Chapter 1279: The Twins Breakthrough And Continued Slaughter
Having made sure that there were no ‘Dangerous" Chasm Beasts here, Lin Mu decided to let the Twin snakes free.
"Go on, you two. I"ll be right behind you." Lin Mu permitted.
~hiss~
The twins zoomed ahead in the very next instant and began their routine of piercing through the Chasm Beasts nonstop. The Chasm Beasts at this point were weak, being equivalent to around Qi refining to core condensation realm beasts so Lin Mu had no worries.
"I gotta keep up with them though." Lin Mu sprinted through the empty corridor created by the twin snakes.
The Chasm Beasts were startled by the sudden intrusion of Lin Mu and the Twin snakes.
~ROAR~
~GUAGAUAGUAGAUG~
A cacophony of cries and roars were heard as the Chasm Beasts nearby all pounced on the twins and Lin Mu. Unfortunately for them, they were far too weak to do anything to them.
The twin snakes were like a sharp scythe cleaving through dried crops during a harvest. Hundreds of Chasm beasts were killed every second and soon an empty circle of about two hundred meters wide was created.
At the center of this circle stood Lin Mu who beckoned for the twins to return.
~WHOOSH~
The two snakes wrapped around Lin Mu"s arms and looked at their handiwork. While more Chasm Beasts were rushing towards them, it would still take them a minute to do that. And that was more than enough time for what they wanted to do.
"Go on, eat. I"ll hold them back if they get close." Lin Mu said.
~hiss~
Xiao Yin sucked in all the dark dusty fog and cleared out the entire area in less than twenty seconds. In this time, the Chasm beasts had covered around half the distance towards where they stood.
But there was still enough time for Xiao Yin to convert a part of the energy into pure Yang spirit Qi and feed it to her brother.
~ZOOM~
By the time the twins were done eating, there was still some time left, time that the twins" didn"t want to wait and rushed back into the fray.
This process of harvesting and consuming continued five more times, before the numbers of the Chasm beasts had thinned a little.
"Hmm… around seven hundred meters wide." Lin Mu estimated the distance from the closest Chasm Beast.
The twins returned to Lin Mu"s arms, but this time they were undergoing a change.
"Oh? Ready for a breakthrough?" Lin Mu sensed the rise in their energy and aura.
Dense spirit Qi fluctuations came from their bodies and resonated with the spirit Qi within the air.
If anyone looked at this scene they might not believe their eyes. What was basically an army of Chasm Beasts tried to drown out Lin Mu and the snakes, while they causally had a breakthrough without a care for the danger.
Lin Mu sensed their Dantians and saw two Dao Sh.e.l.l outlines forming.
"That was fast!" Lin Mu felt like he had merely blinked and there was already an outline floating above their nascent souls.
The outline was rather large too, spanning nearly eight meters.
One must know in the Sh.e.l.l Initiation stage, an outline was not fixed and was usually small. It might not even be a foot wide for a lot of cultivators. And yet, the twin snakes both had Dao Sh.e.l.l outlines at the eight meter point.
A majority of the Dao Sh.e.l.l realm experts couldn"t even expand their Dao Sh.e.l.ls to four meters not to mention eight meters. But here there were two infant snakes defying the common understanding.
Lin Mu almost felt a little jealous of their speed of breakthrough.
"Their bloodline is certainly not normal if they can progress this fast." Lin Mu thought to himself.
~GUAUAUAUAUAUUA~
The Chasm Beasts Terre greatly agitated now, and the stronger one"s among them were approaching. The number of the Chasm beasts that were at the Nascent soul realm and below were already thinned out to the low hundreds, leaving only the stronger kin to attack them now.
"Let"s get started then." Lin Mu had to join in the fight at this time.
~ZOOM~
The twins sped out again, beginning their reaping process, albeit a little slower this time. But even that slow speed was still at one Chasm beast every couple of seconds. It was only the Chasm Beasts at the Dao Sh.e.l.l realm that made them slow down.
As for those equivalent to the Dao Treading realm?
~GUAGAUGAUGAUGA~
The Twins were attacked by one such Chasm Beast that was about eight meters tall. It was many times larger than them in size, but to the twins, it was the same as any other prey. Just that it was a little bigger and would feed them longer.
The chasm beast swung its claws at the twins but was unable to get close to them. It couldn"t even be in a one-meter range since the twins were just too fast for it to react to.
~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~
The twins made circles around the Dao Treading realm chasm Beast, making it disoriented before shrinking their spinning radius. It reached the body of the Chasm beast, and they basically ground the Beast into a mangled mess.
~THUD~
The Dead body of the eight meter tall Chasm Beast fell to the ground, and the twins went on to the next target.
If it weren"t for the fact that the Chasm Beasts didn"t feel the usual kind of fear, they might have already run away.
~SHING~
~SLICK~
~THUD~
Lin Mu who was a short distance from the twin snakes watched their performance while killing another eight meter tall Chasm beast on his own. All it took was a single flick of a sword and the neck of the Chasm beast slid off easily.
"The efficiency is way better than before…" Lin Mu realized.
His control over Sword Intent had increased due to his breakthrough. And now, he could kill Dao Treading realm creatures the same way as a Nascent soul realm creature.
