Chapter 2332 - 2330: Sub-space

The battle erupted, Moonless's secret technique unfolded, the unusual scene of Oceanic Sky-Clear Moon covered a vast area, with chilly moonlight pouring down, many puppets were restricted, their speed and attack power drastically reduced.

In contrast, Solar Flames transformed in appearance and burst forth with full force, a fierce punch aimed at Song Weiwei.

The gap of nearly fifty forces was truly immense, the Sword Shower shattered instantly, yet the momentum of that fist remained unabated.

At this moment, Song Weiwei likely lacked her own spiritual intelligence, all her actions were under the control of the jellyfish star beast. The jellyfish star beast didn't care about the other puppets' lives, but valued Song Weiwei significantly, as she was the strongest puppet under its command, thus it would never let her die easily.

But under Moonless's secret technique, even if it wanted to control Song Weiwei to evade, it was too late.

Yet it didn't control only one Song Weiwei...

Numerous attacks targeted Solar Flames, and the remaining puppets erupted with their desperate secret techniques.

Solar Flames felt a chill in his heart, in this situation, even if he could fiercely kill Song Weiwei, he himself would not have a good outcome. Ten or more Peak Dao Fusion puppets jointly besieged him, even he couldn't withstand it, once his protective Dao force was breached, the consequences would be dire.

Helplessly, he forced himself to turn around, abandoning the thorough kill of Song Weiwei, and instead started dealing with another puppet.

While the intense battle was ongoing here, on the Baiyu Platform, Lu Ye, with the help of Qi, quietly paid attention to the sludge star beast soaking in the Dao Pool.

He realized he underestimated this team of star beasts, not just him, everyone underestimated them.

The difficulty of dealing with this sludge star beast, Lu Ye personally experienced, it could split itself when facing danger, turning its whole body into countless smaller forms, thus avoiding danger, even escaping.

As for the jellyfish star beast, it controlled so many puppets, especially those at the Dao Fusion level, it was unimaginable, if not seen with one's own eyes, Lu Ye would never believe such star beasts existed.

In truth, these two were the greatest enemies in the Star Abyss Heir contest.

The jellyfish star beast was currently dealing with Solar Flames and Moonless, leaving a sludge star beast here, undoubtedly this was a good opportunity.

Lu Ye didn't want to miss it, nor did he want to wait.

Because if left unchecked, it would continuously recover its Dao force, making it harder to deal with later.

Mental Consciousness subtly surged, audio transmission to nearby Su Yan, after a brief exchange, Lu Ye felt assured!

In the Dao Pool, the sludge star beast's massive body spread out completely, looking like a pool of mud, the intense aura surrounding it visible to the naked eye, distorting the space.

While it leisurely refined the continuously emerging Dao Fish in the Dao Pool, suddenly a gleam of golden light flickered.

The sludge star beast startled, it was extremely familiar with this golden light, having seen Su Yan's display of power earlier, and was later hunted by Lu Ye and Su Yan together, so upon seeing the golden light, it instantly gained Insight into who was ambushing it.

However, relatively speaking, it wasn't really afraid of Su Yan, due to its unique nature, most attacks in this Star Abyss had little effect on it. The previous chase and its resulting embarrassment were merely illusions.

So even realizing Su Yan's ambush, it wasn't overly anxious, its grotesque body slowly piled up, two black-hole-like eyes appeared on its form.

The golden light fell, but bizarrely didn't strike the sludge star beast, instead landed on a corner of the Baiyu Platform.

In an instant, multiple points of golden light...

All fell into the other three corners of the Baiyu Platform.

The golden light didn't dissipate but instead interlinked and spread out, creating a golden light curtain enveloping the entire Baiyu Platform, turning it into a cage.

This was not a trap array, but Su Yan used her Innate Divine Ability to seal off this space, because it wasn't a formation, its duration was limited, but it was already enough!

The biggest issue with the sludge star beast was its ability to split into countless entities, but as long as it's trapped here, no matter how many it splits into, Lu Ye could kill it.

Behind Qi, Lu Ye's figure moved, darting to the location where the Talent Tree Avatar previously died, reaching out and grabbing!

The part of the Talent Tree that separated finally got reclaimed.

He never left this place because he had been thinking about reclaiming this part of the Talent Tree, to him, the doppelganger was expendable, it didn't matter, as long as he could recover this part of the Talent Tree.

He swiftly condensed another Talent Tree Avatar again.

The main body moved once more, Lu Ye was already closing in on the sludge star beast, which at this moment clearly reacted as well, its two black-hole-like eyes had no pupils, yet showed an expression of extreme astonishment, as if it couldn't understand why it would see a lively Lu Ye here!

Earlier it hid in the shadows, seeing clearly that Lu Ye was supposed to be dead!

Precisely because it realized these powerful enemies were either dead or fled, it and its companion dared emerge to fight against Solar Flames and Moonless, thinking that once they were dealt with, they could determine the situation.

