At this moment, facing the curious Chen Yiming, the shadow monster was silent for a moment. It spread its wings and coiled its huge tail. The huge weapons in its eight arms were all pointed forward.

This could be a threat through force, or it might really be about to launch an attack. It would not give him a second chance to go to outer space.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming cursed under his breath. “I only asked two questions. It’s too impatient.”

Of course, he would not sit back and do nothing.

“Giant transformation!”

“Sword, come!”

Facing the shadow monster with unknown strength, Chen Yiming had no intention of holding back.

A light flashed in the sky, and the spiritual figure turned into a huge sword and descended from the sky.

At the same time, Chen Yiming transformed into a 100-meter-tall giant and leaped into the air.

Although his size was still smaller than the shadow monster, which was equivalent to about five or six of him in his giant form, the contrast was not as stark.

On the battlefield, two huge creatures were confronting each other from a distance. Their invisible auras collided, dividing the battlefield into two. The number of weapons in their hands was eight against one.

The mysterious symbols on the surface of the shadow monster’s weapons seemed to have been activated, emitting a dazzling light. The air became blurry and unstable, and layers of invisible ripples spread out.

The huge sword in Chen Yiming’s hand didn’t back down either.

The mysterious symbols engraved on it moved as if they were alive. An invisible barrier appeared, blocking out all the ripples.

“Hmm? I didn’t expect a living treasure to appear on a low-level planet. What a waste. It’ll be mine.”

A thought shot over.

In the next moment, the shadow monster remained at its original spot. The scene flashed past, and the sky changed color.

Chen Yiming quickly observed the changes in his surroundings. Sanjiang City, which was originally behind him, was nowhere to be seen. Everything was red, similar to the illusion created by the goat head.

The only difference was that when facing the goat’s head, he knew very well that it was an illusion that could be destroyed with a light strike.

But now, it was as if he had really been dragged into another world.

He quickly communicated with the figure in his mind: What’s the situation now?

The figure in his mind: There is no qualitative improvement in the level of its strength. It should be a special way to use the mysterious symbols.

Chen Yiming: Did I fall into the opponent’s trap?

The figure in his mind: There’s a 90% chance that this is the case.

After the conversation ended, Chen Yiming felt a surge of anger.

Comparing the black tide and the blue planet, one was at an unknown level in the galaxy, and the other was at a level where its power was still restricted to the planet. The difference was unimaginable, but they actually used underhanded methods to trick him.

From the feedback he received from the spiritual figure, he estimated that it should have used the power of the mysterious symbols to set up a technique similar to an array formation or domain.

Such an environment was definitely disadvantageous to him, but it would definitely be beneficial to the shadow monster.

And the situation was exactly like that.

When his anger surged, this emotion did not accumulate in his body. Instead, it was suddenly and inexplicably absorbed by something.

Chen Yiming entered a meditative state. His mind felt weak and he couldn’t muster up any energy, let alone his fighting spirit, high focus, and adaptability.

“If it was anyone else, they would definitely be at the mercy of the shadow monster.”

The rapid recovery ability of the Undying Body talent was activated, and Chen Yiming’s face turned red again.

Even if the opponent was slightly stronger than the shadow monster, if they could not resolve the problem of their emotions being suddenly absorbed, their combat state would be greatly affected. There was a high chance that the shadow monster would defeat them.

However, it didn’t have much effect on Chen Yiming.

“He actually recovered so quickly!”

A thought came from above Chen Yiming’s head.

“But it’s useless. Your strength will continue to weaken, and mine will continue to increase.”

In an instant, a shadow of a figure with huge wings spread out appeared on the ground. A huge saber slashed down from the sky. At the same time, mysterious symbols appeared in the air one after another, forming a cage.

As a result, he was trapped in a small space. Even if he wanted to dodge, there was no room for him to do so.

Chen Yiming forced himself to remain calm.

The other party’s unnecessary words in the battle seemed to be trying to shake his confidence.

However, what the other party did not expect was that he did not need to do anything. The huge sword in his hand automatically faced the enemy and slashed at the long saber that was slashing down from the sky.

“Boom!”

A white light exploded, temporarily covering the red world. Both sides had their line of sight blocked at the same time.

At the same time, the mysterious symbols in the air shattered, and the cage dissipated. The huge saber flew back to the shadow monster.

The moment the white light weakened and disappeared, a corner of the real world was revealed to Chen Yiming.

