Chapter 2209  Limits Of The Boundary And Ambush Method

With his hand so deep, the effects of the Death Qi were also stronger.

~HISS~

The hissing sound was finally heard as it started corroding the stone gauntlet. Though this time around, the process was not as fast, and unlike when Lin Mu was just using his golden body to resist, he was feeling no pain.

This was due to the fact that the Longgui Bulwark Armor was an external technique and even if it was destroyed, it could be restored with a little effort from Lin Mu. As such, he could wholly bear the expense of it getting damaged by the Death Qi.

"Hmm, it can corrode, but the speed is slow." Lin Mu noted. "But what if it has additional opposition?" he wondered.

As soon as he thought that, the searing heat rose from his body once more. The stone gauntlet glowed in a bright red and orange light, as magma started to flow around it!

'Longgui Bulwark Armors: Magma Fury!'

Lin Mu maintained the state of the gauntlet while letting more of the searing Qi to fuel it. This turned into the magma that now coated it and burned brightly!

The combination of three elements: Fire, Metal and Earth was reinforcing each other, providing a multiplicative effect.

~SHAHA~

As soon as the Magma showed its power, the Death Qi was sent reeling!

It was not only purged from corrupting the stone gauntlet, it even created a five centimeter empty area around the entire gauntlet!

"This is better than I thought." Lin Mu said. "Strong Yang effect is good enough to repel the Death Qi, even if one doesn't use Yang Qi itself." He stated before turning to Crown Prince Feng Shun.

"Lightning elemental Immortal Qi works the same for Death Qi, but my consumption will be much higher." Crown Prince Feng Shun knew what Lin Mu was thinking.

"You're using a combination of three basal elements, thus the consumption is low, but the effect is great. The effect might be equal with lightning, but as a heavenly element, the consumption will certainly increase and might even strain the user." Ziran said, after observing what Lin Mu had done.

"Hmm… I'll think of a method that can be applied to others." Lin Mu stated, knowing that he could only defend himself like this. "For now though, this'll be enough." He stated.

"Yes." Crown Prince Feng Shun and the others nodded.

The group was still a bit shook by the fact at how Lin Mu had tested all of this out. If it were a normal cultivator, they might have already been considered as insane to try something like this. Perhaps only a suicidal individual might try something like this, but then it won't be an easy death either.

Death Qi was very cruel in nature. It would corrode and corrupt every inch of one's body bit by bit, killing every cell while sending pangs of pain that would make one wish they never existed, until it fully consumed them and truly made their wish come true.

Perhaps that was the reason why even the Chimeric Beasts kept their distance from the Death Qi boundary and feared to even jump over it.

"Let's continue to Monk Hushu." Lin Mu said and flew back up in the sky.

Their break here had been short and not much time had pa.s.sed, thus it was just a temporary pause in their journey. But it had certainly provided important input to them.

While flying, Lin Mu made sure to pay attention to the death Qi boundaries that appeared and how they varied. He could certainly see the different sizes and thickness of the Death Qi boundaries. It was here that he noted that the Death Qi boundaries intersected in many areas.

'Hmm… So the Death Qi boundaries are individual lines. And they end whenever they intersect another such boundary.' Lin Mu learned.

He also observed that the thickness of each boundary was independent of each other. Some were thin, some were thick, while some were in the middle of that. As such, multiple boundaries like this would intersect and form a 'container' for the Chimeric beasts.

Whichever 'wall' of the container became thin and weak was also the spot where the Chimeric Beasts would gather.

'So that's what dictates their movements?' Lin Mu watched while avoiding the beasts.

While he could easily kill them, he didn't want to do that just now. Not when he was getting a lot of information from just observing them. Plus, they could very well do that once, they had met up with Monk Hushu and seen what the structure was.

After a couple hours of flying, Lin Mu learned one final think about the Chimeric beasts and the Death Qi boundaries.

'While they tend to avoid the thick boundaries, if all the intersecting walls are thick, they will just gather in the center.' Lin Mu could see that this could be a really good opportunity for an ambush.

Such an idea was best to be shared, and he did exactly that. And once the group heard it, they were in agreement.

"That is indeed quite excellent!" Daoist Chu said with excitement. "Yeah, the Chimeric Beasts don't dare to jump up and don't fly unless they are forced to. Thus we can take advantage of their pa.s.siveness." Crown Princess Shang stated.

"They won't have a place to run and since they are on the ground, they will still be at a disadvantage when they try to fly up." Qiao De spoke.

"We can very well look for groups like this and eliminate them all at once from the sky." Elder Hu was in agreement too.

"How about we try it out, then?" Lady Kang said, taking the initiative this time.

"You wish to have a go?" Lin Mu asked.

"Very well." Lady Kang said, wis.h.i.+ng to see how much Qi she'd need for a group like this.

They counted the Chimeric beasts and there were roughly nine thousand of them. They took up an area of about three hundred square meters and were huddled rather closely, making them the perfect targets.

Lady Kang got the sense of the area and prepared her skill.

Bringing her hands together, she made a circle, before drawing two lines from its center at a forty five degree angle.

She then extended this line along her shoulders and chanted lightly.

"Divine Mystic Constellation Art." She spoke as the lines she had drawn started to glow.

The circle expanded to become larger while the lines did too. But this was merely the start as Lady Kang then made two spirals along the ends of the lines that flitted with runes.

In fact, if one looked closely, they would see hundreds of runes budding from the lines that Lady Kang had drawn!

It was a different method of making runes that they had not seen.

'Runes without any strokes or direct draw?' Lin Mu wondered if this was the unique effect of the skill itself or something else.

~SHUA~

But before he could think further, the skill started to progress.

"88 Constellation Series- Thirty Ninth Form!" Lady Kang said out loud, as if commanding the skill to take form. "Golden Fleeced Chrysomallos!" Her words seemingly spurred the skill to transform as a large being materialized.

It was that of a winged ram composed out of s.h.i.+ning stars!

The stars were made out of the runes that had budded out of the lines that she had drawn and then twinkled like the night sky. But that was not all as the ram glowed an golden light too. Its fleece that was originally colorless took on a golden color and turned thick. It held a toughness that was hard to describe and also contained dignity that seemed to repel evil itself.

~BAAA~

The Ram let out a loud bleat as it rose its head to the sky. ~BIHIIIIIHIHIHI~

Its cry caused the Chimeric beasts below to panic as they started to cry anxiously too. They felt an instinctive fear of the constellation in the sky and what fate held for them.

But it was all for naught, as their existence was just temporary, for Lady Kang had completed the skill.

"Banis.h.i.+ng Horns Of Aries!" She chanted, causing the ram to take action.

The constellation descended from the sky, its head pointed towards the Chimeric beasts. As it got closer, its size grew bigger, and its horns covered the entire span of the Chimeric beasts.

The chimeric beasts could only look up fearful as their end flashed in their eyes.

~BOOM~

Then finally, the ram struck the chimeric beasts, the stellar energy contained within the horns purging the Chimeric beasts into dust. Their flesh and blood was burned away by the pure stellar energy while their cries were suppressed.

The group watched in awe as the Kang Clan's lady decimated nine thousand chimeric beasts in one go.

The impact left a dual spiral imprint on the ground. That was a mark of the Aries.
