Chapter 788 Where Did You Get This Thing

Chen Tian faced the combined attack of three individuals. This was within his calculations, as defeating them one-on-one would have been too easy. Chen Tian had a plan for not immediately killing these three demonic beasts. He watched as the three, two young men and one young woman, surrounded him. The instant collision of four figures produced an explosion. Boom, boom, boom, doves flew out from the explosion. The Divine Spirit Shield on his arm barely resisted the incoming attacks. This opponent was truly tenacious.

This was Pigeon's thought. Initially, Pigeon had been close to the Nine-Headed Serpent, but unexpectedly, the Nine-Headed Serpent could shoot out stinger-like projectiles from its entire body. Due to the close proximity, Pigeon could only take cover behind the shield, his figure constantly retreating. Pigeon's Divine Spirit Shield rang with a 'ding, ding, ding' sound. The stingers struck the shield but could not penetrate even the shield's defense, let alone cause damage. After Pigeon's defense lasted for several minutes, the shield slowly moved aside. Pigeon's eyes were covered, and his mental power enveloped the surroundings.

Having his eyes covered was not a problem. The Nine-Headed Serpent's eyes possessed the ability to slow Pigeon down. This ability was triggered under a specific condition: all nine heads of the Nine-Headed Serpent must focus their eyes on Pigeon's eyes. By covering his eyes, as long as Pigeon did not let the Nine-Headed Serpent see his eyes, he would not be affected by that buff. Furthermore, powerful cultivators used divine sense to battle, and Pigeon's mental power was sufficient to act as his eyes. One of the Nine-Headed Serpent's abilities was now rendered ineffective. Previously, Pigeon had struggled to get close to the Nine-Headed Serpent's body, but now he had been pushed back again.

This Nine-Headed Serpent was truly difficult to deal with. Pigeon stood in mid-air, his pure white wings unfurled behind him. He exerted his full power in the void. Of course, the Nine-Headed Serpent was also at its full power. Pigeon did not restrict the Nine-Headed Serpent's abilities. In the void, the attacks unleashed by the Nine-Headed Serpent were far more potent than before. This was because in the void, the Nine-Headed Serpent had no reservations. Previously, its attacks were always constrained by the fear of its self-created formation being completely shattered by its own power.

In the void, there were no reservations. It could be said that both Pigeon and the Nine-Headed Serpent were in their prime. Pigeon's wings spread, soaring through the air, his figure transforming into a streak of light as he attacked the Nine-Headed Serpent. The Nine-Headed Serpent, seeing Pigeon, unleashed a barrage of elemental attacks from its nine heads, like bullets fired without restraint: fireballs, tornadoes, ice spikes, and iron thorns shot out madly, like a machine gun.

In the span of one second, Pigeon's vision was completely covered by dense attacks. Pigeon's wings flickered, and his figure sidestepped, a sharp spike whizzing past his cheek. His figure then rolled four or five times, ice spikes grazing his body as he swung his long sword in continuous slashes. Fireballs exploded. As for the tornado, he directly entered its core, passing through it as it dissipated. Pigeon was already well aware of the Nine-Headed Serpent's abilities, making them easy to counter. Pigeon's figure moved continuously. The Nine-Headed Serpent knew Pigeon's intentions and could not allow him to succeed. Its heads and entire body were covered in a silver sheen. Pigeon's Divine Spirit Sword arrived in front of the Nine-Headed Serpent, and a single strike fell towards its head, still producing a metallic clang.

The Nine-Headed Serpent's heads all raised. Seeing this, Pigeon's figure retreated. As the Nine-Headed Serpent raised its heads, it spat out a torrent of attacks from its mouths. Pigeon, at a very close distance, had no choice but to defend himself. He was clad in armor, his shield held firmly in front of him. After the frenzied assault from its nine heads, unexpectedly, the nine heads pressed together, blocked by the shield. Pigeon could not see this phenomenon; his divine sense was filled with attacks. The shield vigorously resisted, and Pigeon's figure slowly retreated.

