Chapter 381: Chapter 382 Dongfeng Shuo Still Concealing His Strength

Seeing the Void Creature daringly setting up a defensive stance, the group intensified their attacks, throwing out all sorts of assaults as if they did not consume any Spiritual Power at all. The Void Creature was instantly engulfed in a storm of attacks, like a small boat tossed about on a raging sea, teetering on the edge of capsizing.

“Attack quickly, don’t let it recover,” the low-key man shouted loudly. Without his prompt, everyone already knew how rare the opportunity was to hit a moving target, wishing they had four hands each to attack the Void Creature.

Yet the Void Creature remained remarkably resilient. Despite being submerged in everyone’s frenzied attacks, it was still standing firm. The barrage of hits fell on it like raindrops, and even for the creature’s sturdy body, the feeling of being overwhelmed was palpable.

Moreover, everyone’s attacks were distinctive. Mu Can typically combined Ice and Fire Attributes to release his most powerful attacks, while the low-key man used the Earth Spiritual Power within his body to create earth spikes in the undefended spots in front and behind the Void Creature, viciously piercing it. Donghuang constantly created Energy Balls made of Light Spiritual Power, shaping them like small throwing knives that swarmed the Void Creature. The most troublesome attack for the Void Creature, however, came from Dongfeng Shuo.

Dongfeng Shuo actually crafted a circle of transparent mirrors around the Void Creature. Though they were called mirrors, their surfaces rippled with waves, like the slightly undulating surface of water. Dongfeng Shuo’s attacks materialized within these mirrors, with arms wielding various strange weapons sporadically emerging and swinging down hard at the defense-focused Void Creature, almost knocking it to the ground with the sheer force.

At this time, the brawny man wasn’t idle either. He sneakily approached the Void Creature and delivered a fierce axe strike. However, the brawny man was cunning and didn’t linger in battle. After landing a hit, he didn’t check to see the extent of damage inflicted on the Void Creature; instead, he immediately retreated, carrying his shield and covertly sizing up the beast.

Clearly, the earlier outburst of the Void Creature had startled him. Although he had great confidence in his defensive power, facing an enemy of the Void Level, this confidence could often lead to grave danger.

Even after the battle had progressed to this point, Mu Can and the others were still without assurance of victory. Their opponent wasn’t just any creature, but a genuine Void Level being. Fighting an enemy of the Void Level was something they wouldn’t have dared even contemplate before.

The strongest asset of the Void Level was its ability to break through the fabric of space, coupled with the ability to traverse the Void. These two capabilities alone gave the Void Level its most prideful assets: formidable offensive power and mobility.

However, the creature they were facing, although still of the Void Level, had its strength severely suppressed. Its most powerful abilities were sealed; it couldn’t traverse the Void or break it, which directly limited the Void Creature’s ability to utilize its full potential. Moreover, Void Creatures weren’t particularly known for their Spiritual Wisdom; they fought merely on instinct and brutality.

It could be said that fortune, geographical advantage, and harmony of the people were all on the side of Mu Can and his allies, which led to the situation where they surrounded and attacked the Void Creature.

“Wait, something’s not quite right,” Dongfeng Shuo said, noting the Void Creature that had no intention to counterattack.

All creatures have instincts, and when faced with severe harm, there are only two possible reactions: one is to unleash strength beyond the norm upon feeling pain, and the other is to turn and run.

Under neither scenario should the creature’s current behavior occur.

“Stop,” the low-key man said, greatly respecting Dongfeng Shuo’s words. Not just considering Dongfeng Shuo’s terrifying insight or his bizarre attacks, Dongfeng Shuo was someone worthy of attention.

Mu Can looked at Dongfeng Shuo with confusion, as the Ice Sword forming in his hand slowly melted, turning back into Spiritual Power and returning to his body. He knew Dongfeng Shuo wasn’t someone to speak without cause. If he said this, it meant there was definitely something strange with the Void Creature.

“What’s the fuss? Just finish it off while we have the chance,” Donghuang sneered coldly. In his view, if they didn’t take advantage of such an opportune moment to cripple the Void Creature, then controlling the situation later would be difficult. Despite feeling dissatisfied inside, Donghuang still ceased his attack.

Dongfeng Shuo puzzledly stared at the Void Giant Beast, which was still assuming a defensive posture even after everyone had ceased attacking, filled with doubts.

“No, it’s not supposed to be like this,” Dongfeng Shuo expressed his perplexity. In his eyes, the reaction of the Void Creature was simply illogical.

Mu Can became even more suspicious as he observed Dongfeng Shuo’s eyes. From Dongfeng Shuo’s words, he discerned a lot. This Dongfeng Shuo must have encountered such Void Creatures somewhere before and had some understanding of them; otherwise, such words would not come so spontaneously.

“This Dongfeng Shuo is not simple; watch out for him, kid,” Wang Cai spoke up. Although he had heard Mu Can mention this person before, he had never met him. Upon their first encounter, he sensed a kind of fog enshrouding Dongfeng Shuo, and with Wang Cai’s power, very few in the Mortal World could evoke such an inscrutable feeling.

“What do you mean?” Mu Can inquired. He was aware that Dongfeng Shuo was no simple character, but it was just a suspicion. However, Wang Cai’s words just now showed a certainty, indicating that Wang Cai had noticed something he had not. Mu Can trusted Wang Cai’s judgment.

“This man is shrouded in a mist I can’t see through. Be careful. He’s definitely concealing his true strength, and such people always have some purpose.”

Was Dongfeng Shuo still hiding his strength? The strength Dongfeng Shuo had previously revealed was at the Martial Arts Sect level, but now the strength he showed was at the Martial Saint Level. Was he still concealing something even then?

“I know,” Dongfeng Shuo shouted, as if he had finally figured out the Void Creature’s behavior.

“Don’t touch it for now. Otherwise, soon it’s going to be a lot trickier than now,” Dongfeng Shuo calmly said.
