Chapter 136: Chapter 106: The Strike of 260,000 Strength!_2
“After fighting with you, I have absorbed centuries of starlight and grown to the formidable realm I am in now!”
Jiang Chen heard the words of the Transcender and had an epiphany.
These Abyss overlords, almost every one of them possesses abilities related to growth and continues to grow over time.
Left in a normal abyss, their growth rate is not considered fast.
Compared to mecha pilots, it could even be said to be incredibly slow.
But…
If, during the creation of the Age-Old Shadow, an adjustment in time is made, to directly accelerate for a period of time,
naturally, they can exhibit a stronger stance and power.
“I originally thought that Endless Difficulty was just simple numerical enhancement…”
“Now it seems to be a bit more complex.”
Jiang Chen looked at the Transcender in front of him, his expression serious.
You see, time brings not only attributes.
Having grown for so long, the Transcender must have obtained even more powerful abilities!
As expected, when the Transcender saw a familiar foe, its mouth split into a ferocious grin.
“To pilot two such powerful Mechas and come back to challenge me in just a few days…”
“Your growth rate far exceeds my imagination, you truly are the strongest individual I’ve ever seen.”
“But unfortunately, the strongest weapon I possess is time!”
“Let me show you the new stance I’ve realized after these long years!”
Roots twisted, rapidly splitting and recombining.
The Transcender’s size did not increase any further, but instead rapidly condensed and shrank into a human appearance less than two meters tall.
A pair of green wings unfolded behind it, its demeanor incredibly arrogant.
“This is the strongest stance that I’ve realized!”
The Transcender swung its fist at the air nonchalantly, creating a pressure that turned into a gale sweeping across the ground.
It was showcasing its martial might in this manner!
Jiang Chen also judged its strength through this display.
60,000 force…
Nearly a fifth improvement?
The number was indeed exaggerated.
After all, when Jiang Chen entered the Star of Mutation at Endless Difficulty Level, his attributes were not even 40,000.
Even if he activated burst mode with 80,000 force agility, it wouldn’t be enough to overwhelm the Transcender, but would instead significantly consume his own physical strength and Life Force, causing more harm than good.
Clearly, Endless Difficulty was not a place to be casually conquered.
Even the most hopeful of individuals had to be well prepared to overcome an Abyss overlord and claim the reward.
However…
Attributes are attributes.
“Master Chao, is this the strongest stance you’ve realized?”
“Why does it look so much like me?”
“Could it be that you’ve spent hundreds of years studying my body template?”
“…Heh, what if I have?”
In response to Jiang Chen’s questioning, the Transcender sneered.
It spread its arms, bathed in sunlight.
“You can steal my power, and naturally, I can mimic yours!”
“Moreover, with the addition of countless genes from this planet, the power I’ve copied is far more perfect and powerful than you yourself!”
“To learn from you, to surpass you!”
“I am the invincible Transcender!”
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but laugh.
His muscles began to bulge, his body grew, and in the astonished expression of the Transcender, he became a muscular giant more than three meters tall.
His right hand touched the Abyss Rune, and a well-defined metal gauntlet covered his fists, looking all the more threatening.
His smile too appeared ferocious.
“Well then…”
“It seems you still have a lot to learn.”
Jiang Chen lifted his left fist, slightly curling his fingers.
Gravity Iron Fists-Traction!
The Transcender felt a powerful force suddenly pull it forward, flying towards Jiang Chen at great speed!
What is this thing?!
As the Transcender, in shock, tried to break free from this force,
Jiang Chen powered up his right fist and along its trajectory, unleashed a blow.
Gravity Iron Fists-Super Heavy!
3rd Rank-Full Power Burst!
Basic 51,200 force+Overload Release 60,000 force+Super Heavy Mode 100,000 force+Weapons Master 50,000 force.
This was a strike of 262,000 force!
“Promise me, don’t die.”
Facing a fist as large as a clay pot, the Transcender with an ordinary human’s physique started to twist from the head down, its roots distorting, shattering, breaking apart…
Time seemed to pause for an instant.
The air heated up rapidly due to the extreme compression and the next moment, exploded with a boom!
Jiang Chen actually managed to create an explosion of flames with a high-speed punch!
The Transcender, along with its entire Life Force Core, was blown to bits!
In the instant of its death,
the Roots Giant Tree took effect, surging star energy poured out, rapidly reshaping the Transcender’s entire core.
After the moment had passed, the Transcender returned to its peak condition.
However, before it could take any action, it felt the familiar pull and was drawn towards Jiang Chen’s fist again.
Gravity Iron Fists-Traction!
Gravity Iron Fists-Super Heavy!
Stage 3, full power unleashed!
It was like a classic replay, facing a 262,000 force strike, the Transcender was directly exploded by a punch!
The Roots Giant Tree took effect once more, gushing out a massive amount of star energy to reshape the Transcender.
However, just like the Land without Light, the star energy accumulated by the roots is not endless.
Even in the Land of Eternal Day, after continuously consuming large amounts of star energy, there is still a need for time to replenish.
Without the proper time to replenish, the Land of Eternal Day is no different from the Land without Light.
Like now.
The Transcender was continuously exploded and the regenerating energy clearly began to fail in keeping up.
When resurrected the second time, only half a Life Force Core was reshaped.
Jiang Chen wouldn’t give it the chance to catch its breath.
He beckoned with his finger and began the third, fourth…
Until the seventh heavy strike!
“Impossible…”
The Transcender’s gaze turned desperate as it was shattered by the punch.
This time, the energy released by the Roots Giant Tree was finally exhausted, unable even to reshape a single Life Force Core.
Its resurrection failed, and it entered a state of complete death.
With the abyss atmosphere flowing into Jiang Chen’s palm, the roots that spread across the entire planet rapidly withered and turned to ash.
“Phew… It’s no wonder Master Chao endured seven punches.”
Jiang Chen quickly returned to his normal size and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This set of punches had a very high physical output, arguably the strongest strike at the current stage.
The downside is the enormous physical energy consumption.
As an external equipment, the energy consumption of [Gravity Metal Fist] is much higher than [Touch of Extreme Cold].
Combined with the full-power stance, it resulted in the consumption of a tremendous amount of physical energy.
Jiang Chen could swing a maximum of ten punches before depleting all his strength and entering a weakened rest state.
Master Chao managed to hold on until the seventh punch, which was rather impressive.
Frankly, if it hadn’t mimicked Jiang Chen’s body posture and shrunk to just the right size to be exploded by a punch,
Jiang Chen might not have been able to kill it completely with ten punches.
Of course, if that had been the case, Jiang Chen wouldn’t have resorted to such a brutal method.
Instead, he would have tried a different strategy.
With his attributes laid out, he could easily clear the stage regardless, just that it would take a bit more time.
“Master Chao, you still have so much to learn!”
