Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 2340 Caught Off-guard

Chapter 2340  Caught Off-guard

A loud screech was let out by the maggot as it used its tens of tentacles and whipped at everyone it could reach.

~THUD~THUD~THUD~

The group defended as beast as they could, but were still knocked back similar to Lin Mu.

"AH! WHAT IS THIS ENERGY!?" Qiao De groaned in pain as he saw the grey energy penetrating his arm where he had been struck.

The same could be said for the others, as grey spots developed wherever they were touched. All this was accompanied by sharp pain that seemingly by pa.s.sed their defenses.

As immortals, they had better control over their body and even if they felt pain they could dull it to a certain extent. But none of those methods were working, and the pain just went through their body like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter.

~HUALA~

Only one person among them managed to defend it fully, which was none other than Lady Kang.

Three of the ornaments on her hair glowed, protecting her body in its entirety. But their power didn't last long, as they seemingly shattered under the effect of the grey energy.

Feeling the graveness of the situation, Lady Kang spared to effort and released stellar energy from her entire body.

"Stellar Outburst!" Lady Kang chanted, as her body turned into a ma.s.sive beacon of light. As if she were the moon itself, l.u.s.trous beams poured out of her, clearing out any remnants of the grey energy that were around her as well as the others. Even the tentacles were burned away by it, making the maggot screech in pain and anger.

~SCREECH~

Seeing the opportunity the Crown Prince knew they had to put distance between themselves and the maggot.

"Storm King Immortal Arts: Retreating Headwinds!" He made a sweeping gesture towards him with both hands causing strong winds to push everyone back by several hundred meters.

The others let themselves get carried by the winds, as they were still dealing with the pain. Thankfully their control over their Qi was not affected, thus they quickly suppressed the source of the pain. "Ziran! Purge it with Wood Elemental immortal Qi and Wood Dao Traces!" Crown Princess Shang realized something and quickly shouted. The others let themselves get carried by the winds, as they were still dealing with the pain. Thankfully their control over their Qi was not affected, thus they quickly suppressed the source of the pain. "Ziran! Purge it with Wood Elemental immortal Qi and Wood Dao Traces!" Crown Princess Shang realized something and quickly shouted. ~SHAHA~

Her hands glowed, as pure wood elemental immortal Qi mixed with Wood Dao Traces flowed out of them.

~HISS~

The mixture of energy was enough to pushed out the foreign grey energy and caused it to dissipate after leaving the Crown Princess's arms. Seeing this, Crown Prince Feng Shun also acted using his own Lightning and Wind Elemental Immortal Qi mixed with their Dao Traces.

~BZZT~

This worked to a certain extent, as the grey energy was burned out from his body too. Though it left a few injuries along the way, which irked the Crown Prince. 'This'll have to do for now.' He thought to himself.

"It works!" Ziran who had copied it earlier too found his arms to have returned to the normal state.

"Elder Hu, you do it too." Lady Kang urged.

The old man tried the same as fire elemental immortal Qi and Dao Traces mixed, pushing the grey energy out of his hands.

"It worked…" Elder Hu said though the pain was still present. "But it's not perfect." He looked at the burn marks on his hand that had been left behind while purging the grey energy.

~SCREECH~

The large maggot continued to screech while whipping its tentacles at the group who were now dodging them better than before. Though this was also due to the distance between them and the maggot.

The farther they were, the longer it took for the tentacles to reach them and it also allowed them to predict the trajectory better.

"Retreat further!" Crown Prince Feng Shun urged, knowing that it could get bad if they let the maggot got closer.

The group moved without speaking a word, while a few tried to resolve the grey energy that was still within their bodies.

~HUMM~

Monk Hushu chanted his scriptures, as the pure Buddhist energy seemingly purged the grey energy without a hitch. The effect was better than the others, being on a similar level to Ziran and Crown Princess's Shang's wood element as no aftereffects or mark were left.

Qiao De and Daoist Chu had a hardier time though, as they didn't have a suitable element to do it.

Same could be said for Min Ju who had the water element and barely pushed the grey energy out while leaving some injuries behind.

The group soon understood that some elements were better at purging the grey energy than others and the Buddhist Dao also worked on it nicely.

All this had happened in the span of half a minute, thus the group was still ab it overwhelmed by it all, not realizing what was happening high up in the sky.

Up there, Lin Mu had reached a height of over two thousand meters. But he wasn't there alone, as a red blur accompanied his ascent. This was of course none other than Little Shrubby who had quickly moved to help him.

"I'm fine Little Shrubby, you need to gather the others and take them away." Lin Mu quickly spoke while his mind a.n.a.lyzed the situation. "Though wait until I tell you to do so." He added

"Alright!" Little Shrubby was not one to doubt and followed Lin Mu's orders.

He had been with him long enough to know that Lin Mu was not one to fail after something like this. It might have been a surprise, but he would overcome it.

'That is very similar to the skill that Yao Changying used back then.' Lin Mu thought after seeing the maggot. 'And that is definitely the Withering Dao… I need to get rid of it in one go.' He thought before glancing at Little Shrubby.

~WHOOSH~

The beast understood the gaze and went to follow his orders.

On the other hand, Lin Mu's eyes turned furious as his legs started to enlarge. The True Earth Dao Embryo also appeared above him, multiplying his weight before he started to fall.

"FALLING SKY LANCE!"
