Chapter 141: The Crystal Barrier

Seeing that Mu completely ignored him, Byian of Sea Horse said no more. He immediately burned his Cosmo to its absolute peak and threw a punch straight ahead.

"Be buried forever in this deep sea, Aries!"

"God's Breath!"

The power of his Cosmo merged into the wind of his fist, instantly transforming into a gigantic tornado.

In a fraction of a second, wherever the tornado passed, the ground cracked, coral snapped, and all the rocks along the way were completely pulverized, rushing toward its target like a ferocious dragon of raging winds.

"In this Realm of the Sea, your attack is somewhat stronger than last time, but it is still not enough to shatter my 'Crystal Wall'." Mu likewise ignited his Cosmo and took a slight step back.

Thud!

Just as it was about to swallow its target, the ferocious wind dragon seemed to be blocked by an invisible layer of wall, unable to penetrate a single inch further.

That was the "Crystal Wall" set up by Mu through psychokinesis, capable of deflecting all physical and non-physical attacks.

Whoosh!

Following that, the invisible Crystal Wall rippled gently, and the destructive momentum of the violent tornado was instantly reversed, rushing back toward the direction it came from.

"What a troublesome technique!"

Having witnessed it earlier, Byian had made ample preparations this time. The moment he discovered the tornado was blocked, he leaped into the air ahead of time, preparing to dodge the ultimate move about to be deflected back.

Unfortunately, while he managed to dodge, quite a few of the Seaain guards behind him suffered a terrible fate.

The other Seaain guards had no idea the tornado could be deflected, nor had they taken any precautions. The tornado roared through the crowd, and amid a chorus of miserable shrieks, more than a dozen men were struck by the tornado, their bodies twisting as they collapsed onto the ground, utterly lifeless.

However, at this moment, no one cared about those unlucky fellows. The instant Byian struck, all the Seaain guards excitedly charged forward.

Now was the time to pledge their loyalty to Lord Poseidon!

Regrettably, Mu's "Crystal Wall" could not only block the power of Cosmo but also possessed extremely formidable physical defense capabilities.

It was truly and solidly an invisible wall!

The group of Seaain guards swarmed forward, only to be blocked completely outside the Crystal Wall, unable to pass through at all.

Some attempted to smash it open with their fists, but ultimately, just like the previously deflected tornado, they were bounced away by their own power.

Others circled the Crystal Wall inch by inch, attempting to bypass it from the edge and get behind Mu.

Yet Mu had already considered this possibility before setting up the Crystal Wall. He shaped the Crystal Wall into a sphere that enveloped all three of them entirely, even making arrangements beneath the ground so that no obvious flaws were left behind.

The Crystal Wall had become an insurmountable barrier for the Seaain guards.

"Relying on you alone, it is utterly impossible to break through my Crystal Wall. You had better save your breath and effort!" Mu looked at Byian of Sea Horse outside the Crystal Wall and said expressionlessly.

As for the remaining Seaain guards, he did not take a single one of them to heart.

The vast gap in realms allowed him to completely disregard their numbers.

"Since one is not enough, how about adding another one, Aries?"

Accompanied by a burst of laughter, yet another powerful Cosmo aura arrived on the battlefield.

It was a Sea General clad in dark golden Scales.

"Greetings, Lord Io!"

The Seaain guards bowed one after another.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Mu did not feel the slightest bit of surprise.

The North and South Pacific Sea Realms were connected. Io of Scylla was the closest to this location, making him the most convenient reinforcement and the one most likely to arrive.

"You have reinforcements, and so do I!" Mu looked up toward the sky, a trace of a smile revealing itself.

"Hmm?"

Both Byian and Io were completely baffled.

Suddenly, a streak of golden light flashed across the canopy of the sky, shooting straight into the battlefield and aiming directly at their enemy—Mu.

"It has been a long time, my good friend!"

Behind the Crystal Wall, Mu opened his arms and secretly controlled the transformation of the Crystal Wall, carving out a temporary passage for the golden light.

Swish!

The moment the golden light shot inside the Crystal Wall, it suddenly dispersed, evenly adhering to every part of Mu's body.

When the radiance subsided, a brilliant golden armor had already materialized upon Mu's body.

"Is that the legendary Gold Cloth?" Looking at the armor on Mu, Shun could not help but pause his mining motions.

Having always trained on Andromeda Island, he had not yet been to Sanctuary and had never seen a Gold Cloth. Today was the first time he laid eyes on a fully donned Gold Saint.

The powerful Cosmo aura permeated the entire space within the Crystal Wall, bringing him an extraordinary sense of reassurance.

"Shun, hurry up with the mining and stop looking around!" Hearing the sound of his pickaxe cease, Yin Shi immediately reminded him.

"Yes, Senior!"

At these words, Shun snapped out of it immediately; now was not the time for him to admire the demeanor of a Gold Saint.

Simultaneously, a warning from Mu echoed in the ears of the two men.

"In this Realm of the Sea, my strength is suppressed. Even with the Gold Cloth, I can only barely hold them off."

"We must complete the mining task as quickly as possible and leave this place!"

If the time dragged on too long, even he might die here.

"Understood, Mr. Mu!"

Yin Shi and Shun responded in unison, accelerating their mining speed once again.

However, neither of the two opposing sides, currently locked in intense concentration and confrontation, noticed a massive crocodile head protruding from the sky above.

It stared intently at the two mining individuals and muttered to itself, "That must be the orichalcum ore Lord Sobek spoke of, right?"

"However, those three fellows wearing golden armor look rather formidable. I had better wait a bit longer."

"I just wonder what this bunch of Seaain guards tastes like; will they be as plump and delicious as the big fish in the Nile River?"

"Sluuurp~"

With that, it shifted its attention back to the group of Seaain guards clad in dark green Scales and took a heavy drag of its drool.

Down on the ground, watching Mu fully equipped in his armor, Io said coldly, "What if you have a Gold Cloth? At most, it is merely equivalent to our Scales. It still cannot change the overwhelming disparity in numbers between the two of us!"

"Attack!"

With an angry shout, he gathered his Cosmo power into his right hand and unleashed his ultimate technique straight ahead.

"Grizzly Slap!"

The power of his Cosmo was released from his fist, transforming into a towering grizzly bear that lunged toward the crystal barrier ahead.

Byian of Sea Horse did not fall behind, tacitly unleashing his own ultimate punch at the very same time.

"Mammoth Hurricane!"

With a single punch, a sea dozens of meters high surged from the flat ground, wrapping around a hurricane and joining the grizzly bear in launching an offensive against that invisible barrier.

Boom!

Facing the combined strike of the two Sea Generals, Mu's Crystal Wall showed signs of strain. After a brief stalemate, it proved unable to deflect the attack; instead, upon reaching the absolute limit of its structural endurance, it shattered instantly.

However, Mu had long anticipated this scenario. Before the Crystal Wall shattered, he had already gathered his Cosmo power and brewed his own supreme attack.

"Starlight Extinction!"