“As expected, we are still where we were. I wasn’t transferred to some unknown location.”

He confirmed that it was something similar to an array formation or domain that had changed the environment in a certain area. He felt much more relaxed. It was not the worst case scenario he had imagined.

Otherwise, even if he came out alive, he would not know how to return to the blue planet.

However, before Chen Yiming could catch his breath, another attack came his way.

This time, not only was there a huge saber, but there was also a huge hammer.

The mysterious symbols turned into a cage that restrained Chen Yiming. At the same time, the mysterious symbols on the back of the hammer turned into flames that shot out, as if a propulsion device had been installed on it.

Chen Yiming looked up and the huge sword in his hand flew into the sky.

The cage broke apart again.

Immediately after.

“Boom!”

The huge sword fought one against two. First, it sent the huge saber flying, then it stabbed the huge hammer that had yet to reach its maximum power, causing the mysterious symbols on the back to break into pieces.

Chen Yiming, who was a spectator, saw the situation clearly.

In terms of cultivation level, the shadow monster was undoubtedly at the level of the inscription realm. However, even so, it was clearly weaker than the sword spirit who had special abilities to increase its talent.

The mysterious symbols on the huge sword formed by the sword spirit had never shown any signs of breaking.

On the other hand, the cage created by the huge saber and the flames from the huge hammer all collapsed under the attack.

In fact, even though it was one against two, the mysterious symbols on the other party’s weapons were flickering, as if they were showing signs of damage from the head-on collision.

Time quickly passed by.

The huge sword and eight different weapons went from one against one to one against eight. They clashed dozens of times, then hundreds of times.

The shadow monster’s eight arms seemed to be able to do eight things at once. It swung its eight weapons in turns, and it also seemed to be able to replenish its strength from the red world, allowing it to maintain its peak condition.

Slowly, the red world began to shake. Cracks appeared in the air, revealing a corner of the real world.

“Impossible!”

“How can a low-level planet give birth to an existence that can fight against me at the same level?”

After not being able to take down the huge sword for a long time, the shadow monster that had yet to make a move gave off a fluctuation in its energy.

What Chen Yiming didn’t know was that the other party was already starting to panic.

The red world also had its limits. Unless the battle ended quickly, it would be broken sooner or later. At that time, the outcome would be unpredictable.

The shadow monster firmly believed that while it was easy to escape, the natives of the low-level planets could not have enough power to stop it.

The stalemate continued.

At some point, the red world could no longer withstand the collision between the two sides and completely shattered like a glass mirror.

In the outside world, the forest and Sanjiang City were still the same as before, and they were not affected by the battle. All the impact of the battle was limited to the red world.

“We’re out?”

After returning to the real world, Chen Yiming glanced towards Sanjiang City.

For a battle at the level of the inscription realm, a distance of more than 10 kilometers was not far at all.

The power of nature was like a natural disaster. If it was hit by the aftershock of the battle, the entire city might be razed to the ground. No one would survive.

At this moment, the air suddenly started to flow abnormally. Mysterious symbols appeared in the air, and each mysterious symbol turned into a stream of Sword Aura.

Similar to the appearance of the red world, the scene flashed past. The sky changed color, and as far as the eye could see, it was filled with silver streams of light.

Chen Yiming smiled when he received the good news from the spiritual figure. “I was right to invest most of my Skill Points into my swordsmanship talent. The spiritual figure’s comprehension abilities have never disappointed me.”

He looked at the shadow monster that was surrounded by the Sword Aura.

The other party did not seem to have reacted and was forced to stay in its place. The shadow energy covering its body fluctuated visibly. It was unknown if it was preparing some kind of big move or if it was really panicking.

With this thought, Chen Yiming instructed the figure in his mind to attack without caring about anything else.

In an instant, the void seemed to crack open. Every mysterious symbol turned into a sword that flew out, and the shadow monster was completely engulfed in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, a terrifying collision was erupting. The shadow energy was dissipating, the mysterious symbols were shattering, and cracks were appearing on the eight weapons.

The shadow energy on the monster’s face fluctuated violently.

Its huge wings could only defend against attacks from one direction, and its eight arms and eight weapons could not completely defend it in the other directions, causing the injuries on its body to increase.

To it, it was already unbelievable that a native from a low-level planet could simply use mysterious symbols to strengthen himself after breaking through to the inscription realm.

