Chapter 2485 A Trapped Temple
Chapter 2485 A Trapped Temple
The sudden surge of Withering Energy was astonishing and Lin Mu had not expected to encounter it here. After all, it was something they hadn't seen anyone other than those affiliated with Yao Changying using it. And even if this place was something she was seeking out, it wasn't like there was going to be more of it here. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
It wasn't a common form of energy in the first place anyway.
~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~
Right away, around ten of the talisman barriers around Lin Mu broke apart as the dense Withering Energy washed over him. ~RUMBLE~
Once it swept past him, the Withering Energy hit the barrier formations and was stopped temporarily.
~CRACK~
But it soon stated to crack, as the energy ate away at the barrier.
"Dammit, stabilize it!" Daoist Chu quickly rushed to repair the formation but couldn't do much before the energy finally tore a hole in it.
~CRASH~
The first formation barrier was broken and it rushed toward the second.
"Get back!" Crown Prince Feng Shun made a dragging gesture, causing a gust of wind to pull the man.
~WHOOSH~
~CRACK~
Daoist Chu barely avoided the incoming Withering Energy by an inch, while a talisman barrio on him also cracked.
"Crown Princess Shang get ready to assist Lin Mu!" Ziran shouted before releasing a pair of vines from his hand.
"Yes!" Crown Princess Shang replied as a group of flowers seemingly sprouted from her hands.
~TWANG~
Ziran shot the pair of vines towards Lin Mu and they pushed through the Withering Energy. The energy of course, tried to eat away at the vines too, but Ziran resisted it by simply supplying more of his Wood Elemental Immortal Qi, trying to simply overpower the Withering Energy.
And sure enough, it managed to hold on just enough for him to latch onto Lin Mu.
"Now!" Ziran ordered as he pulled the vines back.
"Cleansing Pollen Surge!" Crown Princess Shang chanted as she directed the flowers towards the front.
~HUALA~
The flowers in her hands seemingly sprayed out white pollen that immediately filled the air in front. ~WHOOSH~
The vines pulled Lin Mu through the two barriers and he was inundated in the white pollen. The others could finally see him again and saw that all the tassellings barriers had been destroyed, but the Searing Hot energy of his Longgui Bulwark Armor had managed to protect him along with the other measures he had taken.
~SHA~SHA~SHA~
The Cleansing Pollen Surge seemingly washed away the remnants of the Withering Energy that were left on Lin Mu's body. Thankfully it had not managed to enter it, so he was unharmed.
~THUD~
Lin Mu finally landed next to them and they took a breath of relief.
"Are you fine, Lin Mu!?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked.
"I'm good." Lin Mu replied, taking a breath as well. "The exposure was short enough that it didn't get through." He added.
He had been in contact with it less than ten seconds and had been pulled back by the others within that time, so he had managed to endure it with no harm. But there was no telling if it would be the same once the barriers collapsed.
"What do we do now?" Crown Princess Shang questioned. "This much Withering Energy would eat away at walls and collapse the entire cave if we let it be." She said with anxiety.
Even if the rock seemed to be solid and would be able to endure attacks from other immortals, it wasn't something that could stand up against Withering Energy that could even harm Lin Mu.
If the entire cave collapsed there, they would likely lose whatever was inside the temple.
They could not afford this when they were so close to getting it. Plus, the effort of obtaining it showed that whatever was inside was highly valuable to Yao Changying, and as such, they couldn't let it go to waste.
"We will have to cleanse it right here and now." Lin Mu said as a plan formed in his mind. "Monk Hushu, set up a Buddhist Veil of protection around this. Ziran and Crown Princess Shang can cover it with their restraining wood skills.
Daoist Chu reinforced the barrier as much as you can. Crown Prince Feng Shun and I will try to burn away as much of the Withering Energy as we can." He instructed.
"Alright!" they all said in unison, hoping that it would work.
They had done something like this before, but the time for preparation they had this time was quite less. 'Little Shrubby, come down!' Lin Mu urged. 'His flames will be needed here too.' He knew that with the improved power of Little Shrubby's flames, it would be possible to burn away the Withering Energy.
~RUSTLE~
Ziran and Crown Princess Shang acted first. The half elf extended hundreds of thick vines that wrapped around the barrier that was barely managing to hold up while the Crown Princess threw out handfuls of seeds that sprouted and turned into thick thorns that grew between the gaps.
This fully packed the new wooden barrier, while Monk Hushu began chanting.
~HUALA~
His Golden Vajra Idol Dao Embryo appeared behind him while a glow surrounded him.
"Golden Vajra Illumination!" The monk chanted as the barrier was quickly covered in a golden veil.
This veil was the most effective on Withering Energy, as the damage to the Barrier was stopped almost immediately. This gave Daoist Chu the time to reinforce it and repair some of the damage that was done to it.
~ROAR~
Little Shrubby arrived in this time too and knew what was needed to be done.
"With me!" Lin Mu said as a searing hot energy flowed out of his hands. "Storm King Immortal Arts: Wrath bolt!" Crown Prince Feng Shun released a thick bolt of lightning that spread into hundreds of branches.
~GUAAAAAA~
Little Shrubby on the other hand, breathed out a ray of hot flames that melted everything in its path.
All three attacks bore through the barrier and entered the Withering Energy.
