Outside the dark void, Chu Tian squinted his eyes and looked at a twisted figure shrouded in black light several feet away.
This guy should have been a slave soldier of the Celestial Clan, right?
He was still wearing tattered leather armor. Judging from the light reflected by the armor and the fine rune marks on it, the quality of the armor was quite good. It should have been a fine product forged by the craftsmen in Jin's Artisan City.
It's just that this guy's body shape has changed too much. He is nearly six feet tall, and his upper body has swollen strangely like a beetle, occupying two-thirds of his body volume. The sharp black horns on his arms are like two huge maces, and his body is covered with a thick layer of chitin-like substance.
The swollen and mutated body burst the leather armor. In the bulging eye sockets of this guy, two black eyes as big as sea bowls flashed with strange light, cruel and treacherous, with an inexplicable hideousness, and he was staring at Chu Tian from several feet away.
Chu Tian was standing in the normal blue sky, white clouds, green mountains and clear waters. A few feet away, the unlucky mutant was standing in the black dim light space. The two looked at each other for a while, and behind the mutant guy, a large group of mutants with strange shapes appeared.
'Hiss~~~Ah~~~'!
The mutant's arms became about 17 or 18 feet long, as thick and ferocious as maces. He roared towards the sky, and his thin legs suddenly bounced. His two-foot-tall body shot out like a cannonball, and his two arms slammed towards Chu Tian's chest with two "bangs" with a dull sound of breaking through the air.
The guy's punching speed was astonishingly fast, and the fist broke through the air so quickly that Chu Tian could only see a faint afterimage.
His strangely mutated arms rubbed against the air so rapidly that a dull black flame splashed up, which showed how fast this guy's fists were.
Chu Tian learned from the Lord of Mars that the most special power of the Mingjiao clan is erosion and collapse. He did not dare to touch this guy's fist with his body easily. He waved his hand, and the Qingjiao Sword that had just digested a large amount of "Taiyin" divine material flew out silently, and a ray of light quickly passed through this guy's two arms.
With two crisp "ding ding" sounds, two sparks flew from the guy's arms. His arms suddenly fell off at the shoulders, like two maces falling heavily on the ground, and immediately turned into a ball of black sticky flames that exploded in all directions.
With two loud 'booms', the two exploded arms spewed out black flames that covered an area of more than ten feet in radius, making the ground sizzle. The soil was burned and sunken more than ten feet deep. The originally fertile soil immediately turned into black gravel.
Chu Tian took two steps back and flicked his finger. The Qing Jiao Sword pierced through the mutant's forehead. The mutant's body suddenly stiffened and suddenly stopped in place. The next moment, his body suddenly expanded and lit up, just like a moldy and spoiled black strawberry suddenly expanded, followed by a muffled "bang".
The mutant's body exploded, and large amounts of black flames sprayed out over a hundred feet in all directions.
A huge black pit with a diameter of over a hundred feet was burned on the ground. Countless black sand and gravel were burned with a "crackling" sound. Sand and gravel of all sizes exploded and sprayed far away like firecrackers.
Dozens of mutants rushed out roaring and pounced on Chu Tian like mad dogs.
The Green Dragon Sword flashed by, and the mutants were stabbed in the center of their eyebrows one after another, and their lives were instantly wiped out. Then their bodies all exploded, and an area of nearly a thousand feet in radius was burned by the black flames, leaving no life behind.
Not only that, there were also wisps of black smoke rising from the black sand and gravel. These black smokes eroded and penetrated into the normal void around them, and soon the light around Chu Tian gradually dimmed.
Even though the sun was high in the sky, the light around Chu Tian still dimmed. Wherever the black smoke passed, the void was deteriorating and decaying. Some irreversible and terrible changes were taking place, as if normal human cells had turned into cancer cells. An obscure mutated energy gradually filled the void, making Chu Tian feel uncomfortable all over.
Chu Tian felt like a narcissus that relied on clean water to survive, and was suddenly stuffed into a large basin of sticky caustic soda solution; or like a free goldfish that was suddenly thrown into a pool of magma.
This feeling was extremely bad. Chu Tian felt as if his vitality was strangled. He hurriedly retreated hundreds of feet and left this mutated void contaminated by dead mutants.
"Luo'er, did you see clearly? These guys are really hard to deal with!" Chu Tian took out a communication jade talisman and said with a bitter smile: "If we kill them outside, they will die and this world will be destroyed; if we go into this black void to kill them... I just felt it, and I'm afraid that if we stay in for too long, some bad changes will happen to our bodies."
Behind Chu Tian, a purple spiritual cloud hung high in the sky. On the spiritual cloud covering an area of thousands of miles, a majestic and magnificent palace stood tall.
Large groups of Celestial Clan members were wearing heavy armor and set up strict battle formations to guard the four directions according to the status of their families. Lei Ju, Feng Li, Yin Chou and others were among them. Jin Tiexin, Huo E, Shui Wubo and others who were familiar to Chu Tian were also among them.
Flying boats shuttled rapidly in the void, continuously dropping slender bronze metal pillars to the ground.
These metal pillars, which were as thick as water tanks and thousands of feet long, sank deep into the ground, and then emitted a large cloud of thick smoke. The smoke, which was as dark as copper rust, merged together and turned into a thick cloud wall that stretched from sky to earth, tightly enveloping the void of tens of millions of miles polluted by the Mingjiao clan.
In many places, mutants kept rushing out from the dim space and madly attacked this layer of cloud wall.
No one knew where the ancestors of the Purple Clan got this layer of cloud wall from, or what methods were used to make it. After the mutants entered the thick cloud, they were like small insects immersed in concentrated acid. Thick smoke the color of copper rust quickly emerged from their bodies, and they screamed miserably before being corroded in just a few breaths.
The mutants killed by these thick clouds no longer have black flames spewing out of their bodies, and they are unable to cause damage to the normal space around them.
Obviously, these bronze pillars and these thick rust-colored clouds are specifically designed to restrain the Mingjiao clan.
It was obvious that the Zi Clan had fought with the Mingjiao Clan in the outer battlefield, and they had special means of restraining the Mingjiao Clan. However, this time they were careless and allowed members of the Mingjiao Clan to sneak into this world!
Chu Tian looked around and heard Luo'er's voice through the communication jade talisman. Chu Tian nodded, and the Taiyin Wanhua Wheel flashed in the void of his spiritual orifice. He suddenly broke through the void and moved to the purple spiritual cloud, appearing directly outside the door of the central hall.
