Chapter 905: The Gathering of the Remnants
Chapter 905: The Gathering of the Remnants
In a lush forest not far from the beach, the Tuner's original body was hidden here, leaning against a large tree. Suddenly, he took a deep breath and sat up straight.
This body was his original form, so a portion of his spiritual power was inseparable from it. After all, he had not yet cultivated to the realm of "Severing the Body and Shedding the Shell" in the Divine Aspect.
However, now that his Divine Aspect had been shattered, he had suffered a severe blow. This remaining trace of spiritual power was incredibly feeble, barely enough to maintain his existence, with no combat power to speak of. If he turned around and left now, there might still be a chance to escape.
Perhaps, after returning, he could rely on some secret medicines and nutritional supplements to barely restore some of his combat power. After all, this body was still that of a true martial artist.
But he did not choose to do so.
After sitting up straight, he used a Reverse Harmony Technique, and his originally plump body quickly withered, becoming emaciated in no time, like a dried corpse.
For a Divine Aspect Fighter, spiritual power was the most fundamental. So, after quickly absorbing all the nutrition and energy from this body, he could make up for some of the deficiencies in his Divine Aspect. Of course, only this body, which he had cultivated along the way, could do such a thing, as they were essentially one and the same.
However, after this severe setback, his strength would never be able to return to its previous state. He could only say that he had slightly recovered some combat ability.
In no time, the entire body completely decayed, and then a vague, flickering shadow emerged from above, with a faint spiritual light flickering on its surface.
A Divine Aspect Fighter could still fight without a physical body, but if the realm was not sufficient, there would be little threat. He did not know the specific details of the previous battle, but the fact that his Divine Aspect was shattered in a short time indicated that the opponent was powerful and had means to restrain him. Going back there would only be asking for trouble.
Fortunately, he had prepared in advance, and this vague shadow entered a box he carried with him.
After a while, the box suddenly shattered, and a ferocious creature, resembling a wolf and a fox with silver-white fur, emerged from within. This was a Silver Weasel from the Fusion Land, a backup body that the Tuner had prepared beforehand.
A Divine Aspect's body did not necessarily need to be human-shaped; various biological bodies could be attached.
However, each attachment during combat consumed a large amount of energy, so preparation was necessary. The original owner of this body had already reached the brink of metamorphosis and had undergone numerous implants for enhancement. After years of tuning and repeated adjustments by the Tuner, their compatibility was extremely high, and such issues were virtually non-existent.
The Silver Weasel's speed was incredibly fast, and its teeth and claws were sharp, with a resilient body. Now, after merging with the Divine Aspect, its fur trembled, and a spiritual light blossomed from its body. With a flash of silver light, it rushed towards the battlefield ahead.
On the beach, Noce quickly hid his body within the air after being knocked down by the Moon Rhinoceros. Originally, they had participated in the siege as a group of three, but in a short time, only he was left, which made him feel uneasy.
Two arm blades popped out from his forearms, and the spiritual flame within his body gathered, ready to strike. The other four stood there, alert, with spiritual flames burning within their bodies. He lowered his head, trying to avoid looking directly at Chen Chuan to minimize his presence.
Fortunately, the Tuner and Chen Chuan did not follow the same path. The Shadow Panther's active conscious body was naturally inclined towards hiding and exploiting weaknesses, so Chen Chuan utilized it very well.
At this moment, his spiritual flame was fully gathered, concealing all traces of his existence. He moved silently to a more distant location.
He was already considering his retreat. This time, it was clear that the intelligence information had been flawed. The target's strength far exceeded expectations, and even if they failed, it would not be their fault. There would still be a case to make when they returned.
The Divine Aspect's movement was swift, but the speed the opponent had displayed earlier had startled him. Moreover, the opponent had a means to reveal the Divine Aspect, so he felt that if he made a commotion during his escape, he might be discovered and pursued.
Chen Chuan stood on the beach, his expression relaxed. He knew there was one more Divine Aspect Fighter, who was probably hiding and doing it well. However, unless this person had already escaped beyond his line of sight, there would be no trace of him.
At this moment, he carefully sensed the surrounding situation. The Great Ming Light Style not only enhanced his combat power but also significantly boosted his spiritual power.
Hiding for a while was possible, but the environment around him was constantly changing. He had been here for many days and was very familiar with the surroundings, so he could perceive any slight disharmony.
