Chapter 42 Target and Massacre
The nine-headed Taotie showed an extremely terrified expression, and its huge body coiled up, with black light rolling endlessly on its body, and its abdomen kept shrinking and expanding, as if it wanted to spit out the water of time from its body.
The nine-headed Taotie stopped swallowing, but the surging space power in the radius of ten thousand miles did not recover, and the same was true for the shattered void, which was still violently turbulent.
Those black space tunnels trembled constantly, and countless turbulent space-time storms could be clearly seen inside, which were slowly growing larger.
However, neither Shi Mu nor Miao Kong cared about the situation around them.
The mere space fluctuations could not pose much threat to their existence.
Seeing the situation of Taotie at the moment, the giant ape was slightly stunned, and did not continue to take action.
"Miao Kong, what's going on? The water of time was swallowed by this beast, is it okay?" It turned its head to look to the side and asked, while waving its hand to cast a spell.
The Xuanhuang domain around it flashed and dissipated, and the Xuanhuang light on its body also dissipated, and it turned into a golden body again.
The void beside the giant ape blossomed, and Miaokong's figure emerged.
"Don't worry, Daoist Fellow Shi Mu. Although the water of time contains the power of time, it is a supreme treasure, but it is also a supreme disaster. If you want to use the power of time in it, you can only refine it slowly. This glutton swallowed it into its body, and it will not live long. It will soon be blown up by the huge power of time." Miaokong laughed, but his eyes were as cold as ice, full of murderous intent.
The golden giant ape heard this and his expression changed.
"Daoist Fellow Miaokong is very clever. I admire you for coming up with such a method." The golden giant ape took a deep breath and said with a bow. .
"This nine-headed glutton has extremely long magic power and a strong body. If we don't use this kind of trick and use the power of the water of time, it will take a long time to decide the winner with it." Miaokong smiled proudly and continued.
The golden giant ape nodded.
Up to now, he has already experienced the terrifying strength of the nine-headed glutton. If he doesn't use any tricks and fights with strength alone, he may not be able to decide the winner even if he fights for a few more days.
As soon as Miaokong finished speaking, a roar full of pain came from the front.
The nine-headed glutton has now turned over and fallen, struggling endlessly, roaring in pain, and bloody bulges appearing all over his body, constantly deforming and bulging, looking extremely weird and terrifying.
Looking at the situation of the nine-headed glutton at this moment, Shi Mu is also a well-informed person, but he still can't help but be secretly shocked.
He could clearly sense the chaotic aura in the Nine-Headed Taotie, which was becoming more and more intense, as if there was a demon inside it struggling to break through its skin and burst out.
It seemed that its fate would be just as Miaokong said, and it would soon explode and die.
Shi Mu's expression relaxed.
Although it was a bit tricky to get rid of the Nine-Headed Taotie in this way, he was naturally very happy.
"What Taoist Miaokong did just now was to lure this Taotie beast to perform its devouring magic, so that he could take the opportunity to throw the Water of Time into its body. In this case, could the action of Taoist taking away the Water of Time just now also be acting?" He relaxed and chatted with Miaokong, and glanced at the bracelet on Miaokong's wrist.
"Daoyou Shi Mu has a good vision. The water of time contains a lot of power of space law and time law, which ordinary storage instruments cannot bear. Although there are space treasures that can store this treasure in the upper realm, I, a small mirror patrol, do not have such things. Mine is just an ordinary storage instrument." Miaokong shook the bracelet on his wrist and laughed, as if he was very proud of his acting skills just now.
Shi Mu's heart moved and he became wary of Miaokong.
This person is meticulous and cunning, so we must guard against him.
"Since this nine-headed Taotie has lost the power of action, we'd better kill it as soon as possible, so as not to have more trouble at night." He looked at the Taotie struggling on the ground in front of him, his eyes flashed, and said.
"Well, Daoyou is right, we..." Miaokong was stunned when he heard the words, and nodded immediately.
Before he finished speaking, the eyes of the Taotie beast in front of him suddenly opened, and a layer of dark light suddenly appeared on its body, and an inexplicable law of power came out from it.
