Chapter 379 Simple Values
The number of cracks in the sea of clouds continues to increase, and as more and more large cracks appear, the monsters that escape from their confinement become increasingly difficult to deal with.
Yu Sheng immediately drove Zheng Zhi and Cinderella, who were not good at fighting, into No. 66 Wutong Road, and then he and other people on Guanyuntai were involved in an endless battle with those monsters.
A strange creature with a body as thin as a snake but with a feather crest and hands and feet swooped down from the sky, making a headache-inducing shrill scream. But before it landed, countless black spider silk appeared out of thin air, piercing the monster's body and locking it tightly. Then a dazzling beam of hot light swept across the air, cutting the monster into two pieces along with another strange creature that was crawling out of the crack not far away.
Irene (rebar) sat on Yu Sheng's shoulder, constantly controlling the spreading black spider silk to capture the monsters approaching the Guanyuntai. Another Irene (black iron) stood on the ground not far away, raised her hand and shot out beams of scorching light into the sky, while shouting arrogantly: "Ahahaha, you bastards! Is it hot? Is it hot? I charged the battery all night last night - now I'm terribly strong!! No matter how many come... Hey, Hu Li, watch the road, don't step on me!"
Hu Li swooped down from mid-air and stepped on a demon-like humanoid monster. At the same time, fox fire rose from his body, and the monster was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye. When she heard Irene's complaint, she did not even turn her head and said: "Can you find a high place to stay? It's hard for me to move my feet in this form!"
"Who told you to be so talkative!" Irene (Xuantie) shouted as she quickly scurried around on the ground to avoid being stepped on. "I was sitting on Yu Sheng's other shoulder just now - and I fell off!"
Yu Sheng reached over and grabbed Irene, then held the doll in one hand and waved the tetanus stick in the other hand while looking around -
The long-haired princess is holding a golden scythe transformed from her magic hair, and is fighting fiercely with a very powerful ape-shaped beast on the Guanyun Terrace. She basically has no moves to speak of, and relies entirely on the "hunting techniques" she has learned from fighting all kinds of demonic creatures since she was a child to deal with the enemy, but each of her moves is deadly because of this. The magic long hair can be transformed into almost any weapon or armor in her hand, and she is extremely skilled in using swords, spears, swords and halberds, and is as ferocious as a golden beast.
But the most dangerous weapon in her hand is not the weapons that look powerful and powerful, with wild and sweeping moves, but the hair that is raised in the air and seems to be just blown by the wind inadvertently.
Strands of golden hair moved quietly around her. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't even notice the thin hair. Silently, these hairs had already attached to the body of the ape-shaped beast. When the latter sensed the murderous intent and instinctively retreated, it was already too late -
Rapunzel swung the golden scythe in the beast's hand, and the beast subconsciously raised its hand to block it, but suddenly hundreds of tiny blood flowers burst out from its body. The pervasive golden hair pierced into its limbs, and then spread along all its meridians and blood vessels in its body. In the blink of an eye, it found several hearts in the monster's body and cut all of them into pieces.
The ferocious beast fell to the ground with a bang, and the blood-stained hair that killed it slowly retracted and turned into a brilliant golden color in mid-air.
Rapunzel laughed, her face stained with purple monster blood, and she looked particularly happy.
These things were much easier to deal with than her holiday homework.
But at this moment, another teeth-grinding "creaking" sound came from the air, attracting everyone's attention.
Yu Sheng subconsciously looked up in the direction where the sound came from, but saw that above the cliff on the side of Guanyuntai, a "passage" that was obviously different from the previous crack was slowly opening.
There was a crystal clear light in the crack, as if a magnificent crystal cave was gradually opening. It looked strange but with a strange splendor. As the crack continued to expand, what emerged from it was not the hideous beasts and monsters before, but a sharp...crystal cluster.
A huge crystal with gorgeous colors and several meters high is gradually floating out from the crack and slowly falling to the ground in a descending posture.
Yu Sheng instantly sensed a huge danger. He saw that the crystal was tied with extremely thick demon-suppressing chains around its waist. The chains were densely covered with runes, all of which were burning fiercely. Rays of light spread from the cracks, as if they were still trying to drag the crystal back - however, all these sealing measures were rapidly weakened as the damage inside the Demon-Suppressing Tower expanded. Almost in the blink of an eye, the chains tied to the crystal were broken in half.
The next second, as the crystal gradually freed itself, everyone on the Guanyun Terrace heard a pleasant sound.
The sound sounded like wind chimes or the tapping of jade. The pleasant sound came from inside the crystal and was as refreshing as the sound of heaven.
The moment the crystal rang, most of the battle on the Guanyun Terrace was resolved. Everyone felt a sense of relaxation and laziness from the bottom of their hearts. Even those hideous beasts, demons, and alien ghosts seemed to have been "purified" in some way, and lazily restrained their murderous intent.
