Chapter 1435: Chapter 690: Breaking Free

"Good!"

In shock, seeing Chen Mu single-handedly withstand the Black Snake Beast, the Wind Association members, led by Wind Divine Monarch, felt their spirits uplifted!

There’s a chance now!

The Black Snake Beast originally hovered outside the Insect Tide, making it difficult for them to break through. Even if they forcibly penetrated the tide, they would be blocked by the Black Snake Beast and pushed back into the tide. But now, Chen Mu had held off the Black Snake Beast, greatly reducing the pressure ahead, and if they could breach the insect tide encirclement, they’d have a chance to escape.

At this moment, everyone felt invigorated, facing the hope that emerged in the desperate situation, naturally giving their all. In this instant, nearly all the Divine Monarchs of the Wind Association unleashed their desperate bottom-line tactics.

Boom!!!

Amidst the chaotic flying lights, the Void exploded and shattered. From the east, more than thirty exotic insects were gradually converging, and with the combined effort of everyone, they were forcibly suppressed, while the pervasive gray poisonous fog was torn apart!

A gap appeared again in the encirclement, and without any hesitation, everyone swarmed towards the gap, quickly slipping through and escaping the encirclement of the Insect Tide one after another.

"Squeak squeak!"

From the insect tide spreading from other directions, a higher-ranked exotic insect uttered an angry squeak, and a mass of exotic insects crazily surrounded them from all sides, spraying gray poisonous fog even before getting close, trying to seal off the torn gap.

However, sealing off the torn gap ultimately required time. The Wind Divine Monarch and others, all Nine Layer Heavens Perfection Divine Monarchs, in almost an instant, had already escaped the encirclement.

Buzz buzz.

Gray fog spread, compressing from all directions, and the gap rapidly shrank visibly.

But now, it was evidently too late. Harnessing Void Divine Ability, the Wind Divine Monarch abruptly teleported out. He didn’t pause, immediately arriving beside Chen Mu, raising his Lifebound Divine Weapon, the Treasure Seal.

"Heaven Cap Seal!"

The Wind Divine Monarch let out a low shout, and the weapon burst forth with brilliant light, striking towards the Black Snake Beast.

The Black Snake Beast and Chen Mu were engaged in a stalemate. Although in terms of strength, the Wind Divine Monarch was clearly weaker than both Chen Mu and the Black Snake Beast, his decisive action broke the battle’s balance, joining Chen Mu to forcibly shatter the annihilating black line of the Black Snake Beast, striking its body!

"Hiss hiss!"

The Black Snake Beast let out an angry hiss, but was knocked back by the attack, its entire body recoiling.

Being a powerful exotic beast with high Primordial Power, killing it with a single attack was naturally impossible, even hurting it proved difficult. But neither Chen Mu nor the Wind Divine Monarch aimed to kill the Black Snake Beast at that moment; retreating it was already sufficient.

Neither Chen Mu nor the Wind Divine Monarch had any intention to prolong the battle. After briefly forcing back the Black Snake Beast, they immediately withdrew away from the Wuxiang River bank, followed closely by Guanglie Divine Monarch and the others.

"Hiss!"

"Squeak squeak!"

The Black Snake Beast and the insect tide were visibly furious, chasing closely behind the retreating group.

However, at this point, everyone had escaped the encirclement. Once freed from the encirclement, their ability to flee was naturally unparalleled. Having reached Nine Layer Heavens Perfection, whether from Void Lineage or Creation Lineage, slaughter techniques aside, their self-preservation methods were diverse, each demonstrating remarkable skills.

Despite Guanglie Divine Monarch and others not possessing Void Shifting abilities in the special region of Wuxiang City, each had their own ways to flee. One suddenly grew wings on their back, another summoned a mysterious light to directly rise into the air, swiftly escaping towards the distance.

While the insect tide is terrifying, its threat greatly diminishes once its encirclement is breached, as individual insects within it are not particularly strong, slightly weaker than ordinary exotic beasts, and naturally not fast.

In mere moments,

the overwhelming insect tide was quickly left far behind.

Only the Black Snake Beast continued to keep up with the group’s escape pace, relentlessly chasing from behind.

But at this moment,

everyone had basically breathed a sigh of relief.

Having escaped the Insect Tide, the Black Snake Beast, although dangerous, didn’t pose a mortal threat to them. Even without Chen Mu, the team had the ability to retreat from the Black Snake Beast jointly.

Soon,

after fleeing further, the insect tide completely vanished from sight, leaving only the Black Snake Beast in pursuit. At this point, the Wind Divine Monarch glanced at Chen Mu, who returned the gaze.

After exchanging a look across the distance, they simultaneously turned back, each unleashing their Void techniques towards the pursuing Black Snake Beast.

"Universal Silence!"

"Returning Ruins!"

A blurry micro-light that resembled the embryonic form of the universe spread several meters, intertwining with a chaotic shadow of ruin, and swiftly engulfed the Black Snake Beast.

The Black Snake Beast plunged into it, emitting an angry hiss, spraying out annihilating black lines from its mouth, forcibly tearing apart the suppressive Void Force, quickly creating several gaps.
