The engineers couldn’t discern any problem, so they continued to monitor the combat situation over at Zheng Yichen’s side, where the intensity between the 5.0 Terminal ch and Zheng Yichen was escalating.
What Zheng Yichen displayed in Oblivion manifested in quality, whereas the Terminal ch exhibited Oblivion force in quantity. As the two clashed, Zheng Yichen’s part was like a ship on a raging ocean.
This sturdy ship navigated through the wind and waves, confronting the tempest head-on.
The speed of the Terminal ch was always just a hair slower than Zheng Yichen, and this slight difference translated into an absolute gap.
"Still not enough?" The engineers observing the battle were sowhat disappointed. They had reviewed the paraters of Terminal ch, which had been refined for speed as much as possible.
But compared to Zheng Yichen, it still wasn’t enough. In terms of strength, the Terminal ch might hold the advantage, but the difference caused by such a speed gap was quite frustrating.
The engineers were rely disappointed, but those in the Developnt Departnt were sowhat disheartened.
"Is he teasing us again?!" One engineer from the Developnt Departnt wanted to slam the table. Since giving up on the City of Machines last ti, they’ve wanted to redeem themselves.
The painstakingly developed Terminal ch was supposed to demonstrate their abilities. However, from the first version until now, the Terminal ch had undergone extensive optimizations, but in terms of speed, it never managed to surpass Zheng Yichen.
According to their analyses, Zheng Yichen’s Parallel Unification could only stack strength, defense, etc., with no change in speed, aning that Zheng Yichen’s ability to outpace the Terminal ch was always due to his ’normal’ speed.
Once or twice being just a hair faster was understandable. But this many tis? Isn’t he toying with them?
"You can’t really call it teasing, can you? This mode of always being just a bit faster makes it harder for us to gauge his limits." Another engineer pondered aloud.
The Terminal ch had already adjusted its output mode several tis based on Zheng Yichen’s performance, even exhibiting wildly fluctuating bursts of speed.
These bursts even utilized the Power of Destiny, with the Terminal ch also benefiting from the World’s Will, granting it unique advantages in using Destiny force.
The Destiny-induced speed bursts occasionally gave the Terminal ch extraordinary speed, but this was still within Zheng Yichen’s capacity to handle.
Zheng Yichen’s physical performance seed abnormal, exceeding the information limits they had collected, as if he had found a way to break through his bodily constraints.
Crack—
The two Oblivion forces collided, and Zheng Yichen’s higher-quality Oblivion force crushed the power shrouding the Terminal ch, its sturdy chanical arms deforming and breaking under his grasp.
Zheng Yichen violently tore off the Terminal ch’s arm.
chanical tendrils erged from the Terminal ch’s severed arm, but before they could touch Zheng Yichen, he evaded them.
Currently, he was not relying on the disequilibrium between Oblivion and Life Creation, but rather the imbalance between life and death!
He possessed both Life Force and Power of Death. By infusing Death Power into his body, he attained a State of Balance where life-dominant disequilibrium directly allowed him to break through his physical shackles.
Consequently, the Burst Mode he had mastered also underwent new changes, with the scarlet aura covering his body now beyond the confines of a gas mbrane, resembling so turbulent flowing substance.
Under the isolation of this turbulent substance, Zheng Yichen felt as if he were in a unique state of closure, as though clad in special armor, yet this armor was neither heavy nor hindered his outward observational insight.
Moreover, this layer of turbulent substance provided an additional perception to Zheng Yichen, allowing any touch against it to transmit sensations beyond skin contact to his body.
This was one reason Zheng Yichen could precisely respond to the Terminal ch’s abrupt speed bursts.
Grabbing onto the erging tendrils of the Terminal ch, Zheng Yichen kicked violently at its body, and the heavy impact sent the Terminal ch crashing down onto the ground, the resulting fissures rapidly spreading a thousand miles.
Throughout the process, the entire ground felt as if a carpet had been swung. Zheng Yichen smirked; his attack wasn’t dispersed like that.
The attack that made the Terminal ch crash into the ground at most affected only a one or two kiloter range. For high-defense entities like this, the attack should be concentrated.
The extent of the shockwave’s spread was due to the Terminal ch redirecting Zheng Yichen’s attack, dispersing the erupting force across the earth, resulting in such an exaggerated shockwave range.
Ideally, Zheng Yichen wished his attack’s aftershock would behave like in low-environnt combat, where one could strike as if painting a picture, applicable even in a high-environnt setting.
Reaching such a level is far more challenging than its application in a low atmosphere.
The power limit in high environnts is too high; even slight exertion can easily impact the environnt with the attack.
To achieve combat at his level, where one can strike as if painting a picture, he must ensure every strike’s force is fully concentrated within the enemy’s ’external form’, without any leakage.
