Chapter 624 - 261: Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Heaven, Infinite Tyrant Body

Chen Ping shot forward like the wind and lightning, leaving torrential rain in his wake.

A sudden tremor shook his heart, and he looked up to see, far ahead, a blazing sun crashing down with a rumble.

Even from a distance, he could sense the intense fire energy emanating from it.

"The Sun and Moon Ring, it’s amazing that the spiritual artifact was used in an instant; Senior Sister is in danger."

Chen Ping’s Dragon Essence surged, and the True Dragon Dharma Body sensed his rage and killing intent, letting out a dragon’s roar that shattered the air before him, increasing its speed.

He knew that if Han Xiaoru didn’t care about the Essence depletion, she could only execute three attacks with the spiritual artifact. It was only recently that this senior sister had achieved Perfection in Essence, Qi, and Spirit, consolidating her Divine Sense to step half into the Divine Martial Realm.

However, the power of this spiritual artifact was questionable.

If one exceeded their level to control it, they could only utilize basic attacks, without unleashing its full might.

For instance, if the artifact’s full power attack had a strength of ten.

Then, Han Xiaoru could only use two to three points of it. Against ordinary experts, she might hold for a while, but against a Mid-Stage or Late-Stage Divine Martial opponent, victory would be difficult, and her life could be at risk.

This was precisely why Chen Ping was rushing there.

Back then, when Daoist Mingcheng used this spiritual artifact, it did reach the basic attack power of the Divine Martial Realm, but Chen Ping, relying on physical strength, endured some injuries but still withstood the assault and killed his opponent.

This shows that for those with insufficient cultivation, a spiritual artifact isn’t enough to rely on, useful only as a supplement.

But Han Xiaoru clearly uses it as her primary offensive method, starting with the Sun and Moon Ring.

What does this prove?

It proves that her opponent is so formidable that even this fearless senior sister does not believe her own strength is capable of threatening even a hair of the opponent.

Simply put, the gap in cultivation is too wide.

She can only use the spiritual artifact to buy time and wait for rescue.

A thousand thoughts and countless considerations raced through his mind in just an instant.

Chen Ping saw that he was getting closer to the point where the blinding flames were falling.

He even sensed a powerful evil aura, burning like a torch, filling the space for miles ahead.

This aura was even more powerful than his own.

"Late-Stage Divine Martial."

Chen Ping squinted slightly, quickly building a sharp Sword Qi.

"Come down now, there’s no way through."

Amidst the faint blood light, a streak of crimson suddenly emerged from the dense black air.

A silhouette appeared in mid-air ahead.

This person was clad in flaming red armor, holding a curved blade with fangs, exuding ominous vibes. With extremely thin lips and knife-like eyes, his age was indiscernible, appearing both middle-aged and quite old.

The most eye-catching aspect wasn’t his malevolent appearance nor his swift flight but the enormous mouth behind him, blotting out the sun and sky.

His Dharma Body was a large serpent.

The serpent stretched miles long, coiling and twisting, its scales gleaming a blood-red hue.

With its mouth open, it let out a piercing hiss that hurt the eardrums and inexplicably stirred up a sense of irritation.

When the snake opened its mouth to suck in,

the entire sky and earth seemed to vanish in front.

It felt like being thrust into space, facing an all-consuming void before him.

Countless trees, stones, Spiritual Qi, and air around him burst and flew rapidly toward that gigantic black hole.

Even before getting close, they were shredded into the tiniest particles of Vitality.

Chen Ping, propelling the True Dragon Dharma Body forward at great speed, suddenly found his pace nearly doubling, not because his cultivation had increased, but due to an uncontrollable force pulling him, Dharma Body included, toward it, threatening to shred him into pieces.

"Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Heaven Technique."

Chen Ping sensed the mild suppression of his Dragon Essence and perceived the seemingly infinite power of the opponent’s move, discerning its nature immediately.

After the death of the mastermind Situ Yun behind the Wind and Cloud List, the Golden Opportunities he provided hadn’t brought Chen Ping much substantial benefit, but calling them entirely worthless felt unconvincing.

Merely relying on some of Situ Yun’s bizarre insights about this realm could offset the value of Venerable Yuxiao’s two spiritual artifacts.

Chen Ping also understood that the best Dharma Body for practicing the "Ten Thousand Beasts Devouring Heaven Technique" was snake and python types. Although the Dharma Bodies of bears, tigers, lions, or great eagles weren’t completely unsuitable, perfecting the Heaven-Swallowing Python Dharma Body and then wielding this technique would leave opponents of the same level utterly trapped, unable to escape.

This person’s immediate strike was a kill move, his cultivation had even reached Late-Stage Divine Martial, at least the Divine Martial Seventh Layer. Where did such a master emerge, and there was more than one.

Having seen the opponent’s technique, Chen Ping’s mind acted instinctively; a flash of color appeared between his brows, and for the first time, he mobilized his Divergent Soul Power with his soul’s dual forms. All the Soul Power spun and howled, transforming with a swoosh into a thin, seven-colored light cone hanging mid-air.

This seven-colored Soul Power was entirely unaffected by the pitch-black Heaven-Swallowing Magical Power, seeming to exist on another plane. Once it emerged, it locked onto the Blood Armor Man’s Divine Sense Sea between the brows.

"Crack..."

On an inaudible level, Sheqing’s brain suddenly throbbed with intense pain, as if a wild thunder had exploded; momentarily, his vision whitened and dizziness overwhelmed him, leaving him completely unaware of his whereabouts or what he was doing.