However, in sharp contrast to this sudden "comfortable" and "relaxed" appearance, there was a sudden fear in the eyes of some intelligent monsters.
A demon covered with scales and shaped like an upright lizard stumbled and fell the moment it saw the crystal. When it saw the chains binding the crystal breaking bit by bit, it was so scared that it uttered human words: "Great...Great Desolate Meteorite Crystal!"
Before he finished speaking, the fighting spirit in the demon's eyes had already dissipated, and as the crystal rang again, a lazy look of calm joy appeared on its inhuman face, and then, the scales all over its body were quickly covered with a layer of colorful crystal texture. Within a few breaths, the monster turned into a lifelike crystal sculpture, as if it had the same origin as the colorful crystal in the air.
When Yu Sheng saw this, his hair stood on end: "What the hell is this!"
Rapunzel, who had been fighting happily, was also stunned at this moment - she soon found that her hair could not penetrate the crystal at all, and the moment the scythe in her hand chopped down, it seemed as if the strength was drained away and it became limp. The fighting spirit in her heart seemed to be thrown into an ice cellar, slipping away with every second, and a laziness that made her want to just stop and rest, or even just turn into a stone and bask in the sun and do nothing, emerged uncontrollably from the bottom of her heart.
At this moment, a black figure suddenly crossed the battlefield like a ghost.
Luna seemed to be completely unaffected by the crystal. She nimbly passed the crowd, her fingertips blades casually harvesting those enemies along the way who had lost their will to fight and had even begun to gradually transform into crystal sculptures. Her figure moved between the world of the living and the dead, and each step was precise, elegant and just right - there was not a trace of hesitation, nor a waste of physical strength or time. After a few "dances" that seemed slow but were actually fast, she came to the crystal that was floating off the ground, and then stabbed it directly with the blade.
The crystals are so hard that even a unidirectional crystallized alloy blade strong enough to cut through a battleship's armor can only produce a series of sparks on its surface and cannot cause any damage at all.
But this attack, which seemed to have no effect, directly interrupted the pleasant sound coming from inside the crystal, turning its originally harmonious vibration sound into a series of harsh and strange noises.
Yu Sheng's eyes blurred, and he saw the blonde female knight leading twelve bronze knights in the wilderness of souls, carrying swords, spears, sticks and clubs to beat the crystal...
He was immediately shocked: "...This thing also has a soul?!"
"It's hard to say whether it's a soul, but it does have a mind," Yuan Hao's voice came from mid-air. "The Great Desolate Meteorite Crystal is a dangerous and strange object that my master found after a strange meteorite rain a thousand years ago. This object fell out of a foreign land called 'Desolate Sky'. It is actually a high-risk 'entity' in the foreign land. After leaving the foreign environment, it mutated, but it still survives to this day. This thing has a mind and can think. It is strange and dangerous, but the sound it emits can be processed and used to suppress those monsters that are easy to get out of control. So we have locked it under the tower as a 'demon-suppressing stone' for these years, but now it seems... this thing can't be kept after all."
As he was speaking, the sound coming from the strange crystal gradually dissipated, and then the colorful light on its surface was quickly covered with a layer of gray and white, symbolizing death. It fell to the ground from a floating state half a meter above the ground, no longer making any sound, but still swaying slightly, as if even if the "soul" was dead, its body was still alive.
It's even trying to regenerate its own soul.
"It needs to be broken," Luna took a few steps back and turned to look at Yu Sheng, "but it's too hard."
"That's easy."
Yuan Hao Zhenren's voice sounded from mid-air, and then he floated down. Yu Sheng saw that the other party flipped his palm and put the "Ten Directions Heaven-Suppressing Ruler" that was as big as a brick into his sleeve. Then he raised his hand again, and another weapon appeared in his hand out of thin air -
The front end of the weapon is square, made of neither metal nor wood, it is bright red and eye-catching, cold and frightening, and has a half-meter-long handle at the back.
Yu Sheng: “…”
It's just another bigger brick with a stick welded to the back. It's a warhammer at best, but it's essentially just a... well, a hammer.
As soon as Yu Sheng saw this thing, he couldn't help but want to complain, but Yuan Hao Zhenren obviously wouldn't give him this opportunity. The old general took a step forward, his every move showing the demeanor of a master. His white clothes were like snow, his hair was white and his eyebrows were like swords. He raised the red brick with a handle high in his hand, and as he raised his hand and hammered it down, he chanted: "Haotian Demon Suppression Hammer!"
Then there was a loud "bang" and the hard crystal that even Luna's fingertips couldn't break off was smashed into pieces by Master Yuan Hao's hammer.
It highlights an aspect that has no beauty, no special effects, no attribute restraint, no skills or magical powers, and no exquisite Taoism, but has enough numbers.
