"What is this?" Chu Xiuâs pupils suddenly contracted.
In his vision, just now, from within the Celestial Dragon, an invisible tendril extended out, connecting to that resident. Then, a connection was established, rapidly transporting that person to the Celestial Dragonâs side!
"Is this the divine technique of the Celestial Dragon? Besides storing immense energy, it can also grant power to its believers who have faith in it!"
Ordinary people cannot use the power of the Celestial Dragon, but as long as the thought "wanting to go to the Celestial Dragonâs side" appears in their minds, that strange golden light can grant them the power to accomplish it!
"The Celestial Dragon, the god in mythological legends who fulfills the wishes of ordinary people..."
"Is this its divine technique?"
A trace of coldness flashed in Chu Xiuâs eyes.
Like this, the final barrier of the opponentâs plan was also breached.
Chu Xiu looked on coldly as one of his fierce ghosts tried to block the person enveloped in the golden light, only to be directly smashed into powder!
Seeing this, Chu Xiu snorted coldly, and four corpses refined rushed out from behind him!
The iron armor on the Iron Armor Corpse massively increased, forming a gigantic shield in front, while the three Poison Claw Corpses crouched behind, ready to strike!
Although the combat power of these four refined corpses was somewhat lagging behind Chu Xiuâs current level, it did not mean they were weak.
The Iron Armor Corpse could block the slashes from Li Zhan, and just a touch from the Poison Claw Corpse was enough to dissolve a King Tier!
Though they were merely General Tier corpses, in certain aspects, they were comparable to advanced King Tier!
Chu Xiuâs idea was simple: if he couldnât stop them, then just kill the main body directly, and it would be over, wouldnât it?
Though he no longer had the Blood Demon Incarnation, the opponent had destroyed the barrier of the Peach Blossom Spring and, after such a strong energy output, could not be in a perfect condition either!
Of course, Chu Xiu was only probing by sending these four corpses,
he had other stronger means afterward.
However, what surprised him was that the four corpses, when descending, encountered no obstruction!
"Clang!"
The long claws of the Poison Claw Corpse scratched the Celestial Dragonâs skin, but as a golden light flashed, the Poison Claw Corpse was sent flying far away.
Chu Xiuâs eyes narrowed slightly.
Next, he maneuvered the four refined corpses to launch many attacks, even summoning the entire Ghostly Legion in the end!
Yet, in the face of the onslaught from tens of thousands of ghosts, the golden light protected the Celestial Dragon like an impenetrable barrier; it just lay there like a gigantic guardian god, neither attacking nor getting angry, yet as stable as Mount Tai, with the ghostâs bites as ineffective as ants biting an elephant.
"Tsk."
Chu Xiu clicked his tongue softly, grasping the key point.
"The power of this Celestial Dragon is unbelievably strong, like an Earth Dragon with a constitution exceeding twenty thousand, far surpassing the true body of Moloch!"
"Moreover, as a god as ancient as the Celestials enduring for so many years, it surely has accumulated power far exceeding other subordinates!"
"However, there might be issues with its control over power, like a strictly programmed robot that must satisfy certain conditions before it can use âpowerâ."
This is actually quite a reasonable assumption; in fact, Chu Xiu had this idea even before seeing the Celestial Dragon.
If not, how could a living person travel back and forth between here and space day by day for seven hundred years? How could there be no sign of resistance after the abyss descended and other subordinates awakened their consciousness?
If he guessed correctly, this Celestial Dragon has completely lost its own will,
"For now, the Celestials, though verbally hateful towards me, ultimately want to survive. As long as they can maintain power, abandoning hatred and hiding like a turtle is not a big deal, like they have done in the past."
"Even if they merge afterward, they definitely cannot fully control the Celestial Dragonâs power, so they use this method, waiting to leave after collecting a sufficient number of residents."
"Limit of twelve hours, probably he needs another twelve hours to ârebootâ the Celestial Dragon and fly to the depths of the Peach Blossom Spring."
Yet even after figuring out the key, Chu Xiuâs brows remained tightly knitted.
The Celestial Dragonâs massive size and its innate defense were already abnormal; back when he fought the Earth Dragon, a strike from Chu Xiuâs True Sin Punishing Demon Saber only left a wound, failing to cut through the bone.
The Celestial Dragonâs defense and life force must be even stronger!
Below a fierce ghost, itâs likely unable to even scrape off a tiny bit of skin! Even a fierce ghost could at most leave some minor wounds entirely irrelevant to the Celestial Dragonâs size.
Thus, though the Ghostly Legion appears vast, in reality, the Celestial Dragon only needs to guard against attacks from Ghost Generals and above; under such circumstances, Chu Xiuâs side consumes more!
The Ghostly Legion couldnât inflict any effective damage, and Chu Xiuâs Golden Embryo Origin was heavily depleted, not recoverable in a short time.
Worse yet...
Chu Xiu looked toward the people he was protecting.
If the strong attack proves ineffective and leads to a battle of wits to seize people, then his earlier attacking actions would certainly be a huge detriment...
Indeed, whispering voices rose among the crowd.
"Did you see just now? That person who wanted to leave was smoothly brought to the Divine Dragonâs side under Buddhaâs golden light protection!"
"Thatâs right! Those ugly evil demons tried to block but were directly smashed into powder!"
"Look, everyone! Those evil demons were furiously attacking but didnât cause any damage to the Divine Dragon!"
