Chapter 815: Fist, Hammer, and the Divine Incarnation's Outline
As the radiance enveloped the area, Chen Chuan instantly sensed a resemblance to the power he had encountered before at the Great Enlightenment Realm.
The radiance shrouded the Spiritual Flame, causing significant interference to mental strength, making it impossible to pinpoint the exact location of Moon Howl Monastery.
Although he wasn't as formidable in direct combat, he skillfully used this method to conceal his weakness.
However, Chen Chuan knew that this situation couldn't be maintained indefinitely. During this time, his opponent would surely seize the opportunity to act.
Finding a breakthrough here was unlikely, as the opponent had already tested both long-range and close-quarters combat. Therefore, his first instinct was to rush towards Hu Kan, just as he had done earlier.
Moon Howl Monastery indeed had this intention. Chen Chuan possessed the Embrace Unity Force, and with his superior strength and speed, he was a significant constraint. On the other hand, Hu Kan presented a vulnerable target.
Previously, Moon Howl Monastery's use of the Echo Blade was to stall Chen Chuan. Many of a fighter's moves required corresponding speed and strength. Even a slight influence or a moment's delay could drastically alter the situation.
When the radiance appeared, Moon Howl Monastery immediately took action, ensuring he was a step ahead. Utilizing the cover of the radiance, he instantly appeared on Hu Kan's side and silently slashed towards him again.
Hu Kan seemed affected by the radiance, unaware of the external situation. He failed to dodge and was struck by the long blade infused with the Spiritual Flame.
However, after piercing the Spiritual Flame, the blade that should have cleaved through his sturdy body failed to have any effect. Instead, it emitted a clear 'ding' sound, as if striking an extremely hard refined steel object.
The secret technique, "Golden Armor Body," concentrated the Spiritual Flame within, creating a tactical deception. But if this secret technique wasn't practiced to perfection, it significantly hindered one's movements. Focusing on defense left no room for offense, making it very passive in combat. One could strike once, and they could strike again. Therefore, he usually didn't use it.
But now, things were different. He had teammates! If Moon Howl Monastery attacked him, there would be noise, and that would be Chen Chuan's opportunity to strike.
Indeed, at that moment, an intense air pressure struck his side, causing him to stifle a breath. Then, right in front of him, a booming sound erupted, followed by the radiance that had obscured his vision instantly dissipating.
Simultaneously, his spirit sensed the presence of Moon Howl Monastery. Sensing the opportunity, he relied solely on his instincts and turned, hurling a large hammer in a specific direction!
When Moon Howl Monastery's blade failed to land a hit, he knew something was wrong. He immediately employed the "Embrace Thought Body," one of the three body techniques of the Radiant Sun Pavilion, causing his body to curl up into a ball.
Almost simultaneously with this action, a fist struck his body, causing the Spiritual Flame to flicker and nearly extinguish. However, he managed to deflect some of the force with the secret technique, and with that force, he flew backward.
At that moment, a hammer, shimmering with radiance, flew diagonally and slammed into his shoulder, shattering the last remnants of the Spiritual Flame on his body.
Chen Chuan had caught up, and it seemed as if he and Hu Kan had coordinated their moves. As a gap appeared in his opponent's defense, Chen Chuan seized the moment and delivered a punch!
With a boom, the head of this body was shattered by the punch. Under the impact of the Spiritual Flame, the entire shell instantly tore apart, and the remnants exploded in all directions.
Chen Chuan's eyes flickered, and this time, he clearly sensed that Moon Howl Monastery had escaped first. He had only struck an empty shell, and after the punch, he didn't stop. With a light tap of his toes, he charged towards a specific location.
He deduced that Moon Howl Monastery was heading towards the other body that had moved earlier and was subsequently attacked by him.
The power of the Divine Incarnation lay in its ability to continuously fight as long as it found a suitable host body and didn't exhaust its spiritual power. It was incredibly tenacious. However, each time it detached and reattached, it incurred a massive expenditure of energy. Chen Chuan had to seize the opportunity to quickly destroy this body.
In an instant, he traversed a hundred meters, and with a concentrated Spiritual Flame, he delivered a kick that exploded against the waist of the towering silhouette, creating a massive gash with only a few remaining connections.
Hu Kan, having made the same judgment, simultaneously leaped and gripped the remaining hammer with both hands. He swung it downward towards the head, shouting, "Die!"
A muffled sound echoed as the hammer struck, causing the head to instantly cave in and sink into the chest.
Under their combined assault, the body was almost instantly destroyed, and from within, a semi-transparent figure holding a blade emerged and slashed towards Hu Kan for the third time.
