrunk, turning back into the size of a blade of grass in the blink of an eye. Then it coiled around Jian Chen’s wrist again.
Jian Chen’s eyes were filled with surprise. He immediately inspected the Immortal Devouring Orchid carefully. Only then did he discover in shock that a colossal space had appeared inside the Immortal Devouring Orchid at a certain point in time.
The colossal peng it had swallowed had not been digested immediately. Instead, it lay quietly in the space there.
Jian Chen was stunned. He studied the colossal space within the Immortal Devouring Orchid in a daze.
In his eyes, the space was like a true world. There was the manifestation of laws with the chains of order weaving around. It seemed like another universe.
“Another world has actually manifested within the Immortal Devouring Orchid?” Jian Chen felt extremely shocked. He gazed at the patterns on the Immortal Devouring Orchid. He could vaguely guess that this was perhaps due to the Heaven-splitting Divine Force.
It might have been much more than the Heaven-splitting Divine Force too. It might have been under the combined effects of the Heaven-splitting Divine Force, the Xuanhuang Qi, and even the Chaotic Force that had transformed the Immortal Devouring Orchid like this.
