Chapter 2253 Urgent Defense



Chapter 2253  Urgent Defense

The power of the explosion was massive and shook the entire area.

"DEFEND!" Lin Mu shouted as he increased the searing energy around him while also strengthening the armor.

~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

"Great Fulgur Ward!" Crown Prince Feng Shun set up the first line of defense.

Crown Princess Shang and Ziran combined their skills and set up a wooden barrier around them. Elder Hu and Min Ju activated their own defensive skills while Qiao De and Daoist Chu used several sets of defensive talismans.

Lady Kang activated her defensive immortal tools, creating another barrier around her and her two attendants.

But setting up the barriers was only a temporary measure, as the power of the explosion was far greater than they had thought.

~BANG~BANG~BANG~

Lin Mu and the others were pushed back from the shockwave and felt the baleful energy wash over them.

~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~

The initial barriers broke rather quickly as the group struggled against it.

"The barriers are being corroded!" Lady Kang warned as she felt the dark energy assaulting them.

"What is this baleful energy?" Daoist Chu was confused.

Lin Mu was wondering the same, but couldn't spare an effort in thinking too much. He stimulated his vitality as a red aura surrounded him. The vibrant vitality protected him and helped him resist the dark energy better while also improving his strength.

~TREMBLE~

Lin Mu stopped controlling his weight and let his legs dig down into the ground, making him stable in one spot.

'This will only get worse.' Lin Mu could sense the force increasing. 'This isn't just explosion… it's like a dam has broken.' He thought, looking up at the sky.

There was no way to use Immortal sense since it would be corroded instantly by the dark energy, and with the darkness covering the sky, one couldn't use naked eyes to watch either.

~SHUA~

As such, Lin Mu quickly activated his Spatial Perception, allowing him to see through it all. He gazed at the contrasting flow of Qi and the dark energy that was present against the backdrop of the Spatial Fabric, showing him a rather alarming scene.

He could see a small 'dot' from which an almost endless amount of energy seemed to be surging. 'Whatever was inside that rock wasn't normal, and it isn't stopping at all.' Lin Mu had no idea how long this would last, but knew that if it intensified, things would get worse for them. 'Retreating will make things difficult too… we'll be hit from the back.' With how strong the impact was, their defensive skills would need to be active at all times.

And the strong defensive skills weren't exactly suitable for mobile use. The ones the group had used were the fastest ones to be deployed, but there was no guarantee they would last long.

Thinking of all this, Lin Mu quickly came up with a simple plan. "Line up behind me!" Lin Mu spoke before the sound of heartbeats could be heard.

~LUBDUB~LUBDUB~LUBDUB~

A second later, a brown Dao Shell rose from Lin Mu's body. It had a unique shape and inside it a Dao Embryo in the shape of a heart seemed to be beating. It was none other than the True Earth Heart Dao Embryo!

~SHUA~

Lin Mu controlled his Dao Embryo and began to set up his strongest defenses. He transformed the Dao Shell, as rocks and solid started to form around it before taking a new shape.

"Earthen Armament Aspect: Great Shield Form!" Lin Mu chanted.

A five meters tall and equally wide shield was created in front of him.

"Expand!" but Lin Mu knew it wouldn't be enough to defend all of them, thus he began to increase its size.

~LUBDUB~LUBDUB~LUBDUB~

The Earth Heart inside it beat with great might, its every beat sounding like the rumbling of thunder as strong Earth Dao Traces started to spread. The Dao Traces managed to create their own bubble of influence, preventing the dark energy from affecting them.

Soon the Great Shield had expanded twice its size, becoming ten meters wide and tall!

It was also very thick, reaching the one meter mark.

The True Earth Heart Embryo couldn't be seen inside it, but the reverberations from every heartbeat were heard perfectly.

He grasped the great shield from the back and planted his legs firmly as spikes grew from the bottom of the armor as well as his back.

~SHING~SHING~SHING~

The spikes dug into the ground, forming a stable framework around him. But this along was not enough as Lin Mu knew it would eventually be pushed back. "ASPECT OF HEAVINESS: HUNDRED FOLD!" He activated his second Dao Skill, multiplying both his as well as the Great Shield's weight.

~BOOM~

~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~

~TREMBLE~

The entire ground around Lin Mu sank in, forming a depression of at least a hundred meters. Of course, along with him the others sank in too, but it actually helped them since the wave of Dark energy was now washing above their heads.

This was just temporary though, and the flow would soon shift on them.

"NOW!" Lin Mu signaled for them to set up their better defuses.

They did just that and made the best defenses they could in that time. While it might not be as good as what they did for the cage when descending into the world, it was still good enough.

Lady Kang even took it a step further, by using one of her special constellation skills.

Four stars rose above her and glowed with stellar light.

"88 Constellation Series: Eighty Fourth Form- Firm Shield!" Lady Kang chanted as the four stars created an illusory figure of a shield.

The shield expanded rapidly and came to a stop right above where Lin Mu had created his own shield.

Lin Mu saw this and had a hint of what she was doing.

"Reinforcing Scutum!" Lady Kang said, causing the illusory shield to merge with Lin Mu's shield!

~HUALA~
