Chapter 439: Mutant Force Tide

How could this be?

Yan Buji carefully sensed, rolling terrifying waves surged, and the surrounding air temperature rose considerably.

Gui Xie frowned, suddenly shocked: "Not good!"

Seeing Gui Xie take off running, Yan Buji reacted and followed.

"Senior, what exactly is going on?"

"You brat!" Gui Xie pointed at Yan Buji, eyes wide: "Hurry up and run, or we'll die if we wait any longer!"

Huh?

Yan Buji didn't know why, but suddenly felt his left eye twitch.

Mutant Force?!

At the same time, the three forces on the rooftop regrouped and looked ahead: "What is that?"

Streams of seven-colored rosy vapor rode the heat wave, and everyone suddenly felt something was wrong.

Next, a huge number of strangely shaped Abnormal Beasts swarmed out of the gate, launching a frenzied attack on the people around.

"They're Abnormal Beasts!"

"Hurry, this is an Abnormal Region!"

Wang Tiangsheng gritted his teeth, glanced at Song Xing and the others, and thrust a dazzling-light water column. See, the water column turned into four chains in the cramped space, tightly binding Song Xing and company!

"Damn freak!" Song Xing glared, eyes wide, staring angrily at Wang Tiangsheng.

"Heh, just stay here and help me buy some time!"

Nobody expected that what was sealed inside the Penglai Pavilion's Demon-Suppressing Tower was not the Yao Clan Emperor, but an entrance to an Abnormal Region.

Now the seal of the Abnormal Region has been broken, causing a large amount of Mutant Force Aura and Abnormal Beasts to break through barriers and frenziedly attack every living thing in sight.

It no longer matters what race or status one has; anyone trapped by these troublesome Abnormal Beasts will soon see the powerful Abnormal Beasts inside the Abnormal Region break free and walk out, at which point none of them will be able to escape.

"Cousin!"

Song Ziyue gritted her teeth, burst forth with magical power, golden light flashing, shattering the chains that bound them!

But at this moment they were already surrounded by a huge number of Abnormal Beasts, and with the corrosion of Mutant Force, they were quickly overwhelmed.

Gui Xie arrived at the first level of the Demon-Suppressing Tower, looked around, and his face drastically changed: "Those three old fogeys actually locked the door? They're trying to bury me, the old ancestor, for good!"

Yan Buji covered his left eye; the turmoil of Mutant Force forced him to divert his energy to suppress it with magic, then he turned to Gui Xie: "Senior, can you open it?"

"You brat, stop standing there spouting cool talk—come help!"

"I don't know any seal-breaking techniques..."

"Nonsense, if you want to live, listen to the old ancestor!"

Gui Xie gritted his teeth; a burst of fluorescence erupted from his body, then he raised his hand and sent several mysterious runes into the gate.

Only see, the seals on the gate kept flowing, one link after another.

"Kid, use your strongest attack at the moment the third and sixth rings intersect to strike the center! Remember, we only have one chance!" Gui Xie gritted his teeth, continuously releasing magic power to control the flow of the gate's seals.

Yan Buji took a deep breath, quickly gathering his True Essence!

"Fast!"

Yan Buji rushed over, his whole body's True Essence converging into a point; the tremendous power made even Gui Xie's face change color.

Next!

Boom!

Accompanied by the True Essence torrent crashing into the seal's center, the gate shattered with a bang!

Gui Xie dashed out without a word, and Yan Buji hurriedly followed.

But the others weren't so lucky, as Gui Xie and Yan Buji rushed out of the Demon-Suppressing Tower, seemingly beating the activation of the Penglai Pavilion's three ancestors' killing formation before it could trigger; meanwhile, the shattered gate healed again, and the enemies on each level reappeared.

Those who remained inside the Demon-Suppressing Tower, even if they frantically fled downward, could not avoid being blocked by the enemies on each level; the result was also being overtaken by the Mutant Force Tide, with huge numbers of Abnormal Beasts filling the tower.

Yan Buji turned his head with lingering fear and saw that the Mutant Force Aura emanating from within the Demon-Suppressing Tower had already covered the entire Penglai Pavilion; if he were even slightly slower, he would likely be affected by the Mutant Force Aura.

Moreover, those human-shaped seals, seemingly due to the Mutant Force Aura, have undergone some kind of inconceivable change.

And those three grotesque meat pillars standing like pillars outside the mountain gate, along with the vast number of demonic beasts nearby, made Yan Buji feel a chill in his heart.

"Kid, we've really walked into the Dao this time!" Gui Xie clenched his teeth and gave a strained laugh.

"The Penglai Pavilion sealed an entrance to an Abnormal Region?" Yan Buji narrowed his eyes, asking while running.

"And there's also the Yao clan... it seems the Yao Clan Emperor that was suppressed is the true essence of the seal; Penglai Pavilion drained the Yao Clan Emperor's power, yet still couldn't suppress the Mutant Force outbreak—could that Abnormal Region be...?" Gui Xie muttered to himself, as if realizing something and becoming terrified.

"Mad, how could we encounter something like this?!"

"Senior, what exactly happened? Give me a word." Yan Buji couldn't help but ask.

Gui Xie's expression changed as he looked ahead: "Originally, the Penglai Pavilion sealed a Yao Clan Emperor, and the Three Penglai Masters died in battle. I thought they would be reborn with the aid of the seals, but I never expected they had already been corrupted by Mutant Force, or rather... they actively contacted Mutant Force, draining the Yao Clan Emperor's origin to suppress the Abnormal Region's entrance while transforming themselves into Abnormal Beasts!"

Huh?

Yan Buji wore a strange expression, but seeing so many puppets transformed from human-shaped seals on the nearby battlefield, he pondered: "Could they be using the human-seal method to absorb power, turn them into puppets, and finally rely on Mutant Force to live another life? Although such an operation is risky, it seems they have actually succeeded."

Gui Xie looked at Yan Buji: "What do you think the Abnormal Region is?"

"Isn't it the Abnormal Beasts' main base?"

"Wrong, the Abnormal Region is a terrifying hell that can devour all power and turn it into Mutant Force; truly speaking, it's far more horrifying than a desperate land. The fact that the Three Penglai Masters contacted Mutant Force and still dared to use it for resurrection proves they have already been corrupted by Mutant Force and will soon become complete Abnormal Beasts—do you expect them to distinguish friend from foe?"

Yan Buji suddenly understood: "Oh, I see."

Good thing, the Heaven Gate Law can be used; after leaving that Demon-Suppressing Tower, we can run.

Gui Xie looked around: "Moreover, when the Mutant Force Tide appears, this secret realm will also become part of the Abnormal Region; if we don't leave quickly, we'll be surrounded by endless Abnormal Beasts until we ourselves mutate and become one of them!"

Yan Buji watched Gui Xie so wary of Mutant Force, not knowing just how terrifying the Abnormal Region truly is.

But since cultivators' magic can resist Mutant Force, why does Gui Xie still need to rush away so urgently?

Unless there is some tremendous powerful existence inside the Abnormal Region that the Three Penglai Masters' scheme has drawn out.

Thinking this through, Yan Buji gave up the idea of going to Penglai Pavilion to loot treasures; logically, in such a chaotic situation, he ought to give it a shot with the Heaven Gate Law, but he decided against it.

He hurriedly fled.

Thinking, Yan Buji used his magic power to summon the Heaven Gate.

Huh?!

Gui Xie's pupils constricted: "Wait!"

"Senior, is there anything else?"

Gui Xie's expression changed, then he laughed: "You have the Heaven Gate Law?!"
