Chapter 2351 Total Annihilation
~TWANG~
With a resonant sound, Mortal Reminder was launched as the bowstring of Wonder Seeker kept on vibrating.
~WHOOSH~
The arrow tore through the air, leaving behind a trail of light which was a mix of gold, green, silver and blue colors. These colors all mixed together, making it hard to perceive just what was contained in all it. But at the same time, an unsettling feeling could also be felt, as if the arrow itself was an envoy of distress.
~SHICK~
The group didn't get to see the arrow for long though, as it soon pierced into the base of the Chimera Plant.
With how the Mortal Reminder Arrow had been made, Lin Mu no longer needed to aim precisely at the weak points of the Chimera Plant. The base of the Chimera Plant where the roots were attached was weaker than its trunk, thus the arrow had no issues piercing through it.
What was surprising though was the fact that Lin Mu had little to aim with the arrow, it had actually changed the path on its own, as if being guided by an unseen force. This brought the arrow to a small knotted spot at its base that had scabbed over after being injured some time in the past. While it was unknown how it had become injured, it was certainly going to be exploited now.
~CRACK~
Upon piercing, the impact seemingly shattered parts of the arrow, though the impact of it was still delivered into the plant.
Half of the arrow was buried this way, leaving the rest of the shaft outside. 'Did it work?' everyone wondered, as they gazed at the arrow.
The effects were not visible to them, but inside the curse of the Black Hex Raven Tears spread rapidly, seemingly corrupting the plant's flesh. The impact also ravaged its insides as the Qi spread through it, quickly causing cracks to form in its base.
This of course, combined with the attacks from its fruiting body, soon led to a mass destabilization of the entire Chimera Plant.
~CRACK~CRAKC~CRACK~
The cracks spread from the base, and met the cracks coming from the branches. In just a minute, the entire chimera plant was covered in cracks, while the group quickly distanced themselves from it. They didn't even care for the Chimeric Beasts that were trying to give them a chase, since they knew it was all useless.
~WHOOSH~
Little Shrubby ran as fast as he could, trying to carry them away. Lin Mu urged him to do so, not knowing how dangerous it could get.
'This is a bigger than the previous Chimera Plant. Who knows how much Death Qi it has absorbed and how big the impact of it would be.' Lin Mu thought.
Just the Death Qi sea it had managed to accumulate was massive, and if the group had dived into it without precaution, they would have certainly been affected by it a lot. Thankful they had already learned from their past experiences and could stay away from it.
Though the same could not be said for the Chimeric beast swarms that had been produced by the Chimera Plant, as they were soon swept up into the explosion.
~KABOOM!~
Just as Lin Mu had expected, the explosion was a lot bigger than before. It quickly covered an area of over fifty kilometers while spreading its shockwave further than that.
"UGH! HOLD ON!" Lin Mu warned them all as the shockwave reached them.
~WOONG~
The group already had their defenses up, so they didn't get injured from it, but the shockwave did end up helping push them away even further. Little Shrubby was unscathed too, as he was could take such an impact with no issues.
After all, his own acceleration and deceleration often delivered similar impacts.
But the entire event still ended up with them being sent at least a hundred and fifty kilometers away!
Lin Mu didn't dare to stop before that, for the Death Qi sea could be observed extending further than ever before.
If bore the sea was hovering above the ground, now it covered everything and truly turned into a 'sea'.
"Whoa…" Daoist Chu explained as the group finally came to a stop high in the sky.
From here, they could very easily see the aftereffects of the explosion. A black mushroom shaped cloud could still be seen rising in the sky, while on the bottom, a pitch black sea covered a massive expanse of area.
"Amithabha… this should work." Monk Hushu prayed.
~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~
And just a few seconds after he did that, everyone's green bands lit up.
Numbers appeared above it before they started to jump at the speed of light.
"We're getting the credits!" Qiao De shouted in excitement.
The numbers jumped nonstop for everyone, but there were still variations among them. The rising numbers stopped the first for Min Ju, and next it stopped for Qiao De. The third person was Monk Hushu, and then there were Ziran, Daoist Chu, Elder Hu in unison. The final ones to were none other than Crown Prince Feng Shun, Lady Kang and in the end, Lin Mu.
"Heavens be blessed!" Qiao De exclaimed loudly upon seine his gains. "This is… HUNDRED MILLION!?" he almost couldn't believe his eyes.
The number on his wrist had jumped by a hundred million. "What about you all?" his eyes darted around, trying to compare. But once he saw what the others were getting, he was left utterly speechless.
"Even more?!?" Qiao De saw that only he and Min Ju got similar credits, while all others got higher credits than him.
Lin Mu was left flabbergasted too, as he comprehended the effect of the arrow that he had made. 'That was way better than I thought…' Lin Mu reckoned as he saw the credits which had already hit nearly four hundred million!
He was sure that this number was not just from the Chimera Plant but from the Chimeric beasts that had been produced by it too, as none of them could now be seen on the Chimera Radar.
