Chapter 1120: Even Perennials Can Be Killed (2)
Boom! Boom! Boom! The three explosions ripped through the void like detonating celestial bodies. Each blast sent terrifying shockwaves rippling outward in all directions, causing Wu Yuan's River Ring to waver slightly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The nine swords orbiting Wu Yuan's body sprang into action. Their gleaming blades pulsed with brilliant light as sword qi erupted from their surfaces, forming a powerful domain that effortlessly absorbed the explosive force. Within moments, the disturbed region of spacetime settled back into calm.
They're quite stubborn, choosing destruction over capture. Wu Yuan thought, observing the aftermath. If only my Five Elements Sealing Hand were more powerful. If I had Perennial level mana, I could have suppressed them directly.
However, the detonation of three second-stage Overlord powerhouses couldn't shatter the River Ring? Wu Yuan nodded slightly.
His qi refiner self had indeed grown dramatically stronger over the last thirty thousand years ago.
With a casual wave of his hand, Wu Yuan collected the various treasures the three Overlords had dropped.
He understood their desperate choice. The destruction of mana and ether bodies wasn't a big deal—they could return a million years later after cultivating new ones. The treasures they carried were also ordinary.
But if their mana and ether bodies were completely immobilized, even self-destruction would be difficult, it would leave them vulnerable to targeted karmic attacks.
This explained the consensus among countless powerhouses throughout the cosmic sea: better to destroy one's mana or ether body than allow them to be captured by an enemy.
A Perennial powerhouse from the Que Luo race is coming? Wu Yuan mused, recalling their final words. I wonder how formidable their combat power will be.
If a Perennial's true self appeared, their power would be overwhelming, though such an occurrence was highly improbable. If only their mana or ether body arrived, they would be considerably weaker.
