Chapter 1156: Breaking the Walls and Sweeping Away the Outsider
Chapter 1156: Breaking the Walls and Sweeping Away the Outsider
As the two great techniques unfolded, Chen Chuan was enveloped in a radiant glow, and his subsequent attack naturally carried even greater power.
The secret techniques of the Purity Sect were extremely effective against the opponent, often producing remarkable results with just a single move.
However, this time, the Wanderer was no ordinary adversary. Despite the fierce assault, he did not retreat even an inch.
Whether it was the force Field of the Great Azure Sky Style or the piercing light of the Great Bright Light Technique, he absorbed them all without any visible effects.
Chen Chuan, however, could see clearly that the opponent used some mysterious means to distribute the attacks to the surrounding Crystal Mist and the fragments of his body that had exploded.
Although these fragments appeared to have separated from him, they were still part of his body. The clever part was that by dispersing them, he not only shed the excess, enhancing his combat effectiveness, but also had the seemingly useless parts absorb the external attacks.
In the midst of attack and defense, nothing was more invigorating than witnessing the opponent's brilliant responses and counter-moves.
At this moment, he exhaled slightly, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light, and his fists and palms emitted a series of clear light rays.
Purifying Spirit Light!
Previously, due to the short duration of his practice, he found it difficult to use the Purifying Spirit Light in evenly matched battles, and even when he could, he had to build up momentum. For example, during his battle with the Dongxuan Temple Gou Dou Jia, he struggled to control it.
However, with sufficient resources for cultivation, his Mutated Tissue had undergone significant transformation, and his mastery of this secret technique had improved.
When the Wanderer was defending against the power of the two great techniques, the scattered Crystal Mist and tissue fragments would gradually disappear after absorbing the attacks. However, the appearance of the Purifying Spirit Light added fuel to the fire, igniting them with a burst of multicolored light before slowly dissipating.
Under Chen Chuan's subsequent fierce attacks, these fragments dissolved faster and faster, the multicolored light flickering continuously, illuminating the entire night Sky with a magnificent and dazzling display.
As they rapidly moved and clashed, the trails of Spirituality light left in the Sky lingered, creating a breathtaking spectacle.
At the same time, the rumbling sounds of the air being torn apart echoed, resembling clusters of spectacular fireworks exploding in the Sky.
Despite the breathtaking scene, the people around had no time to admire it. The airship above the Sealed Hall was pushed back by the shockwaves from their battle.
The Ritual experts were nearly exhausted. The support implants allowed the people delivering supplies to work continuously for an entire day without rest, and even if they couldn't, there were teams to rotate.
However, there were only so many technical personnel available, and even though the time was short, the mental and physical strain was immense under the condition of ensuring no mistakes.
It wasn't just them; Mr. Weiss was also affected. The Corrosive Field emitted by the Crystal Mist had intensified, and if he wanted to preserve his Bodies, he had to keep his distance.
Inside the temporary hotel, Kappa stood by the window, watching with great interest. The Ritual suppressing the Sealed Hall was repeatedly torn apart by the two combatants' clashes.
Whenever this happened, strands of Mutated Tissue took advantage of the loosened Ritual, transferring from the body he had left inside the Ritual to his own.
Simply allowing the Mutated Tissue to disperse on its own was insufficient, as controlling every piece required more Mental Power. Currently, most of his Mental Power was being restrained by the Relic, so this method of transfer was the most cost-effective and discreet.
As the strands reached his body, he gradually grew stronger, and his strength slowly recovered.
This was his plan. When Cavinton and the other entity tried to break out, they would inevitably conflict with Central City. At their level of combat, the Ritual would inevitably develop gaps and cracks, making it easier for him to transfer his power.
Initially, if he had joined the others in breaking out, he might not have been able to escape, but his chances would have been much higher.
However, using brute force was not his style, and he did not trust the other two. He preferred to exploit the situation and the gaps to find an opportunity to escape, enjoying the process.
According to his most optimistic estimate, transferring more than one-fifth of the Mutated Tissue would already be a good result. But with Chen Chuan joining the battle, the intensity of the clash had escalated, exceeding his expectations.
However, completely transferring all the Mutated Tissue was unlikely, and even if he succeeded, he might not be able to escape.
