Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1105 - 1106: Breakthrough

"Such a hassle!"

Delong Tower waved his longsword in irritation. Along the way forward, they relied almost entirely on the cooperation between Veronia and Agunas to clear out those enemies. After all, among the spirit beasts present, only Veronia had the ultimate move of extending tendrils in the void. Gitalien’s spatial rifts and other ultimate moves were not unusable, but they were more challenging to control compared to Veronia’s tendrils.

And although Delong Tower’s ultimate moves, like the flood-like ones, wouldn’t cause too much trouble in this kind of place, this was an underground sewer, the place where Maomu City’s wastewater was concentrated. Use flood-like ultimate moves directly? He probably wouldn’t enjoy the feeling of a sewage bath. Even if he could maintain a barrier, Feng Yuan would never agree to it, as water would keep dripping from the top after the flood passed.

Xiao Ji, on the other hand, felt indifferent. After all, its ultimate moves were almost impossible to use here unless it wanted to collapse the sewer.

"Do you feel it?"

Feng Yuan suddenly stopped and closed his eyes, turning towards Gitalien, who was boredly surveying their surroundings. Gitalien wasn’t as irritable as Delong Tower, but pacing aimlessly in such a broken place, it too felt a bit bored. At Feng Yuan’s question, Gitalien paused and asked,

"Feel what?"

"Wait! Spatial fluctuation?!"

"It seems that is indeed the case. That thing must be in another space. Thanks a lot this time, Lorna~"

Nodding, Feng Yuan suddenly turned to thank Lorna. In fact, if it weren’t for Lorna’s help, they might have had to wander the sewers even longer. After all, the place was as complex as a labyrinth, not to mention that the black branches were spread throughout the entire channel, making it difficult to find where they originated.

Lorna used her special ability to continuously find the direction to these black branches, saving them from going down many wrong paths.

"I’m getting a bit hungry, hopefully the environment in the other space will be better..."

Looking at the filthy sewer, Feng Yuan said with a troubled expression. Although they could block the stench, he didn’t feel like eating anything in such a place was a good choice, especially since he could hardly accept eating there mentally, unless it was an absolute necessity.

"It’s hard to say. This damn thing chose to appear in such a place, maybe because the environments are similar."

Delong Tower wasn’t too optimistic. It was somewhat baffled by the reason these things appeared in the sewer. After all, this didn’t seem like a part of some underground base. Why choose such a place? Isn’t the surface better? To say that the channel can only open here?

That’s hardly possible. The sewers were filled with various setups to prevent spatial transfers. Not to mention fending off enemies, when beastmasters first acquire space-series spirit beasts and try spatial transfer ultimate moves, getting coordinates wrong is a common occurrence. If they accidentally end up in the sewer, it would be troublesome, as finding someone in such a place is not easy.

"It probably won’t be... If it really is... I might have to purify the environment there first."

Feng Yuan paused and said somewhat sheepishly. What Delong Tower said seemed very likely, but that meant his plan to eat something on the other side might go down the drain. Although he was hungry, not eating for a day or two wasn’t an issue for him; it was just a habit.

"Like getting Xiao Ji to start a fire?"

Gitalien glanced at Xiao Ji, who was quietly following behind Feng Yuan. Hearing Gitalien name it, Xiao Ji fluttered its tail feathers and gave Gitalien a somewhat puzzled look. Delong Tower gently nudged Gitalien and said,

"Let me deal with trash cleanup, why bother it? And can its ultimate move really clear out all that rubbish?"

Hearing Delong Tower’s words, Xiao Ji flared its wings angrily at him. Feng Yuan couldn’t help but smile and said,

"Are you planning to use the Sea of Corrosion? But what if the other side is just a pool of sewage, what are you going to do then? That Ultimate Move probably won’t be very effective in such an environment, right?"

The Sea of Corrosion is Delong Tower’s special Ultimate Move, summoning seawater with extremely terrifying corrosive properties. However, under normal circumstances, it would not use this move since it indiscriminately damages everyone, friend or foe alike. Anyone engulfed by the Sea of Corrosion will definitely be corroded, of course, those with Legendary Level strength can use their own power to resist the effects of the Sea of Corrosion, but this can lead to a competition of sustained power output capabilities, and Divine Beasts are top-notch in this aspect, unparalleled by other Spirit Beasts.

"Then I’ll leave it to you guys."

Delong Tower said without hesitation, its Ultimate Moves are more offensively and support-oriented, with little utility in wiping out objects in a designated area.

"I didn’t expect the final gatekeeper to be such a nuisance."

Feng Yuan said somewhat helplessly as he cut through the black crystal branches trying to ambush him, they were close to the source of the branches, where the undisguised Spatial Fluctuations had already informed all Divine Beasts who could sense them of a likely Space Gate. Yet those black branches crazily grew from it, firmly blocking the entrance, making it hard for even Golden Tome Page empowered by Time Divestiture to break through.

The black crystal branches were covered with a strange aura that diminished the effect of Time Divestiture on them, preventing their immediate destruction. The continuously emerging black crystal branches would push out the gold vines that managed to squeeze in.

"Maybe it’s better to switch to a more direct Ultimate Move that annihilates the area."

Gitalien was charging a black sphere of energy in his hands, and Feng Yuan looked at Gitalien and said,

"Can you assure us safe passage through your Spatial Annihilation Domain, or do you think those things won’t immediately push through once your Spatial Annihilation Domain dissipates?"

"What do you propose then?"

Gitalien looked back at Feng Yuan with dissatisfaction and said. Feng Yuan gave a slight smile and turned to Agunas,

"Trouble you to strengthen Time Stop with the Golden Book and bring time to a halt in this area."

Agunas nodded and took out a Golden Tome Page,

"You guys better be quick, I don’t know how long I can maintain this."

The ordinary Time Stop had already been tested and could not last long before being disrupted by abnormal rules. Even Agunas himself did not know how long a Time Stop enhanced by a Golden Tome Page could last, but he presumed it would not be very long.

As for why he didn’t use it earlier? To resist those abnormal rules with a Golden Tome Page together with Time Stop was extremely energy-draining. Since they had previous methods to handle the obstructing black branches, why would they need to do so? It was only because they had no good solutions in the moment.

As Agunas took action, everything around came to a standstill. Seizing this opportunity, Feng Yuan and the others wielded their weapons to carve out a path in the dense branches, pressing forward surrounded by those crystallized black vines, and due to uncertainty of when the Time Stop maintained by Agunas would fail, they needed to hasten their pace.

Luckily, they managed to reach the Space Gate before the Time Stop ended. Unlike normal space doors, the one before them was composed of square glowing blocks, similar to the phenomenon observed when the black branches passed through, but distinctively, these glowing blocks all reflected the same world. They resembled mirrors pieced together, displaying images of the world on the other side.

"Data Domain? This isn’t unexpected, but if we had known it was the Data Domain earlier, maybe we could have gone straight through..."

Feng Yuan said with a touch of frustration. At that moment, the Time Stop could no longer be sustained. Veronia grabbed Agunas and took them into the Data Domain, following Feng Yuan.

Black branches instantly filled the pathway opened by Feng Yuan and the others and continued to spread around. However, perhaps they hadn’t realized that the person and the Spirit Beasts that had been attacking them had already entered the space behind them.
