Ordinarily, the Old Fist God wouldn't use sothing like the Current World Divine Seal, but that's just in general. If I were to battle under the premise that I would use the Doomsday Divine Seal, then his use of the Current World Divine Seal wouldn't be unjust.
The Old Fist God might enjoy the thrill of fighting a strong enemy, but perhaps only to an extent. If the enemy is rely several tis stronger, that falls within an enjoyable scope of life-and-death combat. Yet, if it's tens or hundreds of tis stronger, no matter how battle-crazed, one wouldn't find it acceptable. That's nothing but a one-sided slaughter that ends in an instant, where's the fun in that?
However, how is it that the Old Fist God can use the full power of the Current World Divine Seal? In my estimation, for him to forcibly use it without the Seal Authority, he'd first need to push open the Fourth Door. Could it be that he has already opened the Fourth Door?
"When fighting Liu Shuying, he asked what my wish was. After I told him, for so reason, he stopped using full force. To be precise, it seed he wanted a fair fight with , but no longer had the resolve to kill . That couldn't really be considered a battle with all his might." The Old Fist God looked at the Current World Divine Seal, "And ever since, its resistance toward has sohow lessened, allowing to fully wield its power now."
Hearing this, a suspicion rose in my mind.
Little Bowl seed to have thought of this as well, saying, "Could it be 'authorization'... like how I'm planning to give Brother Zhuang Cheng access to the Power of the Doomsday Divine Seal; could Liu Shuying have done sothing similar for the Old Fist God?"
Liu Shuying probably didn't directly give the Old Fist God authorization; otherwise, there wouldn't be a "not so intense resistance," there should be none at all.
However, as the Master of Divine Seal, Liu Shuying had a heartfelt intention to see the Old Fist God's wish co true.
He had ntioned that he could recall the Current World Divine Seal to his side with just a thought, only suppressed by the Old Fist God's power. Conversely, if Liu Shuying harbored a hope for the Current World Divine Seal to stay with and serve the Old Fist God, could it not make the seal inclined to assist him?
Little Bowl had previously suggested the possibility of the Old Fist God being able to use the full power of the Current World Divine Seal, though she didn't hit upon this conclusion precisely. Yet it seed she had so backup plans for the worst-case scenario.
"Brother Zhuang Cheng, I'll support you," Little Bowl said. "I've largely suppressed Tai Sui... Though it will take more ti to fully replace him, with my current Seal Authority, I should provide you around half the Power of the Doomsday Divine Seal...
"Please hold on with this power until I defeat Tai Sui! Afterward, I will be able to give you a hundred percent of the Doomsday Divine Seal's power, and you can duel the Old Fist God on equal terms!"
Honestly, even with the full power of the Doomsday Divine Seal, it might not be enough. When both sides are equal in external powers, what determines the victor is personal capability. And personally, I'm no match for the Old Fist God; my initial strategy no longer holds.
But there was no alternative now; I could only grit my teeth and fight. Half the power of the Doomsday Divine Seal against the full force of the Current World Divine Seal, and the opponent is the Old Fist God... As difficult as it may be, if only to prolong my survival, perhaps there's still so chance.
The Old Fist God, seemingly able to hear my conversation with Little Bowl, smiled nonchalantly.
"No need to be so wary, I won't use this."
With that, he tossed the Current World Divine Seal above his head, where the white seal disk, swirling with terrible power, hung in the air.
"This is a 'retreat'. Even if I died, I wouldn't use it, yet its re presence affects the purity of my thoughts," he said. "To , this battle is not only for enjoynt but also a pursuit of 'Great Renunciation'. Holding sothing vastly beyond , how can I 'seek within', what right do I have to speak of 'Great Renunciation'?
"Yet it would inevitably return to my side, perhaps because it could fulfill my future wish. Since that's the case, I'll find it another task."
He made a gesture, and the Current World Divine Seal sped toward Earth. Given our distance from Earth, not even the speed of light would reach it within a second, yet the Current World Divine Seal arrived instantly. A gray mist spread from it, covering Earth in an instant, along with the seal itself. Little Bowl could only manage half a syllable before the sound completely disappeared from my ears.
Then I used my Space Ability to reach Earth's boundary. The change was too rapid; I couldn't stop it. A massive wall of mist stood before , impenetrable by fla, cut off from the Earth's fires, preventing use of the Fla Transmission Skill to enter. Every connection seed blocked by a celestial level prison of gray mist.
