Chapter 135 - Celestial Pillar (1/2)
The gigantic beast swallowed Meng Chuan; he was constantly sucked down the black stormy vortex.
After a while, he detected solid ground with his perception domain. He used his movement technique, silently landed, then looked around warily.
Master said that this is Archean Mountain’s most important treasured land. Meng Chuan scanned his surroundings carefully. He wants me to obtain a powerful opportunity, but where is the opportunity?
A faint white fog covered his surroundings. As the fog wafted about, he could see vague outlines of pillars that reached towards the heavens!
Meng Chuan looked around him. These towering pillars were everywhere. Every pillar was equidistant from him.
There are a total of 12 pillars. All of them reach great heights, and they are arranged in a huge circle. Meng Chuan took a look at the ground. The ground was made of a special black rock. He had never seen it before in the outside world.
Dong!
Meng Chuan kicked the ground.
In the outside world, a crater over 100 feet wide would be produced if he exerted a little strength into his kick! However, the block rock trembled slightly but remained undamaged. The ground wasn’t even chipped.
Where is the opportunity? Meng Chuan’s perception domain allowed him to see more than the naked eye. However, he did not discover any hidden opportunities within 200 feet of where he stood.
The most eye-catching things here are the 12 pillars. I’ll take a look at them first. Meng Chuan walked towards one of the pillars cautiously.
Suddenly, Meng Chuan saw red fog rise from the ground up ahead. Red fog rose and gathered, forming a red-robed man. The red-robed man had killing intent in his eyes while he looked at Meng Chuan. He charged at Meng Chuan.
It has no life. It’s formed by special forces. Meng Chuan’s two-hundred-foot domain easily saw through the figure.
Swoosh.
He instantly struck out with his saber, slicing through the red-robed man.
His strength is equivalent to a newly-advanced G.o.dfiend. He’s weak. Meng Chuan calmly looked at the red-robed man. The red-robed man’s figure turned back into the red fog—which began permeating the surroundings.
Red fog rose from the ground and condensed one red-robed figure after another. Hundreds appeared at the same time, and more were being produced.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
A large number of red-robed men charged at Meng Chuan. They were varied in build, some big and tall, others thin and short. Some ran fast while others ran slow. Some were bare-handed, while others held all kinds of weapons.
Humph. Meng Chuan stood where he was and waited for the red-robed men to reach him before he made his move.
He transformed into a bolt of lightning and moved bizarrely. He pa.s.sed through the red-robed figures, and his saber struck them silently. Meng Chuan was using his fastest move—Extreme Yin Stance! The Extreme Yin Stance was a variation of the Heart Saber Stance. It ignored the Yin-Yang Transformation and pursued speed instead. It was very suitable for killing weaker opponents.
His saber struck out silently. With one slash, he could slice through three to four red-robed men. Following that, he used his movement technique before slas.h.i.+ng at two red-robed men horizontally.
The saber kept changing direction silently.
In the blink of an eye, over 100 red-robed men were sliced apart and transformed into red fog, causing the surrounding fog to grow thicker.
Oh? Meng Chuan immediately realized that his protective Quintessential Essence could no longer withstand the dense red fog. It instantly seeped into his body and his sea of consciousness.
The red fog didn’t affect his body; it affected his consciousness. He had the urge to go crazy.
With a thought, his Essence Soul blocked the red fog, allowing him to maintain his lucidity.
The number of red-robed men is increasing. Meng Chuan noticed that he wasn’t in a favorable position. The more he killed, the more red-robed men appeared. The red-robed men’s strength was increasing as well.
After Meng Chuan killed over 1000 red-robed men, there were even sharpshooters among the red-robed men! They shot from afar; their arrows were so terrifying that he didn’t dare use his body to block them.
The red-robed men are growing stronger. A few of them are approaching the strength of a Great Solar G.o.dfiend. Meng Chuan was secretly alarmed. He continued using his movement technique. He was able to control the battlefield, ensuring that only a small number of red-robed men could attack him simultaneously.
This fog… Meng Chuan could still withstand the red-robed men’s onslaught since his speed was comparable to that of a Regis G.o.dfiend. If he wanted to escape, they wouldn’t be able to catch up. He controlled the flow of the battle, easily spitting them into small groups before slaying them! However, the thick red fog’s impact on his sea of consciousness was constantly increasingly. His Essence Soul struggled, allowing a sliver of the red fog to enter his sea of consciousness.
Meng Chuan even felt his heart burning with madness.