Who would have thought, the supposedly dead Lu Ye suddenly appeared again.

The saber light fell with a world-shattering force, Heaven and Earth lost color.

This strike could be said to be Lu Ye's full exertion, but when the saber light struck the sludge star beast, it had no effect, its twisting, squirming body directly absorbed the saber light completely.

This... the situation is not quite what I expected.

Lu Ye frowned tightly. Not long ago, while chasing it, its body kept splitting continuously, and in the end, he didn't know into how many parts it divided, fleeing in all directions, and it couldn't be completely killed.

If it were only this, with the restriction set by Su Yan, no matter how much it split, it would be of no avail, because there's no chance for it to escape, and eventually, it would be annihilated completely.

But it was only at this moment that Lu Ye realized that this sludge star beast is far more difficult to handle than he imagined. Even his full-powered saber light strike on its body caused no ripple.

Even if it were at the peak of Dao Fusion, it shouldn't have such an astounding performance.

Lu Ye swung his long blade horizontally, and a few more fierce saber lights slashed out.

All slashing onto the sludge star beast, yet the result was equally ineffective.

Golden light flickered as Su Yan's attack arrived. With the Talent Tree Avatar assisting nearby, she had no worry about the consumption of Dao force.

This finally had some effect.

The sludge star beast was beaten into a flight in all directions...

But that's about it!

All the attacks landed on it seemed to be absorbed, not causing the slightest damage to the sludge star beast, yet it was flustered, wanting to flee this place, but the entire Baiyu Platform was already sealed. Unless it broke through Su Yan's Innate Divine Ability, where else could it escape to?

The scene was extremely comical.

"Senior Brother Lu, this isn't the way to go on, it has a sub-space inside!" Su Yan suddenly spoke, addressing the doppelganger.

"Sub-space?" The doppelganger frowned.

"You can regard it as another space. You should have seen the earlier scene of the Solar Flames being swallowed, and it previously hid so many puppets inside, this is definitely not something an ordinary secret technique can achieve, this sub-space should be its Innate Divine Ability!"

Lu Ye indeed saw the scene where the Solar Flames were swallowed, which is why he didn't want to engage in close combat with the sludge star beast and instead used saber light.

Just to avoid following in the Solar Flames' footsteps.

"Our attacks seem to land on it, but actually they are transferred to the sub-space, which is why it looks as if they're absorbed!"

In terms of understanding the Path of Space, one could say no one at the Dao Fusion level could surpass Su Yan, her powerful bloodline is all about controlling space.

So she quickly saw the problem in just a short time.

"Although the sub-space is mystical, it's not without solutions. In this situation, the best approach is from the inside."

Lu Ye understood: "I'll kill my way in!"

He could be certain that if he engaged in close combat with this sludge star beast, the opponent would surely swallow him, and then once inside that sub-space, he could take targeted action.

Su Yan said, "Together! The sub-space kind of Innate Divine Ability is not just a simple space, but also has a refining effect. Our attacks that fall into it will be refined into nothingness, and if you fall into it, you will also be refined. If you can't escape in time, then it's dangerous."

Therefore, she dared not let Lu Ye go in alone, but with her accompanying him, it was different.

Not to mention her profound attainment in the Path of Space. With Lu Ye's Dao force reserves as support, she is confident to break open the seal of the sub-space just with her furious offensives.

With the decision made, there was no further hesitation.

Su Yan took a step forward, blocking the sludge star beast's path of escape and, at the same time, Lu Ye himself moved to stand beside Su Yan.

Since they were to enter that sub-space together with Su Yan, naturally, it couldn't be the doppelganger, because the sub-space is considered another space. If the doppelganger entered, it would lose contact with the original, becoming a living dead unable to cooperate with Su Yan, so it had to be the original that acted.

The sludge star beast was clearly taken aback, for a moment not knowing what to do, and instinctively split its body.

When the sludge star beast passed through the place where the two stood, the original spot was already empty.

Without Su Yan's control, the restriction sealing the Baiyu Platform also disappeared.

Only then did the sludge star beast look around in dismay, confirming that the enemies were indeed swallowed by it, and only then did it wobble toward the Dao Pool.

Its courage was unbelievably small; ever since Lu Ye made his move, it only fled without any intent to counterattack, but once the crisis passed, it forgot the previous encounter, clearly indicating its spiritual intelligence had issues.

In the extremely dark space, Lu Ye and Su Yan appeared simultaneously, immediately overwhelmed by a stench so foul it made their scalps tingle; this odor penetrated even if they sealed their mouth and nose, being an erosion of their psyche.

The entire space was filled with a rotting and decaying aura, and this aura was swiftly eroding Lu Ye and Su Yan's bodies.

It could be foreseen that even if external attacks were transferred here by the sludge star beast, they would quickly dissolve under such strange erosion.

This also was the reason why the sludge star beast remained unscathed despite enduring so many attacks earlier.
