It was as if there was a layer of invisible armor covered with spikes covering the body of the horse-faced eagle monster, which not only protected the body but also could launch powerful cutting and piercing attacks.
This is……
The power of Dharma? !
The surface of this monster is actually covered with a layer of Dharma power!
In a flash, Chen Mu instantly realized that this invisible armor was the true face of the Dharma. It was like the aura of a celestial demon or god, combining power and defense into one!
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he roared and exerted force suddenly.
open!
Chen Mu lifted up the huge wings and counterattacked with a sudden burst of power, causing the horse-faced eagle monster to stagger.
As if enraged, the harpy roared continuously, flapped its wings again in frustration, and slashed towards Chen Mu fiercely.
But Chen Mu was not panicked. Instead, his eyes lit up and he stared at the aura of the horse-headed eagle monster.
At this moment, the perception of the monster's aura, the origin of the five ghosts' possession, the true meaning of the five dragons' Dharma images, and so on emerged in his mind one by one, and then they were like being crushed and mixed by a whirlpool, and quickly merged into one.
Chen Mu's eyes suddenly burst into great surprise, and he suddenly activated the power of the Yin Spirit.
The Dharma image that had just been smashed reappeared above his head, then fell from the sky and whooshed into his body.
Five dragons become one!
hum!
An invisible force suddenly surged around him.
At this moment, the Five Dragon Dharma Images, the Hundred Miles Qi Ban, the body's protective aura, and his own defensive steel skin merged into one, and the scattered forces were twisted into one, all transformed into a qi energy that enveloped his body.
Feeling the tremendous force surging through his body like volcanic magma, Chen Mu grinned, revealing a row of sharp white teeth, his face full of a cold smile.
He stretched out his hands into claws, and the energy in his body stretched and deformed, like a pair of invisible hands, suddenly grasping and lifting up towards the sky.
boom!
As the energy surged, the huge wings that were about to chop down were suddenly fixed in mid-air.
Chen Mu grinned, feeling the touch as if he was holding it in his hand even though they were several meters apart.
I wanted to let you go.
But you keep pressing on.
Don’t blame me for being rude!
Haha!
Giant Spirit God!
A giant statue appeared behind him, and its already enormous power surged three times again.
Immediately, he raised his arms fiercely upwards, as if he was swinging two long ropes.
Woo!
The mountain-like body of the horse-faced monster was immediately dragged off the ground. As Chen Mu twisted his waist and turned over, he was involuntarily thrown over his head and smashed into the ground.
Without waiting for the monster to get up, Chen Mu suddenly jumped up, put his hands together to form a sword, and the power of the Five Dragon Dharma Images gathered and extended, like an invisible giant blade, slashing towards the head of the horse-faced eagle-bodied monster.
The harpy monster's Qi and the combined power of the five dragons collided, like two gears with different directions colliding with each other.
Dang Dang Dang...
A series of intensive metal collision sounds were heard.
"Die!"
The giant spirit suddenly attacked with a sudden increase in power, just like the five dragons just now, and the energy on the surface of the horse-faced eagle-bodied monster was chopped into pieces with a bang.
How could Chen Mu miss such an opportunity? His Yin Spirit power surged wildly, and the blade-like aura extending from his hands became more and more fierce.
The monster struggled and dodged instinctively, but it was too late.
puff!
Blood flowers rose into the sky.
Accompanied by a shrill scream, without the protection of Qi, the left wing of the horse-faced eagle monster was easily cut off from its body.
Haha!
The combination of the five dragons can indeed break the monster's protective aura.
Chen Mu was overjoyed, and was about to press on to attack and kill the monster completely.
But the horse-faced eagle-bodied monster was like a snake with its head cut off. It rolled and twisted violently. Chen Mu was caught off guard and was suddenly blown into the air.
When he steadied himself and was about to continue attacking, he didn't expect the eagle monster's broken body to explode, turning into dense swarms of dark insects that soared into the sky.
In just a blink of an eye, they dispersed into the surrounding mountains and forests and disappeared.
"I was still too slow after all."
Chen Mu looked at the vague shadow of the Forgotten River emerging in the dense forest with a look of regret.

Chapter 504: Calculate
In Qiandeng City, ten huge soul-guiding lamps illuminate the pitch-black cave.
Chen Mu sat cross-legged on the soft couch on the third-floor balcony. He slowly opened his eyes and squinted at the Five Dragons Sutra on the gray wall.
Five Dragons Sutra: 7378/10000/Level ;
"The experience points increased by more than 2,000 at once. It turns out that the path of combining the five dragons into one is the right one." Chen Mu looked delighted.
