Chapter 1187: Chapter 859: Such a big gap?
The blood-red beads in the built-in space disappeared, replenishing Zheng Yichen’s consumed Essence of Life, quickly restoring his stamina and strength.
Previously, without many skills, the Essence of Life collected by Zheng Yichen could only be stored inside the body, a storage method that would cause the overflow Life Force to slowly drain away, resulting in waste.
Now, the Essence of Life can be stored externally for as long as desired.
Judging from the power displayed by the Ancient Venerable, those demonic sects and heretics who perished truly contributed to this world.
After recovering his state, Zheng Yichen continued to maintain his rampaging ethereal state, and compared to the metamorphosed body and Vajra Body, besides being light and agile, the biggest advantage was that this form would not be broken.
Unlike the Vajra Body, which, once broken, essentially meant temporary power failure, requiring repair to resume the Vajra Body, while the metamorphosed body didn’t have this condition.
Since the metamorphosed body doesn’t have this condition, being hit in this state could actually result in immediate death, whereas the Vajra Body, when being broken, could still fully withstand the enemy’s attack.
Fortunately, he didn’t use the Vajra Body; otherwise, it would have shattered under the initial attacks.
Zheng Yichen glanced at the rectangular wound left on the Ancient Venerable’s arm—a wound he deliberately carved out, crucial for his subsequent action.
"Isn’t this the current Holy Emperor?" Zheng Yichen noticed a figure appearing, revealing a somewhat ferocious smile. Previously, Lilith had analyzed the environment, sensing something hidden.
Under the terrain-preserving attack effects from the Ancient Venerable, those people could no longer hide and were forced to reveal themselves in the Fantasy Great Array Formation.
Led by Li Changsheng, the Fantasy Great Array Formation concealed and made the real appear false, rendering attacks on their hiding spot useless.
Unless it was an attack like the one just made by the Ancient Venerable.
Li Changsheng never imagined the Ancient Venerable would use such an intense attack, directly exposing their whereabouts, and during the bombardment, a few remaining True Immortals were also lost.
Cursed by the Ancient Venerable, has their fortune declined this much? The idea flashed through Li Changsheng’s mind, but was quickly dismissed.
Attempting to seize control of the Ancient Venerable for eternal foundations was already defying the heavens.
Given that’s the case, discussing fortune was meaningless.
The good news was the arriving Proxy Agent was truly formidable, capable of confronting the ominously manifested remnants of the Ancient Venerable. The bad news was their whereabouts were exposed, adding numerous variables to their plans.
If they weren’t trapped, unable to leave the Ancient Immortal Mountain, they would have left rather than watching the battle. Legs on their body allowed departure, but leaving would mean losing all suppression against the curses on them.
They’d also turn ominous instantly, affecting their family.
No matter how intense the battle grew, they could only watch, endure, seeking opportunities when the Ancient Venerable’s remnants weakened.
Zheng Yichen struck where the Fantasy Great Array Formation vanished, his attack cutting a deep mark into the ground without affecting anything present.
With such a sophisticated concealment, Zheng Yichen could let Lilith attempt a solution, but at this moment, more seals on the Ancient Venerable broke again.
Zheng Yichen understood, casting a terrifying glance at where he attacked moments ago.
His figure vanished, reappearing at the rectangular wound on the Ancient Venerable’s arm, placing his hand on it. Witnessing the scene of cataclysm caused by the Ancient Venerable’s movement, he saw the celestial phenomena of earth and sky rupturing.
Within the phenomenon, he endured the impact of heaven and earth collapsing.
Earth Devouring... Activate!
The cracking sound emerged, further collapsing and melting the broken mountain and earth veins on the Ancient Venerable’s arm, exposing muscles with magma blood flowing.
Enduring the stinging pain in his eyes, Zheng Yichen used Life Perception and thermal vision to observe the Ancient Venerable’s state.
With the thick skin capable of supporting heaven and earth gone, his thermal vision could now take effect, and Life Perception became somewhat useful.
Within the vast sources of heat, he saw brighter, finer tributaries, resembling strands of hair in a river.
Magma blood dripped from the Ancient Venerable’s wound, but those tiny tributaries clung firmly to the Ancient Venerable’s body.
Only these minuscule tributaries were hidden too deeply to be easily touched.
The phenomenon reappeared as Zheng Yichen saw the descending meteorite, using the power acquired from stripping the Ancient Venerable’s skin through Earth Devouring, the falling meteorite was swept away by the black Demonic Abyss Deluge.
Zheng Yichen exhaled, as expected...
The Ancient Venerable’s attack featured phenomenon effects, and within this independently manifested phenomenon, the attack’s intensity could even breach the limits of the native world’s ceiling.
As long as he can seize the opportunity, breaking through the move when the Ancient Venerable attacks, he can also use this phenomenon to temporarily break through his own attack limit.
As for whether this behavior counts as a loophole, it might be because the Ancient Venerable is not in a complete state, hence such a loophole exists; or it might have been this way from the start.
