Jianchen stared at the behemoth that had lost its head and was riddled with holes. His heart was in turmoil. Jianchen found it unbelievable that the war behemoth was still alive after suffering such fatal injuries.
The gentle and murderous notes of the zither constantly rang out. The Heavenly Enchantress remained calm the entire time. She constantly plucked the strings with her right hand, sending powerful sound waves at the war behemoth.
The war behemoth became even more heavily injured after suffering such a dense barrage of sound waves. Its arms had been broken and most of its chest had been shattered. Its three-hundred-meter-tall body had shrunk to a hundred and fifty meters.
If other magical beasts were in such a state, they would have long been destroyed in body and soul. However, this War Behemoth did not seem to have suffered the slightest bit of damage. The remaining half of its body and thick legs continued to stride over from afar. Every step it took was enough to cause mountains to crumble and the earth to tremble incessantly.
Very soon, the war behemoth was less than a thousand meters away from Jianchen and the Heavenly Enchantress.
Without a doubt, Jian Chen became stern. His Ruler Armament, Dragonslayer, had already appeared in his hand. However, there was a tiny crack on the sword, which made the Ruler Armament seem imperfect.
The scene before him was strange. The war behemoth seemed like an unkillable Class 7 Magical Beast. Jianchen struggled to remain calm as this was the first time he had seen it.
At this moment, a series of hurried notes rang out. The Heavenly Enchantress' right hand immediately slid across the zither and sixteen of the thirty-six strings were plucked in a single moment. Immediately, a series of sound waves appeared, forming visible ripples that enveloped the space in front of her. They intertwined like a spider's web, forming a net that rapidly shot toward the war behemoth.
The net formed by the sound waves passed through the war beast's body without any resistance and disappeared into the distance. Soon after, the war beast's huge body collapsed, turning into meter-wide chunks of meat that fell to the ground. Its entire body had been sliced into countless pieces by the sound wave net, dying without a complete corpse.
The light in Jianchen's eyes flickered as he stared at the war behemoth that had been cut into countless pieces. He did not see any blood at all, which was very abnormal.
"Senior, what happened?" Jianchen was filled with endless doubt as he asked the Heavenly Enchantress.
The Heavenly Enchantress pondered for a while before replying, "This war behemoth has already been dead for countless years. It's only survived as a walking corpse due to certain reasons in the Sea of Illusory Stars. However, it has no soul, no pain, and no blood. It only has an indestructible body that retains the strength of a Saint Ruler."
"An indestructible body?" Jianchen murmured. He thought about what had happened earlier and sank into his thoughts.
"It's impossible to kill the war behemoth before us no matter what you do. Even if you cut it to pieces, it'll be able to recover before long," continued the Heavenly Enchantress.
As if to prove what she had said, the countless chunks of flesh began to roll in the same direction as soon as she finished speaking. They reformed into the three-hundred-meter-tall war behemoth in just a short while. It was completely unscathed, and even its head had recovered. There were no signs of injury at all.
Jianchen's eyes suddenly narrowed to the size of a needle. He immediately gasped and sighed in amazement, "There's actually such a strange thing in the world. I've really learned something today." Jianchen looked at the Heavenly Enchantress and asked, "Senior, may I ask how we can deal with this war behemoth?"
"Every time it reassembles its body, it will consume a large amount of energy and weaken slightly. There's only one way to deal with it right now, and that's to constantly shatter its body and exhaust its energy until it can no longer reform its body," said the Heavenly Enchantress.
"Can't we avoid it?" Jianchen asked.
"If we do that, it'll continue to follow you. At the same time, we don't dare to advance blindly in the Sea of Illusory Stars, so shaking it off is impossible. Once it continues to follow you, the disturbance will draw over even more Class 7 Magical Beasts and Saint Rulers who have become like them." As she said that, the Heavenly Enchantress plucked the strings of her zither and continued to attack the war behemoth with sound waves.
Jianchen gritted his teeth as he watched the war behemoth draw closer and closer. He charged up with his Ruler Armament to engage in battle with the war behemoth. With the two of them working together, the Class 7 War Behemoth didn't last long before it was chopped into pieces again.
However, it reassembled its body very soon. It produced a deafening roar and instinctively attacked Jianchen.
The war behemoth was cut to pieces time and time again by Jianchen and the Heavenly Enchantress. Each time it reassembled its body, it would become much weaker. After killing it over a dozen times, the war behemoth finally ran out of energy and could no longer reform its body. Its pieces scattered on the ground.
