Chapter 455: Divine Spell Chains, Subduing the Empress!

Xing Lai Chao Shen World!

Boom…

Boom…

Boom…

Black flames erupted violently, sweeping across mountain ranges, plains, and rivers, setting everything ablaze in a frenzy.

A huge black-red mushroom cloud slowly rose, dyeing the sky with the color of death, leaving everyone breathless.

Continuous bursts of terrifying forbidden spell power erupted.

The entire Xing Lai Chao Shen World trembled violently.

Several upper-level Chao Shen Da Shi, in the terrifying forbidden spell starburst, had their sequences torn apart.

「Rumble…」

「This wave directly took out three upper-level Chao Shen Da Shi, tsk tsk… the harvest is quite good. 」

Inside the Four-Tusk Elephant Realm Ship.

……

But Ta Ke had no intention of entangling with Bei Fu Li, merely waving a hand lightly.

Taek, who had unfurled the Steam·Light Feather Blade and Storm Wing, moved at astonishing speed.

「Ta Ke! 」

Watching the vanished forbidden spell fade away, and hearing the rumbling of anomalous phenomena caused by the collapse of master sequences from afar.

Indestructible·Flame Heart (34000 fragments): Level 159.

「Moreover, I will surely crush your skull. 」

「Ta Ke, you damned bastard. 」

「Son of a bitch, you're back to sneak attack again. 」

They could only follow behind Ta Ke, eating dust, and occasionally get hit by the forbidden spells Ta Ke throws back.

Critical·Phase Walk (1832 fragments): Level 120.

……

【Chao Shen Divine Ability】

Not far away, the projection of the legendary powerhouse Bei Fu Li was about to descend.

The legendary wizard Bei Fu Li, face turning green with anger.

「Goodbye! 」

Chaos Steam·Grand Master Wizard: Level 170.

The sequences of three consecutive Chao Shen Da Shi collapsed.

Meanwhile, Ta Ke fled at high speed while laughing loudly, and also quickly conducting projection recovery.

They could only follow behind Ta Ke, using those locking-type means to attack Ta Ke.

Soon, one after another.

「Bei Fu Li, it's been a while since you came; I didn't expect your subordinates to be this lax. 」

Demon Ban·Exclusive Passage (7265 fragments): Level 120.

「Ta Ke·La Mo Er, you will pay the price for your stupidity! 」

【Chao Shen Sequence】

A silhouette over twenty meters tall, like a bubble, burst and vanished.

As the legendary wizard Bei Fu Li's silhouette descended from afar and roared, a forbidden spell erupted.

For a moment, wails of death and despairing screams swept across the entire Xing Lai Chao Shen World.

Storm Wing (2500 fragments): Level 120.

It could neither harm Ta Ke nor restrain Ta Ke.

…………

Even those quasi-legendary powerhouses with phase-shifting means struggled to trace Ta Ke's whereabouts.

「A Lu Mo Fu's war of destruction is about to begin. 」

「By then, I swear I will personally dismantle that damned stupid realm ship of yours. 」

「Looking for death! 」

But those locking-type means have relatively weak attack power.

Ta Ke carefully examined the results of their stat allocations.

Several quasi-legendary powerhouses flew out, intending to snipe Ta Ke's projection.

Origin Abyss: Level 170.

【Chao Shen Talent】

Precision·High-Dimension·Correction (SSS-exclusive): 11000%.

Steam·World·Origin Spirit State (SSS-exclusive): 11000%.

Chaos·Cosmic Stellar Aspect (SSS-exclusive): 26800%.

…………

After breaking through to become a higher-ranking Chao Shen Da Shi, Taku cultivated steadily for over half a year.

Taku poured all the previously accumulated source energy experience into the twelve-star-level divine spell 【Black Hole·Chain·Devourer】, raising it to level 179.

The eleven-star-level starfield divine spell Eternal·Vision also reached level 120 a few days ago.

Just now, Taku went to the Star Lai Chao Shen World and engaged in a fierce battle.