After a while, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed at a certain spot, from which a light burst forth in all directions.
Noce immediately sensed something amiss and tried to retreat while maintaining his concealment. However, his efforts were in vain, as his speed couldn't match the spreading light, and the edge of his foot was exposed.
He quickly realized the danger, and his arms split apart, releasing two streams of spiritual light towards Chen Chuan.
At that moment, the spiritual impact failed to shake the opponent, but he hadn't exerted his full strength either. Chen Chuan believed that as long with a slightly higher degree of concentration, even if he couldn't break through that outer layer of defense, he could still cause the opponent to hesitate for a moment.
At this moment, his divine aspect quickly detached itself from his body and moved away rapidly. As long as he could distance himself before the opponent caught up, his chances of escape would greatly increase.
However, just as he began to separate, a radiant light suddenly shone, revealing the formless and shadowless divine aspect, which seemed to be restricted by some force, slowing its movement.
This was a critical situation. Without a doubt, he knew that the two spiritual impacts hadn't hindered the opponent at all. When the opponent caught up, he would face the same fate as the tuner.
In this moment of crisis, Chen Chuan didn't wait for Noche's attack. He used the Mokati Separation Technique from the Samawa Wajia Continent, tearing his divine aspect apart. Most of it remained in place, allowing the powerful incoming punch to strike it. Meanwhile, a portion of his divine aspect, with extreme speed, entered the body of the Moon Rhino, who was not far away.
Although the Moon Rhino had lost consciousness and suffered severe injuries, his resilient martial artist's life force kept him from dying on the spot, making it convenient for Chen Chuan to hide within him.
Even so, the Moon Rhino's remaining consciousness resisted slightly, and with Chen Chuan's weakened divine aspect, it was not easy to merge smoothly. Fortunately, at this moment, he sent a secret signal through spiritual intent, preventing the Moon Rhino's consciousness from rejecting him.
This was a tactic they had agreed upon beforehand. A fighter's divine aspect could enhance the power of another fighter through symbiosis or attachment, as long as there was absolute trust between them.
By working together, they could complement each other's weaknesses and achieve strength beyond what they could accomplish individually. Moreover, the Moon Rhino was from the Fusion Sect, skilled in integrating various external powers.
This was their last resort, as both had reservations about such a fusion. But now, facing death, they had no other choice.
After Chen Chuan's punch dispersed most of Noche's divine aspect, he turned to look behind him. The body that had been lying in the seawater was gone, and in its place, a thick fog emerged from the water.
The Moon Rhino General was known for guarding the Moon River and had the ability to control water and fog. After receiving Noche's spiritual stimulation, the Moon Rhino regained some consciousness and immediately used his biological field to gather the seawater around him, creating a thick mist.
The book "1619" by the author "1619" was a mistake-free version!
As the tide retreated, he quickly followed it into the sea, feeling more at ease in the water than on land.
As he descended, Noche, disregarding his own consumption, used his stealth skills to help conceal their movements.
However, these actions had limited effect. With such a large body in the water, even as it retreated with the tide, it was impossible to completely hide their presence.
Chen Chuan didn't need to know their exact location; a general idea was sufficient. He turned towards a spot on the beach, and a ball of light appeared in his hand.
At that moment, a silver light emerged from the air and rushed towards his back. He slapped it away, and a flash of light exploded, creating a torrent on the beach. The seawater and sand in its path were swept away, and a silver weasel's half-body fell to the ground with a loud slap.
He glanced at it for a moment, and then he heard heavy footsteps approaching from behind. He turned to look.
Within the thick fog, a tall figure emerged, gradually revealing itself as the mist cleared.
The Moon Rhino's body stretched taller, and the horn on his head had grown longer. The holes in his body had healed, and his mutated armor was more complete. He now held the long-handled melon hammer in one hand, resembling the traditional image of the Moon Rhino General.
The spiritual flame on his body was extraordinary, divided into three colors that constantly shifted and changed.
The tuner's last strand of divine aspect had also entered the Moon Rhino's body just before the attack on Chen Chuan. Now, the power of the three had converged.
If both divine aspects were complete, the Moon Rhino would not have been able to withstand it. But with both being weakened, a situation of one strong and two weak was formed, barely maintaining stability.
Chen Chuan slowly reached out and pulled the sword embedded in the distant ground into his hand. Now, let's see how strong this thing is.
