Chapter 1661: Chapter 532: As Long as You Don’t Compare, You Won’t Get Discouraged!
Another claw gently caressed the injured shoulder. Although the injury looked terrifying, for the giant dragon, it was nothing. In this brief moment, the dragon’s formidable self-healing ability had already begun rapid repairs.
Even without deliberate defense, as a giant dragon known for its physical prowess, coupled with its scale-covered body, its defense was not weak compared to martial artists of the same tier.
The fact that his defense was penetrated so easily indicated that this tree-man possessed power on par with his own.
Moreover, judging by the fact that a casual strike couldn’t breach its defense, this tree-man had formidable physical defenses as well.
At the very least, it had truly reached the level of a seventh-rank transcendent.
This plant truly had the power to engage with him as an equal!
It wasn’t just the physical challenge, but also the psychological impact!
Although he had the confidence to eventually eliminate this plant with his current power, this was just one member of the plant legion!
Even if it was one of the stronger elite individuals, it was still just a part of Fan Mao’s plant legion, much like the mechanical units of other Mechanical Masters!
It was like putting in all his effort to get a score, only to find that adding up all his scores barely surpassed one subject of the opponent.
Even if that was the opponent’s highest-scoring subject, it was just one of the subjects, and the gap was quite disheartening.
"What exactly has Fan Mao created with this horde of monsters?
How did she achieve this, did she really sacrifice a group of seventh-rank martial artists to create this array of plants..."
The dragon muttered to himself through gritted teeth, as this was the only way he could convince himself.
Otherwise, he couldn’t comprehend how these plants were cultivated to have the power of a genuine seventh rank.
Additionally, it wasn’t just about the tree-man’s power, but also its combat methods.
Even believing in [Longevity], dragons with strong self-healing strategies haven’t witnessed such a crazy fighting style.
It’s like they’re unafraid of death, unaware of pain, only intent on fighting without reason, like a fighting machine...
A description flashed in the dragon’s mind, making him pause and fall silent.
This seemed to indeed be the most fitting description.
No, it shouldn’t be a description, it’s exactly that!
Even though rationally understanding these were just plants acting as a "mechanical force", the tree-man’s demonstrated combat power was too overwhelming, making him subconsciously treat the tree-man as a typical enemy.
But upon realizing the tree-man was just an unconscious "mechanical force", the dragon felt even more burdened.
Yet even if the target’s power exceeded expectations, the battle still had to continue.
"Although your power is indeed formidable, in the end, you’re just an ordinary plant!"
The dragon said with confidence. In this brief period, he had already figured it out.
After accepting the scenario of being at the table with Fan Mao’s plant legion, setting his opponent as the tree-man itself, the pressure in his heart vanished.
The opponent was indeed much stronger than expected, but it was still just an amplified plant.
Realizing this, the enemy no longer seemed as terrifying.
As long as I don’t compare, I won’t be demoralized!
Feeling that his wounds had healed completely, the tree-man opposite also appeared to have finished self-healing.
As though in agreement, the tree-man and the dragon almost simultaneously launched a second charge, clashing once more.
The melee combat swiftly confirmed the seventh-rank dragon’s suspicions.
Even though its strength was indeed much greater, initially giving him quite the scare, treating it as a truly comparable enemy made it easy to spot the plant’s discrepancies.
Aside from having a physique like a martial artist, it lacked the various abilities a martial artist should possess.
Like an iron rod, although made of the same material as an iron sword, it couldn’t be equated.
After finding the right approach, the battle returned to equilibrium.
Not only he but the other seventh-rank believers alongside him also quickly discovered the problems amidst early chaos, realizing these extraordinary plants were not as formidable as expected.
Engaged once more with extraordinary plant adversaries, they gradually gained the upper hand.
Meanwhile, unbeknownst to these high-level believers, amidst the intense battle, streams of detailed data fed continuously to Bai Yi.
In the midst of the chaotic battle between the insect swarm and the plant legion, Bai Yi separated several brain threads to receive the external plant legion’s combat data, the smile unwavering.
"Indeed, utilizing Life Enhancement Spell to amplify strength, optimizing the biological structure of these plants enhanced their physical prowess, capable of purely elevating to the seventh-rank level.
But this amplification is too pure, achieving success only in the physical aspect, lacking combat techniques to match.
At high tiers, even martial artists need to blend magic power to acquire adequate combat strength.
Without the corresponding magic power application, no matter how powerful a purely physical form becomes, it ultimately only extends its endurance in battle.
True testing through real combat unveils the most authentic data!"
Though the plant legion outside was now at a disadvantage, Bai Yi looked at the data with more delight compared to capturing the insect clan.
Capturing the Insect Clan was just work, whereas these data were her life.
To Bai Yi, the combat data returned by the plant legion were equally invaluable compared to capturing the Insect Clan!