The main purpose was to test the effect of this eleven-star-level starfield divine spell 【Eternal·Vision】.

While reviewing his attribute panel, Taku also recalled the concrete practical effects of the battle just now.

「After Eternal·Vision blossoms, on top of normal Chao Shen vision, a wondrous visual ability is stacked, allowing one to see individual peculiar sequence worlds. 」

「Then, by following these sequence worlds and releasing forbidden spells, one can easily permeate a large part of the forbidden spell's might into the master state, the sequence, and even deeper life frameworks, thereby creating devastating damage! 」

「Those higher-ranking Chao Shen Da Shi are all very cunning; killing them is still difficult. 」

「But this time, after empowering with the starfield divine spell 【Eternal·Vision】, the destructive effect manifested instantly. 」

「That's……」

Taku carefully recalled the immense pressure he had previously endured.

「This 【Eternal·Vision】 consumes an astonishing amount of source energy, and the pressure one must bear is also tremendously great. 」

「Fortunately, I have been developing my primordial dark sea for many years, so source energy is naturally nothing to worry about. 」

「This star-phase projection specially used for projection also has 35 times the vitality tolerance of a higher-ranking Chao Shen Da Shi, making it fairly resistant. 」

「All aspects are pretty much ready, so it's time to start searching for the tracks of that damned worm. 」

Since Taku became a higher-ranking Chao Shen Da Shi.

Whether it's the Blood Sea Ancient Relic Shipwreck Grover·Wollaston.

Or the demigod Alu·Mofu, they are actively preparing for war.

Taku's side should also take action.

Sitting cross-legged in the depths of the chaos steam.

Taku slowly gathered his mind.

Hualala……

The power of the chaos world surged like a flowing river, continually gathering.

Over these years, Taku has continuously absorbed the primordial power of the chaos world.

Nowadays, his control over the world is vastly different from before.

The eruption of dragon power is also astonishingly fierce.

After his attention lingered momentarily on world power, Taku immersed his mind in the chaos star core.

In the depths of the Blood Sea Ancient Relic Shipwreck.

A brilliant chaos star core is resonating primordially with Taku.

In order to more effectively seek the legendary Shark Worm Empress Gefu.

Taku had long buried a chaos star core in the depths of the Blood Sea Ancient Relic Shipwreck.

Nowadays, the ignited chaos star core is conducting a high-intensity circulation of the world crystal wall barrier ecosystem deep within the bastion ecosystem together with the Blood Sea Ancient Relic Shipwreck.

Even the primordial essence of the Blood Sea Ancient Relic Shipwreck is resonating with Taku.

And this!

This is Taku's excellent means to seek the Shark Worm Empress Gefu.

Anchor onto the distant chaos star core.

「Go! 」

With a thought, Taku projected himself toward the chaos star core of the Blood Sea shipwreck.

The star-phase projection that landed on the chaos star core quickly established a strong ecological circulation with the chaos star core beneath his feet.

Taku's perception, borrowing the power of the chaos star core, began to explore the entire world.

After roughly half a day.

Taku, slowly gathering his mind, swiftly severed the ecological circulation between the star-phase projection and the chaos star core.

The star-phase projection showed a wilted, weak state.

Whether it's the pressure endured or the source energy consumed, using the chaos star core for scouting is astonishingly great.

「You actually didn't find it? 」

The recovering Taku was also somewhat surprised.

Originally thinking his move would be a sure win, this time he actually failed.

「As a legendary powerhouse, this method is indeed not to be underestimated. 」

「This time I merely conducted a broad probe into the depths of many layers. 」

「I did not deeply investigate the minute fluctuations that consumed enormous time. 」

「Since we couldn't find the legendary Shark Worm Empress Gefu on a broad scale, we need to conduct a meticulous, layer-by-layer deep investigation. 」

「Spending a bit more time to catch that damned worm will definitely be no problem. 」

Immediately, Ta Ke focused his mind completely and began the quest to find the steam shark insect empress's battlefield.

