Vol 2 Chapter 105: Unscathed
A Beast Tar who knew Buddhist techniques and chanized arts, yet had never actually been seen taming a beast!
This was the thought running through the minds of every cultivator present.
However, Lin Jing strongly disagreed with that sentint.
Strictly speaking, he wasn’t actually the pilot of the Mosquito-Powered ch.
He had rely assembled the machine using chanized techniques, but he couldn’t control it himself.
The real pilot was Pine Leaf Mouse.
So, in essence, he was still taming a beast—it was just that his beast was piloting the ch!
Of course, so refused to acknowledge that this ch was a chanized construct at all.
High-level chanized constructs always contained a Soul Core, allowing a chanist to control them with their spirit.
For example, Mo Qianyi’s Celestial Shot Chariot contained a Soul Core, which she linked to her Exquisite Heart, allowing her to directly manipulate its transformations.
This was sowhat similar to how a cultivator refined and activated a magic artifact, but instead of channeling Qi, a chanist controlled it with their spirit.
But this massive ch had no Soul Core—so to Yan Xiangbei, it couldn’t possibly be a chanized construct.
Lin Jing, however, disagreed.
After all, Pine Leaf Mouse was controlling the ch through its spirit, much like how it controlled Red Flying Leaves.
Its connection to the ch’s wooden components was entirely spiritual.
If controlling a machine with one's spirit was the defining characteristic of chanized constructs…
Then why wasn’t this ch considered one?!
"Take this!"
Zzzzzzzzzt!!!
Up until now, the Mosquito-Powered ch had only passively defended and counterattacked.
But now, as its power surged to full capacity, a massive blood-colored longsword materialized in its hand.
A weapon forged entirely from blood essence!
The thirty-ter-long blood blade sliced through the air, slashing toward Yan Xiangbei!
Faced with this terrifying attack, Yan Xiangbei reacted instantly, summoning a mid-grade magic artifact—a miniature gate-shaped talisman.
Fueled by his Divine Physique, the tiny gate expanded, forming three layers of phantom barriers in front of him.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The blood sword struck, tearing through the first barrier… then the second… and finally shattered the third, sending Yan Xiangbei flying backward.
As he crashed onto the platform, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"One attack… it took three layers of my defenses to finally stop it?!"
"This level of blood essence power surpasses ordinary Core Formation body cultivators. And the worst part… its blood energy isn’t depleting at all!"
Clutching his chest, Yan Xiangbei retrieved his gate-shaped talisman and decided to switch to offense.
With a flick of his wrist, he summoned a mid-grade flying sword.
"Go!"
Yan Xiangbei ford a hand seal, and the flying sword shot toward the ch’s chest.
But then—
The Mosquito-Powered ch’s mouth suddenly opened.
A violent gust of blood energy surged forth, filling the air with a nauseating crimson mist.
The flying sword’s montum slowed imdiately, then was blown back, forcing Yan Xiangbei to recall it.
"What the hell is this thing?!"
Even with his Divine Physique, he still couldn’t enhance his mid-grade artifacts to match the sheer power of the ch!
The pressure was imnse.
The audience had fallen into complete silence, their gazes fixed on the tiny creature piloting the massive ch.
"How dare you!!"
Yan Xiangbei’s eyes narrowed as his instincts scread danger.
At that mont, to everyone’s shock—
The Mosquito-Powered ch… self-destructed.
Because what kind of ch wouldn’t have a self-destruct system?!
BOOOOOM!!!
A monstrous crimson explosion engulfed the entire battle platform.
By the ti the smoke cleared, Lin Jing and Pine Leaf Mouse were already hovering high above the battlefield, gazing down at the massive, fiery explosion below.
A single red leaf had carried them into the sky at the perfect mont.
The audience was stunned.
Even the high-altitude wind currents were twisting under the sheer force of the explosion.
"Well… I’d say that counts as defeating a powerful opponent without taking any damage."
High above the battlefield, Lin Jing’s hair flowed in the wind as he calmly observed the aftermath.
Pine Leaf Mouse wiped the sweat from its forehead, looking exhausted.
Yep, totally unscathed.
Except… the ch died a very tragic death.