He realized that the artifact within him, besides suppressing his mind, might also indicate his location. If a certain Ritual were performed, it could track him down. This wasn't an unsolvable problem; certain things could conceal his whereabouts.
Fortunately, he had learned this information from conversations with visitors in the past, and such items could be found in the Ancient Museum.
He gently set down the glass he had drained, taking advantage of the intense battle overhead to make his way there.
Thanks to Cavinton's recent use of Aberrant Power to absorb energy, the guests and security personnel here were almost all gaunt and dazed, like zombies, even if they hadn't died on the spot. The once-secure defenses were now virtually non-existent.
Although reinforcements were being dispatched, they wouldn't arrive quickly enough.
Before leaving, he took a moment to tidy his hair and clothes. Then, he exited the inn.
Boom!
Another intense flash of light exploded in the sky. He looked up and saw one figure being hurled far away, followed closely by another.
He smiled slightly and elegantly bowed in the direction of where Chen Chuan was.
When Chen Chuan defeated Cavinton, the Great Bright Light Technique and the Great Azure Sky Style had enveloped him as well. Although he had hidden his presence using a field, there was a small gap that Chen Chuan couldn't have missed. Yet, instead of dealing with him first, Chen Chuan went after the other entity.
Regardless of whether this was intentional or not, he felt indebted. His pride wouldn't allow him to ignore what had happened. After bowing, he gracefully headed toward the Ancient Museum.
In the sky above Central City, the two figures continued their battle. Chen Chuan was gradually getting into the zone, and the resilience and combat skills of his opponent allowed him to fully unleash his own strength.
Each punch and kick carried more power, and his speed increased. After delivering another punch, the Wanderer seemed unable to withstand the force and was thrown far away, crashing out of the Ritual's range with a thunderous boom.
A massive tear appeared in the sky.
This commotion caused the Sealed Hall, the Ancient Museum, and the surrounding Rituals to experience a violent tremor.
The Administrators were startled by the large gap in the Ritual and quickly instructed Alura to stabilize it, to prevent the trapped creatures from escaping.
Someone also ordered, "Tell Mr. Weiss and Mr. Rossard to ignore the battle and help stabilize the Ritual, suppressing any Prisoners that escape from the other Sealed Halls!"
This was a necessary measure. For some reason, the Crimson Skull's dispatched mercenary squad hadn't retrieved the item, causing the resonance to continue. More and more Prisoners were breaking free from the Ritual.
Alura then said, "The two gentlemen have agreed to cooperate."
The Administrators breathed a sigh of relief. Then they saw Chen Chuan and the Wanderer fly out of Central City. Considering the Wanderer's unique nature, they felt a sense of unease and uncertainty. Someone asked instinctively, "Should we pursue them?"
Len looked at the long screen, where the outline of Vijiazia Central City and the western horizon were clearly visible. Seeing the two streaks of light vanish into the distance, he shook his head and said, "We can't catch up."
Pausing, he added, "No one can."
Then he said, "But we can at least count on Mr. Chen. Given his demonstrated strength, he should be able to stop the Wanderer."
On the other side, Chen Chuan had broken out of the Ritual and caught up. Once the Wanderer was outside the Ritual's range, faint cracks of light began to appear around it, as if it was about to tear open a Rift.
His eyes flickered, realizing that without the suppression of the field and the Ritual, if the Wanderer were allowed to proceed, it might truly connect to the other world.
He couldn't let that happen. He followed the Wanderer's path, expanding the two great styles outward, erasing any attempts to open the Rift.
Thus, as they flew, faint cracks of Rifts appeared and were immediately shattered by the following light.
Moments later, they flew over Qiyuan Lake outside the city. Under the night sky, the calm, clear lake reflected the flickering light trails. A powerful air current then swept across, causing the lake to ripple and shatter, transforming into countless colorful, beautiful fragments.
Chen Chuan focused on the figure ahead. Once outside, he no longer felt the mental suppression or the gaze of others. Now, he could use more of his abilities.
With a thought, a faint purple glow flashed through his Mutated Tissue, and his speed dramatically increased. In an instant, he reached the side of the Wanderer and punched toward its head.