"Now, I won't use the Current World Divine Seal, and you can't use the Doomsday Divine Seal either," the Old Fist God's voice ca from behind, "Conflicts of items lack soul; true combat is blow for blow. Let's have a battle between two people!"
With this voice, I turned back to see Old Fist God's iron fist already within arm's reach.
I imdiately retreated to gain distance, avoiding the blow. Old Fist God's relentless offensive resud, and the situation once again returned to the extre disadvantage it was before.
At this mont, I could no longer expect support from Little Bowl, and the chance for victory that was once within reach was rcilessly cut off. The fog wall encircling Earth, like a Dyson sphere in a science fiction story, surely wouldn't be dispelled until the battle ended. If I continued with my previous survival strategy, it would only turn from waiting for a chance for victory to a slow death. The shadow of death was unmistakably advancing towards .
"What's the matter, can you only dodge? Where did the montum you had when you defeated Dead Mountain Liangyi go? You can still beco stronger, right!?" Old Fist God roared with anticipation.
I can indeed continue to beco stronger, but that requires ti. Unlike the growth spurt when I just broke through, like climbing a mountain, my soul strength is now in a plateau period with an extrely slow growth rate.
From the stage of Impermanence, I was already able to consider myself an Immortal, but the actual age and my eternal theoretical lifespan were completely unmatched. In most battles with strong adversaries of the sa level, my disadvantage was caused by my excessive youth. If I fully utilized the traits of an Immortal, I wouldn't even need to live as long as Gua Tianshi and Xuanming. Just a few hundred more years, and I believe I could surpass Old Fist God in pure power strength.
The problem is, where do I have hundreds of years to slowly grow right now? Maybe in a few seconds, I could be killed.
As this thought arose, a large amount of Mana condensed again in my palm. This ti, what appeared was not orange-red fire, but pitch-black Solar Eclipse Fire. I compressed the black flas with all my might, and the flas themselves underwent a gravitational collapse, further increasing the density.
In an instant, the Solar Eclipse Sword, identical to when I killed Dead Mountain Liangyi, appeared in my hand again.
Since regular flas could be directly broken by Old Fist God due to possessing my ntal intent and structure, then I'll use the Solar Eclipse Fire, which inherently has overwhelming gravity. This innate gravity wouldn't showcase my subjective thoughts, and it also possesses objective density increases.
Of course, according to Old Fist God, everything has a death point, so maybe objective gravity also has a mysterious death point; and after all, the innate gravity of the Solar Eclipse Fire is derived from my Mana, so it's unclear if it truly lacks my subjective thoughts... But those things don't matter now. The key lies in whether I can strongly believe in my spontaneous assertion.
Since the death point observed by Old Fist God is essentially sothing he created using the Power of the Third Door, I have no reason why I can't use the Power of the Third Door to shield it.
To create the Solar Eclipse Sword, I had to slightly split my focus. Old Fist God seized this opportunity diligently, his fist attacking the side of my head like a hamr swing. I couldn't avoid this blow, only able to swing my sword at Old Fist God. Yet, I was still a step too slow, and my head was shattered by Old Fist God first.
The damage reduction effect brought by the Power of Manifestation seed to have been further conquered by Old Fist God's perception ability, and the actual damage of this blow nearly matched the Yin Yang Black and White Magic Power of Dead Mountain Liangyi. My True Spirit received a profound injury, my consciousness seemingly halting for a mont.
It was uncertain whether my slash hit, I even thought I was already dead. Imdiately afterward, a loud laugh echoed in my senses, stimulating and awakening my hazy and scattered consciousness.
"Hahaha... Good! Just like that! You should be like this!" the voice roared, jubilant, "Co again, Zhuang Cheng! You should be far beyond this level!"
I squeezed out power to restore my body and found myself blown far away again. Old Fist God was approaching rapidly in this direction. However, he arrived slightly later than I expected, and there was a bloody gash on his chest, faintly revealing white bones. It seed my attack had indeed caused him effective damage.
However, this level is still not enough. I instinctively judged that relying on this kind of attack to defeat Old Fist God would be impossible without accumulating two or three dozen tis. Truly, he's a character who battles with muscles, his body's durability exceeding the upper limit I achieve through stacking various abilities. And my current state might be so severely injured that it's affecting my power output.
Even so, I had no choice but to fight to the death. I once again gathered the dark Solar Eclipse Fla. Imdiately, an unusual phenonon appeared, instantly catching my attention.
Because it was so unreasonable, I montarily thought I was hallucinating.
The Solar Eclipse Fla I condensed this ti, its intensity not only didn't decrease... but was slightly stronger than before?