According to the legends of this world, the Ancient Venerable is originally a pinnacle village, so even if there are phenomena that exceed the independent environment, there might still be nothing that can surpass the Ancient Venerable within it.
An independently manifested phenomenon is fundamentally not a Divine Domain, but somewhat resembles it; such an attack considers an independent environment like the Divine Domain as a consumable.
Like those colorless little crystal blocks in a certain game, indispensable for releasing advanced skills.
For others, being able to master a Divine Domain is already amazing, but the Ancient Venerable uses the Divine Domain like a colorless little crystal block, which Zheng Yichen himself envies, very much wanting to learn this.
But the opportunity to learn right now is those minor tributaries.
Blood Extraction is of no use to magma blood; absorbing it would only cause discomfort, whereas those minor tributaries might not be the same.
Using the form of breaking moves to leverage the Ancient Venerable’s attack, Zheng Yichen slashed the earth brimming with magma; the magma was split in two, and for Zheng Yichen, the skin of the Ancient Venerable was easy to break through, while the muscles turned directly from earth into steel.
The giant saber in his hand shattered directly, exposing the core of the fishing rod. The severed skin spurted out a torrent of searing flame, and Zheng Yichen’s expression was somewhat ferocious, rushing in through the gap against the flame.
In combating such a giant, to gamble small for large must be done like this, unless his attack could truly cut the heavens and split the earth.
Achieving that is not impossible; as long as enough earth is cut away, and the skin of the Ancient Venerable can also be cut away as earth, transforming into power he can use.
But such attack opportunities are limited, and Zheng Yichen does not want to waste them here.
Inside the arm of the Ancient Venerable, the omnipresent pressure crushed him, and the environment around Zheng Yichen also changed, as though he were inside the core of the earth.
Inside, Zheng Yichen’s eyes, glowing red, stared fixedly at a hair-thin tributary.
When observed from the outside, the minor tributaries seemed like strands of hair in a river, but upon rushing in, the minor tributaries turned into streams of the vast sea.
The Essence of Life burned furiously amidst the surrounding pressure, and the newly unfolding Divine Domain was immediately crushed by the phenomenon from the Ancient Venerable.
By the time Zheng Yichen got close to the nearest tributary, he had already used the Life Archive more than a hundred times, and the equipment on him, despite being greatly enhanced, couldn’t withstand the crushing power of the Ancient Venerable.
Bang—an invisible barrier was hit head-on by Zheng Yichen, making him feel a bit dizzy, causing a slight pause, during which a wave of flame swept over.
It wiped out most of his flesh and blood, but in the read archive of the Life Archive, the erased flesh and blood were restored.
Clenching his teeth, Zheng Yichen swung the fishing rod in his hand, infused with the blood-red power of Oblivion, at the front. A black crack appeared before his eyes. Without any hesitation, the second hit shattered the black crack completely.
At that moment, Zheng Yichen was fully exposed to the void of nothingness, with the feeling of suffocation pressing in from all sides. Without hesitation, Zheng Yichen swung his weapon, and Oblivion sliced through the darkness.
Zheng Yichen reached out and grabbed the extremely bright minor tributary in his sight; the surrounding phenomena trembled, undergoing rapid changes of eternity, and the heavy pressure quickly disappeared.
The surrounding environment returned to normal; Zheng Yichen was suspended in mid-air, with nothing in his clenched fist. Around him, a cliff was visible, and a large amount of magma flowed from the edge of the cliff, plunging into the abyss below.
From the void beneath him, Zheng Yichen saw a section of abnormally thick bone, yellowish earth and gray in color, still differing from an ordinary arm bone.
"?" Without any hesitation, Zheng Yichen swiftly escaped the void before the meteorite from the sky crashed down, glancing at his own palm.
Now he also felt as if he were burning, not like before when he drank magma, but: "Hahahaha, this is exciting!"
The absorbed minor tributary did not replenish much of the exhausted Essence of Life for Zheng Yichen, but the feedback it provided was completely different; regarding the Performance Coefficient, he felt a long-missing surge.
Beyond that was an entirely new sensation, as if using the Divine Domain no longer required the usual operational procedures.
Wielding the fishing rod in his hand, Zheng Yichen’s body quickly enlarged during the attack, as though using the Law of Heaven and Earth.
In the phenomenon created by the attack, Zheng Yichen’s body seemed to rival the Ancient Venerable.
But the actual result was that Zheng Yichen’s attack phenomenon was shattered upon contact, and as the Ancient Venerable’s fist smashed down, accompanied by the impact of a star explosion phenomenon, Zheng Yichen’s Law of Heaven and Earth was blown apart; his figure shrunken compared to the Ancient Venerable was sent flying, as if flicking a hair strand.
He crashed deep into the Ancient Immortal Mountain.
At that instant, the small white dragon and Liu Hongzhao in the built-in space felt their hearts tighten.
Deep beneath the Ancient Immortal Mountain, a subtle cracking sound echoed, and Zheng Yichen tore off the exuvia from his body, swiftly leaping out of the deep pit, before a column of flame erupted.
"...Is the gap really this big???"
