Chapter 833: The Rising Power and Crushing Counter
Chapter 833: The Rising Power and Crushing Counter
Chen Chuan gazed forward, and standing there was a tall, slender man with long limbs and pale skin. His forehead and chin were elongated, and his hair was tied in loose braids at the back of his head.
This man had a delicate air about his limbs, and he wore a traditional bare-armed long robe of Besa Khanate. Golden earrings adorned his ears, and his hair was dyed white. On his back, he carried an enormous silver ring.
Judging by his appearance alone, he didn't seem like a pure Besa Khan native but rather a hybrid.
From the previous conversation between the two, it could be deduced that this man was likely Sai Bayar, the other fighter from Besa Khanate, and the one who favored Norland.
If this person had succeeded in his earlier attempt, this incident might have been portrayed as the Central City's United Daoshun fighter, Tamur, being killed by Chen Chuan. If this news were to spread internationally and further incited, the man before him could stand on the moral high ground and return to Balkutu, potentially altering the entire situation.
Furthermore, from the previous conversation, it seemed that he might also gain strength by killing Tamur. This made the situation even more unpredictable.
At this moment, Sai Bayar turned around, his eyes filled with apprehension as he looked at Chen Chuan.
He hadn't expected that, after clearly seeing Chen Chuan leave earlier, he would now return. He guessed that Chen Chuan might have already sensed his presence, a thought that startled him.
His expression became solemn, and he slowly retreated a few steps, seeking a position advantageous to himself. Naturally, a glow began to emerge from his body.
Just a moment ago, Chen Chuan and Tamur had determined the victor in an instant. The latter seemed to have been struck with no chance to fight back, and his strength wasn't too far off from Tamur's. In a normal fight, he wouldn't be a match either.
But there was still a chance.
The spiritual flame that Chen Chuan had unleashed earlier must have consumed a significant amount of his stamina. At this moment, his remaining stamina might not be as abundant, so he needed to stabilize himself and prolong the battle, avoiding a short and intense confrontation.
As he retreated, a large amount of smoke emerged from his body, enveloping him entirely. In the span of a breath, the smoke dissipated.
What appeared before them was a woman towering at six or seven meters tall. She had brown eagle feathers on her back, wolf legs covered in white fur, and the upper half of her body retained a human form. On both sides of her head, two faces had grown—one filled with anger, and the other with a gentle smile.
The silver ring, originally carried on her back, was now held in her hand, and a soft, ethereal green glow emanated from her entire body.
This alternate form was the legendary Vira Devi of Besa Khanate.
Chen Chuan wasn't surprised by this sight, as alternate forms themselves didn't have strict gender distinctions. The transformation was entirely dependent on one's own will, but it could also influence oneself in return. Thus, if one maintained the form of Vira Devi for an extended period, they might genuinely transform into a woman.
Of course, many fighters might not care about this, as they pursued higher levels of life transformation. The divine form, in the end, could even discard the physical body, and changing bodies was not an issue. Not to mention a simple transformation, as both the alternate and divine forms guarded the consciousness, not the external form. Only the human form truly preserved the original self.
At this moment, the left face of Sai Bayar emitted a unique sound.
On the right face, colorful smoke billowed out, slowly dispersing in the arena, but it also produced a crisp, crackling sound as it surged towards Chen Chuan.
Under the influence of the sound, Chen Chuan's white spiritual aura began to tremble, indicating a clear offensive intent. The smoke, too, seemed extraordinary.
Chen Chuan's gaze flickered, and he reached out to slap the cracked wall beside him. With a loud bang, countless shards of stone exploded, each one carrying spiritual flames, and they shot towards Sai Bayar.
Sai Bayar raised the silver ring to block, but to his surprise, the spiritual flames within the shards were highly concentrated and had immense penetrating power. Each collision weakened the spiritual energy on the surface, causing the silver ring to buzz loudly.
His heart sank, as he hadn't expected the spiritual energy to be so densely concentrated. This indicated that Chen Chuan hadn't exhausted himself, and he might still be capable of unleashing another concentrated spiritual flame attack. This realization made him dare not continue the battle of attrition, and even though he knew close combat might be disadvantageous, he had no choice but to rush forward. He needed to pressure Chen Chuan and prevent him from gathering strength.
The best option would be to retreat, but given Chen Chuan's displayed speed and throwing ability, escape seemed nearly impossible. So, he decided to take the offensive.
