Chapter 866: Bright Light Purifying Filth
Chapter 866: Bright Light Purifying Filth
Bai Gu's eyebrows furrowed, and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes as if she was under intense mental stimulation. Silky strands of glaring white light emanated from her body, and behind her, several thin, tendril-like rays of light formed, swaying in the air for a moment before suddenly lashing forward.
In Chen Chuan's eyes, the tendrils of light were magnified, but the very next moment, his hand slapped the tentacle away, and the spiritual flame on his body scattered outward in a circle.
He stared at the glowing tendril, feeling his second self slightly dissipate, undoubtedly merging with some kind of power from the opponent.
"A Fusion Sect practitioner..."
Without waiting for the glowing tentacle to lash at him again, Chen Chuan took a step forward, stepping onto the lake surface. Just as the opponent had done earlier, he walked across the water towards the other side, his white-gold radiance reflecting on the lake surface, seemingly connecting with the white clouds soaring in the sky, each step drawing closer to the astonished onlookers.
"Young man, watch your tone," Bai Gu said at this moment. "Don't be too arrogant in your speech."
She pulled out a long hairpin from her bun, holding it in her hand as a weapon, causing her hair to fall loose. Simultaneously, she flicked her sleeves, causing the entire lake surface to ripple. Chen Chuan, standing on the rippling water, was lifted upwards.
However, he continued moving forward, even as the waves surged beneath his feet. His stride remained unwavering, and every splashing droplet became a step in his forward motion.
Bai Gu didn't remain stationary. Holding the long hairpin, she took a step forward, and her body merged with the hairpin, rushing towards Chen Chuan.
At the same time, multiple mental force projections, similar appearances to the previous ones, they swirled around each other, making it impossible to distinguish which was real and which was fake, or perhaps they were all real.
Chen Chuan didn't dodge, treading on the water's surface, he charged towards one of them. This time, he utilized the Heaven-Earth Furnace Breathing Technique, moving faster than before.
Raising his fist, the spiritual flame on his body surged, and the mental force streams approached, striking the radiant light, shattering upon impact. As the last stream of light attacked, a large wave rose beneath his feet, and in mid-air, he spun and punched downwards accurately!
Boom! This punch, from above, directly blasted Bai Gu into the water, and the impact created a towering splash, Chen Chuan, from above, calmly asked, "Is there a difference?"
The splash subsided, and the ripples gradually calmed, but the lake surface stirred, as if the water beneath had become turbulent, a white glow emerged from the depths, blinding.
Chen Chuan's gaze remained fixed on the figure below, a massive silhouette appeared, seemingly a woman formed entirely of light, with no discernible facial features, or perhaps none at all, only a vague outline.
Bai Gu's Divine Form allowed for multiple body changes, and without changing bodies, she could gain stronger power. This not only adapted the body to divine changes but also, with deep practice, allowed the body to become nourishment for ascension.
This required a sturdy foundation, without it, the path was destined to end prematurely. However, there was a way to compensate, by merging with external power, like utilizing and stealing power from the opponent, it was achievable.
This power fusion was a lengthy process, requiring constant suppression to prevent corruption, so she dared not release her power fully, but now, enraged, she unleashed her divine ability without reservation.
At this moment, in the woman's face, two radiant rays appeared, as if her eyes had suddenly opened.
With this, the giant woman surged from the depths, her long hairpin now a spear aimed at Chen Chuan.
Accompanying her was a powerful mental force, pressing down on Chen Chuan, attempting to restrain his surging spiritual flame, not binding him but influencing his actions.
Not only here, as the giant woman appeared, the mist above, from their battle, reflected her image, Bai Gu's mental force attached to the mist, forming an illusory body.
At the moment she launched her attack, the woman above silently descended, attacking Chen Chuan from behind without a sound.
Chen Chuan didn't turn to look back. Facing the pincer attack from above and below, he leaped upward, riding the surging waves below. In mid-air, he flipped, and the light on his body suddenly intensified, illuminating the entire lake with a golden-white radiance.
In that instant, the forces attacking from both directions struck him almost simultaneously. But the concentrated spiritual light seemed to collide with a thick, solid wall, creating sparks as the tip of the hairpin couldn't penetrate any further.
In that moment, he unleashed his horizontal strength!
After blocking this wave of attacks, his counterattack followed. His body, spinning with formidable power, transformed the horizontal strength into hard power. The spiritual light on his body gathered towards his elbows and beneath his feet. With a sideways flip, he struck out towards the two massive figures with a graceful posture.
A cracking sound, like something shattering, echoed as the two giant figures formed of condensed light cracked, then shattered into countless fragments in an instant. The fragments scattered in all directions, and the lake below was forcefully squeezed, sending waves crashing towards the shore.
Chen Chuan flipped horizontally in mid-air, using the recoil to land steadily on the shore. The dazzling light on his body dimmed.
After a while, the separated lake waters flowed back together, and the raindrops from the sky continued to fall. Even people in the distant military family zone could feel the drizzle on their faces.
The surging lake waters pushed Bai Gu's body, which had been lying on the lake bottom, to the surface, and then onto the shore. Her body was now half-broken, missing a hand and a foot, barely recognizable. Charred smoke rose from her body in wisps of white-gold.
Chen Chuan slowly approached her. The raindrops from above hadn't even touched him before they were evaporated by the light on his body, rising upwards along with the light.
For his final strike, he used the Great Ming Light Style, directly attacking her mind. Many of the Pure Sect's secret techniques target those existences, making them more effective against external impurities and powers.
Under his strike, the powers of those existences fused within Bai Gu were almost completely shattered. Since this was a violent removal, it caused significant damage to her, leaving her barely alive. Only a martial artist's tenacious vitality kept her from dying.
Of course, this wasn't Chen Chuan's intention. His comrade had only asked him to hold her back, not to kill her. Doing so would cause many problems.
Looking at Bai Gu, he said, "Senior, you said you only care about the present, and it seems that integrating the power of certain existences has made you stronger. Have you been staying in the Central City all these years, without much actual combat experience? Without tempering and fighting, how can you compete with us? How can you understand what we pursue?"
Bai Gu, lying there, weakly replied, "Young man, you've defeated me, but have you defeated them?" The "them" in her words seemed to refer to those existences, but it also seemed to point towards certain forces and groups.
