Chapter 705 The Incomprehensible Enemy
Chapter 705 The Incomprehensible Enemy
After all the divine weapons were destroyed, the entire star field returned to calm.
A moment later, the teleportation beams shone again amidst the intense light of the three intertwined stars.
Jemin, accompanied by four level-seven black giants, stepped out of the spatial teleportation array.
Because the transmission distance was too close, the blazing white starlight radiation rushed towards them like a tide, landing on the surface of the Guixu Armor and stirring up layers of fine, invisible ripples.
The void beneath their feet had no true "ground," only a slightly distorted expanse of air stirred by the combined gravity of the three stars. The remnants of the divine weapon floated in this expanse, slowly tumbling and dispersing with the pull of gravity, like a snowflake of torn metal.
Jemin stood on the edge of what should have been a satellite's rocky wreckage, and slowly opened his third eye.
In fact, even before he was teleported here, he already knew what had happened from the images transmitted back by the shuttle.
But when he actually stood on the scene and saw the wreckage with his own eyes, his expression gradually darkened.
Because... this place is so clean, so clean that it doesn't look like the ruins after a battle.
Given the strength of the divine weaponry, even if this place is filled with a large amount of stellar energy radiation, the power to destroy it would definitely be enough to leave a sufficiently deep mark.
If the attacker's skills are not high enough, they may even cause irreversible damage to the surrounding environment.
But now... there's really no decent "trace" to be found.
If it weren't for the constant, reliable transmission of information and location services from the shuttles, Jemin would have thought that the fragments of these divine weapons had drifted in from another battlefield.
He raised his hand, and a fragment of divine weaponry that had been drifting by automatically changed its trajectory and flew towards him, hovering in front of him.
After a careful examination, Jemin noticed that the break in the fragment was almost eerily smooth.
There were no jagged edges left by being torn apart by immense force, nor any traces of melting after being evaporated by high-temperature energy. It was as if the entire piece of matter had been directly "wiped away" from the world.
The smoothness of the fracture surface is even abnormal, as if a section was originally missing in the middle.
Jemin's three eyes scanned the area using various methods, but could only confirm: ...this damage could not have been caused by conventional means. Suddenly!
The unexpected happened without warning!
A level seven black giant standing on the perimeter suddenly exploded from the chest, without any warning whatsoever.
It was as if an invisible hand had reached deep into his body and precisely pierced through his core.
The black giant's chest cavity suddenly opened, letting out a furious roar, and liquid metal surged wildly, trying to repair the wound.
But in the next instant, the penetrating wound expanded into the collapse of the entire torso.
The injuries were so severe that they even triggered the Dao Soldier System instantly.
With a flash of golden light, the ten-thousand-meter-tall body was forcibly teleported back to the Purgatory Sulfur Plane.
Jemin's eyes instantly turned cold: "Be on alert!"
His voice resounded simultaneously in the mental seas of the other three level-seven black giants.
Lava Mountain and the other two black giants almost instinctively tightened their formation, immediately protecting Jemin in the center.
Three colossal beings deployed their defenses layer upon layer in the void, their chests fully open, their deep battle roars transforming into visible elemental shockwaves that spread outwards, attempting to force out the "hidden" enemies.
Jemin's third eye also shone brightly, and the sensory network of the incense and deity path simultaneously unfolded.
Every fragment, every ray of starlight, every phase level that might harbor an enemy was taken into account. But nothing was found.
Not only were there no enemies, but there were also no remnants of attacks, and not even a trace of "abnormal" smell.
"this……"
Jemin's face darkened, and he immediately activated his Omnipotent Eye without hesitation!
As a form of witchcraft specifically designed for research, using this in combat would be nothing short of asking for trouble!
After all, as its knowledge accumulates, the all-powerful eye can collect more and more information, and at this stage it has even reached an exaggerated level.
But now that we can't even find any trace of the enemy, there's nothing else to talk about.
The all-powerful eye was fully activated, and as the scope of the inspection rapidly expanded, a massive amount of information flooded into the mind.
With the help of the Destiny System and the Five Elements Rainbow Mirror to share the information, plus the talent obtained through the Entropy Brain to help organize it, and being in a state of Dao Integration, Jemin managed to sort out this information mixed with a lot of useless information.
But... we still found nothing!
"Damn it!" Jemin's face darkened.
The next instant, the chest of the second black giant exploded, and then the third one followed suit.
Like the first one, all of them were penetrated without any warning.
It was as if it didn't exist at all, yet it was also as if it were everywhere.
It doesn't attack from a certain direction, nor does it strike from any observable spatial level; instead, it directly injects "damage" into the target's body.
Lava Mountain was the last to fall.
He is larger and has a deeper core than the other three.
The moment he sensed danger, he immediately sank the energy core to the deepest part of his abdomen, where three layers of high-density liquid metal were stacked in front of him, creating a protective barrier as thick as a city wall.
But that unseen force still passed through it as easily as if it were through paper.
The protective layers and core shell are ineffective against such attacks.
puff!
A hole the size of his fist appeared in the center of the lava mountain's core.
His massive body jolted violently, and before being teleported away by the Dao Soldier System, his chest opened and closed one last time in the direction of Jemin, as if to warn the other party to be careful.
The instant Jieming was teleported away from Lava Mountain, he had already received all the combat data transmitted back by the opponent through the Dao Soldier System. Hit location, penetration path, the process of the protective layer's failure, the feedback curve of the energy absorption talent…
Ultimately, all the information pointed to the same conclusion: this was not any kind of attack he had perceived.
"This is troublesome..." he said, but a greedy look was uncontrollably revealed in Jemin's eyes.
For wizards, the incomprehensible unknown is an unimaginable temptation.
The next instant, his head and half of his body also disappeared.
At the moment when the Guixu Armor was on the verge of destruction, it burst out with a blinding light. The energy steady field was forcibly pushed to its limit, but the invisible force still seemed to bypass the "defense" and directly opened a blank in his body.
Dark golden divine light suddenly exploded from the remaining body, revealing its kilometer-tall true form in space.
Immediately afterwards, the dual Dharma form, five hundred kilometers high, suddenly unfolded, like an ancient statue rising again in the void, pressing down slightly on this star field.
But the enemy's attacks did not stop.
Just as the image of the Buddha was taking shape, a hole tens of kilometers wide was blasted open on the left side of its chest.
Golden light spilled wildly from the edge of the cave entrance, like a waterfall of lava bursting its banks.
Fortunately, the Dharma Form does not have a true "vital point"; it is a projection of power and laws, a pure embodiment of combat.
The part that is pierced will collapse, but only a portion of the energy will collapse.
In a short time, the hole that had been punched through the surface of the image began to shrink and heal rapidly.
But the attacks from the unknown enemy continued relentlessly.
Shoulders, abdomen, neck... pierced again and again, healed again and again.
But Jemin remained calm throughout.
Because he could clearly sense that the body-tempering method was evolving!
