Chapter 1167 Earthen Devastator

With Little Shrubby holding up Master Cull Mountain, Lin Mu was free to attack the twenty one Dao Treading realm cultivators. While their numbers meant that Lin Mu might not be able to kill them all quickly, it also meant that they wouldnʼt be able to do much to him either.

The Dao Treading realm cultivators were currently gathering in a certain order and setting up a formation array. Each of the Dao Treading realm cultivator was a node of the array and it was hard to tell what kind of a formation array it was.

Lin Wu would have liked to stop them before they managed to set it up, but the constant movements of Master Cull Mountain and Little Shrubby had made it difficult. But now that they had settled on one part of the battlefield, Lin Mu could finally act.

ʼFirst to get them split up…ʼ Lin Mu thought as he rose up in the sky.

His hand was pulled back as vital essence and spirit Qi stirred within it. But the spirit Qi this time was different, and was not attribute less. And neither was it fire or metal elemental spirit Qi.

This time, the spirit Qi swirling within his hand was brown in color and gave off a feeling of heaviness.

Boulder Collapsing Fist: Third Form- Earthen Devastator!

Lin Mu punched out as a brown ribbon of energy shot out from his fist. On the first glance it looked the ribbon was a muddy stream, but it seemed to be changing its state, turning from solid to liquid and vice a versa.

This was the Devastator that was made with Earth spirit Qi in it. Lin Mu hadnʼt really used it in a battle before, even if he had been able to for a long time, because the way it worked was rather different.

It wasnʼt like the Flaming Devastator or the Metal devastator that could be used on a single target directly.

And if one looked at the area that Lin Mu was aiming at right now, they would find that it wasnʼt actually any enemy. But rather an empty spot on the barren ground.

”Careful!” The Dao Treading realm cultivators of the Northern Tribes shouted.

But much to their surprise, the attack didnʼt strike them.

”What?” The Dao Treading realm were confused at first, but then their pupils constricted.

The brown ribbon of energy directly entered the ground, and no explosion or loud sound was heard when it did. It was vastly different from the other three variants of the devastation, and no quick effect was displayed either.

For about ten seconds, the Dao Treading realm cultivators were alert and watched out for any sneak attacks, wondering if Lin Mu was simply pretending. But once the ten second passed they met the true power of the attack.

~RUMBLE~

The ground shook as if a quake was approaching and then in the next second, hundreds of spikes rose up from the ground, spreading out in a circle from the site of entry.

The spikes grew faster than what the Dao Treading realm could react to and quickly spread to a radius of about two hundred meters!

Only those that were outside this area actually managed to dodge this attack, but the rest were not so fortunate.

”ARGH!”

”NO!”

Pain filled cries were heard as the Dao Treading realm cultivators were stabbed and struck by the spikes. The spikes were of various thickness and sharpness. Some were as thin as a chopstick at the top, while others were as thick as a barrel.

Such differences made it hard for the Dao Treading realm to react.

If they defended using some barrier or other spirit tools, they would be pierced by the sharp spikes while some would be knocked up into the sky from the blunt barrel sized spikes.

Either way, they were hurt and their process of making an array was foiled.

”Dammit! The nodes are all misaligned now!” The Dao Treading realm that were out of the radius of the attack complained.

Since the spikes all shifted the ground, the nodes that were set up for the arrays were now all moved around, thereby making them useless.

”Perfect!” Lin Wu said in joy as his goal was accomplished.

The destruction of the array was his main goal right now, and killing the Dao Treading realm could come after that. After all, if the array was established and was controlled by the twenty one Dao Treading realm cultivators, its power would be really great.

If it was an offensive array, it would even be able to get through Lin Muʼs defenses.

Lin Mu certainly didnʼt want that and got rid of it using the Earthen Devastator.

Though it had actually not killed any of the Dao Treading realm cultivators that were stuck by it. That was the issue with the Earthen Devastator. It was actually the weakest one out of the four variants.

But its other effects could be really useful like in the current situation. Not to mention, even if it had not killed any of the Dao Treading realm cultivators, it had still managed to injure them.

Lin Mu teleported next to one of the Dao Treading realm and slashed with his short sword, chopping off the arm of the man.

~SPLAT~

”ARGH! WHY YOU!!” The man cried in pain as he quickly ate an alchemical pill to stop the bleeding.

Unfortunately for him, Lin Mu was able to teleport around and moved onto the next target.

~BOOM~

~BAM~

~BANG~

Lin Muʼs golden fists rained down upon the different Dao Treading realm cultivators, either hitting their bodies, defensive spirit tools or Qi skills. Some of these broke apart while some managed to hold back.

ʼJust how strong is this man? How can his fists withstand so many of our defensive methods?ʼ The Dao Treading realm cultivators were left wondering.

Lin Mu didnʼt give them much of a chance to think though and let his fists do the talking.