Suddenly, a beam of light shot out from his divine sense. Pigeon's figure was sent flying with a 'poof'. The Divine Spirit Shield was directly flung away. The Divine Spirit Shield stabilized itself in the air and moved towards Pigeon. Meanwhile, Pigeon's figure continued to retreat. The beam of light struck Pigeon's armor, and the armor, unable to withstand the impact, caused his figure to lose control.

The Divine Spirit Shield arrived at the center of the beam of light, forcibly resisting it. With the beam of light intercepted, Pigeon managed to steady himself. He moved to the Divine Spirit Shield, increasing its power and defense exponentially. The power of this beam of light was immense; Pigeon's Divine Spirit Shield could only barely resist it. This was another ability of the Nine-Headed Serpent.

At this moment, the Nine-Headed Serpent's nine heads were pressed together, and this beam of light was condensed and fired from its nine mouths. Pigeon had not anticipated the Nine-Headed Serpent possessing such an ability. The Nine-Headed Serpent's energy, due to its nine heads, could be seen as nine different entities. The combined power of its nine heads was nine times that of before. This move, which Pigeon could have easily countered before, became incredibly difficult to deal with after being amplified ninefold.

Pigeon knew this situation was unsustainable. He poured power into his Divine Spirit Sword and casually threw it out, transforming into a streak of light that shot towards the center of the nine heads. Coincidentally, one of the heads was struck by Pigeon's Divine Spirit Sword, breaking the close proximity of the nine heads. The beam of light immediately vanished. Pigeon's lips curved slightly as he identified the head responsible for the energy cannon ability. Next, he would have to target and sever the heads responsible for the other abilities one by one.

With his Divine Spirit Shield in hand, the Divine Spirit Sword, summoned, returned to Pigeon's grasp. Pigeon looked at the Nine-Headed Serpent before him. Currently, he was aware of the head with the energy cannon ability and the head with the fireball ability. He was unaware of the other abilities.

However, Pigeon decided to strike first. Knowing two of its abilities was enough to target two. It would be best for Pigeon if the Nine-Headed Serpent lost an ability. If a head was severed, its ability would cease to exist. This was the Nine-Headed Serpent's weakness. Although the nine heads shared abilities, if the head controlling a specific ability was severed, the other heads would also lose that ability.

With his Divine Spirit Sword in hand, Pigeon's figure reacted. The Nine-Headed Serpent, aware of its situation, could not allow Pigeon to get close. Its massive body sprouted iron thorns, which grew rapidly, filling its entire back. All the thorns on its back shot out, instantly forming a wave of iron thorns that surged towards Pigeon. Seeing this move, Pigeon inserted his Divine Spirit Sword into his Divine Spirit Shield and slowly merged his two wings with the Divine Spirit Shield. Pigeon's Divine Spirit Shield pushed downwards with both hands.

The Divine Spirit Shield's mass increased, becoming like a towering mountain. Its defense multiplied by a hundredfold. The wave of iron thorns collided with the Divine Spirit Shield, which merely swayed twice, remaining unyielding.

Pigeon, seeing this, although he knew the power of the Nine-Headed Serpent's move must be considerable, did not expect it to be this formidable. The Divine Spirit Shield almost couldn't hold on. Truly worthy of being a divine beast.

The Nine-Headed Serpent's offense was not yet over; as it shot out thorns, it seemed as if they would never end. Pigeon did not wish to remain behind the shield indefinitely. The opponent's attacks were incessant, and the Divine Spirit Shield, after all, had its limits. It could not withstand attacks forever. In Pigeon's current state, he could not use both hands to attack. Once he disengaged, the Divine Spirit Shield would revert to its normal form, and that would be the true crisis.

With this move, Pigeon could only defend. It was a gamble to see who would break first: Chen Tian's endurance or the Nine-Headed Serpent's continuous attack.

Pigeon did not believe the Nine-Headed Serpent could maintain its output indefinitely. There had to be an energy consumption issue.

