Outside the shield, various spells composed of violent spiritual energy were madly crashing into the shield.
Inside the shield, Chengying threw the chicken bones into a paper bag on the side.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand any spells from outside..."
Chengying still felt a little nervous.
It's like when ordinary people watch ferocious beasts like lions and tigers through a glass wall in a zoo. When they see them rushing towards them, they can't help but take a few steps back.
While chewing on the roast chicken, Chengying also noticed that three of the six armor plates that had originally been arranged in a stable manner were shaking slightly. One of them even had a crack.
At this rate, this armor shield won't last much longer.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the monster in front of you can maintain this casting frequency.
Chengying felt that perhaps he should do something to proactively slow down the frequency of the opponent's attacks and buy himself more time to survive.
So, after Chengying finished eating the roast chicken, he wiped the oil on his clothes and took the initiative to say, "Senior... aren't you tired?"
“Roar—roar—”
"This protective treasure of mine was given to me by Master Xu Jing, the elder of Linghua Palace. It's not something you can break like this."
"roar!!!!"
The monster's attack suddenly became stronger.
"I'm just a mere Void Core cultivator. Without this shield, you could easily crush me to death." Cheng Ying acted very casually, sitting on the hairpin and swinging his legs. "But, the spiritual energy you've consumed in this attack has already exceeded the total amount of a Void Core cultivator, right? Even if you add my soul and body, it's not worth it."
The monster didn't scream this time, but instead stopped many of its attack spells. Only a few attack spells were left to maintain momentum and continue to hit the shield.
"Besides, I'm not the only one involved, am I? There must be cultivators with higher cultivation than me elsewhere, but none as formidable as me. If you have the time to waste here with me, why don't you go find them?"
In fact, Chengying also roughly guessed the answer to this question.
Initially, it was believed that this world was extremely vast and divided into separate areas by high walls. Monsters like them were unable to leave their own areas.
The monster fought for a while and then stopped.
The roots and soil swirled together and piled up in front of Chengying.
Huatian's human form emerged from a pile of dirt and reached the same height as Chengying.
"Senior, since you are conscious, could it be that before you became like this, you were a cultivator from Zhongfu Province?"
"That's right." Hua Tian said, his eyes filled with a sense of nostalgia for the past, "That was many years ago..."
Chengying was secretly delighted and changed his sitting position to one that made him feel comfortable and appeared to be interested in the conversation.
As long as he can communicate and is willing to talk, then we have the best of both worlds!
It can not only delay time, but also allow you to hear some secrets that may be buried in history!
"...Back then, a water curtain appeared within the sect's forbidden grounds. Everyone in the sect believed this was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. So, after a duel, three elite individuals were selected to step into the water curtain..."
"I luckily won third place and was the last one to enter. After entering, I got separated from the two fellow disciples who came before me. However, it was also because of this that I was able to explore some opportunities on my own, genuine opportunities!"
"After I found two opportunities... after... after... wuwu... wuao!!"
After saying just two and a half sentences, Huatian's human form began to twitch.
The roots on one side squirmed, turning over the soil and swallowing Huatian.
A new face appeared in front of Chengying.
Literally human faces.
The facial features were no longer in their original positions, and the dirt beneath the skin, formed from nowhere, looked like a stiff lump of flesh from a failed plastic surgery.
Just one look at it can make people feel uneasy and repulsive.
"……senior?"
The facial features began to shift constantly.
New facial features emerged from beneath the skin.
Various eyes, noses and mouths change like a kaleidoscope.
Some bulges gradually appeared behind the face.
These protruding roots and soil transformed into quite realistic human forms! And then, they even made all kinds of poses!
Some of them reached out to Chengying; some of them supported the monster's body with both hands, looking like they were trying to break away; some of them looked painful, covering their heads with both hands; and some of them had a dull expression, like a lifeless puppet.
However, as soon as these human figures appeared, within a few seconds they either collapsed into mud or were swallowed up by the surrounding surging mud.
"Oh no." Chengying scratched the back of his neck, unsure of what was happening before him.
Suddenly, the facial features of the human face were pieced together to form a huge mouth.
The mouth continued to expand, and after it expanded to five meters wide, it began to swallow Chengying.
The overwhelming mud blocked the light and wrapped the shield.
Chengying also quickly stood up, stepping on the hairpin to maintain his balance.
"broken."
Chengying clapped his hands on his face and emitted a white flame to illuminate.
I wanted to buy time, but it seems I triggered some reaction from this monster...
The shield swayed with the roots of the soil for about five minutes before gradually becoming stable.
Various voices could also be heard whispering in Chengying's ears.
"Senior, senior! Save me!"
"Little girl, you are already inside this tree demon. I know a weakness that will allow you to disintegrate it from the inside out!"
