721: Chapter 721 Crisis Arrives

The moment the seal was formed, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi for tens of thousands of miles around was instantly drained, compressed into a transparent Chaos divine seal.

In the next instant, the Chaos divine seal blasted forward, causing the fragile space to shatter into pieces as it struck the towering mountain range in the distance.

Boom!

With an earth-shattering explosion and debris flying across the sky, the originally towering mountain peak had already vanished without a trace.

At this moment, God Venerable Hunyuan, who was watching from outside the miniature planet, saw his pupils constrict and his fists clench involuntarily.

He could not help but feel shocked in his heart; to have comprehended the first form in such a short time had already far surpassed the former Empress Yaoguang.

Although he had already raised his expectations for the Saint-Grade Seven Profound Root, he was still shocked into silence.

However, God Venerable Hunyuan, still in a daze, suddenly came to his senses and discovered that Xiao Chen was already condensing the second form of the Chaos Art.

He saw him clench his hands into fists, the power of Origin circulating in his palms to create a flow of Chaos Qi, followed by a punch blasted outward.

A transparent fist qi shot out, piercing through the Void Realm three times before instantly penetrating the distant mountain range.

Bang!

A dull explosion reverberated within the mountain.

The next moment, the entire mountain shattered into pieces; rolling fine sand spilled out from the cracks as the mountain collapsed with a roar.

The second form, Star-Shattering Fist!

Its destructive power goes far beyond this; it can penetrate all physical defenses and directly shatter the target's core.

This includes shattering the interior of Magic Treasures. Moreover, the stronger the shell defense of the Magic Treasure, the more intense the vibration of the Star-Shattering Fist becomes.

At this moment, God Venerable Hunyuan was frozen in place, muttering to himself, "No wonder you always wanted to borrow the chaos stele back then!"

He could see that the kid before him had clearly controlled the power of this move; otherwise, this strike would have been enough to pierce through this Small World.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chen was entering a good rhythm, completely unaware of God Venerable Hunyuan's expression, and continued to demonstrate the third form on his own.

As he formed seals with his hands, the power of Origin in his palms suddenly transformed into rolling arcs of lightning; the lightning arcs were first white, gradually turned purple, and finally upgraded to red.

He then blasted it forward violently; the palm print formed by the red lightning arcs shot out, continuously expanding in the air until it was thousands of feet high.

Wherever it passed, space was torn, storms raged incessantly, and mountain after mountain was leveled.

"Just how is this kid's brain wired to be able to fuse the lightning-type Divine Ability of the Chaotic Undying Body with the Mind-Cultivation Technique of the Chaos Art?"

God Venerable Hunyuan muttered in his heart; even he, who possessed the Saint-Grade Seven Profound Root back in the day, would not have had such unfathomable talent!

Just as he was marveling, Xiao Chen stood in the air, eyes tightly closed, then suddenly opened them, with seven-colored divine light flashing in his eyes.

He pointed a finger forward.

The Void Realm before him suddenly collapsed into a huge black hole, and the black hole grew increasingly intense, unable to heal for a long time.

In the next instant, the rapidly collapsing black hole seemed as if it were about to swallow the miniature world before him.

God Venerable Hunyuan was startled; a cold gleam shot out from his fingertip, instantly transforming into a curtain of light that covered the constantly collapsing black hole.

In just a few breaths, he had repaired it completely.

Until this moment, he finally believed what Xiao Chen had said; he had indeed thoroughly comprehended the first four forms of the Chaos Art.

It was even somewhat beyond his expectations.

Because he clearly perceived that the Chaos Art Xiao Chen used actually contained hints of the Heaven-Slaying Sword Intent.

And that Heaven-Slaying Sword Intent was something he had once sought but could not obtain.

Xiao Chen soared into the air, escaped from the miniature world, and bowed to him, "Senior Divine Venerable, I wonder how the first four forms I used were?"

"Hmm, not bad."