Pigeon's own energy was being depleted, and he couldn't believe the Nine-Headed Serpent's energy wouldn't be. Such a move must surely be energy-consuming.

As expected, after the one hundred and seventh wave of attacks, the iron thorns ceased. One of the Nine-Headed Serpent's heads slowly lost its color. Pigeon's complexion was also not good, appearing slightly pale. One hundred and seven waves of attacks; he dared not imagine that such an assault had been launched over a hundred times. Pigeon had valiantly defended.

If this were to be told, no one would believe such a battle could occur. Pigeon's divine sense recorded the weakened head. This head was likely the one responsible for the iron thorn ability. Now, he knew of three ability-controlling heads, with six more yet unknown.

The Nine-Headed Serpent's recovery speed was faster than Pigeon's, which was illogical. The energy consumed by the Nine-Headed Serpent's attack was greater than the energy Pigeon used for defense, yet its recovery speed was faster.

Pigeon observed carefully and quickly found the reason. One of the Nine-Headed Serpent's heads was emitting a glow. Perhaps this head's ability was recovery, which greatly accelerated the Nine-Headed Serpent's recuperation.

Being a divine beast, coupled with the aid of a recovery ability, its recovery was even faster.

"Who knew this Nine-Headed Serpent's abilities would be so high-end."

Ice and fire elements, area-of-effect attacks, iron thorns, defense, recovery. Pigeon only had to think about it to deem the ability configuration monstrous. However, the Nine-Headed Serpent's nine abilities were completely random. Did this Nine-Headed Serpent have exceptionally good luck? Its entire body was equipped with powerful abilities.

Pigeon was somewhat speechless. If he had such luck, perhaps the Pure Heaven Lock would have actively sought him out.

Fantasy was beautiful, but reality was cruel.

Pigeon still had to slowly search for the Pure Heaven Lock. This was the first step in saving the Numerals. If he couldn't find it, the Numerals would disappear.

Now that he knew the Nine-Headed Serpent's abilities, Pigeon decided to take the initiative. While Pigeon's energy recovery speed was not as fast as the Nine-Headed Serpent's, the Nine-Headed Serpent was immobile during its recovery. Although its nine heads shared a single consciousness, they did not possess nine separate thoughts. In this state, the Nine-Headed Serpent could only focus on recovery and could not attack. This was an opportunity. Whether Pigeon could sever a head depended on this strike.

Pigeon unleashed his speed, using his remaining strength to burst forward. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of the Nine-Headed Serpent. This time, without the Nine-Headed Serpent's obstruction, he reached it very quickly. A sword strike descended. Just as Pigeon was about to succeed, the head he was aiming for instantly turned silver. The sword strike produced a clang, and Pigeon was sent flying.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. Pigeon was still in a daze. His attack had been ineffective and was repelled, yet the creature was supposed to be fully focused on recovering energy!

Could it be that this creature could multitask!

Pigeon could only think this. This Nine-Headed Serpent had definitely existed for more than a few thousand years. Despite its lack of combat experience, its thinking ability was undoubtedly on par with an adult.

Pigeon stabilized his figure and carefully observed the Nine-Headed Serpent.

In the void, at Chen Tian's feet lay two corpses. Chen Tian held a young man firmly by the neck, and Chen Tian said indifferently, "I'll ask one last time, where did you get this thing?"

Chen Tian's killing intent flared. In Chen Tian's hand was a piece of flesh, human flesh. The reason Chen Tian was enraged was precisely this.

"I, I, I can't say!"

"Then you shall die."

The sound from the neck was melodious. Pleasant? A pleasant sound meant a good neck.

Chen Tian had been fighting these three individuals when, out of nowhere, they had gone mad and killed the other three with a single move.

Chen Tian looked at the wounded flesh, tears streaming from his eyes.

As the void disappeared, Chen Tian's speed erupted. Disregarding the rules about flying, he directly soared into the sky towards the city.

Let the trouble come. After all, the entire world was about to be overturned. Why couldn't it be me who overturned the world?