The Heavenly Enchantress leisurely made her way over from afar with her zither. She did not even glance at the war behemoth and said, "The Class 7 Magical Beasts here have already been dead for who knows how many years. They don't have any monster cores to take from their bodies. Once they absorb enough energy, they'll continue to reform their bodies. Even burning their bodies to ashes won't stop them from reviving. Let's go. We've caused far too much of a disturbance, so other Class 7 Magical Beasts will probably hurry over before long. "
Jianchen stared deeply at the countless pieces of the war behemoth's corpse. He said nothing and silently followed the Heavenly Enchantress into the distance.
Just as the two of them traveled ten kilometers, they immediately sensed several powerful presences appear behind them. There were magical beasts and humans among the presences, and they were all Saint Rulers. Soon afterward, another dozen or so weaker presences appeared behind them. They were all Class 6 Magical Beasts and human Heaven Saint Masters.
Jianchen looked back. Through the thin mist, he could vaguely make out a few humans and a few huge magical beasts patrolling the vicinity of the war behemoth. Jianchen knew that they were existences similar to the war behemoth. They had already been dead for who knew how many years, only leaving behind their bodies. They had become walking corpses under the influence of a mysterious power in the Sea of Illusory Stars. They had no consciousness or soul, only acting on instinct.
"Conceal your presence. Don't make any disturbances that will alarm them. Although we're not afraid, it'll be troublesome if they keep pestering us," the Heavenly Enchantress' voice rang out in Jianchen's head.
"Just how many Class 7 Magical Beasts and Saint Rulers are there?" Jianchen asked. He was extremely stern. The Class 7 Magical Beasts and Saint Rulers that lived in the Sea of Illusory Stars were all unkillable. They could not feel pain or fear, so it would be extremely troublesome if the two of them ended up surrounded. They might even lose their lives.
"The Sea of Illusory Stars has already existed for countless years. During that time, many human experts and high class magical beasts have entered. Some of them have died in battle for treasures, while others have died because of the Sea of Illusory Stars. Over the years, the number of experts who have died in the Sea of Illusory Stars has reached an extremely terrifying number. Every single person who has died will become like them. They will never die and live as long as the heavens. There are even a few Saint Rulers among them who were influential figures hundreds of thousands of years ago. As a result, the number of Saint Rulers and high class magical beasts in the Sea of Illusory Stars will only increase and not decrease. Probably even powerful organizations like the protector clans and Mercenary City don't know just how many Saint Rulers there are in the Sea of Illusory Stars. "
"Other than Saint Rulers, there are also Holy Emperor level experts and Class 8 Magical Beasts. As a result, you have to be careful when you move around here. Once you come across those walking corpses, you can't provoke them even if they're just Heaven Saint Masters, because once you provoke them, the disturbance will draw over even more powerful experts. If you die in the Sea of Illusory Stars, you'll become a walking corpse just like them," the Heavenly Enchantress said through a communication technique.
Jianchen's heart became even heavier when he heard that. The Sea of Illusory Stars really was one of the most dangerous places on the Tian Yuan Continent, second only to the Death Nest. Heaven Saint Masters would definitely die if they entered this place. Only Saint Rulers had the power to protect themselves, but even with that being the case, they still had to be careful, or they would face the danger of dying if they were careless.
Suddenly, the scene in front of him changed drastically. The original island disappeared in an instant, replaced by a boundless desert. In the sky, a fiery red scorching sun emitted a terrifying heat that baked the earth, causing the temperature of the world to reach an extremely terrifying level.
"Oh no, we've fallen into a formation," the Heavenly Enchantress said with a heavy voice as she frowned slightly.
Jian Chen immediately took out his Ruler Armament, Dragonslayer, and vigilantly observed his surroundings. He had already adjusted himself to his peak condition and was ready for battle. He had already witnessed the terror of the Sea of Illusory Stars, so he did not dare to be careless at all.
Suddenly, the ground began to violently tremble. The place where Jianchen and the Heavenly Enchantress stood gradually sank. At the same time, their feet were stuck to by the flowing sand, dragging them down.
"Fly!" The Heavenly Enchantress coldly said. She plucked the strings and a sound wave immediately struck the ground, dispersing the sand that stuck to her feet. She then immediately drifted into the air.
Jianchen did not hesitate either. Chaotic Force circulated wildly in his body before gathering under his feet and spurting out. The destructive energy reduced the sand to dust as he immediately rose into the air.
The sand beneath their feet rapidly sank, forming a huge black hole in the end. A foul smell filled the air. Just a single breath was enough to suffocate people.
Soon after, the entire desert began to tremble violently. In the end, it formed a huge monster that was over ten thousand meters long. The black hole beneath their feet was the monster's huge mouth, which was emitting a foul stench.
The monster seemed like a gecko that had been enlarged countless times. It was earthy yellow and radiated with intense heat. It was completely condensed from sand.