With a change in strategy, his actions became decisive. He performed a graceful spinning turn on the spot, harnessing the power of the silver ring in his hand. With a powerful throw, he sent the ring flying towards Chen Chuan!
Chen Chuan didn't dodge. With a wave of his hand, the ring was batted back with a loud bang. At that moment, Sai Bayar had already closed the distance and caught the rebounding ring, using the momentum to slam it down towards Chen Chuan.
Chen Chuan watched as the silver ring above him grew larger, its green glow pulsating like a massive fire wheel. He still didn't evade, instead kicking upwards!
With a boom, the spiritual power in his leg collided with the fire ring, and as he struck, a bright light flashed across his body.
This time, he directly employed the power of the Great Radiance Technique, and the Spiritual Flame on the silver ring seemed to melt away, rapidly dissipating. The subsequent force directly surged into the silver ring.
Sai Bayar's entire force was concentrated on the silver ring below, but the impact and point of contact he had predicted differed slightly from the actual situation. Chen Chuan's kick not only shattered the protection of the Spiritual Flame but also struck before Sai Bayar could fully exert his strength.
As the force transmitted through the silver ring to his body, it caused a slight hesitation in his movements, forcing him to instinctively adjust and resist.
Chen Chuan didn't stop there. After disrupting his attack rhythm with one kick, he leaped forward, elbowing upwards, and his entire body slammed into Sai Bayar's chest like a bullet.
The Spiritual Flame in Sai Bayar's abdomen rapidly dissipated under the elbow strike. Despite the Spiritual Flame on the surface of his body quickly gathering there to block the attack, the previous adjustment disrupted his combat rhythm, and he couldn't quite keep up. The incoming Spiritual Flame didn't dissipate as quickly, and eventually, a small amount of force penetrated, causing his massive body to be lifted by the powerful force.
Chen Chuan, taking advantage of the upward momentum, transformed his fists into afterimages, continuously striking at that spot. Each punch he threw wasn't particularly powerful, but the speed was incredibly fast, creating a series of thunderous booms. Sai Bayar's body trembled incessantly, and he kept rising.
Sai Bayar always felt like he could withstand the attacks. The pulsating Spiritual Flame continuously filled the gaps in his abdomen caused by the strikes, but each time it just started to recover, it would be swiftly shattered again, forcing him to repeatedly endure this process. Under the relentless attacks, he couldn't even pause.
This caused his life force to be continuously depleted by Chen Chuan's seemingly ordinary offense. As they approached the climax of their momentum, reaching the highest point, Chen Chuan bent his elbow, palm facing outward, and struck towards his throat, which had almost lost the protection of the Spiritual Flame. With a loud bang, Sai Bayar's neck was hit so hard that it bulged outward, and the remaining green light scattered outward.
At this moment, Chen Chuan, taking advantage of the last bit of momentum, soared above Sai Bayar. After a slight adjustment, he kicked downward with great force. Sai Bayar's massive body accelerated downward, instantly creating a large crater on the ground, with sand, lime, and dust swirling outward.
Chen Chuan allowed his body to fall freely, eventually landing steadily on the ground. He slowly walked forward.
Just as he was about to reach the edge of the crater, a huge shadow suddenly rose from the dust that had been blown away by the wind.
He looked up, his gaze calm.
After a while, the huge body emitted the sound of cracking bones, followed by strands of white-gold light shooting out from beneath his body.
Sai Bayar grunted and staggered forward a few steps, trying to grab Chen Chuan but failing. After a few futile attempts, he fell forward with a loud thud, hitting the ground. As misty energy emerged from beneath him, his body quickly returned to its original form.
The white-gold energy on Chen Chuan's body gradually subsided. This time, defeating Sai Bayar required less effort than his previous battle with Tamur because, aside from the initial Great Radiance Technique, the speed and strength of each subsequent attack were roughly equivalent to Sai Bayar's.
Initially, he was unaware of the strength of these Besa Khanate fighters. Naturally, he couldn't hold back at the beginning, but after gaining some understanding, he could employ less exhausting techniques. After all, although his body's stored energy wasn't lacking, there was no need to waste it.
At this moment, Sai Bayar, lying on the ground, let out a low, despondent laugh. His internal organs were severely damaged, but he hadn't lost consciousness yet.
"It's over. This time, Daxun wins again. No matter how hard we try, it seems difficult for our country to break free from Daxun's control."
Chen Chuan glanced at him, "I've heard of you. It's said that your position leans more towards the Norlanders. If you succeed, wouldn't it just be a change in the control of your country?"