The depths of the underground stratum of the sunken ship ruins in the Blood Sea.

The deep layer of the Boundary Ship world, difficult to probe.

And even many hidden corners.

Ta Ke carried out meticulous, minute inspections.

Day after day.

Month after month, time flew by swiftly.

Ta Ke simply could not find any trace of the legendary shark insect empress Ge Fu.

Finally, upon entering the fifth month.

Ta Ke found some clues.

At this moment, Ta Ke was slowly seeping in, following the currents, into a region that does not undergo ecological exchange with the outside.

And this lies deep within the bulwark of the Boundary Ship of the Blood Sea ruins' sunken ship.

"Here… there is no current at all, just emptiness!"

"But the more this is so, the more Ta Ke finds this place strange."

"Impossible that there is nothing."

"Even if there is nothing else, there would be scattered natural currents."

"Yet here it is completely silent, not even natural currents."

"If the shark insect empress Ge Fu happened to be hiding here, one could only say her hiding is too perfect."

Here you can directly jump past, it's exactly in the internal area where the meridians surge and flow.

Don't rush, first restore your state.

Ta Ke withdrew silently and began preparations.

After a short while.

Having prepared, Ta Ke first bestowed upon himself the 【Eternal Vision】, then immediately formed the Starfall Divine Curse 【Black Hole Chain Devourer】 in all directions.

Hum!

Ta Ke directly jumped into the depths of that mysterious and peculiar spatial stratum.

Silent, gloomy, profound depths of the stratum world.

As soon as Ta Ke landed.

Over a hundred huge brown eyes, all at once, focused on Ta Ke.

These eyes ranged from twenty to thirty meters in diameter for the large ones, and two to three meters for the small ones.

And the entity possessing so many eyes turned out to be a terrifying monstrous beast as towering as a mountain range, its length reaching a staggering ten thousand meters.

Shark Insect Legendary Empress Ge Fu Nü Huang—she really was hiding here!

Pupils larger than Ta Ke's projection focused on Ta Ke.

At that moment.

Ta Ke felt that fear surfaced in the depths of those pupils.

So… you're afraid of me!

Ta Ke let out a helpless laugh.

Ta Ke!

A frenzied roar burst forth instantly.

At the same time, a divine ability impact from the sequence directly tore apart Ta Ke's projection.

Even Ta Ke's steam astral projection, possessing extremely strong defensive capabilities and a master-level tolerance.

But facing the legendary empress's hiss.

Ta Ke himself might not withstand it, let alone his projection.

With the shattering of Ta Ke's projection.

The Shark Insect Empress Ge Fu Nü Huang quickly gathered her mind.

I can't believe that guy found me; I have to leave quickly.

The Shark Insect Empress Ge Fu Nü Huang, whose hiding place had been exposed, immediately prepared to unleash a spacetime wormhole to leave.

However, when the Shark Insect Legendary Empress Ge Fu Nü Huang moved her body.

Rumble...

A peculiar chain sound rang out within her towering legendary sequence ecology.

When the Shark Insect Legendary Empress followed the direction of the sound to patrol.

Suddenly, her heart sank instantly.

At some point, a massive sphere over three kilometers in diameter began to permeate the firmament of this stratum.

And one of those chains had already pierced her master crystal wall armor.

It penetrated deep into the sequence, locking onto her sequence tree.

That pitch‑black giant sphere, which devours even light, was emanating a terrifying divine curse fluctuation that made the heart palpitate!

Divine curse!

Divine curse!

That is the legendary 【Starry Sky Divine Curse】.

It is also the 【Starry Sky Divine Curse】 that Ta Ke once used to snipe a legendary being.

Fear quickly welled up in the depths of the Shark Insect Legendary Empress's mind, then surged forth like a volcanic eruption.

No...

The hysterical, frantic wailing spread along the unfolding mental network, erupting to the extreme.

In an instant, the world roared!
