"Wood element, bind!"
Chen Mu was still breathing fire when suddenly vines quickly stretched out from under his feet and wrapped around his two feet.
"Kill!"
Upon seeing this, everyone immediately used their unique abilities to launch a combined attack on him.
" Mount Tai Crushes the Crown!"
A huge meteorite fell from the sky and crashed into Chen Mu.
" Five Thunders Strike the Crown!"
Several dark clouds gathered in the sky, unleashing terrifying thunder.
" Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart!"
Countless golden arrows pierced towards Chen Mu from all directions.
Since the number of Battle Talisman Master has increased, each Battle Talisman Master has developed different talisman techniques and combat methods based on their own characteristics, some of which even amazed Chen Mu.
Whoosh...! Crackling and popping!
Several attacks rushed towards Chen Mu, but he simply raised his hand, and all the attacks that approached him were immediately disintegrated and annihilated.
"Haha! Good teamwork, but unfortunately the attack power is too low!"
Chen Mu smiled calmly, his hands forming hand seals, and the Dharma Aspect True Body above his head emitted a tremendous suction force.
"Restriction, Spirit Particle Deprivation!"
After he used this move, everyone else realized something was wrong and showed expressions of disbelief.
"My... my Dharma Power is disappearing, stop him!"
Despite her surprise, Nangong Ya remained calm and formed a hand seal, instantly summoning a giant fire dragon that charged towards Chen Mu.
The others reacted immediately, activating their Dharma Aspect True Body to rush towards Chen Mu.
Boom! Bang bang bang!
Chen Mu's Dharma Aspect True Body strolled leisurely amidst the encirclement, easily destroying and forcing back the attacks of the others.
Before long, everyone discovered a startling fact: they were growing weaker and weaker, while Chen Mu's Dharma Aspect True Body was growing stronger and stronger. The battle turned into a one-sided affair, with Chen Mu easily crushing them.
"Your use of Dharma Power and runes is too crude!"
Chen Mu's tone was full of regret.
The reason why Battle Talisman Master is so powerful is because of the runes fused within their body. Only by skillfully controlling the power of the runes within their body can they maximize the advantages of their Dharma Power.
However, these eight cultivators at the Dharma Core Realm in the Battle Talisman Department only had a superficial understanding of most of the runes within their bodies, and could only skillfully use a small portion of them. This was like a child holding a sharp longsword; although it posed a threat, the threat was very limited.
"Fine! I'll show you what a true Battle Talisman Master is!"
Chen Mu shook his head, raised one hand high, and a huge Five Elements Ring spun above his head.
" The Five Elements Rotation, All Things in Myriad Phenomena!!"
He shouted and slammed the Five Elements Ring on his head to the ground.
Puff puff puff...!
Countless trees rose from the ground, and in an instant, everyone seemed to be in a forest, which enveloped the entire training ground.
They could even see the textures of the leaves on the trees, so realistic that it was almost impossible to tell that they were formed from Dharma Power.
Moments later, the trees burst into flames, and the scorching fire reduced them to ashes.
Immediately afterwards, the ashes fell to the ground and turned into yellowish-brown soil.
Gradually, golden minerals emerged from the sticky soil.
As a result of the effects of these minerals, thunder rumbled in the sky, and soon a torrential downpour began.
After the heavy rain, the saplings slowly grew from the ground and became large trees.
These five scenes formed a profound cycle, as if they contained the ultimate truth of this world, and the eight people of the Battle Talisman Department seemed to have an epiphany in an instant.
" The Dao of Talismans is the way to analyze all things in heaven and earth."
To unleash the full power of Battle Talisman Master, one must have a profound understanding of the composition of all things. The deeper your understanding, the stronger you can unleash the power of runes, until finally possessing the power to destroy everything, just like this!
As Chen Mu spoke, he reached out and inhaled, and the object formed by the Five Elements Ring began to dissipate, turning into blue light spots that condensed in his hand and slowly transformed into a blue light blade.
" Spirit Particle Cluster Blade, that's the name I gave it!"
Its power is too great for me to demonstrate, but I can tell you a little something: I once used it to cut through a damaged ninth-grade defensive magic weapon.
Chen Mu's casual remark left everyone speechless.
A ninth-grade magic weapon—that's a legendary Huai Sacred Artifact, usually possessed only by experts at the Late Creation Realm or higher.
Even a damaged defensive magic weapon of this level is still made of materials that can withstand the attacks of a Late Creation Realm expert, but Chen Mu claimed that the blue light blade he had just condensed could cut them in half.
This means that the blue light blade's destructive power reached the level of the Late Creation Realm. So, just how strong was Chen Mu?
"I'm not fighting anymore! I give up!"
Nangong Tong was the first to put away her weapon; she had known this would be the outcome, and her fighting spirit had never been high.
The other experts from the Battle Talisman Department also put away their weapons, their faces filled with shame.
"From today onwards, you all need to study the basic runes properly."
The war against the Otherworldly Demon in the future won't be like playing house now. I don't want you all to die out there!
Chen Mu's tone became unusually stern.
The Ancient Desolate Remnant Clan have been living in seclusion for a long time. Although they have a long history and a rich family tradition, they have rarely participated in wars over the past thousands of years.
They are too disorganized right now and clearly haven't entered a state of combat readiness. Chen Mu cannot trust them in this state.
"Yes! Tomorrow I will lead everyone deep into the mining area to kill monsters and hone our rune skills!"
Two months from now, we will definitely go out to fight with a brand new look!
Lu Xinghai's expression was solemn, his eyes filled with deep shame.
Although Nangong Tong is the head of the Battle Talisman Department, the daily training of the Battle Talisman Department is actually handled by Lu Xinghai, the deputy head, who often acts more like the real head than Nangong Tong.
"Excellent! Shame has spurred you on; you're still a fine soldier!"
Chen Mu nodded, his eyes filled with admiration as he looked at Lu Xinghai.
His reason for establishing the Battle Talisman Department was not merely to use Battle Talisman Department as a fighting force, but to bring together more Battle Talisman Master, pooling their wisdom and greatly helping him to deduce the cultivation system of Battle Talisman Master.
Relying solely on his own cultivation data is insufficient to perfect the Battle Talisman Master System. To break through to higher realms in the future, he must gather cultivation data from more people and utilize the deductions of the Rune Core. Only in this way can the future path of the Battle Talisman Master be sufficiently powerful.
"Alright, everyone disperse. Go back and cultivate diligently."
Little Tong, I need your help with something else. Come with me!
Chen Mu withdrew the surrounding power and left with Nangong Tong.
Half an hour later, Nangong Tong followed Chen Mu deeper into the Ancient Desolate Mining Area.
"Master, what are you doing here? Could it be...?"
"That's right, I plan to go and pick Spirit Origin Fruit!"
Chen Mu had long coveted the Spirit Essence Fruit Tree here, but he hadn't had enough strength before. This time, his return to the mining area was also for the Spirit Essence Fruit Tree.
Upon hearing this, Nangong Tong's eyes lit up, revealing an expectant expression.
The two moved swiftly through the forest. Chen Mu released his aura, and the weaker monsters dared not approach. They glanced at them from afar and then turned and fled.
roar...!
After entering the depths of the forest, Chen Mu finally encountered a Demon King Realm beast that attacked him.
Chen Mu simply reached out and patted the Demon King's body slightly. An invisible force pierced through the Demon King's body, causing him to tremble slightly before collapsing to the ground, instantly losing all life force.
