Chapter 1086: 779 whimsical

"God-killing Array of the Twelve Dutian!"

Subconsciously raising the Tao Mirror, he held it horizontally in front of him, Jiang Chen’s face full of solemnity.

It was now certain that these twelve fierce beasts, akin to Ancestral Witches, had inherited the God-killing Array of the Twelve Dutian. Even though they had not yet been born, they had already been able to preliminarily utilize the array’s might, merging their attacks into one.

If they were to be born, then, barring any accidents, they would naturally be able to set up the God-killing Array of the Twelve Dutian.

For the Three Realms, this was not good news; Xing Tian had truly caused a great disaster.

Once these twelve fierce beasts were truly born and caused a catastrophe, Xing Tian’s esteemed status would not save him from a grim fate, no wonder he was so anxious. It was a matter that concerned his own life.

"What a disaster!"

Jiang Chen felt a heaviness in his heart, continuously summoning the magic treasures on his body and forming layers of defense outside his body to withstand the impending attack.

Fortunately, these twelve fierce beasts had not truly been born yet, and their mastery of the God-killing Array of the Twelve Dutian was still superficial, merely able to merge attacks, not to transform them.

Otherwise, Jiang Chen’s trouble would have been significant.

With the blessing of the real God-killing Array of the Twelve Dutian, the combined strike of the twelve fierce beasts would be more than just at the level of Great Divine Transcendents; it would be a genuinely Primordial Chaos Stage power, and even if Jiang Chen could hold off, he would suffer severe damage to his vital essence.

Boom!

With Jiang Chen’s layers of reinforcement, the might of the Tao Mirror was pushed to its limit, and faintly behind it, one could see the shadow of a Chaos-colored pearl and the phantom of a Chaos Axe emerging.

At this moment, under the augmentation of the two Chaos Treasure phantoms, the power of the Tao Mirror suddenly broke through the limit and briefly stepped into the realm of Innate Treasures. In an instant, an unprecedented brilliance burst forth from the Tao Mirror, forcefully repelling the surrounding Sha Qi.

Boom!

As the void silently collapsed, the joint strike of the twelve fierce beasts came thundering down, landing solidly upon the Tao Mirror.

However, the next moment, an astonishing scene unfolded. The Tao Mirror, enveloped in radiant light, rippled like a calm lake as it absorbed the incoming attack.

Immediately thereafter, the Tao Mirror, which had just been erected, faced the direction of the twelve fierce beasts and burst forth with endless radiance.

Counterattack!

This was one of the Tao Mirror’s many abilities; any power aimed at it, once absorbed, would be returned with twice the force.

Boom!

The divine light was splendid, shattering everything; the surrounding Sha Qi was obliterated in an instant, turning into nothingness. Right after, amidst the deep ocean of Sha Qi, the angry howls of the twelve fierce beasts were heard; their aura weakened considerably in that moment, clearly sustaining serious injuries.

Jiang Chen’s left eye shone brightly as he once again used the Primordial Chaos Eye irrespective of the cost. Through it, he saw that each of the twelve fierce beasts had a hollow wound, clear through from front to back, as if pierced through by some tremendous force.

These were the injuries inflicted by their own attacks, which had been returned with double the force by the Tao Mirror.

Sha Qi swirled around violently, frantically converging towards their wounds in an attempt to heal them, but it was futile. As intense as the Sha Qi was, the injuries on the fierce beasts remained unchanged.

In the moment of the attack, the Tao Mirror temporarily entered the level of Innate Treasures, which corresponded with the Primordial Chaos Stage. And Primordial Chaos wounds, how could they be so easily healed?

Without the same level of power to erode the lingering Primordial Chaos force within the wounds, as time passed, rather than healing, the wounds would only worsen, potentially even threatening their lives.

Great Divine Transcendents might wrestle with Saints, but not those at the Great Perfection Level of Quasi-Saints, and this was why. Great Divine Transcendents have partly undergone chaosification and, if injured by a Chaos Strongman, can heal on their own.

However, a consummate Quasi-Saint, who has no Primordial Chaos force within, once injured by a Saint, is essentially sentenced to death; not only are their injuries incurable, but they will worsen over time.

It is said that everything below Chaos is merely an ant, which derives from this fact.

Leaving just one wound on your body is enough to claim your life; isn’t this what it means to be an ant?

At the moment, these twelve fierce beasts were merely at the Great Perfection Level of Quasi-Saints, and with the injury by the Primordial Chaos force, how could healing be simple?

Nevertheless, expecting this attack to kill them was out of the question; at most, it could only delay their birth. Fierce beasts, born from the grudges of Chaos Demigods, carried the bloodline of Chaos Demigods within them. The stronger their cultivation, the purer their bloodline.

These twelve fierce beasts were undoubtedly among the elite of fierce beasts. Although the force of Primordial Chaos was formidable, it was, after all, not comparable to the power of Chaos Demigods. Once their origins were touched and the power of the Chaos Demigod within them was activated, the Primordial Chaos power left by the Tao Mirror upon them would easily be obliterated.

"This attack may not kill them, but at least it can severely injure them, preventing them from stirring up any storms for tens of thousands, or even over a hundred thousand years."

"Overall, this can be considered a good thing."
