Chapter 1069: Chapter 782: It’s Okay if It’s Broken_2

"So, the value of this thing is just like that?" Zheng Yichen didn’t feel disappointed. He hadn’t encountered the Power of Destiny before, but he understood Du Gang’s description.

Unless one’s raw strength and the Power of Destiny they use are strong enough, facing powerful opponents would be the only way to make it effective. Otherwise, it’s mostly the type that bullies the weak but fears the strong.

It’s not that this power is too weak or extreme—it’s only when consciously exploited by someone that it turns out this way. It gives off a vibe of staring into the Abyss, while the Abyss stares back at you.

Those who toy with fate will ultimately be toyed with by fate.

"Ha, well, it’s still a treasure, isn’t it? Look at the warning effect on my saber; it comes from an enhancement material infused with the Power of Destiny. Using it without directly interfering with someone’s fate is actually pretty decent."

Lilith asked from the side, "But if a Boundary Breaker gets exposed because of this kind of thing, wouldn’t that count as altering their fate?"

Du Gang chuckled and nodded, "That’s true, but at that moment, it’s not the weapon deciding their fate—it’s me. That also involves a kind of confrontation. But since I’m stronger than them, I can determine their fate. On the other hand, if an ordinary person wields the God Shocking Saber, they might end up being harmed instead."

After saying this, Du Gang paused briefly. "So, even a little bit of the Power of Destiny carries an undeniable factor. Even I cannot ignore it."

Who’s to say the God Shocking Saber in his hand won’t someday warn him about an ancient Boundary Breaker? Someone who might not have noticed him initially but became aware due to the warning—it would lead to his exposure. Not to mention, the other party could possess the strength to kill him...

Though the likelihood of this is low, it’s definitely not zero. And the detection enhancement of the God Shocking Saber amplifies this probability, given that the enhancement material used here is the Power of Destiny.

"Uncontrolled, freely operating Power of Destiny is the strongest. Hmm... Since this ball has been constructed like this, it’s probably meant for observation, right? Do you know how to use prophecy-related methods?"

Zheng Yichen shook his head. "Although I know a lot, this is something I truly don’t know."

Prophesying and the like—that type of power might not necessarily integrate into one’s physical constitution. If it can’t integrate, even though he may have killed someone with such power before, he wouldn’t be able to obtain the related characteristics.

As for predictive abilities, so far, he hasn’t acquired them either.

"Then this thing isn’t all that practical. Hmm... But it might still be worth experimenting with by infusing some level of energy into it, allowing it to freely exhibit its effects."

Du Gang thought for a moment and proposed a simple method. Items like the Crystal Ball, which involve the Power of Destiny, typically have only a few possible effects—observation, prediction, and remote interference with someone else’s fate.

"I do know some knowledge about the ’Great Prophecy Technique.’" At this point, Tanshia Firlo commented from the side. She tapped her temple lightly. "The Dragon Tribe’s inherited memories are quite comprehensive, you know."

"The Great Prophecy Technique, huh? Let me think... Yeah, I’ve visited a world with special abilities, and methods like that were similar to Word Spirit." Du Gang said, showing a trace of regret.

"Word Spirit—it can split mountains and divide oceans... but it became my enemy. He died from backlash." Du Gang paused briefly, his expression becoming slightly peculiar. "That Special Ability User had been recruited by Boundary Breakers. Eager to prove himself, he aimed to eliminate me with Word Spirit and even made plenty of preparations for it."

Zheng Yichen was intrigued and immediately poured Du Gang a drink. "Let’s hear the details."

"Hahaha, that’s pretty much it. The guy could use Word Spirit to materialize spoken desires and even help others achieve their verbal needs. However, he relied too heavily on his power. He gathered a group of Boundary Breakers, attempting a unified, super-powered Word Spirit."

But he was overly confident and didn’t consider the limits of his own power and resilience. The Word Spirit activated and targeted me, but when it took effect, I didn’t die—he succumbed first, killed by the strain of maintaining it."

Du Gang rubbed his chin and continued, "That power was undeniably strong; the guy’s strength wasn’t bad. Even during the backlash, he had approximately two seconds of immunity. If, in that timeframe, Word Spirit had killed me, then he would’ve been fine. But I endured eight seconds and only suffered minor injuries, so he died."

Zheng Yichen was somewhat dumbfounded. "Does this count as comedic?"

Du Gang’s expression became slightly more serious. "Not at all. In those eight seconds, I experienced numerous fatal conditions—cardiac arrest, ruptured spleen, reverse blood flow, cerebral hemorrhage, and so on."

"But were those conditions effective against you?" Zheng Yichen asked. He was well aware of Du Gang’s Vajra Body’s power, which was formidable not only externally but internally as well.

"Of course not." Du Gang replied calmly. When his Vajra Body is active, his heart could contend against diamond-tipped drills. Cardiac arrest? Let it stop for a while—it’s no big deal.

Reverse blood flow? Eh... doesn’t really feel like anything. Cerebral hemorrhage? That’s even less of a problem. As for a ruptured spleen? If it doesn’t rupture, isn’t everything fine?

Du Gang didn’t even bother mentioning fatal effects like muscle tears—but he had to admit that the Word Spirit was still somewhat capable. The unified effort of multiple Boundary Breakers’ Word Spirit managed to cause him minor injuries within eight seconds.

Given eight extra seconds, his Vajra Body might’ve been broken. If it were shattered and the opponent could still endure an additional two seconds, Du Gang estimated that he’d have met death for the first time.
