Chapter 871 - 423: King-grade Source Beast, The King of Emperor's Abyss (Double Chapter)
"Yes."
Zhui Yi, as an outer incarnation, had combat power indistinguishable from Chen Mo. With the Emperor Bell hanging overhead, he activated the Shrinking Ruler to make a spatial leap, appearing in front of the Sea King Palace.
Up until now, everything around was calm, with no waves stirred.
The more tranquil the scene, the more unusual it felt to Chen Mo, much like the calm before the storm.
Sure enough, as Zhui Yi gradually approached the main gate of the Sea King's central hall, a bizarre Array suddenly arose within Sea King City.
With the operation of the Array, Chen Mo clearly perceived Zhui Yi's attributes beginning to plummet crazily, dropping straight by half.
At this time, Zhui Yi's attributes:
'Origin Life Force': 19,000 points
'Origin Cosmic Power': 850 points
'Attack Amplification': 825 points
'Defense Amplification': 1225 points
'Origin Cosmic Energy': 81,000 points
The Origin Life Force and Origin Cosmic Energy remained unchanged, but the critical Origin Cosmic Power, Attack Amplification, and Defense Amplification all fell by half.
These were important components of combat power, and a sudden drop by half had an extremely significant impact on battle capability.
"Sure enough, there's a trap!"
Seeing Zhui Yi caught, Sun Wu, standing outside the Array's influence range, immediately took out his staff, standing beside Chen Mo, ready for battle.
Meanwhile, the top floor of the Sea King Palace suddenly opened, and a blue-skinned monster, approximately five meters tall, covered in hard scales with eight arms, slowly flew out from it.
The blue creature's scales fit its robust muscles, like shimmering solid armor.
Its five-meter stature, combined with the sturdy muscles throughout its body, seemed extremely fierce.
The outline of the creature's head was hideous, with two eyes as large as gemstones burning with cold blue flames, exuding endless determination and intimidation.
The eight robust arms were spread out on its sides, each covered in hard scales, and each holding a weapon of different styles.
The creature emitted a powerful and oppressive aura, making the surrounding seawater seem to freeze.
As the monster flew away from the Sea King Palace, it left behind a trail of blue light, like a meteor cutting across the deep sea night sky.
This was the aura of a King-grade Source Beast.
The moment it appeared, Chen Mo immediately examined its attributes.

One can see that the attributes of a King-grade Source Beast are exceptionally powerful.
As for regular attributes, there's not much to say; most Source Beasts are more or less similar.
As a King-grade Source Beast, the King of Emperor's Abyss's attributes don't differ greatly from other King-grade Source Beasts.
All have attribute growth values of 100 points.
However, the King of Emperor's Abyss has additional strengths, namely its skills and the effects of its weapons.
It has five Active skills, five Passive skills, and eight weapons.
Moreover, these Active skills, Passive skills, and weapons have some synergistic effects.
This provides the King of Emperor's Abyss with a massive boost in combat power.
When combined with the Array set up in Sea King City to halve the enemy's attributes, the King of Emperor's Abyss is nearly invincible within Sea King City.
Even someone like Chen Mo, whose attributes far exceed his, will be at a disadvantage when entering Sea King City.
To defeat him, brute force is not advisable.
One must find a way to first dismantle the Array he has set.
Chen Mo immediately asked Sun Wu, "Monkey King, considering the strength of this guy's Array, do we have any way to secretly destroy it? Otherwise, with this Array disrupting us, if he stays within it, we might really struggle to deal with him."
"To break the Array, one typically needs an Array-Breaking Stone, but my master once taught me some Array-Breaking Techniques. If you can keep him distracted so he doesn't notice me, I could break his Array."
"How long do you need?"
"About three minutes."
"That's no problem. Even with my attributes halved, I still have 1225 points in Defense Amplification. It's not easy for me to take him down, but it's also not easy for him to defeat me. I'll take care of stalling him with my outer incarnation while you focus on breaking the Array."
With that said, Chen Mo flew directly upwards.
His confidence stemmed not only from his attribute strength but also from his top-tier first-tier cosmic secret treasure.
Chen Mo had relied on the Heaven Shaking ability of the Emperor Bell to swiftly eliminate his opponents all along.
In truth, his defensive capability was no less significant.
In particular, over time, people only noticed the Heaven Shaking power of the Emperor Bell, when in actuality, it possessed a total of six capabilities. Apart from Heaven Shaking, the other five were all defensive and supportive in nature.
[God Suppressing]: Guards the mind, immunizing against all abnormal effects, this immunity is first-tier cosmic secret treasure level.
[Shocking Soul]: Stuns enemies, effect ignoring all sub-first-tier cosmic secret treasure tiers.
[Life Safeguarding]: The protective divine clock places one in Invincible State for 5 seconds, and at the conclusion of this state, Origin Life Force is fully restored.
[Space Rending]: Breaks surrounding space-time, nullifying all enemy spatial abilities, and allows free spatial traversal under the cover of the divine clock, effect is first-tier cosmic secret treasure level.
[Timeless]: Immune to any time stop or slow effects, capacity is first-tier cosmic secret treasure level.
Among these, Space Rending and Timeless are temporarily useless in this battle, but the first three are extremely valuable.
