Chapter 2293 Rapid Production
Having witnessed one of the creations of the Chimeric Fiend God, Lin Mu and the group finally understood just how terrifying its reign would have been.
"It truly is made for war… It is basically a factory of beasts." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke, feeling fear not only of the plant but also its creator.
It was the sort of fear one could feel even if the being they were fearing had long since passed away. It was an innate fear that kept people alive and was present, even if one had become an immortal.
"Monk Hushu is right." Lin Mu said, having observed it all. "We should kill them before they grow any stronger. This isn't at the level we can control them and farm them… there is no telling when they can go out of control. Not to mention the entire plant is corrosive for us." He stated.
"Amithabha, the teachings of the Buddha are never incorrect." Monk Hushu spoke as the prayer beads in his hands started to tremble lightly.
It was clear that even the conscience of the prayer beads was unable to accept the existence of the Chimeric Beasts and the Chimera Plant.
"I see it now." Lady Kang agreed. "It is not worth the risk." She changed the thoughts she had previously.
"I agree about killing them too… But where are the rest of them?" Daoist Chu asked, bringing the matter to everyone's notice.
"Huh," Lin Mu looked around and saw that other than the Chimeric Beasts that had been recently born, there were no others.
"Yeah, weren't there supposed to be a lot of Chimeric beasts around the plant?" Qiao De inquired.
Lin Mu furrowed his brows and spread his immortal sense to scan for any presence of Chimeric Beasts. But strangely enough, there were none of them within a ten kilometer range of the group.
"Did they wander off?" Lin Mu wondered.
~SCREECH~
But he didn't get to think about that long, as the Chimeric Beasts below finally noticed them. "Never mind, let's finish these off first." Lin Mu said as he directly swung Afternoon Pine.
~SHING~SHING~SHING~
Golden yellow sword slashes were released from the blade, and struck down the Chimeric Beasts that had cultivation bases varying from the First Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm to the third stage.
"Yeah, let's clear them out and then the plant." Crown Prince Feng Shun agreed and threw out his plans, creating sharp gusts of winds that targeted the Chimeric Beasts.
~WHOOSH~WHOOSH~WHOOSH~
The others joined in as well, since they too wanted the Credits from the slaying of chimeric beasts. The group didn't take long to kill at the Chimeric Beasts that had been born, as there was just over a hundred of them. ~huu~
Lin Mu took a deep breath, and approached the Fruiting Bodies of the Chimera Plant. 'Senior Xukong said that the insides of the Fruiting body should be its weakness.' Lin Mu thought to himself. "But getting past this dripping sap is going to be difficult." He muttered. freēwebnovel.com
"Can't we just attack it from here?" Daoist Chu suggested.
"We can try." Lin Mu nodded his head and raised Afternoon Pine.
~HUMM~
Sword Intent and Metal elemental immortal Qi flowed into the sword, as Lin Mu intended to destroy the Fruiting Body in one go. There were several of them hanging from the tree, and as such, they needed to see if they could destroy at least one before the others made more Chimeric Beasts.
~SHING~
A large sword slash filled with overwhelming Sword Intent rushed towards the Fruiting Body. It was targeted towards one of the openings on its sides and soon passed through it, leaving long cut marks on the surface.
"At least the surface of the Fruiting Body can be damaged by it." Qiao De said. ~SPLAT~
Once the sword slash struck the inner surface of the Fruiting Body, it ravaged it. The sap and corrosive fluids started to splash around, while the Sword Intent started to shred the Fruiting Body from the inside.
"Get back!" Lin Mu sensed the impending danger and warned.
~HUA~HUA~HUA~HUA~
Thankfully, the talismans that Daoist Chu had made came in handy. They automatically created multiple layers of barriers around them, as the Fruiting Body finally exploded.

~BOOM~
Its parts splashed everywhere, as sizzling sounds could soon be heard. It also splashed on the talisman barrier and started to degrade them within seconds.
~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~
Tens of layers broke in one go, while Daoist Chu hurried to deploy more talismans.
"This is crazy!" Daoist Chu hadn't expected them to be destroyed so easily by the fluids of the Fruiting Body. "We cannot destroy them from up close like this next time." Lin Mu nodded his head, knowing that this was partly a mistake on his side. "It's not over yet," Ziran said, noticing the movement in the other Fruiting Bodies.
~SQUELCH~SQUELCH~
"They're being released!" Crown Prince Feng Shun exclaimed.
"All of the pods are opening!" Crown Princess Shang observed. ~HUALA~
As if that was not enough, the entire Chimeric Plants seemed to have now come 'alive'.
Its branches started to sway, while the broad leaves on its top started to guzzle Death Qi at a rapid pace.
~CREAK~
The twisted branches started to unravel, and new branches extended from the trunk of the plant.
~SCREECH~
Soon, the Chimeric Beasts were released from the five or so Fruiting Bodies, and they were dropped to the ground. ~SPLASH~
The Chimera plant seemed to have gone into an overdrive, as a waterfall of the foul sap stared to pour out of thorns the Fruiting Bodies. This sap covered the Chimeric Beasts that had fallen down, and they began to absorb it.
~HUALA~HUALA~HUALA~
The group felt the rapidly rising Qi fluctuations and could see the Chimeric beasts growing in size too.
"Doesn't this feel like…" Daoist Chu realized something.
"The Berserk ability… They're directly activating it." Lin Mu said, drawing out Ocean Raker as well.