"The correct order of Dharmakāya is to first form the protective Qi, and then as the Qi grows stronger, gradually form the phantom of the gods and demons."
"The Five Dragons Sutra is more like an imitation of the complete Dharmakāya. But it first simulates the surface of the Dharmakāya, which is the phantom of the gods and demons, and then waits for the Dharmakāya to be fully developed before feeding back to the body to form a protective aura."
"The Divine Embryo Dharma Image is an imitation of the Qi of the Heavenly Demon Gods and Devils, and the Five Dragons Sutra is an imitation of the Divine Embryo Dharma Image."
"Imitating again? Tsk tsk...interesting."
Chen Mu comprehended the information fed back by the gray wall with great interest.
Originally, his training sequence should have been like this, but after closely observing the strange monster's portable Qi, combined with his previous insights, he successfully realized the unity of the Five Dragons. Without waiting for the Five Dragons' Dharma to mature, he first cultivated an alternative portable Qi.
This was not the Qi formed by the Five Dragons Dharma, but an alternative ability he had built based on the Five Dragons Dharma. It was a fusion of the Qi Ban of 100 Miles, the protective aura, and the strong body he had gained from years of practice.
Chen Mu estimated that in terms of defensive capability alone, the protective aura of the Five Dragons Combined into One was no less than that of the real Five Dragons Dharmakaya.
Moreover, after integrating the ability of the Five Dragon Dharmakāya to absorb essence and devour souls, its lethality is also not low.
"Hey! Lu Liang is right, this secret method really is both offensive and defensive!"
Thinking back to the previous battle with the horse-faced eagle-bodied monster, Chen Mu became more and more satisfied with the power of the five dragons combined.
"With the five dragon qi protecting me, if I encounter that big-eyed whale monster again, I will definitely give it a slap, and then..."
"Hmm... and then be swallowed by that guy?"
This is floating.
It's just five dragons merged into one, how can it be so bold?
It is unknown whether you can return to Feng'an City safely, and you are still thinking about provoking the whale monster?
Tsk!
Chen Mu raised his hand and touched his face hard.
"That Nine Cups Divination is also unreliable. I had a smooth journey in the past few days, but I didn't expect to run into that horse-faced eagle-bodied monster when I woke up this morning."
Chen Mu had a sullen face and stared at the Nine Cups Arithmetic on the gray wall.
According to his previous training experience, even if he spent the whole day calculating, he would only gain 50 to 60 points of experience.
Even if he raised his proficiency, the result was still uncertain. There was no way to give him an accurate result, which made Chen Mu feel uneasy.
"You still have to have a strong fist to do it."
He decided not to leave for the time being. With Thousand Lights City already there, he was not afraid of sleeping in the wilderness.
It just so happened that the Five Dragons Dharma Image had just swallowed a strange monster's wings, which could speed up the practice of the Five Dragons Sutra. Then practice the Five Dragons Merge into One and try to make it stronger. Even if I encounter a strange monster in the future, well... at least I can run faster.
……
Deciding to stay where he was for a few days, he immediately left Thousand Lights City and left the dilapidated mountain stream.
He didn't go far and found a place to stay about seven or eight miles upstream of the stream.
According to previous understanding, most strange monsters travel alone, and there will basically not be two strange monsters appearing in one place at the same time.
As long as you don't go too far and there is still some lingering aura of the strange monster, there is a high probability that no strange monster will appear, at least in the next few days.
After choosing a place, he went into Qiandeng City again and concentrated on practicing the Five Dragons Sutra.
Seven days later, early morning.
On a small rocky waterfall about three to five meters high, Chen Mu's figure appeared on a large gray stone.
After using the Dixiang method to make sure the environment within a radius of twenty miles was safe, Chen Mu casually gathered a handful of straw and began today's arithmetic.
After a moment, Chen Mu curled his lips and threw the knotted straw into the stream.
"Sixteen times out of a hundred calculations point to the southeast."
"Maybe Feng'an City is indeed in the southeast, but this road is not necessarily safe."
The incident of the horse-faced eagle-bodied monster five days ago was still fresh in his mind. He couldn't help but remain skeptical about the results of the Nine Cups Arithmetic.
"But we still have to go."
"If you keep hiding in Qiandeng City, you won't be able to return to the world of the living."
"It's a pity that I don't know the exact location of Feng'an City, otherwise I can build a human-shaped Ghost Gate and move it back directly, which is convenient and safe. What a pity..."
"If I had known earlier, I should have refined a piece of Nether Stone in Feng'an City." Chen Mu's face was full of regret.
The Netherworld Stone is part of the Ghost Gate and can be used to pull and locate the Ghost Gate at a long distance.
