Chapter 104, Suppression
In mid-air, a slender, verdant vine twisted and turned like a serpent, its oval leaves a vibrant green. Opposite it, Ye Muxuan, clad in black armor, gripped the hilt of a sword in his right hand; the flaming blade was adorned with flame-shaped runes.
"I have no intention of harming you, but you'd better be sensible and not provoke me." Flame-shaped runes on the long, straight blade flickered with faint flames.
While the Void Blood Vine was indeed terrifying and enough to make Ye Muxuan wary, it wasn't to the point that he was truly unable to deal with it. Possessing two top-tier secret techniques, three powerful treasures, and an avatar whose combat strength was even greater than his main body, dealing with a World Lord-level life form in a secret realm was simply a matter of whether he was willing to do so.
In mid-air, the branches of the Void Blood Vine twisted wildly, and then gradually merged into the space.
Unsure if it had left, Ye Muxuan remained on guard while also keeping his eyes on the five colossal beasts on the cliff platform below. The enormous eyes of those five beasts held a ruthless ferocity, but to his surprise, they didn't seem to harbor much killing intent.
Ye Muxuan stepped through the void and walked step by step toward the cliff platform.
On the platform below, the giant eagle took the lead in flapping its wings, its wingspan reaching a hundred meters, its jet-black feathers standing on end. Then came the bear, its spear-like fur tips gleaming with a gray light.
As soon as Ye Muxuan landed on the platform, the giant bee's wings vibrated, and the golden and silver python flicked out its scarlet tongue.
Of the five giant beasts, only the giant tiger that climbed up first remained motionless, and its strength as an eighth-level Domain Lord was the strongest among them. However, Ye Muxuan could sense that the giant tiger's body, hidden beneath its fur, was gradually tensing, preparing to pounce.
A wisp of energy leaked out from the void.
Ye Muxuan slashed down with his flaming blade, a burst of flame tearing through space. At the same time, a wisp of silver light flashed in his left palm.
Although Ye Muxuan couldn't even activate the first layer of secret runes on that sealing treasure, he had already recognized it as his master, so he could still control the space-time contained within it. While this level of control couldn't suppress those Venerables who had fully comprehended the laws of space, it was enough to suppress a clone of the Void Blood Vine within it.
No matter how strong it is, it's still just a realm lord, or even just an avatar.
The aura of the Void Blood Vine disappeared, and Ye Muxuan could see the internal space through the silver cube-shaped treasure in his palm. In the world of ice and snow, the slender green vine revealed its true form. It was no longer the delicate appearance it had shown before, but a long green vine with a diameter of over a hundred meters and a length of tens of thousands of kilometers. There were also strands of blood-red secret patterns on the vine.
As the aura of the Void Blood Vine disappeared, a vine millions of kilometers long shot into the sky from a great distance away from Ye Muxuan. A Hongmeng King, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, was struck by this vine, and with just a casual blow, his divine body was instantly annihilated.
On the precipice platform, the giant tiger's limbs were taut, its eyes wide open, while the other four giant beasts were also poised to attack. This time was different from before; Ye Muxuan sensed an intense killing intent emanating from them.
Ye Muxuan put away his treasure, glanced at the five domain lord-level behemoths, and disappeared from the cliff platform.
……
Everywhere he looked, there was a glowing blue light. As Ye Muxuan flew through the air, he could clearly see that among the blue light covering the mountains and plains, there would occasionally be a "dark place". Only when he got closer would he find that it was a habitat, where the giant beasts he had seen before lived.
Not only giant tigers and bears, but also wolves, silver snakes, gray rabbits, porcupines, white sparrows, purple butterflies, and blue mantises were everywhere. I even saw a snow-white centipede that was over a thousand meters long!
These giant beasts, or rather, flesh-and-blood creatures, in each habitat quietly basked in the blue moonlight, showing no signs of fighting even when their natural enemies gathered together.
Ye Muxuan landed on a mountain peak that was hundreds of thousands of kilometers high. On the summit platform, which was tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter, four giant beasts were already perched there, bathing in the moonlight. Judging from the aura emanating from their bodies, each of them was at the immortal level.
A lithe celestial wolf, several thousand meters long, with bluish-gray fur but a patch of white down on its forehead; a ferocious blue mantis, hundreds of meters tall but with a slender body and two thick, scythe-like arms; a fiery firebird with a wingspan of over a thousand meters and dozens of bright red feathers on its head; and a red-eyed lightning rabbit, hundreds of meters long, with strong hind legs and silver arcs of electricity swirling around its body.
As Ye Muxuan landed, the four immortal-level behemoths on the summit platform merely glanced over, paying no attention to the little ape who had appeared there, and continued to quietly bask in the blue moonlight.
Suddenly, the fiery bird's gaze swept over the flaming blade in Ye Muxuan's hand, and there was an aura on it that terrified it to the very core of its being.
This ape attacked a descendant of that being!
The thought crossed his mind, and the next instant, the instinct he had developed over his long life made the firebird flap its wings, flames rose up, and a crimson fire feather transformed into a spear, thrusting straight at Ye Muxuan.
With his Flame Blade in hand, Ye Muxuan parried and shattered the spear formed from the fire feathers.
The firebird's sudden attack startled Sirius, Blue Mantis, and Lightning Rabbit. However, when the aura emanated from Ye Muxuan's flaming blade, the subconscious instincts that had developed over countless years caused the three giant beasts to act instantly.
Sirius raised its front paw and slapped it down. The scythe-like arm of the Green Mantis cleaved down, and the Lightning Rabbit pushed off with its hind legs, transforming into lightning as it charged straight at Sirius.
When its attack was blocked, the firebird spread its wings, flames surged all over its body, and dozens of its fiery red feathers rose into flames. It opened its mouth and spat out a flame that condensed into a divine spear and thrust forward.
Of the four giant beasts, the Firebird is the strongest, barely possessing the strength of a Marquis. The other three giant beasts, however, appear to have just broken through to the Immortal realm, possessing only the strength of a Primary Military Lord.
Ye Muxuan frowned slightly, pointing the flames rising from the tip of his blade forward, while at the same time, a flash of silver light appeared in his left palm.
The firebird, the siris, the blue mantis, and the lightning rabbit in mid-air all disappeared.
Ye Muxuan stared at the treasure in his left palm. This sealing treasure, combined with his ultimate technique of time stop, was now being used as a cage by him.
This is a supreme treasure of the sealing type, containing an independent space-time within. Even divine kingdom teleportation is impossible while suppressed inside, let alone instantaneous teleportation. Although Ye Muxuan has now recognized this treasure as his master, he cannot fully control it yet. If a Venerable who has fully comprehended the laws of space were inside, there would still be a chance to escape.
Of course, he doesn't have the power to suppress the Venerable One right now.
However, once Ye Muxuan fully masters it and is able to activate the third layer of secret runes, even a cosmic overlord trapped inside will be unable to escape.
