Just like before, when she and Tsukuyomi teamed up, yet were nearly killed by this guy’s single strike. In fact, if it weren’t for Tsukuyomi using his life to block it,
both of them would have died from that strike.
It was because this guy’s move, unleashed with the ’Foundation of the Divine Throne,’ contained the power of the Divine Throne, and its dimension was already different from theirs.
All their methods were hardly able to make an impact, like ants on a two-dimensional plane unable to effectively harm a three-dimensional human.
On the contrary, a human in three dimensions can casually crush an ant; that is the gap.
But now.
She used the ’Power of the Incomplete Divine Throne’ containing the High Celestial Plain, and no matter how incomplete it was, it still contained the power of the Divine Throne. How could this guy only be injured and not even severely injured?
"Your punch..."
Amaterasu’s eyes flickered; just now, this guy’s punch surprisingly had the power to contend against the ’Divine Throne.’
"Ha!"
The injuries on Chi You instantly recovered. With his current attributes, unless he’s killed in one blow, he can recover at any time.
As for his ’Heaven-Slaying Fist,’ ever since returning from the Battle of Zhulu, he knew where the difference between a True Immortal and a Human Immortal lay, as he had experienced the power of a True Immortal.
He had long been pondering over how to temporarily counter the power of a True Immortal without having become one himself.
Although he hasn’t fully understood the ’Fire Cloud Grotto,’ he attached a portion of the ’Human Emperor’ law he comprehended to his Heaven-Slaying Fist.
"Continue!"
Chi You snorted coldly and continued to attack Amaterasu.
Unfortunately, [Flying Dragon Cloud-Seeking Hand] doesn’t have much effect on these Human Immortals now, otherwise this guy would know what it means to be wrong.
Seeing Chi You attacking again, Amaterasu widened her eyes; she couldn’t believe she would lose to this guy in the High Celestial Plain.
...
Sitting in the aircraft heading to the Wolf Calamity Abyss, Shen Fei seemed to sense Chi You’s words; he had been focusing on upgrading the Saintess lately, and indeed Chi You should be enhanced.
"The Flying Dragon Cloud-Seeking Hand, even against the Drought Fiend’s incarnation, had some effect, known as a divine skill that ignores defense, but as Chi You’s enemies grew stronger and stronger,"
"this divine skill of attack had no effect whatsoever."
Shen Fei frowned slightly, still growing too fast, otherwise, this ability would have very special effects whether dealing with Professionals or Abyssal Creatures.
"It seems it really needs an upgrade."
Happily, there’s still a slot available, and Shen Fei directly applied the Term Summoning Spirit to Chi You’s [Flying Dragon Cloud-Seeking Hand].
[Select ’Flying Dragon Cloud-Seeking Hand’]
[Summoning Spirit Task:
①: Learn three [Tier Three of Legend] thief skills (Legendary Tier Flying Dragon Cloud-Seeking)
②: Learn six thief skills of [Tier Five of Legend] quality (Legendary Tier Five Stealing Heaven and Changing Days)]
"Five Tier Five of Legend thief skills..." Shen Fei had Little Pu search through the Nine Realms, and indeed there were.
There were only two books, one Tier Five of Legend and one Tier Six of Legend.
Luckily, he doesn’t have any thief-type Summoned Beasts under his command; otherwise, they would’ve been used long ago.
However, with Shen Fei’s current status and position, as long as he mentions it in the Breaking Abyss Army, it won’t take long to gather them.
"We’ve arrived."
Shen Fei overlooked the massive military base below, much larger than the one in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Insects since the Wolf Calamity Abyss should be the only abyss with a Tenth-Tier True God presence in West China.
The defense difficulty of an abyss with a Tenth-Tier presence compared to one without is worlds apart.
It’s not only because of the Tenth-Tier; high-tier Abyssal Creatures often have the means and ability to forcibly elevate lower-tier Abyssal Creatures.
Thus, whether in terms of the intensity and breadth of attacks, an abyss with a Tenth Tier presence will be significantly greater, and is also where Wu Xia places the most emphasis on defense.
As for the previous Corpse Stiff Abyss, the Central China Military Region even directly established the military district outside the Corpse Stiff Abyss.
The aircraft landed, and with the passcode provided by Ye Xiu, at the defense stronghold in West China, only the passcode is needed as you approach, with no further identity verification necessary.
Shen Fei and the Moon God stepped out of the aircraft, and soon, someone came to greet them, someone familiar in fact.
"Lin Sword Emperor."
It was none other than the Mad Sword Emperor, Lin Feng, who had previously taken Bai Qingzhao to study at Imperial University.
Of course, Shen Fei wouldn’t directly call Lin Feng the Mad Sword Emperor.
Naturally, he called him Lin Sword Emperor.
"No need for formalities, just call me Little Lin." Lin Feng hurriedly waved his hands, though he felt a bit emotional. Not much time had passed since he last saw Shen Fei.
On this second meeting, both his strength and status paled in comparison to Shen Fei.
In terms of status, he’s only an Emperor, and not even part of the Breaking Abyss Army system. Perhaps he has some fame in West China but is scarcely known throughout Wu Xia.
After all, a Ninth Tier is indeed rare, but Wu Xia is vast, and while a Ninth Tier is important, it isn’t critically important; he can’t influence the grand scheme of Wu Xia.
In terms of strength, he had learned from his master that several Tenth Tiers had died at Shen Fei’s hands, and the recent god battle illuminating the skies was said to be caused by Marshal Meng and Shen Fei’s Summoned Beasts.
And two Tenth Tiers died.
Hearing his master, Lin Feng felt like Tenth Tiers had become as common as cabbages.
Shen Fei could kill one whenever he wanted.
"My master is already awaiting your arrival in the Wolf Calamity Abyss, but due to guarding duties, he couldn’t personally come to greet you."
The two walked side by side.
"Senior Sword Immortal guards the Wolf Abyss for Wu Xia, a tremendous contribution; how could we let a senior come out to greet us?" Shen Fei said with a smile.
As they entered the Wolf Calamity Abyss, Shen Fei asked, "Are there three identical Abyssal Emperors in the Wolf Calamity Abyss?"
"Yes, they’re all on the fourth level; there are six emperors there, and these Three-headed Wolf Emperors are the undisputed leaders of the Wolf Abyss. They possess special means, allowing them to merge into one Three-headed Wolf at crucial moments.
According to my master, when the three wolves merge, their strength can touch the Tenth Tier."
Merging into one, becoming a Tenth-Tier True God?
That indeed is quite something!
Shen Fei and Lin Feng directly entered the fifth level, much like the Corpse Stiff Abyss, with only a solitary city defending it. Shen Fei saw a gigantic sword lying horizontally across the dim sky above this city.
The sword’s tip pointed at the distance, where a massive blood moon opposed it.
Countless ghostly white Sword Qi clashed with the bloody moonlight, endlessly surging.
"Greetings, Senior Sword Immortal."
Shen Fei finally met the long-heard Tenth Tier, Gongsun Manor.
Compared to the Water God Yu Jiang of the Corpse Stiff Abyss, Gongsun Manor was quite famous, chiefly because the Sword Immortal Lineage often ventured out, and the Sword Immortal required the Lineage’s assistance in acquiring certain resources.
And Yu Jiang himself belonged to the Fang Family’s Tenth Tier; high-level individuals naturally knew, while lower levels only needed to know about the Fang Family.
So naturally, not everyone needs to know.
