Chapter 343: Drag, Trap, Lock (2)

“Boom!”
A huge light wave with a diameter of nearly ten meters splashed out from the tip of Moon Fiend’s fingertip.
And the reaction of the Earth Puppet was really inferior to a single hair of Moon Fiend!
The light wave hit the large head of the Earth Puppet and instantly blasted it to the ground!
The lingering force of the light wave pressed down on the Earth Puppet like a mountain.
The ground began to crack.
The Earth Puppet was squeezed into the ground, sinking deeper and deeper!
The outer layer of the Divine Source Armor also gradually thinned under the violent destruction of the Moonlight Waves.
Just three seconds later, the armor was pierced…
Without the protection of the Divine Source, the Earth Puppet, with only the strength of a blood pattern, was instantly vaporized by the Moonlight Waves, disappearing without a trace.
“Trash!”
Moon Fiend sneered and shook her head, giving such an evaluation.
In the manor, Lu Ming also witnessed the entire process of Moon Fiend dominating the Earth Puppet.
“He was defeated faster than expected…”
Lu Ming muttered.
The Earth Puppet was Lu Ming’s primary means to stall Moon Fiend.
Using the power of the formation to create an Earth Puppet with the strength of a blood pattern and then adding Divine Source to it, allowing the Earth Puppet to threaten the Divine Spirit Realm on both offense and defense—this was Lu Ming’s original idea.
The idea was good and theoretically feasible.
However, the problem was that Lu Ming seemed to have underestimated the methods of the divine beings.
Jiu Han had said countless times that the essence of the Divine Spirit Realm was essentially an ancient realm or quasi-god, gaining the authority to use the divine source.
There was nothing particularly impressive about them.
Lu Ming listened to this and tentatively believed it.
But now, seeing Moon Fiend, Lu Ming realized that things were not that simple at all…
“Actually, Teacher Jiu Han is not entirely wrong.”
“The only deviation is the way the Divine Source is used.”
The Divine Source had a very strong personal imprint.
Whoever gave birth to the Divine Source would be able to use it.
Therefore, someone like Lu Ming, who could absorb the Divine Source of others and convert it into his own power, was highly valued by Jiu Han.
The problem lay in the application of this power.
Lu Ming’s way of using the Divine Source with the Earth Puppet was simple and crude—just possess the armor and it would be done!
This was also a helpless move. Lu Ming himself was unable to apply the Divine Source flexibly, so he naturally could not expect the Earth Puppet he created to do this.
In this usage, 100 units of Divine Sources could only unleash 1 effect.
On the other hand, true Divine Spirit Realm experts used Divine Source in a way similar to Source Power Skills— the Divine Source flowed within their bodies, transforming into energy akin to Source Power. Through a specific operational logic, the power of their attacks was maximized, or they could produce special effects.
0.01 units of Divine Source could unleash 1 effect in the hands of a divine being.
This back-and-forth revealed an outrageous disparity!
“But it did not matter,”
With another thought, with the level 589 Dao of array formation as the foundation, more Source Power arrays formations appeared in the Void Space in front of Lu Ming.
Numerous runes flickered, outlining strange arcs that combined into more array patterns. Lu Ming then sent these array patterns to the battlefield where Moon Fiend was located.
“I don’t have much, but I have enough Divine Source.”
“Aren’t you good at fighting? Just fight a few more to entertain me!”
“Trash!”
Looking at the place where the Earth Puppet disappeared, Moon Fiend sneered and gave such evaluation.
Just as Moon Fiend turned to study how to break through this place and head deeper into the Boshi Tower, a rumbling sound once again echoed beneath her feet.
This made Moon Fiend abruptly turn to look at the ground.
The ground shook continuously.
Soon, Earth Puppets ten meters tall rose from the ground one after another!
At the same time, array patterns appeared in the void space and landed on the Earth Puppets…
Golden light began to shine.
The mud puppets were like small suns emitting golden light.
Moon Fiend watched as the number of Earth Puppets gradually increased, and the golden light gradually spread from the surface of the Earth Puppets’ bodies, eventually connecting and forming a unified glow.
Until a dazzling array of several hundreds of Earth Puppets stood on the ground like an army, as if covering the earth with a golden carpet…
Moon Fiend’s face instantly turned pig liver-colored.
“How is this possible…”
“Howcan there be so many!!”
While she roared in disbelief, Lu Ming did not give Moon Fiend much time to react.
One earth puppet after another leaped from the ground, legs pushing off the earth.
For a moment, it was as if a golden wall was brazenly pressing towards Moon Fiend!
Since the quality was not enough, then he would make up for it with quantity!
Hundreds of Earth Puppets consumed only a few thousands of Divine Source Points!
This was an astronomical figure to any Divine Spirit Realm expert, but it was only 1% of Lu Ming’s accumulation over the past three years.
Moreover, it did not matter even if these Earth Puppets were not Moon Fiend’s match.
The LV589 Dao of array formation had already given Lu Ming a better way to deal with Moon Fiend.
The battle between Moon Fiend and the puppet legion erupted instantly.
The earth rumbled and the space exploded.
The tremendous energy ripples caused the Boshi Tower to tremble. However, a large number of array formations vaguely appeared from the Void Space and stabilized the spatial environment inside the Boshi Tower.
Moon Fiend did not care about all of this.
She herself did not have any array formation skills to rely on.
As a result, she could not discern the faint array formations around her that were subtly flashing, circulating, and based on a fixed pattern, becoming increasingly complex and massive!
Lu Ming, who was in the manor, entered the Void again.
“Add more points!”
Level 589 array formation level was still too low.
Lu Ming needed more.
The gap between the divine-empowered Earth Puppets and Moon Fiend was huge.
Unfortunately, this gap did not reach a qualitative change.
It was just a difference in their usage techniques, and both sides actually relied on the Divine Source.
This also meant that quantity could definitely crush Moon Fiend—it simply depended on how much Lu Ming was willing to invest.
The earth-shattering aftermath of their intense battle continued, causing everything in the surroundings to be destroyed.
However, under the influence of the Boshi Tower’s grand array, it was confined to this layer and could not affect anything else.
Moon Fiend, who was surrounded by the divine-empowered puppets, had completely lost her composure.
Her expression was solemn, devoid of joy or sorrow. But it was precisely because Moon Fiend was in this state that she could focus on mobilizing every trace of strength within her body.
This meant that she was serious… She had no choice but to be serious.
A steady stream of Mythical Puppets appeared around her. Moon Fiend could often repel the Mythical puppets with a single punch. She could even use some of her trump cards that were not considered lethal moves to completely shatter the Mythical Puppets…
However, there were really too many of them.
So many that Moon Fiend gradually felt exhaustion creeping in.
“I’ll die… I’ll be exhausted to death…”
Half an hour later, Moon Fiend made this judgment.
However, her means were limited and she really could not find a way to break out of the situation.
Just as Moon Fiend began to feel a sense of despair, a light suddenly flashed before her eyes.
The light instantly expanded, forming a light gate, and a manor appeared before Moon Fiend’s eyes.
In the empty space in front of the manor, a handsome young man anxiously looked at Moon Fiend and roared, “Lord Moon Fiend, come here! Come here quickly!”
Moon Fiend was first stunned, then, she gritted her teeth and forced the divine-empowered puppets back, and dashed into the light gate like lightning.
When Moon Fiend crossed the light gate and arrived at the manor, the light gate behind her instantly closed.
The man in the manor turned around to look at Moon Fiend and heaved a sigh of relief.
“I’m Lin Feng. Greetings, my Lord..”