Moon Howl Monastery's spiritual power had been significantly weakened after his successive body destructions. Even if he could find another suitable body, he wouldn't have the opportunity to rally for another battle. So, he abandoned that idea and resorted to a desperate countermeasure.
Su Wei witnessed this scene, and a glint flashed in his eyes as he executed a Mind Shaking Hammer technique.
This White Enlightenment Realm technique was something he had learned during his third Vow Limit, but that didn't mean he couldn't use it now. His spiritual power was as formidable as his physical strength, and the hammer strike seemed to hit the ethereal outline like a real hammer, smashing into the illusory figure.
When Hu Kan first saw the illusory figure of Moon Howl Monastery rushing towards him, he had already thrown out his double hammers and couldn't retract them in time. So, he quickly gathered the remaining Spiritual Flame for defense, but as he wasn't sure about the specifics of the attack, he mentally prepared for the worst.
In his line of sight, the transparent figure with the sword easily pierced through the outermost biodynamic field and approached his forehead with the tip of the blade. This caused Hu Kan to squint involuntarily.
Suddenly, the figure seemed to be struck by something, and ripples like water waves appeared on its body, causing a significant distortion. Especially the face that had resembled Moon Howl Monastery's twisted, and transparent aura mist drifted outward.
At that moment, Hu Kan seemed to hear an angry roar of frustration, but the transparent figure remained determined and continued moving towards him, slashing its blade into Hu Kan's body.
However, this strike couldn't break through the thin layer of Spiritual Flame surrounding Hu Kan. Instead, it gradually melted away as it approached, and when it finally rushed forward, the entire figure collided with Hu Kan. Surprisingly, the opponent didn't deliver the imagined impact, but rather, it felt like a strong gust of wind brushing past, causing Hu Kan's loose hair to flutter.
A moment later, Hu Kan fell to the ground with a loud thud, kicking up a cloud of ashy dust that swirled around under the influence of the biodynamic field.
Only then did the shattered remains of the first body that Chen Chuan had struck fall to the ground behind them. The tall, broken body beside them swayed and weakly fell forward, crashing to the ground with a loud rumble, causing a cloud of dust to rise, obscuring their vision.
Hu Kan took a few breaths, looked at the vague silhouette of Chen Chuan through the dust, and gave him a thumbs-up, saying, "You're the man, little brother! I'm impressed, Chen!"
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "It's all thanks to your excellent cooperation, Hu. If you weren't holding them off, I wouldn't have been able to hit him so easily."
He didn't humble himself, as the Mind Shaking Hammer technique wasn't particularly skillful. If it weren't for his accurate prediction of Moon Howl Monastery's move, it would have been difficult to land the strike. And it was mostly Hu Kan who had drawn the opponent's full attention.
Hu Kan was also a bit puzzled. The one who had been beheaded earlier was him, not Moon Howl Monastery. He felt wronged! Why was Moon Howl Monastery so determined to fight to the death here, as if they had a deep grudge against him?
Chen Chuan discerned that there were no spiritual remnants nearby, indicating that Moon Howl Monastery had indeed been defeated.
If one's Divine Incarnation was well-trained, it would be challenging to defeat them. Even if they lost, with sufficient preparation, they could find an opportunity to escape and try again later.
In the old era, it was easier to explain, as those who cultivated Divine Incarnation were rare. Not only was this path difficult to practice, but finding a suitable host body was also challenging. However, things were different now. Mr. Zhuang had mentioned that suitable bodies could be provided for those walking this path, which had increased the number of practitioners.
For instance, the Fusion Sect likely had many fighters skilled in this technique.
Therefore, upon returning to the Great Prosperity, he would have to intensify his training. This set of boxing techniques not only tempered one's spiritual power but could also be used to attack the spirit in direct combat.
Hu Kan had already adjusted himself and walked to the other side to pick up his hammer. "Little brother Chen, let's get out of here. Who knows who might be waiting for us outside."
Chen Chuan agreed and went to the area with the mangled bodies, retrieving the horse-cleaving saber and shaking it with his wrist to dislodge the remaining fragments. He then carried it behind him.
Hu Kan slung the hammer over his shoulder and gazed at the remaining tall figures on the earthen wall, feeling a sense of emotion. "An Yao Pavilion's successor is indeed quite capable. If Moon Howl Monastery had even a fraction of Master Hongfa's abilities, today's fight wouldn't have been so easy."
Chen Chuan had heard many rumors about Master Hongfa at Single Stream Pavilion. He looked at the radiant sky behind the earthen wall and said, "Speaking of Master Hongfa, I heard he went deep into the rift alone."
Hu Kan replied, "Who knows? Maybe he wanted to preach to the beings on the other side?"
Chen Chuan gazed at the radiant sky and said, "If one has enough strength, it's not impossible. Let's go back, Hu."
