CHAPTER 341
CHAPTER 341: Divine Confrontation
Lu Ming had no idea how Moonfiend had managed to infiltrate the heavily fortified Boshi Tower.
He could only confirm two things with certainty: first, there had been no violent destruction involved, and second, the breach had not resulted from any flaws or oversights in the Boshi Tower’s intricate array patterns. Beyond that, however, Lu Ming remained in the dark.
In the end, he could only attribute the breach to the presence of a truly formidable opponent—a reality he knew he had to accept. After all, gods possessed endless life spans, but their physical strength remained fixed, unable to evolve. Yet, there were always individuals, like Jiu Han, driven by ambition to master areas such as array formations, alchemy, and weapon refinement in their quest for power.
While Jiu Han’s expertise in the Dao of Array Formation was undeniably deep, it did not make him the greatest in the world. It was entirely reasonable to believe that equally skilled, if not more advanced, formation experts existed among their enemies.
“The key is how to deal with it.”
Moonfiend’s intrusion into the Boshi Tower had become a fact. There was no point in dwelling on how shē had entered.
The primary issue now was how to handle Moonfiend.
After a brief contemplation, Lu Ming sighed softly. “Actually, it seems that I have only one way to resist Moonfiend, right?”
The way was to use the Boshi Tower to suppress and control Moonfiend. Apart from that, Lu Ming had no other options.
He opened his attribute panel and looked at the skills column. The words “Dao of Array Formation LV384” appeared before his eyes.
When the Dao of Array Formation reached level 200, Lu Ming had already been able to activate and utilize all the functions of the Boshi Tower. At this moment, the Dao of Array Formation had reached level 384, so naturally, Lu Ming could do even more.
Just as the thought of using the power of the Boshi Tower to suppress Moonfiend arose in his heart, a vast amount of array formation knowledge automatically surfaced in his mind.
Shifting his gaze to scan the entire structure of the Boshi Tower, Lu Ming soon understood how to modify the array formation inside the tower to meet his needs.
“Let’s go with this for now. It should be able to temporarily delay Moonfiend. But if I want to achieve more, the Dao of Array Formation still needs to continue upgrading!”
With each additional point, the level of the array formation advanced significantly, and as the complexity and power of the formations grew, Lu Ming found the Dao of Array Formation not only increasingly fascinating but also remarkably more versatile and effective in its applications. The higher the level became, the deeper his appreciation for its profound intricacies, as new possibilities unfolded before him.
Moreover, the cost of adding points to the Dao of Array Formation was astonishingly minimal, making the process all the more enticing.
In his mounting excitement, Lu Ming eagerly anticipated just how far the system could push the limits of the Dao of Array Formation, and the prospect thrilled him.
With a simple snap of his fingers, a substantial surge of Origin Power flowed effortlessly from his hand.
The Origin Power swiftly coalesced into an intricate array formation in the air before him, naturally guiding the sluggish Divine Origin within his body.
At level 384, Lu Ming’s mastery over array formation had reached a point where he could manipulate the Divine Origin within himself with ease.
As his internal power surged, more and more array formations materialized in midair, one after another, forming an awe-inspiring display of energy and control.
A large number of miniature array formations connected in sequence, spreading into the distance and penetrating the void under the guidance of the Boshi Tower’s array formation. Where they were headed, Lu Ming did not know.
After completing all of this, Lu Ming took a deep breath.
He closed his eyes and returned to the void space. In the void space, Lu Ming once again uttered the familiar three words:
“Add more points!”
✹☢✹
A gentle breeze caressed the tips of Moonfiend’s hair as fresh air filled her lungs. shē turned, taking in her surroundings.
Lush trees and vibrant vegetation stretched around her, while colorful birds occasionally darted past the treetops.
Their incessant chirping, crisp and melodious, could lift anyone’s spirits.
But Moonfiend’s mood was anything but lifted.
Frustration gnawed at her.
The Desolate Demon Lord had forced her into the Boshi Tower. Her thoughts wandered to Lu Ming’s irritating face. And then there was the strangeness within the tower itself—rumors of another god guarding its depths...
In short, at this moment, Moonfiend had thought about many things. But after careful consideration, shē accepted the reality…
If shē did not tear down the Boshi Tower, shē wouldn’t be able to break free from this situation, no matter what.
“All right.”
“Fine!!…”
Taking a deep breath, a rare trace of determination appeared in Moonfiend’s eyes. After all, shē was also at the Divine Realm…
Even a rabbit would bite when cornered, let alone Moonfiend.
Shē stepped forward, cautiously observing her surroundings.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Moonfiend suddenly realized that shē had unknowingly circled around in this small forest.
“Damn it! Playing tricks on me!”
At this point, how could Shē not realize this was a simple maze formation? shē had wasted more than ten minutes for no reason!
Infuriated, Moonfiend could no longer be bothered with caution. Since shē had to deal with it anyway, shē might as well be savage and direct…
Her figure soared into the air in an instant.
As Moonfiend waved her small hand, golden light filled the surroundings!
“Meteorite!”
Origin Power and Divine Origin condensed into a huge meteor, falling from the sky and crashing into the ground! Accompanied by a violent roar, a massive mushroom cloud rose from the earth.
When the dust settled, the forest had already been reduced to scorched earth by Moonfiend!
However, before Moonfiend could react, the scorched ground suddenly trembled. Numerous incomprehensible array patterns and symbols, beyond Moonfiend’s understanding, flashed continuously from the earth.
Accompanied by a low whimper, a giant stone man, ten meters tall, crawled out of the ground and stood at Moonfiend’s feet.
More array patterns and symbols flashed out of the void once again. These symbols landed on the stone man’s surface, embedding themselves into its body like tattoos.
Golden light radiated from some of the runes, illuminating the stone man, as if it were adorned with golden armor.
Moonfiend recognized the essence of this golden light. To her, it was an enormous amount of Divine Origin!
“Tsk…”
This amount of Divine Origin made Moonfiend click her tongue, and her heart ached. As jealousy flared within her, Moonfiend scrutinized the stone man and quickly perceived its true nature.
“The strength of an earth puppet created from an array formation is probably equivalent to an Ascendant with primordial patterns.”
“Then, it was augmented with an extremely large amount of Divine Origin, allowing the earth puppet to have the strength to directly resist a being in the Divine Realm…”
As soon as shē completed her assessment, the stone man beneath her feet bent its legs and soared into the sky.
The heavy fist, accompanied by a howling wind, smashed toward Moonfiend’s face, but shē easily intercepted it with a simple outstretched hand.
The sizes of their hands were completely disproportionate. The mud puppet’s fist was even larger than Moonfiend’s entire body. However, the forces on both sides were diametrically opposed—Moonfiend’s delicate hand was merely extended flat, showing no visible exertion, yet the mud puppet seemed to have crashed into an impenetrable barrier, unable to advance at all!
A trace of a cold smile flashed across Moonfiend’s lips. “You want to use this to deal with me? Aren’t you looking down on me too much?!”
“Spirit Slaughter!!”
A faint red light flashed across Moonfiend’s body. In an instant, endless golden light burst from the Earth Puppet’s body like sparks. In that single moment, the Earth Puppet suffered thousands of slashes from sharp blades, and a tenth of the Divine Origin Armor on its body was directly shaved off!
“Having Divine Origin means being on the level of the Divine Realm?”
“It’s not such a simple matter…”
Pointing her finger at the Earth Puppet’s head, Moonfiend’s eyes flashed with cold light and killing intent!
“Moonlight Ripples!”