God Venerable Hunyuan raised an eyebrow and glanced at him sideways, "It barely meets this Venerable's Dharma Eye; you must continue to study diligently after you return."

"Yes, Senior Divine Venerable."

[Ding! The Chaos Art comes from the chaos stele; why doesn't the Host take this opportunity to ask him to let you study the chaos stele?]

The System's reminder immediately made Xiao Chen's eyes light up; perhaps he could find an opportunity for a Breakthrough from the chaos stele, but he still pretended to be hesitant.

God Venerable Hunyuan swept a glance at him, "If you have something to say, feel free to speak directly."

"Senior Divine Venerable."

Xiao Chen immediately bowed, "I know full well that the chaos stele is Senior's supreme treasure, but since I have learned Senior's Chaos Art, could you allow me to take a look at the chaos stele?"

Upon hearing this, God Venerable Hunyuan's mouth twitched noticeably, but he still waved his large hand, and a blue vortex immediately appeared before them.

"Go."

"Thank you, Senior Divine Venerable."

Xiao Chen bowed, his figure transformed into a beam of light, and he instantly dove into the blue vortex.

...

Meanwhile, an aura of abnormal change was quietly spreading over the Wild Ancient Marsh.

Billowing thick cyan smoke swept out; wherever it passed, vegetation withered, and mountains and rivers turned into a withered wilderness.

Countless cold crows fell from the sky, their mournful cries echoing through the valley.

"That cyan smoke is closing in!"

Ji Wushuang stood within the Sanskrit Light Exorcism Formation, her expression extremely grave, "Prepare to construct a barrier; do not let that smoke seep in!"

"Understood."

Bing Nianchu and Xuanyuan Feitian replied in unison.

Just at this moment, a faint, rustling sound spread from the distance.

Ji Wushuang keenly sensed something unusual, "Something is strange."

"I seem to hear a faint buzzing sound." Bing Nianchu frowned.

In the next instant, dense swarms of small yellow insects darted out from the cyan smoke, flapping their wings and surging forward like a plague of locusts.

A scalp-tingling buzzing sound exploded in everyone's ears.

"What... what is this thing!" Xuanyuan Feitian exclaimed in shock.

"Spirit-Devouring Insects!"

Ji Wushuang couldn't help but blurt out, quickly ordering, "Form a triangular Formation, stabilize the Sanskrit Light Exorcism Formation, and construct a Spiritual Qi barrier!"

Hearing this, Bing Nianchu and Xuanyuan Feitian dared not delay for a moment; they immediately sat cross-legged and formed seals with their hands.

profound light of various colors lit up on the three of them simultaneously, gathering rapidly in the air and continuously pouring into the Formation.

At the same time, Bing Nianchu gave a soft shout, and frost spread rapidly along the barrier of the Formation, quickly constructing a layer of ice barrier.

Hum!

Hum!

Ear-piercing buzzing sounds slammed into the Sanskrit Light Exorcism Formation; the dense swarm of small yellow insects worked in coordination.

They quickly crawled all over the barrier of the Sanskrit Light Exorcism Formation, opening their small mouths to continuously drain the Spiritual Qi contained within the Formation.

In just a moment, the entire Sanskrit Light Exorcism Formation was surrounded so tightly that not even a single ray of light could penetrate it.

Noticing that the Formation's Spiritual Qi was draining rapidly, Xuanyuan Feitian panicked completely, "Isn't this Sanskrit Light Exorcism Formation claimed to be able to resist Void Refinement Stage Cultivators?"

"A single Spirit-Devouring Insect is not worth worrying about, but the quantity is simply too great; their overall power is even greater than that of a Void Refinement Stage Cultivator."

Bing Nianchu explained with a grave expression.

"Do everything you can to stabilize it!"

Ji Wushuang said while channeling Spiritual Qi into the Formation, "Once they break through, we will be devoured until not even bones remain."
