Chan Zu looked up at Charlie, a pleading gaze in its eyes.
You said you wanted to make me a sacred beast, so help me now!
Charlie rushed down, but was immediately stopped by Xun Ying.
Xun Ying's face showed a playful expression. He didn't know what had happened, but it was enough that it wasn't good for Charlie.
Just then, a powerful energy erupted from Chan Zu, forming a massive shield that enveloped a radius of ten kilometers.
This was Chan Zu's passive self-defense during reproduction. It was extremely weak during pregnancy, and this shield could keep out enemies weaker than itself to protect it through this vulnerable period.
The Archangel had broken through this shield before, nailing it to a cross. There were no experts like that Archangel in the Federation, so no one could penetrate this shield.
Chan Zu's innate talent had become an obstacle to its plea for help, forcing it to face the diffusing angel within its body alone.
Charlie's face turned ashen. He gripped one end of the cross, and then a sword-like white light grew from the other end. Charlie then swung this cross-sword at the shield.
A giant beam of light suddenly struck the shield. The energy collision caused the surroundings to vibrate incessantly. If not for the series of battles that had already destroyed everything nearby, the residual impact of these collisions might have destroyed something else.
Charlie slashed several times, expending a huge amount of energy, but still could not penetrate the shield.
As long as an individual's strength was less than Chan Zu's, no one could penetrate the shield before Chan Zu gave birth to its offspring.
Xun Ying idly drew circles with the sword in his hand. Seeing Charlie's expression, he found it quite amusing.
Feng Gui Shen's clone climbed onto Xun Ying's shoulder and looked at Chan Zu within the massive light barrier. Instead of bickering with Xun Ying, it looked grave.
This thing seems stronger than me!
Then Xun Ying skewered Feng Gui Shen onto his sword and started spinning them both.
The clone of Feng Gui Shen was spun until it was dizzy, as if to say, "I didn't bother you this time, why are you torturing me again?"
Xun Ying winked at Feng Gui Shen.
"Just because you're not bothering me, doesn't mean I can't mess with you?"
Wen Wen, who was watching from afar, smiled when he saw the shield appear. Although there were some minor setbacks, the situation was ultimately developing in his favor.
He was observing the battle through a Mirror Eye, which could observe things from any reflective surface. Due to the seven long spikes, the sea surface here had become as smooth as a mirror, allowing him to observe the situation from a distance at any time.
Wen Wen tidied his clothes, put on the robe of the Disaster Prison Warden, and faintly exuded a calamity-level aura. Then, he manipulated the white mist to disguise himself as a tall and powerful servant.
He then took a detour, ran to the other side of the shield ten kilometers away, placed the Disaster Gauntlet on his right hand, and pressed it against the shield.
The shield had a very high energy density, and even Charlie could not breach it. However, the Disaster Gauntlet loved high-energy-density calamity energy the most.
Thus, a massive amount of calamity energy poured into the Disaster Gauntlet, making it feel exhilarated.
The Disaster Gauntlet occasionally 'leaked' some calamity energy, which was used to strengthen Wen Wen, making his body feel full.
Wen Wen advanced a short distance, opening up a small path into the shield.
On the other side, Charlie and Xun Ying sensed Wen Wen trying to sneak into the shield and immediately flew over, wanting to follow that passage in as well.
But how could Wen Wen let them follow him in? That would be bringing trouble upon himself. So Wen Wen aimed his left hand at the path he had just opened.
He released the absorbed energy back!
The Disaster Gauntlet also knew that as long as it could enter the core area, the calamity energy it consumed would be much better than outside. Therefore, it cooperated with Wen Wen and spat out the energy it had consumed.
The path was sealed again, and Charlie and Xun Ying could only glare from the outside. Xun Ying didn't care, but Charlie was so depressed he felt like spitting blood.
Everything went smoothly until Chan Zu began to transform, but suddenly everything took a sharp turn for the worse.
What went wrong?
Charlie had also heard of this newly appeared calamity-level expert. It was said that he was very close to the Hunter Association, and his codename, Black Cross, was full of blasphemous meaning. Would it be good to let this guy enter the shield?
Xun Ying looked at Wen Wen with a meaningful gaze. Even he couldn't break this shield, yet "Black Cross" could directly enter it. It seemed that the Association should promote this Black Cross to a higher rank.
Wen Wen, like a termite, ate and defecated, walking for an entire afternoon and covering a distance of two kilometers before finally breaching the thick shield.
"Hoo, this place is really not meant for people. I can only enter this way with the Disaster Gauntlet."
Wen Wen wiped his sweat. If it were another calamity-level expert, even if they could create a hundred-meter opening with a single blow, the energy shield's density would quickly seal it, preventing them from entering.
Upon entering, Wen Wen cautiously looked around. Finding no danger, he flew towards the center.
At this moment, a white cicada worm, over a hundred meters long with ten giant wings on its back, was lying on the ground, trembling slightly.
During the gestation period, Chan Zu was extremely weak. The gestation had not been interrupted at the beginning, and now it was powerless to stop it.
Wen Wen thought carefully. In the end, he did not dare to rush to the front of Chan Zu. Although Chan Zu looked extremely weak, it might still retain enough power to kill Wen Wen instantly.
Therefore, Wen Wen chose to enter Chan Zu's body from behind. The hole that Maya Mi had opened with the Mist Demon Spear had not yet healed, so Wen Wen could walk directly into Chan Zu's body from here.
A hundred-meter-long demonic spear… the wound it pierced must have a diameter of two to three meters. How painful must that be…
Wen Wen shook his head and walked into the bloody wound with his administrator's badge.
...
Inside Chan Zu's abdomen, Maya Mi, who was being gestured again, was also not feeling well. Although its strength was still there, the fragile body of the newborn could not control such powerful strength, so it was also very fragile at this stage.
However, once it developed further, it would be able to rest easy, and the two pieces of brain that had disappeared before could grow back.
But there was still a serious problem.
The original Chan Zu used blue energy, and Maya Mi absorbed that power as easily as drinking tap water.
But now Chan Zu had become an angel-like creature of light, and all the power within had been converted into light energy that suppressed it.
It was as if the original tap water had now turned into sewage water.
