"Move."

It was as if he held the mandate of heaven, his words becoming law.

As the Envoy's voice fell, a large, shriveled, viscous, and turbid colloid suddenly appeared before Du En. Its purple and red hues were somewhat dim, yet evil monsters were still crawling out of it—dozens in the blink of an eye. It was none other than the Evil Monster Brood-Nest that should have been slowly wriggling at the very back.

Just as Meng Changqing could use the evil remnants within the Brood-Nest as a springboard to influence the Grudge-Fiends, the Envoy, having twice contacted and repelled the Grudge-Fiends, could also use these evil remnants as a springboard to indirectly influence the Evil Monster Brood-Nest.

Furthermore, because it was not an existence on the level of a Grudge-Fiend, but essentially just a fused mass of evil cultivator's evil objects that had now bloomed to produce the vast majority of the evil monsters, it was easily shifted over and blocked in front of Du En.

Facing this, he remained calm. A hundred dharma artifacts were unleashed at once, transforming into a rotating awl that plunged headlong into it without the slightest hesitation.

"Hiss!"

One evil monster possessed eight long arms and two dwarf legs. At this moment, it crawled with its hands, its small legs dangling, and lunged over with a hiss, actually managing to hold off the piercing awl of a hundred dharma artifacts for a moment.

Consequently, the number of dharma artifacts began to increase rapidly.

If one hundred were not enough, then four hundred!

Like a giant whale hunting, it suddenly burst out from the sea, winning by its own sheer mass.

The suddenly expanded four hundred dharma artifacts directly opened their "mouths" to bite and shatter this evil monster, crushing its evil nature.

But this was only one evil monster. Now there were more, as well as the Brood-Nest itself, which had stopped spawning monsters and instead grown a giant mouth, intending to swallow the delicious prey that had delivered itself to its door.

"Ha!"

The guards shouted in unison, taking turns to provide support. In an instant, dharma artifacts shot out and spells flew together, blasting apart the encirclement of dozens of evil monsters.

Trimming the wings, covering the gaps, and ensuring the breakout could proceed smoothly—this was the task they were responsible for.

As for Du En, he was only responsible for driving straight in. His expression remained unchanged as he stared at the evil monster enemies directly ahead. The four hundred dharma artifacts condensed into one spot, turning directly into a ruthless meat grinder, shredding and crushing all the evil monsters that had become sparse directly in front of him.

This shuttle of theirs continued to advance along with Du En.

Fresh blood and minced flesh flew everywhere. The evil nature was not completely shredded and was still adhering and reorganizing, but it would take a little time.

The Envoy stepped over calmly, and they vanished into ashes.

He watched Du En's performance without the slightest surprise.

Because only the "Minor Accomplishment" stage of the Hundred-Control Art was worthy of him calling it "elegant"—that is to say, barely worth looking at.

Although Du En tried to conceal his background, whether it was the dexterity in the subtle movements of the dharma artifacts, the overall consumption of mana, or other details, all could expose his actual attainments; it could not deceive his eyes at all.

Tang Yiping could not tell, and at this moment, he could not help but be dumbfounded. Because of this, he was almost submerged by dozens of evil monsters, and it was only by reacting in time that he was able to blast them to pieces.

"How truly unlucky!"

"However, that is all he can do. After all, even I find that colloidal evil monster further ahead to be thorny!"

Tang Yiping could not help but say this. When he had the leisure to look again, he saw Du En's aura surge, directly reaching the Foundation Establishment Perfection. The group of dharma artifacts suddenly spread out to provide cover, while he himself wrapped in earthen armor, leaped up, and stepped on the dharma artifacts beneath his feet. Like a terrifying earthen cannonball, he crashed directly into the Brood-Nest.

There was no time to delay now, so he chose to tear it apart by hand!

"Ah! This! This! He really reached Foundation Establishment Perfection?!"

Tang Yiping was so frightened he lost his composure, almost being submerged again by the hundreds of evil monsters surging up from behind. Fortunately, the armored soldiers around him were not his own ragtag troops; they provided orderly support, preventing him from truly being swarmed to death.

After escaping the danger in a sorry state, he fell to the ground, appearing somewhat unsteady.

Raising his eyes to look at Du En again, the Brood-Nest had already been torn open by him to create a passage. The four hundred dharma artifacts scattered, and the guards released attacks together, immediately turning it into fragments filling the sky. Fu Yong and the others, who were bringing up the rear, also unleashed fire-element spells to scour the area as they passed.

The flames roared, burning away the Brood-Nest.

And Du En, at the very front, replaced his shattered earthen armor, landed on the ground, and leaped up again amidst the explosions.

Pierce through!

Smash to pieces!

Blast apart!

The "Minor Accomplishment" earthen armor could no longer keep up with his intensity, but it could be used to increase the attack area. Moreover, after shattering, it was launched out in the momentum, acting like a splash of small earthen cannonballs; one sweep cleared a whole area, making it very easy to pierce through the obstruction of the evil monsters.

Comparing a "Strong First-Class" combat power to a "First-Class" combat power, although there was a considerable gap, and those evil monsters were a loose sand with no battle tactics, it still should not have been a situation like this!

Therefore, this was no longer an ordinary "Strong First-Class," but one that had barely reached the threshold of a genius!

The Envoy felt it necessary to strike with a heavy blow!

Thus, Du En, who had just pierced through the evil monsters, encountered evil monsters once again.

Tang Yiping looked back blankly, only to see his direct superior had stopped, continuously casting spells, shifting piles of evil monsters over from a distance to slow down Du En and his group.

However, he had stopped!

This proved there was no more spare energy.

Therefore, as long as they pierced through fast enough, the problem would not be big!

Capturing this, Du En pressed on, adding full power. In the face of Tang Yiping's nearly numb expression, he pierced through as many as came.

The guards' response also gradually changed; they no longer sought to help kill the enemy, but changed their formation, surrounding themselves like a hedgehog, and began to chase with increased speed.

Because Du En's spiritual body was manifesting, he was becoming more courageous the more he fought, breaking through faster and faster. As his feet trod upon the earth, it was as if his strength was inexhaustible!

"Resonance! Earth resonance!"

"Don't be fooled."

The Envoy spoke up to interrupt Tang Yiping, who had stumbled over subconsciously in great panic. He continued to comment calmly, "It is merely the unique characteristic retained by the 'Firm Spirit Art' that connects to the 'Yellow Earth Art.' But you all are truly blind; he clearly practiced the 'Yellow Earth Art' to the extreme in the past, which could be called the peak of the second-class, yet you didn't notice it at all."

Connecting to a cultivation method practiced to perfection will certainly retain the lingering characteristics of the original.

In the Envoy's eyes, this was very hollow, but in Tang Yiping's eyes, Du En at this moment was like a god of war walking on the earth, his strength would not be exhausted, truly terrifying; his momentum had been completely suppressed.

Looking at this useless waste, the Envoy could not help but shake his head.

With a flicker in his eyes, he watched the group that had now moved far away with no more obstructions, gradually forming a different countermeasure.

But the most urgent thing now was to deal with these evil monsters.

Because on Du En's side, Meng Changqing's spellcasting finally had an effect, cutting off and concealing the aura of the group, which quietly vanished from sight.

And so, the evil monsters stopped one after another and turned around, looking at the Envoy—this "small version" of Du En.

Since the big one cannot be eaten, then let's eat you, the small one, first!

Eat, eat, eat!

Charge!

They surged forward, immediately clashing violently with this side.
