Chapter 609 - 518: The Situation Begins to Reverse
Chapter 609: Chapter 518: The Situation Begins to Reverse
BOOM!!!
Two fists enveloped in completely different forces clashed fiercely in midair!
On the surface of Jeming’s fist, the pale golden light from the Body Refining Technique intertwined violently with the invisible reverberations of the Fictional Law, obliterating each other, and exploding with a thunderous roar!
Pure physical strength and the erosion of laws confronted head-on, the scattered power transforming into visible ring-shaped shock waves, stripping another thick layer from the already battered layers of the ground below, grinding it to dust!
The Black Robed Wizard, seemingly to conserve energy, no longer flickered with "teleportation" but instead adopted an eerie footwork that seemed to skip parts of the acceleration process, pressing in close like a phantom!
His every attack was concise and to the extreme!
And each strike carried a sense of "inevitable conclusion."
Often, the moment a move was made, its "impact" or "some effect" was partially evident, making defense extremely difficult!
Jeming’s pupils contracted sharply, activating the Void Step with full force!
His form, like a golden arc, weaved through impossibly evasive and blocking maneuvers within inches.
His fists and feet were equally heavy, each strike containing the terrifying physical strength forged by the Body Refining Technique and the overwhelming Spiritual Power of a Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator.
In another moment of fists and palms meeting...
A tightly compressed Fire Extinction Divine Light erupted at the point of contact, and the dark golden light shattered with a resounding explosion.
The Black Robed Wizard frowned slightly; although he had set the result to "complete defense," his clothing was still scorched with a blackened trace.
Jeming’s eyes lit up.
His combat instincts soared at the edge of death, and his blood-drenched eyes immediately caught this detail.
This was the flaw!
As long as he attacked frequently enough, forcing the opponent to quickly exhaust their energy allowance within a unit of time, effective damage could be inflicted!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
But before he could revel in this, a succession of bone-cracking sounds rang in his ears, sending a chill down his spine!
This exchange caused one of Jeming’s arms to explode in sequence.
From the finger bones to the wrist, forearm to shoulder, every bone shattered completely.
Flesh transformed into a mist of blood filling the air!
Only a few white bone stubs remained, barely held together by connective tissue.
But in the next instant, the broken bones in this arm spontaneously healed, and flesh and skin rapidly covered over with visible speed.
The Black Robed Wizard paused for a moment, then surged forward again.
Seeing the hand approaching once more, Jeming raised his other arm without hesitation to block.
As he blocked, Jeming twisted his elbow half a second in advance, shifting the point of impact from the fragile joint to the sturdier forearm.
Crack!
This time, only the ulna of his forearm fractured!
The pale golden regenerative light surged up almost simultaneously with the fracture, with a speed half a beat faster than before!
The Black Robed Wizard’s onslaught remained as dense as a storm, but the feeling of impending destruction in Jeming’s movements was quickly fading, replaced by an extreme resilience!
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
Incessant explosions thundered over the gray and white wilderness!
The dark golden light, the invisible ripples of laws, and the shockwaves from pure force colliding transformed this area into a dead zone ravaged by energy!
The ground sunk down, shattered, and melted with a wail, while the sky was painted with bizarre colors by the chaotic energy currents!
From afar, it resembled an apocalyptic scene!
Jeming realized that this Black Robed Wizard was also a top master of close martial combat!
His moves were incomparably exquisite, his force unpredictable, and his control over his body reached astonishing levels.
Combined with the unavoidable effects of Fabrication, every strike was rife with threat, more than capable of being lethal!
"As expected..." Jeming understood in his heart.
As a law that can "skip processes and reach a conclusion," the power of Fabrication was indeed most suited for two extreme combat methods: one being long-range, large area "result definition," such as directly causing an area to collapse, or obliterating a target group.
The second is this immediate close-quarters kill!
The Fictional Law can achieve the complex result of "the attack hitting and causing maximum damage" with utmost efficiency!
With each clash, Jeming’s arms, legs, even shoulders, and ribs, under the immense force and erosion of the Fabrication effect, would see his bones fracture and his flesh disintegrate!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The sound of cracking bones was incessant!
The intense pain surged through his every nerve like a tidal wave, almost drowning his consciousness!
But...
The Body Refining Technique’s adaptive evolution showed its terrifying power at this moment!
The shattered flesh hadn’t completely scattered, the broken bones hadn’t fully separated, before a tremendous life energy surged in wildly!
Flesh wriggling and intertwining like living things!
Bones mending and reshaping with visible speed!
In the blink of an eye, a severe injury sufficient to incapacitate an ordinary Fifth Level Wizard was restored to its original state!
The newly formed tissues seemed even more compact at the microscopic level, further enhancing their resistance to the power of "Fabrication!"