Boom boom boom!
A series of muffled sounds came from its body, as if something was broken, and it was unknown what happened inside.
However, after the muffled sound, the surging breath in the body of the nine-headed Taotie suddenly eased, and the bulges on its body were also much less than before.
The nine-headed Taotie seemed to have forcibly suppressed the power of time in its body.
"What!" Miaokong saw this scene and his face changed drastically.
Whoosh!
The golden giant ape next to him said nothing, and his figure blurred, turning into a golden shadow that flew out like lightning, and rushed straight to the nine-headed Taotie.
Miaokong's face was ugly, and his figure immediately flew out.
The golden giant ape blossomed and instantly appeared near the nine-headed Taotie.
He chanted a spell and waved his arm. The six magic sticks in his hand, including the Sky-Flipping Stick, flew out and floated in the air.
At the same time, two more magic sticks flew out from Shi Mu.
The eight Xuantian treasures were spinning in the air, emitting stunning light and pressure, and then they immediately gathered together, turning into an eight-story pagoda ten thousand feet high in the blink of an eye.
The terrifying law fluctuations came from the pagoda, carrying a strong murderous aura.
Shi Mu opened his mouth and sprayed a stream of pure light, which sank into the eight-story pagoda, and at the same time, he pinched his fingers and swung them violently.
Boom!
The eight-story pagoda immediately grew a lot bigger again, and it fell from the sky and smashed into the head of the nine-headed Taotie. Circles of suffocating invisible waves rolled towards the surroundings.
The nine-headed Taotie was unable to move at this moment, and with a low roar, a variety of lights suddenly appeared on his head, and then suddenly rolled up and wrapped around his head.
Boom!
The eight-story pagoda fell like a meteorite, smashing hard on the head of the Taotie, making a shocking sound.
The light wrapped around the nine-headed Taotie's head only resisted the pagoda for a moment, and then it shattered immediately. The pagoda continued to hit the Taotie's head fiercely.
Crack!
A muffled sound was heard, and there was a faint shattering sound in the Taotie's head. The head was instantly covered with cracks, and a large amount of blood gushed out of the seven orifices. It looked dying.
However, the Taotie's head was incredibly hard and actually withstood the pagoda's earth-shattering blow.
But then, a crystal white light suddenly rose from its head, which was somewhat similar to the light of the water of time before. The cracks on the head quickly disappeared in the white light, and the dying head suddenly regained its vitality.
"This..." The golden giant ape's face changed color.
This is obviously not a healing ability, but a great magical power of time travel.
Miaokong's face changed drastically when he saw this scene.
"Hahaha! Miaokong, thank you for being so smart and throwing the Water of Time into my body, which allowed me to survive and finally comprehend the secret of the law of time. When I completely refine this Water of Time, it will be your death." The nine-headed Taotie laughed wildly, and crystal white light began to emerge from all parts of its body, covering its body.
Although the monstrous evil spirit on its body was still fluctuating, it had undergone other changes and slowly became pure and refined, just like when it refined the Water of Time before.
"Quick! We can't let it refine the Water of Time like this!" Miaokong's face turned pale and he roared.
Without him saying anything, Shi Mu had already taken action.
The eight-story pagoda suddenly soared into the sky again, and eight light circles bloomed at the same time. Wherever it passed, the originally chaotic space within a radius of ten thousand miles fluctuated violently again.
The pagoda spun around and shrank a lot, but its might was even greater. It fell with a bang and smashed into the head of the Nine-Headed Taotie again.
The Nine-Headed Taotie opened and closed its mouth slightly, chanting some spells. The white light on its body fluctuated and turned into a thin-looking light shield, covering its entire body. The light shield on its head was particularly thick.
Boom!
The pagoda hit the light shield, which shook violently and blocked the earth-shaking blow as if nothing had happened.
Shi Mu was stunned, but the Nine-Headed Taotie was relieved. The worry in his heart disappeared and he became ecstatic.
The power of the law of time was indeed powerful, far beyond its expectations. It easily blocked the powerful attack of the pagoda.
