Chapter 372 The Shift Between Offense and Defense
Upon hearing the voice of the Xuan Snake Spirit, Lin Fei was also extremely surprised.
The true forms of the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle originally existed within this minor world. However, neither Lin Fei, nor the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle themselves ever imagined that their true forms would fall into the hands of Shangguan Shen and Siming Xingjun. Moreover, it seemed they were even being commanded by these two!
It's no wonder that the spirit of the Xuan Snake never dreamed of such a thing. You must know that as the attendant spirit beasts of the True Martial Emperor, their cultivation strength and status are above those of the Six Gods of Houtu.
The abilities of the aforementioned officials and the Star Lord of Fate are absolutely insufficient to control the true form of the Xuan Snake Spirit Turtle. Furthermore, as the attendant spirit beast of the True Martial Emperor, the Xuan Snake Spirit Turtle would never possibly attack the successor of the True Martial Emperor.
The only possibility is that someone intervened and erased the consciousness of the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle's true forms, so that Shangguan Shen and Siming Xingjun could control and command the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle's true forms.
This mysterious person is very likely the one who manipulated this cycle of reincarnation, merging the two cycles of reincarnation into one.
No wonder the Medicine Buddha was unwilling to let Lin Fei take the stone tablet away. Even after finally agreeing, he insisted that Lin Fei obtain the power of the origin of reincarnation in the Bodhi Square Inch Temple before leaving. Without his suppression, Shangguan Shen and Siming Xingjun would likely be able to break out of this world of reincarnation immediately, and then no one would be able to restrain them.
It's unbelievable that someone would be so audacious as to plot against the True Martial Emperor. It seems the perpetrator must be a powerful figure from ancient times; otherwise, they would never possess such methods and courage.
……
From the boiling magma, two enormous beasts suddenly emerged: a black serpent and a spirit tortoise, which were the true forms of the black serpent and the spirit tortoise.
It appears that their true forms have lost their own consciousness and only obey the commands of Shangguan Shen and Siming Xingjun.
Although the consciousness of the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle had been erased, their power remained incredibly strong, even strong enough to crush everyone present.
The Day Wanderer was startled and couldn't help but cry out, "Such terrifying energy! We are no match for these two!"
The Sun-Wandering God turned pale with fright, for the aura emanating from the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle's true forms had completely transcended the realm of ordinary beings. Only celestial beings could possess such a powerful aura!
Two experts at the Celestial Realm level were more than enough to defeat Lin Fei and his entire group. Although the Day Wanderer God had a divine position protecting him and could barely reach the Celestial Realm, this half-baked Celestial Realm expert probably couldn't even handle some powerful Dharma Aspect Level 3 experts, let alone the terrifyingly powerful Xuan Snake Spirit Turtle.
Shangguan Shen and Siming Xingjun leaped onto the heads of the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle, but did not immediately attack. Shangguan Shen said, "Mao Ri, considering our past friendship, I'll give you another chance. If you join forces with us, I'll let bygones be bygones. A wise person knows when to yield. With the strength of these two, you are far beyond their capabilities. There's no need to throw your life away!"
Even the Sun God looked at the Sun God with eager eyes, as if he wished the Sun God would agree immediately.
Mao Ri Xingjun's lips twitched a few times. He hadn't expected these two guys to have such powerful trump cards. With the strength of the Xuan Snake Spirit Turtle in its true form, it was definitely not something he could deal with now.
The Star Lord of the Rabbit Sun gave a bitter smile, took a deep breath, and said, "So be it. In ancient times, I should have been dead. I've lingered on for so many years, I've lived long enough!"
A resolute aura emanated from Mao Ri Xing Jun: "It's just death, how could I, Mao Ri Xing Jun, be someone who clings to life and fears death?"
"Stubborn to the end!" Shangguan Shen sneered, a sharp killing intent flashing in his eyes: "Since that's the case, don't blame me for not remembering our past friendship!"
After saying that, Shangguan Shen and Mao Ri Xingjun activated the true form of the Xuan Snake Spirit Turtle, intending to launch an attack on the three of them.
The Sun God was ready to die and was about to fight to the death, while the Sun God was hesitant and indecisive. Just then, Lin Fei suddenly stepped forward and blocked their way.
"You all step back and let me go and deal with them!" Lin Fei said calmly.
"My lord!" said the Star Lord of the Rabbit Sun in a hurry, "Let me go up first!"
It wasn't that he looked down on Lin Fei, but the true strength of the Xuan Snake Spirit Turtle was simply too astonishing. No matter which of the three of them went up, they probably wouldn't stand a chance.
The Star Lord of the Rabbit Sun was actually prepared to sacrifice himself to buy time for Lin Fei. Even if Lin Fei wanted to escape, he could buy him some time.
"No need." Lin Fei shook his head and said to Mao Ri Xingjun, "I am confident that they can do nothing to me!"
The Sun God also lent a hand to the Rabbit Sun Star Lord, giving him a wink and saying, "Since you're confident, let you go. Don't cause him any trouble!"
Knowing that the Day Wanderer was still playing both sides, the Rabbit Star Lord snorted coldly and ignored him. Instead, he said to Lin Fei, "Then please be careful, my lord. I will be there to protect you!"
Lin Fei nodded and leaped forward. Seeing his decisive stance, even Shangguan Shen and Siming Xingjun thought that Lin Fei had some trump card that could deal with the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle's true forms, and they couldn't help but be a little more cautious.
Lin Fei's body transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the true forms of the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle. Without any apparent technique, he directly plunged into the Xuan Snake's massive maw and was swallowed whole by its body.
"This..." Everyone present was stunned by Lin Fei's actions—what else could this be but suicide?
It should be noted that the internal organs of the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle are extremely hard, no less so than their outer shells. Breaking into them from the inside would be no less difficult than breaking into them from the outside.
More importantly, these ancient beasts often devoured many powerful members of their own kind or humans. Therefore, a special barrier exists within their bodies that can weaken the cultivation of the creatures they swallow.
If Lin Fei wanted to break through the Xuan Snake and the Spirit Turtle's true forms from the inside, it would be nothing short of a pipe dream. In the eyes of others, Lin Fei's actions at this moment were no different from suicide.
Lin Fei's actions stunned Shangguan Shen and Siming Xingjun for a moment. Then, Shangguan Shen burst into laughter, almost doubled over, and pointed at Mao Ri Xingjun, saying, "Mao Ri, is this the person you serve? Such an idiot, and he's worthy of your loyalty, Mao Ri Xingjun? It's utterly laughable!"