Without the inherited abilities, how could the power of nature be so easy for him to control?

It did not dare to imagine what it would be like if he could also set up a large array formation with mysterious symbols like it could.

“Could there be a corresponding inherited ability left behind on this planet?”

The shadow monster could only think in this way. It did not think that it was due to its abilities being used in battle and secretly learned by the opponent.

Not long after, “Boom!” A wave of air exploded.

The terrifying force directly shattered one of the shadow monster’s arms, and the huge saber it was holding was also shattered.

The weapon made from the mysterious symbols finally exceeded its limit after numerous clashes.

In the distance, Chen Yiming looked pained.

He could only hope that not all eight weapons were destroyed. Be it for his own use or for research, their value was unbelievably high.

At the same time, he felt relieved. So what if it came from outer space? It still couldn’t win against someone at the same level.

Just as the shadow monster seemed to be unable to withstand it any longer, a thought sounded. “Let’s make peace and pretend nothing happened. How about that?”

Chen Yiming received it but pretended not to hear it.

You want peace if you can’t win? Do you think I’m stupid? Do you think I’ll wait for you to go back and get reinforcements?

He did not believe that the female spirit would urge him to escape from the black tide by going into outer space if the shadow monster could let today’s matter go so easily.

He was 100% sure that he would be facing an enemy of a higher level next time if he let it go.

Chen Yiming remained calm and thought about how to trick it into telling him some useful information.

Suddenly, the strength of the shadow monster’s aura increased drastically, and its entire body swelled up.

Without any warning, it exploded, breaking open a small area in the formation created by the spiritual figure.

Due to his carelessness, the remaining balls of shadow energy seized the opportunity to escape.

At the same time, the air in the space-travel passage in the southwest no-man’s-land was abnormally distorted, as if something was responding to the change.

Chen Yiming turned around and saw dozens of black lights rushing out of the space-travel passage.

“Black light?”

Caught off guard, the balls of shadow energy and black light were free to fly into the sky.

“Are they escaping to the moon?”

Chen Yiming looked up and saw the direction they were heading in. He made a simple calculation and confirmed his opponents’ destination.

To be honest, he was very surprised. He did not expect the shadow monsters to have secretly set up a base on the moon. It had to be known that the moon was circling the blue planet.

The spiritual figure retracted the formation and turned into a sharp sword that shot into the sky to chase after them.

However, as soon as it left the atmosphere, something strange happened.

On the moon, a circle of red light lit up all around it. Looking straight at it, it seemed to have a red ring surrounding it.

The balls of shadow energy and all the black light seemed to have been enhanced by an unknown power, and their speed increased by several levels.

They arrived in front of the moon almost instantly and were swallowed by the shadow of a huge mouth.

Chen Yiming was dumbfounded.

Not only was he stunned by the scene, but he also felt a terrifying power brewing in the shadow mouth.

The next moment.

The huge mouth chewed and spat out an invisible ripple, targeting the spiritual figure that was chasing after it.

“I can’t block it!”

He could feel the endless negative emotions, including fear, resentment, and horror. This was a corruption at the spiritual level that was transformed from the huge mouth.

Chen Yiming’s intuition alerted him.

He subconsciously communicated with the figure in his mind and asked it to quickly dodge.

However, the spiritual figure did not dodge. Instead, it turned into a huge sword formation that expanded to its maximum range.

An invisible ripple swept past. The sword formation in the atmosphere only lasted for less than a second before it was corroded by the black aura and disappeared.

After this attack, the shadow mouth gradually faded away, and the burning red ring on the moon also disappeared.

“We were almost wiped out.”

Chen Yiming heaved a sigh of relief.

The spiritual figure’s connection with him had not been broken, so he knew very well that it had escaped this attack.

Although it could be recreated from Chen Yiming’s consciousness, Chen Yiming didn’t know how long it would take for it to split out again.

Facing the black tide, the spiritual figure was the strongest combatant. He could not afford to lose it.

After waiting for a while, a stream of Sword Aura descended from the sky and landed beside Chen Yiming. The figure in his mind entered his spiritual world.

The spiritual figure turned into a sword formation, and most of it was destroyed by the invisible ripples.

However, as long as they were not completely wiped out, they would be able to recover quickly after returning to the spiritual world to recuperate under the enhancement of the Undying Body talent.

It was not a big problem for him to suffer extremely serious spiritual damage.