Miaokong also flew close at this moment. Seeing this scene, his face sank.
But he immediately snorted coldly, turned his hand to take out the green ring knife, and shook his wrist to stand the ring knife upright, pointing it straight to the sky.
A green rune emerged on the surface of the sword, and after a slight tremor, a green beam of light spurted out from the tip of the sword, rushing straight into the sky, and disappeared into the void above the head.
But the next moment, there was a loud thunder in the air!
The void suddenly wrinkled with a strong wind, and a dazzling light suddenly projected down, illuminating thousands of miles.
In the white light, a huge portal can be seen faintly, and behind the portal there are shadows, as if it is an extremely vast world, with countless mountains and rivers, thousands of Buddhist kingdoms, golden clouds floating, and heavy Sanskrit sounds, as if it is the holy land of Buddha in the upper world.
Miaokong's casting at this moment seems to have opened a portal to the upper world.
Streams of white spiritual light flew out of the huge portal, and then condensed into hundreds of huge white runes.
Miaokong muttered something, and his hands quickly pinched the formula like a wheel, and pointed out with one finger.
The white spiritual text in the air immediately turned, and then all flew down and sank into the green sword.
The sword, which was only a foot long, immediately emitted a buzzing sound after absorbing these white spiritual texts, and it grew rapidly, turning into a thousand-foot-high green sword in the blink of an eye.
It sounds long, but these things were completed in one or two breaths.
The nine-headed glutton felt the power of the giant sword, and although he was full of confidence in the law of time, he still couldn't help changing color.
Shi Mu didn't look at the green giant blade at this moment, but stood in the distance, muttering something, constantly pinching his hands, with an extremely focused expression, and he didn't seem to know the surrounding situation at all.
Since he saw the failure of the pagoda magic weapon, he immediately retreated and prepared for the next move.
The only more powerful attack was the Nine Yuan Ice and Fire Immortal Art.
However, he did not put the pagoda away, but continued to control it with a trace of mind, constantly smashing it down, smashing it wildly at the nine-headed Taotie.
It was just that without full mental control, the power of the pagoda was limited, and it could only cause a little trouble to the nine-headed Taotie.
Shi Mu pinched his hands together, forming a flame-shaped hand seal, and chanted a spell at the same time.
A gilded light flashed in the palm of his hand, and a flame-shaped rune emerged.
This rune looked completely different from ordinary spiritual patterns, much more complex, giving people a sense of ethereal and otherworldly.
Puff!
A ball of gilded flame emerged from the spiritual pattern of Shi Mu's palm, rolling endlessly, and spreading rapidly, soon covering his entire arm.
Although this gilded flame looked grand, it did not emit any heat.
Shi Mu's face was slightly pale, and most of the true energy in his body was sucked away by the gilded flame, but his expression was not dissatisfied at all, but pleasantly surprised.
He could clearly sense the power of the gilded flame, and it was indeed a fairy flame.
The gourd on his waist flashed with blue light, and a blue dragon flew out of it and landed nearby. It was Shui Lingzi.
Shui Lingzi looked solemn, and his body radiated blue light, and a strange cold power emanated from his body.
It flashed blue light at the center of its eyebrows, and a rune in the shape of a blue flame also emerged, which was very similar to the rune in Shi Mu's hand.
Puff!
The blue light of the spiritual pattern on Shui Lingzi's eyebrows suddenly lit up, and a blue ice flame flew out of the rune.
Like the gilded flame, the blue ice flame also did not emit any breath.
The golden and blue flames touched each other.
Shi Mu and Shui Lingzi's faces tightened at the same time. They recited spells quickly, cast spells one after another, and controlled their own flames, extremely nervous.
The golden blue flames slowly rotated, like the yin and yang of Tai Chi, entwined with each other without any conflict.
Shi Mu's face was happy, he breathed a sigh of relief, and raised his head.
This series of spells did not take much time for him, and ended almost at the same time as Miao Kong's spells.
Shi Mu's eyes fell on Miao Kong's green giant blade, and his eyes flashed.