This allowed Jeming to fight fiercely against the Black Robed Wizard like an indefatigable, ever-strengthening combat machine, engaging in a brutal exchange of blows!
Limb regeneration, bone restoration, flesh reforming...
However, as the battle continued, Jeming’s initial excitement gradually cooled, and his brow furrowed slightly.
Although he managed to regain the upper hand, he now faced a new bottleneck.
The evolution of the Body Refining Technique primarily enhanced his survival and endurance abilities.
His fist could barely withstand the opponent’s attacks without being completely obliterated, yet his own attacks, whether a powerful physical strike or a close-range burst of Fire Divine Light or spatial tearing, had minimal effect on the Black Robed Wizard!
It was evident that, realizing he couldn’t swiftly break down Jeming with the power of "Fabrication" in the short term, the Black Robed Wizard quickly adjusted his strategy.
He prioritized allocating more of his available "quota" to the defensive front!
Jeming’s fist, filled with Spiritual Power, struck the opponent’s chest, but the force was absorbed entirely by an invisible barrier, like a clay ox entering the sea!
A blast of Fire Divine Light, unleashed right in front of the opponent, vanished silently before reaching his skin!
With the "quota" shifted towards defense, the weaknesses Jeming previously discovered swiftly vanished, as if the Black Robed Wizard had donned a conceptual "absolute defense armor!"
Although his attack frequency and immediate threat decreased, it left him in a nearly invincible position!
"Tsk... troublesome," Jeming thought in annoyance.
He could endure, fight, and recover...
But he just couldn’t break through the defense!
Meanwhile, as the Black Robed Wizard calmly parried Jeming’s storm-like and varied attacks, a sense of bewilderment and confusion grew wildly in his mind like weeds!
This little wizard before him had too many unreasonable attributes!
The defensive, offensive witchcraft, summons, and bizarre movement methods beyond his current level were one thing...
His abnormal physique, capable of withstanding Fabrication’s corrosive power without perishing, was another...
What baffled him the most was Jeming’s seemingly endless stamina and recovery resources!
They had been engaged in this high-intensity melee, each blow capable of shattering mountains and cracking the earth, for almost ten minutes now!
To mortals, ten minutes is brief.
But to wizards, whose nerve reaction speed increases exponentially with their level, every second felt elongated, enabling dozens or even hundreds of tactical decisions, energy maneuvers, and technique changes!
From the moment they encountered each other, through various probes, long-distance attacks, deceptive defenses, and limb breaking, evolution...
It only took a dozen seconds for Jeming to resist a strike from the Black Robed Wizard using the adaptive evolution of the Body Refining Technique.
Yet after that, they fought for another ten minutes.
One can only imagine the intensity of their confrontation during this "long" ten minutes!
The Black Robed Wizard could hardly recall how many times he shattered Jeming’s body.
Arms, legs, chest, even his head were deformed and broken under his fists!
Yet each time, Jeming restored himself in the blink of an eye, once again pouncing with vitality!
"How much biomass and energy does this guy have in reserve?!" the Black Robed Wizard couldn’t help but roar in his mind.
Long ago, he had already employed the traits of the Fabrication Law to "define" and destroy all of Jeming’s spatial storage equipment he could perceive during combat.
Logically, when a wizard loses their storage equipment, it’s as if their supply line is cut!
But what about Jeming?
Where did the biomass and energy for his regeneration come from?!
Could he possibly contain an Elemental Pool and biomass synthesis factory within him?!
How could this be something a Fifth Level Wizard could achieve?!
What frightened him even more was that even he himself had almost depleted a large portion of the various High Tier Energy Crystals, quick Recovery Potions, and backup Witchcraft Artifact materials stored in his spatial storage in this high-intensity ten-minute offense and defense!
Maintaining frequent use of the Fabrication Law, especially allocating a large quota for defense, overwhelmingly consumed Spiritual Power and specific resources!
Turning to Jeming...
Except for his face, which had turned pale from pain and expenditure, his breathing grew steadier, and his gaze sharper!
Occasionally, during counterattacks, his force and energy intensity even seemed to trend upwards!
"He’s actually growing more spirited as he fights? What kind of monster is this?!"
The Black Robed Wizard felt a sense of absurdity and a vague unease.
On Jeming’s side, he indeed felt in good condition.
The energy transmission from his Inner Grotto Heaven and Incense Fire Divine Dao remained steady and efficient, providing an endless flow of Spiritual Qi.
In the sustained high-pressure confrontation, the Body Refining Technique’s evolution speed seemed to be accelerating!
From initially having to sacrifice his whole arm to withstand a strike, he now often only needed to take damage from the forearm to the hand to deflect attacks.
Their offense and defense shifted from Jeming taking blows one-sidedly to a back-and-forth exchange!
He could even seize opportunities for effective counterattacks, forcing the opponent to expend more of their quota on defense!
